While Ma Ke was flipping through the list of bidding companies in the registration materials, he gently tapped the coffee table with his hand and said: "Mayor Liu, I don't know if you noticed that in this bidding, our domestic venture capital companies only came We have five companies, but there are so many companies with foreign investment background. This situation is a bit unusual.”
Liu Qingyu asked: "Oh, why do you see it? Why is it unusual?"
Ma Ke said in a deep voice: "Mayor Liu, based on my understanding of the domestic venture capital field, our domestic venture capital companies still have a considerable quantity and quality. Under normal circumstances, with the size of our Luming City this time, There is definitely no problem with the intensity of publicity, but now it only reaches five companies, and most of these five companies are second-tier companies. There are only one or two real first-tier companies. I I think this situation is absolutely unusual. According to the way of thinking of our financial warriors, anything abnormal must be a monster. In other words, behind this public bidding, there must be an invisible behind-the-scenes hand controlling something secretly. In other words, the public bidding we are planning now is very likely to have become the target of secret manipulation by some people or certain forces. If we continue to operate according to this model, I am worried that the final public bidding result may not be the same. Just do what we want."
Speaking of this, Ma Ke pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Mayor Liu, I think we should temporarily stop this public bidding, or postpone it. It is best to find out why the domestic companies participating in the bidding are so... The bid will be re-opened after there are few reasons. Only in this way can the risk be minimized."
Liu Qingyu sighed and said: "Ma Ke, since you are engaged in finance, you should know that the current shipyard stocks cannot be suspended indefinitely. How long do you think the shipyard stocks can wait? I think, Maybe some domestic companies are unwilling to join our Luming City’s public financing due to one or another factor, but this does not affect our overall strategic plan of Luming City, because our goals are very clear. It is to raise funds to rescue shipyard stocks. As long as we can raise enough funds, it actually doesn’t matter whether the funds are Japanese-funded, American-funded or domestic. Let’s go and bid. Let’s see on site which companies have won the bid, now we don’t have long to wait.”
With that said, Liu Qingyu stood up, and Ma Ke could only smile bitterly and follow Liu Qingyu out.
In the Municipal Bidding Office, in the comprehensive bidding conference room, the bidding representatives of 19 companies walked up to the presidium one by one and submitted their sealed bidding documents to the notary. After being inspected by the notary, they were handed over to the host of the bidding company, and they were written in a long strip. After all the bidding companies have submitted their bidding documents, the host will be responsible for presiding over the public singing of the bids. Professionals will open the sealed documents one by one under the witness of the notary, and submit the bidding documents to each company. The amount of funds that the company intends to use as well as the core conditions in terms of income, time, supervision, etc. are all projected on the projection screen through the projector, so that people at the scene can clearly see it.
In the small conference room next to the comprehensive conference room, Liu Qingyu and Ma Ke were watching the bidding situation in the entire large conference room through the data sharing system and video surveillance system. Next to them, Yang Dezhi, director of the Municipal Bidding Office, He was sitting next to him, serving the two of them, constantly pouring water into their teacups, and running back and forth, looking very busy.
At the bidding site, as the bidding documents of each company were opened one by one, the bidding conditions and funds were gradually disclosed, and the atmosphere at the scene began to become tense.
Because in another space separated by only a screen, the 11 members of the professional bid evaluation committee are conducting a comprehensive evaluation of the various conditions of each bidding document that has just been announced in accordance with the bid evaluation rules. After each company's score is scored by the bid evaluation committee, the company's score and corresponding ranking will appear on the large screen at the site.
Time passed by, and the scores of the 19 bidding companies gradually came out.
Ranked first is a Japanese-funded company, Nissei Investment Development Co., Ltd., which plans to invest 12.8 billion yuan. Ranked second is a company with American-funded background, Medea Holding Group, which plans to invest 8.7 billion yuan. The third is a Singaporean company, Yifeng Holding Group, which plans to invest 7.6 billion yuan. The only domestic company in the top ten is a company called China Security Investment Co., Ltd., which plans to invest 3.6 billion yuan, ranking 5th.
After all the rankings were sorted out, it was soon time to announce the final list of winning bidders. According to the bidding rules, as long as the top three’s total investment exceeds 20 billion, the top three will be announced as the winning bidders. At this moment, the entire The venue suddenly became quiet, and everyone was waiting silently, because according to the arrangement of this bidding, the final winning bid list must be announced by Mayor Liu Qingyu himself.
At this moment, in the small conference room next door, after reading the entire bidding results, Ma Ke's face looked extremely gloomy.
Ma Ke pondered for a long time, suddenly raised his head and looked at Liu Qingyu and said: "Mayor Liu, I think the result of this bidding has a relatively large safety hazard for our rescue operation."
Liu Qingyu couldn't help but frown when he heard this: "There is a relatively large safety hazard, how can you see it?"
At this time, Yang Dezhi, director of the Municipal Tendering Office next to him, saw that half of the water in the two people's water glasses had been reduced. He immediately filled the water for the two of them very diligently, and then sat aside silently.
Ma Ke glanced at Yang Dezhi next to him and saw that Liu Qingyu had no intention of letting him go. He seemed to trust Yang Dezhi very much, so he didn't care about anything and directly expressed his opinion: "Mayor Liu, I I think you should know why we want to raise 20 billion yuan this time. We are doing it to save the market and to deal with the strong suppression of our shipyard stock by malicious short-selling forces. Who are the malicious short-selling forces? Until now, there have been many speculations among the public. However, according to my analysis, among these malicious short-selling forces, funds with Japanese background, American background, Hong Kong and Taiwanese background account for a considerable share, and there is also a considerable part of domestic funds. Taking the opportunity to cause chaos, intending to short A-shares, taking advantage of the opportunity to rise interests and even disrupt our financial system in China, because once the stock market is over, then our banking system will be strongly impacted, and once there is a problem in the banking system, then we may explode A large-scale economic crisis has occurred, and once the economic crisis comes, our reform and opening up process will be seriously hindered, affecting people's confidence in the country."
As soon as Ma Ke said this, Liu Qingyu asked directly: "Ma Ke, why do you say that funds with Japanese, American, Hong Kong and Taiwanese backgrounds account for a considerable share of the short-selling forces this time."
Ma Ke smiled and said: "Mayor Liu, this is very simple. First of all, according to the information I have, over the years, Japan has been using its strong economic strength and financial power to detour from China through Hong Kong and Taiwan. Incoming funds, therefore, some Hong Kong-funded and Taiwan-backed funds appear to be Hong Kong-funded and Taiwan-backed. In fact, behind these funds, it may be American capital or Japanese capital controlling the behind-the-scenes, and these funds have been controlled for many years. They have already penetrated into China through various channels and means, controlled some comprador institutions, and bundled the interests of both parties by forming a community of interests with these people. The fundamental purpose of these funds is to make money, and the core purpose is to provide Adding chaos to the anniversary of the Anti-Japanese War is to disrupt the pace of China's economic development."
Speaking of this, Ma Ke said in a low voice: "Mayor Liu, I believe that as the mayor, you must be aware of these things. Therefore, I think that now, if we announce that the Riqing Investment Development Co., Ltd. , Medea Holding Group and Yifeng Holding Group, if these three companies win our financing bid, I think it is no different from luring a wolf into the house, because first of all, although we are not sure whether these three companies have participated in this short-selling operation However, once they win the bid, it means that they can send people to supervise the entire flow of our funds, which means that it is very likely that all our trading actions will be exposed under their supervision. Next, we can make an assumption. If one or more of these three companies are related to malicious short-selling funds, then our trading behavior is likely to be known to them. In this case, How do we outmaneuver our opponents?”
Liu Qingyu smiled faintly: "Comrade Ma Ke, have you ever thought about it, assuming that the other party is really connected with malicious short-selling funds, are they willing to fight with their own funds? Logically speaking, this is Doesn't it work? Then we might as well reason in reverse. Since they provide funds, they must make money, so they must supervise the flow of funds. Therefore, from the principle of capital interests first, these bidders must It is impossible for a company to let its own funds fight with its own funds and end up losing more than it gains."
Speaking of this, Liu Qingyu continued: "One more thing, Comrade Ma Ke, I have to remind you that we are promoting this bidding to the world, and even today's bidding site was broadcast live to the world. Under the current situation, it is absolutely impossible for our Luming City to cancel the winning bid result without trusting our words. Doing so will bear political risks, so we, Luming City, must recognize this result."
"No, I don't agree." Ma Ke slapped the table angrily and shouted loudly.
At this moment, it was quiet outside, so people outside could hear some of Ma Ke's voice.
