Chapter 205 Boiled frogs in warm water (4100 words~~)
As soon as the Hong Kong stock market opened today, it aroused the attention of many people. When the market opened, the problem of poor management of Chen's Toys suddenly came out in Central. The words were stated in a clear and logical manner, but as soon as a caring person heard about it, he would know that these so-called inside information were just rumors.
It's just news and cannot be trusted at all.
In the past two years, with the surge in Hong Kong's stock market and the rise in the property market, Chen's Toys has done a lot of commendable business. It can definitely be regarded as an upstart in the Hong Kong stock market in the past two years. How could there be a sudden problem?
Chen's headquarters.
The founder of Chen's Toys, Chen Songtai, is currently sitting in his luxurious boss chair. Standing opposite is his secretary, who is talking about the rumors in Central this morning. Next to the secretary, sitting is his most important person.
Chen Wenlun, his cherished son.
"Alan, what do you think about this matter?" Chen Songtai asked Chen Wenlun after listening to the secretary's account.
Chen Wenlun supported himself with a calm look in his eyes, "In my opinion, someone should be deliberately driving down our company's stock price."
"So someone is deliberately targeting our Chen family?"
Chen Wenlun nodded: "I don't know if it's intentional, but there's one thing we should figure out first. Does the other party want to make a deal and leave? Or is he really interested in our Chen's toys?
"
"Are you saying that someone wants to take over our Chen family in a hostile manner?" Chen Songtai's eyes showed a sparkle. He founded Chen's toys by himself and no one is allowed to get involved.
"If there is a hostile takeover, they will definitely start with the company's major shareholders. Dad, I think you can contact the company's major shareholders first to see if anyone has been contacting them recently and wants what they have.
Shares!" Chen Wenlun said eloquently.
Then Chen Songtai picked up the phone on the table and the first one she called Chen Zengxi!
Although Chen Songtai and Chen Zengxi have the same surname, they are not related to each other. However, there have always been non-governmental organizations such as the Clan Association in Xiangjiang, and Chen Songtai and Chen Zengxi have always had a good relationship.
"....Okay, I understand. Thank you, Brother Chen, for playing golf when you have time!"
Chen Songtai hung up the phone with a gloomy expression, "You are right, there are indeed people who are interested in our company's stocks, and someone has already contacted Chen Zengxi, hoping to acquire Chen Zengxi's shares in Chen's Toys!"
Chen Wenlun didn't show much change, "This is understandable. This person must have some of our company's stocks in his hands, otherwise it would be impossible to do this!"
"Do you know who the other party is?"
"I heard that it is a company called Fengge Entertainment. Chen Zengxi told me that they sent people to investigate this company. It is a new company, and the boss is just a small person who opened a factory in the mainland!"
"Amy, go and check the company's stock transactions in the past two days. Are there any large transactions?" Chen Wenlun directly ordered his father's secretary to do the work.
And Amy didn't hesitate at all, as if this kind of thing had happened often before.
Amy came back soon: "Chairman, General Manager, I have asked the company to check. There have been no large purchases and sales of the company's stocks in the past few days. It is normal!"
"It seems that someone has sold his shares in Chen's Toys!" Chen Wenlun said in a deep voice.
"Who is the one?"
"The Dong family of Orient Overseas and the Zhang family of Overseas Trust Bank, these two are the most likely, but I don't know which one it is!" Chen Wenlun thought for a moment and said.
"Fengge Entertainment, Allen, have you heard of this company?" Chen Songtai suddenly asked after calling the Dong family and Zhang family.
Chen Wenlun recalled it and shook his head, "No, it's just that if the other party is really just a small company as Chen Zengxi said, where would they have the courage and funds to maliciously acquire our Chen's Toys?"
Chen Songtai said with some worry: "Is it possible that people from the north want to get involved in our Chen's toys? If that is really the case..."
"Impossible. What's going on in the Mainland? We all know that having the ability to make this acquisition cannot be a private act. It can only be a decision made by the upper level. But if it is the upper level, they can't be targeting our Chen's Toys.
Such a hostile takeover is not a good reputation, and the mainland attaches great importance to its reputation in Hong Kong." Chen Wenlun said firmly.
Chen Songtai breathed a sigh of relief and said: "As long as it is not a decision made by the upper management, it will be easy to handle. But if it is really like what Chen Zengxi said, the other party is just a small factory, then where will they get the funds to buy our Chen's toys?
?”
As the two father and son deduced, things seemed to have entered a strange circle. If the other party intended to acquire Chen's toys with malicious intent, then judging from the other party's behavior of building factories in China, they could not have too many external sources of funds, so they acquired
Where does the money for Chen's toys come from?
But if the other party just wants to create public opinion, and then give Xiangjiang stockholders a kind of Chen's toy that has problems and sell stocks, and then they take advantage of the low price and wait for the public opinion to pass before selling it at a high price, then there is no need for them
Have you contacted Chen Zengxi?
"Could it be that the other party's contact with Chen Zengxi was just a smoke bomb? Just now, daddy, you have called the Dong family and the Chen family. Both families said that they have not sold our company's stocks. Since the other party wants to buy shares in Chen's Toys
, should have known about our relationship with Chen Zengxi, but we approached Chen Zengxi and offered to buy his shares. In the end, he left without even saying a few words. All these actions were intended to give us the illusion that someone wanted to acquire our Chen Zengxi.
His toys, in fact, he played the trick of buying at low prices and selling at high prices?"
Chen Wenlun finally concluded!
Chen Songtai thought for a long time and said: "I am more inclined to your judgment. Well, now that we don't know what the other party is playing, let's wait and see. If the other party really wants to acquire our Chen family
After the market opens today, there will definitely be other moves, so let’s just wait and see what happens!”
Chen Wenlun nodded and said: "This is the only way!"
After the Hong Kong stock market opened, many people stared at the share price of Chen's Toys. Although there was a small amount of selling, it was quickly bought by others without causing much disturbance.
This situation continued until the market closed in the morning, and nothing changed.
In a cafe in Central!
Xie Wanqing and Chen Wenlun sat looking at each other.
"Brother Lun, I looked at the stock price this morning. The stock price of Chen's Toys has not changed much. It seems that the other party does not have this ability!"
Xie Wanqing also received news about Chen's Toys this morning, and at the same time sent people to keep an eye on the news about Chen's Toys in the stock market. However, she herself came to Chen's Toys early and found Chen Wenlun.
Chen Wenlun stirred the coffee in front of him, with warmth in his eyes, and said with a smile: "If there is nothing else to do this afternoon, you can ignore this matter."
Things like this happen almost every day in Xiangjiang, so often the person in charge of each company will pay great attention to it on the first day, but if there is no action on the day, it means someone wants to fish in troubled waters!
After a morning of calm, the Chens and his son already thought that the other party might just be fishing in troubled waters!
"By the way, has Fengge Entertainment investigated clearly?" Xie Wanqing asked.
"It has been clearly investigated. The boss is a small boss who runs a garment factory in the mainland. He has no ability. By the way, do you still remember the time we met San Mao in Yong Kee some time ago?" Chen Wenlun asked.
Xie Wanqing recalled it and said: "I have the impression that this matter has something to do with Hong Jinbao. He really doesn't know how high the sky is!"
"It probably has nothing to do with Sanmao. It's just that in the recent movies Fengge Entertainment invested in, many people borrowed from Sanmao!" Chen Wenlun said.
"How much is the investment in the movie?" Xie Wanqing suddenly asked.
"Eight million Hong Kong dollars!" Chen Wenlun laughed.
"Brother Lun, you should not be too careless. If the other party is just a small factory in China, how can it be possible for him to invest 8 million Hong Kong dollars in a movie?" Xie Wanqing analyzed calmly.
Chen Wenlun thought for a moment and said: "Actually, I have thought about this worry before, but I have already found someone to investigate Zhou Tao very clearly. He does not have any background in Xiangjiang, but he left his work relationship and came to Xiangjiang last year, and then came to Xiangjiang.
With the help of Xiangjiang, he returned to China and invested in a small factory. If he really had any background, he wouldn't have been in such trouble!"
"But how to explain the source of his eight million?" Xie Wanqing still raised her own question!
Chen Wenlun fell into silence. He had always known that Xie Wanqing was no worse than himself in terms of business methods, and even saw some issues more sharply than himself, so he usually paid great attention to Xie Wanqing's opinions.
"Then what should we do?"
"Well, let's invite Hong Jinbao out first and find out the background of Fengge Entertainment!" Xie Wanqing said.
"Hong Jinbao is now cooperating with Fengge Entertainment. Will he tell us the truth?" Chen Wenlun said with some worry.
"Humph, the Xie family and the Chen family personally invited him, but he still has to weigh the weight himself!" Xie Wanqing said coldly.
"Well, but don't be too harsh on Hong Jinbao. After all, he is Zou Wenhuai's son. Zou Wenhuai is still very respectable among the Chaozhou people!" Chen Wenlun said.
"Yes, I know!"
.......
What kind of company is Fengge Entertainment?
What kind of person is the boss of Fengge Entertainment?
Does Fengge Entertainment have any background?
.......
When these questions were placed in front of Hong Jinbao, he was full of questions. He didn't know why the prince of the Chen family and the princess of the Xie family were suddenly interested in Fengge Entertainment, although there had been rumors about the Chen family in Central.
Regarding toys, but this has nothing to do with Kam-po Hung. His focus is not on stocks. Recently, he has been busy with his new movie.
As for why these two people suddenly became interested in Fengge Entertainment, he was even more confused. He always felt that since he got involved with Fengge Entertainment, his life suddenly became different from before.
Fengge Entertainment is an entertainment company that invests in making movies. I heard that it has recently signed several bands.
I have only met the boss of Fengge Entertainment once, and I know his name is Zhou Tao. He is currently in a factory in China.
Does Fengge Entertainment have any background?
This is the most difficult question for Hong Jinbao to answer. He is sure in his heart that Fengge Entertainment must have a background, but does he dare to say this background?
The Xie family and the Chen family were indeed close to each other, but when he thought about the mysterious Wu Jianye, who clearly knew that Xu Zhi was the one who betrayed him, and still looked like he was promoting him with a smile, he trembled in his heart and couldn't help it.
Following the trembling, he thought Wu Jianye was more scary than the two of them.
However, he couldn't directly say that Fengge Entertainment had no background. He could only say that he didn't know clearly. It was just a simple film cooperation with the other party. The other party provided money and he provided people. It was that simple. It was too deep and he didn't know it!
Not much valuable information was obtained from Hong Jinbao, so Xie Wanqing and Chen Wenlun left a little disappointed.
Hong Jinbao thought for a moment, called Wu Jianye's hotel, and told Wu Jianye what happened.
"Thank you, Brother Sanmao!" Wu Jianye smiled.
Everything about Chen's toys today is naturally the result of Wu Jianye's actions. Spreading the news in Central was also his work. Although this kind of thing seems a bit troublesome, it is actually very simple. Just find some people and put them on
Wearing white-collar clothes, and then sitting together in various tea restaurants in Central, it started to spread, and soon it spread throughout Central.
Wu Jianye did not wait for the stock market to open, so he sold a large number of Chen's Toys stocks in his hands to lower their stock prices. He also hoped to give Chen's Toys the idea that he only wanted to fish in troubled waters, otherwise
It was a real fight with swords and guns from the very beginning. There was no way I could defeat the Chen family with the little money I had!
Boiling frogs in warm water is Wu Jianye’s main method this time!
"Brother, what should we do now?" Yan Wen asked.
"Let those people continue to spread the news tomorrow, and then tell Xiao Lu to release hundreds of thousands of shares of Chen's toys tomorrow to see the attitude of Chen's side!" Wu Jianye said.
"Okay, I understand!" Yan Wen nodded.
By the next day, news about the problem with Chen's toys was still spreading in Central. However, after yesterday's actions, many people were convinced that this was just someone fishing in troubled waters, and the group of people who spread the news also became
It made everyone laugh.
However, more than an hour after the stock market opened, someone suddenly listed 100,000 shares of Chen's Toys. This was the largest single transaction of Chen's Toys in recent times!
But soon, these 100,000 shares were bought!
Everyone just paid attention to it at first, but then didn't take it seriously. Chen's Toys also believed that it was just some retail investors who were affected and sold their stocks.
Same thing on the third day!
On the fourth day, it was still the same!
.......
Gradually, when everyone no longer took this matter to heart, several major securities companies suddenly sold a large number of Chen's Toys stocks at the same time!
