Black technology: a super empire spanning two worlds

Chapter 53 [New Substitution Plan]

"For the time being, I cannot deal in fresh fruits, vegetables, and meat products. The potential risks are too great, unless I have a strong force in the Blue Star world that is enough to protect myself and not be afraid of any local forces..." Xiao Yu thought secretly at this moment and nodded repeatedly.

If the natives of the Blue Star world discovered that the fresh fruits, vegetables and meat products that were brought over had the ability to reproduce,

My goodness, that would definitely become explosive news that would shock the entire Blue Star world.

When the news reaches the ears of the ruling elites at the top of the pyramid in the Blue Star world, they will surely be furious and will mobilize resources to investigate the source at all costs.

For Xiao Yu now, the risk index instantly skyrocketed.

Right now, Xiao Yu has basically no foundation in the Blue Star World, and has even just begun to make progress. If at this critical juncture he is directly targeted by the top rulers of the Blue Star World, he will surely be unable to move forward.

Before you have enough strength and power to protect yourself, you can't act recklessly and must develop in a low-key manner.

"Fresh fruits and vegetables are not available for the time being, so what else can be used as a substitute..." Xiao Yu muttered to himself, frowning and falling into deep thought.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Yu suddenly had an idea. He thought of an alternative plan: "I got it. Let the finished pure starch replace the fresh fruits, vegetables and meat products."

A large number of finished starch products are produced through industrial processing. They are shipped to the Blue Star World as artificial synthetic starch, and they do not have as great potential risks as fresh fruits and vegetables.

In the Blue Star world, although the price of artificial starch is much cheaper than fresh fruits, vegetables and meat products, it is still seriously inverted compared to the starch price on Earth. In the Blue Star world, the price of one pound of synthetic starch is 150 star yuan, and the price of one ton is 30 star yuan.

On this side of the Earth, the price of a ton of starch is between RMB 2800 and 3000.

As long as 630 tons of starch are purchased here on Earth, if the transaction is completed at a price of 2800 yuan per ton, it will be 176.4 million yuan.

If these 630 tons of starch are sold to the Blue Star World, they can be converted into 1.88 million star yuan. The purchasing cost of the 2000 tons of graphene ordered by Xiao Yu in the Blue Star World will cost 1.88 million star yuan.

In other words, it only costs RMB 176.4 million to purchase 630 tons of starch, which can be exchanged for 2000 tons of graphene materials.

It is expected that these 2000 tons of graphene will generate revenue of more than 600 billion yuan when it is brought to Earth.

With a cost of 176.4 million yuan, it created a revenue of more than 600 billion yuan, and the interest rate difference is +3401260.66%, which is a terrifying profit margin of more than 3.4 times. Although it is about ten to twenty times lower than the cost-effectiveness of trading fresh fruits and vegetables, it is still terrifying.

For Xiao Yu, this is obviously completely acceptable, and when dealing with starch, there is no need to worry about the huge potential risks like dealing with fresh fruits and vegetables.

"It's settled. For now, we'll focus on dealing in starch. We'll talk about fresh fruits and vegetables later." Xiao Yu made the decision immediately. This is the best solution on Blue Star at the moment.

……

The next day.

Prism Technology Headquarters, Chairman’s Office.

Xiao Yu arrived at the company and entered his office, then called Yun Shu to come over. After waiting for a while, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Xiao Yu looked up and saw Yun Shu entering the office, and immediately ordered: "Go and arrange something. Prepare 1 million yuan of funds to purchase starch for the company's food processing department."

After readjusting the strategy, the scale of starch trading will be very large, so we cannot purchase it ourselves.

Hearing this, Yun Shu's eyes showed a bit of surprise. After reacting, he couldn't help but say, "Spend 1 million to purchase starch? Are you sure? According to the current market price, 1 million funds can buy more than 3.5 tons of starch."

Does the food processing industry need so much starch? And the shelf life of starch is only about one or two years.

But what Yun Shu didn't know was that Xiao Yu wanted to purchase large quantities through the company precisely because he saw that starch had a short shelf life.

If you buy too much and the products expire because you can't use them all, then you have to dispose of the defective products. In the process of disposal, you can transfer some of the starch to the Blue Star World, and then they can be treated as expired products and reported as losses.

Although it is a bit wasteful, 1 million can be exchanged for 600 billion, which is a huge profit anyway. Not to mention 1 million, even 10 billion is a huge profit.

Xiao Yu said with certainty: "I'm sure, just do as I say, buy 1 million starch, and execute it as soon as possible." Hearing that he had made a decision, Yun Shu had no choice but to nod and respond: "Okay, I'll arrange it."

Xiao Yu added: "Oh yes, for safety reasons, the starch storage location should be built far away from the city."

Yun Shu nodded: "Yes, I understand."

Although starch is not a dangerous explosive, when starch dust and air reach a certain mixed concentration, it will cause an explosion when it encounters open flames or static sparks.

After arranging this matter, Xiao Yu only needs to wait for the company on Earth to purchase the starch, which is a total of more than 3.5 tons. He can then quietly take 630 tons of it and send it to the Blue Star world without anyone noticing.

By then, most of the starch will be expired and reported as lost.

At this time, Yun Shu looked at Xiao Yu and asked, "Is there anything else?"

It's true. Xiao Yu was busy traveling between the two worlds and forgot about the decision to compensate retail investors. This matter is also very important. Xiao Yu knows that his reputation has collapsed now. The name Xiao Laoliu is not a good word. He might be targeted by retail investors who have suffered losses when he goes out one day.

Xiao Yu opened the market client on his work computer and looked at his company's stock, then looked at the beautiful assistant: "From July 7, when the company's stock price hit the daily limit, to August 27, when the company's stock price hit a record low of 8 yuan, we counted the small and medium-sized retail investor accounts that participated in the company's stock trading during this period, including the detailed profit and loss data of each account."

Yun Shu couldn't help but look at Xiao Yu curiously: "What are you going to do?"

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Of course I will compensate these retail investors for their losses. I will pay for it myself, and the company does not need to bear this expense. This must be done, otherwise my reputation will never recover in this lifetime. I also have to be on guard against investors who have suffered heavy losses. I don't want to be suddenly ganked and beaten by investors who bought my company's stocks."

Yun Shu was stunned when she heard this, with a look of surprise on her pretty face. “That would definitely require an astronomical figure. The company’s market value at the time was 325 billion. According to the circulating market value at the time, even if we remove those big funds, a rough calculation would require more than 70 billion or even 80 billion.”

Xiao Yu looked calm and composed, glancing at the beautiful assistant. He smiled and said calmly, "It is indeed an astronomical figure, but it is not a lot of money for me now. Spending these tens of billions will not only instantly restore my and my company's reputation and image among the people, but also maximize the positive word-of-mouth effect. In the long run, this deal is a great bargain."

Yun Shu was speechless for a moment. Judging from the current reputation of the company and Xiao Yu, the company's reputation had indeed collapsed miserably.

After a while, Yun Shu stared at Xiao Yu and asked again: "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Xiao Yu nodded with certainty: "Do it."

"Okay, I'll handle this." Yun Shu thought about it, looked at Xiao Yu again and said, "But I'm afraid the exchange may not give us the detailed transaction data for the current period. After all, your behavior has set a very 'bad' precedent for many listed companies."

There are so many stocks in the A-share market that have plummeted, and everyone is having a great time making money. But you, Xiao Yu, are so capable that when the stocks plummeted, you paid money to compensate the shareholders. Aren't you slapping us in the face?

Xiao Yu knew that this approach was actually very offensive, but after weighing the pros and cons, he still decided to do it.

No matter what, owning the teleportation star ring is his greatest confidence.

Xiao Yu said calmly: "Don't worry, the exchange will definitely not give us the data. If we apply for the data and they don't give it to us, the exchange will be asking for trouble. If the stockholders find out, all the firepower will be focused on the exchange. I am the manager of the exchange, and I will definitely not ask for such trouble."

After a while, Xiao Yu thought for a while and added: "However, when sending people to the exchange to apply for data retrieval, don't tell them my purpose. Just find another reason. In this way, it won't be so difficult for the exchange. As long as we can achieve our goal, try not to make it difficult for them."

Yun Shu nodded: "Yes, I understand."

The situation in the capital market is complex and the waters are extremely deep.

If it is stated explicitly that investors who suffered losses will be compensated for their losses, the exchange will face great resistance to the data.

There will definitely be a force that will obstruct it, because what Xiao Yu has done is considered a very "bad" behavior in the eyes of some people, and they will definitely try their best to obstruct it.

However, if the exchange does not provide the data, it will surely be criticized by angry shareholders. Investors' anger towards Xiao Yu will be transferred to the exchange, and the anger may be super-doubled, which will have an extremely negative impact on the exchange.

If Xiao Yu doesn't reveal the real purpose of reviewing the data, the exchange can pass the buck. I didn't know about it in advance. Who knows that Xiao Yu applied for data retrieval in order to compensate the shareholders who suffered losses? If I had known, he would definitely not give it. The blame could be perfectly passed on, and the other side would not have to bear the anger of the shareholders.
