Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 175 That fairy wand in Shanghai?

Friday, January 12th.

The last trading day of the week.

Lin Lang arrived at the company exceptionally early today, at 8:20.

I used to arrive around 8:50.

Upon arriving at Yan Li's office, he immediately asked, "Didn't something I told you yesterday go wrong?"

Yan Li didn't know what to say. "No, everyone at the company has already left."

"That's fine. I was worried that some people in the company might be overly ambitious and treat the company like their own home. They might see there's money available for subscription and think they've got nothing better to do, so they just confirmed it..."

Yan Li: "..."

"Come with me over there and I'll explain it again."

Yan Li greatly admired Lin Lang's meticulousness.

Although she had already given instructions, she still took Lin Lang there to watch him solemnly give his instructions. She also embedded a search box on the webpage so that it would display any results for Shen An'an's name.

Yan Li felt that Lin Lang was the real workaholic.

She still doesn't understand why, if this guy is willing to work hard, he doesn't stay in Shanghai.

Even if I continue to run a media company, it's fine. The influencer resources in Shanghai are definitely much better than in Tianshui County.

After confirming several times, Lin Lang went to the trading room.

The main theme was basically determined from the start of the opening auction.

The opening price was three or four points lower than expected, which means that the major players are waiting for Tianjin Capital to inject funds into the market.

After all, if the opening price is high, Tianjin Capital might not be able to fill all its money.

Although some outsiders have analyzed Tianjin Capital's operations, few have been able to analyze them correctly, since most ordinary people do not have the insight to understand market manipulators.

However, with so many institutions in China, they must know everything perfectly well.

Not to mention that they could bribe insiders at the bank to check the financial movements of Tianjin Capital.

They can make a fairly accurate judgment just by looking at the market conditions.

After verifying for another two days, we can be 100% sure.

Now, it's tantamount to openly displaying our hand to financial institutions nationwide...

After the market opened, Lin Lang first instructed the traders to acquire chips in small amounts. After about an hour, they began to go all in with all their funds.

With over 900 million yuan poured in, the total holdings have reached a terrifying level, with holdings in several leading stocks already accounting for 4% of the total share capital of those stocks.
If we take a little more from this position, it might trigger a showdown.

Given Tianjin Capital's current situation, it is absolutely not advisable to make a takeover bid; doing so would be suicidal.

However, for those major players, forcing Tianjin Capital to raise its stake is the way to maximize their profits.

They can surely predict roughly when Tianjin Capital will reach the point of making a takeover bid...

If this market trend continues, next Wednesday will likely be the latest possible date.

On Lin Lang's side, with over 900 million yuan in funds, the price quickly hit the daily limit with minimal resistance.

However, after the price surged, Lin Lang started selling off his shares, forcing the major funds inside to support the price.

The major players are willing to take over, since the amount they are taking over is not large; for each stock, it's probably only a little over ten million.

Once the volume exceeds this level, they will stop and let the market crash, not giving Tianjin Capital a chance to escape.

They are willing to cooperate with Tianjin Capital to manage net asset value.

The overall trend was almost the same as yesterday. It dipped slightly in the afternoon, but quickly rebounded.

It was a close call, but the price was... Tianjin Capital invested over 4 billion yuan in it.

After the market closed at 3 p.m., Lin Lang walked out of the trading room but didn't leave immediately as usual. Instead, he asked, "Did you reject Shen An'an's funds?"

"Uh... I went to ask at noon and they had already refused, but the market was about to open, so I didn't tell you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Lang suddenly relaxed and said, "That's good. Arrange for a driver to take me to the high-speed rail station. I need to go back."

"Huh? Back to Tianshui?"

"Yes, the tickets are all bought."

"Then I'll take it to you."

Although she still needs to sign today, it's the same as sending it to Lin Lang first and then coming back to sign it.

As for net worth, once it's set up, it can be published at any time; there's no need for her, the boss, to be involved.

"it is good!"

Lin Lang didn't waste any time. His high-speed rail ticket was for 4:50, from Pudong to Hongqiao. If there was any traffic, it would take an hour and a half.

As for taking the subway? It's even slower, taking almost two hours, by which time you'll be out of luck.

He brought nothing with him, including the luggage he left at the hotel. He's going back empty-handed this time and will have to rush back on Sunday.

Just as Lin Lang was heading to the high-speed rail station, Shen An'an posted a video on her account.

The video only contained a screenshot of his application to subscribe to the Tianjin Hybrid Selection Fund, which was rejected by the fund.

Yan Li and Shen An'an have some overlap in their fan base, but the overlap is not high.

Yan Li's fans have relatively poor personal financial management skills, which is why they choose funds.

As for stock investors... many stock investors would rather trust themselves than buy funds, unless they have a lot of money and want to make a comprehensive allocation, in which case they would hold funds and trade stocks at the same time.

Although fund investors and stock investors are both sending money to A-shares, they are not the same group.

Shen An'an's side mainly consists of people who enjoy entertainment and stock market investors.

In the video, Shen An'an directly questioned Yan Li, asking why he rejected her application!

This kind of thing is indeed a source of amusement on the internet.

Fund companies do have the right to refuse subscriptions, but no one has ever done so.

Even if it's an enemy, there's no need to go against money.

Once the money reaches the fund company, the fund company can collect subscription fees and management fees. If the money is redeemed after a short holding period, the fund company can also collect a handling fee.

Being rejected by a fund company is truly a huge joke.

Add to that Shen An'an's unique character...

Although the video revealed the name of the fund company and was not widely shared, Shen An'an's existing fan base still boosted the video's popularity.

The video content is not against any rules, so it was not subject to traffic restrictions.

Soon, the number of likes exceeded 20,000, and the number of comments was even more outrageous, exceeding 30,000.

The most popular comment in the comments section was: "I'm relieved to see that Anshen was rejected. I'm in that fund, and if Anshen gets in, I'll run away immediately."

There were hundreds of replies, almost all of them were the same: We are together!

However, this comment was quickly overshadowed by another comment.

The new comment is longer: Funds? Even a dog wouldn't buy them! To put it bluntly, when you buy funds, you're just spreading the risk for others. The current market situation is very clear: only two themes in the entire A-share market are holding up. Tianjin Capital's ability to generate such a large net asset value must mean it has heavily invested in or even gone all-in on those two themes. I randomly picked a stock in the morning and bought it, and it hit the daily limit up in no time. I made 15 points in one day.

Shen An'an's comment section was frequented by many stock market investors, and this post quickly became a hot topic of discussion, with the number of replies steadily increasing from a few hundred to several thousand. Amidst the flood of replies, virtually any information could be found.

For stock market investors, that information will tell them what to do.

Some analysts even directly stated that Tianjin Capital will definitely continue operating, as they have no room to retreat. Moreover, after such a large turnover, large funds will not easily withdraw. They also claimed that all institutions knew about this all along and had been accumulating shares in small amounts. For retail investors, this market rally is practically free money!

Finally, he added that there was no need to worry about not being able to buy in, as the major players were waiting for Tianjin Capital to inject funds, and there would be opportunities every day.

……

When they arrived at the high-speed rail station, Yan Li suddenly said, "You're not going to go back and not come back, are you?"

"Even if I'm a jerk, the most important thing is that I haven't even been a jerk yet, so how could I give up halfway! By the way, black stockings don't look good, I'll change into white stockings tonight..."

After Lin Lang finished speaking, he opened the car door and waved goodbye to Yan Li.

Less than ten minutes after entering the station, Lin Lang got into the train, found his seat, reclined the backrest, and lay down.

He was very concerned about whether Shen An'an had applied, and also about whether Tianjin Capital had rejected her.

As someone who is climbing a mountain of knives, he is well aware of how difficult it is to descend from it.

Indeed, Tianjin Capital's positions are becoming increasingly heavy, making it increasingly difficult to reverse course.

However, it's not like everything is perfect for the main players.

At least one thing is certain: their holding costs have increased.

Even if some cash has already been taken out, it can offset the increased holding costs and may even result in a profit.

However, the increased cost of holding positions is a fact.

They have to dump shares every morning to get Tianjin Capital to enter the market, and they also have to help when the price hits the limit up, because if the price doesn't hit the limit up, the retail investors inside might run away.

The increase in holding costs will give them a different kind of sense of crisis. If the price keeps rising, that's fine, but if something unexpected happens, they may lose money.

After all, the higher the cost, the greater the potential for loss.

Both losses are 60%, but with a holding cost of three yuan and five yuan, one results in a loss of one yuan and eighty cents, while the other results in a loss of three yuan.

After five consecutive days of limit-up gains, many leading stocks have seen increases of up to 60%, meaning the cost basis for major investors has risen by at least 20%.
Even if the unrealized profits disappear, they can still earn the cashed-out funds, but the problem is... they have a base position, which is something they will never use under any circumstances.

Even excluding their initial holdings, the risk of them losing money still exists.

Profits and risks always coexist; there's no reason why Lin Lang's risks are increasing while the other side's are decreasing.

……

Qingju Hotel.

Shen An'an came here after posting the video.

This was the first time in her life that she had met someone she met online.

At the hotel, her father booked two floors and reserved one floor specifically for her.

Wang Yuheng was completely stunned when he saw Shen An'an.

Because she's even prettier than in the video.

Especially the way it accentuates her figure...

In the video, Shen An'an hardly showed off her figure, relying solely on her stunningly beautiful face even without makeup.

Seeing such a perfect figure in real life, he would be incredibly envious.

I've wasted my whole life!

However, he simply greeted Shen An'an and didn't dare to talk too much.

In Yang Kaitai's words, one should not have too much contact with Shen An'an, as it is easy to get entangled in karma.

Believe it or not?

You definitely have to believe it.

Based on just one sentence she posted on her WeChat Moments, claiming she led a group of people to make an unknown amount of money, one must believe her, and believe her without a doubt.

Shen An'an had originally offered to pick them up at the high-speed rail station, but they declined, telling her to just wait for them at the hotel entrance.

And then...that's how the two sides met...

Shen An'an watched for a while and then asked, "You guys could at least introduce yourselves. I have no idea who's who."

Yang Kaitai quickly said, "Anshen, why do you have to know who is who? Just call us whatever you want. Look at me, you can call me Uncle. Look at this old guy, you can call him Little Old Man. And these, you can call him Little Fairy, Little Square Face, Little Dark Face. Oh, and there's a Little Beauty too."

"Go away, who's the 'Black Face'? Answer me, I'm Wang Wei."

"Oh, here are your room keys."

Shen An'an took out the room key she had prepared beforehand.

"By the way, if you need anything, just let me know. Also, I've arranged dinner in the restaurant on the second floor. How about I take you to find your rooms first, and then we can rest for a while before going to eat?"

"I'll follow An Shen's instructions... By the way, has that sparkler arrived yet?"

Shen An'an: "..., this... he's not here."

"In Shanghai?"

"Huh? How did you know?"

In an instant, they all understood.

Although I was 99% sure that the magic wand was Yan Li, I never had the chance to verify it.

It's quite obvious now.

Moreover, Shen An'an used to say that she didn't know anything about fairy wands, but now she admits it.

The purpose of their visit has been achieved.

As for investing in Xinglan Real Estate, it was purely incidental.

Finding out the identity of that fairy wand is enough...

Shen An'an immediately said, "He's been very busy lately and can't come here. I know you're here because of him, but you don't need to feel pressured. Our family doesn't cheat people out of money. If you think it's suitable, invest a little; if not, that's fine too."

……

Meanwhile, Shen Xingnan was chatting with an old friend in his room.

"Old Shen, this afternoon I went to find out what your people were saying, and they weren't very optimistic. Their willingness to invest wasn't very strong."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xingnan lost all interest.

This old friend was the vice president of an investment company he had known for a long time. This time, he had helped him by getting information in advance.

But the result was not good.

"Brother, is it because I haven't taken good enough care of them? We can discuss what they need..."

The man sighed and said, "It's not about whether we'll take care of them or not, it's just that all the major investment companies are afraid to invest in the real estate industry now. But don't be discouraged, isn't the general manager of Golden Collar Capital's Jiangcheng branch coming over? Golden Collar Capital has money, and as the head of the Jiangcheng branch, he has a lot of authority. Besides, I've heard that he has a weakness..."

"Thank you so much, brother. When is he coming?" Shen Xingnan knew that these friends were reliable.

"They should have arrived much earlier, but I don't know what happened. Apparently, someone from headquarters just left and they probably won't be here for another two hours..."
