Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 248 Since life is destined to be led by the nose by others, then choose a good one...

From anxiety to sleeplessness, to excitement to sleeplessness, the whole process only takes a few seconds.

Yan Li immediately turned on her phone to confirm what had just happened.

That's right, Apple shares fell eight points in after-hours trading!

The reason was that after the market closed, Apple's CEO announced that the company had significantly lowered its revenue forecast for the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 from the original $890 billion to $930 billion to $840 billion.

Apple's first fiscal quarter refers to the three months of October, November, and December of the previous year. Although it is only January 2nd and the data has not been fully compiled, the overall difference will not be too large. In other words, the decrease in revenue is already a given fact.

The decrease in revenue means a decrease in net profit, which was immediately reflected in the financial market, with the stock price falling by eight points in after-hours trading.

Looking back at yesterday's market, Yan Li saw absolutely no signs of such negative news.

Unfortunately, Lin Lang had anticipated this in advance.

He thought of the things Shen An'an had done before. Several times when Shen An'an bought stocks, she had predicted the problems with those stocks in advance, even before the major players in the market.

At that time, everyone believed that Lin Lang had a very powerful team of analysts behind him, including himself and his father.

However, as she had more and more contact with Lin Lang, she never saw any trace of that analyst team, even though her initial purpose in contacting Lin Lang was to get her hands on that team.

The performance of Tianjin Hybrid Selection over the past month has had little to do with the analyst team; it was more due to Lin Lang's personal abilities.

As time went on, Yan Li gradually forgot about it.

What happened today stirred up her memories again.

Has Lin Lang's analyst team stepped up their efforts?
Did they already analyze Apple's problems? Were they the fastest to react in the market?
If Lin Lang only found out about this yesterday, it means they had more than one alternative plan and must have analyzed other options, since Lin Lang already had a strategy for the operation a few days ago.

If they didn't know about this yesterday, that's even more impressive, showing that their analyst team is already ahead of the global financial teams.

Many pieces of information can be known several hours or a day or half a day ahead of others, which can be explained by having certain channels. But if a piece of information is confirmed several days ahead of others, and from the market perspective, others are still unaware of it, then there is a lot more to it than meets the eye.

It was only a little past six in the morning, and Yan Li knew that Lin Lang was definitely not awake yet, so she didn't make the call.

However, she was finally able to relax completely.

Tomorrow, the net asset value of Tianjin Global Selection will surely bring everyone a surprise.

Normally, after-hours trading is just an appetizer; once the market officially opens, the price often drops more sharply than during after-hours trading.

The stock was down 8% in after-hours trading; wouldn't it drop 9% or even 10% after the market officially opens?
They bought a product with triple leverage.

If Apple's stock price drops by 10%, it means they can earn 30%.

Of course, these are only theoretical; we'll have to wait until tonight to find out the specifics.

However, Tianjin Global Selection undoubtedly managed to mitigate this epic negative factor!
She quickly washed her face and then went to check on the situation at the company.

Because of the launch of QDII fund products, the company has staff working 24 hours a day. The evening shift doesn't end until 7 a.m.

"What's the net asset value situation? Has it been released yet?"

"Boss, it hasn't been announced yet."

"Give it to me for signature, then publish it directly."

Yan Li knew why it hadn't been announced: because it didn't meet expectations.

The net asset value on that day was only +1.56%, which is extremely poor compared to the past performance of Tianjin Hybrid Selection.

When the market closed, Yan Li was also very nervous about the data and didn't even think about announcing it at the first opportunity.

But now, she has the confidence to face it.

……

Netizens don't sleep for 24 hours.

The moment Tianjin Global Selection announced its net asset value, someone discovered the data and made a video.

People who make videos can be divided into various perspectives.

There is a veteran influencer with 60,000 to 70,000 followers who has a certain level of influence on short video platforms due to some of his 'professional' performances.

Within half an hour of the net asset value being released, he posted a video featuring himself.

Of course, the video also included the net asset value of Tianjin Global Selection.

"I just woke up and saw someone message me saying that the net asset value was out, so I went to take a look. To be honest, I was very disappointed when I saw the net asset value."

As you all know, I have always had high expectations for this company, and I have been paying close attention to them ever since their first product came out.

The first product became an instant hit within a month, becoming the hottest product in the financial market and breaking numerous records.

Although I faced a lot of criticism along the way, I always believed that without real ability, it would be difficult to achieve this result, no matter how well it was managed.

However, after seeing their operations in overseas markets, I think I might have to change my mind.

First, the so-called overseas market actually refers to the US stock market. Other markets are much smaller, and domestic capital participation is low. As for buying US stocks, my expectations aren't as terrifying as what's circulating online—that anything less than 10% a day is unacceptable. In reality, I personally think that with their capabilities, 4-5% a day is the minimum.

Some people will surely say, "Why should I?" Making money in the stock market involves an element of luck; who can guarantee they can keep making money?

But I would say that, given their previous performance, it would be normal for them to do this; it would be abnormal if they couldn't.

I will explain the reason later.

First, the mechanisms of the domestic market and the US stock market are different. US stocks allow T+0 trading, which means that you can withdraw your investment on the same day. This represents more room for maneuver, and they are known for their trading skills.

Secondly, there's the scale. One billion US dollars is a very small amount of money compared to that market. They can handle two or three hundred billion in A-shares, so there's no reason why they can't handle one billion US dollars.

Finally, there's the overall trend. The US stock market is the most demanding market for trading skills; the stronger your skills, the more you can earn in this market.

Yesterday's net asset value appeared to have increased, but in reality, it was no different from not increasing at all. Their benchmark is their extraordinary ability, but yesterday, there were as many as seven domestic QDII funds whose net asset value increased more than theirs; theirs is just a very mediocre number.

Having worked in this industry for so many years, I wouldn't have dared to speak definitively before, but now I'm fairly certain their capabilities aren't as strong as people imagine. Of course, I can't comment on whether their operations in the domestic market were illegal, and I won't speculate without evidence. However, achieving this level of performance with limited capital, a large market, and a wider variety of financial instruments is seriously unacceptable!

A seemingly rational and objective statement actually tramples on Tianjin Capital, because rational and objective statements often attract many "clear-headed" people. These "clear-headed" people, with their exceptional self-confidence, become staunch "preachers," forcing more people to accept their "clear-headed" and "reasonable" views.

Those who cannot accept their "sober" remarks will be labeled as ignorant.

Although the video did not explicitly name Tianjin Capital, anyone with even a slight understanding of the company and who saw the screenshots of net asset value growth posted by the other party would know that it was referring to Tianjin Capital.

The essence of this video is to question whether Tianjin Capital's previous operations in China were irregular and whether its previous achievements were largely exaggerated, which was exposed when it went abroad.

Even though it was only a little past seven in the morning, related press releases had already begun to flood the internet.

Clearly, the mastermind behind this has decided that Tianjin Capital is unable to achieve results in overseas markets, and now is the most opportune time to continue amplifying yesterday's public opinion.

Yan Li didn't have time to pay attention to online opinions. After all, Lin Lang wasn't around, and she had to manage two funds, which was quite a hassle.

Around 8 o'clock, she explained what she needed to do that day, then drove home, washed up, and went to bed.

There's not much to do at Tianjin Mixed Selection. She doesn't have much money left from today's subscription, only tens of millions left. She doesn't want to stay at the company.

In any case, it's impossible to change the previous trading strategy.

When a barrage of questions came crashing down on Tianjin Capital, Yan Li was asleep. As for Lin Lang?

He didn't even look at the stock market; he took a bunch of beautiful women to Ziyun Mountain to film videos that morning.

He sent content scripts to many beautiful women and personally demonstrated them.

"First, we need to shoot a good opening for the video. There is a very important part in it: where we went and what we are doing. These are the most basic skills for short videos. Without these, it will be difficult to attract people's attention."

Secondly, how should we approach this area, and what should we do? For example, let's assume Ziyun Mountain is a peak of one or two thousand meters above sea level, like Mount Tai or Mount Huang… So where do we begin? Of course, we start with their inherent characteristics…

What are the characteristics of Mount Tai? It has many characteristics, whether it's its fame or its difficulty… We can choose any one. Today, let's assume the difficulty of climbing it is the only characteristic. Then we can say, what if it takes three hours to reach the Jade Emperor Peak…

When shooting video content, the most important thing is to be interesting and create contrast... So we can act a bit arrogant in the beginning, gradually become more defiant in the middle, and then soften our stance in the later stages...

We could even add other elements along the way, such as absolutely refusing to take the cable car, to enrich the storyline...

Of course, besides this shooting technique, there's another approach, similar to popular science... Many people have a limited understanding of travel, and their knowledge of the outside world is often disorganized and disorganized. Therefore, we can help them clearly explain the entire travel plan and costs, helping them avoid pitfalls.

For example, you could offer a four-day, three-night trip for 1,000 yuan, providing a detailed list of expenses from train tickets to accommodation, from ticket purchases to dining.

These are the two most suitable models for outdoor travel bloggers. There aren't many tourists at Ziyun Mountain right now. My purpose today is to help you review the submissions, and you can submit your reports tonight. If they're suitable, Dayu Media will immediately arrange a team.

……

Before we knew it, the A-share market had reopened.

As expected, previously popular small-cap stocks all opened at the daily limit down.

Hengxin Capital and its partners immediately started to push up the price of Dongfang Communication. After the market opened today, Dongfang Communication only had a 300 million yuan limit down, which was much better than they expected.

then……

Through their efforts, they managed to pry open the market in just five minutes after it opened.

Immediately afterwards, they began to use the remaining funds to drive up the price.

According to their thinking, as long as the leading stock opens up, the number of sell orders at the limit down price of other stocks will decrease rapidly, and they will gradually open up and start to rise.

However, after waiting for half an hour, the stock price of Dongfang Communication, which they had finally managed to revive, not only failed to boost the market sentiment, but was also slowly driven down to the daily limit.

They were completely bewildered, having no idea why the public sentiment had turned out this way.

This is their last resort.

They've tried everything they could, but they still couldn't pull the market up. So what else can they do?
Waiting to die?
After seeing the stock price of Dongfang Communication rise, retail investor Hu Weimin immediately invested all of his online loan funds, totaling more than 300,000 yuan.

This isn't his limit; he's only taken out two low-interest online loans. He hasn't taken out any others yet.

In his mind, today was a good opportunity to turn things around, and he was sure the stock would hit the daily limit.

However, the stocks he bought at the peak quickly fell back and were once again pushed to the daily limit down.

For the next four hours, there was no rebound whatsoever.

By the close of trading, the combined trading volume of those small-cap stocks was only a little over 3 billion, a dramatic decrease compared to the previous trading volumes of 10 to 20 billion.

Not many people buy it.

In contrast to these small-cap stocks, large-cap stocks rose significantly today, and the overall market index also rose by nearly one point.

There are many retail investors like Hu Weimin, but few are as fanatical as him.

Some people withdrew today, only to find that after more than ten days of effort, they hadn't made any money at all.

If you put your money into Tianjin Mixed Selection, you could earn more than 40 points in the seven or eight trading days over these ten days.

Why bother trying to do it yourself? You'll be exhausted and won't even make any money.

So what if you run fast today, but you don't run fast today? What will the outcome be?
At 3:30 pm, I checked the net asset value of Tianjin Hybrid Selection and found that it had risen by nearly four points today.

Since its issuance more than a month ago, the net asset value has never been negative.

Looking back on those thoughts, I suddenly realized that my life was like that of a clown.

Thinking they were so great, but the result...

"Let's buy 20,000 if we can, otherwise we might not be able to get that quota later..."

Since we're destined to be led by the nose in life, let's choose a good one...
