He won 900 million in the lottery.

Dong Sheng's original share price was 80 yuan, and Jiao Yilun plans to raise it to 120 yuan.

Then, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC) conducted a targeted transaction with Dongsheng Group at a price of 100 yuan per share.

"If the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission's equity premium is 100 yuan per share, then 240 billion yuan would become 300 billion yuan."

"What you could have accomplished for 240 billion has now cost you an extra 60 billion."

Jiao Yilun realized that I didn't know much about stock price manipulation.

"I pledged 300 million shares to the bank at a price of 100 yuan per share, and then sold them at 120 yuan, which was enough to pay the 3 billion yuan settlement payment. Then I released the news that the negotiations failed and the orders were zero, so the stock price would fall back to 80 yuan. We didn't actually spend any money, but the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission was still out of the game."

Luo Tian reprimanded, "But by doing this, the victims will only be retail investors and shareholders who have confidence in Dongsheng Group. Do you know how many people you're causing to go bankrupt or jump off buildings?"

It seems Luo Tian understands the stock market.

"No state property was lost, and we didn't spend a single penny to get back the port shares. Isn't that a win-win situation?"

Jiao Yilun left the office, and then it was time for Luo Tian and me to be alone.

Since Jiao Yilun left, Luo Tian has been vehemently criticizing his behavior.

"Although his actions made money for the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, he lost out on future profits and enriched himself, while the shareholders suffered the most."

"Go back and talk to your uncle about this, and see how he handles it."

The 40% stake in Dongsheng Port belongs to the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of Dong Province, and is indirectly under the jurisdiction of the Dong Province Government.

Prior to this, Jiao Yilun had already spoken with the leaders of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, who indicated that as long as Governor Luo gave his approval, there would be no problem with the transaction.

The key issue here is how to transfer benefits to Luo Guoqing.

And the medium was Luo Tian.

Luo Tian said angrily, "My uncle will not agree."

"Silly girl, this is the second lesson I'm teaching you. Go back and find your uncle."

Heaven is ruthless; it treats all things like straw dogs.

State-owned assets have increased.

Dongsheng Group acquired ownership of six major ports.

Governor Luo received a money bag with continuous dividends.

How could he disagree with a win-win-win policy?

After all, a stock investor's bankruptcy due to failed stock trading is simply a market economic phenomenon.

In a dog-eat-dog world, if you want to make money, you have to be prepared to accept failure.

Luo Tian angrily left Dongsheng Investment Co., Ltd. alone.

Jiao Yilun returned with a cup of coffee.

"What's wrong? Miss Luo seems quite unhappy."

"I didn't expect her to know so much about the stock market."

Coffee is bitter, and so is tea.

I frowned. "Let's have tea instead. Coffee isn't for humans."

"Hehe, that's high society, they always have to do some elegant things."

"You mean the leaders from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission have already contacted Governor Luo?"

"Yes, Governor Luo did not explicitly refuse."

Not refusing means agreeing.

As long as Luo Tian goes back to explain the whole story to him, Luo Guoqing will naturally know why Ya Hong Group was involved.

The key point lies in Nanx Energy Investment Company, where Luo Tian works.

The largest shareholder of Nanx Energy Investment Company is Ya Hong Group.

Therefore, as long as Luo Guoqing agrees, Ya Hong Group can become a shareholder of Dong Sheng Group.

As for how the Dongsheng Group could transfer benefits to the governor of Dong Province, the Ya Hong Group had a thousand ways to do it, and it was all done through Luo Tian.

"Alright, I've finished the favor you asked for, and now you should keep your promise."

"Sure thing, I've already contacted the three of them. This time, each group will invest another 200 billion in Nanx. What do you think? We've reviewed the annual report for the Nanx Province Integrated Livelihood Project, and it's truly an astonishing investment!"

"Too little. Each person should contribute at least 400 billion. Ya Hong Group plans to invest 3000 billion in Dong Province. As the leading group in Dong Province, you four major groups must invest at least half of that amount. This will save me the hassle of financing in various cities and prefectures. You can make money, and I'll save myself trouble."

Jiao Yilun frowned and said, "Nanxing Energy requires actual cash investment. Where are we going to get 1600 billion yuan in cash for you?"

"How about your four groups agree to four separate deals, each worth 10 billion, over the next four years?"

Jiao Yilun breathed a sigh of relief. That meant it wasn't a problem anymore. 100 billion a year was still a lot of work for the group.

apartment.

Wang Yan, Xu Jingyan, and I opened champagne.

"The funds for the Dong Province's integrated livelihood project have been raised ahead of schedule, which has saved me a lot of trouble."

"Good news! The vessel purchased by Ya Hong Insurance has also been approved!"

"good."

Xu Jingyan's usually expressionless face broke into a smile: "It's quite unexpected that Dongsheng's port can be built without spending any money. With this 20 billion plus the 20 billion from Qingfeng Manor, we now have 40 billion in funds in the account."

"Dongsheng Group plans to falsify order figures to inflate the stock price and take the opportunity to repurchase state-owned assets, namely the 40% stake in those six ports. How can we maximize our profits?"

"Is Jiao Yilun certain that the stock price will rebound?"

"The order book is a false signal. Once an official announcement refutes the rumors, the stock price will likely fall, right?"

"A mix of truth and illusion. What if a fake order turns out to be a real one? Then Dongsheng's stock would be worth a lot more."

"His real purpose may not necessarily be to acquire a 40% stake in the port."

Is there something fishy going on here?

"Since Dongsheng Group's stock price is bound to fall, there's one thing Jiao Yilun didn't tell you: short selling can make more money than driving up the price."

"Acquiring port shares is just a smokescreen; he's trying to short himself and fleece shareholders?!"

Dong Sheng Group's stock price is currently at 80. If it rises to 120, and the 40% stake in the port is not purchased by Dong Sheng Group but by another company, then Dong Sheng's stock price will definitely plummet!

It might even be cut in half!

Xu Jingyan analyzed very calmly: "They set up several shell companies and used the money earned from short selling to transfer 100% of the port's equity, which was controlled by Dongsheng Group and the Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, to their own names. Although the Jiao family is the major shareholder of Dongsheng Group, nothing beats having such a core and high-quality asset as the port in their own hands. It's a classic case of getting something for nothing."

"That was a brilliant move."

I stroked my chin. If it weren't for the Wang Yan and Xu Jingyan sisters, I'm afraid I would have fallen into their trap and ended up doing all the work for the Jiao family. I probably wouldn't even have had time to escape with the money that had been inflated.

The most crucial point in the entire game lies in the port's equity.

Provincial State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission: 40%.

Dongsheng Group owns 60%.

"A 50% stock premium means you need to prepare at least 600 billion in cash to compete with Dongsheng Group for ownership of the port?"

"Yes, the money Dongsheng got from pledging his shares is not enough to cover 600 billion. He must have other funds in his portfolio, and he needs to repay the borrowed funds by making profits from short selling."

"That's incredibly daring and exciting!"

No wonder everyone wants to invest in stocks!
