The world of film and television begins with university lecturers

Han Tao had just walked into his office and finished preparing his lessons, ready to take a break, when his phone suddenly rang.

Upon inspection, the caller ID showed no name, only a landline number.

Han Tao raised an eyebrow slightly, but still pressed the answer button, his tone calm and composed: "Hello, who is this?"

A smooth, capable, and respectful male voice came from the other end of the phone. It was Fan Jingang, the personal assistant of Ye Jinyan, the president of Jingyan Group.

"Hello Mr. Han, I am Fan Jingang, the chief secretary of Mr. Ye Jinyan, Chairman of Jingyan Group. I apologize for calling you so in advance. I hope you will forgive me."

His tone was perfectly measured, neither condescending like that of a business executive nor lacking in seriousness.

Upon hearing this, Han Tao replied calmly, "Secretary Fan, you're too kind. May I ask what brings you here?"

Fan Jingang carefully considered his words before slowly explaining his purpose: "It's like this, after the market closed yesterday, the group's securities department, together with a third-party brokerage firm, reviewed the list of the top ten shareholders."

They unexpectedly discovered that you hold eight million shares of Jingyan Group, ranking you among the group's top ten shareholders.

We checked the equity registration information overnight and confirmed that the equity was legal and compliant and belonged to a personal long-term investment holding. Only then did we manage to obtain your contact information.

After learning the news, General Manager Ye took it very seriously and specifically instructed me to call and ask Mr. Han to meet privately to discuss the matter in detail.

Upon hearing this, Han Tao understood. The market value of the Jingyan Group shares he held was equivalent to two small goals, and even amidst the widespread stock market crash in A-shares in 2015, his book assets were still enormous.

The market is currently in a state of panic, with investors engaging in widespread panic selling. The market index has been fluctuating downwards for several days, and any unusual movement of large sums of money is enough to affect the stock price of any group.

With such a large number of shares in circulation, if he chooses to sell them off in a concentrated manner, it will inevitably trigger market panic, causing retail investors to follow suit and flee, directly damaging the stock price of Jingyan Group.

This is also one of the reasons why Ye Jinyan, the founder and president of Jingyan Group, took the initiative to befriend him and had his secretary, Fan Jingang, communicate with him in advance.

"Mr. Ye specifically wanted to meet with me? I wonder what you intend to discuss?" Han Tao asked unhurriedly.

Fan Jingang hurriedly explained the pros and cons, his tone becoming more anxious: "Mr. Han, you can accurately predict individual stocks, so you must also be clear about the current market environment."

The stock market experienced increased volatility in the second half of the year, with external capital eyeing the market closely. Many real estate companies and industrial groups faced immense pressure to stabilize their stock prices.

Although Jingyan Group has a solid foundation in high-end real estate and urban renewal projects in Shanghai, it could not withstand the chain reaction of panic caused by the overall market downturn.

Your holding of Jingyan Group's stock indicates your confidence in the company's development direction, which Mr. Ye finds very honorable.

However, the eight million shares in Min's possession are too crucial, representing a significant amount of capital that can influence the short-term market trend.

Mr. Ye had no other intentions; firstly, he wanted to meet Mr. Han, the new shareholder, in person.

  

Secondly, we also hope to reach a tacit understanding with you, to understand your subsequent investment plans, and to avoid unnecessary speculation and panic selling in the market.

After a pause, Fan Jingang added a sentence that Ye Jinyan had personally instructed him to say:

"Mr. Ye has always respected investors with vision and long-term perspective. This invitation was made purely in his personal capacity."

The location will be entirely determined by Mr. Han; it could be a teahouse or private banquet hall that you are familiar with, or even the top-floor president's office of the Jingyan Group. The time will be entirely in line with Mr. Han's available schedule.

Han Tao pondered for a moment, weighing the pros and cons in his mind. He had considered Ye Jinyan's response when he offered so many stock rewards, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Jingyan Group is a leading local real estate company in Shanghai. Ye Jinyan himself has a keen eye and acts with composure. He is by no means an ordinary businessman who is short-sighted and profit-driven.

His invitation was primarily motivated by a desire to stabilize the group's stock price, so there was no reason for me to refuse the meeting.

Moreover, both Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun will have intricate ties with the Jingyan Group in the future, so establishing a positive relationship with Ye Jinyan in advance would be entirely beneficial.

Especially regarding Zhu Suosuo, after overhearing her conversation with Jiang Nansun, Han Tao already knew that the gilded plot had begun, and he didn't want Zhu Suosuo to be deceived by Master Ma.

In the storyline, it is likely that Master Ma had a sudden change of heart when Zhu Suosuo was delivering documents today, and impersonated Ye Jinyan to invite Zhu Suosuo to dinner.

Later, when the restaurant owner exposed him, he impersonated a high-ranking member of the Jingyan Group, claiming to be Ye Jinyan's right-hand man, in order to gain Zhu Suosuo's trust.

Surprisingly, this tactic worked, and he successfully won over Zhu Suosuo.

Therefore, Han Tao had always been curious about this matter in his previous life.

Master Ma pretended to be a wealthy man, not only taking her to enjoy lavish meals, but also giving her many valuable gifts.

So, during their time together, did Master Ma actually win over Zhu Suosuo?

At the time, Han Tao was particularly interested in this, believing that any man would choose to take advantage of it.

But now, he absolutely will not allow such a thing to happen again, not even intimate acts like kissing.

He couldn't control it before, but now that he knows Zhu Suosuo, he will never let this situation happen again.

"I understand what Secretary Fan means. Since it is President Ye's kind invitation, it is naturally inappropriate to refuse."

Han Tao's tone softened, "There's another open class this afternoon, you can come after 3 p.m.."

As for the location, let's set it at Jingyan Group. It'll be more appropriate for me to visit President Ye there."

Fan Jingang was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly agreed: "That's great! Thank you for your understanding and support, Mr. Han. I also apologize again for disturbing you today!"

I will report to General Manager Ye immediately to make arrangements for your reception and reserve a private parking space for you.

I will be waiting for you in the lobby on the first floor of the group building at 4 PM.

"Secretary Fan, you're too kind. That's settled then. See you this afternoon!" After finalizing the meeting time and place, the two exchanged a few brief pleasantries and then hung up the phone.

Han Tao put away his phone, took a big gulp of tea, and then calmed down to sort out the whole story.

The three million shares of Jingyan Group that the system rewarded him with were merely fixed assets for long-term value preservation in his eyes. He never imagined that they would alarm the top management of the group in such a short time.

After all, the stock market crash of 2015 swept through the entire A-share market, leaving countless retail investors deeply trapped and financial institutions frequently fleeing with their funds.

It can be said that all listed companies are walking on thin ice, and the slightest disturbance to their stock prices could lead to a precipitous drop.

However, Han Tao later gave him several more big gift packages, which he opened all last night, including five million shares of Jingyan Group stock.

Including the previous three million shares, he now holds circulating shares worth two small target market values.

This is tantamount to holding a gate on the short-term stock price of Jingyan Group. No group leader could sit idly by and ignore it.
