Volume 4 Crazy Growth 2017 Chapter 814: A Little Interlude
During this period, just as Zhou Dongsheng was returning to the secondary market with high spirits, a bomb that had been buried in the stock market for a long time finally began to show its fangs.
Who is this bomb? The answer is self-evident.
That is the Suffocating Man who is suffocating for his dream, a financial tycoon who calls the shots in the capital market, fooling a group of experienced old foxes around and making them pay for his dream together.
Originally, Zhou Dongsheng was just optimistic about new energy. While observing BYD, the leading stock, he also took a look at the many talented people in the sector.
From the perspective of an experienced person, the real leader among these new car-making forces is definitely the one who can do it best, whether it is his foresight for the future, the pie he has drawn, or the beautiful PPT...
They have painted a blueprint for the future that is full of infinite imagination for countless investors and users. If it can really be realized, it will definitely be a feat worthy of being recorded in history.
However, fake is just fake after all. No matter how much you embellish it, it can never become true. People who really do practical things usually don't have so many tricks, and the series of tricks used by the suffocating public to do bad things...
Even when the truth was revealed, it was still a classic case that amazed many people and was constantly analyzed and reviewed.
However, at this moment, it is just the beginning. On April 14, Leshi suddenly released an announcement on the progress of its major asset reorganization.
The last two days happened to be the weekend, and the release of this announcement undoubtedly made full use of this time gap, even leaving the entire market with no time to react.
Afterwards, it once again resorted to the trump card of suspension of trading, and applied to the exchange for a suspension of trading starting from April 17, and brazenly stated in the announcement that the suspension was expected to last no more than 5 trading days.
And the date of resumption of trading will be announced together with the 2016 annual financial report...
There is no doubt that this is a delaying tactic, and the huge market seems to have sensed something is wrong, but they may not have thought...
Things turned out to be far more shocking than they had imagined. Once this long-buried bomb exploded, the degree of turmoil it caused within a certain range was, without exaggeration, the highest level of turmoil ever experienced by any enterprise to date.
Well, of course, let’s not talk about the issue of the new generation replacing the old one for now (funny).
However, speaking solely of the suspension of trading, given that Leshi had suspended trading three times last year, this unconventional measure has become a routine for Leshi.
As a result, the 280,000 shareholders were completely unaware of the impending thunder and only thought it was a technical adjustment.
After all, when 2017 just kicked off, Mr. Sun from China Fortune Land Development rushed into the market without stopping and generously donated a huge amount of cash of 15 billion to help the situation!
At the press conference for the signing of the cooperation agreement, Mr. Suffocation smiled extremely brightly and was as happy as a fool, while Mr. Sun on the side had a faint smile on his face, as if he felt that he had picked up a great bargain.
However, when he gradually uncovered the mess of Leshi, he suddenly understood, "What a fucking surprise is!"
As Leshi officially suspended trading, the company humanely issued a "Letter to Shareholders" to reassure people, and claimed that the company's revenue last year exceeded 20 billion and its market value exceeded 60 billion.
In 2017, we will achieve full profitability and so on.
The general meaning is not difficult to see, that is, don't panic, the problem is not big, keep calm and we can win...
As for the actual situation, of course those who understand will understand.
From the beginning to the end, although he knew that Leshi was profitable, Zhou Dongsheng had no impulse to wade into this muddy water. After all, the water here was too deep, and Zhou Dongsheng was afraid that he could not control it.
However, now that the building is about to collapse and the situation is hopeless, there is obviously little point in me getting involved.
Today, these few things are somewhat insignificant to Zhou Dongsheng.
Zhou Dongsheng just took it as a chance to watch the fun and have some fun, but in the end it was more important for him to get back to his own business.
With Zhou Dongsheng's instructions, Zhang Xiaoguang naturally perked up and plunged directly into the stock market under the name of Dongsheng Investment. He targeted BYD stock and began to buy it in large quantities.
There is no intention of hiding anything, they just enter the market blatantly and show that they are optimistic about this stock. For a stock like this with a market value of hundreds of billions and a strong foundation, there are naturally hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the market.
In addition to those institutions that enter the market directly from the primary market, many hot money and small-scale institutions will naturally stay here. After all, the market is not big, but it is not small either, right?
Although Zhou Dongsheng has not paid attention to the changes in the secondary market for a long time, his legend is still circulating in the stock market, and many investors regard him as a representative figure of individual investors.
After all, in order to create momentum, Zhou Dongsheng had previously disclosed to the outside world that he had accumulated original capital from the epic market trend in 2015.
And with the digging of some caring people, the story itself has been added with a lot of legendary color.
A grassroots retail investor who rose from the secondary market rushed into the primary market and achieved an astonishing performance in the primary market. He also made it onto the rich list and became the youngest billionaire on the list...
Such a record alone is enough to make countless retail investors worship him as a god and regard him as an idol. After all, Zhou Dongsheng has realized their unattainable dreams!
Therefore, when Dongsheng Investment swaggered into the market and began to make large purchases, it naturally attracted the attention of countless onlookers, some of whom even seemed to smell something unusual.
Could it be that... Zhou Dongsheng heard some news that another bull market is about to come?
You know, it has been almost two years since the A-share market reached its epic height of 5,178 points in 2015... The A-share market has still not recovered and is still hovering around 3,000 points.
From time to time, we will take you to relive the classic "3000-point" defense battle, which made many investors lose their minds.
The title of China's No. 1 pay-to-win mobile game is absolutely well-deserved.
Therefore, when Zhou Dongsheng returned to the secondary market with the reputation he had built in the primary market and began to buy heavily, he naturally attracted the attention of many interested people.
Moreover, Zhou Dongsheng continues the "style" of the primary market, that is, he never plays the strategy of casting a wide net to catch more fish, but has clear goals. He truly implements the style of valuing quality over quantity to the end.
When a large number of buy orders poured into BYD's stock, even many institutions that had been lying on the sidelines couldn't help but perk up their spirits, eager to try their hand at Zhou Dongsheng, the upstart, and see how capable he was.
However, Zhou Dongsheng seemed oblivious to the undercurrents in the market. He didn't even know that he had such a reputation in the stock market. If he knew...
I guess I have to be secretly happy.
After instructing Zhang Xiaoguang to buy as much BYD as possible to complete the position, Zhou Dongsheng also took advantage of the opportunity to get a piece of Leshi's melon. After this shot, he had already moved to another place and was well versed in the essence of guerrilla warfare.
At this time, Zhou Dongsheng and his men calmly arrived at the Mihayo headquarters, wanting to pay attention to this investment project that he had almost forgotten about for the first time in a long time.
It is worth mentioning that with the launch of "Honkai Impact 3", after completing the groundwork for the Honkai trilogy, Mihayo has become more mature and gradually began to have stronger confidence and want to do something big.
For this reason, Mihayo has set its sights on going public. After all, if you want to achieve great things, you must have money, and raising funds through going public is undoubtedly the only way for most companies, and Mihayo naturally does not want to avoid this practice.
We have also formally drafted an IPO public offering application and submitted it to the China Securities Regulatory Commission to prepare for the listing process.
For this reason, as the company's largest external investor, Zhou Dongsheng naturally had to take advantage of the situation and show some concern.
When Zhou Dongsheng's Rolls-Royce drove to the downstairs of Mihayo's company, Cai Haoyu did not dare to be negligent. Knowing that Zhou Dongsheng, the investor, was about to come, he came to greet him in person.
Zhou Dongsheng didn't pretend to need others to open the door for him. He got out of the car on his own, walked forward with a smile, and opened his arms for a hug.
"It's been a while since I last saw Mr. Cai. You're still as charming as ever!"
"No, no, compared to the triumphant Jay Chou, he is nothing at all..." Cai Haoyu said with a smile. For a senior ACG person, Zhou Dongsheng is simply the protagonist living in the ACG world...
Fortunately, I am also one of the protagonists.
"Hey, let's go, let's talk while walking. Why did Mr. Cai think of going public? If you are short of money, you should ask me. Isn't it being too formal?" Zhou Dongsheng joked familiarly.
"With the release of Honkai Impact 3, the Honkai trilogy is completely concluded . Mihayo has completed a stage of growth. As for the company's next step, I don't have an accurate direction in my mind..."
"In addition to completing the PUBG mobile game license obtained from Jay Chou, I have also been thinking about this issue. If Mihayo wants to continue to grow, it can't always live in its comfort zone..."
Cai Haoyu said in an orderly manner.
Zhou Dongsheng's heart moved slightly when he heard this. Could it be that the project "Origin of All Evil" has not yet been officially approved?
Although he didn't know the exact time point, Zhou Dongsheng also knew that for a large project like this, it was normal for it to take several years to develop.
To this end, the preparatory work such as project establishment in advance also takes a lot of time to prepare. However, after I authorized the mobile game of "PUBG" to Mihayo...
It will still affect the original time process to some extent. After all, Mihayo is still a small workshop at the moment and the manpower is obviously not sufficient.
For this reason, Zhou Dongsheng’s evil taste couldn’t help but surge up in his mind. Otherwise... let himself open the “origin” of all evil?
You know what, this idea is quite tempting!
With little thoughts running through his mind, he joked with Cai Haoyu while a group of people came to the office and sat opposite each other.
"I'd like to give you, the investor, a brief report. Since its launch, Honkai Impact 3 has performed fairly well. The number of players has steadily exceeded 10 million, and the total turnover of the game has exceeded 300 million. Honkai Impact 2 is also performing well..."
"According to this curve, we conservatively estimate that our operating income in the first half of 2017 is expected to exceed 600 million, and our net profit will exceed 400 million..."
Cai Haoyu gave a concise summary, allowing investor Zhou Dongsheng to intuitively understand Mihayo's current situation.
This performance is naturally a drop in the ocean when looking at the entire game market, and is not comparable to the big game companies, especially since Mihayo is still a small workshop deeply involved in the mobile game market.
There are many reskin mobile games on the market, which are covered with the name of a popular IP, and the revenue they can generate is not inferior to that of MihaYo. This is the huge profit of mobile games.
However, for the self-research and development path chosen by Mihayo, this achievement is already quite impressive, otherwise it would not have the confidence to choose to go public.
"Not bad, not bad. As expected, games still make money. The profit is really tempting. However, Mr. Cai's estimate is a bit too conservative."
"If the PUBG mobile game project is launched, I believe its profitability will surprise Mr. Cai, and I believe the performance will not be inferior to that of the PC game..."
Zhou Dongsheng happily pointed out Jiangshan Road, and mentioned that PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds had a revenue of 1 billion US dollars last year...
This made Cai Haoyu feel a little frustrated. His Honkai Impact 3rd trilogy was actually no match for this game...
This game was put together by Zhou Dongsheng, a layman, after he hired a game producer.
Despite the support of the big pig factory, it is obviously not the pig factory that plays a dominant role in this project.
The most fearful thing about everything is comparison. When compared like this, it hurts my self-esteem a little bit...
"We are doing our best. We expect that the mobile game will be available for online testing in one or two months..." Cai Haoyu said absentmindedly.
Zhou Dongsheng then changed the subject, "Look, Mr. Cai, you have the Honkai Impact 3rd in your hands, plus a PUBG mobile game project, which is enough to generate a huge cash flow to provide a steady stream of blood for the company..."
"And I believe that Mr. Cai's original intention has always been to concentrate on making games. If that's the case, why should he be obsessed with going public? After all, going public is also for fundraising. Wouldn't it be faster to keep your destiny firmly in your own hands?"
Zhou Dongsheng's words, spoken lightly, were like a bolt from the blue, shocking Cai Haoyu.
"Not going public?" Cai Haoyu muttered, his eyes lit up and his heart was excited.
Then he slapped his head and said, "That's right! It doesn't have to be listed!"
It was like a word that awakened Cai Haoyu from a dream, and he suddenly realized that his previous thinking had been wrong.
Just like completing a task in a game, they think that "going public" is the only way for the company to succeed, so they rush to complete the task but ignore other possibilities.
This kind of thinking cycle is normal for most people.
"That's right. Also, Mr. Cai, do you want to do something big? Once it's done, Mihayo will have the potential to become one of the biggest game companies and a symbol in the minds of countless players. It's not impossible for it to become famous overseas..."
Zhou Dongsheng's gentle and persuasive words were like the devil's whisper, full of infinite temptation.
