How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 292

292. Securing 15%+5% Equity in Tencent Technology

Gu Qingxiu followed the secretary to the chairman’s office at Haicheng Bank.

Secretary: “Chairman, Mr. Yang, Miss Gu has arrived.”

Zhou Wenming nodded with a smile, saying, “Okay, let her in.”

The secretary invited Gu Qingxiu into the office.

Gu Qingxiu immediately recognized Yang Chen’s back.

Yang Chen turned around and said with a smile, “Miss Gu, why are you so late? I thought you wouldn’t dare to come.”

Gu Qingxiu: “Mr. Yang! You… Why are you here?”

Yang Chen: “Didn’t I say I would stand up for you?”

Zhou Wenming: “Miss Gu probably doesn’t know, but Mr. Yang is the largest shareholder in our Haicheng Bank Group. If he’s unhappy, my position isn’t secure either.”

Yang Chen: “Chairman Zhou, you’re embarrassing me. My position as the largest shareholder is just for show. How would I dare to go against the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC)?”

Zhou Wenming: “Haha… If Mr. Yang really turned against me and forced SASAC to replace me, I might really be replaced. Miss Gu, please, have a seat.”

Gu Qingxiu was in a daze. She knew Yang Chen was wealthy from seeing his mansion, but she didn’t know he was this rich, being the largest shareholder of Haicheng Bank.

Haicheng Bank is a listed company controlled by SASAC. For Yang Chen to be the largest shareholder, he must have at least tens of billions [of yuan, the Chinese currency], right?

“Mr. Yang, you… you’re actually the largest shareholder of Haicheng Bank? Then why do you still deliver food?” Gu Qingxiu asked, puzzled.

Yang Chen replied with a smile, “I’m just doing it to pass the time. If I didn’t do anything, I’d become useless.”

This reason was truly undeniable. Others deliver food to survive, but this big shot does it to avoid becoming decadent. That’s the difference.

Yang Chen pulled out a chair and invited Gu Qingxiu to sit down and talk.

Gu Qingxiu quickly thanked him and sat down, recounting her experiences and what she knew about the rumors.

According to her, Li Bo and Zhang Yuan used methods such as spiking drinks and sending women to the wrong rooms, or outright coercion, to sleep with almost every decent-looking woman in the North Gate branch.

Zhou Wenming interjected, “What scoundrels! It seems Mr. Yang is right. It’s time for us to conduct a rectification of work style and ideology throughout the entire group. Mr. Yang, I think you should propose a shareholders’ meeting in your capacity as the largest shareholder. Such a big matter needs to be discussed and voted on by the shareholders. I wouldn’t dare to decide unilaterally. I always believe that when you see a cockroach, it has already infested the darkness. This problem is definitely not unique to the North Gate branch; other branches must have it too. If we really take action, it will inevitably cause personnel turmoil within Haicheng Bank. Only someone like you, Mr. Yang, can speak up. I wouldn’t dare to initiate such a thing.”

Yang Chen: “Does that mean you want me to be the fall guy?”

Zhou Wenming: “Haha… Mr. Yang, don’t misunderstand. I don’t mean that. Although I am the chairman, I only represent SASAC. I don’t hold any shares myself. If I were to take action, I would have to report it level by level to SASAC.

After the leaders approve and consider it, a decision can be made, but who knows how long that would take. But you are the largest shareholder, and you can propose a shareholders’ meeting with just one word. Mr. Yang, take Miss Gu’s matter as an opportunity to propose a shareholders’ meeting. No matter what the final outcome, you are exercising your shareholder rights and doing it for the good of Haicheng Bank. Everyone will praise you and won’t think you’re trying to cause trouble.”

Being able to represent SASAC in managing Haicheng Bank, Zhou Wenming’s ability to do ideological work is definitely top-notch. His words were impeccable.

Again, Yang Chen doesn’t have to participate in the management of the companies he holds shares in, but he must manage people and things that may affect his dividends.

Yang Chen: “Chairman Zhou, you’re right. I’ve lost my ability to think and can only follow your advice.”

Zhou Wenming: “Haha… Mr. Yang, don’t tease me. Someone like you can do anything as long as you don’t rebel.”

“Haha…” The two laughed.

After a while, the secretary came to report that Li Bo and Zhang Yuan had arrived.

Zhou Wenming’s face immediately darkened, and he said, “Let them in!”

The secretary nodded, went out, and brought Li Bo and Zhang Yuan in.

“Chairman Zhou, good morning. Long time no see, how have you been?” Li Bo said with a smile.

Zhang Yuan also quickly said, “Hello, Chairman Zhou. I am Zhang Yuan, the general manager of the North Gate branch.”

At this time, Yang Chen and Gu Qingxiu both turned to look at the two.

Zhang Yuan was shocked. Why is this food delivery guy here too?

Is he here to testify?

Zhou Wenming slammed the table and said angrily, “Li Bo, Zhang Yuan, you two have been living it up in the North Gate branch!”

Li Bo quickly denied, “Chairman Zhou, please don’t listen to their nonsense. I have always been conscientious and have never done anything to betray Haicheng Bank or the organization. My loyalty is as clear as the sun and moon!”

Zhang Yuan: “Yes, yes, yes, I can testify to that. Chairman Zhou, you will understand the truth when you see these.”

Zhang Yuan handed the prepared resignation letter and so-called evidence to Zhou Wenming.

After reading it, Zhou Wenming handed it to Yang Chen, saying, “Mr. Yang, take a look.”

Zhang Yuan whispered to Li Bo, “This guy is that food delivery guy.”

Li Bo nodded, sneering inwardly, thinking, “You’re really asking for it, daring to testify for her! Just wait, if I don’t make you lose your job, I’ll change my name to yours!”

Sigh, if you want to recognize me as your father, just say so. There’s no need to be so deliberate…

Yang Chen glanced at the evidence and then said to Gu Qingxiu, “Take a look yourself and refute it.”

Gu Qingxiu nodded, looked at the evidence provided by Zhang Yuan, and immediately became furious, saying, “It’s fake, it’s all fake. Zhang Hang was pursuing me, and I didn’t agree. How can you say I harassed him? These so-called testimonies are all untrustworthy. They were all forced into sleeping with Li Bo. When I came, they begged me not to come and not to make things bigger, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to explain it to their families. This is all temporary fabricated evidence, all fake.”

Zhang Yuan: “Gu Qingxiu, you keep saying it’s fake, how can you prove it’s fake? But I can bring all the witnesses to confront you, and they will prove that these are all true.”

Gu Qingxiu: “They will definitely listen to you. Can you trust their testimony?”

Zhang Yuan: “If their testimonies can’t be trusted because they are interested parties, can you trust the testimony of this food delivery guy? It’s ridiculous! You two want to blackmail us, but you’ve come to the wrong place! Haicheng Bank is not someone you can blackmail! You’re too arrogant, daring to give false testimony for her. We, Haicheng Bank, will definitely investigate this matter to the end!”

Yang Chen smiled and took out his phone, playing a recording.

This recording was the conversation between Yang Chen, Gu Qingxiu, and Zhang Yuan after Yang Chen entered the private room last night.

Zhang Yuan was shocked and cursed, “You dare to record secretly!”

Then, Yang Chen showed Zhou Wenming the conversation between the delivery driver account and Gu Qingxiu.

Zhou Wenming immediately understood what was going on.

Li Bo and Zhang Yuan used their positions to try to sleep with Gu Qingxiu, and the helpless Gu Qingxiu had to ask the delivery guy for help by ordering takeout.

“Bang!” Zhou Wenming slammed the table and stood up.

“How dare you do such dirty things!” Zhou Wenming roared.

Li Bo quickly argued, “Chairman Zhou, this recording may not be real. Courts don’t even accept recordings as evidence now.”

Zhou Wenming: “Bullshit! If the court doesn’t accept it, we will! Mr. Yang is the new major shareholder of our Haicheng Bank. Would he falsely accuse you two small fries for no reason?”

Li Bo and Zhang Yuan were shocked and widened their eyes. How could he be the new major shareholder of Haicheng Bank?

If he could spend over 10 billion to acquire 16% of the shares, why would he need to deliver food?

Zhang Yuan: “Chairman Zhou, is it possible that they have the same name and got the wrong person? He really is a food delivery guy. I saw it with my own eyes, there’s absolutely no mistake.”

Zhou Wenming glared at him and said, “Do you think everyone is like you, showing off their abilities everywhere and seeking personal gain? Mr. Yang only cares about investing and dividends, not management. Can’t he deliver food to experience life when he has nothing to do? He’s also the second largest shareholder of Meituan Group! Do I need to tell you everything?”

“Ah?” Li Bo and Zhang Yuan exclaimed in unison.

Now they understood why their complaint against Yang Chen was unsuccessful and why the branch was unwilling to fire him. How could the branch manager dare to fire the second largest shareholder of the group?

Li Bo sighed inwardly, “It’s over, it’s over, it’s over… I’m in big trouble now.”

Li Bo immediately made a decision, turned around and slapped Zhang Yuan, scolding, “I told you not to do this kind of thing, but you wouldn’t listen. Chairman, I’m really wronged. There are bad people among my subordinates who have been attacking me with sugar-coated bullets every day. I resisted for a long time, but finally, on a drunken night, I couldn’t resist the temptation and made a big mistake. One wrong step led to another, and that’s how I got to where I am today. Chairman, I am guilty, and I am willing to be punished, but I still have a passion for Haicheng Bank. Please give me a chance to redeem myself. I will dedicate everything I have left to Haicheng Bank.”

Wow, this guy is a master. The way he said that really made people want to slap him twice to wake him up and stop him from daydreaming.

Zhang Yuan was also very smart. As long as Li Bo remained the branch manager, his future wouldn’t be too bleak. Li Bo would definitely arrange something for him.

At this time, taking all the responsibility was his wisest choice.

There’s a saying, “I’ll take the blame for you, and you’ll help me get reinstated.” Zhang Yuan understood this principle very well.

“Chairman, Mr. Yang, Miss Gu, it’s all my fault. I did these dirty things to please Branch Manager Li. I am guilty and willing to accept any punishment. Branch Manager Li is also a victim. Please don’t blame him. I can accept any punishment. I deserve it and have no complaints!” Zhang Yuan said very sincerely.

Anyway, this kind of thing is only a moral issue and doesn’t involve economic crimes. At most, he’ll just be fired.

But if Zhang Yuan takes all the responsibility, Li Bo will definitely arrange other opportunities for him in the future.

If that doesn’t work, he can always go to another branch in another city and be a manager, right?

Yang Chen said with a smile, “You two are still using these old tricks. Don’t worry, we will investigate thoroughly and won’t wrong anyone or let anyone go. Secretary, call the other shareholders and tell them that I, as the major shareholder, am proposing a shareholders’ meeting to discuss the issue of ideological and work style rectification throughout the group! You two want to sacrifice a pawn to protect the king and get transferred to another place, right? I’ll make you offend everyone in Haicheng Bank, and I’ll see which branch will want you! Chairman Zhou, I have something else to do, so I’ll leave first. Miss Gu, come with me.”

Gu Qingxiu nodded and quickly got up to follow Yang Chen.

Zhou Wenming also quickly got up to see Yang Chen off.

Li Bo and Zhang Yuan felt weak all over, and their legs were shaking. Then, they slumped to the floor.

If the entire Haicheng Bank Group undergoes ideological and work style rectification because of Li Bo and Zhang Yuan, they will definitely offend everyone in the group. Not to mention being transferred to another place, they won’t even be able to stay in the banking industry.

This means they will definitely have to say goodbye to banking and even the financial industry.

If Yang Chen is going to take action to rectify them, would he leave them a way out?

They still want to sacrifice a pawn to protect the king and get transferred to another place? They’re really thinking too much!

Yang Chen left with Gu Qingxiu.

“Miss Gu, what are your plans for the future?” Yang Chen asked.

Gu Qingxiu shook her head and said, “I don’t know. Maybe I’ll change industries.”

Yang Chen: “You got into the bank through your own ability, right?”

Gu Qingxiu nodded and said, “Sigh… What’s the point of getting in? I thought I could achieve something with my own ability, but I died before I could even start. This kind of thing happened before my internship was even over.”

Being able to get into the bank, even if she’s not that outstanding, she’s still better than many people.

Yang Chen found Jin Ming’s phone number, handed the phone to Gu Qingxiu, and said, “Write down this number, call her, and say that Yang Chen introduced you. Let her give you an interview. If you can pass the graduate interview, you can stay and work, and she will focus on training you.”

Gu Qingxiu quickly wrote down the number and said, “Mr. Yang, is this your company?”

Yang Chen: “Yes! It’s my investment company. You can be a financial analyst, a trader, or something else. There are many options to choose from. As a fresh graduate, you have solid professional theoretical knowledge, and the company will focus on training you according to your wishes.”

Gu Qingxiu: “Mr. Yang, thank you so much. If I hadn’t been lucky enough to meet you, my life might have been ruined. You are my benefactor, even more than my own parents! As long as you give me a bite to eat, I will work in your company for the rest of my life and will never betray you.”

Yang Chen: “Haha… Okay! I believe you. Then you can take a taxi there yourself. I won’t take you. Oh, here are two invitation letters. Take them to Jin Ming.”

Yang Chen pulled over to the side of the road and handed two LVMH Group invitation letters to Gu Qingxiu.

Gu Qingxiu: “Wow, LV invitation letters?”

Yang Chen: “Yeah.”

Gu Qingxiu: “Why are there so many?”

Yang Chen: “I am the second largest shareholder of LVMH Group, so I can have as many as I want. If you have time, go too. Prepare a poster of Yang Mi in advance, and when you see her, shout her name loudly. You know how to be a fan, right?”

Gu Qingxiu happily took off, excited that she could see Yang Mi.

“Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Yang, don’t worry, I’ll shout until my voice is hoarse. You can punish me however you want!” Gu Qingxiu said.

Yang Chen laughed and said, “Okay! Go!”

Gu Qingxiu took the three invitation letters and quickly got out of the car and ran off.

Yang Chen logged into his driver account and prepared to take orders and work.

At this time, the BEEP platform system reminded him that he had received a bad review.

“My boyfriend cheated on me with my best friend, and my best friend is pregnant with his child. I do business with my best friend, and she emptied my money. I am the legal representative and bear the responsibility for compensation. Now these two cheaters are using the money I worked so hard to earn to travel to Sanya [a popular resort city in China], and my parents have been harassed by debt collectors many times. Now, only if I die can they live in peace. But this driver insisted on tricking me down, and after the police comrades did some ideological work, I didn’t want to die again. But if I don’t die, how can I repay the debt of over 1 million? I can’t even repay it by selling myself! I’m almost 30 years old, and I can’t even sell for a good price. How am I supposed to live? I know the driver is well-intentioned, but your good intentions have done bad things, you know? I don’t want to die now, but I can’t repay the debt, and my parents are in poor health. My dad relies on medication to stay alive. Are you trying to make my whole family die?”

Damn, this is simply a human tragedy. Even the screenwriters of melodramatic family dramas couldn’t come up with such a story.

At this time, the system issued a reminder.

“Congratulations, Master, for receiving a bad review. The system rewards Master with the 15% equity released by Naspers, and acquires 5% equity from the secondary market, and rewards it to Master together. The equity transfer documents and other materials will be delivered to Master’s home tomorrow morning. Please pay attention to check them!”

“Haha…” Yang Chen laughed happily.

The people at the Chamber of Commerce are still contacting partners everywhere to raise money to acquire the 15% equity released by Naspers. Now it’s all Yang Chen’s.

Yang Chen was in a great mood and decided to help this tragic woman get justice.

He sent a message to Liu Xueqing, the platform customer service representative.

“Xueqing, I’ll send you a screenshot. Please help me check her registration information and send me her number. I want to help her.”

Soon, Liu Xueqing replied with a message, sending Yang Chen a screenshot of the girl’s registration information.

Yang Chen immediately called her.

Soon, the call connected.

Yang Chen: “Hello, is this Miss Chen Songyun?”

Chen Songyun: “Yes. Who is this? Your voice sounds a little familiar.”

Yang Chen: “I am your savior!”

Chen Songyun: “Oh, you’re that hateful driver! You bastard, you’ve ruined me, you know that? I finally made up my mind to die, but you tricked me down, and after the police did some ideological work last night, I didn’t want to die again. But if I don’t die, I don’t have money to repay the debt, and my parents will be implicated. Why are you still calling me? What, do you want me to delete the bad review for you?”

Yang Chen: “I’m not asking you to delete the bad review. I want to help you deal with those two cheaters. Let’s talk in person. Where are you now? I’ll pick you up.”

Chen Songyun: “Really? How can you help me deal with them?”

Yang Chen: “Let’s talk in person.”

Chen Songyun: “I’m at the Mingjiao Business Club for an interview. I’m in line now.”

Yang Chen: “Damn, are you really going to sell yourself? Uh, sorry, I’m being a bit too direct.”

Chen Songyun: “You’re right, I’m going to sell myself. What else can I do? It’s over 1 million, and with interest, I’ll never be able to repay it in my lifetime. My dad still needs to take medicine, and he’s planning to stop taking it and sell the house to repay my debt. I’m almost thirty years old, and I haven’t let them enjoy life yet. I can’t let them become homeless and die in the streets. I’ll just sell myself, just think of it as being possessed by a ghost. I’ll do it for a few years to pay off the debt, go to the hospital for a repair, and I can still be a virgin and marry an honest man.”

Yang Chen: “Damn! This is really a human tragedy. I’m coming over now. Come out, you don’t need to sell yourself. I’ll help you solve the debt problem.”

Chen Songyun: “Big brother, can you not brag? How can a ride-hailing driver help me solve a debt problem of over 1 million? If you can solve it, I’ll let you sleep with me for free for the rest of your life. Can you handle that?”

Yang Chen: “I’m helping you so much, why are you biting the hand that feeds you?”

Chen Songyun: “…”

Yang Chen hung up the phone and drove to the Mingjiao Business Club.

Soon, Yang Chen arrived at the entrance of the club. Chen Songyun was dressed very sexily, standing at the door waiting.

Yang Chen stopped by the side of the road and honked the horn twice.

Chen Songyun recognized Yang Chen’s car and quickly ran over.

“Oh, you’re dressed pretty sexy today! You don’t even need an interview, you’ll definitely get hired! Those fat, greasy old men like you, it’s easy to make ten or eight thousand a night,” Yang Chen joked.

Chen Songyun hit Yang Chen’s arm with her bag and said, “You really are cold-blooded, you have no humanity at all. I’m already so miserable, and you’re still making fun of me?”

Yang Chen: “I told you I would help you solve it, so how are you miserable? Isn’t the most miserable one me? I’m going to help you, and you’re still biting the hand that feeds me, asking me to sleep with you.”

Chen Songyun pursed her lips, unable to speak in anger.

Yang Chen put his phone on the dashboard and said, “Add me as a friend and send me the photos and information of those two cheaters.”

Chen Songyun nodded, added Yang Chen as a friend, and sent Yang Chen the ID cards of the scumbag and the bitchy best friend.

Yang Chen then forwarded them to Qiu Yuhong, ordering him to find out all the information about these two people as quickly as possible, and to accurately locate them in Sanya.

Yang Chen: “Get ready, we’re going to Sanya on Monday. My yacht has arrived, and I’m going to test drive it.”

Chen Songyun rolled her eyes and said, “Big brother, no, stinky little brother, can we not brag? Why don’t you say your plane has arrived?”

Yang Chen: “You bitch, be nice to me, I’m going to avenge you, okay? If it weren’t for the reward you created for me, I wouldn’t bother with you.”

Chen Songyun: “What reward?”

Yang Chen: “None of your business, don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask. Send me your ID card and stuff, and I’ll have someone book the plane tickets together. We’ll go to Sanya on Monday morning.”

Chen Songyun: “This isn’t a new type of scam, is it? Stealing my information to do illegal and criminal things?”

Yang Chen: “Get out of here right now!”

Chen Songyun: “Okay, okay, okay, I won’t say anything. Look at how big your temper is, how can you drive for a ride-hailing service like that? You must get complaints every day.”

Saying that, Chen Songyun sent all her information to Yang Chen.

Yang Chen nodded, waved his hand, and said, “Get lost! Wait for my message.”

Chen Songyun: “Stinky little brother, take me home.”

At this time, Gu Ming, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, sent a message to Yang Chen, saying that he had coordinated with other partners to hold a video conference, asking Yang Chen to log in and participate within ten minutes.

Yang Chen took out his laptop from under the seat, logged into his account, and entered the video conference room.

“I have to go to a meeting, take a taxi yourself,” Yang Chen said.

Chen Songyun: “I’ll just stay here and not say anything, I won’t delay your meeting.”

Yang Chen turned his head and glared at her, scaring her into quickly saying, “Okay, okay, I’ll take a taxi back myself, why are you so fierce? Stinky little brother, big temper, and doesn’t understand romance. Hmph!”

Chen Songyun opened the door and got out of the car, taking a taxi back herself.

Soon, the meeting began.

Gu Ming: “Hello everyone, thank you for taking the time today. Let’s briefly talk about the joint acquisition of Tencent Technology’s 15% equity released by Naspers. I’ve talked to the other partners. Let me introduce Mr. Yang Chen, number 36. He just acquired 16% of Haicheng Bank’s equity and is now a major shareholder. Mr. Yang, please say hello to everyone.”

Yang Chen: “Hello everyone. I am Yang Chen, and I am very happy to be able to have this meeting with you.”

Everyone quickly greeted Yang Chen.

“Hello, Mr. Yang.”

“Mr. Yang is really young and promising! To be able to acquire 16% of Haicheng Bank’s equity, I admire you.”

“What other industries does Mr. Yang have? What industry do you mainly work in?”

…

Yang Chen: “I usually drive for a ride-hailing service, work part-time as a food delivery driver, and occasionally do some investing. It’s not that I’m young and promising, it’s just that I’m lucky.”

All the partners were stunned. This is the person who can spend over 10 billion to acquire 16% of Haicheng Bank’s equity?

Did they get the wrong person?

“Mr. Yang, don’t joke around. With your wealth, how could you drive for a ride-hailing service and deliver food?”

“We are all very sincere in wanting to be friends with Mr. Yang. Mr. Yang, please show some sincerity too.”

“Since we are going to cooperate in acquiring Tencent Technology’s equity, shouldn’t we get to know each other?”

…

Yang Chen picked up his laptop, used the camera to take a picture of the environment inside the car, and said, “See? I really drive for a ride-hailing service, and I have this food delivery uniform. I don’t need to lie to you.”

Everyone was shocked. He really is a guy who drives for a ride-hailing service and delivers food!

Then where did he get so much money to acquire 16% of Haicheng Bank’s equity?

Gu Ming quickly said, “This is easy to understand. Some people are just low-key. Mr. Yang even wants to take all 15% of the equity himself.”

Everyone laughed.

“Haha… How is that possible? To take all 15% of the equity would cost 300 billion. If Mr. Yang has this much money, his total assets must be at least 500 billion. Why can’t we see his name on the rich list?”

“Mr. Yang, are you a spokesperson for a certain consortium?”

“I think that’s possible. Some people are not convenient to come forward and do things, so they hire an ordinary, low-key spokesperson to come forward and do things. This is very common.”

“Mr. Yang, can you introduce us to the consortium behind you?”

“Yes! Everyone is seeking wealth, more friends, more opportunities.”

…

Yang Chen said with a smile, “Since President Gu brought it up, then I’ll tell everyone. I will definitely take all 15% of the equity released by Naspers. In addition, I will also buy some goods in the secondary market and strive to take about 20% of Tencent Technology’s equity. So, I can only say sorry to everyone, you have no chance to bid for the 15% equity released by Naspers. This is also good, saving everyone from worrying about the difference.”

Gu Ming: “Mr. Yang, don’t joke around! We’ve prepared almost everything, don’t really take it all yourself.”

Yang Chen: “You guys are too slow, I’m a simple person. I don’t want to share with others, sorry everyone, I want all of this.”

The other partners still didn’t believe that Yang Chen could take the 300 billion worth of shares by himself.

“Haha… Mr. Yang, don’t scare us! I’m very timid, if you scare me, you have to take responsibility.”

“I don’t believe anyone would invest 300 billion alone to take these shares. Even if there is a consortium that can afford this money, the shareholders of the consortium would never invest so much money to hold these shares.”

“That’s right, this is completely inconsistent with investment rules. If 300 billion in cash is invested, it must be locked in for at least three years and cannot be sold. The stock price may rise or fall during this period, which consortium would do such a stupid thing? Investing this 300 billion in any other industry would have a return rate of at least 30% in three years. This return rate is a sure thing, isn’t it better than an unpredictable stock price?”

“Haha… Mr. Yang, don’t scare us, we still understand a little bit of investment theory.”

“Haha…”

Just then, Gu Ming suddenly said, “No! Look at Tencent Technology’s stock, someone is really buying goods, the stock price has already risen by 3 points!”

Everyone quickly opened their trading software and clicked on Tencent Technology’s stock to take a look.

Sure enough, someone was really buying goods, all of them were large orders of 10,000 shares, and the stock price had already risen by 5 points.

This should be the system sweeping the secondary market to acquire an additional 5% of the equity for Yang Chen, cooperating with the 15% equity released by Naspers, exactly 20% of the equity rewarded to Yang Chen.

Yang Chen said with a smile, “Everyone, take your time and watch. I still have to drive my car to pick up passengers.”

After speaking, Yang Chen exited the meeting.

The people who had just ridiculed Yang Chen for not being able to take the 300 billion worth of shares were all stunned.

“He’s really doing it!”

“No way! How can he have so much money?”

“It seems like he stopped buying goods! I calculated the number of large orders of 10,000 shares, which is about 5% of the total share capital.”

“He said just now that he would buy some goods in the secondary market, and then take the 15% equity from Naspers, striving to get 20% of the equity. He really did what he said!”

“President Gu, who is he? How can he have so much money?”

“He must be a representative of a certain consortium. President Gu, check which consortium he is a representative of!”

…

Gu Ming: “I’ve checked, and there is no information showing that he is related to any consortium. I’m going to call Naspers now to ask about the situation.”

After speaking, Gu Ming called Naspers.

As a result, they were informed that the 15% equity had indeed been sold at a premium of 30%. The buyer requested that their identity not be disclosed and that they wait for the subsequent disclosure of information in accordance with the requirements of the China Securities Regulatory Commission [a regulatory body in China].

Therefore, even if Gu Ming asked, they would not tell him the buyer’s identity.

Hanging up the phone, Gu Ming said with a heavy face, “Everyone, Naspers said that the 15% equity was indeed bought by someone at a premium of 30%. The other party requested that the information not be disclosed temporarily and that they would actively disclose the information in accordance with the requirements of the China Securities Regulatory Commission later.”

“Ah!” Everyone exclaimed in unison.

What investment theory, what consortium, what rich list, it’s all bullshit, it doesn’t work at all with Yang Chen.

The hearts of these investment tycoons were greatly shocked, and they even doubted whether they really understood the Dragon Country’s [a common nickname for China] circle of wealthy people and investment theory.

Otherwise, why is Yang Chen completely outside their scope of knowledge?
