Chapter 229: Total Defeat
±For the entire morning, Huangfu Yuanzhou was nervously watching the direction of the stock market. Due to excessive nervousness, his palms were already full of sweat.
The Huangfu family has always been the leader among the five major families. Since Huangfu Yuanzhou took over the family, the development of the entire family has also shown a steady upward trend.
China has gone through decades of development. If it still wants to use the old methods, it will inevitably be eliminated by the overall situation.
For example, the development momentum of some emerging families in coastal cities cannot be underestimated. Therefore, the five major families, including the Huangfu family, have begun to seek corporate transformation. For example, the energy and communications industries under the Huangfu family have performed very well.
However, this excellence is only relative. A closer comparison reveals that some families have a stronger momentum than the Huangfu family.
When Huangfu Yuanzhou learned that the Song and Li families had joined forces to enter the communications industry, he took advantage of the situation and planned to bring the Jiang family into the partnership, taking the opportunity to seize some of the Jiang family's assets.
It has been nearly half a year since this plan was formulated, and this is also the first major operation planned by Huangfu Yuanzhou. He does not allow any mistakes to occur.
The thin man Xu Guoping knocked on the door and entered the office, saying, "Young Master, everything is going according to plan. It's lunchtime now, should we go eat something first?"
"Not going." Huangfu Yuanzhou shook his head, his eyes still on the monitor.
"Young Master, don't worry!" Xu Guoping knew what Huangfu Yuanzhou was worried about and smiled, "We have invited industry elites. Unless the Jiang family can come up with an extra 300 billion yuan, there will be absolutely no problems."
Huangfu Yuanzhou rubbed his eyelids, which had been twitching since morning, and said, "It's better to be careful. I have a feeling something will go wrong today."

Huangfu Yuanzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief after waiting until the market closed at 11:30 am.
Xu Guoping also came in at this time to report, "Including the Shen family's 70 billion, a total of 130 billion has been invested. Both of the Jiang family's listed companies are already overbought. We will sell them immediately after the market opens this afternoon."
"The Jiang family should be able to raise some funds to save themselves, but this amount is just a drop in the bucket." Xu Guoping smiled and continued, "When the stock price hits rock bottom, we'll invest in a buyback. By the time the market closes tonight, the Jiang family's funding chain will be completely broken, and the two companies will change hands."
Huangfu Yuanzhou nodded, as if remembering something. He asked, "Has Zhengqi not been contacted yet?"
"No," Xu Guoping said, "I haven't seen him yet, but I've already notified them. Someone is trying to contact him now, and they'll report back as soon as they get in touch."
"This piece of crap." Huangfu Yuanzhou shook his head and said, "Go and arrange something. I'll have lunch in the office."
"Okay." Xu Guoping agreed.
Huangfu Yuanzhou and Xu Guoping simply ordered two dishes and had a few bites in the office.
When the market opened in the afternoon, with Huangfu Yuanzhou's nod, the stocks that the Huangfu family had acquired in the morning immediately began to be sold.
Huangfu Yuanzhou stared closely at the trend, wanting to see the stock prices of the two listed companies of the Jiang family plummet.
But soon, his face turned pale.
Theoretically, if a company's stock price is overbought, it will enter a downward trend even if there is no heavy selling.
Half an hour had passed since the Huangfu family started selling off their shares, but the prices of these two stocks had not fluctuated significantly. The only possible reason for this was that someone was trying to challenge the Huangfu family!
However, this idea was quickly rejected by Huangfu Yuanzhou himself.
Apart from a few family members and the Shen family, the Jiang family's collaborators, no outsiders would know about the suppression of the Jiang family.
Moreover, he had just issued the order in the morning, and even the few traders he invited were only informed of the news at the last minute.
There was no way his family would leak the news, and it was even more impossible for the Shen family to do so, after all, their family had 70 billion yuan in the funds.
Huangfu Yuanzhou was certain that the Jiang family had very little money left after taking out 150 billion. So who was this mysterious opponent who suddenly appeared, and what was his purpose?
At this time, Xu Guoping rushed into the office panting and said, "We have encountered a mysterious opponent. What should we do now?"
Huangfu Yuanzhou frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Stop selling and continue buying for now to see how the opponent reacts!"
"Yes!" Xu Guoping nodded, turned around and went out to give the order.
An hour later, Huangfu Yuanzhou's face became even uglier.
He really couldn't imagine that there was any troublemaker with such great power. Could it be that today's anomaly attracted the attention of some international speculators?
This time, Xu Guoping didn't even knock on the door. He walked into the office in a panic and said, "Young Master, something happened!"
"What's going on?" Huangfu Yuanzhou asked in a deep voice.
"Xinkai received an order from abroad two weeks ago," Xu Guoping said. "They paid 5% more for 50,000 tons of polysilicon."
Huangfu Yuanzhou nodded and said, "I know about this matter. Is there any problem?"
Last month, Xinkai Energy Co., Ltd., a new energy production company under the Huangfu family, received an order for 100,000 tons of polysilicon. However, because the quantity required by the other party was too large, Xinkai could not provide so many products at once, so it reported it to him.
Finally, after negotiation between the two parties, the other party agreed to pay an additional 5% of the price, but required that the goods must be delivered on time, otherwise the other party would be compensated for all losses caused.
After some calculations, he concluded that Xinkai's production capacity could meet the order if it was rushed, and the other party's dismissal conditions were too generous, so Huangfu Yuanzhou personally signed the contract with the other party and was deeply impressed by this incident.
"Today was originally the delivery date, but Xinkai was rushed, and 10,000 tons of product was substandard." Xu Guoping gritted his teeth and said, "Xinkai's director, Wang Hu, knew the consequences of this incident and must have fled. We haven't been able to contact him yet."
"How could this happen?" Huangfu Yuanzhou asked angrily. Chi Juzhao carried it.
If this product cannot be delivered on time, the impact will be fatal!
Xu Guoping lowered his head and said, "Also, there have been some problems with our suppression of the Jiang family's stock. It seems that someone is deliberately working against us."
Huangfu Yuanzhou leaned back in his chair, thought for a moment, and suddenly burst out laughing without warning.
Putting the stock price suppression incident together with the difficulties Xinkai was facing, Huangfu Yuanzhou instantly realized that he had fallen into a trap.
What’s funny is that he thought he was a hunter the second before, but he didn’t expect that he would become someone else’s prey in an instant.
Xu Guoping was startled by this scene and hurriedly shouted, "Young Master!"
Huangfu Yuanzhou stopped laughing and said in a serious tone, "Sell the stocks immediately, no matter what happens! Send someone to investigate the foreign company that placed the order with Xinkai. Tell them to find Wang Hu, dead or alive!"
Xu Guoping nodded solemnly, then immediately turned around and walked out.
Huangfu Yuanzhou no longer had the mood to look at the direction of the stock market. After pushing the monitor on the table to the ground, he leaned back on the sofa with an angry face.
He has already lost this war without gunpowder, and lost miserably.
What’s important now is how much loss this will bring to the Huangfu family!
"Jiang Tiantong, I really underestimated you!" Huangfu Yuanzhou murmured.
————
Tang Shuo was so anxious that he scratched his head after hearing the news reported by Du Bing in the morning. In contrast, Jiang Tiantong was not anxious or annoyed at all. After making a phone call, he didn't even ask about the follow-up situation.
After finally waiting for the stock market to close, Jiang Tiantong received a call and said to Tang Shuo, "Let's go to a celebration tonight."
Celebration?
Tang Shuo patted his forehead. Was he hallucinating? "What did you just say?"
"Just follow me." Jiang Tiantong said.
