Inside the office of the general manager of Wanguo Securities.
Chen Dong: "Manager Guan, I heard that the Shanghai Stock Exchange is about to be established. I'm thinking of buying some stocks from your securities company when that happens."
Mr. Guan grinned: "Mr. Chen, of course, that's no problem. The Shanghai Stock Exchange will be established next week, and Wanguo Securities, as the underwriter for the stock issuance, is specifically here to sell these stocks."
"How much does Mr. Chen want?"
"Ten million."
Chen Dong raised his index finger and said calmly.
However, when Mr. Guan heard this number, he was shocked.
What a big appetite!
He never expected that this young man would casually mention stocks worth ten million.
This isn't about money.
For a long time, the daily stock trading volume of the soon-to-be-established Shanghai Stock Exchange did not exceed ten million.
A trading volume of ten million shares is equivalent to the total trading volume of the entire country.
Therefore, when Chen Dong mentioned the stock market value of ten million, Boss Guan was extremely shocked.
Mr. Guan said with a wry smile, "Mr. Chen, to be honest, I can only offer stocks worth a maximum of 5 million yuan. The rest will need to be distributed to other branches."
“Okay, it’s a deal then!” Chen Dong blurted out without hesitation.
Manager Guan: "......"
At this moment, his mind was in turmoil.
Whether it's five million or ten million, he always felt that coming from Chen Dong's mouth was as casual as buying cabbage.
Actually, what he thought wasn't wrong.
In Chen Dong's view, it really was just buying cabbage.
The two then reached a preliminary agreement that once Chen Dong's funds were in place, new shares with a total market value of 5 million would be transferred to Chen Dong's name at the stock issuance price.
The next few days.
Chen Dong and Wolong stayed temporarily in Mingzhu City to observe the public's reaction to the establishment of the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
This also indirectly proves whether the trajectory of history has deviated.
The result was obvious; Chen Dong realized he had been overthinking things.
He found that many people were quite indifferent to the upcoming opening of the Shanghai Stock Exchange.
This aligns with historical facts.
The people of Mingzhu City really started to go crazy after the first batch of investors saw their assets skyrocket.
Especially after seeing others make a fortune in the stock market, they belatedly rushed in.
The final outcome was as everyone knows.
Countless people rushed into the Shanghai Stock Exchange waving banknotes, causing stock prices to soar with the influx of funds.
The resulting chain reaction: the stock market became even more overheated.
Later, it was discovered that there were more and more speculators, rather than the initial policy set by the authorities to promote financing channels for listed companies.
Subsequently, a series of policies related to the stock market were introduced.
The most talked-about item is the subscription certificate.
But soon everyone learned that by buying subscription certificates, they could participate in a lottery, and if they won, they could buy newly issued shares.
This is really not much different from winning the lottery.
For a long time, discussions about IPOs in the Chinese stock market never stopped.
The rule that any newly listed stock will rise on its first day of trading has attracted even more people to participate.
At its peak, the queue stretched for over three kilometers.
Scalpers then appeared, queuing up to buy subscription vouchers.
...
Inside the hotel.
Wolong handed the newspaper to Chen Dong, "Boss, here's the newspaper you wanted."
In the past few days, besides having Wolong and the others observe the public's reaction, Chen Dong also made Wolong buy a copy of the newspaper every day.
Stocks, the stock market, and the Shanghai Stock Exchange are still relatively new terms for ordinary people.
It takes time for people to adapt to any new thing.
What Chen Dong needed to see was the public's reaction to the Shanghai Stock Exchange incident as reported in the newspapers.
When Chen Dong saw a news article in the newspaper, he was both happy and a little uneasy.
History is still following its predetermined path.
There was no further shift after his arrival.
[A reporter interviewed Yang Baiwan, a well-known figure in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, about his views on the establishment of the Shanghai Stock Exchange. Yang Baiwan stated: "I don't understand stocks, and I certainly wouldn't buy them easily."]
Yang Baiwan was the first person to become rich overnight because of treasury bonds, and news about him had been serialized in major newspapers and periodicals long before.
Many people who wanted to make their first fortune were inspired by him.
At this time, he publicly stated in the newspaper that he was not optimistic about stocks, and believed that many people would blindly follow suit.
This explains why the Shanghai Stock Exchange was unexpectedly met with a lukewarm reception when it was first established.
This overlapped with the history that Chen Dong knew.
Subsequently, those who had become rich in Shenzhen through stocks saw this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in the Shanghai stock market and poured large sums of money into it, which led to the boom.
At this time, Yang Baiwan stopped his treasury bond trading and instead invested all his funds in the stock market.
Yang Baiwan's every move was highly sought after.
Seeing that even Yang Baiwan had invested all his assets in stocks, word spread and more people started buying stocks.
The stock market was also booming as everyone rushed to buy stocks.
Vacuum Electronics, which was priced at 100 yuan per share, quickly rose to 2,200 yuan.
Feilo Acoustics, originally priced at 50 yuan per share, rose from 400 yuan to 600 yuan, and then to 800 yuan...
Chen Dong has already obtained shares worth 5 million yuan from General Manager Guan. More importantly, he has seen behind many things that the butterfly effect has not yet arrived.
