Just as Li Qingcang and Elder Huaihai were meditating and cultivating their minds.
However, the financial market in Guanzhong is rife with undercurrents.
Li Zhixi, the vice president of the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce, has arrived in Guanzhong.
At the same time, it was announced that the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce has officially settled in Guanzhong!
Before the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce came to Guanzhong, they had already announced that they were preparing to launch a financial project covering the entire north.
This news caused a huge uproar in the financial world as soon as it was released!
After all, the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce is one of the three major chambers of commerce in Yandu, with assets exceeding 100 billion!
This might not seem like much in the South. But in the North, it's definitely among the top-tier!
In an instant, countless investment companies and financial tycoons extended olive branches.
During this period, investment banks and financial companies flocked to join Li Zhixi.
Although everyone knows that Zhou Xiaotian is the most influential person in the Guanzhong business community today.
However, Tian Ge's integration focuses more on the real economy and energy industries, while the financial sector remains largely untouched.
Because there were not many conflicts between the two sides, these financial industry bosses felt more at ease throwing themselves into Li Zhixi's arms.
In just two days since Li Zhixi arrived in Guanzhong, he has already hosted dozens of industry leaders. He has also acquired dozens of high-quality investment companies, including the Xu family's, and established a brand new investment company – 'Hongluan Venture Capital'.
However, he was not satisfied because after investigating the financial market in Guanzhong, he learned that the best company in Guanzhong's financial industry was a P2P company called 'Shanchun Financial'.
This company successfully went public two years ago, and has experienced rapid growth in the past two years, with its P2P business leading the way. Its business has expanded to cover the entire area outside the Great Wall.
If he can acquire Shanchun Financial, then the entire financial market in Guanzhong and beyond will be his for the taking.
In Li Zhixi's eyes, Shanchun Financial is not only a lucrative opportunity, but also of strategic significance.
Therefore, he decided that he must acquire Shan Chun Financial and complete the acquisition of a controlling stake!
In the past two days, he ordered his men to buy up a large number of Shan Chun's shares. Soon, he acquired 25% of the equity.
However, this was far from enough to achieve his goal of gaining control, so he continued to send people to talk to Shan Chun's shareholders. But this still wasn't sufficient!
He eventually discovered that Shan Chun's major shareholder was actually a newly established investment company—a subsidiary of Xiongfeng.
In fact, when Xiongfeng first came to Guanzhong, Lu Xueqing had already discovered Shanchun Company and was optimistic about its future prospects. Therefore, she spared no effort in negotiating with Shanchun's senior management, and ultimately, with Xiongfeng's strong financial strength, she acquired 30% of Shanchun's shares, becoming Shanchun's largest shareholder.
It can be said that Shan Chun Financial is the most important investment project of Xiongfeng's subsidiary, without exception. It is also the foundation for its future foothold in the financial market.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Lu Xueqing will absolutely not give up her shares.
Upon learning of this situation, Li Zhixi did not alert the enemy but instead sent people to investigate the background of Xiongfeng Subsidiary.
The background information was quickly uncovered.
"Young Master, the headquarters of Xiongfeng subsidiary is in Fengtian. Their CEO, Lu Xueqing, is a very capable woman. She previously secured a multi-billion dollar project in Fengtian!"
"Xiongfeng, Lu Xueqing?"
In the conference room, after listening to his assistant's report, Li Zhixi couldn't help but frown.
"I never expected that my final opponent in Guanzhong would be a woman? Interesting!"
Li Zhixi's lips curled slightly.
He has now largely consolidated the investment companies in Guanzhong. Only this Xiongfeng subsidiary remains a thorn in his side.
If he wants to monopolize the entire industry and become the hegemon, he must first spar with this woman named Lu Xueqing.
At this moment, he looked down at the shareholders of Hongluan Venture Capital, both large and small.
He smiled and said, "The fact that you all are sitting here today and joining my team is a testament to your trust in me, Li Zhixi! Now that I, Li Zhixi, have come to Guanzhong, I am determined to make a big splash! I must acquire controlling interest in Shanchun Financial! However, in the past few days, despite our best efforts, we have only managed to acquire 25% of the shares. That's far from enough to gain control! Therefore, I have a plan, and I wonder if everyone will support it!"
The shareholders exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
"Our joining Hongluan Venture Capital is a testament to our trust in Young Master Xi!"
"Of course we will fully support your plan!"
Hearing these words of support, Li Zhixi was very satisfied.
He nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll explain my plan! Given Shanchun's current shareholding structure, it's almost impossible for us to gain controlling interest. So, let's do the opposite. I plan to have someone spread some false information, saying that Shanchun Financial has lost billions and is about to collapse! At the same time, we'll sell off 10% of our shares. The stock market will definitely be shaken, and retail investors will follow us in selling, causing the stock price to plummet in a short period. If the support is strong, we can take bigger steps and sell off another 10%, or even all of it. Then our opponents will likely be unable to hold on, and when we think the price is right, we'll buy it all in one go. At that point, gaining controlling interest will be a piece of cake!"
Upon hearing this plan, the shareholders all showed expressions of surprise.
They were all seasoned veterans of the stock market, and they were fully aware of Li Zhixi's plans.
Isn't this short selling?
In theory, short selling is a viable method.
