The original plan was to sneak into the village, avoiding any gunfire, but now Nikon has become a hot stock.
I've never seen so many investors rushing to buy a single stock; Xing Baohua, who was running on it, couldn't even manipulate the market.
Before the Wall Street experts arrived, Xing Baohua received two phone calls. One was from Jin Xin, who was leading a team of experts from their company's investment department to come and observe and learn.
One group was led by Professor Meng from Suya School.
Xing Baohua asked Su Ya and the others how they knew.
It turns out that the Japanese were also extensively publicizing issues such as capital encroachment and malicious hype in the newspapers.
In particular, it is said that Hainan Holdings launched a hostile takeover attempt against Nikon.
This has led to persistently high stock prices.
The whole world knows about Haina's malicious behavior.
Xing Baohua hasn't been reading newspapers or watching the news lately, but he completely disagrees with the Japanese's statement. What do you mean by hostile takeover?
Yes, he did have that idea, but before he could even begin, the Japanese snatched it all away.
Eighty percent of the people in the circulating shares pool are their own people, or are they all retail investors?
Where can I go to tell this story?
Come on, everyone, it's good to have a look.
With Xing Baohua's consent, the two teams agreed on a time to come and observe.
Professor Meng's group, including Su Ya, makes five people.
Jin Xin, on the other hand, had more than twenty people.
The branch office space is a bit small; we need to find a larger conference room that can not only accommodate so many people but also has multiple offices.
I asked the person in charge here, "Did we have such a large area when we acquired buildings before?"
There are no vacant units right now; they're all small apartments. We all know how expensive housing is here in Japan! Few people can afford larger ones.
Even large office buildings are divided into several rooms with partitions.
Xing Baohua thought for a moment and decided to rent it since it was only for temporary use.
So I rented a floor, did some simple renovations, and told the renovation company I could finish it in 5 days. It didn't need to be fancy, just big enough to work in.
There's no need to customize office furniture; you can just buy inexpensive modular panels.
All kinds of electronic equipment are also sourced from the branch agents here.
Several large LCD monitors are mounted on the wall; they look comfortable and give the impression of a powerful company.
The branch office is short-staffed and is hiring temporary workers. The contract is for a three-month contract period. After the contract expires, the workers will automatically leave. The pay is slightly higher than the regular monthly salary, but overtime is mandatory.
And so, on the day of the recruitment, the crowds were enormous!
You're hiring only a dozen or so people, what's the meaning of bringing in three thousand? None of them have proper jobs, and you're only interested in these temporary workers for three months?
This workload completely overwhelmed the branch office's HR department. Just reviewing the resumes of over three thousand people would take two or three days, not to mention the interviews.
Even receiving a rejection message is enough to make you feel bad.
Fortunately, the experts from Jin Xin's team arrived first. Since they were short-handed, they were used as extra help.
You didn't even charge me tuition, how dare you ask for wages?
I randomly selected fifteen people, and then posted a notice saying that all positions were filled. I then used these fifteen people to call the more than three thousand applicants and apologize.
Actually, it wasn't necessary to reply to the message, but Xing Baohua wanted to give Hai Na a polite impression, which inadvertently caused her to exceed her phone bill.
Jin Xin sat on the sofa in Xing Baohua's office, smiling as he said, "I heard you own quite a few properties around here! Why did you rent this shabby place! You don't even need to make all the walls glass! If something happens here, everyone will see it!"
“Tell me what you can do. What’s so shameful about it? Besides, what kind of place is this? It’s not an exaggeration to call it the City of Pure Colors. They’re broadcasting it openly on TV. You’re quite open-minded,” Xing Baohua said.
It's just a temporary office space anyway, so setting up partitions is too much trouble. It's better to install glass; it's faster and more convenient. I didn't even ask for curtains; as long as they can block some sound, that'll be fine.
Hearing Xing Baohua's words, Jin Xin probably remembered that the hotel television had a special channel.
Okay, it is indeed perfectly aboveboard.
Xing Baohua sat up straight and said to Jin Xin in a very dignified manner, "I'm letting you come and see this because I'm giving some people face. Before I came to Japan, Vice President Liu even called me specifically. He said he would help if he could. My team is basically all in place. How much you can learn depends on your abilities."
After pausing slightly, he added seriously, "My partner's mentor team will also be here in the next couple of days. It's fine for us to joke around privately, but please don't joke around in front of my partner to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings."
Xing Baohua's words served as a warning to the other party.
"Oh! I didn't realize you were so devoted! Do you treat the one from Hong Kong and the one from America the same?" Jin Xin said with a smile.
"Now that you know, shut up! To be honest, you're really annoying, it feels like you're clinging to me."
"It's not a feeling, actually it's just that, well, your partner has arrived, and I'm covering for you. So, am I your assistant or your secretary now?"
“You’re nothing, go do whatever you’re supposed to do,” Xing Baohua said, pointing to the office door.
Meanwhile, in another small conference room, financial experts from Wall Street and the R branch were meeting to analyze Nikon's stock price.
Regardless of Nikon's structure or its current popularity, the most crucial aspect is its popularity, which is similar to last year but also different.
That was the hype created by the overall market environment, where all stocks were rising, but now Nikon is leading the pack, growing on its own.
There are often stocks that rise instead of fall in a bear market.
I've never seen a stock rise like this before. You could say there are market manipulators, yes, but they haven't had the chance to act. You can see information about the buyers in the transaction records of the buy and sell contracts.
