Qin Zhiheng had no idea what Gu Wei was thinking. He glanced around and whispered, "The Shenzhen Stock Exchange is going to issue new shares in August. Are you going?"
Gu Wei smiled faintly, "I'll be busy with something and won't be able to get away, so I won't join in the fun."
Qin Zhiheng looked at him with pity, "You can't go yourself, but you can find some trustworthy people. What a great opportunity! I know some people have already started preparing a lot of ID cards."
"No, it's too much trouble."
Gu Wei had checked the information and knew that many people had made a fortune because of Haicheng subscription certificates and stocks, and almost everyone was caught up in the frenzy.
Participating in Shenzhen's new share offering required purchasing a lottery form with one's personal ID card, which sparked a fierce competition for ID card rentals.

In the last two days before August 10th, this special train from Guangzhou to Shenzhen was simply suspended, completely blocking the hopes of those who wanted to enter Shenzhen to buy stocks.
Later, the 810 incident occurred.
Subsequently, new share issuances were quickly suspended for a full year.
