The years of red flags

Chapter 1500 Stock Matters

The expert asked amiably: "Hello, audience member, what do you want to discuss?"

"I just want to discuss with you about Huaxing Group's listing." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Why do you think Huaxing Group should be listed? What are the benefits of Huaxing Group's listing?"

The experts were all getting ready to start beating drums and gongs in their hearts. This was a very good question, it hit them right on the back of their hands. As a financial expert, it would be easy for me to answer these questions.

"The stock market is used to adjust working capital, mainly to serve enterprises. Huaxing Group is researching important national equipment, which requires a huge amount of funds. If it goes public, it can use these working capital to speed up the scientific research process."

Jiang Hua smiled and said, "But the boss of Huaxin Group is very rich, so he doesn't need to raise funds from the stock market."

The expert said earnestly, "Comrade, I have to say that you are narrow-minded. There are many rich people and the country has money. Why should we set up a stock market? It is to effectively regulate liquidity and make funds more fully used. At the same time, it can also bring returns to the holders of these funds. This is a win-win process."

"You also said that Huaxing Group is researching important national equipment. If it goes public, someone with ulterior motives might seize its shares, and then it would damage our strength."

The expert immediately refuted the rumor: "Dear audience, please do not misunderstand the stock market. The stock market is just a means of raising funds. There is no such thing as you holding shares."

Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Expert, you are treating me as an outsider. Isn't this common in the stock market? Why are you hiding it? After we went public and foreign capital took the initiative, weren't there many cases where founders were kicked out?"

The expert felt a little regretful and wanted to hang up the phone immediately, but now the topic was being broadcast live and it didn’t sound like it had come to an end. It would be bad for his reputation if he hung up the phone rashly, so he began to rack his brains to find an answer.

"I don't know much about what you said, so I can't answer you for now. I may need to look up some information before I can give you an answer. But I can guarantee that this kind of thing will not happen to Huaxing Group, because Huaxing Group is too big and its boss is too rich. He may not be the richest man in the world, but he will definitely be among the top few."

"From what you said, you are very familiar with Jiang Hua. You can even persuade him to go public?"

The expert smiled modestly and said, "We are not that familiar with each other. We have only met a few times. But I believe he is a person who is good at accepting advice and can tell the difference between good and bad advice."

"Really? But from what I know, Jiang Hua is actually very stubborn." Jiang Hua said with a smile, "He can indeed listen to advice, but not everyone can persuade him, at least not to people who know him well. I'm afraid it's useless for you, who are just acquaintances."

"From what you said, it seems that you are also familiar with this person."

"To be frank, I know everything about it." Jiang Hua said with a smile, "Because I am Jiang Hua."

The expert couldn't help laughing and said, "You are Jiang Hua. That's so funny. How could you be Jiang Hua?"

Jiang Hua also smiled and said, "Yes, how could Jiang Hua watch your show and see you speak nonsense?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expert stopped laughing.

"Huaxing Group will not be able to go public." Jiang Hua said emphatically, "It's not because of sufficient funds, but for national security considerations, so please don't make such nonsense."

The expert signaled the director to hang up the phone: "What this audience member said makes sense. After all, Huaxing Group is researching important national equipment that cannot be controlled by foreigners. We need to consider the overall situation before listing. Okay, let's move on to the next topic." The Internet was very lively at this time. In the Internet age, many things can be quickly moved to the Internet for discussion. The expert has been ridiculed in the forum, but no one believes that the person who called was actually Jiang Hua himself.

One thing the program crew didn't anticipate was that because of the influence of this expert, the ratings of the program plummeted, even though there was more than one idiot on their expert panel.

The next day, the front pages of many newspapers were not mocking the expert and the program, but discussing whether Huaxing Group should go public.

All the so-called experts discussed the matter in great detail, applying this theory and that model to Huaxing Group, as if Huaxing Group would go bankrupt tomorrow if they didn't do as they said.

What Jiang Hua found most strange was that no one came to ask for his opinion. There were many media outlets that had good cooperation with him, but no reporter called Jiang Hua and arranged an interview.

After three or five days, public opinion had not subsided. Instead, leaders related to the economy of Shanghai and the Special Administrative Region called Jiang Hua, lobbying him to list the company in their cities. Jiang Hua had many acquaintances in these two cities, and faced with their enthusiastic invitations, he could only politely decline.

The head of the Securities Regulatory Commission also called Jiang Hua and said, "Mr. Jiang, you see that the public opinion is very heated now. It seems that it is difficult to get off the tiger. The stock investors across the country are eagerly waiting. Why don't you go public and don't let the people down."

"Ordinary people don't trade stocks. More than 80% of Chinese people have never touched stocks." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Look at your market environment. The transactions are like fraud."

"Don't say that. We have been purifying the market environment and improving trading rules."

Jiang Hua said happily: "How about we make a bet."

"What bet?"

Jiang Hua said mischievously, "Tomorrow you can issue an announcement using the words you just said. In order to purify the market environment, improve trading rules, and promote the virtuous cycle of development of my country's stock market, we have decided to randomly select a certain number of securities companies and conduct a retrospective investigation of their business over the past five to ten years."

"and then?"

Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Then guess how many senior executives of securities companies across the country will resign regardless of the consequences and then jump out as hard as they can."

The leader was still a little confused: "What are you jumping out of?"

"It means running away to a foreign country and never coming back."

The leader finally woke up from his dream and said with a smile: "You are such a bad boy, you are so bad. You really know how to hit the snake at its weakest part. If you do this, our stock market will be the first to go into chaos."

"It seems like you know all the tricks involved." Jiang Hua said indifferently, "Just tell me if you dare to make this bet. If I lose, I will lose a business jet to the CSRC."
