Chapter 512: Swords Swung, the Acquisition War Begins!

The next day, early in the morning.

Tokyo, an island country.

After two years of excessive decline and short-term violent fluctuations, most securities investors chose to close their accounts.

Even those who did not close their accounts chose to buy ETF stock funds of Longguo stocks.

Those who do not invest probably do not understand what ETF stock funds are. If you want to simply summarize it, it is a basket of stocks of the same type or a certain category.

For example, if you are optimistic about the Longguo stock market, you can buy CSI 500, which includes high-quality leading stocks in various industries in Longguo.

For another example, you think that after spring, it will be summer, and the peak period of electricity consumption is about to come, so you are optimistic about power stocks, then you can buy ETF stock funds of power.

If you buy a single stock, you will worry about its performance thunder, financial fraud and insider trading and other sudden events that affect the stock price.

But if you buy ETF stock funds, as long as your general direction is right, the thunder of a single stock will not cause too much impact, so many "conservative" stock players will choose ETF stock funds for investment.

After almost two years of beatings, the island country's stockholders have seen clearly that there is only one place to invest now, and that is Longguo.

Because the intercontinental missile was successfully tested, Longguo told the world that it not only has full military attributes, but also has caught up with the United States in technology and economy, and even surpassed it.

Those who are familiar with history know that every century will have a new "world boss".

In the 17th century, the Kingdom of France and the Dutch Republic were the co-bosses.

In the 18th century, the Kingdom of France and the Dutch Republic had declined, and the British Empire and the Bear Empire became the new world bosses.

In the 19th century, the Bear Empire declined from prosperity, and the British Empire became the sun that never sets on the sea.

In the 20th century, the Sun Never Sets on the Sea Empire finally fell, and with the end of the US-Soviet Cold War, the former Bear Empire collapsed, and the United States became the new world boss.

Every world boss who is expelled will establish a new world order around himself. For example, the United States is centered on itself and promotes the development of globalized trade.

According to the law of historical development, one or two superpowers will emerge in every century.

Since the beginning of the 21st century, many historians, economists, and international situation analysts feel that the world will be reshuffled again, but they don't know which country will replace the United States and rebuild a new world order.

From the moment when retail investors and financial institutions around the world choose to invest in the Dragon Country stock market, the world situation has begun to change subtly.

At this time, in Miyazaki's private manor villa in Chiyoda District, Miyazaki Junhui got up early for a rare time, sat on the side of the sofa in the living room, looked at Miyazaki Yu who was reading the newspaper and said:

"The market will open soon. Chen Xing sent an email last night saying that there will be action in the near future. I don't know if he will take action today."

"I hope he will be more cautious and extend the timeline for another half a month."

Miyazaki Yu put away the newspaper, his eyes flashed with worry. Joining the Longxing Group was the craziest gamble he had ever participated in.

If the bet wins, the Miyazaki family will squeeze back into the top five island countries.

But if the bet loses, they can only leave their hometown and go to live in Dragon Country.

"Half a month, you said let them complete the action before the first quarter report comes out?"

Miyazaki Junhui is very sensitive to time, and she instantly thought of why Miyazaki Yu wanted to extend the timeline by half a month.

Although she attended the island school in Longguo for elementary, junior high and high school, she did not attend college in Longguo, but went to Stanford University in the United States.

For ordinary people, it is extremely difficult to enter Stanford University, and it requires unimaginable efforts and sweat.

But for wealthy and powerful families, entering Stanford is as easy as pie.

Because the United States is a capitalist country that worships money first, their schools have fixed donation admission quotas every year.

In simple terms, if you donate hundreds of millions to Stanford, you or your children can get admission.

However, it is worth mentioning that although the rich can get admission quotas through donations, Stanford University will not let "parallel imports" graduate, and the main policy is to be lenient in admission and strict in graduation.

"That's right."

Miyazaki Yu responded and said in a deep voice: "If it is delayed until the first quarter report, the top ten holdings will also be announced. Although we don't know how many Toyota Group stocks Chen Xing has collected, it is certain that there will be no less."

Those who have learned about the financial investment field know that retail investors, institutions, and funds will announce their holdings every quarter, which is equivalent to four opportunities a year to know who holds the circulating stocks.

It is approaching April, and companies around the world are about to announce their financial reports.

"I think it is likely to be today or next week. I have clearly felt that the trading team of Longxing Group is a bit impatient these days."

When Miyazaki Junhui said her inference, she picked up the remote control, turned on the 100-inch Sony LCD TV hanging on the wall of the living room, and switched to the stock channel.

As the opening time approached, some experts on the stock channel began to analyze the trend.

"From a technical perspective, the market has stopped falling and entered the bottom shock adjustment stage, which is a very good signal."

"Yes, this position is unlikely to go down, and it cannot go down. Once it continues to go down, it means breaking the bottom shock adjustment trend, and it will continue to find the bottom, so today's trend is very important."

"I agree with Watanabe-kun's opinion. Today, the market can only go up, and it must not go down. Moreover, we can find that the automobile sector has digested the recent negative news, and it is possible that it will become the main line of attack."

"Then you are optimistic about the automobile sector?"

"Rather than being optimistic about the automobile sector, it is better to say that we are optimistic about our manufacturing industry."

The three stock hosts gave their own analysis opinions. In their opinion, the island country's stock market has approached the bottom freezing point.

If it goes down further, they don't know what others are like, but they probably have to go to the top floor of the Ginza Building to blow the wind.

Due to the increase in US dollar and yen interest rates, coupled with the super siphoning of funds by the Dragon Country stock market, veterans are buried halfway up the mountain.

While the three were talking, the island country's stock market came to the opening time.

"Red market!"

"Red, it opened red!"

"Sure enough, the analysis was correct. This is the bottom buying area. We can close a big positive line today and enter a counterattack trend tomorrow!"

"Let's believe in the national destiny!"

At the moment of the red market, not only the three stock hosts were excited, but also countless stockholders and institutions waiting for the release of their positions were excited.

Rising, so strange!

In the past two weeks, global stock markets except Longwai have plummeted, because the funds have been sucked up by the Golden Dragon Technology Index, the Hang Seng Index and the Weighted Index.

"It's actually a red market." Miyazaki Junhui listened to the excited TV host and showed a hint of surprise.

If it is really a red market today, then there will definitely be stockholders who will hold the mentality of bottom-fishing and collect chips at the "bottom".

"The early and late trading are the most untrustworthy and the easiest to manipulate. Let the bullets fly for a while." Miyazaki Xiong said calmly. He did not look at the market, but picked up the newspaper again to read it.

Miyazaki Junhui stared at the market, she wanted to know if Chen Xing would make a move.

While the Miyazaki family was "clear-sighted bystanders", Saito Susumu of the FSA Financial Services Agency was "blind to the authorities" and did not realize that danger was about to come, nor could he find it.

In recent days, he has investigated the holdings of overseas customers of high-quality Japanese company stocks through insider channels.

For example, the funds in the direction of Longguo, the highest proportion of Japanese companies directly or indirectly held in the high-end manufacturing field does not exceed 14%, and they have no say.

Even if you collect 30% of the circulating shares, you still do not have the dictatorship of the company.

Since the outbreak of the Asian financial crisis in 1997, the island country's stock market has also set a red line, that is, if overseas funds hold more than 25% of the circulating shares, it will trigger an acquisition warning.

This is because once the shares of a listed company exceed 30%, the controller holding the stock will have a veto.

Not only the island country's stock market, the Longguo stock market also has a similar alarm mechanism.

In addition to the acquisition alarm mechanism, many international companies will have a "poison pill plan".

What is a poison pill plan?

This is an agreement drafted by the company's board of directors, similar to the "dead hand system", and its full name is "Shareholder Rights Plan".

Take Twitter as an example. It is clearly written in the shareholder rights plan.

If someone acquires more than 15% of Twitter's shares through the stock market, other shareholders will unlock a right, that is, they can buy Twitter's shares at half price and enjoy voting rights.

Suppose, Twitter's stock price is 10 yuan, and someone maliciously acquires 15% of the shares, triggering the shareholders' right to buy shares at half price, then shareholders can buy Twitter's shares for 5 yuan.

If you are a Twitter shareholder, you can buy 10 yuan of stocks for 5 yuan. You don't have to think about it. You will want to sell your house, car, and wife and buy Twitter's shares crazily.

The most ruthless thing about this move is that all shareholders include retail investors holding hundreds of shares!

Although the poison pill plan can disrupt the other party's acquisition rhythm, at the same time, the stock will become very scattered, and the stock price will plummet afterwards. It is a kind of no choice but to use it.

Compared with Twitter's poison pill plan, Longguo Enterprise's poison pill plan is more ruthless. It can not only buy at half price, but also force it to be sold to the malicious acquirer at the highest price in two years.

Assuming that the highest share price was 40 yuan two years ago and the current price is 10 yuan, after the poison pill plan is triggered, you can buy stocks for 5 yuan and forcibly sell them to the hostile acquirer for 40 yuan.

Chen Xing and Li Daxiao naturally know that international companies generally have poison pill plans, but this cannot stop them.

The stocks secretly acquired by Longxing Group will be sold to funds in Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia.

The apparent controllers of these funds may have nothing to do with Chen Xing, but through the layers of interconnected structures, they actually have no actual control. The only one with actual control is Chen Xing.

To put it simply, in order to prevent the island government from finding out that he was maliciously acquiring, Chen Xing handed the eggs to his aunts and uncles, and through unknown means, let the aunts and uncles sign a proxy holding agreement.

Li Daxiao and Li Zhenzhen analyzed to Chen Xing that as long as the number of Toyota Group shares held exceeds 51%, all proxy holding funds can sign a "Consensus on Action" to hand over all decision-making rights of the shares to Chen Xing.

In this way, Chen Xing could use his 51% equity rights to forcibly dissolve the original board of directors, re-establish a new board of directors, and invalidate the "Shareholder Rights Plan".

Saito Ii would never have thought that the "Poison Pill Plan" he had painstakingly promoted had long been easily cracked, nor would he have thought that Chen Xing had long been eyeing the Toyota Group.

The Nikkei 225 opened in the red and rose by 1% within fifteen minutes. He breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Have we finally reached the bottom of the market? It seems we can start to attack!"

He looked at the session again and found that the Nikkei 225 index fluctuated back and forth with a 1% increase, which further confirmed his idea.

Nikkei 225 is indeed over!

Anyone who knows the stock market knows that the stock market is generally divided into two bottoms.

One is the market bottom.

Retail investors, financial institutions, and fund managers all think it is the bottom, and they rush to buy the market at the bottom. This is the market bottom.

Once the market bottom is formed, the increase is often more than 50%.

The second is the policy foundation.

When both retail investors and institutions felt that they had not reached the bottom, a major policy suddenly came out to stimulate the market, causing retail investors and institutions to exit the market early. This was the policy bottom.

The rate of increase at the bottom of the policy is very unstable. If the intensity is strong, it can be doubled, but if the intensity is small, it is almost like taking Viagra. After time, it will be softer or softer.

It is precisely because there are so many factors that interfere with the operation of the stock market that no one can judge its trend. Therefore, the stock market can become a "financial market" where people can get rich overnight or become poor overnight.

"Now that the market bottom has been formed, we need to add some ingredients to make it erupt." Saitoi murmured to himself.

Now island investors need confidence, and they must give them enough confidence.

Thinking of this, he quickly pressed the playback button on the intercom phone and said in a deep voice: "Everyone gathers urgently to hold a financial seminar."

The words fell.

He got up and left the office.

However, what Saitoi did not expect was that not long after his butt left the stool, Li Daxiao, who was far away in the Deep City of Longguo, looked at Yao Nana beside him and said: "It's time to release bad news. Others are ready to smash the market and take over."

When the market opened this morning, they purchased a large number of automobile sector stocks through the island country's own ETF stock fund.

It is precisely because the automobile sector, which is in a downward trend, has stabilized that the Nikkei 225 Index will have a positive line.

You know, manufacturing accounts for a very high proportion in Nikkei 225, and Japanese car companies are an important pillar of the island country's economy.

"Then I sent it?"

Yao Nana looked at Chen Xing.

Chen Xing nodded slightly and said, "Go ahead and follow General Manager Li's command."

This day was the most important day for the acquisition of Toyota Group. He also put aside all his schedule and work and came to the securities trading floor to watch.

Not only that, he also asked Yao Nana to bring her work computer to cooperate.

Among all the departments of Longxing Group, the securities trading floor is the most mysterious and requires an access card to access.

Yao Nana came to the securities trading floor and found out that the manuscript Chen Xing asked her to write was to cooperate with short selling today.

"Pap-ta-ta-ta-"

Yao Nana clicked the mouse quickly.

Because the manuscript has already been written, she just needs to publish it.

[bite! ]

[Upload successful! ]

Weibo pop-up window prompt.

After posting on Weibo, she published the manuscript on the official accounts of Douyin and Kandian, and finally used the company's legal network to log in to the external network to publish the manuscript.

Perhaps many people don’t know that it is illegal to use illegal VPNs to bypass the wall and view the external Internet.

If you browse particularly sensitive information, Uncle Hat has the right to fine you RMB 10,000 to RMB 30,000 and give you free food and accommodation for 15 days.

But for a large company, it has international business that needs to be connected and needs to access the external network. At this time, it can apply for an exclusive IP address in the name of the company to log in to the external network legally.

Of course, although it is illegal to use illegal VPN to circumvent the wall, it is rarely strictly punished. Only when browsing extremely sensitive content will the hat uncle come to your door for service.

The built-in algorithms of Douyin and TikTok detected content posted by Longxing Group’s official account, and immediately arranged to heat the homepage.

Let’s not mention that Chen Xing is ByteDance’s major shareholder. Let’s take the relationship between Chen Xing and Zhang Ming. Douyin and TikTok employees all know that Longxing Group must be treated “flexibly”.

Review?

Let it go wherever you can.

flow?

It’s full if you can!

Precisely because of the "flexible" treatment, the content has not been reviewed by reviewers, and the heating department has already pushed it out with all its strength.

[The latest good news is that with the continuous innovation and unremitting efforts of the Longxing Group's new energy R&D team, we officially announce that the "Energy Compression Technology" of Thor's solid-state lithium battery has achieved another milestone breakthrough!

Using new technology, the energy density of Thor's solid-state lithium battery has been significantly improved, reaching an astonishing 400Wh/kg!

While improving energy density, we have also deeply optimized the safety performance of the battery. By using innovative materials and designs, we ensure that the battery can maintain stable operation under various extreme conditions, effectively avoiding safety risks caused by thermal runaway and battery damage. Hidden danger.

In addition, fast charging technology has made another breakthrough, charging faster than refueling. It will be unveiled at the conference soon! ]

Although it seems like a long announcement, it only condenses three salient points.

Larger battery capacity, stronger safety, and faster charging speed.

The announcement also comes with pictures of the experiment, doubling the credibility.

The entire announcement does not mention cars, but it affects the entire automotive industry.

The charging speed is faster than refueling, and it also gives you a larger battery capacity, which translates into a higher cruising range. The battery safety that is most concerned about has been fully upgraded.

The moment the announcement was made, countless netizens became excited.

[Cupcake]: "Fuck, Thor solid-state batteries are going to break through. Are new energy vehicles really going to replace fuel vehicles?"

[Invincible Kitchen]: "I heard that Mr. Chen is going to make solid-state batteries for mobile phones. It won't be a super standby model with a battery life of one month, right?"

[Feng Xiaoxixi]: "Longxing Group is still awesome. Its R&D capabilities and professionalism are invincible!"

As netizens were discussing, Longxing Group's stock price rose sharply.

Whether a technology is recognized by the market or not, you only need to look at whether the stock price has risen or not. This is the most intuitive.

The surge in Longxing Group's stock price has attracted worldwide attention, and the corresponding global automotive sector is volatile.

When the automotive industry stock sector in other countries was shaky, Li Daxiao blushed and shouted:

"Smash it for me!"

The voice fell.

The members of the trading team held their breath and quickly used quantitative tools to sell the island country automobile sector ETF stock fund worth 100 million Longguo currency.

For a while.

The island country automobile sector directly plunged.

Although the Longxing Group's announcement did not name Toyota Group, it dealt the heaviest blow to the island country's automobile companies.

In addition, it is well known that Toyota Group has been researching hydrogen energy batteries instead of lithium batteries.

The breakthrough in lithium battery technology is equivalent to suppressing hydrogen energy batteries in disguise.

The bad news and the market crash, a large number of stockholders and institutions were fooled and hurriedly threw out their chips.

While they were selling, the trading team led by Yang Delong began to buy and continued to take over at the bottom.

Looking at the trading team that kept buying, selling, buying again, and selling again, Chen Xing's heart was in his throat.

13.3% Toyota shares, he only lacked the last 13.3%!

"Toyota Group has a large order to sell!"

"Take it!"

"Mitsubishi Group has a 2 million sell order!"

"Buy!"

"Nissan Motor Group has institutions frantically selling stocks, which may be affected by our bad news!"

"Buy all!"

Regardless of cost, crazy sweeping.

When the chips were in hand, they immediately smashed the market. This was a war of attrition of funds.

Saito I originally thought that the stock market had reached the bottom of the market, and was discussing "ignition" with other FSA members.

"Dong Dong Dong——"

Before the people in the conference room could react, Saito I's secretary pushed the door open.

"Oh no, something happened. The stock market plummeted, led by the automobile sector. Toyota Group, Mitsubishi Group, and Nissan Motor Group all experienced a cliff-like decline!"

"What???"

Saito I's eyes flashed and he couldn't believe it. He just looked at the market and it was fine. How could it suddenly fall off a cliff?

Suddenly!

He thought of something!

"Oh no, this is definitely not a natural market behavior. There must be international capital eyeing the Nikkei 225 Index and coming to us to withdraw money!"
