Power and WealthChapter 25 – Prices had increased!
Next day.
General Affairs Office.
Dong Xuebing had read up on the stock market in the morningand left home slightly later. He reached the office precisely on time.
Tan Limei joked: “Bing Zhi, why are you so late today? Tellme. Did you go out on a date with your girlfriend last night?”
Dong Xuebing smiled and placedhis bag on his glass desk. “Stop making fun of me. I don’t have a girlfriend.”Dong Xuebing had never dated any girls before while he was in school. He hadaverage looks and was from a poor family. Without car and house, no girls wereinterested in him.
“Oh?” Changjuan laughed. “Do you want elder sister here tointroduce you some girls?”
Dong Xuebing smiled: “Thank you, Sister Chang. I am currently good by myself.”
“If you are interested to know girls, tell me. I will keep alookout for good girls for you.”
Dong Xuebing did not really want to be single. He enviedthose with girlfriends. But with his looks and family background, it was hardto get a girlfriend. He rather focusseshis energy on his career. Once he was promoted to be a leader, he will havemoney, and it will be easier to getgirlfriends.
10 minutes later, Zhou Changchun entered the office. It wasthe leader’s privilege to be late. No one will say anything.
Guo Panwei had been waiting. Once he heard the footsteps, heimmediately went to brew a cup of tea.
Guo Shunjie was pretending to be hard at work. After ChiefZhou had entered his office, he continued to laze around. He turned to DongXuebing: “Xiao Dong, you should clean up our office. Don’t wait until Chiefcomes in and scold us. Later if you are free, mop the floor.” The cleaner OldWang will only clean up the corridors outside and send bottles of water to theoffice. The cleanliness of the offices was usuallydone by the staff workers.
Dong Xuebing was pissed when he heard this. He was the one thatcleans up the office the last time. He was also the one before the previoustime. Why was it his turn again? Are you trying to challenge me? If it wasChief Zhou’s instruction, I don’t mind. But who are you to order me around? Youasked me to do all your task at work, andyou still want to boss me about non-work-related matters?
Dong Xuebing had tolerated him for too long and was about toblow his top.
Zhuang Zhi was really someone worthy to be friends with. Hesensed the tension in the office and immediately say: “I will clean up theoffice.”
Dong Xuebing did not say anything and picked up a rag andclean the office with Zhuang Zhi.
Guo Shunjie glanced at Dong Xuebing and snort.
Everyone in the office wasbusily doing their things in the morning.
Chief Zhou had gonefor a meeting on level 3 and returned back at noon.
At about 2.05 pm. Ring, ring, ring. The General AffairsOffice’s phone rang. Dong Xuebing happened to be at the photocopier and was thenearest to the phone. He reached over and answered: “Hello. General AffairsOffice.” It was Chief Zhou. “Xiao Dong? Come into my office now.”
“Yes. I will be right there.” Hah! My opportunity finallycomes!
Zhou Changchun’s office.
Zhou Changchun was laughing happily and pointing to thestock charts on his monitor. “I had just sold off all my shares, and I am going to buy one or two blue chips.But I am not sure which to pick. Give me some of your opinions.”Zhou Changchun did not mention about DaqinRailways shares, and Dong Xuebing was notfoolish to talk about that.
“Sure. But I need to take a look first.”
“Come, bring the chair over.”
“No need. I will stand.”
The stock market was doing well in the morning. The top-performing share was new stock. It had risen by about 98.03%. The second to the eighth shares hadincreased by about 10%. The rest of the shares like Pharmaceutical shares,technology shares, had increased by atleast 7%.
“How is it?” Zhou Changchun asked. “Which shares should Ipick?”
Dong Xuebing used the mouse and clicked on the charts ofsome shares. “Please wait a while. Let me analyzethese charts.”
Zhou Changchun slowly sipped on his tea. “No hurry. Takeyour time to analyze the shares. Mostimportantly, the share must be doing well and stable.”
The performing shares had almost reached their peak, and Dong Xuebing looked at the top losers list.The top loser was a company called Hainan Rubber. It had dropped 10.03% and wasabout to reach the daily limits. Dong Xuebing looked at the chart and scannedthrough the company’s latest news. This company was listed not long ago, and itwas considered an agriculture share. The profits were average despite owning a considerable market share. Basically, thiscompany had not met the expectations of the investors, and the share prices had been dropping since trading starts.
Zhou Changchun frowned as he looked at the monitor. He wavedhis hand: “Look at the next company. It is not advisable to touch those sharesthat had reached the daily limit. There are so many orders queuing to sell.Tomorrow, this share will surely continue to fall. This company is also notdoing well. Look at other shares.”
“Ok.” When Dong Xuebing was about to close the window,Hainan Rubbers share prices start tojump.
There was an order to buy 80,000 shares of this company.
Soon, another order to buy 20,000 shares came in and canceled out all the orders to sell. The percentage fall of the share prices was reducedto -7.26%.
-6.17%......
-5.32%......
-3.78%......
-2.02%......
In a blink of an eye, the share prices had almost breakeven.
It was so shockingly fast.
Dong Xuebing did not hesitate and said “BACK” in his heart.
......
The time returns back to 1 minute ago.
Dong Xuebing’s eyes blurred and in front of him was HainanRubbers share prices chart.
This share was still at the lower side of the daily limits.There were still no signs of this share moving.
Zhou Changchun looked at the monitor and said: “Look at thenext company. It is not advisable to touch those shares that had reached thedaily limit. There are so many orders queuing to sell. Tomorrow, this sharewill surely continue to fall. This company is also not doing well. Look atother shares.”
After so many days of training with his extraordinary power, Dong Xuebing wasaccustomed to this. He immediately points to the monitor: “Chief Zhou, hurryand buy this Hainan Rubber shares. It will be rising soon.”
Zhou Changchun was shocked. “Didn’t I tell you that it isnot advisable to touch those shares that had reached the daily limit?”
Dong Xuebing immediately replied: “Don’t worry. It willsurely rise. I dare not trick you.”
Zhou Changchun was still hesitating. “...... How can you tell?”
“Just trust me this time. There is not much time left.” DongXuebing said anxiously.
Because Zhou Changchun did not listen to Dong Xuebingyesterday, he made lesser profits. Now, Dong Xuebing seems very confident thatthis share will rise. He frowned and thought for about 1 second and said:“Fine. I will buy this company’s shares.” Zhou Changchun was using trading software to trade online. His passwordwas saved on his computer, and he couldlog in and place the trade very fast.
After buying the shares, both of them were staring at themonitor in silence.
Hainan Rubber share prices remained unchanged. There weresales orders of almost 100,000 shares in the queue.
Zhou Changchun looked at the monitor and tapped on his teacup.He was tapping faster and faster.
Rise!
Hurry up and rise!
Dong Xuebing also clenches his fist nervously.
1 second......
2 seconds......
Suddenly, a big order to buy the shares appeared on themonitor.
Followed by 20,000shares traded.
Another 7,000 shares traded.
Chief Zhou could see the share prices of Hainan Rubbershooting up like a rocket.
Chief Zhou banged the desk excitedly. “It had gone up. Theshare price had risen!”
Dong Xuebing was jumping in joy in his heart. “It will stillgo up further.”
-7.26%
-6.17%......
-5.32%......
Zhou Changchun points at the monitor: “This is a goodshare!”
-3.78%......
-2.02%......
The share prices kept going up.
Zhou Changchun laughed and slapped Dong Xuebing’s back. “Howdo you know it will rise?”
Dong Xuebing made up an excuse: “From my analysis of thecharts.”
Zhou Changchun laughed heartily. “Good. You are reallycapable!”
