Chapter 228: Stock Trading Group
Unexpectedly, the other party went to such lengths, personally waiting for Huang Xiaochuan and his companions at the restaurant entrance.
Deputy Director Lei stood at the restaurant entrance and introduced Huang Xiaochuan and the others: "This is our host today, General Manager Chang Zhihong!"
Chang Zhihong greeted them politely, "Welcome, welcome! Let's not stand in the doorway and get in the way. Let's go into the private room and sit down to talk. Come on in, Director Lei!"
He then invited the group to a private room.
Huang Xiaochuan walked at the back and waved to Yang Junmin.
After Yang Junmin walked up to him, he said, "You guys can order and eat in the hall. I'll contact you if I need anything."
Yang Junmin nodded and led Li Huan and He Guang to a table in the hall where their view was unobstructed.
This scene was witnessed by Chang Zhihong, who was calling out to everyone. He then glanced at Yang Junmin and the other two.
Once inside the private room, the group sat down in turn. Chang Zhihong had five people on his side, plus Huang Xiaochuan's five, along with Deputy Director Lei and Dai Xiaoguang, making a total of twelve people.
After sitting down, the two sides began to introduce themselves to each other.
When Huang Xiaochuan and Ding Yi were introduced, Chang Zhihong's eyes lit up, and he took the initiative to walk to their side and very politely shook hands with Huang Xiaochuan and Ding Yi.
The people who came with Chang Zhihong also looked at Huang Xiaochuan and Ding Yi, smiling as they sized them up.
"As the saying goes, the younger generation surpasses the older generation. I never expected Huang and Ding to be so young and accomplished! Standing next to you young people makes me feel old!"
Ding Yi glanced at Chang Zhihong with a half-smile but didn't speak, while Huang Xiaochuan said modestly, "President Chang, you flatter us. We are just ordinary students, not outstanding individuals."
These words made Deputy Director Lei and Dai Xiaoguang roll their eyes inwardly. An ordinary student? You're kidding me! Holding a mobile phone and driving an imported luxury SUV, you call that ordinary?
At this moment, the four people who came with Chang Zhihong also walked up to the two of them, took out their business cards, and exchanged a few pleasantries with Huang Xiaochuan and Ding Yi.
Huang Xiaochuan looked at the business cards in his hand. These business cards all had one thing in common: a long list of titles, such as council, association, and director. Most people would be intimidated by them, but Huang Xiaochuan knew that they were all just for show.
These people were a group of stock speculators from Zhejiang Province. People from Zhejiang Province have always liked to stick together when doing business outside the province. This was true for stock speculation, and later it was also true for real estate speculation.
These four people are Lao Fenghua, Mi Shunan, Wang Honglang, and Tan Yunfan. They are all township entrepreneurs from Zhejiang Province. After making their first fortune, they suddenly realized that speculating in stocks was more profitable than running a real business. So, a group of them gathered together and decided to come to Shanghai to speculate in stocks.
These people are all shrewd. Although they are not highly educated, they are ruthless and bold in their actions. Otherwise, they would not have accumulated their current wealth. They had already used their connections to find out more about the situation. Among these students, Huang Xiaochuan and Ding Yi had the most subscription certificates. So, they used their connections to find Deputy Director Lei of the Finance Department and arranged to meet Huang Xiaochuan through Deputy Director Lei. Their goal was to see if they could buy their subscription certificates from Huang Xiaochuan and Ding Yi.
After exchanging pleasantries, everyone took their seats, and Chang Zhihong personally poured Maotai for Huang Xiaochuan and Ding Yi.
Huang Xiaochuan covered his wine glass and said tactfully, "President Chang, I'm driving, so I won't drink. Please forgive me!"
Ding Yi followed Huang Xiaochuan's example, covering his wine glass with his hand as well, but he spoke more bluntly than Huang Xiaochuan: "I don't drink!"
Wu Duo and the others also said they didn't drink alcohol.
This put Chang Zhihong in an awkward position, but then Deputy Director Lei stepped in to help him out.
"Mr. Chang, they are students and have classes this afternoon, so they really can't drink alcohol. How about we just have a simple lunch?"
Chang Zhihong quickly slapped his forehead and apologized, saying, "My bad, my bad. I didn't think it through. I should have arranged it for the evening. I was just too eager to see you young talents, so I was a bit impatient. Please forgive me!"
In this way, the people at the table toasted each other with tea instead of wine.
We started by talking about current events and interesting anecdotes, but the conversation gradually shifted to subscription certificates.
Explore different genres of urban fiction; there's bound to be one that suits your taste.
Chang Zhihong, holding his teacup, said, "Gentlemen, I'm a businessman, so I won't beat around the bush. I know you have some subscription certificates, so I'd like to ask if you'd be willing to sell some. Of course, we definitely won't let you lose out on the price. The market price is currently 2,400 yuan per certificate, but I'll add 100 yuan to each one, making it 2,500 yuan per certificate. What do you think?"
Chang Zhihong's words startled Deputy Director Lei and Dai Xiaoguang. Dai Xiaoguang's chopsticks, which were reaching out to pick up food, froze halfway. He looked at Chang Zhihong with surprise, and then at Huang Xiaochuan and the others.
Lao Fenghua, Mi Shunan, Wang Honglang, and Tan Yunfan all looked on with anticipation, eager to hear what Huang Xiaochuan and the others would say.
Dai Xiaoguang put his chopsticks away and looked at Huang Xiaochuan sitting next to him with great surprise, wondering what he would say.
Subscription certificates? Of course Dai Xiaoguang knew about them. Who in Shanghai didn't know about subscription certificates these days? They were certificates to make a fortune!
Huang Xiaochuan and his group actually had subscription certificates? It seemed like there were quite a few? So that's why they were treating them to dinner? Dai Xiaoguang felt he had guessed the truth.
Wu Duo and the other two looked at Huang Xiaochuan and Ding Yi, while Ding Yi looked at Huang Xiaochuan, wondering how Huang Xiaochuan would respond. On this matter, the other members of 222 all tacitly wanted to hear what Huang Xiaochuan had to say.
Seeing his roommates looking at him, Huang Xiaochuan said, "President Chang, I'd like to ask, where did you get the idea that we have subscription certificates? Are you sure you haven't made a mistake?"
Chang Zhihong did not directly answer Huang Xiaochuan's question, but said, "Huang, how about this? We'll consider ourselves acquainted today, and from now on we'll be friends. You both have each other's contact information. If you're not satisfied with the price, we can find some time to sit down and have a good talk. Let's not talk about this today, let's have dinner."
Huang Xiaochuan smiled, not responding to Chang Zhihong, but instead saying to the others present, "President Chang, bosses, Director Lei, Teacher Dai, we have classes this afternoon, so we'll take our leave first. Please enjoy your meal!"
Deputy Director Lei immediately realized what was going on and quickly said, "Yes, yes, you have classes this afternoon, so you can go ahead! Xiao Dai and I will take a taxi back ourselves."
After Huang Xiaochuan and his group got up and said goodbye to Chang Zhihong and the others, they left.
Deputy Director Lei then asked Chang Zhihong, "President Chang, are you sure you're not mistaken? They're still students. How could they possibly have subscription certificates?"
"Director Lei, we are absolutely certain that we have not made a mistake. These individuals have all registered to purchase the shares they won in the lottery. We have already confirmed this through our connections with Shenyin Securities."
"what?"
He wanted to ask for more details, such as how many subscription certificates Huang Xiaochuan and the others had, but Chang Zhihong didn't tell him, saying he didn't know either.
Seeing that Chang Zhihong didn't want to reveal too much to him, Deputy Director Lei tactfully took his leave with Dai Xiaoguang.
After the two left, Mi Shun'an, the most impatient of the group, walked up to Chang Zhihong and said, "Should we find a few thugs to scare those young men?"
Chang Zhihong stared at Mi Shunan with his deep eyes for a long time without saying a word, making Mi Shunan feel uneasy.
After a long pause, Chang Zhihong finally said, "Mr. Mi, we're in business, not the mafia. Don't bring your tricks here. Don't you know who that young man surnamed Ding is? If you want to die, go by yourself. Don't drag the rest of us down with you. If you ever mention this again, please leave. Let's go our separate ways."
The others lowered their heads and remained silent.
Seeing that no one was on his side, Mi Shunan quickly retracted his previous words: "Oh dear, I was just grasping at straws in my desperation, Mr. Chang, just pretend I didn't say anything, okay?"
At this moment, Chang Zhihong said quietly, "You're still looking for thugs? Do you even know who that young man surnamed Huang is?"
"You've already checked? They're just an ordinary family, aren't they?"
Chang Zhihong shook his head: "Would an ordinary family send bodyguards? Besides, I could tell at a glance that those people were from the military. This young man's identity isn't simple either, otherwise why would he be with that guy surnamed Ding? And didn't you notice that the others all listened to him?"
Lao Fenghua, Mi Shunan, Wang Honglang, and Tan Yunfan were all stunned. Bringing bodyguards when going out? Is this an ordinary college student?
After thinking about it carefully, Mi Shunan broke out in a cold sweat.
