ExxonMobil.
Currently, the market value exceeds 460 billion US dollars.
Just over 500 billion more than ERV, this gap can be said to be very small. If ERV’s stock price had risen by twelve percent, it would have surpassed ExxonMobil and topped the world.
Seeing this closing price.
Many people laughed.
Such a surge.
Indeed exceeded their expectations, of course, these "many people" do not include the major investment companies. They were prepared for this because they held the market and transaction information in their hands.
"Cheers, for ERV, for the US dollars."
Inside a luxurious hotel.
ERV traditionally held a banquet.
Hosting some important investors and company shareholders, as well as some notable figures and underwriters, dignitaries, with dazzling attire, celebrity beauties all displaying their ’human’ side here.
Banquet.
A place for cultivating relationships.
Fighters navigated through the crowd with ease.
These people.
Strictly speaking.
Were the relationships cultivated by the Fighters. In the United States, social hierarchies are distinct, and capital dictates everything, while the chairman of ERV could now stand at the peak of the American wealthy class.
However.
This still wasn’t the American core circle.
The core circle of America.
Consisted of consortia.
Now.
Fighters had just touched the edge.
Even at this stage, it was basically impossible for Fighters to challenge the great American consortia. In the eyes of the consortia, a Fighter was just a wealthy businessman. The consortia held the power to set the rules of the game.
Logically.
The safest method.
Was for the Fighter to also join one of the consortia to gain more power, and indeed, before ERV went public, the major consortia had already extended olive branches, offering part ownership of ERV in exchange.
It wasn’t mandatory.
It wasn’t "join us or we’ll unite and destroy you."
Though these consortia were imposing.
They were quite tolerant towards internet companies. The real core of the major consortia lay in military, energy, medicine, finance, and other core sectors. These sectors, once touched, meant definite conflict.
But internet companies were different.
This was an emerging industry.
In their words.
---- Too much volatility.
And changes happened too quickly, unstable, far less profitable than industries like military, energy, or medicine. Hence, the penetration of consortia into internet companies had always been weak.
Willing to join, welcome.
Unwilling, no coercion.
However.
Without the support of a consortium, there would be much less support, and the Fighter’s choice was... not to join, meaning to establish his own consortium.
In Tang Qing’s plan.
He never considered getting too close to these consortia.
What is ERV?
A troublemaker.
In the future, all major high-tech companies in the United States would be ERV’s main competitors. Simply put, it was fight, with no peaceful coexistence, only cutthroat competition and acquisitions.
And ERV was also charged with the task of forming a consortium.
The purpose, of course,
Was to counterbalance other American consortia and even surpass them to become the ultimate super consortium that truly ruled this most powerful nation on the planet. That was the ultimate purpose of ERV’s existence.
Of course.
ERV was just one of the core elements of the consortium.
Going it alone is a major military taboo.
In the future.
Under the secret support of the Fighters, numerous companies with disruptive technologies would emerge. When they began to penetrate every industry in the United States, that would be the time the consortium took shape.
Tang Qing named this plan ’Cover the Sky.’
Covering the sky with one hand.
’Global Umbrella Plan,’ ’Pixiu Plan,’ ’Global Industrial Alliance Plan,’ ’Emerging Consortium Support Plan for Japan and Korea’ were also directly or indirectly serving this overall goal.
...
At the time the banquet was held.
Huaxia.
Woke up.
All major media were dominated by ERV.
"The New World’s Richest Man Emerges, Net Worth Exceeds Two Hundred Billion US Dollars!"
"Legend Born: How Did the Trillion-Dollar Chairman of ERV Make It!"
"ERV is expected to top this week, becoming the highest market value company in the world."
"Surpassing Microsoft, ERV has proven with facts that the internet industry is the most disruptive industry, and its next target—ExxonMobil, a miracle, is about to happen."
"..."
Comparatively speaking,
the second one is more attractive. Calculating in US dollars looks good, but for the Chinese, converting it into RMB is even more shocking—the nearly two trillion RMB net worth of a fighter.
Displayed before the eyes of the Chinese.
My God!
Who knows how many people were stunned.
How
can a person have so much money?
Has the world gone mad?
Obviously,
it’s the capital that has gone mad.
...
Tang Qing didn’t sleep all night.
Mainly because he couldn’t sleep.
Holding his beloved in his arms,
he watched the data coming from the Command Room through projection glasses, all the vast data collected from everywhere like streams into the sea, then analyzed and displayed before him.
The current stock price.
In fact, wasn’t ERV’s ultimate point.
At this price, many capitals still retained confidence, plus the media’s reporting and propaganda, the new world’s richest man, the new company with the highest market value— the leech effect hadn’t reached saturation yet.
There was still a huge amount of capital ready to join.
Seeing this situation,
Tang Qing knew,
tomorrow,
ERV would definitely top the charts.
Thinking about it.
Anyway, some of his money was of no use, why not give ERV a little boost.
"Tang Yi, in the next two weeks, divert twenty billion US dollars from the US dollar pool to help increase ERV’s stock price," Tang Qing ordered, the Pixiu and other plans had accumulated a lot of capital.
Some had to be spent.
The current market size of ERV was eight hundred and twenty-two billion US dollars.
These twenty billion US dollars,
would suffice to increase its stock price by twenty percent, pushing the size over one hundred billion US dollars. This money didn’t actually enter into ERV’s accounts, but the high valuation could increase its loan capacity from the bank.
Previously ERV’s valuation was four hundred billion US dollars.
Having spent twenty billion, now it had reached five hundred billion US dollars. So, with this ’performance’ valuation increase, if ERV went for a bank loan, it should be able to secure twenty billion US dollars at least.
This was merely an extremely conservative estimate.
No need for contact.
Just able to transfer benefits to ERV.
Aside from business transfers, this method through the stock market was the most convenient and the most hidden, because business transfers, if too obvious, would arouse suspicion, whereas the stock market was investment.
"Yes, Commander."
...
After getting up.
Tang Qing was having breakfast.
His uncle’s call came through.
"Uncle."
"Tangtang, I made quite a bit of money yesterday, haha."
"Congratulations," Tang Qing sipped his porridge and smiled.
"Are you not going to ask how much I made?" Tang Kai was delighted; not all new stocks in the United States made money, but this time, following the advice of an expert and with Tang Qing’s words, he had made a heavy bet.
"How much?" Tang Qing asked cooperatively.
"If I sold now, I could make over six hundred million RMB." Tang Kai chuckled.
"That’s not bad."
What else could Tang Qing say?
"Tangtang, do you want to buy some too? I think ERV is going to rise further, no, I forgot, your information is even more reliable than mine, any suggestions?" Tang Kai’s excited mind gradually sobered.
"Hold on for another week, after that, the chance of a surge is low, don’t add more investment, better to quit while you’re ahead," Tang Qing said.
"Alright, I’ll listen to you, I’ll sell whatever I have a week later. You really won’t let your company invest a bit?" Tang Kai wondered, it’s rare for Tang Qing to pass up making money.
"Forget it, I don’t really understand the stock market," Tang Qing said casually.
Tang Kai: "..."
Is that not understanding?
Alright.
Though Tang Kai didn’t delve into why Tang Qing didn’t want to make this money, he didn’t dwell on it. After hanging up the phone, he happily called his company in the United States, telling them to sell fifty percent in a week.
The rest,
he would treat as a long-term investment.
