Chapter 697: Tang Qingquan's Threat
Agriculture Sector opened lower, Tang Qingquan must replenish his position to reduce costs. According to the information Chen Yang has, his available funds are very limited. The only solution is to rob Peter to pay Paul. Use Modu Bank's funds to relieve the siege on the Agriculture Sector.
Chen Yang has already greeted Lan Qiyun and Qi Yunxiang. As long as Modu Bank has a large outflow of funds, he will transfer all the funds to other hot sectors.
Ordinary investors like to follow the crowd. When a large amount of funds withdraw from the Agriculture Sector, they will also flee in panic.
Once they run, the funds remaining in the four limit-up stocks will certainly not stay put.
By then, the situation in the Agriculture Sector will basically be over.
And as Chen Yang expected, before ten o'clock those four limit-up stocks had already been smashed.
At that moment, Wang Lei suddenly called. "Director Chen, Tang Qingquan is here again!"
"It's fine, let him come!" Chen Yang guessed Tang Qingquan came with ill intent, so he immediately called and had the company security wait outside his office.
Five minutes later, Tang Qingquan arrived at Chen Yang's office, accompanied by two bodyguards, fuming with anger.
"Chen Yang, what exactly do you want?"
"Mr. Tang, I also want to ask you? The two projects I invested in in Modu have been ordered to stop; this must be your doing, right?"
"Hmph, this is just a little lesson for you!"
"Oh, so Mr. Tang came here to show off that you have connections in the court?"
"Hmph, you Chen, you let Xingcheng Securities' capital maliciously short the Agriculture Sector, thinking that would hit me? Dream on!"
"Mr. Tang, you're overthinking. In my eyes, you're not even an opponent. As for what happens in the stock market, that's just market behavior. Xingcheng Securities' funds are not enough to influence the whole market's trend. All I can say is they're a bit smarter than you, knowing when to take profits."
Seeing Chen Yang not only not take him seriously but also speak rudely, Tang Qingquan's anger flared. "Chen Yang, don't think that having a little money makes you forget your surname. On this land of Modu, the Tang family can deal with you in a minute."
Chen Yang shrugged, fearlessly saying: "Mr. Tang, business is about profit. I personally don't want to be enemies with anyone. But if you insist on making things difficult, then I'll have to go along to the end."
Tang Qingquan came this time to threaten Chen Yang into withdrawing funds from the Agriculture Sector to help him out of trouble. Unexpectedly, Chen Yang wasn't afraid of his threats at all. This made his anger burn even fiercer.
"Chen Yang, I warn you again: if you don't move the funds back into the Agriculture Sector, I guarantee your investments in Modu will all come to nothing!"
Upon hearing that, Chen Yang laughed and said: "The funds I've put into Three Stone Technology and Xuehua Real Estate are only two hundred million at present. I could easily make that much by operating in the US stock market for one night. If Mr. Tang tries to scare me this way, he'll likely be disappointed."
Tang Qingquan, having seen Chen Yang's US stock trading record, instantly turned embarrassed.
He thought: "No wonder Chen Yang didn't come to me for help right away when Three Stone Technology and Xuehua Real Estate were suppressed. It turns out they never cared about that money at all."
When you exert all your strength yet cannot shake the opponent in the slightest, that feeling is suffocating!
"Chen Yang, tell me, how exactly can we get the funds back into the Agriculture Sector?"
"Mr. Tang, haven't I made myself clear enough? This is all market behavior; I have no authority to influence others' trading."
"Besides, I haven't paid attention to the domestic stock market for a long time, and I don't want to meddle."
"Chen Yang, you wait for me!" Seeing Chen Yang repeatedly refuse him, Tang Qingquan threw down a harsh remark and left with his bodyguards, resentful.
After he left, Chen Yang's attention returned to the stock market.
After East Prosperity International withdrew funds from Modu Bank, the latter's stock price fell another two points.
A bank stock showing consecutive days of sharp decline is extremely rare in the domestic stock market.
Chen Yang thought for a moment, then called Chu Min.
"Dear, you called so quickly—are you missing me?"
"You're overthinking. I just think Modu Bank's stock has very limited downside. I'm giving you a suggestion to buy the dip."
"Modu Bank? You wouldn't be scared by Tang Qingquan and want me to take over his position, would you?"
"Tang Qingquan's funds should now be mostly in the Agriculture Sector; even if there's still a base position in Modu Bank, it probably isn't much."
"Oh, then I'll follow your advice."
"By the way, can you settle the Xuehua Real Estate matter?"
"Don't worry, I've already said hello."
Upon hearing that Chu Min was already resolving the Xuehua Real Estate predicament, Chen Yang felt relieved.
If the Xuehua Real Estate hurdle is overcome, those targeting Three Stone Technology will also become cautious. As long as there is room, problems can gradually be resolved.
Of course, Chen Yang won't let his guard down because of this. East Prosperity International is after all an international financial investment firm; securities investment is only part of their many investments. Tang Qingquan suffered a big loss this time and will surely try to make up for it elsewhere.
To prevent East Prosperity International from continuing to scheme against him, Chen Yang posted a notice on the website of Laobaixing Financial Investment Company, revealing that his investments in Modu have encountered great resistance and he intends to withdraw from the Modu market.
Not long after the notice was posted, it immediately sparked heated discussion online. The gate of Three Stone Technology Company was also surrounded by Modu's media.
However, before they arrived, Chen Yang had already sneaked out with Wang Lei. Just before leaving, he gave the security a heads‑up, letting them intentionally or unintentionally leak the news that "East Prosperity International's vice president Tang Qingquan had come to the company several times to cause trouble" to those media people.
For a while, the names of East Prosperity International and Tang Qingquan became the focus of Modu and even nationwide media. Everyone speculated what power stood behind East Prosperity International that could make the nation's richest person step aside three paces.
Under public opinion pressure, Tang Qingquan, who had just suffered a setback in the stock market, was urgently recalled by the Tang family.
"You beast, for a woman you've stirred up a storm across the city. Are you complaining that our family's troubles aren't enough?"
"Dad, a businessman who came from the countryside—what's there to fear? Once I suppress the public opinion, I'll slowly deal with him!"
"You beast, do you really think someone who can become a tycoon has no one behind him? The mayor just called, both openly and covertly warning me not to ruin Modu's investment environment. If you keep causing trouble, don't blame me for turning against you in the name of righteousness."
"Dad, Chen Yang made us lose a few hundred million in the stock market. If we don't give him a lesson, where is the Tang family's face?"
"You idiot, they became rich through stock market investment. With your meager abilities, you also want to fight them? Who gave you the courage?"
"……"
