Chapter 235

Then, he again gave Liu Peipei, this woman, a thorough once-over from head to toe.

To be honest, saying he is a stunning beauty is really not an exaggeration.

But the key is Xiao Ming; for him, it seems he basically has no interest at all.

You used to study finance, so these things shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?

What do you mean?

Come, follow me.

Xiao Ming suddenly felt where Liu Peipei's value lies.

So he waved his hand, and then Liu Peipei quickly followed him into the office.

I told you before that I wanted to acquire shares of Prosperous Asia Group; now I already hold forty percent of the market shares.

Oh, I already know that.

When I was acquiring these shares, I discovered something.

What do you mean?

I discovered that these shares were not first put on the market; they had been recovered, then diluted, and then reissued.

After dilution? That means the stock's value isn't that high?

Yes, take a look; I also checked the stock's movements from its first year.

After saying that, he directly transferred that stock interface over and placed it in front of Liu Peipei.

Although Liu Peipei works in finance, honestly, she is also quite knowledgeable about stocks and these financial matters.

Hmm, that's right, your analysis is really thorough; indeed, he did suspend it for a period in October last year.

Don't you think this is somewhat strange?

Actually, normally there's nothing strange; after a company decides, then after reorganization it reissues the stock—this is also a normal operation.

Then I want to ask under what circumstances would a stock position be suspended?

This should be when the company encounters some major events, especially a financial crisis.

Yes, but as far as I know, Prosperous Asia Group has been smooth sailing; since he acquired it in April last year, it seems there has been no real loss.

That is to say, you mean his suspension is basically without reason, and there must be some hidden motive?

That's right, there definitely is a hidden motive; also, take a look at this.

While speaking, he moved another monitor over again.

Finally, he just took a careful look; it was still a market fluctuation chart, but this chart was clearly different from the previous one, with all labels in English characters.

This, these are foreign stocks?

That's right, these are foreign stocks; take a look, these are from two banks.

Oh, I get it; you mean these two banks' stocks are also under his control?

That's right; look at those two places, what differences or similarities do they have?

This really gave Liu Peipei a tough problem.

Moreover, I've set this aside for a long time; picking it up again now is indeed somewhat difficult.

He simply sat down on the nearby sofa and then began to analyze this carefully here.

At this moment, Xiao Ming was not in a hurry.

Because this is a result he obtained after analyzing it all night last night.

He knows that even if she is talented, she still needs some time to sort it out clearly.

I understand.

Unexpectedly, after only ten or so minutes, he suddenly heard an excited voice from Liu Peipei's side.

He quickly turned his head, basically unable to believe all this.

You, what are you saying? You know, you know what I had you look at? I had you compare these two banks and also see what connection they have with Xingye Company.

Yes, I now understand it clearly.

Hehe, you understand it now; good, then tell me what you understood.

Just looking at Xing Ya Company's stock, it was suspended in October last year, and that process lasted eight days, right?

That's right.

When I looked at those two banks, it was also in October last year; suddenly their stocks dropped, even falling to the issue price at one point.

Yes, that's also the case; so what result did you analyze?

So the result I analyzed is that stocks don't just drop for no reason, especially bank stocks, which are usually viewed favorably unless there is a sudden withdrawal of funds.

Withdrawal of funds?

That's right; if my guess is correct, this money should have flowed into Xing Ya Company, which then repackaged it, diluted these shares, and then reissued them to the market.

And this process?

You can also understand this as money laundering.

Money laundering?

That's right; anyway, that's how I understand it, but I'm not sure what other secrets there might be in this process, after all, I don't know much about those two banks.

You really have made me look at you with new eyes.

After Xiao Ming stood there dazed for a while, he finally managed to say that.

Because he had previously spent an entire night analyzing this result, but he never expected that in front of him, just ten or so minutes, he would completely unravel all these mysteries.

How come, even now, General Manager Xiao only just realizes my outstanding ability?

Liu Peipei seemed to be showing off as she spoke to him.

Hehe, fine, since you have this ability, I'll temporarily keep you at the company; maybe you'll still be useful.

General Manager Xiao, you, you really mean that?

That's right, but for now you can only start as my assistant beside me; that's not a problem, right?

Okay, General Manager Xiao, don't say I'm just your assistant; let me do whatever, even sweep the floor at your company—I'm willing.

Xiao Ming knew that this kind of woman had come for him, and moreover, there are still many such women outside.

Alright, then we will focus our efforts on dealing with the Prosperous Asia Group; I feel that there must be many secrets hidden inside.
