Chapter 218: 214. Zhang Ran Enters the Market (Please subscribe, please vote for monthly tickets!)

"Uncle Zhang, when are we going to make our move?" Meng Mingxuan asked impatiently from the side.

Zhang Ran said, "Wait a little longer, no rush."

Where are we even at right now? It's still early.

Seeing Zhang Ran's confident demeanor, Meng Mingxuan felt his own anticipation growing.

As the news fermented, and with people constantly bringing in news from abroad, the fame of "Yong Ge" grew larger and larger.

The impact on the status of Dragon Tiger Ointment also grew, as after all, this was something that a wealthy man from the United States, and a playboy like Taylor at that, had personally tried.

What was Taylor like before?

Basically, anyone who paid even the slightest attention knew—tsk, tsk, tsk—it was simply too miserable to look at, and he had become a global joke; how much better could he have gotten?

But now, because of "Yong Ge," he was standing tall again, and was full of vigor.

It was also because of Taylor's fame and status here that many people would subconsciously believe it, which is why the effect it brought was so good.

Zhang Ran was in no hurry to act here; he just kept finding people to spread the news about "Yong Ge."

Since Dasheng Pharmaceutical had its own sales channels, some places already had the official product by this time.

Many people, harboring curiosity (really, just curiosity!), tried it once and were immediately conquered by the effects of "Yong Ge."

As the reputation of "Yong Ge" continued to rise, the impact on Dragon Tiger Ointment increased again, which was fully reflected in the stock price of Yaotian Pharmaceutical.

Although Tian Yaohui kept releasing good news, it was still difficult to reverse the negative impact caused by the blow to Dragon Tiger Ointment.

Within just three days, the national sales of Dragon Tiger Ointment fell by two percent, and as time went on, this figure continued to expand.

Now, quite a few people had started selling off Yaotian Pharmaceutical's stock, and within these three days, Yaotian Pharmaceutical's stock price had also fallen by four percent.

Although the extent of Yaotian Pharmaceutical's stock price decline was not shocking—at the very least, it had never hit the daily limit down—the speed of the decline had never been curbed; instead, it was constantly accelerating.

Moreover, as the sales of "Yong Ge" continued to climb, this meant that the sales of Dragon Tiger Ointment were constantly decreasing. If Yaotian Pharmaceutical could not reverse the situation, then the stock price would fall faster and faster. Many shareholders were actually still watching from the sidelines, waiting to see if Yaotian Pharmaceutical had any other good news.

For these three days, Zhang Ran basically stayed here watching; apart from going home to eat at night, he never left.

"Alright, that's about enough, buy in a little bit of stock." Zhang Ran suddenly said this day.

As his voice fell, those professionals began to take action one after another, though this time Zhang Ran was only buying a very small amount, as if he were just testing the waters.

A week passed just like this, and Yaotian Pharmaceutical's stock price was still falling, but because Tian Yaohui was also taking constant action, the downward trend began to slow down significantly. It seemed that in another two days it would stabilize, which made many people heave a sigh of relief.

However, very soon, two pieces of news broke this tranquility: one was news regarding the falsification of Yaotian Pharmaceutical's new drug.

Someone questioned the data of this new drug from Yaotian Pharmaceutical, and even analyzed it specifically from a professional perspective; it looked quite convincing.

The other piece of news was from Dasheng Pharmaceutical; almost at the same time, Dasheng Pharmaceutical announced their new drug, a cold medicine.

At this point, almost everyone understood that Dasheng Pharmaceutical was going to go head-to-head with Yaotian Pharmaceutical.

Because, apart from Dragon Tiger Ointment, Yaotian Pharmaceutical's second-largest source of revenue was cold medicine.

Dasheng Pharmaceutical had completely declared its stance to compete with Yaotian Pharmaceutical, and it seemed to be quite effective.

Some people were also curious as to how Dasheng Pharmaceutical, a company that was just a small pharmaceutical factory before, suddenly had such courage and strength.

If one could say that Yaotian Pharmaceutical had been able to barely maintain the stability of the stock market through Tian Yaohui's operations before, then once these two pieces of news came out, their stock price could no longer be stabilized.

Even though Tian Yaohui conducted emergency public relations, it was useless; the speed at which this news spread was chilling.

And what made Tian Yaohui even more uneasy was that some of his previous connections had not played any role in this regard.

That very day, Yaotian Pharmaceutical's stock price hit the daily limit down!

This was not just because of these two pieces of news; in fact, it was more due to the reason of "Yong Ge."

Before, it was because of a series of operations by Tian Yaohui that Yaotian Pharmaceutical's stock price had temporarily stabilized, but now with these two pieces of news, the impact of Dragon Tiger Ointment being replaced erupted directly.

Furthermore, there were many rumors spreading information unfavorable to Yaotian Pharmaceutical.

This seemed like a snowball; at a certain point, Yaotian Pharmaceutical's stock price was like an avalanche.

When the stock market opened the next day, Yaotian Pharmaceutical's stock price hit the daily limit down again within just three hours!

This made the already unconfident shareholders panic, and they also began to sell off their stocks continuously.

And it was at this moment that Zhang Ran also began to enter the market on a large scale, but he chose his timing well; at such a time, not many people were paying attention to them.

Or rather, apart from Tian Yaohui's group and some people who knew the news, no one was paying attention to Zhang Ran and his group.

After Tian Yaohui saw the actions of Zhang Ran and his group, he reacted immediately, his mind racing; was Zhang Ran deciding to compete head-to-head in the stock market?

But Zhang Ran seemed to have no intention of hiding it at all. Although he was operating separately from Huo Zhiyuan, Meng He, and the others, and had not reached the threshold for a mandatory disclosure, they had no intention of hiding it either; it seemed they were clearly telling Tian Yaohui that they were going to have a showdown in the stock market.

This made Tian Yaohui feel a bit uneasy; he was becoming less and less sure of what Zhang Ran actually meant.

However, Tian Yaohui could not worry about these things for the moment, because the company's shareholders had already come knocking.

With the stock price showing such a trend, these people could no longer sit still.

"Chairman, do you have any solutions now?"

"That's right, we can't let the stock price keep falling like this, otherwise we won't be able to hold on either."

Looking at the noisy group of people below, although Tian Yaohui felt very irritable, he still patiently said, "Everyone, don't be anxious. Although the stock price has hit the limit down now, it's not like we have no options. The most important thing is not to panic. If we ourselves are in chaos, then how can we reverse the situation? Besides, it's not like we are truly out of options."

Tian Yaohui's calm demeanor made these shareholders feel slightly more at ease.

"Chairman, then what do you think we should do next? Is there anything you need us to do?" someone said loudly at Tian Yaohui's signal.
