Chapter 47 Investment is Risky
ο»Ώ
Weiyue just turned on the TV, which was playing today's hot pursuit, and the background of the TV picture was Huo Shaochen's Xinfu Investment Co., Ltd.
I saw Huo Shaochen sitting at his desk, his handsome face, with endless tiredness at this time, but his expression was still so calm and calm, and the reporter was saying in a voiceover, " It is reported that because of the recent catastrophic sharp decline in A-shares, many investment institutions and listed companies have suffered huge losses, and the city's famous iron and steel enterprises, Kongjia Iron and Steel also because of the impact of the stock market crash, there is a bank pledge debt due, the capital chain is facing the danger of breaking, so we have to redeem from Xinfu Investment before the 80 million investment that has not expired, for this reason, we will first interview the person in charge of the company, Mr. Huo Shaochen has any views on this matter. β
"Hello Mr. Huo, can you agree to the sudden redemption of the investment in Xinfu by Kong Family Steel?"
Shaochen sat in front of the table, with a solemn expression on his face, without a trace of smile, but without the slightest panic, "We have always acted according to the contract, and the contract has clearly stated that the cooperation period signed with Xinfu Investment is one year, if it needs to be redeemed in advance halfway, the company will only return the principal, and the interest will not be at all." β
Outside the office, Kong Lei and Shao Gang were more nervous than Huo Shaochen in the room at this time, Kong Zhijun and his party had just arrived at the company this morning, and a group of reporters actually followed, asking for an interview about the details of the redemption of Kong Iron and Steel, Kong Lei and Kong Zhijun didn't think about it, and immediately refused, but behind the reporters, followed by a thick wall of people, looking at it, there were hundreds of people, Shaochen realized that today's matter is no longer hidden, since he can't hide, he can only face the difficulties, and with a wave of his hand, let the reporter come to his officeγ
"So after Kongjia Iron and Steel redeems Xinfu Investment, will you worry about triggering a wave of redemptions by other retail investors?" the reporter continued to ask.
Huo Shaochen's face is still as usual, at this time he knows very well that this is a live broadcast on the radio, tens of millions of eyes are looking at him, even if the sky falls, he can only hold on to it now, his joy and anger are invisible, and he must not be like Shao Gang and Kong Lei outside, at this time, in addition to only keeping turning in circles and running out of ideas, Kong Zhijun went through the formalities in the company, and after taking the check, he left in a hurry under the escort of the bodyguards, on the grounds that he still had official business, leaving only such a difficult mess for Huo Shaochen to clean up.
Facing the camera, he was still so calm and calm, "Radish greens, each has its own love, Xinfu Investment has been open for more than nine months, that is to say, if it is the company's first batch of investors, in two months, not only can you get back all your investment funds, but also ten percent of the interest income in the past year." This is more than three times higher than the interest rate of the bank. β
"Mr. Huo, you said very lightly, but after the stock market crash, the company may have suffered a lot of losses. "A reporter is a reporter, and the purpose of a good interview is to dig up news, and the essence is often to mention which pot is not opened.
Huo Shaochen frowned slightly, his face became a little ugly, and his words were still so calm and calm, "Comrade reporter, regarding the operation of the company, this is already a commercial secret, please forgive me for the inconvenience of informing me." β
"Then I also want to ask Mr. Huo a question, if the redemption tide of retail investors is coming, can your company promise to do it and let them all fulfill it one by one?"
In the face of such a sharp question from the reporter, Shaochen also had a panic in his heart, the redemption of Kong Iron and Steel can be said to have drained most of the company's liquidity, if there is really another wave of redemption of retail investors, there is no doubt that the company will have a large funding gap, but what is needed now is calm and calm, panic will not solve any problems, he secretly gritted his teeth to himself, and slowly spoke," As I said before, all investors of Xinfu Investment can only act according to the contract, and the terms of the contract have also been explained in detail to you, there is no fraud, if you insist on redeeming the investment principal in advance, it is allowed by the company's contract, only other income, and the company will no longer have the obligation to perform. β
Looking at Mr. Huo's affirmative words and calm demeanor, it seems that he has enough confidence to deal with the redemption tide of retail investors. The reporter said with a smile.
Huo Shaochen smiled at the same time, "When you open the door to do business, you pay attention to the word integrity, and all the promises made before Xinfu will not change because of the impact of the market investment environment." When he said this, he paused for a moment, cheered himself up in his heart, and continued to say calmly, " I solemnly promise here that all investors who signed a contract in Xinfu do need to redeem their investment money in advance in our company because of financial difficulties, they can register at the front desk of the company from now on, and within three days, the company will return your investment principal to your bank account, of course, please seriously consider that the early redemption of investment is not able to enjoy the company's previous commitment to other investment income commitments, in other words, this half a year's time, you are a waste, if you can hold on for two more months, 10% of the investment amount of the income will fall steadily into your pocketγ β
Shao Gang, who was outside the door, watched the TV, secretly grabbed a fist and whispered to Kong Lei, "Shaochen, he is not confused, isn't this tantamount to encouraging retail investors to redeem their investments, everyone knows the liquidity in the company, once the redemption tide comes, what should we do? Are we really ready to go bankrupt and liquidate?"
Kong Lei shook his head and said heavily, "It's my dad who is sorry for you, but Shaochen has no way to do it now, whether retail investors come to redeem their investments or not is completely beyond our control, is it true that Shaochen said not to come, they really won't come? β
"It's just that there is really a wave of redemptions from retail investors, and we can't be saved. Shao Gang said sadly.
Kong Lei looked up at the ceiling and said slowly, "I can only pray that Shaochen Ji people have their own heavenly appearance and take us through this pass." β
The reporter's interview is finally over, followed by an interview with retail investors outside the door.
"Do you have any opinion on the early redemption of the principal of Xinfu Investment by Kongjia Iron and Steel?" the reporter asked someone.
A said, "Now that the market investment environment is so poor, the stock market is falling every day, and the Kong family redeems the investment in advance, probably because they see that the risk here is too great, so they find an excuse to get their principal back first, so as not to get it back in the end." β
"So, you're also planning to redeem your investment in advance?" the reporter asked again.
A continued, "Of course, big families like Kong Iron and Steel have to retreat in advance, and if we don't leave, I'm afraid we will be eaten to the point that there is no slag, not to mention, I'll go to register and redeem first, I'm afraid that the registration will be late, and the people in front will take the money, and I won't even get the principal." β
This person probably already represents the voice of many retail investors, so under his leadership, many people followed his steps and walked towards the front desk of the company.
Of course, there are still a small number of people who hesitate and have a wait-and-see attitude, and then the reporter walked to a person who did not follow everyone into the company, "Excuse me, are you an investor in Xinfu?"
The man nodded, "Yes, I invested 100,000 in it last year. β
"Then under the influence of the Kong family's early redemption investment, will you also ask Xinfu for early redemption?"
"This, I want to wait and see, after all, most of the year has been waiting, I don't think I should care about waiting for another two or three months, it has always been high-risk and high-return, as long as the company is still in Xinfu, I believe that my investment and income can be guaranteed, not to mention that I just saw you interviewed their head of General Manager Huo, looking at his calm conversation, I think the crisis in the A-share market may not have a great impact on him, I redeem at this time, really like Mr. Huo said, most of the time is wasted, it is better to deposit directly in the bank on a regular basisγ β
Next, the reporter interviewed several people, some asked for early redemption, and some continued to hold a wait-and-see attitude, but the final result, the early redemption of people still accounted for the majority, behind the background of the camera, I saw a steady stream of people rushing towards the front desk of Xinfu Company.
Weiyue has also been watching TV, and what Shaochen said before leaving in the morning is still echoing in her ears, "I just went to the bar last night to have a drink to relieve my fatigue...... I've been really having a hard time at work lately and I'm under a lot of pressure, so I hope you can understand me......"
Although Weiyue doesn't understand business, he only understands it literally and knows that the investment company is to let everyone invest the money in the market and then make a profit through various investment activities and then feed back to investors, and now there are a large number of investors in the company who redeem the investment money in advance, which will definitely disrupt the original deployment of the company, so Shaochen will say that he feels a lot of pressure now.
Weiyue suddenly found that this was the first time he had talked to her about work since he met Shaochen, and he would not mention half a word after he came back from hard work outside, this time he couldn't help but say it, which shows how great the difficulties and pressures he faced in the company, it can be said that he is about to exceed the limit of what he can bear.
Probably this is also the reason, so he could only go to the bar last night to borrow wine to kill his sorrows, but he happened to be met by himself, and he lost his temper with him willfully, and finally lost the child because of his own mess, but he did not complain to himself, but took the initiative to take all the responsibility. This morning, he finally said that he hoped that she would understand him for once, and it is conceivable that his heart was exhausted to the extreme, and he had no energy at all to coax her slowly, and only asked that she could understand his situation and not add to his burden.
Thinking of this, Weiyue took out her mobile phone and dialed a phone for him, after the phone was connected, a very noisy voice came from the microphone, Weiyue hesitated, but still asked, "Shaochen, are you busy now?"
At this time, Shaochen was sitting in the office, and from time to time there were dissatisfied voices from retail investors outside, "Why wait for three days, what if you run away after three days, where are we going to get the money?"
Shao Gang patiently explained, "Our office, our equipment are here, how to run, where to run? We have promised to return the principal in three days, what are you not satisfied with?" β
β......β
Shaochen opened the door of the room in the office, which was originally prepared for Weiyue, so the soundproofing measures were better than ordinary rooms, so he whispered, "Weiyue, don't you sleep for a while, does your stomach still hurt?"
Shaochen's gentle and flat tone, but Weiyue's tears burst out of her eyes in an instant, "I'm fine, you don't worry about me, I'll take care of myself." I know there's something big going on in the company, I shouldn't have been so willful and didn't listen to you last night, I'm sorry. β
