Chapter 21: The Old Man Goes into the Water
The accumulation of primitive capital is carried out with blood and tears, but often the excavation of the first bucket of funds is carried with great surprises.
It seems simple for Lao Zhang's family to get the first pot of gold, but there are too many accidents, and if there is a mistake in any link in the middle, it is impossible to make such a huge profit.
When Baihu Bay was contracted at the beginning, if it weren't for Zhang Chen's insistence that Zhang Wenlin was tempted, even if the old Zhang family could make a profit, it would never be as easy as it is now.
So Zhang Wenlin's view of his son is definitely not just as simple as treating him as a child, it is not uncommon for children in the countryside to be precocious.
Although he didn't understand the operation of stocks, and he knew that his son was just mentioning it casually (he wouldn't believe that his son knew all about stocks), Zhang Chen's words touched Zhang Wenlin's mind.
After the father and son left the Bund, they found a securities company called Cathay Securities.
China's stock market in '96 was a bit sluggish at the beginning of the year, but at this time, the number of people speculating in stocks, especially in Shanghai, is not small.
The business office of this Cathay Securities Company is a little old, and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows are relatively rare at this time, but the mixed smell that blows inside after entering is a little frowned.
Zhang Chen naturally knew the detailed account opening process, but he didn't want to be shocked, and the old man was just here to wait and see, whether he would get involved in this huge financial whirlpool, Zhang Chen still had to think about it.
"Dad, look, here's the introduction!"
led Zhang Wenlin to a propaganda board, which was written with a detailed account opening process, and Zhang Chen asked the staff for a basic introduction manual for stock trading, but there were only a few pieces of paper.
Zhang Wenlin obviously had a great interest in such a brand-new "money-making tool", and he watched it for more than half an hour.
Although it is close to April, the weather in Shanghai is not very warm.
At this time, the Shanghai Composite Index fell sharply at the beginning of the year, once approaching the position of 500 points, and the overall shape was not optimistic at all, but Zhang Chen remembered that in March and April, China's stock market would begin to rise like a mad cow.
According to later statistics, all the stocks of the Shanghai Stock Exchange in 96 years added up to no more than 600, but the stocks that rose more than several times this year reached more than 100, you can imagine how terrifying the increase is.
That is to say, as long as it is not too unlucky, any stock bought will increase the asset several times by the end of 96.
But Zhang Chen's goal is not only that, especially in the last year when the price limit system has not yet been implemented.
At this time, what he was holding in his hand was a relatively comprehensive stock statistics list, which listed the symbols and names of a large number of stocks.
I saw Zhang Wenlin staring intently at the content on the paper, although he couldn't understand it, he was very interested, because there were many names displayed on the electronic screen in front of him.
If you don't study the K-line and other trend charts of stocks, just look at the number of buys and sells, it is actually very simple, of course, stock speculation will not be so simple, but Zhang Chen will never introduce these to Zhang Wenlin.
He knew very well that if he wanted his old man to make up his mind to get involved in the stock market, the simpler the rules, the more likely it would be, and it was obviously up to him to fool him.
"Dad, you see, when I bought this stock yesterday, it was 5 yuan 2, and now it has risen to 6 yuan, if you sell it, each share will make 8 cents, 10 shares will be 8 yuan, 100 shares will be 80, and 1000 shares will be 800, so scary.
And this, you see that it has risen by two dollars a day, and it makes money faster than our domestic fish. ”
Zhang Chen said exaggeratedly while pointing at the red patch from time to time, and the green ones next to him were ignored by him.
Fortunately, there is no one next to the two, otherwise it is estimated that this kid will be amused to death, if everyone can guess which stock will rise one day, then the stock market will not need to be opened.
Obviously, Zhang Wenlin was confused and didn't notice the hint of cunning in Zhang Chen's eyes, but was completely attracted by the things in front of him that were still completely new to him.
"It's not just about making money, it's also about losing, right?"
"Dad, there must be losses, but there must be more gains, otherwise why do so many people buy stocks, if everyone loses, no one will buy them, and the stock market will not be able to open."
Zhang Chen continued to flicker.
Sure enough, Zhang Wenlin was also frightened by his consistent thinking, and with his current understanding of the stock market, he would not have thought that this was a set of rules that were completely different from ordinary business rules.
was brought in by Zhang Chen according to his consistent thinking, which is the reason, if everyone loses, there will not be so many people buying stocks.
You don't see how many people in the future generations are trapped in the stock market and can't get out, but Zhang Chen knows that trading stocks in 96 is definitely a sure profit, and it is on the premise that he knows those representative stocks.
Only by seizing this opportunity will the old Zhang family really enter the ranks of the first batch of people to make a fortune, and only in this way will his goal of looking forward to his father becoming a Chan be realized.
Unfortunately, Zhang Chen did not succeed.
After staying at the exchange for about two hours, Zhang Wenlin resolutely took his son out and found a small shop for lunch before returning to the hotel to rest.
in the hotel.
Zhang Chen took advantage of the old man's sleep to glance at Zhang Wenlin, who was tossing and turning on the bed, and his mind began to spin sharply, he knew that the old man should be concerned.
It's just that it's hard to decide for a while, and I still have to burn a fire to do it, and whether the old Zhang family can soar into the sky depends on today.
According to the old man's arrangement, if there is no accident after tonight, he will return to Zhangwan, and his uncle has already paged him in the morning, and Master Li will wait for them at Yi'an Station the morning after tomorrow.
It would be almost impossible to wait until he went back to persuade the old man to come to Shanghai to buy stocks, let alone the best time to do so.
The phrase "Don't miss the opportunity and don't come again" made Zhang Chen's courage strong for a while, only to see him running out of bed and turning on the TV.
Immediately it happened to be a financial commentary program in the city, and the sound of the TV was a little loud, and Zhang Wenlin could hear it without opening his eyes.
He just wanted to give his son a shout, but then he was attracted by the sound on the TV.
"Today, the market continues to rise, up nearly two percentage points, and according to the current situation, the shape of the next few days will also be better-"
On TV, the so-called commentator Zhang Chen didn't know him, but the words he said spoke to his heart.
Immediately after that, the situation of several stocks with large gains was introduced, and sure enough, as I remembered, some stocks had begun to show signs of rising at the end of March, but it was not so obvious, and when it entered the middle of April, I am afraid that it would rise sharply.
At this time, most stock prices are very cheap, basically floating around a few dollars, so once they rise, there is actually a lot of space.
Later information showed that some stocks such as Changhong and Shenzhen Development even soared nearly ten times, while the god-like pit stock Qiong Minyuan soared more than ten times.
At this time, it was about 1 o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Wenlin actually took a nap for a while, but the sound of reading the stock price was always in his ears, and the red numbers he saw in the securities in the morning appeared in his mind from time to time, and his sleepiness became lighter and lighter.
In the end, it was difficult to fall asleep, even squinting, but fortunately, I sat up and stared at the TV screen.
After watching it for a while, Zhang Wenlin felt more and more restless in his heart, and the source of the restlessness was nothing else, it was the rows of stock trading prices.
At this time, Zhang Chen had already noticed the old man's every move, but he was still quietly playing with the new fountain pen he bought in the morning on the bed, and seemed to be completely uninterested in the content on TV.
"Why don't we go buy some stocks?"
Finally, Zhang Chen felt as if he had heard the sound of heaven.
But he still hid the ecstasy in his heart, not that he was too old, but that Zhang Chen was too cautious and lost his judgment.
"Dad, didn't you give all the money to your uncle?"
seemed to be inadvertently reminded, Zhang Wenlin didn't speak, but said again: "I kept a little, buy some first, try it." ”
