Chapter 8: Shang Haixing
Chen Feng got on the long-distance bus to Shanghai as he wished, but because his height was more than one meter, he couldn't take it for free as he wished, so he bought half a ticket.
Zhang Chongxi was somewhat surprised that Chen Dayong took his son to Shanghai together, but since he didn't need his travel expenses, he didn't say much.
After about 11 hours of bumpy rides, the three of them finally came to Shanghai, and under Zhang Chongxi's standard Mandarin directions, the three of them found a mid-range hotel to live in near the Bund, in order to save money, of course, only a double room.
Early the next morning, the three of them got up, freshened up, and after breakfast, they took a taxi directly to the Shanghai Stock Exchange in the center of the city. The reason why I know about the Shanghai Stock Exchange is, of course, because Chen Feng "reminded" Chen Dayong. At this time, it was already the second half of 1991, and at the end of September, if you want to open an account before buying stocks, you must first go to the Shanghai Stock Exchange to apply for a paper card account.
When I arrived, it was only seven o'clock in the morning, and the Shanghai Stock Exchange had not yet opened, but a large number of people had already gathered at the door, which seemed very lively.
Under Zhang Chongxi's leadership, the three of them asked the people standing outside about many matters related to buying stocks. At this time, people are still quite enthusiastic, after Chen Dayong took the initiative to hand over a piece of China, he was very enthusiastic to explain to them in detail, and at the end, he also swore to tell them the inside information, which stock to buy to make the most money, but now the market for buying stocks is more monks and less porridge, and it depends on luck to buy it.
After asking several people in a row, Zhang Chongxi and Chen Dayong knew some doorways, and they were much more confident. Chen Dayong bought a copy of the "Shanghai Securities Daily" in someone else's hand at a high price according to Zhang Chongxi's construction, and Zhang Chongxi explained the contents to him while reading it. When the Shanghai Stock Exchange opened, the three of them went in and lined up, good guys, long queues, all the way to the outside of the gate, Chen Dayong and Zhang Chongxi patted the team for nearly two hours before they could be regarded as having their respective stock accounts done.
After opening a stock account, it does not mean that you can buy stocks, and you have to go to the securities business department to open an account and queue up to receive the order to entrust the purchase of stocks.
The three of them immediately rushed to the nearest Wanguo Securities Huangpu business department to line up, this row, almost Chen Dayong and Zhang Chongxi were tired to death, the two of them lined up for more than two hours, but the front line was still old, and finally Chen Dayong and Zhang Chongxi discussed, simply the two of them were counted in the same account, so that the two of them could take turns to line up in the future.
After the two agreed, they took turns queuing, and this row took more than two hours before the effort paid off, and finally opened an account, got the order, and entrusted to buy stocks. Chen Dayong did what he said, and saved 20,000 yuan in the account in one go, while Zhang Chongxi was much less in comparison, only 3,000 yuan, of which 2,000 was lent to him by Chen Dayong. In this way, the account balance set up in the name of Chen Dayong has 20,000, according to Chen Feng's previous instructions, buy the three stocks of Aixiang Electronics, Yuyuan Shopping Mall, and Shenhua Electronics, and sell as many as you want.
Chen Dayong and Zhang Chongxi thought that everything was fine, waiting for the good news, but he was not as optimistic as they were familiar with history, and several people waited in the hotel for two days, and went back and forth to Wanguo several times a day to see the billboards, hoping to see the news of the purchase entrustment transaction, but they were disappointed again and again.
After five days in a row, I still didn't wait for good news. At this time, Zhang Chongxi couldn't help but be a little discouraged, but Chen Dayong was still very optimistic, under Chen Feng's special guidance, the father and son took this trip to Shanghai as a tour, in addition to the "Wanguo" to see the notice every day, they wandered around in Shanghai Beach, which really made Chen Dayong, the foreman, see the world.
The three of them stayed in Shanghai for a week, and stayed until the eve of the National Day, during which the two took turns queuing up to carry out the entrusted buying business, but at this time, the stock market soared as soon as the stock market opened, and almost everyone was reluctant to sell, and they were not willing to throw, even if there were one or two to throw away, but it was not their turn.
Staying in a hotel that is worth a lot of money to them every day, this accommodation fee costs a lot, not to mention that two days ago, when I called home, Zhao Xiaolan said that a few people in the township had set up a construction team to rob their own business, so that Chen Dayong could go back early.
At this time, even Chen Dayong, an optimist, couldn't help but be secretly anxious.
Fortunately, at the last moment, things finally took a turn for the better, and on September 30, the Shanghai Stock Exchange began to implement a flow restriction control of 3/1,000, stipulating that only when the turnover rate of a tradable stock reached more than 3/1,000 on that day, the closing stock price of the stock was allowed to rise by 1%. Although this measure later proved to be not very effective, but on this day, the three finally waited for the good news, entrusted to buy successfully, a total of 100 shares of Ai Xiang Electronics, 5 shares of Yuyuan Shopping Mall, 100 shares of Shenhua Electronics, of which the 5 shares of Yuyuan stocks, which are called "royal stocks" are particularly rare, and their price is now as high as 1900 yuan. At this time, there was not much balance left in Chen Dayong's account.
After buying the stock, Chen Dayong breathed a sigh of relief, let go of his worries, and even bought a long-distance bus ticket for the return trip on the same day, and immediately went home.
When I returned to Yuyang Township, it was almost midnight, and in order to save long-distance phone bills, I didn't notify Zhao Xiaolan in advance to come back today. She was suddenly woken up by a knock on the door in the middle of the night, and when she saw the father and son returning safely, she was inevitably unexpectedly happy.
"Stinky boy, I yelled to follow the **, but now I'm suffering, I see you've lost weight." Zhao Xiaolan hugged her son with a distressed face and began to chatter.
Chen Feng didn't talk back, but smiled happily and said, "Mom, I haven't seen you for the past few days, I miss you." The food you eat in Shanghai is not as fragrant as your mother. ”
"Stinky boy, when you go out, you become flamboyant and know how to pat on the back." Zhao Xiaolan said this, but her eyes were already red, "Are you hungry, Mom will give you your favorite wontons now." ”
"Thank you, Mom! I'll show you the fire. ”
Chen Feng took the initiative to invite Ying, and Chen Dayong also followed him to join in the fun.
"Dad, this time it's smooth, right? Have you bought all the stocks? Zhao Xiaolan asked while busy making dumplings.
"It's kind of smooth. It's just a few more days of waiting. I bought them according to what my son said, and I think I will definitely make money. You don't know the situation in Shanghai, everyone seems to take money not for money, and there is a long queue every day where you buy stocks, that guy, hundreds of meters long...... That stock is also evil*, one price a day, and it goes straight up...... If I hadn't been in a hurry to come back, I would have liked to stay for a few more days, and it would be a pleasure to watch the stocks I bought go up every day......
Zhao Xiaolan couldn't help but pour cold water and said: "There is no feast in the world that will not be dispersed, this has been rising, but there is always a head, I think when it rises in price about the same, we will stop it." ”
Although Chen Dayong is a little impulsive, he is not a person who is happy with his achievements, and he can't help nodding when he hears his wife say this.
Chen Feng was not happy, and hurriedly interjected: "Mom, these three stocks in my dream have risen continuously until the first half of next year, like the 'Yuyuan' that Dad bought today, and I dreamed in my dream that when I was in May next year, they all broke 10,000." If you sell it early, you won't lose your life? ”
Zhao Xiaolan was not happy when she heard this, and immediately reprimanded: "Don't say anything about dreams in the future?" Mom went to the Guanyin Temple two days ago to ask for a peace charm, and I will put it on for you later, so that you won't dream in the future. ”
Chen Feng had no choice but to pout, and stopped talking in a funny way.
Chen Dayong sighed, looked at his son, and said with a wry smile: "Son, Dad really hopes that what you dreamed is not true." ”
Chen Feng was a little moved, and at the same time, he couldn't help but give him a big look. If it weren't true, then more than 20,000 of our family would be lost, and my mother would not be distressed to death. Of course, he could only slander this in his heart.
