Chapter 488： [Forcing debt and strong alignment]

The outside world will never think that the battle has already begun, but Luo Sheng has never come out at this critical moment, and some of the video messages about him are only a few months ago.

Because he is now obsessed with his Star Arrow International, and almost everything at Blue Star Technology Group is left to Zhang Bowen for the lead.

Luo Sheng is going to make a most critical investigation of Lao Zhang through this crisis, and it is also Zhang Bowen's own gilded battle. If this battle is beautiful, then the position of CEO of Bluestar Technology will not be disapproved. It goes without saying.

The position of CEO can determine the existence of a company, but it is not as simple as the company's ordinary applicants. A multinational giant with revenue of 100 billion US dollars, the choice of the head of the company must be repeatedly evaluated. For example, the board of directors of GE After five or six years of evaluation of its CEO, he was finally able to take office.

In fact, since Luo Sheng's intention to step down as CEO, Zhang Bowen has entered the assessment, and it is not rigorous to say that this assessment has lasted for nearly four years.

The same goes for Yao Jianhong, who is next door.

They just didn't know it, never thought about it, and the reason was very simple. No one would think that Luo Sheng was so young that he would step down from the position of head.

...

Technology complex building.

In the morning, Luo Sheng was enjoying the nutritious breakfast prepared for him by Qing Xuemei paper. He was eating today and looking at today's newspaper. The front page quoted an article published by the British "Financial Times", titled [For short In other words, Bluestar Technology's stock is no longer radiant].

Qing Xuemei paper did not disturb Luo Sheng. The recent news was full of excitement. She also heard about it, but she looked confused. The only thing she could determine was the company of the young employer. It seems that in the recent period of time When it comes to big trouble, the major media are all overwhelmingly reporting.

However, Qing Xuemei paper saw Luo Sheng now showing the light and light side is also admiration, as if there was nothing like him at all.

Powerful man.

"Xiao Na, what is the size of Blue Star's short positions?"

Luo Sheng lowered the newspaper and began to say. After he set the big strategic policy, he did not directly take part in the command of the battle, but instead gave it to Lao Zhang.

I have to say that this kind of bold behavior is afraid that few business leaders on the earth dare to play like this. At this time, the helm person is generally afraid to sleep all the time.

And Luo Sheng, when he got up early in the morning today, he also talked with Qing Xuemei Paper about hundreds of millions of big projects.

But then again, although Luo Sheng did not command this battle, he paid attention to it every day, so he knew the actual situation very well.

Xiao Na responded quickly: "As of July 19, Bluestar's short positions were 45 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for 8.19% of the circulating market capitalization. So far in the third quarter, the number of Bluestar's shorted stocks has decreased by 460. Million shares, a range of 3.45%. "

It is worth mentioning that in the US stock market where both short and long coexist, although there are no policy restrictions on shorting stocks, most investors believe that shorting is more risky than going long, and it is the crazy gambling of adventurers.

Taking Bluestar Technology as an example, the current stock price is $ 384.82. For ordinary investors who are long, as long as the stock price rises, profits are profitable, and the rise space is theoretically unlimited.

For shorts, Bluestar's stock price can only fall to zero, and the largest decline is only $ 384.82.

Because of the huge risk of short selling, most of the short-selling players are professional investors who do short-term trading and fast-in and fast-out. The reason why short predators are scary is because of their huge capital chain and fast response speed.

Just today, Wall Street was collectively indebted to Blue Star Technology, and Zhang Bowen was also busy recently. Now, for the group companies, the debts have been settled.

Although it is a malicious drawdown, there are no restrictions on the law. Debts can be repaid. It is justified that if this account cannot be repaid, the money will be repaid.

Doing business with integrity is the most important thing.

However, more than 70 billion US dollars in cash turnover also takes time, Wall Street gave Blue Star Technology a 25-day period, and as long as the US dollar bills, no stock or other real estate funds.

This is actually the original pot. When borrowing money at that time, Luo Sheng did not write this in the contract. Instead, he wrote that he only traded in cash. At that time, Wall Street was eager to trade in BTC stocks.

Luo Sheng is not everything.

However, it is not a big problem. The outside world does not even know where he is holding more than 50 billion US dollars in the five major banks. As soon as Luo Sheng speaks, the money will be immediately available.

At the same time, the State-owned Assets Management Office also has 80 billion US dollars of funds, as long as Luo Sheng speaks, the money will be available immediately.

The form of the transaction is that the State-owned Assets Management Office used 80 billion US dollars to buy Bluestar's stock, and the stock bought was the stock that was previously repurchased. It is now placed in the company as "treasury stock".

Not to mention that the Luo Sheng Family Fund also has 150 billion US dollars of funds as the final ace and hole cards are ready to go.

Luo Sheng really couldn't think of how to lose in this capital war?

The purpose of Wall Street's debt to Blue Star Technology is to increase the atmosphere for subsequent short selling.

Compared to buying long and waiting for a stock to rise from it, the difference is that shorting is the opposite, that is, a company is not good, so it sells, and then makes its decline.

For example, hundreds of short funds or institutions on Wall Street are shorting Bluestar Technology, but they obviously do not have the company's stock on hand, so they first borrow the stock from the institutional account holding Bluestar Technology stock in the market and sell it. Of course, this requires payment. Certain people don't want to borrow interest.

But it is not done by selling it secretly, but also telling the world.

As a result, Chanos publicly questioned Bluestar's various issues, and Wall Street forced debt to follow.

The purpose of these operations is actually very simple, is to "find a sense of identity". Once other investors in the market agree with these views, they will also go short with Bluestar Technology, and the stock price will fall, and the shortfall will be even greater. Big.

If Bluestar Technology drops to a position they think is reasonable, then buy back Bluestar Technology's stock at a low price and return it to the institution that previously lent it to BTC.

This is a complete short process.

But this is only part of the operation of short institutions. In fact, there are many other ways to achieve the purpose, such as by buying put options.

...

In the following month, the scene of this fairy fight was staged under the watchful eyes of the people. The stock market was turbulent, short predators were making waves, the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods fluttered, and countless people in the industry, melons, and everyone Heart beat rhythm.

At this time, those who dare to enter the muddy waters to touch the fish are not particularly bullish, or they do not know how to spend the money.

Within a week, Blue Star Technology stocks held by multiple Wall Street short-end funds, including the Soros Family Fund, sharply decreased from 132 million shares to 83.52 million shares, a reduction of 36.7%, and more than one-third of short-sellers almost cleared their positions. .

On the side of Blue Star Technology, Zhang Bowen fulfilled his promise that if the short-selling organization dared to sell, he dared to buy, and received as much as he could.

At this time, Blue Star Technology had less than $ 5 billion in capital at hand, but at this time the Blue Coast came to the rescue, quickly supporting $ 17 billion, and Shengfeng Capital also brought $ 5 billion.

There is still a fight in this capital war.

The short-sold fund's stocks, Lao Zhang, all took over, and Blue Star's stock price was stable at the $ 550 billion level, and there was no sharp decline.

This means that in this week's contest between the two sides, the short side of Blue Star Technology has accumulated a total of 15.6 billion US dollars in this week, of which the leading hedge fund lost 2.283 billion US dollars, and the Knicks joint fund is tight. It subsequently lost $ 2 billion.

...

In September, Zhang Bowen, who was the pre-war commander, held another press conference today on September 5th. At this time, the capital war was anxious.

However, the outside world found that Luo Sheng was "extremely irresponsible" in this kind of knot, and he did not see him showing his face.

"If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. As the world's largest Internet giant, Bluestar Technology has been watched by Wall Street and also spotted by overseas shorts. Now it has become the world's most shorted company, with 201 million BTC stocks. Shorted. "

At this moment, Zhang Bowen on the podium calmly and calmly faced the media reporters present with a faint smile and continued to say: "Overseas bears are often referred to as 'crocodile'. They have been dormant for a long time and are bloodthirsty and never softened. No matter which company it encounters, it will inevitably be a capital fierce battle. However, the short fat crocodile of the “fat” of Blue Star Technology will leave sooner or later quietly ~ www.novelhall.com ~ When the stock price rises, it will be timely A position stop loss is the only option for a bear to retreat. "

Domestic and foreign reporters at the scene kept snapping the No. 2 figure of Blue Star Technology. Lao Zhang smiled with confidence: "Mr. Luo has commented on these shorts like this last month ... We never oppose anyone shorting Blue Star. Technology, the more they sell short, the better. In the end, they will buy it anyway. "

On the other side of the Pacific Ocean, Chanos was watching the broadcast at night. He heard the voice of the narrator of the TV reporter of this TV station. Chanos's eyelids twitched for a while, and his expression was gradually gloomy.

It was speechless. In the end, it was really bought back.

But the failure of the Blue Star Technology Group's stock price to mean that the short crocodile is constantly bleeding, and the interest payment alone is calculated in units of billions of dollars.

Chanos stared at the TV broadcast and sneered, "I'm going to see how long your money will last? You're too underestimating Wall Street's determination, and you're the real winner in the end."
