Chapter 498: Want to take advantage? There is no way!

February 8th this year is New Year's Eve, and it is only half a month before the New Year. Populus euphratica plans to spend the Spring Festival in the capital.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, there are obviously fewer pedestrians on the street.

Hu Yang bought some toys for his niece, and his sister Hu Yue bought some clothes for everyone in the family.

The winter in the north is still very cold. They, who have stayed in the south all year round, did not bring any heavy clothing with them when they came to the capital this time.

"Mr. Hu, I have your phone number. It's Secretary Zhang calling."

Hu Yang was playing with Xiao Xi in the children's playground in the mall when Wu Xinhui handed him his mobile phone.

"Hello, Secretary Zhang, what's the matter?"

"Where are you now? The leader and I are also in the capital. Let's meet at noon."

Hu Yang was a little surprised when he heard that Qi Xiangmin had also arrived in the capital. But since they were all here, it was appropriate to meet him.

"Okay, let's have dinner together at noon, and you can ask the leader what he wants."

There was silence on the phone for a while, and then Secretary Zhang gave a positive answer.

"The leader said to keep it as simple as possible at noon, and you can send me the address later. So let's leave it like this for now, and we can talk later when we meet at noon."

After hanging up the phone, Hu Yang called Liu Jin and asked Liu Jin to help find a private restaurant deep in a certain alley. According to Liu Jin, although this private restaurant was very low-key, the quality of the food was very good.

"Sister, brother-in-law, I have something to do at noon. You go back and have dinner with our parents. You don't have to wait for me."

When it was almost noon, Hu Yang and his sister and their family separated and took a car to this private restaurant located deep in the alley.

"Mr. Hu, I kept you waiting for a long time."

Hu Yang waited in the private room for more than five minutes before Qi Xiangmin and Secretary Zhang walked in.

"I've just arrived, please take a seat."

Hu Yang stood up to greet Qi Xiangmin and Secretary Zhang. Wu Xinhui waited for everyone to sit down, filled their cups with hot tea, then turned around and left the private room.

"Mr. Hu, have you offended someone? We have also noticed the public opinion on the Internet. The person here is not malicious."

Secretary Zhang ordered the food, and after the waiter left, he went straight to the topic.

"Haha, I have offended a lot of people. I really can't guess which master is behind it to create such a big storm."

Hu Yang shook his head. He also didn't know who was behind it.

Qi Xiangmin smiled slightly and said:

"Mr. Hu's mentality is good, but your way of handling public crises is a bit rough. Don't handle this kind of thing too casually, and don't let others get in your way. There may be national media coming to interview you in the next two days.

, you should talk more about the semiconductor industry, and don’t talk about your mansion and yacht."

Qi Xiangmin's visit to Beijing this time was also entrusted by the province. From the province to the city, no one wanted Populus euphratica to be attacked without limit.

Hu Yang nodded and did not ask for details. Obviously, there is an inevitable connection between the interview by the national media and Qi Xiangmin's appearance in the capital.

At this time, the waiter knocked on the door and came in to start serving the food. After a while, the food and wine were all served.

"Mr. Hu, the leader has official activities in the afternoon, so I can't even drink this glass of wine."

Secretary Zhang is not being pretentious. He actually has an important meeting to attend in the afternoon. Not only can he not drink, but Qi Xiangmin can't drink either.

"Then you can drink some juice."

Hu Yang always feels that when a few people sit down to eat and don't drink a little wine, there will be no atmosphere at the table.

"Hey, Mr. Hu, the city's energy is limited and we can't help you much in this matter. I hope you can handle it on your own."

Qi Xiangmin had used almost all his connections to get this national media to agree to interview Populus euphratica.

Of course, the article published after the interview will undoubtedly be beneficial to Populus euphratica.

After dinner, Qi Xiangmin and Secretary Zhang left in a hurry.

Hu Yang also returned to his courtyard by car.

As he walked through the door, a reporter named Lu called him. He hoped to interview Hu Yang in the afternoon.

Hu Yang thought about it and decided to meet at the Beijing company.

The interview lasted for about two hours, during which reporter Lu asked many questions, but they mainly focused on the current development status of the domestic semiconductor industry and its future prospects.

"Mr. Hu, if you were asked to predict, how many years will it take for the overall level of domestic semiconductors to catch up with the international advanced level?"

Putting down the interview book in his hand, reporter Lu smiled and asked the last question.

"Well, this is difficult to estimate. Personally, I think it will take about ten years."

The semiconductor industry is the culmination of human technology and represents the most cutting-edge technology level in the world.

The industry chain is very long, and if you want to fully understand it, even ten years may not be enough.

For example, in terms of upstream raw materials and equipment, the domestic technical level is far from the international advanced level. Ten years is definitely an optimistic estimate.

Hu Yang's prediction is mainly from the aspect of design and manufacturing. He feels that we still need to give everyone some confidence.

"Ten years? This time is acceptable. Okay, that's it for today's interview. Thank you, Mr. Hu, for giving us hope."

Reporter Lu stood up and said goodbye. Before leaving, he told Hu Yang that this interview report would be published publicly within a week.

After seeing off Reporter Lu, Hu Yang, accompanied by Ye Chong, inspected a circle of companies in the capital.

"Mr. Hu, the Kyoto Building has now been topped out, and the interior decoration project will be completed before the end of June this year."

Jingdu Building is the largest investment project of Jingcheng Company. Ye Chong took the initiative to make a report before Hu Yang asked.

"Well, the project is progressing well. Manager Ye, as I said before, I would rather go a little slower and ensure the quality of the project. The Spring Festival will be coming soon. For employees who live in other places, you have to create conditions for them to go home for the New Year.

....."

Hu Yang walked around casually and left the Beijing company.

Two days later, Reporter Lu's interview report was published in national media.

The title of the article is very official, "Wandering forward - the domestic semiconductor industry is ushering in the dawn."

To be honest, the content of this article is relatively objective, and it also quotes a lot of detailed data.

However, as soon as the article came out, some people still criticized it, saying that it was to cleanse the ground for Populus euphratica.

However, all major forums and websites have reposted this article. Some accounts that have been criticized too much have also been banned.

This wave of black Populus euphratica trend has finally lost its popularity.

Hu Yang doesn't pay much attention to online public opinion these days. For him, such online attacks will not cause him any real losses.

However, the driving force behind this incident must be uncovered.

"Mr. Hu, I investigated the source of the funds and found that the funds came from the Guo family in Xiangjiang. Although there is no direct evidence, I judge that there is a high probability that the third son of the Guo family personally handled this matter."

Han Wen came to the capital from Xiangjiang. His investigation work came to an end and he came to a basic conclusion.

"Guo Laosan? Why did he do this?"

Hu Yang found it incredible that he and this arrogant second generation had never had any interaction, and he really couldn't figure out what the other party's purpose was.

"Mr. Hu, before I came, Director Yu Hongbo asked me to bring you a report. He said that the answer to Guo Laosan's unwillingness to offend you may be here."

As Han Wen spoke, he took out a document bag and handed it to Hu Yang.

Hu Yang immediately realized that the other party was probably not doing this out of personal grudges, but for financial gain.

Sure enough, when Hu Yang took out the report and read it, he discovered the problem.

According to Yu Hongbo's observation, funds have been secretly absorbing Mingkang Communications' stocks recently. It stands to reason that with the involvement of large funds, Mingkang Communications' stock price should rise sharply.

But some time ago, Hu Yang, the head of the Huijia Group, had too much negative publicity, and the stock prices of the entire Huijia Group's listed companies fell slightly.

Hu Yang immediately understood that someone was using means to suppress the stock price, with the purpose of buying Mingkang Communications shares at a low price.

"Lao Yu, how many shares of Mingkang Communications do you estimate the other party has bought during this period?"

Hu Yang immediately called Yu Hongbo, who needed to come up with corresponding countermeasures.

"It's just that the quantity is not large, so I didn't report the matter directly to you. I judge that although there have been many rumors about you, boss, in recent times, most investors are still in a wait-and-see state. Therefore, some people want to lower the price

It is not easy to buy the shares of Mincom Communications, and you need to be patient and buy bit by bit."

Yu Hongbo believes that although the other party has successfully suppressed the stock price, investors' willingness to sell is not strong. Therefore, the other party can only buy bit by bit, and the trading volume is not large.

"Well, I understand, Lao Yu, please keep an eye on me recently and report any changes to me immediately."

Hu Yang confessed and then hung up the phone.

Then he looked at Han Wen and said, "Awen, please go find Mr. Gao. There are some things that are not convenient to discuss over the phone."

Hu Yang explained clearly to Han Wen carefully, and Han Wen immediately flew back to the deep sea.

Ten days before the Spring Festival, Mincom Communications suddenly issued an announcement stating that the company planned to acquire the mobile phone business of "Alcatel" and that negotiations had entered a substantive stage.

This news was interpreted as positive by the market. On the day of the announcement, Mincom Communications' stock price surged 9.37%.

The next day, Mingkang Communications' stock price jumped higher and rose by more than 9% throughout the day.

After several days of sharp rises, the stock price of Mincom Communications easily exceeded HK$45. This also made many investors who did not sell at low levels feel very happy.

As for the large funds that want to slowly absorb this stock at a low price, they will definitely not be able to achieve their goal. If you still want to continue buying, you can only buy it at a price exceeding HK$45.

This is actually the purpose of Hu Yang in asking Gao Mingkang to issue the announcement. No matter what purpose Guo Laosan is behind making trouble, Hu Yang cannot let him take advantage.

Want to use negative public opinion to suppress the stock price, and then buy at a low price yourself?
