Chapter 29 SD Bohai
Huatai Stock Exchange was established in December 1990. Fengtian, the capital of Bohai Province, was one of its first cities to open online stores. In four years, it has experienced the craziest surge and the tragic plummet. It has educated people on this land with bloody facts, what is the stock market?
And at the end of July 1994, it was its darkest moment since its birth.
Since this year, the Shenzhen and Shanghai stock markets have been extremely sluggish, and the Shanghai Composite Index once fell to more than 300 points. The stocks that were originally rich and rushed to buy are turned into waste paper that was ruined. The once bustling stock exchange is now deserted.
Zhou Shuo stopped in front of its door for a moment, walked in. In the middle of the trading hall was a rolling display screen, showing the prices and information of stocks. Opposite it was a sea of blue plastic seats, which looked like there were hundreds of seats.
However, in the empty hall at this time, there were only three or five retail investors sitting there bored. They seemed to have met each other, and they would occasionally chat with each other, but they were too lazy to look up at the display screen.
On both sides of the hall are the exchange's business windows. The service staff inside the window are wearing neat short-sleeved white shirts and a computer is placed in front of them. The dress that should have been energetic and capable inexplicably shows a sense of dullness.
Zhou Shuo picked a business window casually, knocked on the glass window with his hand, and woke up the salesperson who was in a daze. The salesperson had a round and fat face, white face, and had tender skin, which was obviously a pampered person.
But he saw him raising his head lazily and asked in a tone that was not awake, "What's the matter?"
"Open an account." Zhou Shuo didn't say much, handed over his identity information and bank passbook, and then waited with peace of mind.
Seeing that the business came to the door, the salesperson finally became a little more energetic and started to handle the procedures quickly. After a while, he threw out several forms for Zhou Shuo to fill in, and then asked: "How much money can be transferred to the securities trading account?"
Zhou Shuo said without raising his head while filling out the form: "All."
The salesperson found his passbook, looked up at the back and looked for the balance of the last record, and immediately took a breath. He confirmed carefully: "Would you transfer all the 200,000 yuan in the passbook to the securities trading account?"
"That's right."
There was a hint of impatientness in Zhou Shuo's voice, and this also needs to be confirmed. Has this person never seen the money? How many 200,000 yuan a day in the hands of the brokerage firm may not count it?
Yes, in those years when the stock market was booming, I haven’t seen these salespeople how much money? Millions, millions, and tens of millions of funds used to be nothing to them. But in 1994, those who dared to do this were either running away or dead. Even those who practiced with thousands of dollars were rare now. After all, no one’s money was ripped from the wind or caught in the water.
Hearing the number "200,000", other salesmen on the counter also looked at Zhou Shuo with strange eyes, and even some whispers came from the corner where they were out of sight. If you try to distinguish, you can clearly hear titles such as: sucker, old hat, and fool...
The stock trading procedures were completed quickly. Zhou Shuo received a bunch of supporting documents, took out the shareholder code card and handed it back, saying, "Please buy me SD Bohai."
The salesperson operated on the computer for a while and turned around and asked, "How many shares did you buy?"
Zhou Shuomo calculated and replied: "Buy 60,000 shares first."
SD Bohai refers to SD Bohai Group Co., Ltd., which was later Ginza Co., Ltd.. It was listed on the SH Stock Exchange on May 6, 1994, with the stock code: 600858. The stock price at the end of July 1994 fluctuated around 3.18, and 60,000 shares were around 190,800 yuan.
In other words, if we use the fashionable lines of the Gambler God at that time to describe him, it would be a full shuttle.
"Uh-Are you sure?" the salesperson asked in disbelief.
Zhou Shuo nodded indifferently and said calmly: "Confirm."
Such a gamble suddenly ignited the enthusiasm of everyone in the exchange, and rumors began to spread at a speed that exceeded the light. Before he could buy the transaction, he could evade and evasive eyes shot at him.
After the transaction was completed, the shareholder code card was taken back. Zhou Shuo left as if nothing had happened, leaving only the endless discussion in the trading hall.
Zhou Shuo didn't walk far away when he suddenly heard a shout from behind him. When he looked back, he turned out to be the fat salesperson.
The salesperson waved his arms and shouted, and came to his side with panting. He took a breath and then said, "Huhu, you, I forgot to get your delivery order, give it to me!"
Zhou Shuo looked at him with a little surprise. This thing is similar to a small receipt to withdraw money from the bank. It is just a query function. It doesn’t matter whether it is taken or not. However, he still smiled and took the stock delivery order and thanked him: "Thank you so much, please send it here so far."
"It's okay!" The salesperson stood up straight and took a deep breath. He hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's not easy for you to take out 200,000 to trade stocks, right? Alas, after listening to my advice, this year's market may not have a good day. Let's sell it quickly while there are not many losses! The stock market is risky, so how can you make a full position when you come up!"
Zhou Shuo looked him up and down after hearing this, shook his head and smiled. He asked, "What's your name?"
"Ah? My name is Pang Zhou." He couldn't react a little. He was obviously persuading him, but when he spoke, he felt that what he did was ridiculous?
Zhou Shuo patted his shoulder and said seriously: "Pang Zhou, you can see that you are a good person. If you are willing to believe me, hurry up and buy SD Bohai as much as you can!"
Pang Zhou stared blankly as Zhou Shuo walked away gradually, as if he was hypnotized, and his mind was blank. He just kept echoing: "Go and buy SD Bohai". The confidence in this sentence is so strong that he even lost the ability to distinguish.
Pang Zhou thought while walking, saying that he had any inside information when he entered the market with a lot of money? It must be like this, otherwise it would be impossible for a person who didn’t even have a trading account to enter the market with a 200,000 yuan for the first time. Yes, that’s right, it must be like this!
Pang Zhou returned to the exchange in a daze, grabbed the phone and started dialing. As soon as the beep passed, a stern voice answered the phone and asked, "Hey, who?"
"Mom, it's me Pang Zhou. You bring your shareholder code card and my passbook, come to the securities hall."
The taxi creaked and stopped in front of the trading hall of the securities company. A well-maintained middle-aged woman came out of the car. She was wearing a tulle-embroidered dress, her hair was curled with big waves, and a sun hat on her head. She was dressed gracefully but not extravagant, and she looked extraordinary.
The woman walked into the securities trading hall with high heels, walked straight to Pang Zhou's trading window, and asked, "Son, why did you suddenly ask me to bring my passbook? Where do you need money?"
Pang Zhou was so ill that he was so stubborn that he was thinking about buying SD Bohai. He didn't even know what she said, "Give me the code card and passbook quickly, it's useless."
The woman handed the passbook and code card to Pang Zhou, but he saw that his fingers were flying. In a moment, he transferred the money in the passbook to his trading account, and then bought 10,000 shares of SD Bohai stocks.
When the stock delivery order creaked out of the printer, he woke up as if he was in a dream and suddenly shuddered.
Me, what am I doing? How long have I saved up the 30,000 yuan? I was going to buy a house! I just replaced it with a pile of paper-like stocks? It was just because of a stranger, a strange saying, why am I so confused!
Seeing that his son's face turned pale in an instant, the woman asked with concern: "Son, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, don't worry." Pang Zhou tried hard to show a smile so that his mother would not worry. But he didn't know that his smile was even worse than crying.
Just when he wanted to sell the stock again, the wall clock in the securities trading hall suddenly rang the hourly sound. As soon as fifteen beeps passed, he futilely tapped the computer's Enter key, but the screen began to prompt the words "Connection has been interrupted".
Pang Zhou took a deep breath and comforted himself: It's okay, it's just a weekend. The current market has fallen so much that it's impossible to fall again. I think it's time to sell it after two days of rest days, and it's still time to sell again.
The stock market was closed, and the salesperson in the trading hall also started to get off work. My colleagues walked past Pang Zhou's counter, and suddenly said "huh", picked up the delivery order spit out of Pang Zhou's printer, and shouted in surprise: "Pang Zhou, did you actually buy 10,000 shares of SD Bohai?"
When the colleagues heard this, they all looked over and asked in surprise: "Are you okay? Do you still have to buy it at this time?"
"Yes, Pang Zhou, if you think you have too much money, we can help you spend it. Why are you so unrestrained and want to buy stocks?"
Colleagues gathered around him and chattered, saying a word and a word, laughing at his purchase delivery order. Pang Zhou snatched two of them and finally grabbed the delivery order back. He said stubbornly: "I think this stock will rise, no?"
After he said this, the hall quieted for a moment, and then a burst of laughter broke out.
"You said stocks will rise? Haha, hahaha!"
"Oh, I'm so laughing. I haven't seen a trace of red this year. I believe you are evil!"
Amid the ridicule of colleagues, Pang Zhou had to push the crowd away with all his might, pull his mother and run out.
