Reborn as a tycoon in Hong Kong

Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

In the hall, the registration office where stocks were originally purchased was now full of people.

It's not yet nine o'clock, the stock market has not started trading, and the employees responsible for transaction registration at the exchange have not started working yet, but there are already a large number of investors waiting in line.

No one is a fool. When Hutchison Whampoa's announcement came here and investors learned that Hutchison Whampoa had earned nearly US$250 million, they knew that Hutchison Whampoa's stock price would definitely rise sharply today, and a call for bidding would follow. Buy it and earn it.

Therefore, any investor who has money in hand will of course line up as soon as possible to occupy the position and want to buy stocks as soon as possible.

Because there were so many people queuing, it caused chaos, and the exchange had to arrange for security guards to keep an eye on it.

The executives of the exchange were also watching. Someone said: "This is not the first time. I think we should learn from London and New York and connect to computers so that stock transactions can be conducted through computers. In this way, even if there are a large number of investors If you want to buy the same stock, you don’t have to queue up together like now, you can just count the order time directly on the computer.”

Someone nodded in agreement: "Indeed, this is not the first time this has happened this year."

"Wharf and Hutchison Whampoa, I seem to remember these two stocks." Someone said.

"The matter of accessing the computer can be considered, but it must be approved by the Hong Kong government, and it will not be done in a short time."

The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is managed by the British, and most of the companies listed here are British-funded companies. They come from London, the financial capital, and are very familiar with the trading methods in London. They know how convenient it is to trade through computers, so they are interested in this. They all agreed.

At nine o'clock, the employees of the exchange begin to go to work, and the stock market officially begins call auction trading.

"I want to buy Hutchison Whampoa shares, 300 shares for HK$27!"

Yesterday's closing price of Hutchison Whampoa was less than HK$22.5, but no one is a fool. Everyone knows that Hutchison Whampoa's stock price will rise sharply. How can it be bought at this price? Therefore, it must be registered to buy at a certain premium. OK.

"I buy Hutchison Whampoa, 500 shares at HK$30!"

"I want to sell Hutchison Whampoa's shares at a price of HK$39.9, a total of 400 shares. Please register them first!"

"Hutchison Whampoa."

“I want to buy Hutchison Whampoa”

The transactions of investors queuing up are all related to Hutchison Whampoa, whether they are buying or selling, but regardless of whether they are bought or sold, they are registered at a premium, but the specific premium depends on the investors themselves.

At the same time, where the investors in the lobby cannot see, the big investors in the big houses are also queuing up to buy Hutchison Whampoa investors. They also buy at a premium, but they buy more funds. .

Until the end of the call auction, there were still many people who wanted to register to buy Hutchison Whampoa's shares, but time no longer allowed, so buying was suspended and the call auction statistics were conducted.

This is what happens with manual registration. Once there are too many investors buying, it will be too busy.

Before the stock market officially opened, Hutchison Whampoa's share price was finally calculated and some transactions were completed.

33.47 Hong Kong dollars! This is the price after collective bidding!

"Oh my god, it's increased by 50%. It's so crazy!" "Ah! I didn't buy it!" "I lost money, I made a loss, why did I sell it at the price of 33 Hong Kong dollars?! "Okay! It's going up well! Keep going up!" "It's done! I'm going to do it!"

Hutchison Whampoa's collective bidding came out, and the hall was noisy for a while, with every stockholder making different voices based on their own positions.

The call auction is 33.47 Hong Kong dollars, which means that all the purchases below this price have not been bought, and all the sales below this price have been sold.

The time from the end of the bidding to the official opening of the stock market passed quickly.

Hutchison Whampoa's stock price continues to rise at a speed visible to the naked eye. Although there are occasionally some sell orders, the buy orders are even more turbulent. In just a few minutes, the stock price broke through the price of HK$40, and it is still rising.

"Rise! Keep rising! It breaks through 50 Hong Kong dollars, and the total market value exceeds 20 billion Hong Kong dollars!"

The stockholders holding Hutchison Whampoa shares in their hands yelled with red eyes, hoping that the stock price of Hutchison Whampoa would go up as high as possible.

"Crazy! It's so crazy!"

In the corner of the trading floor, Lin Qingxia couldn't help but click her tongue as she looked at the excited investors.

"Yeah, that's crazy!"

Deng Lijun murmured to herself. She didn't know whether it was affected by the atmosphere at the scene or because of the sharp rise in stock prices. At this moment, she was also very excited.

Yesterday, Lin Baicheng and Deng Lijun said that Hutchison Whampoa's stock price would rise sharply today. Since they had nothing to do, Deng Lijun and Lin Qingxia decided to come to the trading floor to take a look. The first is to see how much Hutchison Whampoa's stock price will rise; the second is to be curious about how stock trading works.

After dressing up, the two people arrived here without attracting anyone else's attention. As soon as they arrived, they saw many stock investors queuing up. After asking, they found out that these people were queuing up to buy Hutchison Whampoa stocks.

Later, they saw the emotional reactions of many investors and felt a little crazy, as if they had lost their minds.

"Sister Lijun, your investment has doubled!"

When Hutchison Whampoa's stock price rose above HK$42, Lin Qingxia excitedly shook Deng Lijun's arm.

"I saw it too."

Deng Lijun responded happily. The cost price of her stock was a little over 21 Hong Kong dollars. Now this price has doubled the market value of the stock in her hand, from 1 million Hong Kong dollars to 2 million Hong Kong dollars.

“It’s too fast to make money!”

Lin Qingxia was still shaking her head in disbelief. You must know that her current salary for a movie is only about 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. This was the salary she only received last year, and her previous salary was only five figures.

In this era, actors' salaries are not very high. Taking Hong Kong as an example, most of the box office of a movie will not exceed 5 million Hong Kong dollars. If the actors' salary is too high, how can the producers make money?

What's more, even if they are actors of the same level of fame, the salaries of male and female actors will be different. Maybe the male actor's salary is 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, but the female actor's salary is only 50,000 to 60,000 Hong Kong dollars, at most 60,000 to 70,000 Hong Kong dollars. The female actor's salary is always lower than that of the male actor.

"It's so fast!"

Deng Lijun nodded in agreement, but she knew very well that she had no ability to make this money herself and relied on Lin Baicheng's recommendation. Therefore, she also decided to believe in Lin Baicheng and continue to hold it no matter how the stock price rose until Lin Baicheng thought it was time to sell. Sell ​​again.

When Hutchison Whampoa's stock price reached HK$45, an increase of 100%, selling orders began to gradually increase and the upward trend slowed down.
