"Wang Yi is a company of excellent quality with great potential in Huaxia, and I have some cooperation with Wang Yi," Zhang Tianxing explained to Jian Ai.
"What kind of cooperation do you have with Wang Yi? Would you mind telling me?" Jian Ai became interested. She finally understood that Zhang Tianxing wasn't called the 'Number One Short-Seller' for nothing.
This undoubtedly demonstrated Zhang Tianxing's unique insight. Being able to achieve a decisive blow indicated his seasoned judgment. If Zhang Tianxing was cooperating with Wang Yi on a project, that project must have a promising future.
"It's nothing major; we're just collaborating on developing a game," Zhang Tianxing said casually.
The game development was still in its infancy, and Zhang Tianxing wasn't very confident about the final product.
Hearing Zhang Tianxing's words, Jian Ai's eyes lit up. Games were also very popular in the United States. Since the advent of computers, many games had become classics for players.
The gaming sector indeed held great promise. Jian Ai had even played games where players could interact online, which were incredibly engaging and addictive.
Within games, it was difficult to distinguish between dreams and reality.
The helpless and bullied in real life could, in the virtual world, gain superior equipment and strength by investing time, effort, or money.
This would bring profound spiritual satisfaction. Jian Ai was certain that online gaming would be a goldmine in the future.
"Are you guys developing an online game? I heard that online gaming is the future blue ocean, the next big trend," Jian Ai said with a smile. Since Zhang Tianxing was already developing games with someone, she thought she should buy stocks in a gaming company.
She didn't have time to find partners, so she could invest money as a shareholder. Her goals weren't high; she just wanted to receive dividends and have some pocket money.
As long as she chose the right track, Jian Ai believed she would profit, it was just a matter of how much.
In that case, buying some stocks in Wang Yi and riding Zhang Tianxing's coattails would be a good idea.
Zhang Tianxing's reputation as the 'Number One Short-Seller' wasn't undeserved. Following him to go long on Wang Yi seemed rather interesting to Jian Ai.
"Zhang Tianxing, let me ask you, you're the Number One Short-Seller, and now you're going long on Wang Yi stock. Is there a contradiction within you?" Jian Ai was a bit confused and wanted to get clarity. The small amount of money she invested was her little nest egg; if she lost it, she'd have to rely on her father.
However, customs in the United States were generally like this: once a child turned eighteen and became an adult, they were responsible for their own living expenses.
Parents rarely provided financial support to their adult children, as it was meant to cultivate their independence.
"I am always me. I was shorting the Nasdaq, and I am still long on Wang Yi stock." What contradiction was there? If I'm optimistic, I invest; if I'm not, I short. It's that simple, nothing else.
"Alright, then I'll buy some Wang Yi stock too. If we make money, I'll treat you to a meal. If we lose money, you'll treat me to meals," Jian Ai said with a smile.
She made up her mind: fortune favors the bold. How could one see a rainbow without going through the storm? She'd go for it, pouring all her savings in. Whether she'd feast or go hungry depended on Zhang Tianxing's skill level.
"The stock market is risky. Invest with caution. Everyone is responsible for their own account. Whether going long or short, you could lose everything. You must understand this," Zhang Tianxing said seriously.
There were no invincible generals in the stock market; any strategy could fail at some point.
Jian Ai chuckled, "Zhang Tianxing, I was just teasing you. I'm a lecturer at Harvard; how could I not have money? I'm a little rich girl from Harvard. Marrying me would save you twenty years of struggle. I'm giving you an opportunity; will you seize it?"
Looking at Jian Ai's charming expression, Zhang Tianxing coughed lightly. "Let me first write a report, an explanation of Wang Yi's financial statements, to address the issues in their report and instill confidence in investors."
"Why bother with all that trouble? Don't you have money? You made a lot shorting the Nasdaq. Just sweep in with funds, and the stock price will go up. It's that simple," Jian Ai asked, a little confused.
As a researcher, she didn't understand the intricacies of stock market operations.
"My dear grandmother, it's not as simple as you think. Stock price increases depend on market consensus. Even with immense personal capital, one cannot go against the market. If I were to forcefully push the price up with my money, there would be no need for the company to go public. If I lacked funds, I'd invest directly; why would I go public?" Zhang Tianxing chuckled and gave Jian Ai a brief explanation.
The stock market emphasizes liquidity, using investors' funds to allow listed companies to raise capital more effectively and serve production and daily life better.
It provides convenience for enterprises to grow and strengthen.
Wang Yi is a good company. Stocks like this are most favored by value investors.
Zhang Tianxing began writing profusely, stating his views on Wang Yi's financial reports, starting with the company's revenue situation for the quarter.
It was very good, continuing the trend of continuous growth.
So, where did the unimpressive numbers in the financial report come from? It was in the expenditure section for this year.
Wang Yi's expenditure section didn't list specific items, but it was likely due to dividends or new projects.
However, the expenditure was a huge sum. Based on his personal guess, Wang Yi wouldn't spend such a large amount carelessly.
Good steel should be used on the blade. He had reason to believe that Wang Yi had a new project, but their product hadn't been released yet.
To maintain secrecy, Wang Yi's financial report appeared so poor this time.
Wang Yi only had about three hundred employees and ample cash flow. This money wouldn't be spent recklessly.
As for whether Wang Yi's stock price was currently in a golden pit or if Wang Yi was about to delist, time would tell. We shall wait and see.
Upon seeing the article Zhang Tianxing wrote, Jian Ai was utterly impressed. She hadn't expected Zhang Tianxing to have so many strengths.
The young man was handsome, and his skills were extraordinary, exuding masculine charm. She hadn't expected him to have such literary talent.
Didn't young ladies fall for literary charm? He had talent, and she had beauty. They were a match made in heaven and suited for each other. At the very least, let him have a memory of her, and she, a memory of him.
