Global monopoly of technology

In the conference hall of the company headquarters, as the time for the general meeting of shareholders arrived as scheduled, the shareholders or shareholder representatives of the major Bluestar Technologies entered the venue.

The number is not large. There are about 160 shareholders, large and small, of which 70% are from Luo Sheng, and they are all senior executives in the company.

Luo Sheng ran into an old friend Xu Chenghua on the way to the venue. He came to Bluestar Technology to participate in this temporary shareholder meeting on behalf of Teng Xun.

"Your company has earned a lot recently," Luo Sheng said jokingly.

"It's true that we lent more than half of the shares to those short funds. Now Teng Xun holds 4.2% of BTC shares." Xu Chenghua said.

"Haha, it doesn't matter, it's normal business behavior." Luo Sheng said with a smile.

"I guess they won't make it yet, because I believe you can win. This is intuitive." Xu Chenghua looked at Luo Sheng and said.

"With your auspicious words, you must also win." Luo Sheng smiled indifferently and added: "But as a friend, I think I should keep the rest, and it will rise. Only suggestions, comments are not responsible."

After speaking, Luo Sheng smiled before Xu Chenghua could speak, and then accelerated his pace. After entering the venue, the two sides separated.

After a while, another group of people came in at the gate of the venue. The difference was that they were all foreign faces. The other shareholders in the venue immediately turned their attention to them. The shareholders and executives of Bluestar Technology all brought them together. Bad look.

These foreigners were the shareholder representatives sent by the airdrop agency to participate in this shareholders meeting. Faced with the stare of hundreds of pairs of eyes, a few of them calmly entered and sat down.

However, it was an uncomfortable stroke in my heart. Being stared at by so many deaths actually felt like a chill. After all, this was someone's territory.

This is the momentum of the home court.

"OK, since everyone is here, let's start the conference. It's just a process." Luo Sheng's voice resounded through the microphone, and some foreigners at the meeting also listened through the translator.

When the voice fell, Luo Sheng glanced at the shareholder representatives sent by the airdrop agencies, but he was expressionless.

In this opening remark, Luo Sheng bluntly stated that he has absolute control over Bluestar Technology.

"To vote on one thing today. After the board of directors passed a resolution and submitted a final vote to the shareholders' meeting, Bluestar Technology Group will issue 500 million new equity capital to the outside world, and it is expected to raise about 23.9 billion US dollars. OK, let’s vote now, agree. Shareholders please raise their hands."

Luo Sheng finished speaking, and saw that more than 70% of the shareholders in the audience raised their hands. They were all their own. They all knew what the shareholders meeting was going to do. Luo Sheng also raised his hands. A show of hands means that the proposal passed the vote of the shareholders meeting.

"What? Capital increase and share expansion?"

The short-term representative shareholders at the scene thought they had misheard their ears. They never thought that they would come to the Bluestar Technology headquarters to participate in the shareholders meeting today.

Really never dreamed that they would launch a public offering. At this moment, they were constantly wondering whether they had heard it wrong or Luo Sheng was stupid?

After regaining consciousness, it was confirmed that there was no mistake. Several short-term shareholder representatives whispered a few words, and then one of them said: "We abstain."

"Vote passed!"

A deliberation staff member present at the meeting announced immediately that the staff of the certification agency also recorded, and the voting produced legal benefits.

Everyone put their hands down one after another, Luo Sheng immediately got up and walked in front of the shareholder representative of the short institution, and smiled: "If I were Chanos, the first thing I would do after I go back is to immediately liquidate the position and stop the loss, oh The circulating market value of Bluestar Technology is less than 22% of the total market value. I am afraid that only 15% is less than in your hands."

The other party also responded without showing weakness: "If you are an enemy of Wall Street, the ending is doomed from the beginning."

Luo Sheng nodded in agreement and smiled: "Yes, all this is doomed from the beginning."

Having said that, without saying more, he turned around and left the meeting of shareholders, and everyone else left.

This shareholder meeting is just a process.

...

The news soon spread as if it had grown wings. It spread throughout the science and technology circles and the capital circles. The outside world was also confused. When many people in the industry saw relevant reports, they wondered whether the editors of the media had knocked the medicine. An article written deliriously.

Is Bluestar Technology Group launching a public offering on this occasion?

I'm afraid this is not because of ignorance, and you want to make a big joke in the capital world by your ability?

But then I realized that this was not an article written by the media editor who knocked out the medicine, but that it was just like this.

Luo Sheng issued an open letter to the outside world, which really hammered him.

The outside world was in an uproar, and the operation of Luo Sheng's honey juice was puzzling.

Overseas media organizations are also reporting on this incident, expressing ridicule in their articles, laughing at the rhythm of the big teeth, and marking Bluestar Technology's public offering activity as the largest financing joke in history.

All those who see Bluestar Technology Group's upset are waiting for the most embarrassing public offering in history. A huge technology giant's external financing is a situation where no one joins in the subscription. The embarrassment of this situation can become the richest man in his life. Black history.

However, the outside ridicule and questioning voices did not affect the established operating arrangements of the Bluestar Technology Group. Although the senior executives within the group company also lacked confidence in this stock raising activity, they did not know what medicine was sold in the big BOSS gourd. But they are still strictly following Luo Sheng's layout.

At the same time, Qin Weimu received the news of the public offering and immediately let the family fund operate. All of its private equity fund accounts were activated. More than 2,500 fund accounts, more than half of which were from North America and registered in the Mainland There are only more than 300 private equity funds, and the remaining branches are in other continents.

The purpose of doing so is very simple, to sow discord.

This is how a self-directed and self-acted financing operation began.

...

At the end of December, Wall Street.

In a medium-sized conference room, many bearish predators once again gathered together, Chanos looked at the document report in his hand and said suspiciously: "HIIB? How come this investment bank hasn't heard of it before? How is it like suddenly Came out?"

After speaking, he looked around the attendees with doubts. "HIIB" is the abbreviation of Hengxin International Investment Bank. The investment bank acted as the sponsor and sole underwriter for this public offering of Bluestar Technology Group.

At this time, Paul Watson of Goldman Sachs replied: “This is an international investment bank registered in the Cayman Islands this year with a registered capital of 15 billion US dollars. If it weren’t for HIIB to become the exclusive fundraising operation of Bluestar Technology. The underwriters surfaced, I am afraid no one noticed."

George Soros frowned and looked at Paul Watson: "What are you talking about? A registered capital of 15 billion US dollars? How can there be such a large scale of capital? Has the identity of the shareholders been verified?"

Paul Watson said: "From the information on the surface, private equity funds are used to hold shares. 56% of HIIB's funding sources are some private equity funds in North America, 28% from private equity funds in Europe, and 11% from private equity funds in Asia. Funds, the rest come from other places. We investigated some private equity funds, almost all of which were established less than three years ago. Of these, 66% of private equity funds were established this year."

Speaking of this, Chanos suddenly said with certainty: "Damn, these private equity funds are probably just a shield, and vested interests are hiding deeper."

Paul Watson nodded and said: "Yes, as we investigate further, we find that the cross-holding of multiple institutions is so complicated that it is completely clueless. Even... some investment banks on Wall Street seem to have some equity swap transactions in it."

Obviously, the other party does not want to let people know who the owner is behind the scenes, and it is impossible to find out. There are so many investment banks on Wall Street, many salesmen, and those fund managers. They also want to create profits for the fund and achieve performance. There have been more transactions in various financial derivatives.

These funds are actually trust products under the Luosheng Family Fund. Since the day the family fund was created, account registration has been continuously opened. The earliest has been six years, and the latest was established three months ago. Directly registered There are as many as 8,800 private equity fund accounts, let alone indirectly controlled.

Although there is no direct evidence to prove it, the bear predators present firmly believe that HIIB investment bank must have a close relationship with Luo Sheng.

I don't know why, but there is always a bad feeling.

Chanos scanned the crowd and said: "Do you think Bluestar Technology can raise funds this time? How much can it be raised? How many accounts will there be subscription?"

Everyone looked at each other, and no one came up to answer immediately.

Chanos is not only pondering this question, but everyone present is pondering it.

According to normal logic, it is impossible for Bluestar Technology to raise a penny in this public offering. A little risk-conscious can see that there is no difference between subscribing for new shares issued by BTC and burning the money directly. .

Go in = get stuck.

But the problem lies here. Everyone knows that this is not feasible. Don't the senior management of Bluestar Technology understand it?But what is happening is that Bluestar Technology has implemented an uncharacteristic public offering at this time.

The conclusion is not difficult to draw, there must be something tricky in it.

The predators present racked their brains to analyze and try to find the rules, otherwise the stone chosen in their hearts would not fall.

At this moment, a man dressed in formal attire hurriedly entered the meeting room. This movement caused the contemplating predators to quickly follow their reputation.

"Everyone... Bluestar Technology Group released a message on its official website late at 4:30 in the morning in the East Eight District. The company disclosed that the public offering was a great success. The $23.9 billion financing plan received 2500 accounts. Institutions oversubscribed as much as 6.3 times, and the actual subscription amount was US$150.72 billion."

As the man entering the conference room finished reporting, the air seemed to be frozen in an instant, and the audience fell into a dead silence, and everyone was sluggish like a sculpture.
