Zhang Yu's Huazhang Software began to gain fame in this way. Huazhang Software used a small amount of money to achieve a great result. By focusing on the social hot spots, it played a role in getting media exposure and getting hot spots through publicity on Wangfujing Street in three popular cities. At the same time, because of the units and schools invited to this public welfare event, Huazhang also accumulated a wave of invisible resources. The outside world thought that Huazhang spent a lot of money on this event, but in fact, Cheng Ran didn't even use half of the two million yuan he invested in the early stage. After all, the software that was said to cost 998 per set was actually the cost of pressing a disc if the R&D cost was not calculated. Huazhang signed a lot of software supply orders. The schools and units invited to participate on that day not only received free software, but also purchased other office software at the same time.
Zhang Yu's Huazhang software sales will be on the right track. I didn't expect that Teacher Zhang could make money for me so quickly. Sometimes when I see him at school, Cheng Ran feels that his eyes have become much softer.
As for Blue Dot Technology, the first phase of investment in the Lux team arrived, and the company recruited some people. Kang Ming resigned from Shenghua, gave up his options at Shenghua, and came to do EO for Lux.
In general, this group of people are full of passion, thinking that they can do anything, and have hardly ever suffered setbacks. Their strengths are to move forward courageously, but this also makes them unwilling to listen to too many opinions, let alone Cheng Ran being able to lead them. But that's it for now. In short, Blue Dot has set sail with the strategy of localizing the kernel of Lux, optimizing it for the desktop, and exporting it to the market mainly through P and OE.
During the period from the Chinese New Year to the winter vacation, the Yian Technology that Cheng Ran had ambushed in the stock market had actually already started moving. This stock had actually started operating since 1998, and the banker behind it had increased his holdings from 50,000 shares at the beginning, accounting for 15% of the market's outstanding shares. By 1999, his holdings had increased to 10 million shares, accounting for 85% of the outstanding shares.
How did the banker manipulate the market? He controlled four companies behind the scenes, used more than 600 individual stock accounts and three corporate stock accounts, and used himself as the trading object to buy and sell stocks without transferring ownership, thereby hyping up the stock price. The movement behind was so loud that the regulatory authorities took notice. After checking, it was found that the concentrated holdings were too serious, and it would be strange if nothing happened. A few companies accounted for 85% of the circulating shares, so it was easy to find the real owner.
When Cheng Ran bought in, he held 800,000 shares, equivalent to about 2% of the circulating shares. After the market maker behind Yian Technology started to act, the stock price rose all the way from October 1999 to the beginning of the year, with almost no adjustment days in the middle. Cheng Ran started to sell when the stock price was over 80 yuan, and sold all his stocks when the price was close to 110 yuan.
Because his ship is not big, and when the stock price soars, the entire plate begins to grow, so Cheng Ran's escape did not attract much attention. In fact, even if the regulatory authorities come to investigate later, they may find some clues of the layout of the accounts controlled by Zhao Qing, but these accounts did not participate in the left and right buying and selling of the banker, but only made low-price layouts. At most, it can only reflect that the controller behind the account has great determination and vision.
Cheng Ran did not choose the highest point as the selling point. He extended the trading timeline and began to empty some accounts before the high point. He did not choose to take the biggest profit, and tried to make the whole behavior appear natural and reasonable. The real stock price high point was still above 120 yuan, and this carnival was nearing its end. However, within a few months, the regulatory agency intervened, and the entire stock went from a "myth" to an end.
800,000 shares of Yian were bought at 25 yuan and sold at an average price of 100 yuan.
After the operation, Cheng Ran took advantage of this trend and got more than 80 million in cash.
…
The winter vacation is here in a flash, and the trip to the United States is about to begin. The final exam results of No. 10 Middle School are out. Jiang Hongshao scored an extremely high score of 705, Cheng Ran ranked second with 696, and Zhu Xu ranked third with a difference of one point, 695.
The students behind them were catching up very closely, with 17 students scoring above 680 points, showing the strength of No. 10 Middle School. But Cheng Ran's result was still extremely impressive, because from the time he ranked second in the grade to the end of the semester, Cheng Ran once fell to fifth in the grade in the monthly exam.
But it jumped up again at the most critical moment. This made Sun Hui, the head teacher, feel that he was even more concerned about Cheng Ran than when his own daughter's report card was released. Sometimes it was as exciting as riding a roller coaster.
At this point, some people would come to Cheng Ran and ask about his learning method. But to be honest, Cheng Ran felt that this was not replicable, just like everyone's success was not replicable. Books are the same books, and knowledge is the same knowledge, but for different people, there are different ways of learning and accepting that suit them.
Cheng Ran's advantage is that he has a good foundation. After his rebirth, his grades have been excellent, which has given him the capital to move forward. Before his rebirth, he was admitted to a key university based on his own ability. During that time, he also organized a college entrance examination cram school. Although he is not a gold medal lecturer, if he takes the college entrance examination again, it will not be a problem for him to aim for the top universities.
His own thinking and approach to problem solving have become more mature, and he has mastered a learning method that suits him. He can form a mind tree diagram for all the knowledge points in high school. After his rebirth, he has been constantly supplementing the parts of this tree diagram that have been forgotten due to the passage of time.
More importantly, there is Jiang Hongshao who has always been in front.
Sometimes things are like this. When a pattern is formed, it seems that the top layer will form a natural pressure and advantage over the lower layer, because the pyramid formed by the leading knowledge and ability will also become solidified. The situation of Jiang Hongshao and Cheng Ran in the school of the Condor Heroes will probably become a solid and unbreakable structure in the ecology of the No. 10 Middle School.
This seems like metaphysical content that is difficult to explain with scientific principles.
Cheng Ran got a visa from the US Consulate in Chengdu. The visa officer was quite casual and did not ask too many questions. Some people say that visas depend a lot on one's character and the mood of the visa officer, but generally speaking, tourist visas are relatively easy to get. Based on Cheng Ran's later experience, tourist visas are likely to be approved if one pretends not to speak English and talks clumsily to the visa officer. On the contrary, if one speaks fluent English, the other party will suspect the possibility of detaining one.
Cheng Feiyang and others are on a B1 economic and trade delegation, while Cheng Ran is on a B2 tourist visa. At the same time, Cheng Ran has nominated Zhao Qing to join him on the trip to the United States.
Before leaving, Cheng Ran opened the piece of paper Yang Xia left and saw the beautiful handwriting on it. There was a list of recommended items, some important ones even had bows drawn on them. He could still feel the thoughtfulness of the staff.
Compared with this kind of treatment, Cheng Ran naturally recalled the time when Lao Jiang knew about his upcoming trip to the United States.
She acted very normally, not surprised that Cheng Ran had to travel for more than 20 hours to the other side of the ocean. She just said that he should pay attention to the jet lag, there are many fun things to do there, but he might not be used to the food, but it would be nice to overcome it and try the local food.
In this era, being able to go abroad, especially to America, which is now regarded by many as a paradise with sweet air, is a rare and even bragging thing for any ordinary family. It is just like when the friends in the yard knew about it, they all expressed strong interest in it, discussed and fantasized about it, and were so excited that they seemed to want to go out themselves.
This is a rare thing for ordinary people, but it doesn't seem strange to Jiang Hongshao. It's just like hearing about friends going on a trip in the future. After all, she and her aunt often go out like this.
Cheng Ran told her that he was going to Washington, which probably wouldn't have as rich natural scenery as the West, so the only option for tourism would be to take a historical and cultural route.
Jiang Hongshao smiled and said, "That's not bad. Traveling is great. I really envy you."
Cheng Ran said that? We are leaving right away, and there is no expression
Jiang Hongshao asked you what you want to say? I urge you to drink another cup of wine, for there will be no friends when you leave Yangguan to the west
Cheng Randao is so miserable, can he be a little more normal
Jiang Hongshao said that outside the long pavilion, the grass is green and endless beside the ancient road. I ask you when you will come back, and if you come, come quickly.
Cheng Ran said it would be ok if he came quickly, then it would be better to be tragic.
Jiang Hongshao recited again, "I see you off at the east gate of Luntai, and the road to Tianshan Mountains is covered with snow when you leave."
Cheng Ran asked, "What's the next sentence?" The word "Jun" came out of her mouth, and it was so gentle and lingering, which made me think a little bit.
Jiang Hongshao said playfully, "I can't see you anymore as I wind around the mountain, only your horse is left on the snow."
Cheng Ran was stunned. How could it be that only the horse was left? Could it be that you didn't hold the reins and fell off the cliff? It was indeed very tragic. So Cen Shen was sending his enemy away at that time.
Jiang Hongshao was smiling, and Cheng Ran deliberately said, "You're leaving tomorrow, don't you plan to see you off at the airport like in the movies and TV dramas?"
Jiang Hongshao asked, "Do you want me to come?"
Cheng Ran smiled and said forget it, it’s rare to run.
Jiang Hongshao responded, "Okay, I hope you have a safe journey and contact me when you get there."
Cheng Ran smiled and said okay.
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Ran lay down.
After listening to the tragic and heroic parts, I still didn’t hear the gentle line “My longing for you is so great that it makes me feel so far away from home”.
