Chapter 249 When did Li Yuan become so easy to talk to?

Lending stocks to brokers is actually a normal thing, because brokers can make money.

They trade NVIDIA no longer every day or two. Basically, they are calculated on an annual basis. Most of the positions will hardly be moved. Isn't it normal to lend them to brokers and earn six or seven points of profit every year?

As for whether those votes have any impact on their control?

Under normal circumstances, there is no impact, because if they want to operate, they can just go to the brokerage to open a contract. If this brokerage does not exist, there is no way that the other brokerage will also disappear, right?

It can be said that it has absolutely no impact on itself.

It's like lending out your own money. When you don't need it, you can leave it out to collect long-term interest. When you need it, you can borrow it from others and you will only have to pay short-term interest.

After this news came out, no one blamed the guy because someone else was doing it too.

They immediately started looking for those brokers to see how many stocks the brokers still had.

As long as you can get it back, it's not a big deal.

However, half an hour later, when all the data was gathered in this conference room, everyone was stunned.

The leader slapped the table and shouted: "Why is there only 24% left? At the beginning, we held 55% of NVIDIA, the brokerage held 20%, and the market included several natural person major shareholders who collectively held 25%. , now we only have 24% left, where are the chips?”

"Contact Mandel immediately and intercept our chips! We are about to be kicked out! Bastard!"

If 15% of the chips in Mandel's hand can be captured, then there will still be 39% overall, plus Morgan's 10%, which means he still has the initiative.

It's impossible for them to give up now.

Not only did they not make any money in this position, they also lost a lot of money entering it.

But before their phone call came through, Mandel's phone number came first.

"Guys, I know you have made a lot of money, give me some more chips, and I will completely blow up Optian Capital! They are just a little bit closer..."

Li Yuan looked at Nvidia's stock price of $120 and was really greedy.

But he knows that as long as the chips are in his own hands, they are worthless.

For example, in 2021, Wingtech paid a high price to acquire an NWF semiconductor company in Daiying. At this time, this semiconductor company was already going bankrupt, and its own value was pitiful.

However, in order to expand its semiconductor business, Wingtech was still willing to acquire it at a premium, and finally gave a price of nearly 90 million US dollars.

That company was also happy to have someone take over the business, and the market didn't think it was a big deal. A company on the verge of bankruptcy itself didn't have very powerful technology, and they would definitely be happy if there was an enemy who was willing to take over the business.

However, after the deposit was given and the contract of intent was signed, Daiying directly vetoed the deal.

The reason is that their beautiful father does not allow Chinese funds to acquire any semiconductor companies in Western countries, even if they are junk.

After all, there are still three thousand nails in the broken ship, and they are determined not to allow Chinese funds to get any benefit from them.

Even the beautiful country has such lenient control over rubbish companies like NWF, and Nvidia can't even think about it.

Whenever Li Yuan reveals his intentions, he will soon be stopped by various means.

After all, when it comes to shamelessness, who can compare to the United States.

The A-share market will leave a bottom line, while the U.S. stock market will be stripped of your underwear.

Nvidia currently has a market value of only US$52 billion. Li Yuan holds 27% of the shares, and its market value is only US$14 billion.

In fact, he spent a full 16 billion U.S. dollars for this bargaining chip.

Qingtian Capital spent less because the two parties held positions at different times.

Qingtian Capital currently holds 17% of the shares, with a total value of US$8.9 billion.

In fact, the investment has reached 10.3 billion US dollars.

If Li Yuan had not been covering for them, there is no doubt that Qingtian Capital would have been liquidated in this position.

A large amount of chips have been taken over by Li Yuan, and there is little pressure on Qingtian Capital.

At present, the cost of Qingtian Capital has dropped. After all, both parties are under great pressure. In order not to expose any flaws, Qingtian Capital frantically takes chips.

The cost of Qingtian Capital is US$130, and they received a large amount of chips worth about US$120, which reduced the cost a lot.

It can be right on the liquidation line.

Their total loss cannot exceed US$7.7 billion. Once the loss reaches this level, it means liquidation.

Now it's actually only three points behind.

However, they can continue to increase capital investment in the future. Currently, they still have almost 500 million US dollars, which will be 5 billion US dollars when leveraged.

According to the degree of gaming at the position of $120, if Morgan wants to explode, he must at least drop Nvidia's stock price to 105.

After all, Qingtian Capital would spend hundreds of millions of dollars on every subsequent point. If it weren't for Li Yuan's help, even more money would have to be spent.

Li Yuan knew that it had nothing to do with quantification now.

After three consecutive weeks of games, quantification was slowly introduced into the game, and in the end Morgan had to put aside quantification and end the game himself.

Morgan had no choice, because he invested too much, and unknowingly invested 20 to 30 billion US dollars.

Leverage is also money. Although the principal is only two to three billion US dollars, in fact, losses will also be leveraged.

The greater the investment, the stronger the desire to win.

After all, people are not programs. After emotions are substituted, it is inevitable that they cannot help themselves.

Originally, he just wanted to use his own funds to take over today, reserve more funds for Qingtian Capital, and continue to mediate with Quantitative.

But the damage was so severe today that he was almost full and couldn't buy any more.

In addition, we couldn't let Prime Capital spend just a few hundred million or more than a billion to get through it easily. They would analyze the data, so we asked Prime Capital to take over almost three billion US dollars and directly maximize the position. .

There was almost an hour before the closing, and Li Yuan had already called Chen Jie half an hour ago.

At this time, Chen Jie was communicating with the other party.

After chatting for a while, she handed the phone to Li Yuan.

"Hello."

"Hello, sir."

The two parties officially started communication.

"The lady just said that you have NVIDIA shares, sir? More than 20%?"

"Yes, but I have no interest in NVIDIA and want to find someone to take over."

"Can you tell me how many shares it is?"

"twenty four%"

"This is indeed an attractive number, but there is some gap with our expectations. We need more than 36%."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "If there are that many, I will personally end it. Nvidia's net profit in the fourth quarter of last year was a full US$1.1 billion. Do you think such a company only deserves a market value of US$50 billion?"

The other party was silent for a while and said: "NVIDIA is a good company. If Mr. only has 5%, we are very happy to take over and are even willing to give a premium of more than 30%. If Mr. has more than 36%, we are even willing to give 60% % premium, but only for the 24% position, I’m sorry sir, we can’t give you a price.”

This position is too embarrassing for them. They also know that Nvidia is very strong and have been laying out their plans in the past two years.

It's a pity that I can't get too many chips at all, and I can't run to support other funds, so currently there are only 4% of the stocks in total, just as a supplement, and to mix in some soup.

Although it is enough to shock them that someone can hold 24%, it is really tasteless to get this ratio and it is a pity to abandon it.

Even if you add what they have in hand, it is only 28%. Overall, they cannot defeat the opponent and cannot take the initiative. They have no final say in subsequent capital operations.

It is very difficult to make a profit.

You may even be stranded with a large amount of money.

In the securities market, one can either control the market and harvest funds at will.

Either you can mix it up, and you don’t have too many chips in your hand, so you can make as much money as possible while still maintaining absolute freedom and being able to retreat at any time.

"What if I say that neither Vanguard nor BlackRock currently hold less than 25% of their combined chips?"

"Sir, you are kidding. They can't hold only such a small position in the stocks they dominate."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "If they are leading it, then where do the 24% of the stocks in my hand come from?"

"???"

Now comes the problem.

It can be seen from Nvidia's market that Qingtian Capital's shareholding ratio has reached 17%, and these chips are limited.

If there is a group of people outside holding 24%, plus their 4%, then the total is 45%, plus the 7% held by the founder of Nvidia, it is 52%

The 20% held by the brokers will not be considered for the time being, because they cannot open contracts, which means that the chips in the hands of the brokers are gone.

But even so, the number of other funds held will definitely not be small.

NVIDIA has been the hottest ticket in the US stock market in the past two weeks, and it has attracted a lot of money from around the world.

It's not surprising that outsiders hold 20%, maybe even more.

Based on this calculation, it seems that the guys at Vanguard and BlackRock really don’t have much leverage left.

This is an exciting number, because if successful, it may bring tens of billions of dollars in return.

But there are still risks.

"Sir, we still can't give a price."

"It's okay, don't worry, I can wait... I will continue to collect chips on the market. Although I know it will be difficult, I am willing to try."

"Sir, please give me a few minutes and we will think about this."

"Man, my cost is very low, only $132. I believe you can give a reasonable quotation. If there is no quotation, I think there is no need for us to continue to waste time."

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

He told the truth. In addition to concealing 3% of the stock, he even told the other party the cost price.

It's not that he can't get more chips, but for his status, more chips also means more pressure.

If he is only pursuing the profit of this account, of course the more chips, the better.

But in fact, the money in this account is enough.

Things like U.S. dollars have almost no value in individual hands, and there are only a handful of scenarios where they can be used.

Even if we purchase raw materials, we won’t use that much.

He didn't want to serve the black and gray industry, and he couldn't do it himself.

His home court is always in China, so the third phase of the fund is the most important.

There is also his share in it, which is equivalent to a legal money laundering.

Chen Jie asked at this time: "What if the other party doesn't agree?"

"Sister Chen, isn't this your problem? It means you are not looking for our target customers."

Chen Jie: "..."

It seems that's really the case.

Li Yuan inexplicably gave her strength.

She began to wonder if there were any other customers...

Li Yuan has been weighing the pros and cons of both parties.

There is almost no room for maneuver on the part of Qingtian Capital. Once no one takes over the chips in his hand, the chips in Qingtian Capital's hands will be worthless.

Then he can only make back the losses of Qingtian Capital through the chips in his hand.

No one knows how long this process will last, but it will not exceed half a year.

When the chips in the hands of Optimus Capital are lifted, Nvidia's stock is destined to be worthless.

If he can't sell it today, he will start preparing a deposit for Qingtian Capital...

At this time, the closing time is getting closer, and Nvidia's stock price began to rebound.

I rushed in a lot of money and started shopping around like crazy.

After the price reached 130 US dollars, many people were willing to sell their chips, and the overall trading volume was still rising rapidly.

But after all, they only have a small amount of chips, even if the number of people is large and the transaction frequency is high.

About ten minutes have passed, and the trading volume has increased by nearly one billion U.S. dollars. The rush for funds is quite fierce, but it seems to be suppressing it, not wanting the stock price to break through too much.

By about $130, it held on, and trading began to slow down.

However, whenever chips come out, they will still be eaten immediately.

Chen Jie thought about it for a while and said: "Maybe there are people who can cooperate. But I'm not very sure. How about I contact them and try? Even if it doesn't succeed, we can still create a bidding situation to give those people before a sense of oppression. .”

Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "No need, they have probably made a decision by now."

"???"

Chen Jie's cell phone rang at exactly this moment.

Since the other party has called, it means that they have made a decision and are willing to make an offer.

It remains to be seen whether Li Yuan can be satisfied, but at least the matter is done.

"how do you know?"

She handed the phone to Li Yuan in confusion.

Li Yuan: "Because someone is assisting me, someone is trying to gain ground on the board. What do you think is the reason? Just like a liar, the more guilty he is, the more anxious he will be to prove himself."

"So... you are not guilty?"

This guy Li Yuan seems to be so upright in everything he does.

A scumbag can be so obvious that he doesn't mind what others say.

"ha……"

Li Yuan answered the phone with a smile.

"Sir, we have finished our discussion and are willing to give you a 10% premium on your cost. What do you think of this price?"

Li Yuan said: "If it were before, I would have accepted this price. But now, I'm sorry, I need a 20% premium."

When Li Yuan said this, Chen Jie was stunned.

When did Li Yuan become so easy to talk to?
