Chapter 52: Frequent Actions (First Order Request)

"At least we should wait and see for a while." Liang Jinkun continued to persuade.

"Does the boss think that this financial crisis will soon be over? The real estate market will soon pick up and house prices will rise again soon?"

Yang Hai shook his head and said, "I have my own plans. Please help me make an appointment with the other party to see if they have any plans to sell the company as a package, including all the properties that have not been sold, the unfinished development projects, and the reserved land. I will buy them all, including the employees and management of his company."

"In short, I need this company to be operational as soon as possible after I acquire it. The sooner the better!"

"As for the conditions and purchase price, please discuss it with the other party first."

"Also! Are there any other companies like Lean Precision Technology Manufacturing? If there is a suitable one, please help me acquire one."

"If there is no suitable one, please help me find it."

"Okay! Boss!" Liang Jinkun quickly agreed.

"Does the boss have any requirements for the size of the company? How much can the overall acquisition price not exceed?"

"The scale of the enterprise cannot be too small! There are no other specific requirements. It is probably in the field of technology manufacturing and the semiconductor industry! Anyway, it just needs to be similar to the nature of a lean precision technology manufacturing company." Yang Hai said after thinking for a while.

After Liang Jinkun left, Yang Hai called Li Ying again and asked her to inquire about the talents in the smartphone R&D team in Silicon Valley, USA, to see if there are any willing to return to China for development, and to lobby a group of people to return to China for development. He planned to set up a technology company to develop smartphones, computers, operating systems, and semiconductor chip design, and needed talents from all walks of life to join.

Since we are going to set up a precision technology manufacturing company, and our future goal is to acquire Shen Ruobing's Lean Precision Technology Manufacturing Company, the best way is to set up our own technology company to develop technologies such as smart phones, computers, operating systems, and semiconductor chip design to achieve a one-stop R&D and production service.

Originally, Yang Hai was too lazy to start a business. It was so tiring to run a real business! He just wanted to invest and let others work for him and help him make money.

However, Yang Hai was forced into a corner. Not only did he make a bet with Shen's father, but he was also forced by Shen Ruobing to make a bet with her as well.

But Yang Hai thought about it afterwards and felt that no matter how much money you have, it seems a little unsafe if you don’t have a real enterprise to support you.

Only if you have a large physical enterprise, have many employees who depend on you for their livelihood, and create many jobs for society, can your social status be significantly improved.

Otherwise, if you just have money, your social status doesn't seem to be high.

It's like you are a billionaire in the financial industry, who made his billions from stock speculation, and another person who runs a factory with tens of thousands of employees. Who has a higher social status and who is more valued by the relevant departments of the local government?
Everyone knows this without thinking. It must be the entrepreneur who owns the factory with tens of thousands of employees. He has a higher social status and is more valued by the relevant departments of the local government.

No matter how rich you are, you are the only one who is rich. However, if the company under your name has tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands or millions of employees, then these tens of thousands or millions of employees, as well as the families behind them, all depend on you for their livelihood. Only when you make money can these employees make money.

So Yang Hai, who had figured it out, began to realize that it was not enough to just have money, he also needed to have social status.

Establishing an industrial company, developing the real economy, providing more jobs for society and creating social wealth are one of the fastest ways to improve oneself and social status.

So he not only wants to acquire real estate development companies, but also technology manufacturing companies and create technology research and development companies.

In this era when smartphones have just emerged and the first Android phone has not yet been released, it is still not too late to seize this opportunity and develop your own smartphone and smartphone operating system.

It’s okay even if it uses the Android operating system temporarily. There will be plenty of time in the future to develop its own operating system.

With our own smartphones and our own OEM factories, development will naturally be smoother.

However, these are all things for the future, and no one can tell how far they will develop.

But as long as you do it, you may succeed. If you don’t do it, you will never succeed.

On July 7, Lehman Brothers in the United States declared bankruptcy. Two months later, on September 15, the international crude oil futures trading price fell directly below the $9 per barrel mark.

After Yang Hai closed all his positions and completed the delivery, he made a profit of 57 US dollars' difference in the price of each barrel of international crude oil futures, and earned another huge profit of 285 billion US dollars.

As for hedge funds in the United States, countless companies saw their positions liquidated and were forced to declare bankruptcy, suffering heavy losses.

The remaining few powerful investment banks and hedge funds did not fail and continued to inject funds in an attempt to pull the falling international crude oil futures prices back up. Perhaps because of Yang Hai's liquidation, or perhaps because Yang Hai also joined the long team, the international crude oil futures trading prices really soared in the following days.

From less than $89 a barrel, it skyrocketed to $107 a barrel in just a few days, causing the entire international crude oil market to boil. It seemed that the international crude oil futures price would soon rise back to $147 a barrel.

Some long investors cheered and partyed excitedly all night long, refusing to leave for a long time.

However, Yang Hai knew very well that this was just a flash in the pan. He closed his positions without hesitation and started shorting international crude oil futures.

After a brief rebound, the international crude oil futures market began to plunge again. One month later, on October 10, the international crude oil futures trading price fell below the $28 a barrel mark. Yang Hai made a fortune again, with a price difference of up to $60 a barrel, making a profit of $47 billion.

This time, I don’t know how many American investment banks and hedge funds will be forced to close down and go bankrupt, suffering heavy losses.

Yang Hai was very careful in every operation and carried out the operations in batches with multiple accounts. These investment banks and hedge funds could only find that their money was taken away from the accounts of several major Eastern countries, but they had no idea who specifically took the money.

But what they can be sure of is that this is definitely the operation of the same person.

They wanted to fly to the great Eastern country and kill this man, but they couldn't even figure out who they wanted to kill.

They are not even sure whether this is an individual act or the operation of a private equity fund.

If it was just one person, it would be too scary. How much money did this person make from them? According to their incomplete statistics, it was as much as 60 to 70 billion US dollars.

Why did they all lose so much money? But this guy was able to make a fortune. All their money went into Yang Hai's pocket. How could they not be angry?

However, even if they knew about Yang Hai, they could not do anything to him. They could not really fly to the Eastern country and kill Yang Hai.

This is like the Southeast Asian financial crisis back then. Although everyone knew that it was the Quantum Fund and Soros who were responsible, countries were so angry with Soros that they wanted to kill him.

There are even several countries that have listed Soros as an unwelcome person and banned him from entering the country, but they still can't do anything about Soros. It is impossible for them to go to the United States and kill Soros.

In addition to continuing to short U.S. crude oil futures, Yang Hai knew that the international financial crisis was further intensifying, and those investment banks and hedge funds were already powerless to reverse the situation. International crude oil futures prices would continue to fall, so he just had to short firmly and he would not pay attention to anything else.

His focus is on a newly acquired real estate development company.

This real estate company is quite large and can be considered a medium-sized real estate development company. However, due to its blind expansion, it encountered the financial crisis, its capital chain broke, and it had to be sold to Yang Hai at a low price.

After completing the acquisition, the real estate development company was officially renamed Huarong Real Estate Development Co., Ltd.

Yang Hai injected a large amount of capital into this real estate company, and the suspended buildings were restarted. As for those buildings that have been built, they will not be sold for the time being if they cannot be sold. It is impossible to sell them at a low price.

Not only that, Yang Hai also sent a large number of company staff to the land auction markets in large and medium-sized cities across the country, and acquired a large amount of land resources at the starting price.

After the financial crisis broke out in 2008, the real estate market was sluggish and everyone was worried about the future market. Therefore, at land auctions across the country, a large amount of land failed to be sold even at the starting price.

For Huarong Real Estate Development Company, this is undoubtedly the best time to pick up bargains.

Huarong Real Estate Development Company, thanks to Yang Hai's large investment, has no shortage of funds and its strength has increased unprecedentedly.

Not only did they participate in land auctions everywhere and acquire land at low prices, but they also made acquisitions everywhere, taking over some real estate developers that had broken capital chains and were on the verge of bankruptcy.

Many people exclaimed that the strength of Huarong Real Estate Development Company was so amazing and terrifying that its funds seemed to never run out. Huarong Real Estate Development Company could be seen everywhere in land auction markets across the country.

Whether Huarong Real Estate Development Company participates in the land auction determines whether the land auction can proceed smoothly. Huarong Real Estate Development Company has become the biggest guarantee for whether the land can be auctioned off and the transaction is successful.

The newly established Huafeng Precision Technology Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has also frequently acquired and merged several upstream and downstream companies related to precision manufacturing and semiconductors, and integrated them into the Huafeng Group.

With Yang Hai's huge investment, all problems were solved. He acquired a ready-made factory, which had ready-made workers and factory managers. Even the production orders were ready-made, including the supply channels, cooperating customers, and cooperating companies. Everything was ready-made.
