Chapter 743: Shorting Pharmaceuticals
Chen Yang was very sure, but Lin Tianbao still had some doubts.
The techniques of shorting pharmaceuticals are actually no different from the techniques of shorting gold that we usually talk about.
Even the techniques used in short selling stocks are similar.
Lin Tianbao is a top student at Jiaotong University. Although he is not a professional finance major, one should never underestimate college students of this era.
If we talk about opening their eyes to the world, they are the first group of people.
"Boss, these Jews have very strong capital flows,"
"If they are determined to take up all the drugs on the Shanghai market, we..."
Chen Yang waved his hand to interrupt Lin Tianbao's words: "Dabao, no matter what the game is, the purpose is the same, but the methods are similar."
"These Jews come and go only a few times."
"They hoarded goods, drove up prices, and then used public opinion to create panic, devaluing the efficacy of the drug, and even saying that the drug was not suitable for long-term storage, thus gradually reducing the value of the drug."
"The next step is to buy up the drugs that have been sold and make a profit from the difference."
"What we have to do is to raise the price when they are buying up goods later."
"At that time, if they don't accept it, then it will be a bargain for us. If they insist on buying with us."
"I guarantee that they will sweep up more and more goods on the market."
“By this time, let alone cash flow, they can’t afford the compensation even if you ask them to sell all their assets.”
Lin Tianbao suddenly realized: "Boss, awesome..."
"So what am I going to do now?"
Chen Yang stood up, patted his shoulder and said, "Of course you are waiting inside the trading company for those Jews to give you gifts."
"Dabao, don't agree to others easily. You have to learn how to accept gifts. The more gifts you accept, the more people will believe that there is nothing wrong with it."
"Okay, you go back first. I think the Jews will focus on Xiaotong Bridge next."
"If they want to control all drug sales, they must solve the drug supply and marketing problem from the source."
Lin Tianbao nodded, said hello politely, and left the office.
Chen Yang sat on the chair, tapping the table with his right hand, thinking about how to scrape a large piece of meat off the Jews.
The sales of medicines in Shanghai are both bright and dark.
The obvious one is Sunshine Trading Company, and all the medicines are from Europe.
The retail price is over $100 a bottle, and the wholesale price is $11,000 a box.
The prices of goods there are much lower than those at Xiaotongqiao, but they don’t sell as well as those at Xiaotongqiao.
Xiaotongqiao operates on the black market, and the way it sells supplies is different from ordinary retail. The current price of Xiaotongqiao penicillin is 17,000 US dollars.
One is priced at 11,000 and the other is priced at 17,000. Logically, everyone knows how to choose, but the one priced at 17,000 sells for more than the one priced at 11,000.
There is only one reason, the 17,000 yuan for Xiaotongqiao has a rebate.
The market price is 17,000, and the rebate is 20 points, which is 3,400 US dollars.
The officials coming from the mountain city to purchase would not be interested in the goods of Sunshine Trading Company at all.
When they come to Shanghai, they go directly to Xiaotong Bridge.
Just kidding, the rebate for ten boxes of penicillin is more than 30,000 US dollars, which is equivalent to 100,000 oceans.
The money used for the purchase is public money, but the rebate goes into your own pocket. In this kind of situation, everyone knows what to choose.
It is also because of this that penicillin, which has a factory price of less than 260 yen, can be sold for nearly 200 US dollars on the market.
It can be said that Xiaotongqiao is operating penicillin as a financial product.
The value ascribed to it far exceeds the value of the goods themselves.
Now the Jews have discovered that penicillin can not only be used to save lives.
It can also be used like financial products to reap the assets of the Chinese people.
It’s a pity that they really don’t know that the Shanghai Stock Exchange belongs to the surname Chen.
Lucky Trading Company.
This store, located in the central area of Hongkou District, used to be the best directly-operated store of Osaka Trading Company.
The supplies sold there are very complete. Moreover, this place has a good market and is close to the warehouse, so the business is very booming.
When the Osaka Chamber of Commerce withdrew from the Shanghai stock market, it disposed of these stores and warehouses.
The two storefronts and a 2,000-square-meter warehouse that Chen Yang had originally been aiming for were snatched away by the Nanyang Overseas Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, this Nanyang Overseas Chinese Chamber of Commerce is just an official name.
This Chamber of Commerce has always been in Nanyang. As an employed employee of the Chamber of Commerce, Tang Xin used the Chamber of Commerce as a cover to take over these two shops and warehouses.
It was simply to help the Red Party sell some of the supplies they seized on the battlefield.
For example, cigarettes, canned food, oil, cotton clothes, cloth, etc.
These civilian supplies are not enough to maintain the expenses of such a large business.
Therefore, the real profitable business of this company is military supplies such as rare minerals and oil.
Of course, this kind of supplies will not be sold openly.
The owner of the shop is Tang Xin, and the other one is Lu Zongde.
He was originally the propaganda officer of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Sub-district. However, his ancestors were also businessmen, so he was quite familiar with the processes of these material businesses.
Tang Xin is a woman who has been showing her face in the Shanghai Stock Exchange. If she encounters some gangsters who dare to cause trouble, she will always suffer.
Therefore, the organization specially assigned her a partner.
Moreover, Comrade Lao Lu is familiar with the military sub-district, and it is easier to communicate with him regarding the transportation of supplies.
In this way, a man and a woman, with five large yellow croakers saved by the organization through frugality, settled down in the Shanghai Stock Exchange and started their business journey.
Beep, beep, beep. A horn sounded outside.
Old Lu leaned his head over the counter and took a look. It was the car of Mr. Lin, the boss of Sunshine Trading Company.
If it were someone else, Mr. Lu might not have had such a deep impression, but on the day of the store's opening, this Mr. Lin sent both a flower basket and gifts.
If people didn't know that he was married to Miss Minglan from the Ming family in Shanghai, they would have thought that he was here to pursue Tang Xin.
"Hey, Shopkeeper Lu, I'm going to make a fortune." Lin Tianbao walked into the store and greeted him politely.
Old Lu quickly came out from the counter and bowed, "Boss Lin, no, no, it's just a small business."
"Boss Lin is here today?"
"Boss Tang isn't here?" Lin Tianbao said with a smile, "Boss Tang asked me to get her something."
"Well, I got it and brought it to her personally."
"The stuff is in the trunk of the car. Please ask Manager Lu to ask a few people to move it."
Things? Could it be? Old Lu's expression was startled. He quickly called several shop assistants over.
Several people walked to the back of the car and opened the trunk, which contained three cardboard boxes that were almost as high as their calves.
Old Lu said seriously: "Move the things to the warehouse in the back."
