Deliberate disclosure

“Damn, that rich second-generation really went all out,” the reporter exclaimed.

Chen Xiao said, “Actually, it’s nothing. The transaction amount looks huge, but if you play with it for two years and then sell it, you might even make money.”

“Just think, controlling such a large film and television group, how many female celebrities would that playboy ruin?”

The reporter seemed to have opened the door to a new world. “Damn, damn! Teng Xiao Capital might have big news in the future!”

“Brother, let’s exchange contact information. If you have any news in the future, tell us; it’ll be compensated.”

“Right, right, just us few people, don’t tell anyone else.”

Chen Xiao showed a difficult expression. “Our website wants to do exclusives, and you guys…”

Someone next to him persuaded, “How much money can an exclusive make? The fee our brothers give you is more than double what you’d get from an exclusive.”

Chen Xiao pretended to consider for a moment. “Alright then, but you guys really can’t spread it around.”

“Don’t worry.”

Immediately after, an internal news QQ group was formed.

The press conference for Teng Xiao Capital finally began.

Su Tang walked onto the podium, scanned the reporters below, paused slightly in the middle, and then quickly returned to normal.

“Dear reporters, I am Su Tang, General Manager of Teng Xiao Capital. Regarding our company’s acquisition of Dayang Group, I will provide a unified explanation here. Please raise your hand if you have questions.”

As soon as she finished speaking, almost all the reporters raised their hands.

Su Tang pointed to a reporter near her and said, “This lady.”

Then, a staff member handed over the microphone.

The reporter asked, “Manager Su, is Teng Xiao Capital acquiring Dayang Group because it wants to enter the film and television industry?”

Su Tang smiled slightly and said, “Our company does not intend to enter the film and television industry. Currently, we still focus on our main business.”

The reporter pressed on, “Then why is your company acquiring this film and television group?”

Su Tang said, “It’s due to a personal reason of our Chairman, who needs to use Dayang Group to help a few friends. The specific matters… are too private, involving our Chairman’s private life, so it’s inconvenient to disclose.”

Chen Xiao secretly gave a thumbs up.

This statement was already a very clear hint.

Private life, private, helping friends.

Unless one was a fool, they should be able to understand that the Chairman wanted to promote his women.

There was a flurry of typing sounds in the venue as reporters quickly recorded the relevant information.

The microphone was then passed to the second person to ask a question.

“What are Teng Xiao Capital’s plans for the future operations of Dayang Group?”

Su Tang said, “Currently, we are only the third-ranked shareholder and cannot significantly influence the company’s operational decisions. If we control more shares in the future, we may adjust our strategy according to our preferences.”

“Whoa—!”

Damn, adjust the strategy according to preferences?

This was playing around.

Another person asked, “Manager Su, if your company is able to influence Dayang Group’s decisions in the future, which aspect of the business will you focus on more?”

Su Tang thought for a moment and said, “Perhaps movies, after all, this is more in line with our Chairman’s original intention.”

Everyone: “…”

These questions had basically exposed Teng Xiao Capital’s intentions.

Next, reporters asked many more questions, mostly indirectly, to inquire about Teng Xiao Capital’s attitude towards Dayang Group from multiple angles.

Su Tang, adhering to Chen Xiao’s philosophy, completely solidified the impression she gave these reporters.

The reporters around Chen Xiao kept praising him in the group.

“Damn, brother, our Second Aunt is amazing. She really heard Teng Xiao Capital’s core secret.”

“Brother, tell Second Aunt to work hard! Brothers are waiting for your news!”

Chen Xiao: “No problem, I’ll go find my Second Aunt when I get back.”

These reporters, combining Chen Xiao’s ‘Second Aunt’ and Su Tang’s answers, had completely confirmed Teng Xiao Capital’s intentions. After the meeting, they rushed back to write their articles.

Chen Xiao also followed the crowd out of the venue, then used the opportunity to go to the restroom and returned to the Chairman’s office…

Less than half an hour later, related news was released.

Chen Xiao couldn’t help but laugh as he looked at the news; these people’s imaginations were truly strong.

From a vague press conference, they had implicitly portrayed Teng Xiao Capital’s Chairman as a playboy who manipulated the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry and was excessively lustful.

The future of Dayang Group looked bleak.

The more shares Teng Xiao Capital bought, the less market confidence there was.

Dayang Group’s stock price accelerated its decline again, with the cumulative total decline exceeding 50%.

Of course, some people familiar with Chen Xiao felt differently when they saw this news.

First was Yan Yanyan. She was surprised that Chen Xiao had bought so many shares of Dayang Group and wanted to follow suit, but all the funds she could raise in a short time had been used to buy Jinning Pharmaceutical shares.

Yan Bingqin, however, was different. She had been removed from most of her directorships by Yan Zhiyuan and was now fully selling her shares in Atlantic Capital Group.

So she had ample cash.

Seeing Chen Xiao’s operation, she thought for a moment and then followed suit, buying in.

Tang Shaofei, Zhang Meng, and Xiong Chao called Chen Xiao after hearing about it, also wanting to follow suit.

Chen Xiao had no objection to this; since it was publicly announced, the news could not be concealed.

He only reminded them that he was not optimistic about Dayang Group’s future stock price but had other considerations.

With this said, each of the three only bought a few hundred to tens of millions, treating it as just for fun.

On Yan Bingqin’s side, she was determined to trust Chen Xiao and bought heavily while the trading volume was active.

Chen Xiao was indifferent to this; anyway, her funds were limited, and the more she invested in Dayang Group, the less she would have for future real estate company establishment.

The hidden information still consisted of some small market trends recently, so one trading group could handle it, and the other two groups took turns on vacation.

Chen Xiao leaned back in the spacious office armchair, eating the rich fruit platter cut by Dong Xuewen. The room temperature was a constant 26 degrees, and the scenery outside Qian Lake was still beautiful.

Thinking of the students welcoming new arrivals under the scorching sun, he couldn’t help but shake his head.

“Tsk tsk… too damn miserable…”

…

On the other side, Xing Yanqing was on the phone with Sun Ying.

“Anyway, this operation is special; I can’t say much.”

Sun Ying probed, “Isn’t it just stocks and futures? What’s so special about normal buying and selling?”

Xing Yanqing said, “Yingying, you are still too young. With normal buying and selling, who can guarantee profit? You need some extraordinary means.”

Sun Ying frowned. Extraordinary means? Had he finally decided to act again?

She was struggling internally, wondering whether to make one last effort for her deceased best friend.

After three years of effort, this was the closest she had come to the truth.

After a moment of hesitation, she said, “Is it that amazing? Can I come and see?”

Xing Yanqing’s lips curled slightly. After learning that Sun Ying was inquiring about the Jinning Pharmaceutical girl who fell from the building, he deliberately revealed some related information, just to lure her in.
