After the Divorce, I Could Hear the Voice of the Future-Chapter 110: Exiting with Profits
Monday, Modu Municipal Government issued a cooperation announcement, allocating 200,000 square meters next to Gulf National Forest Park to Tesla for building a megafactory, with a total investment projected at 50 billion.
This action made various car companies realize the country's determination to promote the new energy industry; the decline of fuel vehicles had become an overwhelming trend, unstoppable.
If last week was about the new forces in car manufacturing showing off their prowess, this week saw the established giants flexing their muscle all at once.
SAIC, Beiqi, FAW, an array of multi-billion strategic projects were launched as if money was no object, one after another.
Consequently, the new energy sector went on an unprecedented rally, ten days of consecutive gains, with the index skyrocketing 623 points in just five trading days.
This surge propelled the entire A-shares market; the battle to defend the 3000-point level was successful, and the index once again made a push toward 3100 points.
Retail investors were overjoyed, eagerly spreading the word, "Fellow villagers, come back quickly, the bull has turned around, this time it's for real…"
"2549 points, only 436 points away."
Another Monday,
Lu Liang arrived at the trading room, planning a liquidation.
Although there might have been about four more days of gains, he couldn't and shouldn't wait any longer.
With an account capital reaching 1.12 billion, including BYD and LeEco both recording a 120% increase in share price, he possessed chips worth over 3.5 billion.
To not give up the profits within grasp and execute a high-level cash-out, it was essential to act while the market sentiment was hot and exit swiftly.
"Take advantage of LeTV Group's announcement of LeTV Car's Series B funding plan and first sell off the LeEco stocks in hand."
"The market's trading sentiment is hot right now, so we can be bold when selling LeEco shares."
"Duofu's market action indicates a price surge limit; hold it down, don't let it reach the surge limit and get capped."
"Sell 2000 lots of Yutong Automobile shares, let's test for support below."
"Ganfeng Lithium hit the price limit with a capital inflow of 80 million; sell all our holdings and let them take over."

Lu Liang, wearing a headset and holding a tablet, walked back and forth in the trading room, issuing orders while monitoring the market.
In four hours, he offloaded 380 million chips, among which Ganfeng Lithium and Duofu went from price limit surges to nearly hitting the price drop limit.
The stocks touched the drop limit line during the session, but with the general rise of the new energy sector's overall market, they were forcibly lifted again.
That afternoon, Punan Road made it to the Dragon and Tiger List for net capital outflow, with two stocks recording a net outflow of 74 million.
Only a few people became cautious, most were still immersed in the market's frenetic mood.
After all, the Shanghai Stock Exchange Index had broken through 3100 points, and the new energy index had also surpassed 2600 points.
Lu Liang chose this moment to withdraw, indicating either lack of vision or a normal portfolio adjustment.
Tuesday, another 420 million chips were sold; this day, they didn't make it to the Dragon and Tiger List because the position at 88 Punan Road was not substantial.
Moreover, the remaining nine stocks each had a market capitalization of at least 21 billion, with a daily transaction volume of over 2 billion per stock.
Selling off forty to fifty million in chips could affect the market, but when spread across 24 trading accounts, it left no trace.
The Dragon and Tiger List was actually quite deceptive; whether one wished to make it on the list was entirely up to the institution's will.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be stocks that had a net inflow of several hundred million one day, only to see their share price plummet the next day.
The more Lu Liang learned and experienced the domestic A-share market, the more he felt its unfairness towards retail investors.
Wednesday, another 280 million sold.
Thursday morning, 90 million were sold off, completing the liquidation.
Including BYD, his most favored stock, Lu Liang did not keep a single one, selling off everything.
A pullback was imminent, and the following Monday was also the Mid-Autumn Festival; crossing the festival was also a challenge, a tradition that couldn't be abandoned in Big A.
Lu Liang planned to buy back in at a lower price after the setback, then hold short to medium-term and wait for the next market wave to arrive.
"The account has a balance of 1.17 billion, 636 million invested, and profits of 534 million."
Lu Liang tallied up the gains and seemed quite satisfied, laughing as he turned to ask, "Shouldn't the net value be updated to 1.84?"
The initial net value of private funds is 1, and it's updated once a month on the 25th according to the profits and losses of the previous month.
"Yes, Mr. Lu."
Wen Chao was ecstatic, his palms slightly trembling.
After a one-and-a-half-hour break, the afternoon market reopened, with the new energy index climbing to 2900 points before suddenly plummeting.
In just half an hour, it was like being on a roller coaster.
From an opening gain of 2.2%, rising to 4.5% at midday, down to 1.5% upon the afternoon reopening.
While they were accounting, the new energy index had already turned from red to green, dragging the Big A down below 3100 points with it.
Lu Liang smiled, stroking his chin, "Don't proactively tell them; let them call you, and then you can say."
One hundred million dollars, 84 points earned in a month, would drop quite a few jaws in shock.
Moreover, this victory could prove that his success was not just luck but could be anticipated that the next issue of the private fund would be snatched up in subscriptions.
Wen Chao smiled slightly, keenly aware of what Lu Liang was getting at, nodding his head repeatedly in agreement.
Lu Liang looked towards the trading room, "Apply with Mr. Tang for a 200,000 bonus later; Sun Yutao and Zhang Jing get 50,000 each, and the newcomers 25,000 each. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, help them move to permanent positions."
They had performed quite well; many times, when Lu Liang was away, Sun Yutao and Zhang Jing were able to smoothly execute his plans.
As for the four newcomers, they were mediocre, without any standout performance, but that was what he expected. It was fine as long as they diligently played their roles without having too many ideas.
Stepping out of the trading room, Lu Liang received a call from his sister Lu Ya, "Hello, are you not coming back for the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
"I probably won't, what's up?"
Whether before or after marriage, or even now, Lu Liang didn't like staying at home. His hometown was a city with no nightlife, and after ten at night, the streets were only left with barbecue stalls.
His old friends had all become husbands and fathers; even when they went out, their cell phones would constantly ring.
Especially after midnight, it would pretty much be just him left alone.
"It's nothing much, just that our second aunt is prodding Mom, planning to set you up on a blind date; I heard she's a kindergarten teacher." Lu Ya said, finding joy in his misfortune.
Lu Liang felt a rush of blood to his chest and blurted out without thinking, "Matchmaking, for me?"
Chen Jinchun, who was nearby, looked bemused, choosing to wisely accelerate his pace and keep his distance from Boss Lu, worried about knowing too much.
Lu Ya said, "After all, you're almost 31; do you really plan to stay single forever? They both are really worried about you."
She knew Lu Liang was wealthy and well-known, also good friends with the so-called National Husband that was popular online, so he must have no shortage of young women chasing him.
But since their parents rarely used the internet and didn't understand much, their greatest wish was for their children to settle down and establish families peacefully.
Lu Liang said, "A man is blooming at thirty-one; if you truly cared about me, you'd let Dabao and Erbao spend more time with them when you can. If they get too idle, have them help with the kids; that can give you and your husband a break."
Lu Ya couldn't help but laugh and cry, "Grandkids from outside aren't as dear as one's own grandkids."
Lu Liang was indignant, "All grandkids, where is this inside and outside coming from? That's not a proper thing to say. Don't our parents treat Dabao and Erbao well?"
"That's not what I mean."
"Then what do you mean?"
"Can't be bothered to explain to you."
Lu Liang, with a smile at the corner of his mouth, suddenly changed the subject, "How's the construction of the house back home?"
The last time he was home, he had left fifty thousand for Lu Ya and later transferred another two hundred thousand. It seemed the main structure was already built.
Lu Ya sent a few photos; the workers were busy tiling the walls, along with a very long list of expenses.
After glancing at the balance and noticing it wasn't much, Lu Liang transferred another million over, "I'm about to get busy, sis, let's leave it at that. I won't be back for Mid-Autumn Festival; please convey my message to Mom and Dad."
