Chapter 361: Big reversal, ice and fire!
In the blink of an eye, five days have passed since the spontaneous combustion of the Infinite X7.
The spontaneous combustion of three Infinite X7s triggered a major earthquake in the industry. Five days later, the entire new energy industry was affected and no one was spared, especially those well-known brands that suffered heavy losses.
The first to be hit was naturally Infinity Auto, whose stock price continued to fall. Now its total market value is only 65% of the previous level, almost half of it.
Others such as Times Electric, Dizi Auto, Dapeng, Dream, Xiaokang, etc., also fell by 20% or even 30%, but none of them were as miserable as Infinite Auto.
Qin Han was not idle either. Under his instructions, Li Baobao, Su Wanru and Feng Qianhua took action at the same time and each arranged people to build positions in these leading new energy companies.
Among them, unlimited cars are the focus.
According to statistics, the cumulative amount of Infinite Auto's circulating shares absorbed has reached 15.87%, plus the 15% that Qin Han obtained from Sun Zhiqiang and Li Guohua, the total amount of Infinite Auto shares held by Qin Han now has reached 30.87%!
It can be said that Qin Han is now the big boss of Infinity Auto!
According to Su Wanru's investigation,
There are seven major shareholders of Infinity Auto, the largest of which is Sun Zhiqiang, whose shares in Infinity Auto have dropped from 7% to 30%.
Qin Han now holds more shares than him. The first step has been completed. The second step is to wait for this public opinion incident to be over, force Sun Zhiqiang to give up the position of chairman, and obtain the operating rights of Infinite Automobile.
This is not urgent.
As for companies such as Times Electric, Dizi Automobile, Dapeng, Dream, and Xiaokang, Qin Han currently holds a lot of shares.
The largest among them is Times Electric. There is no way around it, since it is the leader in new energy batteries.
Now that we have the opportunity to buy at the bottom, we certainly can’t miss it.
Qin Han now holds 9% of Times Electric's outstanding shares, but due to the huge size of Times Electric, it is a bit difficult to complete the controlling stake in it, so Qin Han made another preparation.
——High technology.
This is also a new energy battery manufacturer. Although its market share is not as high as that of Times Power, it still ranks eighth in the world.
Affected by the spontaneous combustion of Infinite X7, Gaoke's market value has now fallen by more than %. The key is that compared with Times Electric, this company is much smaller in size, only about one-third of Times Computer.
After analysis by the think tank led by Su Wanru, it was found that controlling Gaoke would be much easier than controlling Times Computer, and the success rate would be doubled.
Therefore, following the advice of the think tank, Qin Han ordered everyone to make every effort to absorb Gaoke's outstanding shares.
until today,
Qin Han already holds 30% of Gaoke's circulating shares!
Since the accounts are scattered and not centralized, there is no need to disclose them to the public, nor to notify the Securities and Futures Commission or the High-Tech Development Bureau. When Qin Han feels the need to disclose them, he can disclose them to the public.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, two days have passed and it is Monday.
On Monday morning, when the sky was just beginning to turn pale, the entrance of the National New Energy Vehicle Quality Monitoring Center was already surrounded by crowds of people.
The spontaneous combustion of the Infinite X7 caused such a huge public outcry that the authorities naturally could not sit still.
On Saturday, the official announced that a press conference would be held on Monday to make an investigation report on the Infinitus X7 spontaneous combustion incident.
Therefore, reporters from various media came early in the morning.
They held cameras and microphones, ready for battle as if facing a powerful enemy.
The press conference was officially held at 9 o'clock in the morning.
When the test report slowly appeared on the big screen, this extremely shocking report was like a nuclear bomb, instantly detonating on the Internet, stirring up a thousand waves and quickly sweeping the entire Internet.

In the traditional media field, many TV stations also quickly followed up with reports.
In the news broadcast room of a well-known financial channel,
The host reported in a serious tone: "Recently, there has been a major reversal in the spontaneous combustion incident of Infinite Automobile. The report released by the National New Energy Automobile Quality Monitoring Center shows that the three spontaneous combustion accidents were not caused by quality problems of the automobile itself..."
Subsequently,
The camera switched to the expert interview session, where an industry expert analyzed: "This incident not only sounded the alarm for consumers, but also posed new challenges to the entire new energy vehicle industry chain. Issues such as the quality of charging piles and the safety of the charging environment need to be taken seriously by all parties."
The big V "veteran in the car circle" who first posted the video of the spontaneous combustion was like an ant on hot pan at this moment, and he was so anxious that he deleted the post overnight.
Not long after, a video of him kneeling down to apologize appeared on his social account.
In the video, he looked haggard and full of regret, and cried, "I sincerely apologize to Infinity Auto! I shouldn't have released a false video without verifying the truth, which caused great harm to Infinity Auto."
In the background of the video, one can faintly hear his wife's angry shouts, adding a bit of absurdity to the farce.
As the truth came to light,
Netizens not only supported Infinity Auto online, but also took practical actions.
The 4S stores of Wuxian Auto across the country were like being injected with a shot of adrenaline. For a moment, there were crowds of people and it was bustling with activity, which was a complete change from the situation of being deserted and no one was interested in the previous two days.
Outside the store, there was a long line of vehicles, and many consumers, even their entire family, came to check out the store with great anticipation.
As soon as you step into the 4S store, you are greeted by a warm atmosphere.
Cheerful background music was playing in the store, and the sales staff had enthusiastic smiles on their faces as they moved busily among the crowd.
In the exhibition area,
The brand-new Infiniti X7 sparkles under the spotlight. Its smooth and natural body lines and high-tech interior have attracted the attention of many consumers.
A middle-aged man stroked the car body gently while praising his wife beside him: "Honey, look at this Infiniti X7, the real car is more impressive than the pictures on the Internet. I was misled by the rumors of spontaneous combustion before and almost missed such a good car. Now the truth is out, let's choose it!"
The wife smiled and nodded, her eyes full of approval.
Not far away, a group of young people gathered around another Infinitus X7, discussing excitedly.
"This large central control screen is so cool, and it also has an automatic driving function. It's very impressive to drive out!" said one of the guys wearing a baseball cap.
Another girl with a ponytail added: "The key is to ensure the quality. After this incident, it is even more clear that Infinity Auto is reliable."
"Sales, can I test drive this car? I can't wait to experience it!" The young man in the baseball cap walked quickly towards the salesperson, anticipation gleaming in his eyes.
The salesperson quickly responded: "Of course, sir. Please register for a moment and I will arrange it for you."
The test drive area was also bustling with cars of Infinity X7 entering and exiting in an orderly manner.
An uncle who had just finished a test drive smiled and gave a thumbs up: "This driving feeling is great, the power is full, and the controllability is impeccable. I was worried about the quality before, but now it seems that my worries were completely unfounded."
In the signing area,
The car was also full of people, and many people signed car purchase contracts on the spot.
A young mother said to her friend while filling out a contract: "I have always wanted to buy a car for the convenience of picking up and dropping off my child. This time, Infinity Auto has proven itself, and I believe my choice is not wrong."
The sales staff were busy and sweating, but they were still full of enthusiasm. They not only introduced the various functions of the car models to consumers in detail, but also patiently answered various questions.
The entire 4S store was immersed in a joyful atmosphere, and consumers expressed their support and trust in Infinite Auto with practical actions.
With the convening of this press conference, the capital market was also in turmoil!
Before the stock market opens, the stock exchange is already filled with a tense and excited atmosphere. Traders are in position early, their eyes fixed on the computer screen, their fingers hovering over the keyboard, ready to initiate trading orders at any time.

At 9:30, the stock market opened on time, and the stock code of Infinity Auto was like a lit fuse, instantly detonating the market.
At the moment of opening, buy orders poured in like a tide, and the stock price hit the daily limit. The huge buy order block was like a solid fortress, which discouraged sell orders.
In the trading hall, cheers and exclamations rang out one after another.
"It's up! Infinity Auto really lived up to expectations!"
"Hahahaha, I knew it! I knew it! Hahahahahaha..."
"Today, Infinity Auto will definitely hit the daily limit, so hurry up and open a position!"
"Hurry, hurry, hurry, buy, buy, buy! Buy, buy, buy!"
"All in, all in! Buy all the unlimited cars, and I'll treat the young models at the club tonight!"
Major investment institutions acted quickly and raised the ratings of Infinity Auto.
