The 71-year-old Gong, named Gong Juxiang, is a farmer in Taihu County, Anhui Province, west of the township. 1990 July, she followed her partner to Hefei City. The old man is an honest farmer, in addition to farming has no other skills, to the city, he can only collect rags, picking garbage. Gong, on the other hand, shines shoes on the streets. If you want to position her life, anyone would be able to pinpoint this old woman from the countryside: she will continue to shine like this until she can't shine any more.
One day in June 1996, a young man came to Grandma Gong's stall to polish her shoes, and threw her 10 yuan afterward. Grandma Gong from the greasy pockets of the coat took out 9 yuan ready to find him, but he was too dirty not willing to take, get up to go. Grandma Gong was surprised: 9 yuan do not want? This young man is too rich! She was busy asking what the guy is doing, so rich. The young man replied: I bought the Sichuan Changhong, tripled, earned 17 million. Grandma Gong's eyes widened! She knew that Sichuan Changhong was sold in the mall. So, she immediately ran to the mall to see the Sichuan Changhong color TV, but when she asked the salesman why the Sichuan Changhong color TV can be doubled, the salesman but asked three, but also turned around and muttered: this countryside old woman is not a problem in the brain. ......
A few days later, Gong ran into the young man again and told him about the taunting she received at the mall. The young man laughed so hard that he couldn't stand up straight and said, "I'm talking about Sichuan Changhong, the stock, not the TV! Then, the young man patiently explained to her half a day what is the stock, but she could not understand, or puzzled to ask: since it is to buy things, why did not bring home anything, you said to buy it? This is not to deceive people? The young man saw how to say that she did not understand, only to say: you go to the stock exchange to see, you will understand.
In the young man's guidance, Gong came to the neighborhood of the Yangtze River Middle Galaxy Stock Exchange, only to see here crowded, noisy, more lively than the market. Grandma Gong casually asked a few people, they are very excited, I can hear, is the meaning of making a lot of money. She thought:Since the stock this thing so profitable, and is the country engaged in, if I can figure out, not also can sit and make a lot of money?
From then on, Grandma Gong paid attention to the people who came to shine shoes and often asked them about stocks. Seeing the shoeshine countryside old woman also want to speculate on stocks, they laugh: you this shoeshine role, but also want to speculate on the stock market? I'm not sure if you're a good person, but I'm a good person.
However, Grandma Gong didn't think she was meant to be a shoe-shiner. In order to understand the stock, she decided to move the shoe stall to the entrance of the Galaxy Stock Exchange. However, as soon as she landed on her feet, the original shoe-shiners came over, and one of them, a middle-aged woman, kicked her feet up and knocked over her stall. Although she was nearly 60 years old, she struggled with the middle-aged woman without fear. As a result, although Grandma Gong was bruised and swollen, the middle-aged woman also had a handful of her hair torn off. After this fierce battle, Mrs. Gong finally won a piece of land in front of the Exchange. Since then, when business was slow, she ran to the exchange hall, and gradually, she not only understood the meaning of the stock, read the market, read the K charts, and even a little bit of computer operation.
Grandma Gong has been frugal all her life, because she is not in love with her partner, always bumping into each other, so she hid from her partner and saved more than 60,000 yuan of private money. Now, she decided to use this money to buy stocks. in November 1996, she secretly ran to the exchange to open an account, and then in the guidance of a master to spend 5,000 yuan to buy 40 on the diesel shares. All this, not only her partner does not know, her two sons do not know, even every day with her in front of the exchange together with the colleagues polishing shoes do not know.
As if to confirm that she is not a stock speculator, the stock began to fall soon after she bought Shangchai shares. Seeing that she was losing half a month's worth of shoe-shining money in a single day, she couldn't sit still any longer and kept running to the trading floor. Once, she was polishing shoes, suddenly heard someone in the hall yelling: up! Up! She threw down her shoe brush and rushed to the hall, only to find that it was someone else's stock that had risen, while her shares of Shangchai remained unchanged.
Gong's abnormality finally attracted the attention of her colleagues, who were surprised and asked: "You're a shoe-shine old lady, shine your shoes on the end, other people's stocks and what do you have to do with it? Gong grandmother but a cry, said: finished! It's over! I've been doing this for months for nothing! It was then that everyone realized that this ragged, nearly 60-year-old shoe-shine Gong was actually speculating in the stock market! Now, the coworkers were so happy that they said, "You're a shoe shiner, how can you speculate in stocks? Shoeshine is shoeshine, do not get the wrong role yo! Grandma Gong was annoyed and said: Why should I be the role of shoe shine? I don't want to sniff other people's feet all day and make a few bucks! I want to make a lot of money! Colleagues heard, they all laughed and hurt their stomachs.
The old lady was spurned by the whole family when she was alone
Shortly after, Shangchai's shares suddenly took off, and the company was soaring continuously, and the old lady turned a loss into a profit, with 2,000 yuan more on the books. She was happy, proudly said to colleagues:Who said I was the role of shoe shine? I speculate in stocks so well, is the role of speculation! Colleagues are still unconvinced, sarcastic: Do not be too happy too early, there is a time for you to cry! We have seen a lot here, many professors to speculate in the stock market have lost a lot of money, see how many days you can be happy? Grandma Gong said: I don't want to talk to you people who don't have any knowledge! When I earn a thousand million, see if you still dare to say that I am a shoe shiner!
Grandma Gong ignored them and bought all of her remaining 58,000 yuan of personal money, including Wanneng shares, Dongfang Electronics and Shenzhen Development. It was a bull market at the time, and all the stocks she bought rose by varying degrees. In less than five months, she earned more than 30,000 yuan. Now, her coworkers didn't dare to easily say that she was a shoeshine character.
Gong even felt that the opportunity to get rich had come, and she wanted to buy more stocks, but she had no more money on hand. She knew that her partner had at least 30,000 to 50,000 yuan in his hand, so she wanted to mobilize him to buy as well. That day, back home, she exaggerated to her partner said: I every day in front of the exchange shoes, see a lot of people speculating in the stock market made a fortune! Father Gong but disdainfully said: others earn mountains of gold and silver I do not red, I do not have that ability, that is not what I do. Grandma Gong asked rhetorically: Why can't we do what others do? Father Gong mouth, said: you do or I do? I am a rag collector, you a shoe shine. I am that role, or you are that role?
Seeing that her partner could not make sense of it, Mrs. Gong thought of her two sons in business: her eldest son opened a food store, and her youngest son opened a building materials store, and they still had a few dollars in their hands. So Gong ran to the eldest son there, politely said to him the meaning of this, but the eldest son said unquestionably: I get up early every morning and work hard to earn a few living money, if you buy the stock fell how to do? Other people make money is other people's fortune, I'm just an open food store! He said nothing to buy.
Grandma Gong and ran to her youngest son to mobilize, the youngest son listened to some of the heart. However, when he ran to the stock exchange and saw that some stocks were falling, he got scared and said, "This thing is too complicated! Forget it, I'd rather do my building materials business. He didn't buy either. Grandma Gong was very annoyed, she thought: this good opportunity, the old man and two sons do not take advantage of, what a pity! Hmph, these dead brains! Have to think of a way to monetize them ......
This day, Grandma Gong's eldest son came to see the two old. Grandma Gong complained to him, "I've been feeling a lot of pain in my back lately, and sometimes I can't even stand up. Hearing this, the oldest son said anxiously, "Then go to the hospital and have a look! Grandma Gong said: I went to see the doctor said that a course of treatment down to more than 1,000 yuan which! How can I afford that? The next day, the eldest son sent 2,000 yuan. As soon as the money arrived, Grandma Gong immediately went to buy stocks.
After a few more days, her youngest son came to see her. She did the same thing, but her younger son was more generous than her older son and gave her 5,000 yuan at once. She went right back to buying stocks. Then, she constantly complained of suffering, today said how tired every day shoeshine, tomorrow said can not do, the two sons are very heartbroken sick mother, both advised her not to do, one after another to give her another 4000 yuan. The company's main business is the purchase of stocks and shares, which is a good idea.
Gong was lucky that all the stocks she bought went up. But she also wanted more money to speculate in the stock market, but it is not good to scream again. So she had a plan. When she saw her youngest son again, he lied that he knew a building materials factory manager, you can directly hit the goods, cheaper than the market price of 15 points. The youngest son was moved, gave 20,000 yuan to let her beat the goods. As soon as she turned around, she went to the exchange and bought the stock. She intends to make a profit and then pick it up with her youngest son, who will naturally go for it when he gets a taste of the sweetness.
However, in May 1997, a large wave of adjustments hit the market just as Mrs. Gong was getting ready to show her skills in the stock market. She could not bear to cut meat, of course, could not give the youngest son bargain. The youngest son saw the past two months or no goods to, urged several times, but she always blinking. The youngest son is very puzzled, but also very angry, his small store was less liquidity, this time his business almost can not do.
At this juncture, Grandma Gong's secret of buying stocks was discovered by Daddy Gong. On this day, Daddy Gong pulling a rag collector's car, passing opposite the Galaxy Stock Exchange on Cheung Kong Middle Road, he saw a lot of people gathered around his partner's stall talking about it. Father Gong thought that others in the old man and his partner, rushed to the past, but found that his partner was actually in the stock market with others on the scriptures! Father Gong's head a big: No wonder my partner always want money recently, it turns out she is in the stock market wow! He went forward and pulled Gong granny, snapped: you a shoe-shine old woman, do not know anything, how do you also mix with this stuff? Colleagues finally found a chance to retaliate, adding fuel to the fire by teasing: your mother-in-law can do very well, like an expert! Father Gong listened to the more angry, the public one by one counted all the bad deeds of the old lady, and asked her to immediately cheat the two sons of the money spit out. Said to the excitement, Gong father tears: two sons easy? Doing small business to support the family. You are good, a take is tens of thousands of dollars! Hardly a toad wants to eat swan meat! You're just a shoe shiner, aren't you?
She has become a multi-millionaire woman
The two sons naturally found out about Grandma Gong's stock speculation. Worse still, the two daughters-in-law also know, which blew the pot. one day in July 1997, Father Gong with his eldest son, eldest daughter-in-law, youngest son, youngest daughter-in-law, plus a small granddaughter, came to the Yangtze River Road in front of the Galaxy Stock Exchange, forcing the mother-in-law to sell the stock immediately, but also the youngest son's money, so that his small store to open on. However, no matter what they say, Gong is not selling stocks, not money, but also said with a big grin: not just a few tens of thousands of dollars? I'll double it back to you," she said.
This scene caused a lot of curiosity among the passers-by, who gathered around to watch and then talked about it. Some people said: "It's impossible, isn't it? At such an old age, it's good to be able to polish shoes well. Can't read a few words, how is the role of stock speculation? You're not a senile old man, are you? Mrs. Gong immediately replied: I'm not a stock trader, are you? When I'm making money, one day is worth a year to you! Seeing the stubbornness of Grandma Gong, everyone advised her to sell her stocks and pay back her son's money. However, she just said, "I don't want money, but I want a life! The youngest son was so enraged that he couldn't stand it any longer and threw her to the ground. Grandma Gong cried out in grief, pulling her youngest son's legs and shouting: Black hearted, rotten livered son! I raised you not worth 20,000 yuan? I'll die by your hand today! Hit me! Go ahead! The onlookers chided the younger son in turn. As a result, the youngest son and his party were defeated in front of his stubborn old mother and returned empty-handed. ......
Three months later, in October 1997, the stock market had a strong rebound, and Grandma Gong seized the opportunity to sell her stocks and make a profit. She paid back her youngest son 25,000 yuan with interest and gave her oldest son 5,000 yuan. However, the two sons did not take an interest in stock speculation as she had hoped, or said: stock speculation is not something you do, you are not the role! You're not the role! You'd better settle down and polish shoes! Or just don't even polish shoes, we can afford you!
Grandma Gong couldn't talk to her two sons and was never willing to talk to them again. Later, she simply closed the shoeshine stand, single-mindedly speculating in the stock market. Her two years in the stock market, gradually developed a skill, in the subsequent stock market box finishing period, she not only did not lose money, but earned 40,000 yuan. Then, in 1999, 5-19 after the bull market, she held the stock doubled one after another; and in March 2001, the eve of the arrival of the bear market, she turned around magnificently, light position to wait, at this time she pocketed the silver has amounted to 1.24 million yuan! Since then, in the nearly 5 years of the long bear market, she calmly responded to the battle, and constantly low to absorb the investment value of the stock!
In June 2005, the stock market gradually rebounded, and in the following two years, China's securities market ushered in the third round of the super bull market. The stocks held by Grandma Gong, such as G Tianwei, Ginza, Dashang and Suning, all rose more than 10 times! By November 2007, Grandma Gong had sold most of her stocks and had become a wealthy woman with ten million dollars. At the same time, her two sons are still operating that small business miserably, living a life of no improvement every day and continuing their unchanging roles.
January 2008, Grandma Gong in Hefei City, Yangtze River East Road, Saina Spring Garden, bought two sets of four-bedroom commercial housing, but also bought two BMW sedan, plus cash of 1 million yuan, and sent to the two sons, so that the two sons were ashamed of themselves. Father Gong for the first time into such a luxurious and spacious new home, the old partner admired to the ground.
And now, in the face of the stock market's adjustment trend, Grandma Gong has a good grasp of the situation, hired a securities analyst with high salaries, accept his advice to adjust investment strategy in a timely manner. This period of time, although there are losses, but in general there are still some gains. Every day, she went in and out of the second floor of the Galaxy Stock Exchange in the middle of the Yangtze River, the big room, when she slowly downstairs, downstairs, the retail investors often cast adoring glances at her. For many people who do not know her, they simply do not dare to imagine, this elegant noblewoman, in the past is actually the exchange door shoe-shining countryside old woman! And at this time, those of her colleagues are still in front of the door polishing shoes, talk about Granny Gong, they seem to be talking about a distant myth ......
