On April 25, the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) held the “One Day at the SSE”, a public activity involving micro-blog fans of the SSE, inviting investors and reporters to jointly beat the opening and closing gongs for that day’s trading. It was the first time the gong was beaten by general investors since the establishment of the SSE.
Yesterday, the “One Day at the SSE” activity was successfully held by the SSE. General investors and reporters attending the activity together beat the opening and closing gongs for yesterday’s trading, which was the first time since the SSE’s establishment. During the activity, investors and reporters sent altogether 186 image-text micro-blogs and webcast the whole process.
“We can feel by our hearts the SSE’s sincerity and its work transparency through this activity,” a micro-blog fan called “kingshirley” spoke highly of it.
As a pioneer organizing micro-blog fans activity in securities industry, the SSE selected two items, namely, the information disclosure and supervision of listed companies and the market supervision, both winning the most attention through a public vote on the official micro-blog “SSE Release”, to be fully opened to the visitors. Micro-blog fans and reporters participated in all activities concerning listed companies’ supervision, such as morning news monitoring, regulation revision meeting, review on merger, acquisition and reorganization plan, and disciplinary meeting, viewed the supervisory talk with illegal listed company and the process of examining and verifying temporary announcements, and listened to the briefing of the after-action check on annual reports and the handling of complains via letters and visits. Meanwhile, they watched the investigation and handling of abnormal trading occurring in the market supervision, and heard the introduction of different procedures (real-time supervision, audit and investigation, and former businesses analysis) of market supervision. The activity provided the fans and reporters with a rare opportunity to visit the real-time supervision room which is not open even for the SSE staff.
The SSE also set a surprising part for the activity -- inviting micro-blog fans and reporters to strike the opening and closing gongs for April 25’s trading. It was the first time the gong was stroke by general investors ever since its establishment in 1990. “It’s really surprising and exciting to beat the gong as an ordinary investor,” said a micro-blog fan named “Brother Cheng – go straight along right path” and hoped that he could strike the gong again as a board chairman when his company is listed on the market.
In this full-day activity, the SSE also organized micro-blog fans and reporters to tour around the trading floor and the showroom, and offered them the opportunity to communicate with the senior management from Guanghui Energy Co., Ltd. who were preparing for a performance briefing at the trading floor. Ni Juan, Secretary to Directorate of Guanghui Energy, said that it’s a real surprise to see so many investors and reporters in the trading hall. The activity is of great significance to improve the SSE’s work transparency and response to the public concern. It is hoped that more investors would have a close contact with the SSE. Moreover, micro-blog fans and reporters also watched the SSE’s introduction video, enjoyed some dumplings at its canteen, and participated in the symposium for interaction and Q&A.
Earlier this year, SSE Governor Gui Minjie required that improving transparency should be regarded as one of the fundamental construction objectives of the SSE and must be preserved as an important and regular practice. An official of the SSE said that this activity was only a start. The SSE will, with official micro-blog “SSE Release” as its carrier, continue to innovate thinking and explore various and extensive interactive activities with investors. The SSE will earnestly listen to all market opinions, intensify its efforts on promoting work transparency, and join hands with investors and the market to push forward the capital market toward a better development.
