There is no term as "short hedging". They are hedging their large holding by shorting call options which will place a fixed bottom on their holding and if the price fall below the level they will be able to recover losses from their original holding.
Not the best just a quick read to understand what they are doing: https://www.investopedia.com/university/options/
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Option_(finance)
However, a good textbook on that might help better. There is a lot of good books discussing the strategic application of options.
