137: Different fates in the same city!
In the car.
Alliance Leader Zhang personally drove Wang Lin.
Fang Xiaoyan drove another car, carrying the other three people.
He said with a wide smile, "Although I already knew Brother Junlin wasn't old, I was still surprised when I saw you in person!"
"It's truly correct that heroes emerge from the youth!"
"If you hadn't turned the tide this time, aggressively Reversing the limit down on the limit down board and subsequently driving up the price, boosting morale, we probably wouldn't have known what to do next!"
Wang Lin smiled and shook his head, saying, "Alliance Leader Zhang, what are you talking about? Didn't we agree? If you hadn't been wearing down the short sellers' strength, how could I have managed such an easy rally?"
"Besides, Wangsu Technology's positive news could have caused it to take off after just holding out for two days! Whether I was there or not, the result would have been the same!"
Alliance Leader Zhang looked thoughtfully at Wang Lin and asked, "Really?"
He certainly didn't think so in his heart.
Good news was certainly welcome.
But if the market was truly controlled by those short-selling Institutions, even the best positive news would be futile in the face of the overall environment.
At that time, the overall stock sentiment would be low and lifeless. Even if the positive news was genuinely good, without the right sentiment, few long-side funds would step in to boost the price.
This is why, during a bear market, a stock might have earth-shattering positive news but only rise by one limit before selling off
people simply don't believe it can continue to rise.
Nobody takes the plate, it's that simple.
But now.
Because Wang Lin ignited the long-side sentiment in advance, coupled with the positive news of the cooperation with Amazon, they were able to wipe out the short sellers in one fell swoop, like adding wings to a tiger!
The coordination involved here cannot be explained in just a few words.
This is also why Alliance Leader Zhang so enthusiastically invited Wang Lin to visit Modu.
He genuinely wanted to thank Wang Lin in person.
If this, his first comeback after years of silence, had resulted in him being severely crushed by the Institutions during his first operation...
...he truly wouldn't have the face to show himself in the community.
But now, he had achieved both fame and fortune!
Leisurely driving the car, Alliance Leader Zhang recounted various interesting stories from their journey.
As the saying goes, "dumplings upon departure, noodles upon arrival."
Now that Wang Lin and his party had traveled all the way from Yu Province to Modu, Alliance Leader Zhang prepared to personally host a family banquet for Wang Lin to welcome them and wash away the dust of the journey.
Given their current status and wealth, what top restaurant in Modu couldn't they visit?
But for sincerity and respect, a family banquet was best!
Although it was called a family banquet, Alliance Leader Zhang only personally cooked two of his signature dishes.
The rest of the delicious cuisine was prepared by chefs hired from top restaurants to cook at his home.
This way, both substance and appearance were maintained.
.
Alliance Leader Zhang's house was a luxury river-view mansion near Lujiazui.
In this complex, it was the top-floor duplex "King Unit," valued at around 40 million yuan.
After Wang Lin and the others followed him inside, they realized that Modu truly was a place of luxury and extravagance; it looked extraordinary.
Wang Ran, standing nearby, was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden for the first time.
Everything she saw was new and fascinating.
Fang Xiaoyan knew Wang Ran was Wang Lin's cousin, so she took extra care of her: "Ranran, how do you like it here? If you want to explore, feel free to stay for a few extra days!"
"We don't have much else, but we certainly have plenty of rooms, and my chef cooks excellent, delicious food!"
"If you find it comfortable, tell your brother to buy a few units here. It's very worthwhile, whether for living in or for investment."
Wang Ran was practically drooling as she listened, turning her head to look at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin said exasperatedly, "Alright, you little glutton. I'll buy a few houses here later. Come and visit whenever you want to play."
"Today, let's follow Alliance Leader Zhang's arrangements!"
That evening.
A modest yet luxurious family banquet officially began.
Wang Ran looked at the exquisitely plated dishes and the beautiful view outside the window, truly unable to resist, and immediately started taking photos with her phone.
Then she posted on her Moments: "Went to Modu with my brother, first dinner here, it's incredibly exquisite!"
As expected of food prepared by a five-star chef, it was perfect in color, aroma, and taste, making for excellent photographs.
No matter how Wang Ran photographed it, it looked good.
Leng Nuannuan and Li Yuanyuan also couldn't resist, and they started taking pictures together in that atmosphere.
Wang Lin and Alliance Leader Zhang exchanged a smile.
After taking photos, everyone began to eat and chat. Without the burden of stock market losses, and only the settlement screen of the victor's MVP, everyone was extremely happy, and the atmosphere was lively!
.
The Moments post Wang Ran shared caused a wave of shock in her roommate group chat.
Others might not recognize the location, only feeling that the food in her photos looked very high-end and exquisite.
But Zhou Li, the fashionable girl who lived in Modu, recognized the building opposite that house instantly.
Zhou Li had also returned home during this break, originally planning to treat her palate to the most authentic local cuisine.
But looking at the Moments post, she suddenly felt a pang of envy.
Precisely because she understood, she felt this heartfelt envy: "The angle of that photo must be from the top-floor King Unit of Guoxin Century Seaview, right?"
"Hearing her say she came to Modu to travel with her brother, it was clear that her brother's friends were definitely not nobodies!"
"Living in a top-tier mansion worth over 40 million yuan, their net worth must be calculated in the hundreds of millions!!"
Hundreds of millions!
Even here in Modu, having a net worth of tens of millions makes you a cut above the rest!
Hundreds of millions? That's the ultimate elite.
"Same city, different fates!"
"They'll probably go to Disneyland too, right?"
Zhou Li silently gave the post a like, feeling nothing but envy.
Meanwhile, in another corner of Modu.
Inside Invesco Great Wall Fund Management.
Wang Penghui had already been publicly criticized by his superiors several times in a row.
Today was no different.
After learning that he had unilaterally shorted this year's profits, failed to buy back the chips in time to close the position, resulting in all profits being returned and a large sum of money being lost...
...the company leadership truly couldn't tolerate him anymore!
"Regarding Wangsu Technology, if the profits haven't turned positive by the end of December this year, you can pack your bags and leave!"
"Making decisions without authorization
who gave you that right?!"
"You wanted to short the stock and reap two large portions of profit? How can you be so fanciful?"
"Don't you know the most important principle of a Public Fund? Stability! Be stable!!"
After a fierce scolding, Wang Penghui dejectedly left the leader's office.
The glances from his colleagues around him felt like sharp needles, making him deeply uncomfortable.
However, Alliance Leader Zhang, Wang Lin, and the others were completely unconcerned with the current status of the stock market.
The struggle for chips and the scheming among Institutions had nothing to do with them.
Same city, different fates!
