188: Close to the daily limit

The plane accelerated on the runway, the roar of the huge engines deafening. Like a giant steel bird, it broke free from the ground's constraints and soared into the clear blue sky.

During takeoff, my body felt a strong pushback force, and the scenery outside the window gradually shrank. As we ascended, the clouds drifted by like cotton candy.

During the flight, through the porthole, I could see the brilliant sunlight and the vast sea of clouds. Passengers were either resting or enjoying the view.

As the plane gradually descended, the outline of Shashi city became clearer. Finally, it landed smoothly on the destination runway, the sound of braking announcing our arrival.

Since no one had checked baggage, everyone only had a small suitcase, so they wheeled their luggage directly towards the exit.

When they arrived at the exit, they saw many people holding signs waiting outside the fence. Chen Xiangbei's first thought was, 'They can't all be fans, right?'

Sure enough, he heard a gasp, "Look quickly, Chen Xiangbei is out!"

Following this gasp, the surrounding fans, whether standing or sitting, instantly surged forward, continuously shouting words like "Chen Xiangbei!" and "Brother!"

Chen Xiangbei was so embarrassed he felt like he had developed 'awkwardness cancer'! He finally witnessed the charm of the Variety Show City.

Just as they didn't know where to go, a staff member from the program team holding a "Singer" sign walked towards them.

"Mr. Chen Xiangbei, we are the program team's pickup staff. Please follow me, I will take you to the car."

Chen Xiangbei had long wanted to leave, so he followed the staff without a word.

Seeing that Chen Xiangbei was leaving, everyone surrounded him, wanting to get close to their idol, but they were separated by other staff members of the program team.

It seemed they were very experienced, likely staff members stationed here year-round by the station, to prevent close contact with fans from causing injury to artists.

Finally, after a crowded section, they successfully got into the pickup vehicle prepared by the program team. Chen Xiangbei was sweating from the enthusiastic welcome.

As soon as he got into the car, he turned on the air conditioning and directed it towards himself. It was a bit frightening. It seemed he couldn't let the program team announce his schedule casually in the future; he didn't like this kind of welcome ceremony very much.

At ten in the morning, the staff took everyone to the hotel, helped them check in, and then escorted them to their room doors.

The staff member said, "Mr. Chen, please rest for a while. Our program team has prepared lunch for you. You can dine at the hotel's third-floor restaurant at any time.

Additionally, as per your request, our program team did not hold a welcome ceremony for you, but we have still prepared a gift for you. We hope you like it."

Chen Xiangbei smiled, "Please convey my thanks to the program team for me. I really appreciate your work attitude!"

"Thank you for your recognition, Mr. Chen. I wish you a successful performance. I will leave now. You can call me if you need anything!"

Afterward, his agent, Li Muyu, left with the staff. She was going to confirm the performance process and some work-related matters to avoid any performance mishaps.

Chen Xiangbei told everyone to go back to their rooms and do whatever they needed to do, and just gather at the restaurant after 12 PM.

His agent and assistant said goodbye to him separately and went back to their rooms with their suitcases. Fortunately, they were all staying on the same floor, which made communication convenient.

Chen Xiangbei returned to his room, turned on the air conditioning, sat on the sofa, took out his phone, and opened the stock trading app.

He excitedly clicked on the 'Held Stocks' interface and found that both of his held stocks, Tengyuan Technology and Feicheng Technology, were in the green!

Chen Xiangbei's hanging heart finally settled!

He carefully looked at the growth situation. Tengyuan Technology grew by 8.5%, almost hitting the daily limit! The total value of his held stock now reached 520,800 yuan, meaning he earned over 40,000 yuan in just one day.

Feicheng Technology grew by 9.7%, which was quite close to the 10% daily limit condition! The total value of his held stock was 570,440 yuan, earning him over 50,000 yuan.

Together, the two stocks earned him nearly 100,000 yuan. Wasn't this just like picking up money!

Chen Xiangbei decisively sold these two stocks because they were small-cap stocks, and this much growth was likely the peak, otherwise, they would have already hit the daily limit.

Chen Xiangbei searched for potential stocks again, taking advantage of the free time in the morning, as the afternoon and evening would be busy with program recording.

After more than an hour of searching and verification, with his brain working at high speed, he finally locked onto two stocks with good potential.

Both were medical stocks: Lin'an Medical Equipment and Shuncheng Medical Equipment.

In a poor economic environment, hitting the daily limit is difficult, so finding stocks with good momentum is not easy.

Chen Xiangbei again deposited over 2.9 million yuan, bringing the total to exactly 4 million yuan, purchasing 2 million yuan worth of each stock.

After confirming everything was correct, Chen Xiangbei put down his phone and lay on the sofa to relax his mind.

Looking at stocks is very mentally taxing. You need to look at the basic information of the companies, analyze their development potential, calculate their profit models, and a series of other matters.

After resting for a while, he received the detailed program schedule from Li Muyu.

He needed to go to the studio for rehearsal at 2:30 PM, which would last for two and a half hours. Dinner would be at the studio at 5 PM, followed by makeup and other preparations, and finally waiting for the official start of the program at 8 PM.

Chen Xiangbei told Li Muyu to come back and rest first, and they would go to the studio together in the afternoon.

At lunchtime, gathered around a table at the hotel, Chen Xiangbei and the four agents and assistants ate and chatted.

Chen Xiangbei first inquired about the subsequent work arrangements, and Li Muyu answered seriously.

By the time lunch was finished, everyone had reviewed the performance process. The rest depended on Chen Xiangbei's performance.

Chen Xiangbei was very confident in his own abilities. He was more worried that the studio's audio equipment might not perfectly showcase his singing skills!

After returning to his room, Chen Xiangbei immediately contacted the System.

"Tong Zi Ge, use the Master-Level Skill Upgrade Card to upgrade Master-Level Financial Skill to Grandmaster-level Financial Skill!"

【Ding, using Master-Level Skill Upgrade Card, upgrading...】

【Ding, upgrade successful. Congratulations to the host for successfully acquiring the first Grandmaster Level Skill!】

At that moment, a magnificent sea of financial flowers seemed to bloom in Chen Xiangbei's mind.

Various complex financial concepts, data, and trends sparkled like brilliant stars, intertwined and connected, forming a grand yet mysterious picture.

He felt as if he were in a boundless financial universe, with various financial tools and strategies like agile spaceships shuttling through his thought space.
