97: Chapter 97: From Sky to Floor! A Huge Profit of Five Million!

Gu Jinghuan frowned and thought for a while, but he really couldn't figure it out.

"Alright, you may leave. Keep a close eye on Zhao Yang's account, including his operations. Report the subsequent situation to me at any time."

"Ah? Yes, yes, Boss!"

Li Xun was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly reacted.

At this moment, his perception of Zhao Yang suddenly underwent a 180-degree shift. This excessively young wealthy man seemed to have some connection with his big boss!

It seemed that he would have to build a good relationship with him from now on!

Over the next two days, Zhao Yang's life remained very disciplined.

During the day at school, he was that taciturn, Library-dwelling weirdo top student who occasionally disappeared on leave.

At night and during class breaks, he constantly reviewed the impending storm in his mind.

"Ding! User has finished reading 'Cell Signaling Transduction Mechanisms', Biology experience +2!"

"Ding! User has finished reading 'Ethical Boundaries of Gene Editing Technology', Biology experience +1!"

Even in the intervals waiting for the stock market to open, Zhao Yang didn't waste a single second, switching from one thesis to another in his hands.

To him, making money was just a means; scientific research was the goal.

Without money, there would be no top-tier laboratories, no expensive reagents and equipment, and no way to adequately prepare for his subsequent subject upgrades.

Therefore, he had to make this money from the stock market! And he had to make it aggressively!

Finally.

The date reached October 28th.

On this day, the entire Dragon Kingdom financial world was shrouded in an aura of despair.

us stocks plummeted, and the peripheral markets were a sea of miserable green.

The A-share market took a dive right at the opening!

The Shanghai Composite Index trended downward all the way, directly piercing through everyone's psychological defense line.

The 1700-point mark was broken!

The 1680-point mark was broken!

Panic selling poured out frantically. Countless retail investors cut their losses and left the market in despair, as blood-stained chips flew everywhere.

Inside the Global Securities VIP high-net-worth room.

Li Xun's face turned pale.

He looked at the shocking large black candle on the screen, his voice trembling: "Mr... Mr. Zhao, Taihang Cement has hit the Limit down! Conch Cement has dropped 8 points! Your account's floating loss has already exceeded 10%! If it drops further... it will soon hit the warning line!"

If Zhao Yang hadn't kept eight million in cash earlier, he would probably be facing a margin call by now, or even the liquidation line!

"Don't panic."

Zhao Yang's voice remained as steady as a rock; he even had the leisure to take a sip of tea.

His gaze was fixed intently on the market index.

1665 points...

1664 points!

The very moment the market touched 1664.93.

Zhao Yang abruptly set down his teacup, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

Now is the time!

The historical bottom!

The golden pit that caused countless investors in his previous life to feel bitter remorse and countless institutions to sigh with regret!

"The last eight million, buy it all! Pry open Taihang Cement's Limit down board for me!"

Without the slightest hesitation, buy orders rapidly began bottom-fishing one after another!

Li Xun stared at Zhao Yang, dumbfounded.

He's crazy!

Completely insane!

Going all-in with a full position at the Limit down? Was he worried he wasn't dying fast enough?

But as a broker, he had no right to interfere with the client's operations. He could only watch helplessly as that eight million in capital, like a clay ox entering the sea, instantly rushed into Taihang Cement's ocean of sell orders.

However.

A miracle happened.

The moment Zhao Yang's massive order smashed down, it was as if it were some kind of signal, or a resonance of some mysterious power.

An even more massive wave of long capital suddenly emerged in the market!

The thick layer of Limit down sell orders on Taihang Cement was actually eaten up instantly within seconds!

Immediately after, the stock price shot up in a straight line!

-10%... -5%... 0%... +2%...

It turned red!

Amidst the dismal market where the screen was entirely green, the cement sector was like a solitary red plum blossom, blooming proudly!

"Floor-to-ceiling limit! It's a Floor-to-ceiling limit!"

Li Xun was so excited he almost jumped up, completely disregarding his image as he pointed at the screen and shouted.

Taihang Cement pulled straight from the Limit down to the Limit up!

In a short period! A direct, crazy surge of 20%!

And Zhao Yang, who held a full position, not only wiped out his previous floating losses because of this eight-million-yuan position increase, but his single-day floating profit even went off the charts!

The market also began a miraculous V-shaped reversal after touching 1664 points.

At the close, the Shanghai Composite Index closed with a long lower shadow—a Golden needle probing the bottom!

The entire VIP room fell into a dead silence.

Then came Li Xun's heavy breathing.

He looked at Zhao Yang, who sat on the sofa with a calm expression as if he had only done something trivial, and his gaze completely changed.

This wasn't a gambler.

This was a Stock God!

"Mr... Mr. Zhao, today's profit statistics are out..." Li Xun swallowed hard, his hands holding the report trembling, "Adding in the positions from the day before yesterday, your single-day floating profit today... exceeds five million!"

Five million in one day!

What kind of concept was that?

In this era where the average salary was only two or three thousand, Zhao Yang had earned as much in one day as an ordinary person would in several lifetimes!

"Hmm, not bad."

Zhao Yang merely nodded, not showing much wild joy.

Because he knew this was only the beginning.

The real madness was yet to come. The four-trillion-yuan bombshell hadn't been dropped yet; right now, there were only some rumors circulating.

This is just a start! The main upward wave for cement stocks hasn't truly arrived yet.

"The subsequent operation is simple. Unless I give the word, just keep holding. Don't sell, no matter how much it fluctuates."

Zhao Yang stood up and straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes.

"Alright! Alright! I'll follow your instructions completely!"

Li Xun's current attitude was practically more respectful than toward his own father; this was the God of Wealth!

Zhao Yang checked his watch; it was 3:30 PM.

"Alright, I have to go back to school. I have an elective class tonight."

Li Xun: "..."

Watching Zhao Yang's departing back, Li Xun stood there, dazed in the wind.

Who could have imagined that the financial mogul who was just commanding the scene, calling the shots in the stock market, and raking in five million in a single day, was going out just to rush back for an elective class?

This world is too crazy!

...

Back at Beijing Forestry University.

The campus was still peaceful. The radio station was playing Jay Chou's 'Rice Field Fragrance', couples were strolling on the field, and the sound of thumping came from the basketball court.

Zhao Yang passed by a convenience stall, bought a grilled sausage, and walked toward the dormitory while eating.

He pushed open the dormitory door.

His several roommates were actually all there, which was rare.

"Brother Yang is back!"

The three roommates all called out to Zhao Yang.

"Yeah, you're all here?"

Zhao Yang was a bit surprised.

"We just finished an elective class..."

Li Tianqi looked at Zhao Yang beside him with a speechless expression.

"Brother Yang, what's been up with you lately? You used to be the best student in the class, the most proactive about going to every single lecture, and the most serious in class, but these past few days you're...???"

Li Tianqi looked at Zhao Yang curiously.

"Yeah! Brother Yang, you've been really weird these past few days, completely different from before. You don't even seem to remember classes well. What are you busy with?"
