Ever since Little Cucumber put Ham Brother in the friend zone, Han Lie’s luck suddenly took a turn for the better.
The next day was Tuesday. The broader market plumted by 1.24%, yet Wei Hua once again defied the trend and hit its upper trading limit. In the early session, it opened high with a 6-point gain, and by 9:40 AM, it had sealed its position at the upper limit. Around 10:00 AM, as the market fell, Wei Hua’s price cap was broken. It then plumted to -7%, fluctuating in negative territory until 2:30 PM, when it strongly surged and once again sealed its position at the upper trading limit.
My goodness, just for that day, the overall profit was 12.5%, which absolutely thrilled Brother Lie.
One shouldn’t consider a 12.5% profit small. Han Lie wasn’t fully invested, and with only about thirty percent of his funds used for T 0 trading, he had already made a substantial amount. If it weren’t for his firm conviction that Wei Hua was an insider trading stock, Han Lie wouldn’t have dared to play it this way.
After this battle, his victory in the small-scale live trading competition for the week was completely secured. Brother Lie had opened up a significant gap with the trailing competitors, so wide that everyone on the online stock forum was collectively stunned.
ID: SISU Humanities & Finance 1358
Yield: 18.59%
Ranking: First for the week.
What was the total score of the second-place competitor? A re 4.67%.
It was a chasm-like difference. In fact, today’s second-place holder wasn’t even the sa person as yesterday’s. Yesterday’s second-place contestant had been knocked down by today’s market plunge. Yesterday’s fifth-place contestant, through so good luck, had caught one of the only six limit-up stocks in both markets. However, due to the poor market environnt, they managed their positions very cautiously.
Quite coincidentally—this person had caught Wei Hua. So, as they say, there’s no lack of smart people in the market; it’s just that everyone has their own concerns. This individual had used fifty percent of their capital to buy three stocks: one declining, one flat, and one hitting the limit-up, showcasing a pretty solid defensive capability.
That’s just how live trading competitions go. You can’t opt out of trading, as no trading ans no score. Yet, trading too aggressively won’t work either. During bearish trends, the competition rules impose a six percent maximum loss limit. This ans there’s a very low margin for error, and one mistake can easily get you eliminated.
Among all the participants, Han Lie’s skill level, just breaking Level 4, might not even place him in the top ten. There were truly many remarkable figures in the contest, and his skills were far from enough to dominate. But he certainly was the one with the most confidence in his own operations.
Foresight is invaluable, after all! The S Board and the GEM Board would definitely maintain their positive trend until the second half of next year. The the for the end of this year was generous stock distributions and corporate restructuring. Knowing these two points, any rookie could prosper.
This wasn’t a victory of skill alone, but a triumph of foresight combined with skill. Moreover, it was the comparison with a host of experts that made Han Lie’s achievents seem all the more valuable. The praise for "SISU Humanities & Finance 1358" on the stock forum was almost reaching the heavens.
Weekly champion decided ahead of ti? That was small potatoes, not nearly sensational enough. So people were already awarding next month’s overall championship to Han Lie. This just went to show that hyping things up with wild claims wasn’t exclusive to fan circles; it had actually been quietly trending online for quite so ti.
Han Lie couldn’t be bothered with the online adulation. In reality, he also suddenly beca very busy.
The number of calls to the school office surged. So people with connections even directly sought out the dean of the business school and the counselor for the finance program. Unable to handle all the collaboration invitations, they had no choice but to report them upwards while also passing along Han Lie’s contact information. Those with average capabilities were brushed off. Those with decent standing were given an email address. Only for connections that were impossible to refuse would they disclose Han Lie’s mobile number.
Even so, Han Lie still received more than twenty calls.
"Hello, Mr. Han, I am Lin Youxi, chief assistant to the head of the asset managent departnt at CITIC Securities. May I ask if you’re interested..."
"Hello, Mr. Han, I am..."
"Hello, Mr. Han, I am Chen, manager of the financial business line in the securities market departnt at CITIC Securities..."
Of all the calls, the most interesting ones were from CITIC. Two of their core departnts were simultaneously trying to recruit him, which was indeed quite telling. The exact differences between the asset managent departnt and the trading departnt couldn’t be explained in a few hundred words, but it was clear that CITIC valued Han Lie even more than Hai Tong did. Both departnts were at the core of their proprietary trading operations and basically didn’t recruit undergraduates, yet they made an exception for Han Lie.
Four words explained it all: Han Lie was formidable!
There were indeed many similar recruitnt offers. Consequently, Counselor Liu Hong scurried over to the dormitory, shalessly offering to treat Han Lie to a al and have a heart-to-heart talk. His main goal was to persuade Han Lie not to rush into dropping out of school for work, suggesting instead that he should "settle down and mature" further. His secondary goal was to ask Han Lie which stock could be held for the long term.
"You know what a teacher’s salary is like. Ah, living in Magic Capital is tough! Forget about buying a house and getting married; even day-to-day survival is a problem... Don’t I want to be in a relationship? No, I simply can’t afford to be in one!"
He went on and on, complaining, almost as if he intended to latch onto Han Lie. Luckily, halfway through his rant, Director Che arrived.
After ejecting the shaless Liu Hong, Director Che also put on a smiling face. "Considering the complexity, intensity, and importance of the Student Union’s tasks in the upcoming period, the school leadership has decided to reorganize the Student Union. Our aim is to beco younger, more service-oriented, and more professional. We will do our best to boost both external publicity and internal services. This will promote our school’s people-centric approach and help build a team with strong capabilities..."
Han Lie nodded in satisfaction while trying to distance himself. "Mhmm, the leaders are progressive and in touch with the tis, which I admire. However, I’m quite busy with my work and cannot join the Student Union to serve everyone. So, you don’t need to explain it in such detail to ..."
"No, no, no!" Director Che quickly waved his hands, his expression rather peculiar—a mix of apprehension and a righteous conviction that Han Lie was the only one for the job. "Han Lie, the school’s intention is to increase the budget allocation for the Student Union and enhance the autonomy of certain departnts."
