In Chen Hong’s office, he sat in the executive chair, checking on the situation at Tianhong Investnt Company.
Chen Ergou, pouring tea on the side, really resembled a dog.
"Worthy of Luofeng; just the remote release of a threatening ssage caused Tianhong to suffer a capital withdrawal of over five billion," Chen Hong said with so admiration.
Next to Chen Ergou, Manager Wei from Shengyuan Group also spoke, "The main reason is that Luofeng’s investnt company has had such a great track record. It’s normal for people to be scared of Fengshun Investnt. But in fact, unless Luofeng has detailed knowledge of Tianhong’s specific investnt situation, it’s impossible for him to strike Tianhong."
Chen Hong said, "What I’m worried about now is that Luofeng might use so ans to grasp Tianhong’s specific investnt details."
"Young Master Chen, if Tianhong really doesn’t make it, do we really need to save them?" the manager asked.
"Of course. Tianhong has many high-quality resources, and those resources are our targets," Chen Hong replied.
"Understood." The manager finally understood. The "rescue" Chen Hong spoke of? It was actually just looting a burning house. The Chen Families of Capital City and Jinling were indeed of the sa lineage, but when interests were at stake, lineage ant little. What did brotherhood matter then? So, why hadn’t the other two Chen Families in Capital City stepped in when Chen Ergou’s family was in trouble? And the Chen Family in Jinling hadn’t either, had they? If they had stepped in, they definitely would have had sothing to gain. Since they hadn’t, they naturally had nothing to gain.
On the surface, it looked like Chen Ergou had incited him to take revenge on Luofeng. But in reality? Could Chen Ergou truly sway him if there was no benefit in it for him? He wasn’t a fool, was he?
But Chen Ergou understood all of this; he was just going with the flow.
In the apartnt, Luofeng sent a ssage to Chen Ping: "How’s the situation?"
Chen Ping replied, "Boss Luo, with the cooperation of Zhongyi Tang, we’ve now found quite a lot of information about Tianhong. This information is enough to suppress them, and we can also make so profit from it. Should we earn a bit of pocket money?"
Luofeng’s Fengshun Investnt had never been involved in the Daxia stock market, and this current involvent solely targeted Tianhong.
Luofeng ssaged, "Chen Ping, focus on striking Tianhong. Making money is fine—take what we can get—but don’t fixate on how much. Send all the operation details afterward; I want to make sure there are no issues."
"Alright, Boss Luo," Chen Ping replied. "With a capital of fifty million, we can make at least a thirty percent profit this ti."
Luofeng responded, "Hmm, keep up the good work."
"Yes, Boss Luo, rest assured. We’ll give them a nasty surprise when the market opens tomorrow," Chen Ping assured him.
「The next morning.」
At nine o’clock, in the circles of Capital City, many relevant personnel were paying close attention to the struggle between Tianhong and Luofeng. According to the grapevine, today was the day the two companies would begin their battle. In nurous WeChat and QQ groups, people in the know were discussing the matter.
At half-past nine, just as the Daxia stock market opened, Fengshun Investnt Company released news revealing that Tianhong indirectly held eight percent of the stock in Rabbit Island Seafood Group. This batch of stock had been purchased by Tianhong last year at a price of 5.5 yuan per share. Based on the current price of 2.41 yuan for Rabbit Island Seafood Group, Tianhong had lost about 160 million yuan on this company alone.
This piece of news exploded, and it was verified by other investnt companies, confirming that Tianhong indeed held the stock and was even the fifth-largest shareholder. However, because it was only an indirect holding, they were not listed among the company’s top ten shareholders.
Nevertheless, Fengshun Investnt’s attack did not stop there. Luofeng had just exposed Tianhong for being a scapegoat and losing over a hundred million, then proceeded with a new round of revelations. Luofeng disclosed that Rabbit Island Seafood Group, a company Tianhong had invested in, was suspected of falsifying seafood production figures and suffered from financial chaos within the group. He even revealed data on port ship movents, ship fuel consumption, and more. This proved that Rabbit Island Seafood Group had indeed falsified production figures, as the ship and fuel data simply could not support such large output.
After this news broke, not only did Rabbit Island Seafood Group’s stock plumt, but Tianhong, which had invested in the company, was also affected. A large number of Tianhong’s clients wanted to withdraw their funds to avoid being trapped.
In the financial circles, those who were originally skeptical of Fengshun Investnt were now astonished. They had not expected Fengshun Investnt to bypass direct competition and instead target the fundantal investnts of Tianhong. Tianhong, despite its apparent size, seed sowhat beleaguered in the face of Luofeng’s attack. It was like a massive insect with over ten thousand health points but no armor or magic resistance—utterly bloated. This hit threw Tianhong into disarray.
While Tianhong dealt with client withdrawals, they began to issue announcents. They stated they had never held any shares in Rabbit Island Seafood Group. Even if they had, the total loss would not have exceeded 150 million. They also declared their company’s size exceeded one hundred billion. With over twenty years of establishnt, its lowest annual return rate was six percent, and the highest 8.4 percent. A loss of less than 0.3 percent was rely a normal fluctuation of investnt risk. They further stated their company was very optimistic about the future developnt of Rabbit Island Seafood Group and even urged the group to hold Fengshun Investnt Company accountable for spreading rumors. Finally, Tianhong asserted that Fengshun Investnt was rely a company established for less than a year, questioning how credible such a company could be.
Following these announcents from Tianhong, they gained so support. For example, Rabbit Island Seafood Group was obviously cheering them on and declaring that all data from Luo Feng’s Company was rumor.
However, as soon as Rabbit Island Seafood Group’s announcent was issued, it was ruthlessly debunked. A social dia blogger began posting videos filled with conclusive evidence on short video platforms and Bilibili. In this new era, it was no longer like the past when companies could easily deceive the public. Exposure channels existed, and as long as one had evidence, the truth would surely beco widely known—unless you possessed incomparably powerful connections.
The counter-attack from Tianhong and Rabbit Island Seafood Group was still insufficient against Luofeng.
"Thanks to Xiao Huli, I withdrew my investnt from Tianhong yesterday, and today I’m just enjoying the show."
"Xiao Huli, thank you. I’ll take you out for a al soti—of course, when you have ti. I’m free anyti."
"Thank you, Goddess Xiao Huli! I safely withdrew my twenty million; it’s perfectly safe now."
"I’m dying to say ’motherf***er,’ but I don’t know if I should. Mine is a fixed investnt with a one-year term."
"I didn’t get out either—seven million!"
"Goddess Xiao Huli, what’s the current situation? Can you tell us?"
In one of Su Xiaohu’s groups, everyone was thanking Su Xiaohu and asking for more information.
Finally, Su Xiaohu spoke up, "I said it yesterday. If Duanmu Yunji retracted the information, then it was very likely to be true. But so of you still didn’t believe , and I couldn’t do anything about that."
