Starting with a fully invested A-share portfolio to become a capital...

Chapter 167 The successive closures of "Cai Dong Tong" websites: The truth Buffett couldn't reveal.
Oriental Fortune Building.

Technical department.

More than twenty key technical personnel, expressionless, used a "SYN flood script" to attack the Caiyan.com server.

The so-called "SYN flood script" uses automated scripts to forge hundreds of thousands of connection requests, each with a fake source IP address, flooding the server like countless emails without a reply address.

Only thirty seconds had passed.

Caiyan.com is no longer accessible.

The server is unable to respond to any normal user requests.

Many website users, seeing the "request timed out" pop-up, flocked to Weibo and left messages on the official account of "Fortune Research Network".

[Little Bouncing Egg]: What's going on? I was watching the text live stream when it suddenly stopped updating. I refreshed the page, but I can't even access the website.

[Windmill whooshing]: I thought I was lagging, so I disconnected and reconnected my broadband connection. I didn't expect it to be a problem with the website?

[Genius Left, Madman Right]: The boss is still in the US having a high-level discussion with Buffett, while his own backyard is already on fire. When Zhang Yang returns to China, the technical department of Caiyan.com will probably be laid off from head to toe!

[No opinion]: I was originally watching the market and trading US stocks, but with Caiyan.com doing this, I really need to consider switching to Eastmoney and Tonghuashun.

In 2009, a large number of foreign stock market investors, especially those investing in US stocks, were suddenly unable to access Caiyan.com, which would definitely push them to other financial websites for stock market analysis.

Anyone who has studied psychology knows that people have habits.

What is habituality?
Simply put, it's about getting used to doing something.

For example, when you first start working out, you might feel like you're in excruciating pain and think, "Isn't this just paying money to suffer?"
But after a month, six months, or a year, fitness becomes a latent habit, and if you don't go to the gym, you'll feel uncomfortable all over.

Cultivating user habits is an essential course for internet companies. Once these habits are broken, user churn is likely to occur.

After dialing Jiang Haoran's number, Dai Shuhan quickly recounted the situation:
"I'm sorry to bother you, Manager Jiang, but our financial research website is currently under a DoS attack from a competitor. Countless connection requests are consuming server resources, and normal users are unable to use the website's functions. What should we do now?"

Are foreign addresses blocked?

Jiang Haoran inquired.

"All addresses have been blocked, but countless domestic addresses are still requesting access. Can this be resolved by reporting this to the police?"

Dai Shuhan inquired.

Currently, all technical staff at Caiyan.com have been recalled to counter the cyberattack.

“It’s no use, they’re all botnets.” Jiang Haoran shook his head and then said, “Wait a moment, I’ll go back to the company first, and Alibaba’s security department will take over the protection remotely later.”

The so-called "zombie" is like a puppet in the hands of hackers, a computer device that has been infected with Trojan viruses long beforehand.

Computer use remains unaffected until the computer is woken up.

However, once a hacker activates a Trojan program, these infected computers become the hacker's weapons, the most obvious sign of which is excessively high CPU usage.

Even if they are traced back to a botnet, the IP address they find is still the botnet's IP address, and the real mastermind remains hidden in the shadows.

……

After completely crashing the financial research website, Lin Yuan called Shen Jun.

"Dududu-"

The call was connected instantly.

"how's it going?"

Shen Jun couldn't wait to ask.

"It's down. We used a UDP reflection script to completely paralyze Caiyan.com. It will be difficult for them to recover in a short time."

Lin Yuan reported the good news.

UDP reflection scripts differ from SYN flood scripts; they are a second attack strategy. The principle is to send a large number of requests to a public DNS server, with the target server's IP address filled in the request headers, so that the public server attacks the target website.

To put it simply, they enter your phone number into a dating website, then use a large number of botnets to request registration verification codes, and your phone will receive a large number of text messages.

To prevent hackers from using their servers for malicious purposes, many companies implement interval authentication for single accounts.

However, in 2009, many companies did not set up interval authentication, so UDP reflection scripts were widely used.

SYN floods and UDP reflections can basically paralyze small and medium-sized websites. If you add CC attack scripts targeting paid system pages, even large websites may not be able to withstand it.

"Difficult to restore means there is hope of restoration. I don't care what methods you use, you must ensure that Caiyan.com cannot be accessed normally for the next three hours," Shen Jun gave a firm order.

In his view, if he could make Caiyan.com lose more than 2000 million yuan, he might be able to nip the other party in the bud.

Shen Jun has also dealt with Alibaba; its investments are either accompanied by stringent performance-based agreements or absolute control.

Capital is profit-driven. The best time to destroy a website is before it becomes profitable, and then eliminate it with lightning speed!
Once a website becomes profitable, venture capital firms will assess its value. If they believe it has sustainable profitability, venture capital will continue to flow into the website until the firm cashes out and leaves.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Lin Yuan raised his voice, demonstrating his determination.

at the same time.

Hangzhou, Jiangsu and Zhejiang province.

Tonghuashun headquarters building.

Wearing a white shirt and round-framed black glasses, the refined and elegant Yi Zheng was watching this online confrontation with great interest.

"Who made such a decisive move? This saves me from breaching the contract."

He had no intention of using a DoS attack because of the contractual obligations and the fact that Caiyan.com had Alibaba backing.

Now that someone can't hold back any longer, he can reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

Not only Eastmoney and Tonghuashun, but also the technology departments of Sina Finance, Tencent Finance, and NetEase Finance are witnessing this drama.

They don't know who is attacking Caiyan.com, but they are certain that if Caiyan.com is destroyed, they will also benefit.

……

New York, USA.

Smith & Wollensky restaurant.

Zhang Yang was unaware that his financial research website was under attack. After having lunch with Buffett, he took the laptop bag handed to him by Xu Zhirou and took out the laptop inside.

Although China has a firewall, its main function is to prevent domestic netizens from accessing foreign websites. Foreign netizens can directly access the Chinese internet.

"What's the restaurant's Wi-Fi password?" Zhang Yang asked the waiter next to him.

Upon hearing this, the waiter instinctively replied, "ABC12345".

Zhang Yang successfully connected to the internet and then opened the website he had saved.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

The website is still loading.

Zhang Yang initially thought it was due to slow internet speed, but after ten seconds, Caiyan.com still didn't respond and eventually even refused access.

"Try connecting to the VPN," Xu Zhirou said in a low voice, noticing the anomaly immediately.

They had made two preparations before coming to New York.

If a direct internet connection doesn't work, use a VPN, because sometimes, access to the Chinese internet from foreign networks is inexplicably blocked by the firewall.

Zhang Yang immediately connected to a VPN in Hong Kong Island and accessed the financial research website again.

one second.

Five seconds.

ten seconds.

The website is still loading.

After twenty seconds, the webpage displayed a "502 error" message.

A 502 error is a common HTTP status code, short for "502 Bad Gateway," which is usually caused by the upstream website server being unable to respond.

"..."

Zhang Yang fell silent; his worst fears had come true.

Before attending the charity lunch, he anticipated that his colleagues might cause trouble, so he specifically asked for the number of Alibaba's technical manager and instructed Dai Shuhan to act according to the situation.

In retrospect, his prediction was correct; his peers are indeed decisive and efficient in their work.

This is normal, though. Business competition is about dividing the pie. If Caiyan.com becomes a leader in the industry, Zhang Yang will try every means to prevent his website from being replaced.

Xu Zhirou thought quickly and said in a low voice, "I'll contact people back home to inquire about the specific situation. You can stall for time."

With things having come to this point, Zhang Yang could only agree, saying, "I will try my best to delay."

"Excuse me, I need to use the restroom." Xu Zhirou quickly stood up and looked at Buffett apologetically.

"This way, ma'am."

The waiter quickly led the way.

Buffett didn't think much of it; he had no idea what was going on.

When Xu Zhirou went to the restroom, she brought her spare computer with her, but this action did not attract much attention.

This is because toilets are the standard feature in American restrooms, and many people like to surf the internet while defecating.

……

Since the financial research website was inaccessible, Zhang Yang closed his laptop, looked at Buffett, and changed the subject:

"We all know that Mr. Buffett, you were a short-term trader in your early years. Now, most investors in the global stock market are short-term traders. Could you share some of your commonly used reference indicators?"

"Short-term..."

Buffett tried hard to recall, realizing he hadn't done short-term trading in a long time.

Since he started investing for the long term, he no longer needs to refer to any short-term indicators; he only needs to judge the general direction of the future to make a profit.

"MACD, RSI, and KDJ are all good reference indicators. If it is short-term, KDJ is relatively more sensitive."

Buffett responded.

Technical analysts know that MACD has a lagging effect. Its core is to calculate the difference between the 12-day and 26-day EMA exponential moving averages to obtain the DIF line, and then take the 9-day EMA exponential moving average of this difference to obtain the DEA signal line. The final indicator line is essentially a "smoothing" and "lagging reflection" of price trends.

Because of its lag, the MACD technical indicator is usually different from intraday trading, and is used to judge short-term future trends.

Of course, it can also be used for intraday trading, but it is not as reliable as the RSI and KDJ technical indicators.

Upon hearing Buffett's recommendation to use the KDJ technical indicator, Zhang Yang immediately chimed in, "I also often use the KDJ technical indicator to judge intraday trading trends, but it tends to frequently report errors during one-sided market conditions."

"Yes."

Buffett nodded and smiled, saying, "Any technical indicator is just a reference. If you could make money just by looking at indicators, everyone would be a billionaire."

"Hmm, what about the RSI technical indicator?"

Zhang Yang asked again.

Their casual conversation was relayed to China, leaving many retail investors bewildered. Some veteran stock market investors even asked the fundamental question: What are the RSI and KDJ technical indicators?
[Auntie Soaring to the Sky]: MACD already has me scratching my head, what the hell are RSI and KDJ indicators?
[Branch Huoshan Road]: Since I started investing in stocks, I've learned to watch the news, gained some understanding of macroeconomics, and started paying attention to national affairs. Most importantly, I can even read corporate financial statements now. And you're telling me there are other indicators I need to learn?

[Chocolate]: The best way to help a man improve is not by having a woman urge him on, but by letting him trade stocks. And now, in addition to support levels, trading ranges, MACD, and top divergence, RSI and KDJ technical indicators have also emerged.

[Genius Youngster]: Seriously? You guys who do short-term trading don't even learn RSI and KDJ? These are intraday reference indicators!

[Bei Wangchuan]: Stock trading is so much fun! I love stock trading. Who understands this feeling of having to learn every day? It's like going back to my student days.

At this time, a wave of learning swept through the domestic internet community among individual investors.

If not 100%, at least 95% of A-share investors enter the market full of enthusiasm, only to lose everything.

Why is this happening?

The reason lies in "brainless rush".

Even if a truly professionally trained stock investor doesn't make a profit, they won't lose much either.

Because technical indicators such as MACD, RSI, and KDJ, as well as news interpretations and risk models, all have corresponding concepts and have the ability to provide a safety net.

At this point, many people may ask, what exactly are RSI and KDJ indicators?
KDJ, or Stochastic Oscillator, is mainly used to determine overbought or oversold conditions in the market and to signal turning points in price trends.

It consists of three curves: the K-line, the D-line, and the J-line.

The K-line is a fast confirmation line and reacts more sensitively, while the D-line is a slow main line, which is the moving average of the K-line and reacts more gradually.

As for the final J-line, it is called the direction-sensitive line, which can predict the trend of the K-line and D-line in advance.

Like the 5-day and 10-day moving averages, KDJ also has golden crosses and death crosses. For example, when the K line crosses the D line from below, it is usually considered a buy signal. If the K line crosses the D line from above, it is usually considered a sell signal.

Unlike the KDJ indicator, which is suitable for intraday trading, the RSI indicator is suitable for short-term trading of 1 to 3 days, especially in volatile markets.

The RSI indicator, or Relative Strength Index, reacts slightly slower than the KDJ but faster than the MACD. It can determine short-term price overbought or oversold conditions through overbought/oversold zones and short-term divergence signals.

The three technical indicators MACD, RSI, and KDJ correspond to the short-term trend, short-term oscillation trend, and intraday trend, respectively.

……

While Zhang Yang was chatting idly to stall for time, Xu Zhirou had already arrived at the Smith & Wollensky restaurant's restroom. She sat directly on the toilet seat and, making the most of every second, sent an inquiry email to the domestic staff.

One minute.

Two minutes.

three minutes.

"Ding dong."

A new email has been received. [Our server has been attacked by a DoS attack. Alibaba's security technology department is currently fixing it, and it is expected to take about an hour.]
"How shameless!"

Xu Zhirou couldn't help but complain.

Business competition is ruthless, but she didn't expect it to be this ruthless, that it would strike at a critical juncture for Caiyan.com.

After getting a general idea of ​​the situation and the repair time, Xu Zhirou immediately pressed the toilet flush button and then quickly returned to the restaurant.

At this moment, Zhang Yang was still chatting with Buffett at the dinner table.

"For short-term trading, we look at indicators, trading volume, and capital flows; for long-term trading, we look at future trends. So how should we trade in the medium term?"

"In my view, the mid-term strategy is the most difficult profit model."

Buffett first stated his position, and then explained: "Because the core of medium-term trading is neither staring at the indicators on the candlestick chart jumping around, nor blindly holding on for several years without any regard for the market. It is more like finding a balance between the company's medium-term growth trajectory and the market's reasonable reaction rhythm."

After finishing his sentence, he glanced at Zhang Yang, Liao Guopei, and Lin Guangchang, and asked in return, "What do you think about trading in the medium term?"

"I really don't know that, because I never play the middle line."

Lin Guangchang made an awkward statement.

He's a short-term trader, or more accurately, a short-term trader who creates bizarre trends.

Playing the middle line?
It's no exaggeration to say that anyone who dares to play the medium-term game in the A-share market is a true warrior!
Mid-term trend analysis requires not only judging the future trend of a company, but also referring to short-term technical indicators and analyzing the pressure on funds. It is a trading model that needs to take into account both short-term and long-term factors.

"what did he say?"

Liao Guopei looked at Jessica.

Because of his poor English, he could only watch Zhang Yang, Lin Guangchang, Xu Zhiruo and others communicate with Buffett.

“Buffett asked you how to trade in the medium term,” Jessica translated.

"The center line..."

Liao Guopei fell silent. He and Lin Guangchang were both short-term traders, so they could only rely on Zhang Yang, who was a professionally trained trader and might know about medium-term trading.

"In my opinion," Zhang Yang paused for a moment before stating his viewpoint, "the medium-term approach is a certainty-based trading model."

"Short-term traders always try to use technical indicators to catch tomorrow's rise and fall, but when market sentiment is high, indicators often mislead."

“Long-term investors need patience and composure, but many people often lack composure. They are either shaken out by short-term fluctuations or sell their stocks before the first round of price increases.”

"As for the medium term, it is more like intervening when a company has shown clear growth signals but has not yet been fully priced in by the market, in order to reap the benefits of a rise in value after the logic has been validated."

"Clap clap-"

"Excellent."

While applauding and praising Zhang Yang, Buffett agreed with Zhang Yang's statement, saying, "Just as you said, the medium-term is a certainty trading model. It can avoid short-term risks to a certain extent, and it does not require the same level of composure as the long-term approach."

"If your mid-term holdings are profitable, when would you sell?"

he asked again.

Zhang Yang smiled and shared his perspective: "I've always emphasized to others that you should buy when no one is interested and sell when everyone is talking about it. In the medium term, that means you should buy when the trend is clear and sell when everyone is talking about it."

As she said this, Xu Zhirou sat back down next to Zhang Yang and whispered, "The server has been attacked. Alibaba's security department is getting involved, and it will take about an hour."

A flicker of anger flashed in Zhang Yang's eyes, but he didn't show it.

As expected, it was his competitors who were sabotaging him. He knew that capital wouldn't easily give up the market, so now he could only continue to delay.

After listening to Zhang Yang's views on selling in the medium term, Buffett praised him again, saying, "I never expected that you, Zhang Yang, were such a seasoned trader. This is something I never anticipated."

He initially thought Zhang Yang didn't understand investment and was just a CEO deeply involved in the business field.

But the result?

Zhang Yang not only understands trading, but he understands it even better than Liao Guopei and Lin Guangchang.

Sun Guodong, who was watching the live broadcast, couldn't help but remark in the Ningbo Limit-Up Daredevil Team's QQ chat group: "This CEO named Zhang Yang seems to have some understanding of investment."

[Ma Xinqi]: ​​The head of the firm even tried to recruit him to Zexi Private Equity, but he was rejected. You tell me, does he have anything to offer? He's a rising star in Shanghai's financial world!
[Shu Yimin]: That's awesome?
[Xu Haiou]: Zhang Yang is indeed quite impressive. He has been mentioned at several dinner parties I've attended recently. In addition, I heard that he has a special relationship with Bao Xingwei, the dean of finance at Shanghai University of Finance and Economics.

[Sun Guodong]: Father and son?
[Xu Haiou]: Bao Xingwei is over 90 years old, father my ass. I heard it's a master-disciple relationship, not the kind of teacher-student relationship in university, but a master-disciple relationship. Think about it carefully.

Looking at the QQ group messages, Xu Xiang suddenly realized, "So that's the connection. No wonder they didn't come to Zexi Private Equity."

He genuinely wanted to recruit Zhang Yang, but the other party didn't seem interested.

Just then, a speculator named "Sheng Zhiwen" typed: "I've discovered a shocking secret. I just checked the chat history and found that the ID that asked the guy who jumped off the building to intercept the top of Rhine Biologics was called joker. Moreover, through joker's Baidu account history, I know that he is the founder of Caiyan.com."

“Zhang Yang is Joker, and Joker is Zhang Yang. Back then, the sales positions of Jielong were Wuyingjiao’s Chancheng Jihua Fifth Road and Jiangzhe’s Fuchun Road. Now that Wuyingjiao and Zhang Yang are attending events, do you think it’s possible that Fuchun Road is one of them?”

As the clues were uncovered, the Ningbo Limit-Up Daredevil Team's chat group fell silent at first, and then Xu Haiou directly rejected the idea:

"Impossible. Wuyingjiao is from Chancheng, and his family background is ordinary. How could he mediate the backdoor listing of Kainuo Technology and Meijin Group?"

It's worth noting that Fuchun Road was a top-tier speculative investment firm with close ties to the company, causing Meijin Group and Kainuo Technology to suspend their backdoor listings for several days.

If Liao Guopei had this connection, he would have been a top-tier speculative investor long ago.

[Sun Guodong]: Brother Xu is right. I guess it's just a coincidence. With the power of the Shadowless Kick, it wouldn't be enough to make Meijin Group and Kainuo Technology suspend their backdoor listings.

[Ma Xinqi]: ​​Fuchun Road should be Boss Liu's front man, but who that front man is, that's hard to say.

[Xu Xiang]: You mean Zhang Yang?

[Shu Yimin]: Judging from the current situation, this young man, who is known as the Joker God, does indeed have a high level of trading talent.

[Xu Haiou]: Could it be that Zhang Yang is Boss Liu's front man?

When the message was sent, Xu Xiang clenched his fists. If Zhang Yang really was "Fuchun Road", then this guy was two-faced!
Using the "joker" account to protect retail investors while simultaneously using the "Fuchun Road" account to fleece them—is this something a human being would do?
[Sun Guodong]: I have an uncle who is the vice president of Hongyue Investment. I'll ask him later. If Zhang Yang really is from Fuchun Road, he couldn't possibly not know about it.

They are very close to the truth, but they are not yet certain.

……

And on the other side.

Phoenix Mountain in Hangzhou.

Greentown Peach Blossom Garden Community.

Ma Yun received a call from Jiang Haoran, the general manager of the technology department, who was someone she could speak directly with.

"Fixed?"

Ma Yun got straight to the point.

After observing Zhang Yang's conversation with Buffett, he became even more convinced that Zhang Yang was a talent who could help him make a lot of money.

Jiang Haoran was stunned for a moment, then said in a weak voice, "We haven't reached Mr. Ma yet. Caiyan.com's security system is too rudimentary. It has been thoroughly infiltrated by the other side. Now, perhaps only you can step in and keep things under control."

"Have you found the other party's address?"

Ma Yun understood immediately.

“Through reverse penetration technology, we have confirmed the approximate address of the other party’s computer. It is located on Wanping Road in Shanghai, where Eastmoney’s office building is located.”

Jiang Haoran reported the information.

"East Money Information..."

Ma Yun couldn't help but frown.

He wasn't familiar with Shen Jun, and the other party might not give him face.

However, we can't let the 5000 million invested in Zhang Yang go to waste.

The reason he agreed to the bet was not only to have Zhang Yang act as a pioneer to test the waters of internet finance, but also to have him cultivate user habits for him.

Once users get used to viewing charts on Taobao and Alipay, it won't be difficult to switch content and switch to complete self-service.

Zhang Yang has his own agenda.

Ma Yun also had her own plans.

Caiyan.com still has some value, and Ma Yun doesn't want it to die so quickly, so she instructed: "Arrange for people to attack Eastmoney's servers and give them a warning."

"I'll arrange it right away."

Jiang Haoran immediately understood.

Attacking is much simpler than defending; they can simply follow suit step by step.

The moment he hung up the phone, Jiang Haoran immediately dispatched a group of people to use scripts to attack Eastmoney's servers.

As a leading internet company, Alibaba's cyberattacks are not something Eastmoney can withstand.

Less than three minutes later, Eastmoney also displayed a 502 error message, and many users began to complain on other platforms.

[Little Squirrel]: No, what's going on tonight? Caiyan.com and Eastmoney are both down. Have they all gone bankrupt?

[Social Brother]: I thought my internet connection was down, and I even unplugged the network cable several times. Turns out, Eastmoney crashed!

[The Legendary Twins]: I was watching the live stream perfectly fine, and then it suddenly cut off. Where did all the money I usually earn go?

[Love You Forever]: Right now, only Tonghuashun, Sina Finance, Tencent Finance, NetEase Finance, and Baidu Finance are fine. I don't know what Eastmoney is up to.

While website users were hurling insults, Eastmoney's technology department was in complete disarray, with exclamations rising and falling.

"DoS attack!"

"No, wait, there's also a Trojan horse infiltration!"

"We have an address in the brute-force attack backend; the other side's technical department has found us!"

"My computer has restarted!"

"What should we do now, Manager Lin?"

The programmers looked at Lin Yuan. After only one exchange, his opponent used a DoS attack with a frequency of millions of times to violently destroy Eastmoney's server. Then, through port penetration and brute-force cracking, he was going to devour them whole!
"Let me ask Mr. Shen."

Lin Yuan immediately called Shen Jun.

"Dududu-"

After a brief busy signal, the call was answered.

"what happened?"

Shen Jun hadn't slept; he was still watching the charity lunch livestream and checking if Caiyan.com could be fixed.

"Mr. Shen, our website's bandwidth and memory are completely exhausted, and the other party is also using DoS commands to attack our payment system."

Furthermore, each transaction involves complex form data and cookies, forcing the server to repeatedly perform database queries and session verifications. Currently, Eastmoney.com is no longer accessible.

"what?"

As soon as Lin Yuan finished speaking, Shen Jun completely lost his composure and hurriedly questioned, "Does Caiyan.com have this kind of technical team?"

"Maybe...maybe it's Alibaba."

Lin Yuan guessed.

"..."

Shen Jun remained silent for a moment. Now that things had come to this, it seemed there was no turning back. He said in a deep voice, "Ignore it and continue attacking Caiyan.com. In terms of user stickiness, we have the advantage!"

The sword was already drawn; sheathing it now would mean failure. He was determined to go all the way and not let Zhang Yang's financial research website squeeze into the ranks of mainstream financial websites.

Don't be fooled by the seemingly kind and gentle demeanor of business leaders in front of the camera; behind the scenes, they are all ruthless individuals capable of going all in.

As the saying goes, a kind heart cannot command an army. The same applies to running a business. If you are kind, you will never be able to grow your business, because the path to a business's rise will inevitably be littered with corpses.

Just as Shen Jun made his decision, Tonghuashun also suffered a large number of DoS attacks and became inaccessible after only a few moments.

Ma Yun had been following this online game closely. When he saw that Tonghuashun was also affected, he knew that a new force had intervened.

……

Zhang Yang was unaware that the domestic internet was already fiercely competitive, with Caiyan.com, Eastmoney.com, and Tonghuashun.com successively shutting down and unable to respond to user requests.

After chatting with Buffett for an hour, it was already 2 p.m. when the former suddenly brought up the topic: "President Zhang Yang is very knowledgeable and experienced. I'm looking forward to seeing how your website is doing."

The meaning of this statement is quite clear: it aims to scrutinize how well Caiyan.com is performing.

Zhang Yang glanced at Xu Zhirou, who shook her head and whispered, "I've asked my dad to contact President Zhou. Let's stall for time a bit longer."

The "General Manager Zhou" she mentioned is Zhou Hongwei, the CEO of Qihoo Technology.

As long as Qihoo Technology intervenes to mediate, Chinese internet companies will give it face. After all, the 360 ​​suite is no joke; if it causes any more trouble, they might just install a bird wallpaper on its servers.

Zhang Yang's mindset was unusual. After taking a deep breath and exhaling, he smiled and looked at Buffett, saying, "I have a macroeconomic question that has been puzzling me for a long time, and I would like to ask you, Mr. Buffett, for advice."

The shift in topic again made Buffett sense something unusual.

But he still asked, "Please speak."

“We all know that the economy is cyclical, going through four stages: prosperity, recession, depression and recovery. According to the cyclical law, the global economy is entering, or has already entered, a recession. You said at the last charity lunch that the world economy would recover, which seems to be contrary to common sense.”

When Zhang Yang uttered the question, a look of surprise flashed across Buffett's usually calm eyes; he had never expected to be asked this question.

Can he tell the truth?

It doesn't seem like it will work!

If he were to reveal the truth about this economic recovery, global capital would abandon him, and might even target him, Buffett.

Zhang Yang, being a reborn individual, knows the cost of this economic recovery. As for Buffett, the globally recognized stock market guru, to say he didn't have insider information is pure nonsense.

When this macroeconomic question was raised, Buffett was no longer as relaxed as before, and unusually stood up and said, "Excuse me, I need to go to the restroom."

　It's the end of the month, and just like last month, for every 1000 monthly tickets, the prize pool will accumulate to 100 yuan, and three lucky winners will be drawn to receive 50 yuan each. This month, half of the prize money will be sent to the group, and the other half will be sent as chapter card red envelopes. Thank you for your support, dear readers.
