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

Chapter 185: Economic Forum to Build Reputation, Is Unity Among Retail Investors Powerful?
"Teacher Da Xiao is so cool! Thank you for calling out 'bull' for half a year, which helped me earn over a million!"

"If China has a stock market guru, his name must be Li Daxiao. If Mr. Daxiao had been born a few years earlier, there would be no need for Buffett!"

“My wife is about to give birth, and my surname is also Li. If it’s a boy, I’ll name him Li Xiaoxiao. Teacher Daxiao is the king, and my son can be the little king.”

"Da Xiao, Da Xiao, I love you like a mouse loves rice. Without your guidance, I would have missed out on this bull market!"

The moment Li Daxiao appeared, he instantly ignited the emotions of the surrounding fans, who continued to shout loudly as if they had seen a god.

The security guards, who formed a human wall with their bodies, were at a loss for words as these fanatical "Xiao students" kept pushing forward. They had to exert all their strength to barely control the situation.

Upon seeing this, the organizer's staff quickly came to Li Daxiao's side and said, "Your popularity is too high, Teacher Daxiao. If you continue to linger, there may be a certain risk of a stampede."

"Then go in first."

Li Daxiao nodded, then looked at the fans around him and said, "Everyone, please don't push. See you inside the venue."

After saying that, he walked towards the Shangri-La Hotel.

As Li Daxiao began to move, the crowd moved toward the hotel, much like worker bees following their queen bee.

Having witnessed the "Xiao Xuesheng's" madness, He Jing looked at Zhang Yang and said, "This isn't an economics expert, he's practically a celebrity."

"If you can help retail investors make money, you can also enjoy this travel privilege," Zhang Yang said, revealing the secret behind the deal.

从2009年1月的1800点开始算，只过去了7个月的时间，上证指数点位已经来到了3400点，涨幅达到了1600点。

而李大霄喊牛的时间是2月份2000点的时候，截止到7月31日交易日，涨幅也达到了1400点。

With a gain of 1400 points, the Shanghai Composite Index has nearly doubled. As long as you don't chase hot stocks, any blue-chip stock in the index could easily double in value.

If someone could double your returns, wouldn't anyone go crazy for that?
but!

It all boils down to two words: profit!

Just like the hostesses in a bar, as long as you have money, they can abandon all moral boundaries and let you enjoy the treatment of an emperor.

But if you run out of money, then sorry, the relationship is wiped out.

"咚咚-"

At that moment, someone knocked on the right-side window.

Zhang Yang glanced to the side and saw Yang Delong standing next to the car.

He then pressed the window drop button, and Yang Delong greeted Zhang Yang warmly the moment he saw him: "Good afternoon, Mr. Zhang."

"good afternoon."

Zhang Yang responded politely.

Yang Delong then noticed He Jing in the passenger seat. He felt she looked familiar and asked Zhang Yang, "Who is this?"

"He Jing, Manager He, from China Asset Management," Zhang Yang introduced as he opened the car door.

He did not stay in the car, because in an equal relationship, it would be very impolite for the other person to be standing outside the car while he was sitting comfortably inside.

"So you're a colleague from China Asset Management. It's a pleasure to meet you," Yang Delong said with a smile.

He Jing nimbly opened the car door and got out, smiling as she said, "I've long admired Manager Yang's reputation; today I'm finally meeting him in person."

"Have you heard of me?"

Yang Delong extended the topic.

He was well aware of his reputation in the financial world, and his feigned surprise was merely a way to keep the conversation going and avoid an awkward silence.

Just like visiting relatives during holidays, if you want to start a conversation, you can only ask about their grades, whether they have a partner, their salary and benefits, and their health.

If you don't ask these questions, there's really nothing to talk about with relatives you only know a little bit.

He Jing wasn't a naive and clueless girl, so she naturally knew that Yang Delong was asking on purpose. She continued the conversation by saying, "The chief strategy analyst and star public fund manager of Southern Fund. If I don't know Manager Yang, I'm afraid I've been in a fake public fund financial circle."

"Haha, you flatter me." Yang Delong smiled modestly, then asked, "Manager He, what area do you work in?"

"real estate."

He Jing answered truthfully.

"Real estate, um, real estate is good. Real estate is the core area of ​​the national 4 trillion yuan investment plan. It can be seen that Manager He is quite good at interpreting the policies above."

"Just go with the flow, we all rely on the country for our livelihood."

"Well said, go with the flow."

As the two chatted, Zhang Yang moved to the right side of the vehicle and changed the subject, asking, "How many venues are there for today's forum?"

"There are four."

As Yang Delong spoke, he glanced at the sky and said, "Let's go inside first; the summer afternoon sun can be quite intense."

Since the beginning of July, the sun in Shanghai has been getting hotter day by day. In addition, being a coastal city, it is both humid and hot outside.

"Let's go inside and talk."

Zhang Yang echoed in agreement.

He Jing: "Mm."

"Your car?"

Yang Delong glanced at the open window of the Mercedes-Benz S600. If he left it here, not to mention the problem of it getting sunburned, he was afraid that someone would vandalize it.

“I just tipped the doorman, so we can go in,” Zhang Yang said frankly.

"I see." Yang Delong nodded slightly, then turned and led the way.

The three of them walked to the hotel entrance. Zhang Yang looked at the doorman who had received his tip and instructed him, "The car keys are still in the car. Just leave them at the hotel front desk after you park the car."

"Good boss."

The hotel doorman responded quickly.

……

As they entered the Shangri-La Hotel, He Jing looked at the crowd lingering in the corridor and asked Yang Delong, "I saw Li Daxiao from Yingda Securities here earlier. Is he a guest speaker at the forum?"

"As for Li Daxiao, he should be a special guest at the main venue." Yang Delong's eyes flashed with disdain when he mentioned Li Daxiao.

In his view, this was a fraudulent expert who stumbled upon the truth by sheer luck, only capable of shouting "bull market is bullish" all day long, never analyzing for investors why the market was bullish.

"The main venue?"

"Is it so powerful?"

A look of surprise flashed across He Jing's face.

She heard from Zhang Yang last night that she was participating in a branch venue.

Those who frequently participate in exchange forums know that the main venue is the core hub of the event, undertaking the main processes and key links.

The sub-venues, on the other hand, are designed around the theme or needs of the main venue, and undertake sub-content, such as thematic discussions, parallel forums, and regional interactions, thus supplementing and extending the content of the main venue.

"The organizers only value his popularity." Yang Delong said with a disdainful tone, as if to say that Li Daxiao was unworthy of his position.

What is the topic of the main venue?

Zhang Yang inquired.

"It seems to be related to the stock market, probably discussing the future trend of A-shares."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Delong stopped and said, "We've arrived."

Looking from the entrance, Zhang Yang saw tiered seating on the right and a stage and LED screen on the left. There were five empty chairs on the stage, and the screen displayed the names of the guests…

1. Li Yining, a renowned Chinese economist and educator, was the founding dean of the Guanghua School of Management at Yenching University and is hailed as a "pioneer of the theory of shareholding system reform in China".

2. Cao Fengqi, a renowned economist and financial expert, was a key figure in promoting China's shareholding system reform and capital market development, and the founding vice dean of the Guanghua School of Management at Yenching University.

3. Shi Bo, a fund manager at Shangya Private Equity Fund, graduated from the Central University of Finance and Economics with a bachelor's degree and later obtained a master's degree in law from Yenching University. His investment focus is on leading companies in core sectors such as consumption, finance, and technology. His peak assets under management exceeded 50 billion yuan, and he has been ranked among the top ten private equity funds multiple times.

4. Hua Shichang, economist and financial expert, currently serves as the general manager of Huaguo Bank Shanghai branch.

5. Hu Maoyuan, postgraduate degree, Doctor of Engineering, senior economist and senior engineer, currently serves as Chairman of SAIC Motor.

"A gathering of big names."

Zhang Yang muttered to himself.

The appearance of Li Yining and Cao Fengqi, two heavyweight figures, significantly increased the prestige of the sub-venue.

After reading Li Yining and Cao Fengqi's resumes, He Jing couldn't help but be surprised and said, "No wonder the topic is 'China's Macroeconomic Outlook and Future Prospects'. It turns out there are big shots in charge."

Although it was a branch venue, its popularity was no less than that of the main venue, and the audience here tended to be professionals.

Yang Delong led Zhang Yang straight to the middle of the first row. When they arrived in front of Li Yining and Cao Fengqi, he introduced him, "Teachers, Zhang Yang from Wealth Research Network is here."

"..."

Zhang Yang was stunned for half a second.

What does it mean for Zhang Yang to be here?

Li Yining and Cao Fengqi want to see me?

"After much anticipation, I've finally met that old man Bao Xingwei's beloved disciple. Putting aside everything else, his demeanor is truly extraordinary."

Li Yining looked at Cao Fengqi and said.

Cao Fengqi looked Zhang Yang up and down, and nodded slightly, saying, "He is indeed good-looking, about the same as me when I was young."

Listening to their conversation, Zhang Yang reacted quickly. He did not deny his relationship with Bao Xingwei, but greeted them, saying, "Good afternoon, gentlemen."

"Hmm." Cao Fengqi glanced at He Jing beside him, then looked at Yang Delong and asked, "Hey, who is this girl?"

Yang Delong didn't rush to answer, because he didn't know He Jing either. Instead, he gestured to Zhang Yang to introduce her.

"Her name is He Jing. She was my college classmate and also a student of Dean Bao Xingwei."

As soon as Zhang Yang finished speaking, Cao Fengqi suddenly realized and said, "So it's that girl who ranked first in the simulated trading return rate. I heard that Bao Xingwei offered you a job, but you turned it down."

"You can count the number of people who can get Bao Xingwei to extend an olive branch on one hand. What are you thinking?" Li Yining asked, somewhat puzzled.

When Cao Fengqi and Li Yining revealed He Jing's background, Yang Delong suddenly realized what had happened and exclaimed in surprise, "So it was her!"

He originally thought He Jing was Zhang Yang's girlfriend, someone he brought along to broaden his horizons.

did not expect.

There are even experts here!

When asked, He Jing replied calmly, "I am very grateful to Dean Bao Xingwei for giving me this opportunity, but everyone has their own ambitions. Compared to following the established path, I prefer a different kind of life."

Li Yining and Cao Fengqi exchanged a glance but said nothing more.

They have been in contact with too many geniuses and know that these people all have one thing in common: they have a heart that dares to take risks.

People who love to experiment are not necessarily geniuses, but geniuses often love to experiment.

For example, if those "mountains" of mathematics and physics hadn't been so adventurous and had only wanted to live a routine life, the level of human industrialization would probably have regressed by decades or even centuries.

"Is Bao Xingwei still in Yanjing?"

Suddenly, Li Yining looked at Zhang Yang.

“Dean Bao is probably in Yanjing. I’ve been too busy with company matters lately and haven’t been able to speak with him on the phone,” Zhang Yang replied quickly.

"I heard your company is doing quite well? You even received investment from Alibaba."

"It was just a fluke."

"To be modest about being lucky is an understatement. Countless investors have failed because they couldn't secure investment. The fact that you've taken this step already makes you a rising star in the business world."

“You’re right. Being too modest is not good. You have to show off when you need to. We two old guys just love to show off.”

"As Chen Danqing said, people live just to show off."

Li Yining and Cao Fengqi spoke in a very youthful way, without any of the preachy tone typical of their age; instead, they sounded like middle-aged people in their thirties or forties.

……

While Zhang Yang, He Jing, Cao Fengqi, and Li Yining were talking, the main venue had already begun its discussion. Li Daxiao sat in the center of the podium, next to Zhao Danyang, Wang Yawei, and Liu Jipeng, who respectively represented the views of private equity, public funds, and economists.

Their topic today is easy to understand, set up by the organizers to lower the barrier to entry and attract retail investors. The content is:
Will the withdrawal of credit funds lead to a short-term peak in the Chinese stock market?

Wang Yawei is a bellwether for public funds. Because it was revealed in June that the public funds he manages had sold off a large amount of their assets, the organizers deliberately invited him to speak.

"In the short term, the Chinese stock market has indeed shown signs of peaking, but the capital flow trend in the past three trading days seems to indicate a new turning point. I believe the Chinese stock market should still have some room for growth."

He wouldn't dare to be bearish on A-shares in public, after all, he is a public fund manager at China Asset Management.

It's important to know that the major shareholder behind China Asset Management is Huaxin Securities, and the backer of Huaxin Securities is Huaxin Group.

Huaxin Group is a legitimate state-owned enterprise.

Publicly expressing bearish sentiment?

Feel sorry!

He doesn't want to resign yet!

Of course, it's not that being bearish will necessarily lead to being targeted, but rather that Wang Yawei has absolutely no need to warn investors about the risks. After all, the more he loses money in the stock market, the more investors are likely to buy his funds and have him manage them.

For both public and private reasons, he cannot be bearish on the market; it would do him no good.

"How long is a certain period of time?"

Zhao Danyang inquired.

Wang Yawei thought for a moment and said with a faint smile, "No one can say for sure. At present, A-shares are in a strong recovery phase."

"What do you think?"

Wang Yawei countered with a question to Zhao Danyang.

Zhao Danyang looked at Li Daxiao and changed the subject, saying, "I'm definitely bullish, but I'm curious, Mr. Li Daxiao, what's your opinion on the recent A-share market?" When the question was posed, Li Daxiao coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said, "I believe that the Chinese stock market is still in the bottom range. This round is a historic bottom. As early as February, I could smell its faint fragrance."

How do you determine the bottom?

Liu Jipeng inquired.

Without hesitation, Li Daxiao expressed his thoughts: "First of all, this bear market started in 2007 and lasted for a year. The A-share market also fell from 6000 points to 1600 points, which was almost a decapitation-like drop."

What does a decline mean?

"Undervalued!"

"Even if this bull market rises from 1600 points back to 3400 points, there are still a large number of undervalued stocks."

At this point, he said with some regret, "I have always emphasized buying good stocks, being a good person, and getting good rewards. What I want to say is to encourage everyone to buy undervalued blue-chip stocks, but many retail investors go and speculate on hot stocks, which is what pains me."

These words, delivered through the venue's sound system and the internet live stream, reached the ears of numerous retail investors, immediately sparking countless discussions.

[Little Bear Biscuit]: I'm sorry, Teacher Da Xiao, I misunderstood you. Your nose is even more sensitive than my dog's. I shouldn't have laughed at you for saying you smelled cow dung.

[Super Speedster]: From June to August, among all the financial experts and bloggers on the internet, only Teacher Da Xiao is truly reliable. He brings a new perspective every day, and it's never the same.

[Tangtang Doesn't Stay Up Late]: Questioning Teacher Daxiao, understanding Teacher Daxiao, admiring Teacher Daxiao, let's buy good stocks, be good people, reap good rewards, and enjoy a pleasant life!

[Love You Forever]: Buy good stocks, be a good person, and you'll be rewarded. I've made a mental note of this, and I'll never chase hot stocks again, sob sob!

As soon as Li Daxiao appeared in the live stream, the number of viewers instantly reached 1.9, and the number continues to climb.

In the main venue, a large majority of the stock market investors felt that Li Daxiao's words made sense and agreed with his views.

Listening to the discussions in the meeting room, Liu Jipeng seemed to have his remaining conscience awakened and asked Li Daxiao: "From 1600 to 3400 points, there are still undervalued stocks. Is it possible that their value lies in that trough?"

Wang Yawei raised his eyebrows slightly, clearly not expecting Liu Jipeng to say that.

A barely perceptible smile flickered across Zhao Danyang's lips as she looked at Li Daxiao as if watching a good show.

Upon hearing this, Li Daxiao, who was sitting in the center, immediately retorted: "No, no, no, their value hasn't returned to normal; it's purely because the market has limited funds."

"If market funds are limited, will a liquidity crisis occur?"

Liu Jipeng pressed for further details.

"There is no liquidity crisis. We can tell from the number of new accounts opened in the first half of the year that Chinese stock investors are flocking to the stock market."

Li Daxiao spoke with a strong and firm voice, each word brimming with confidence.

Before Liu Jipeng could speak, he continued, "One stock investor isn't enough to make a big winner, but what about 10, 100, 1000, or 10,000? We have 13 billion people, but only 120 million stock investors. The growth potential is enormous."

"The liquidity crisis you emphasize is only seeing the surface. You think that the resumption of IPOs and the establishment of the ChiNext board are sucking the blood out of the A-share market. But in my opinion, it is precisely because of the resumption of IPOs and the establishment of the ChiNext board that a large number of stock investors can be attracted to the market, providing a massive amount of circulating funds for the A-share market."

"If this historic bull market were to be named, I would call it the Unity Bull Market!"

"Retail investors united is amazing!!!"

Li Daxiao's phrase "Unity is strength" drew applause from hundreds of retail investors in the main venue. They seemed to have heard the sacred sound of the Great Dao and instantly attained enlightenment.

"So it's a united bull market. No wonder this bull market has lasted so long. We retail investors are awesome."

"It still has to be Teacher Da Xiao. Other so-called economic experts are all half-baked. Only Teacher Da Xiao can get to the heart of the matter."

"I used to think Mr. Li Daxiao was a fraud, but now I just want to say to him, Li Daxiao, you are the stock market god in my heart!"

"Stock market guru!!"

"Stock market guru!!"

"Stock market guru!!"

The main venue erupted in a unified cheer, a scene that even the organizers hadn't anticipated, demonstrating Li Daxiao's immense influence.

Zhao Danyang, Wang Yawei, and Liu Jipeng on stage were all very surprised to see this scene. For a moment, they wondered if they had really misunderstood Li Daxiao.
In just six months, the two major A-share indices have not only doubled, but many individual stocks have seen gains of up to 80%, and in the past two months, A-shares have continued to rise at an accelerated pace.

"Did I really miss the mark?"

Wang Yawei is already somewhat insecure.

The stock market investors at the main venue are terrifying. If, as Li Daxiao said, there is a continuous influx of funds into A-shares, then the correction wouldn't have occurred so early, because the national team would definitely have created momentum for the ChiNext market in October.

Zhao Danyang, the top private equity investor, has also experienced a subtle shift in his mindset.

Not only Wang Yawei and Zhao Danyang, but also Liu Jipeng are pondering whether "retail investors uniting can create a bull market" and whether a historic super bull market can emerge.

……

At the "China's Macroeconomic Outlook and Future Prospects" sub-forum, Li Yining, Cao Fengqi, and three other guests on stage were discussing the direction of China's economy when the shouts of a "stock market guru" suddenly came from next door, attracting their attention.

He Jing, sitting in the audience, turned slightly to Zhang Yang and lowered her voice, saying, "It's so lively next door, could it be that Buffett has arrived?"

"It's unlikely. It's too far-fetched for someone of Buffett's stature to come to China for business."

Zhang Yang responded in a low voice.

If Buffett were to attend this kind of economic forum, he would only think of one scenario: Berkshire Hathaway would go bankrupt, and he would have to run a business to pay off his debts.

But that's even more impossible. Putting aside Berkshire Hathaway's enormous financial resources, Buffett's extensive connections alone are enough to get the United States to take over.

Fortunately, the shouts soon subsided, and Cao Fengqi on the stage continued the topic: "Manager Shi just mentioned the low-carbon economy. From which aspects do you believe that China will definitely vigorously develop the low-carbon economy?"

"The EU is now advocating energy conservation, emission reduction, and green environmental protection. Developing a low-carbon economy is the ticket to cooperate with the EU."

Shi Bo paused for half a second, then continued, "Furthermore, China is currently in a period of intertwined 'high growth' and 'high consumption'."

"We support about 8% of global GDP with 19% of the world's coal, 10% of its oil, and 45% of its steel. The energy consumption per unit of steel, cement, and other industries is 10%-20% higher than the international advanced level, and the direct consequence is..."

"The number of smoggy days in northern cities during winter is increasing year by year. Some tributaries of the Yellow River have become 'soy sauce rivers' due to industrial pollution, and grasslands have also become desertified on a large scale due to excessive mining."

"A low-carbon economy is not only a ticket to EU trade, but also a shield for our domestic environment. It is an economy that is entirely beneficial and without any harm. This is my supporting logic."

"Clap clap-"

The breakout session was met with enthusiastic applause.

Many fund managers and investors are quietly taking notes.

Compared to the stock market next door, the topic here also involves futures.

“Speaking of new economic sectors that can be developed, I’ve recently heard about one called the ‘lazy economy.’ I don’t know if you’ve heard of it.” Li Yining glanced at Zhang Yang in the audience as she said this.

"Lazy economy?"

"I've never heard of it before."

Shi Bo, Hua Shichang, and even Hu Maoyuan, chairman of SAIC Motor, were puzzled, as they had never heard of this potential economic development opportunity.

Not only them, but also a large number of fund managers and investment institutions at the scene were completely bewildered, whispering among themselves.

"Lazy economy?"

"It sounds familiar, but I'm not sure where I've heard it before. What was it about?"

"Can lazy people still make a living?"

"Who says there isn't? Lazy and gluttonous people are most likely to go into business. Could Professor Li be referring to the red-light district economy?"

"You can't say that."

"Exactly, you have to experience this kind of economy firsthand; you can't discuss it in detail."

Amidst the various opinions, He Jing looked at Zhang Yang and continued in a low voice, "You seem to have mentioned this 'lazy economy' before."

"Yes, at the graduation ceremony."

Zhang Yang nodded slightly.

"What kind of economy is this?" Yang Delong asked with great curiosity.

Perhaps due to Zhang Yang's low influence, the concept of the "lazy economy" has not been widely disseminated, so many people are unaware of it.

Seeing Yang Delong's curiosity, Zhang Yang simply summarized: "It's an economic model that increases the amount of time you have at your disposal. The so-called 'lazy person' doesn't refer to a lazy person, but rather to an economy that liberates labor and redefines time."

What a coincidence!

As soon as Zhang Yang finished speaking, Li Yining suddenly changed the subject and said, "Zhang Yang, who proposed the 'lazy economy,' is also here. Why don't we ask him to share this sustainable economic model?"

Shi Bo: "Oh?"

"Zhang Yang of Caiyan.com?"

Hu Maoyuan inquired.

"Is Zhang Yang here too?" Hua Shichang glanced at the audience and indeed spotted Zhang Yang sitting in the middle of the first row.

They had all heard of Zhang Yang, after all, he was the man who received a 5000 million yuan investment from Alibaba and had dined with Warren Buffett.

The higher you go, the smaller the circle becomes, and everyone will know about any slight disturbance.

The other spectators kept searching for Zhang Yang's figure.

However, it was clear that the photographers were faster than them, and they immediately pointed their lenses at Zhang Yang. The director backstage also switched the camera to show Zhang Yang on the LED screen.

"That's really flamboyant!"

"It really is Zhang Yang, the CEO of Caiyan.com!"

"I heard he's only 22 years old this year, maybe 23 at most. He got top-tier resources from Alibaba right after starting his business, and even had dinner with Buffett. So he's the one who came up with the idea of ​​the 'lazy economy'?"

"I remember now, at the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics graduation ceremony, Zhang Yang proposed the 'lazy economy,' and Professor Li Yining suddenly brought it up. Does this mean that the country is going to develop in this direction?"

"You know what, it's really possible!"

"Quickly write it down, quickly write it down!"

Li Yining and Cao Fengqi are both senior members of the national financial think tank and are the cornerstones of China's capital market.

When they talk about the "lazy economy," it takes on a whole different meaning.

……

And at the same time.

the other side.

The financial editorial department of Caiyan.com.

Because internet companies need to provide services 24/7, and weekends are the most likely days for important policy documents to be released, the financial editorial team at Caiyan.com operates on a dual-track system.

What is the dual-track system?
To put it simply, we divided the editorial team into two groups: one responsible for 1, 3, 5, and 7, and the other responsible for collecting financial news from 2, 4, and 6.

Every week, the 246 team switches to a 1357 work schedule to ensure that Caiyan.com can produce content normally while also taking into account employees' holidays.

Zhang Lingchuan, a financial editor assigned to collect information from the Lujiazui Economic Forum, initially didn't care. But when he heard his company's CEO's name called out during the live broadcast and his face appeared in the live stream, he suddenly exclaimed, "Holy crap! CEO Zhang is here too?"

"Mr. Zhang?"

"What, Mr. Zhang?"

Several colleagues approached, and when they saw Zhang Yang appear in the live broadcast room of the economic forum, they all exclaimed a phrase from the national treasure.

For a while.

More and more editors are watching.

Hearing the commotion coming from the open office area, supervisor Zeng Qingfeng immediately came out of his private office and scolded, "What are you all doing gathered together? Have you finished your work?"

After a short while, the editors returned to their workstations, no longer daring to discuss it.

Zeng Qingfeng walked to Zhang Lingchuan's desk with a stern face. Just as he was about to reprimand him, he suddenly saw Zhang Yang's face appear on the computer screen.

"I wipe?"

He was shocked.

Is your boss's business so diverse?
Surprised as he was, he quickly recovered and said, "Get back to work. Contact the operations department later and get it on the front page."

"Good supervisor."

Zhang Lingchuan nodded quickly.

In situations like this, they have to put it on the front page, after all, Zhang Yang is the founder of Caiyan.com and can decide their fate.

At this moment, not only the financial research team of Caiyan.com, but also the financial editorial teams of Eastmoney, Tonghuashun, Sina Finance and Penguin Finance were shocked. Zhang Yang actually went to the Lujiazui Economic Forum. How should they publicize this?

Avoid him?
Should we skip this?

But if we do that, what if the message we're conveying is useful but our website doesn't? Wouldn't that discourage existing users?

The financial editor, unable to make a decision, immediately reported to his supervisor. The supervisor, seeing that it involved Zhang Yang and seemed to be promoting a competitor, reported it to an even higher level.

The news reached Shen Jun, the CEO of Eastmoney, who frowned and said, "He's actually going out to do business and market himself? Zhang Yang, that guy."

"Boss, do you think we should block this news to prevent the other side from succeeding in their scheme?" Vice President Tao Bin asked.

"No!"

Shen Jun frowned and said in a deep voice, "Zhang Yang is a very cunning person. Don't underestimate him because of his young age; he's full of bad intentions."

"So, Mr. Shen, what do you mean?"

Tao Bin asked cautiously.

Shen Jun thought for a moment and said, "Let's see if what he said has any value. If it does, then we'll stop promoting it. If not, then we'll just ignore his statement and absolutely not give Caiyan.com even a single bit of traffic."

"President Shen is wise!"

Tao Bin gave a thumbs up.

It's not just Eastmoney; the decision-makers at other financial websites have made the same choice, not wanting to share even a tiny bit of exposure with Caiyan.com.

At the same time, Bao Xingwei, who was far away in Yanjing, immediately instructed his assistant Cheng Hongfa to open a live broadcast room upon learning that Zhang Yang was participating in an economic forum to boost his reputation in the industry.

As the live stream footage appeared, his eyes widened in surprise. "No way! Why are those two old guys, Li Yining and Cao Fengqi, here too? Are they trying to poach my guys?"

(End of this chapter)
