Chapter 155 The Great Battle Begins, Boss Bao Becomes a Stock Market God (Please Subscribe)

Just as Liu Xiaobao had predicted.

Although the Hong Kong stock market plunged by more than 4,000 points in a single day, such a decline was completely unprecedented.

However, when those brokerages and shareholders saw that the market index had stabilized and stopped falling, many of them began to pool their funds in an attempt to salvage the stock price of their own companies.

Of course, there were exceptions, namely the Hong Kong tycoons who knew the inside story.

Neither Li Zhaoji nor Li Jiacheng have taken any action to prop up their own company's stock price for the time being.

Because they already knew that today's stock market volatility was entirely due to Morgan Stanley's withdrawal of funds, they remained calmly at home, intending to observe the situation.

That very night, news of the Hong Kong stock market also reached the old man's ears.

Sitting with the elderly man at this moment was another person, the current leader.

The old man sighed, "In just one day, the Hong Kong stock market index dropped by more than 4,000 points. It's truly astonishing!"

"Yes, old leader, considering that our Pujiang Securities and Shenzhen Zhen Securities have been managing the market index for many years and it's only around 1,000 points, I really can't imagine how big the losses will be for Hong Kong this time!"

The old man sighed softly, then reminded us, "The losses will inevitably be enormous, but this incident in the Hong Kong stock market has served as a wake-up call for us. In the future, you must send people to pay close attention to the domestic stock market. We must drive out those foreign international financial groups as soon as we discover anything amiss. We must not allow them to grow bigger and cause trouble in the domestic stock market. Otherwise, not only will the people suffer, but the foundation of the country will also be affected."

"Yes, old leader, I will keep that in mind and never allow those ruthless conglomerates to cause trouble in China!"

The old man didn't offer any further instruction. He simply nodded, then looked up at the southern night sky and said, "I wonder how that little guy is doing now. Is he going to be battling it out with those international conglomerates?"

"Old leader, are you perhaps referring to that young man from Pujiang who mentioned me last time?"

The old man smiled and said, "That's right, it's that little guy named Xiaobao. Now those foreign international conglomerates want to take a big piece of the pie from Hong Kong before they leave, and Xiaobao is the only one we can rely on right now."

"Old boss, is that young man from Pujiang really that capable?"

The old man shook his head: "Actually, I don't know either, but with our country's current financial resources, we can't get involved at all. Even if we wanted to help Hong Kong, we are powerless. We can only take a gamble and place our bets on that Xiao Bao! However, based on my interactions with Xiao Bao, his vision and insight are extraordinary. I am certain that he is not the kind of person who fights a battle he can't win. Since he dared to make a pledge to me, I still believe in him!"

"Old boss, I heard you sent that girl from the Hu family over there this time?"

The old man chuckled: "Yes, that little girl keeps clamoring to go out and broaden her horizons, it's driving me crazy. So I just took this opportunity to send her to Hong Kong. You don't have to worry, that little girl only likes business, she won't go into politics. Even if she leaves the country, no one will criticize her father or anything."

"The old leader's considerations are very thorough; I was overthinking it!"

The old man waved his hand: "I need to rest now. You go back and handle your official business. You don't need to worry about things in Hong Kong. I'll let you know if anything happens!"

"Yes, old leader, I'll head back now. You can rest now!"

After the current leader left, the old man turned to look at the southern night sky again and murmured, "Little one, you won't let me down, will you..."

At that very moment, Liu Xiaobao, who enjoyed the great man's deep trust, was busy issuing one instruction after another in Hong Kong.

Indeed, when Liu Xiaobao realized that someone was injecting funds to boost the stock price, he immediately took action.

He knew very well that if he didn't take the money these people invested to boost the stock price, it would be taken by Morgan Stanley International.

Therefore, Liu Xiaobao had to grab as much as he could before Morgan Stanley International Fund took over. At this moment, he was focused on the overall situation and was acting as the commander-in-chief.

"352, buy!"

"523, short sell!"

"455, buy!"

"467, short sell!"

"834, buy!"

"Short sell 901!"

"1037..."

As Liu Xiaobao issued each instruction, Hu Ruoling would accurately convey each instruction.

Even though it was just running errands, Princess Hu Ruoling was doing her job without complaint.

Because she had already witnessed Liu Xiaobao's miraculous methods.

All she wants now is to help Liu Xiaobao finish this battle, so she can return to China with a large sum of money to report back to the old man.

In this way, she can not only make a contribution to the country, but also earn a great merit for her father.

So Hu Ruoling didn't complain at all; on the contrary, she was quite excited as she did the errand.

The traders were now incredibly excited, as if they had never experienced such a thrilling battle before, especially since every single instruction Liu Xiaobao gave them was correct.

If Liu Xiaobao says a stock will rise, that stock will rise; if he says a stock will fall, that stock will definitely fall.

This made those traders feel like they were working with a 'god,' which was an amazing feeling!

... ..... ....

At this moment, the traders truly worshipped Liu Xiaobao as a god, and Boss Bao became their stock god!

Therefore, those traders now not only follow the orders strictly without any conditions, but they also don't feel sleepy at all.

However, compared to everyone else, Liu Xiaobao himself has had the hardest time.

He not only had to oversee the overall situation, analyze data, and issue instructions to traders, but he also personally executed every single trade using the funds at his disposal.

At this moment, Liu Xiaobao was truly pushing his mental and physical limits, especially his mental capacity, as calculation and analysis were the most mentally taxing tasks.

However, Liu Xiaobao, like everyone else, showed no signs of fatigue or exhaustion. On the contrary, he was full of energy and high spirits.

This battle was like an exam for Liu Xiaobao, a moment for him to truly demonstrate his expertise and test his abilities.

This made Liu Xiaobao feel extremely excited. At this moment, he even felt that every cell in his body was burning, giving him inexhaustible energy and fighting spirit.

Seeing Liu Xiaobao's increasingly frenzied and energetic state, Hu Ruoling, who was in charge of running errands, was really curious. She couldn't understand why Liu Xiaobao's mental state was becoming more and more excited.

However, no matter how curious Hu Ruoling was, she knew that this was not the time to disturb Liu Xiaobao.

Therefore, Hu Ruoling simply kept her curiosity to herself and did not ask Liu Xiaobao for clarification at this time.

Thanks to the influx of funds from securities firms and shareholders, the Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong has stabilized and avoided further declines, although it has not rebounded.

Even though their money was immediately divided up by Liu Xiaobao and Morgan Stanley International Fund as soon as it entered the stock market, it still had some effect.

However, the investments of those securities firms and shareholders were too dispersed, while Liu Xiaobao and Morgan Stanley International Fund had substantial financial resources.

Therefore, the funds from securities firms and shareholders can only be considered a drop in the ocean, unable to maintain the stability of the market index for too long.

Five days later, the Hang Seng Index fell by more than 200 points again, from 7,963 points to 7,714 points.

At this point, the brokerage firms and shareholders were all frightened and stopped investing any more money in the stock market.

Because of the brokerage firms' halt in trading, listed stocks on the Hong Kong stock exchange experienced another sharp decline, further accelerating the overall market index's fall.

On that day, the Hang Seng Index fell to 7,420 points.

Realizing that there was no new capital injection into the Hong Kong stock market, Liu Xiaobao, who had been working tirelessly for five days and five nights, finally called a halt to everyone's efforts.

However, Liu Xiaobao did not let everyone return to the hotel to rest. Instead, he asked all the traders to rest temporarily in front of their computers and wait for new instructions to be given.

Although they couldn't sleep in comfortable beds, the traders, who had been battling for five days and five nights, didn't care where they slept. As soon as the tension eased, they couldn't hold on any longer and all fell asleep on their computer desks.

Like Liu Xiaobao and the others, Hu Ruoling had not slept for five days and five nights. Now that she heard that she could rest for a while, the future princess could not hold on any longer.

Just two minutes after relaying Liu Xiaobao's order, she fell asleep on the sofa in Liu Xiaobao's office.

Everyone else should rest, and Liu Xiaobao himself should rest as well.

Liu Xiaobao, in particular, worked harder than anyone else, expending a great deal of mental and physical energy. After giving Su Jie a few instructions, Liu Xiaobao also slumped down in front of the computer.

Su Jie and Long Liu were relatively more relaxed. Although they hadn't had a proper night's sleep in the past five days and nights, the five of them had taken turns resting, so they weren't as tired as Liu Xiaobao and the others.

So after Liu Xiaobao and the others fell asleep, Su Jie and his team continued to carry out their guard duties according to the original shift schedule.

Before going to sleep, Liu Xiaobao instructed Su Jie to first inform He Chaoqiong that she could deliver meals on time during this period, but not to wake everyone up. They could eat whenever they woke up.

The second point was to have Su Jie wake him up every four hours so that Liu Xiaobao could check the stock market activity and prevent Morgan Stanley International from setting traps for him while they were asleep.

Su Jie knew that Liu Xiaobao and his team were dealing with something important, so even though he felt sorry for Liu Xiaobao, he still did as Liu Xiaobao instructed.

Liu Xiaobao's concerns about Morgan Stanley International Fund are not without reason.

He previously made money with Morgan Stanley International Fund, perhaps without Morgan Stanley International Fund's knowledge.

However, this time was different. Liu Xiaobao shorted the Hong Kong stock market from the very beginning and made a fortune. The Hong Kong stock market pie is only so big, and Liu Xiaobao took a small half of it in one go, which was hard for Morgan Stanley International Fund not to notice.

Liu Xiaobao was almost certain that the traders at Morgan Stanley International Funds already knew that someone else was competing with them for Hong Kong's wealth.

In addition, over the past five days, Liu Xiaobao has been constantly battling with Morgan Stanley International Fund to plunder the funds injected by those securities firms. It is likely that Morgan Stanley International Fund now holds a grudge against Liu Xiaobao.

Although the other party is unaware that Liu Xiaobao is the one vying with them for Hong Kong's wealth, and they will not change the general direction of their evacuation plan, they might set a trap for Liu Xiaobao during this period as a form of revenge.

Meanwhile, in a five-star hotel in Hong Kong, John, the operations manager of Morgan Stanley International Fund, was furiously fuming.

"Damn it! Who stole a large sum of money that rightfully belonged to us? If I find out, I'll make sure they die!"

"John, calm down. Don't let this affect our overall plan, or you'll be the one who dies!"

A middle-aged woman, nearly fifty years old, was sitting opposite John. She calmly offered him this piece of advice.

Reminded by the woman, John calmed down. He turned to her and said earnestly, "Mrs. Mary is right. Rest assured, I won't let a small matter cause me to lose sight of the bigger picture."
