Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

"Master Chen, I'm really sorry. Can I take this call first?" Asking in a polite tone, Wei Suo even showed his cell phone to Chen Xiaobei.

"This is a business call…"

Three characters were shown on the screen, Shi Haoxiang!

"Go and answer the call."

Chen Xiaobei nodded his head and kept his ears open to listen to the conversation. With permission, Wei Suo answered the call. He then changed to his regular tone.

"Boss Shi, you are calling to ask about the trade, right?"

"Yes! That's right! My Xi Xiang Entertainment's stock price is really low now! Should I start to buy all the stocks?" New chaptᴇrs are published on Noᴠelꜰire.nᴇt

"What's the rush? I have told you that the price of the stock can go as low as ten yuan! That is our final goal! Considering that a lot of individual investors have not started selling their stocks, you are going to lose at least thirty percent of the profit if you buy in all the stocks now! By then, we will be treated as laughing stock by other companies! Are you trying to destroy my reputation?"

"Boss Wei, you have misunderstood my question! I was just asking. You can't blame me for being nervous as I've invested all my money in it! From this second onwards, I will follow whatever you ask me to do!"

"Okay. Just wait patiently for now. After a week, I'm confident enough to lower the stock price of Xi Xiang Entertainment to ten yuan! When the time comes, I will inform you to buy all the stocks!"

"Great! Splendid! I thank you in advance! Money just keeps pouring in when I listen to you!"

Seemingly, Shi Haoxiang was delighted. He could not wait to show his gratitude to Wei Suo. Impatiently, Wei Suo hung up the call. He then turned around and looked at Chen Xiaobei with a smile on his face.

"I'm really sorry for making you wait for me to answer the call!"

"I have a question. Xi Xiang Entertainment belongs to Shi Haoxiang himself. Why did he want to lower the stock price of his company?"

"He wants to make a quick buck. Originally, the stock price of Xi Xiang Entertainment was eighty yuan and Shi Haoxiang has stocks worth two hundred million in his possession. That's sixteen billion yuan in total! Selling all his stocks will cause the stock price of Xi Xiang Entertainment to drop instantaneously! After causing panic in the market, all the individual investors will start to sell their stocks in hand as well, resulting in making the stock price even lower."

"So, when the stock price drops to ten yuan, Shi Haoxiang will begin to buy all Xi Xiang Entertainment stocks that are available in the market! With that being said, he needs two billion to purchase all two hundred million stocks! In other words, he can gain fourteen billion yuan after this buying and selling process!"

Immediately, Chen Xiaobei frowned after hearing Wei Suo's explanation.

"Forcing individual investors to sell their stocks to fill his own stomach is so heartless! So, people like you are the one that makes all those individual investors go broke and jump to their deaths!"

"Ugh… Technically speaking, you are right… This is the rule of the market! Actually, if those individual investors are not greedy, they would not sell everything to the market. In other words, they would not be forced to a dead end!" Wei Suo quickly explained himself.

"Okay. It makes sense to me. Don't worry. I ain't a saint or cynic! Going against those big shots that obtain their money regardless of morality is not my goal. I can't control people's greed. End of discussion."

"Alright."

After hearing Chen Xiaobei's comment, Wei Suo was relieved since he was not angry at him.

"I have a question. What if someone buys all the stocks before Shi Haoxiang? What will the ending be?"

"Easy. If someone managed to buy all these two hundred million stocks, the person will become the biggest stockholder of Xi Xiang Entertainment, a.k.a the CEO! On the other hand, Shi Haoxiang will be kicked out of the company, leaving him with nothing!

"Of course, incidents like this don't usually happen because we have done all the preparation work to make sure everything goes smoothly! Firstly, we spread a lot of fake negative news about Xi Xiang Entertainment to let others think that they are holding some bad stocks. This is to make sure no one is dumb enough to buy those bad stocks!"

"What if I want to buy all the bad stocks?"

With a grim smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei was planning something in mind.

"Master Chen… That's a joke right?"

Wei Suo was baffled.

"I'm not joking! There is some personal issue between me and him! I will definitely not miss this golden opportunity to screw up his life!"

"This… This is really difficult for me… All the things that I told you just now were private and confidential! I thought you were just asking casually. That was why I told you everything…"

"Don't you worry… I will never tell others about this matter! Your company's reputation is safe with me! Other than that, as long as you help me become the biggest shareholder of Xi Xiang Entertainment, you and I will become best friends! The pills that I concoct will always be reserved for you first. And, you can enjoy 50% off for all my pills permanently!"

"T-T-This… Master Chen, you are tempting me to do something illegal! The offer is just too damn attractive…"

"I'm always generous towards my friends. Of course, I will not force you to do anything. Do you want to become friend with me or Shi Haoxiang? It's all up to you now!"

"Isn't the choice obvious enough? Even an idiot will choose to make friend with Master Chen! Let's do this! From today onwards, Master Chen will be the guiding light of my life!"

"Okay! You don't have to return the 1.5 billion that you owe me earlier. I will transfer another one billion to your account! Any extra money from purchasing the stocks is your commission! I want results in a week! Is there a problem?"

"No problem! Definitely not a problem! Shi Haoxiang gave me complete control over his stocks! Screwing with him is easier than squashing an ant!"

"Great!"

Chen Xiaobei nodded his head and transferred one billion to his account without any hesitation. He then said again, "I still have 3.9 billion in my bank account. Do let me know if there is anything good for me to invest in!"

"Yes! I'll bear that in mind!"

After that, Chen Xiaobei left Tiansheng Finance. Initially, he was planning to return to Bei Xuan Faction to talk with Li Xiang. However, a message was delivered to his cell phone when he went into his car.
