Chapter 73 Yin Group (14) (1st update + 2nd update + 7.6w nutrient solution 3rd update) [VIP]
【What a capitalist. 】
[Rich man, you have learned a lot about college. ]
【It is a blessing for college students to have you. 】
[My eyes are filled with tears. College students can do anything as long as they are given money, except advanced mathematics. If they can't do it, they just can't do it.]
[I started to wonder what the rich guy does in real life, and why he knows a little bit of everything…]
[If I could be like my rich friend, my dad would wake up laughing in his dreams. ]
[I second the proposal. Brother Chao, show me some of your business warfare skills.]
【Give me some too. 】
【Break point +1】
【Break point +2】
[Wait, don't be so quick to argue. Are all the investors who blindly invested in this project from the business world? Is there no one who knows nothing about this like me? Is there anyone who can tell me what short selling is? ]
[Back to the previous point, it wasn’t like this at the beginning. Later, I don’t know who posted a note I took on learning business warfare at a foundation on the forum. It somehow became a hot topic, and then investors who didn’t know how to do business warfare came to take the free practical class…]
…
On the screen, Lu Changfeng also wanted to ask this question.
"Boss," he said with a pair of blank eyes, "what is short selling?"
"Short selling means..." Bai Jinshu was busy publishing part-time job information in other cities. He didn't even raise his head and tapped Xiao Wu with his chin. "He's a financial reporter. Ask him."
"Brother Xiaowu, what is short selling?" Lu Changfeng was really curious.
Xiao Wu has been shocked ever since he heard that his boss Chao Yougan was going to short sell. Ever since they entered this space, Chao Yougan's business warfare methods have always been very down-to-earth. Apart from that outrageous mercenary, whether it is pressing the elevator or buying hot searches, or personally going offline to observe the dissemination nodes and time the water army, these are things that anyone can do as long as they have the connections.
But short selling seems to sound very powerful, right?
An inexplicable sense of excitement rose in Lu Changfeng's heart.
Is the high-end business war finally coming?
He had completely forgotten that he came here to explore the rules...
And he has no regrets, short selling is indeed a very high-end method.
——Compared to occupying competitors' elevators.
Xiao Wu: "Short selling is the opposite of long selling. Long selling is hoping that the stock price will rise, while short selling is hoping that the stock price will fall."
"Suppose you want to buy a stock now, then your expectation is that the stock will rise, so you buy it at a low point and sell it at a high point, so that you can make money from the difference," he thought for a moment and explained, "while short selling is the opposite, your expectation is that the stock will fall, so you borrow the stock from someone who plans to hold it for a long time at a high point, then sell it at a high point, and then buy it back from the person who borrowed it from you after it falls to a low point, so that you can also make money from the difference."
Lu Changfeng thought thoughtfully: "It sounds similar?"
One is to buy low and sell high, the other is to sell high and buy low. The core essence is to make money from the rise and fall of stocks.
“No, it’s very different,” Xiao Wu shook his head. “Going long means limited losses and unlimited gains, while going short means unlimited losses and limited gains.”
He gave an example: "Suppose Yin's stock price is 2 yuan per share now, and a long-term institution buys 10,000 shares. Later, Yin's reputation is back, and the stock price rises to 10 yuan. Then the difference per share is 8 yuan. If 10,000 shares are sold at the high point of 10 yuan, the net profit at this time is 80,000 yuan."
This is easy to understand, Lu Changfeng understood it.
"So if you want to short, let's say Yin's stock is at its peak of 10 yuan, and you borrow 10,000 shares from a shareholder, and then sell them. At this time, you have 100,000 yuan in your hand, and you hope that the stock will fall to 2 yuan, so you only need to spend 20,000 yuan to buy it. At this time, not counting the interest on the borrowed stock, you will make 80,000 yuan."
Lu Changfeng nodded.
He had never been exposed to this before, and it sounded quite interesting.
"If you make a mistake in your judgment when going long and you buy 10,000 shares at 2 yuan, even if the stock price drops further, the most you will lose is only 20,000 yuan, because there is no more room for it to fall," Xiao Wu continued, "but if you make a mistake in your judgment when going short and you buy 10,000 shares at 100,000 yuan, and the stock price rises instead of falling, then you will need to buy back the 10,000 shares at a higher price and return them to the shareholders. But the increase in price will not reach its limit. In extreme cases, it may double or even increase by dozens of times. If you don't stop in time, your loss will not be just 20,000 yuan, but very likely 2 million or 20 million."
"Hiss..." Lu Changfeng took a breath of cold air. Although he didn't quite understand it, it sounded like going long would be more stable.
Compared to going long, going short sounds very scary.
——It makes his boss, who is about to short sell, seem even cooler.
The comments clearly felt the same way:
[What about the previous question about short selling? This is probably what I meant. ]
[Oh no, I actually understood it. ]
[As soon as I came in, I heard people talking about shorting and longing. The Yin Group project is a business war practice online course that lives up to its reputation...]
[This is easy to understand. It is not difficult to understand shorting and longing. The difficult part is how to do it and how to accurately judge the direction of the stock. This is the difficulty. ]
[And short selling is generally accompanied by long selling, which is called risk hedging, to ensure that if there is a leak on one side, you will not lose everything. ]
[Yes, short selling is usually accompanied by risk hedging, and the entry and exit times are also very important. Don’t touch the mines at home. This is different from the previous business war tips. If you make a mistake in judgment, tens of millions of dollars will be invested in nothing. We can just watch the rich guys show off their skills in the live broadcast room.]
【Those who dare to short sell are big shots...Short selling leads to unlimited losses, and many people have lost money on it. Especially for a large enterprise like Yinshi with many big shot shareholders behind it, if there is no premise that the stock will be suspended due to financial fraud, and if you short sell based on the prediction that the stock price will fall, it is very likely that the two sides will end up in a stalemate, and short selling will eventually become a short squeeze, resulting in even greater losses.】
[It is basically impossible for laymen and retail investors to make money with stocks, and experts can barely guarantee that they will not lose money. Those who come to learn business warfare should put this in mind. ]
[? I thought everyone in this livestream room was just like me, a business idiot. Why do you all know so much? Do you even know what a hole is? ]
[I feel like I've been cheated. Before the final exam, everyone said they were done and didn't review, but I was the only one who really didn't feel like reviewing! ]
[Because that’s how my family got messed up.]
[…Then it’s alright.]
…
On the screen, Xiao Wu obviously also understands this truth
"You...are you really planning to short Yin's?" After he finished his explanation, he hesitated for a few seconds and looked at Chao Yougan.
"Hmm," Chao Yougan responded with a nasal sound, and his fingers scrolled across the screen of his phone. He quickly sent the part-time job information to all the second-hand trading groups and substitute teaching groups. After the message was sent, his phone was silent for less than half a minute. Then, there were crazy friend requests and conversation pop-ups. "Any questions? Ask later."
Bai Jinshu was in a good mood and threw his phone to Lu Changfeng next to him: "I have received the appropriate number of friend requests. Tell them that you are a staff member of Yin's. Due to the food safety incident yesterday, Yin's has launched crisis public relations. We are short of staff and need to recruit temporary workers to go to major offline distribution outlets to count sales."
"If they have questions, just code your work ID and send it to them, then say that the relationship between Yinshi and the distributor is tense and this is internal statistics. If others ask, just say that you are writing a paper and so you came to the supermarket to collect first-hand data."
"Boss," Lu Changfeng took the phone and flipped through the endless list of friend requests, "How many people are there?"
"About a hundred," Bai Jinshu thought for a moment, "You send a private message first, then search for all the large supermarkets in H City on the map software, and then let these college students assign their own orders to which supermarket according to their address. Draw up a table and give everyone a number."
The expression on his face and his tone were as matter-of-fact as if Lu Changfeng was his business assistant, not a member of the Foundation's exploration team: "I don't need to teach you the rest, right?"
Lu Changfeng: "Still... still want it?"
What's left? Don't you need to teach him?
Bai Jinshu looked at him with a look of regret: "Divide into groups. Each large supermarket has at least 6-8 manual checkouts and 3-5 self-service checkouts. If one person is responsible for 2-3 checkouts, a large supermarket will need 4-6 people, and these 4-6 people will form a group. Open the computer and pull out two forms. One is to number the supermarkets and the college students under the supermarkets. Each supermarket has 4-6 people in a group; the other is a list of Yin's products, including all products including dairy and meat products, with notes on the items and the average customer price. Send them the form at the back and ask them to complete the statistics every day according to the format. After that, they will integrate it within the group, and then the group will hand it over to you, and you will integrate it."
"Boss, boss!" Lu Changfeng interrupted him quickly, "You speak too fast, slow down, this is too complicated... I will remember it slowly."
Before his mind had processed the previous sentence, the next one came out.
"Is this complicated?" His boss Chao Yougan repeated, and then said, "I have already taught you step by step. If you were in my shoes, I would have fired you long ago."
"I...I try hard?" Lu Changfeng said weakly while sending a message on his phone, "But I don't know how to create a table, I don't know how to use Excel..."
Chao Yougan: "You don't even know how to use Excel. How did you learn it in college? Why on earth would I hire you?"
Lu Changfeng: "Because... because..."
Because they came here to explore unknown space?
You hired me because I'm a high-end exploration team member and healer?
Aren’t they here to explore the rules?
Why does he need to know how to use Excel?
Isn't he a member of the exploration team?
Guan Hongyan on the opposite side covered her face, unable to bear the sight.
"Let me do it," she said, holding her forehead with her hand, "I can build the table."
She has completely accepted the setting that in this copy, Chao Yougan and the Yin family have a grudge against each other.
He really wanted to kill Yin.
I really want to.
"Look at them," Bai Jinshu was very satisfied with the new labor force, and turned to pua Lu Changfeng, "You can't even use Excel, how are you going to enter the society?"
After he said this, he looked at Xiao Wu across from him and asked, "What did you want to ask just now?"
Xiao Wu: "...No, I don't want to ask anymore."
He originally wanted to tell Chao Yougan that short selling was not such a simple matter, and a company as large as Yin's could not be done simply by short selling. However, after going through this series of processes, it was obvious that Chao Yougan was not doing it on a whim.
He really intended to kill Yin.
"No, just ask," Bai Jinshu left everything to Lu Changfeng and Guan Hongyan, and leaned back comfortably, "Ask any questions you have. Good communication is the beginning of smooth cooperation."
Xiao Wu: “Really?”
Bai Jin said: "Really."
"What exactly do you do?" Xiao Wu's tone was full of doubt. "Isn't it really a competitor of Yin's or some research company?"
"No," Bai Jinshu shook his head, his eyes full of innocence, "I'm just a second-generation rich man who has nothing to do and is now working in the media industry."
Xiao Wu: ...I don’t believe you at all.
Just like what Chao Yougan did, he said he was an ordinary rich second generation, and he took off his head and kicked it for the opponent.
Chao Yougan is a man who quit his family company to run some weird self-media. He is simply toxic.
With this money for short and long, why do you want to do self-media...
Xiao Wu was speechless for a moment.
The silence lasted until Monday morning.
The vigorous food safety event that took place over the weekend seemed to have never happened. After returning to work on Monday, there was no more disturbance except for a few gossips from colleagues. Xiao Wu handled his work as usual and walked towards the place where the ingredients were counted and prepared. When he went there, he saw the other three people already waiting there.
Chao Yougan, the rich second-generation, was wearing the same light blue work clothes as everyone else. His white hair shone brightly in the sun. He was talking to someone and yawning while looking up.
Judging from his appearance, he doesn't look like the kind of person who can take out tens of millions to short Yin's company in a matter of minutes!
This is even more deceptive than the appearance of those landlords in Province G who wear flip-flops and big vests but own more than a dozen buildings to collect rent.
Xiao Wu silently slandered a few words in his heart and walked towards the direction of the three people.
After walking over, I found that the person standing in front of Chao Yougan was a very beautiful girl. She was holding a glass of iced American coffee to reduce swelling and chatting with Chao Yougan while drinking.
She is the kind of beauty that can be spotted at a glance in a crowd, one of the most beautiful ones, and someone who might be asked for her contact information by a scout when she walks on the street.
Employees from other factories around here occasionally cast their glances here. Xiao Wu took a quick look and saw that 80% of them were quietly paying attention to this side.
Unfortunately, around her, anyone passing by would be treated as a background board. Under such suppression of beauty, Chao Yougan's face could still hold its own, which made Xiao Wu so angry that he swallowed another lemon.
It's so sour. If God doesn't give us a chance to live, why would some people have rich families, good looks, good luck and the ability to trade stocks?
Isn't it enough that God opened a door for him? He also needs to open a window, build a balcony, open a skylight, and finally install a floor-to-ceiling window?
The girl standing in front of Chao Yougan had big wavy light chestnut hair and sparkling diamond earrings on her ears. She looked sparkling in the sun. She was wearing a light green flower-bud skirt that was completely different from the uniform work clothes in the factory. The hem of the skirt stopped just above her knees, revealing a pair of straight long legs.
Seeing him coming over, the girl said, "Brother Chao, are you guys going to work? I won't bother you anymore."
"No hurry," Chao Yougan shook his head, "The truck that delivers the materials hasn't arrived yet. We'll need to check the order later when the truck arrives."
Lu Changfeng came back from the front sign-in area, and when he saw Xiao Wu, he waved and called him "Brother Xiao Wu". Xiao Wu walked over, pointed at the girl and whispered, "Who is this? From the live broadcast department?"
Anyone who can dress like this and put on makeup during working hours in Yin's Park is definitely not from the factory, nor is he an employee of the headquarters who has a dress code requirement. After thinking about it, the only option is the live broadcast department.
"Yes, this is my friend Xia Yi, who is in charge of DY's live broadcast in the live broadcast department." Lu Changfeng nodded and introduced.
As early as Saturday, when they met Xiao Wu again at the ranch, everyone discussed how to introduce Xia Yi, Zhou Ji and Zhang Long, whom Xiao Wu had not met yet.
After all, if all eight of them are from self-media, then there are too many people. It sounds a bit strange. How could there be so many people from self-media conducting undercover investigations? Didn’t you see that even for the professional Green River Evening News, Xiao Wu is the only investigative reporter?
There are now five of them who have appeared in front of Xiao Wu, and he can barely fool them by saying they are outsiders and don't know how to be undercover, but if there are eight of them, it would be difficult to fool them.
"Your friend?" Xiao Wu couldn't help but glance at Xia Yi again, "Why doesn't your friend join the entertainment industry or become a model? How much money can he make by doing live streaming at Yin's?"
He didn't believe that someone with this kind of looks had never been spotted by a scout.
"Her family asked her to do a more stable job," Lu Changfeng laughed it off, "and she herself has no interest in the entertainment industry."
They are all members of the exploration team. They joined Yin Corporation to explore the rules. How could Xia Yi possibly go into the entertainment industry?
"Is that so?" Xiao Wu couldn't help but comment: "That's a pity."
After all, being this beautiful is a genetic lottery, and it's really rare.
"By the way, why is the live broadcast department here?" Xiao Wu suddenly remembered, "Aren't we in the factory area?"
If he remembered correctly, the live broadcast department usually broadcast in a tent set up at the headquarters, right? Even for crisis public relations on weekends, they broadcast live in front of the warehouse in the factory area.
This is the shipping area for transporting prepared materials. A little further in is the assembly line. It doesn't look like they can come here for live broadcast, right?
"Oh," Lu Changfeng knew about this. "Xia Yi said that in order to show that there were no problems with their assembly line process, Yin's specially opened several 24-hour live broadcast rooms on various platforms to broadcast the assembly line machine operations in turn."
This is what Xia Yi said herself when the three of them came here and met her just now.
"Then on the first day, in order to generate some buzz, we asked the anchors from the live broadcast department to walk around the workshop with the cameras after they installed the fixed cameras."
He pointed at a few people who were wearing clothes that were obviously different from those in the factory and said, "Look, those are the ones who are installing the cameras. When we start taking orders, the live broadcast will begin. Just now, Master Wang came over and told us to order faster and not drag it out until noon, otherwise it will be inconvenient for the live broadcast department to come out."
While the two were talking, the milk tanker trucks carrying the materials arrived. The drivers parked the trucks at the designated unloading locations. The workers who had been waiting for a long time came forward to take over the unloading and transportation. The interns outside came forward with the clearance lists in their hands and matched them one by one with the delivery orders from the drivers.
Since the vehicle carrying the spare parts had arrived, Xia Yi waved to Bai Jinshu, trotted to her colleagues in her department in a pair of high heels, squatted down and let her assistant help her tidy up her hair, then clipped a small microphone to her collar and entered the factory.
Xiao Wu was still thinking about her, and when he was counting the receipts, he asked, "Chao Yougan, what does your friend's family do?"
"Xia Yi's family?" Bai Jinshu made up a story. "I don't know much about it, but she's not short of money. She and I were classmates in college."
"Oh, you are alumni," Xiao Wu asked while counting, "Which school are you from?"
"We had different undergraduate degrees, but we got to know each other when we were exchange students abroad and we were both Chinese. You wouldn't understand even if I told you." Bai Jin said to deceive.
"International students, they are so amazing..." Xiao Wu sighed a few times, but he could tell the nonsense in Chao You's words and didn't ask any more questions.
But the topic about Xia Yi is not over yet.
When the four of them finished counting the documents and were checking the quantity and submitting them, several interns from the factory next door ran over, hooked their arms around You Zhi's neck, and said with a chuckle, "Tell me, where did you meet the beautiful lady from the live broadcast department? That's not fair, brother."
You Zhi rarely hangs out with Bai Jin, Shu Lu and Chang Feng. His social circle is mostly among interns. He was hugged by several familiar interns and said in a pleading manner, "I don't know him, my friend knows him."
"Who is your friend?" A tall boy next to him lowered his voice, "The one with the scar on the left? The one in the middle with glasses? Or the one with dyed hair on the right?"
"Brother Chao knows her," You Zhi said helplessly, "Brother Chao and she were classmates studying abroad."
"Oh my god, studying abroad," another boy sighed, "Is live streaming so competitive now?"
"You know shit," the tall boy slapped him on the back of the head, "Can our Yin's live broadcast department compare to those outside? Didn't you see the live broadcast that all the members of the live broadcast department went out for this weekend... Tsk tsk tsk, they were all top-notch beauties. I doubt our company will hire anyone who isn't pretty enough."
"It's just that our company's live broadcast department can't retain people. The anchors quit after staying for a long time. We must seize this opportunity quickly!"
You Zhi was squeezed in the middle by three people, with men on both sides. He couldn't stand it and shook his head: "If you want to chat, go chat somewhere else. Why are you squeezing me?"
"No, no," the tall boy put his arm around his shoulders and whispered mysteriously, "Hey... buddy, can I ask you for a favor?"
"What?" You Zhi asked vigilantly.
"That...the beautiful lady in the live broadcast department, can I get her WeChat?" the boy asked shyly.
You Zhi: "...I'm not familiar with her and haven't added her on WeChat. Only Brother Chao has her contact information."
He did have Xia Yi's WeChat, but they were not really native to this space, and these boys were interns who knew nothing about it. From any perspective, there was no need to provide contact information.
"Then...then let me ask Brother Chao?" the tall boy said unwillingly.
He wanted to pat Chao Yougan's shoulder mysteriously, and just when his hand was about to touch Chao Yougan's shoulder, he was met with a cold look.
The young boy with red lips and white teeth, who looked like a minor, glanced at him coldly, with his white hair hanging at the corners of his eyes, as sharp as a blade.
The tall boy paused for a moment.
"Forget it, forget it, I won't bother Brother Chao anymore," he said frankly, taking his documents and running to his office in the factory. "I'm leaving now, see you later, buddy."
Only after several people from the factory next door left did You Zhi heave a sigh of relief and catch up with the people in front of him.
But Monday’s exploration wasn’t over yet.
When the four of them finished checking the documents and came out, it was lunch time. The exploration team members gathered at a table. Li Tao said with a serious expression: "The workstations that were occupied in the accounting department became empty after a weekend."
"Yesterday, when Zhou Ji and I were pretending to be a couple, Sister Liu made a special effort to wink at me in the tea room and said that the colleague who was transferred away was promoted, and her husband was promoted as well. You two are just overthinking. Are you relieved now?"
Li Tao pursed her lips and said, "I looked through the work badge, but couldn't find out who that seat belonged to. But I suspect it was Wu Yaoyao's seat, because that workstation had been empty for the past week and was suddenly vacated this week."
She suspected that the position was Wu Yaoyao's previous position and she was going to be transferred.
Everyone's heart tightened.
The process of Wu Yaoyao's transfer was very similar to that of Accountant Fan. The only difference was that Accountant Fan was transferred along with her husband when he was promoted, while Wu Yaoyao was transferred along with her husband when she was promoted.
"Can I ask where you are being transferred to?" Guan Hongyan asked.
"Sister Liu doesn't know either," Li Tao and Zhou Ji looked at each other and shook their heads. "Sister Liu said that this transfer order was not announced publicly. She also got it from others. She told us because she wanted us to feel at ease and not think about anything else."
It is not a public transfer order yet.
This sounded very wrong. Wu Yaoyao was the center of all the clues they had so far, whether it was the strange baby, or the fact that she was like two different people before and after joining the company, or the bizarre death of Accountant Fan's husband less than a month after he was transferred to another place, these were all breakthroughs discovered around her.
Once Wu Yaoyao is transferred away, won’t this connection be broken?
Moreover, if this transfer happens, Xiao Zhao will probably be in great danger.
Guan Hongyan frowned and thought for a while: "Have all the things on the workstation been cleared? Can we find an opportunity to meet Wu Yaoyao? No matter what, we have to find out about her and her best friend Accountant Fan."
"It's cleared," Li Tao shook her head. "It couldn't be emptier. It's clear that they don't want her to appear in front of everyone again."
Zhou Ji also shook his head, fearing that Wu Yaoyao would never see him again.
"Sister Yan, we can't contact Wu Yaoyao, can we contact Xiao Zhao?" Lu Changfeng suddenly remembered, "Although we don't have Wu Yaoyao's contact information, Brother Xiao Wu added Xiao Zhao and Bin Ruying when he went to the ranch last week!"
"Okay," Guan Hongyan cheered up, "Then go find Xiao Wu this afternoon and see if you can contact Xiao Zhao through him. If you can, ask them where they are being transferred to. It would be even better if you can find a reason to meet with them."
This concludes the exchange of information for the morning.
Xia Yi came hurriedly in high heels, attracting the attention of the entire cafeteria. When everyone was talking, a phone call popped up from her.
Xia Yi gestured apologetically to everyone and went outside to answer the phone. When she came back, everyone had finished the discussion. Guan Hongyan told her the final conclusion again, and Xia Yi nodded to indicate that she understood.
Li Tao asked with concern: "What happened when you answered the phone just now?"
"Work problem," Xia Yi spread her hands helplessly, "There was a problem with the live broadcast photography this morning. It seems that the transmission is not appropriate or there is a problem with the equipment. The pictures in several live broadcast rooms have been blurry. Sister Lily called just now and asked us to make another trip this afternoon."
This is such an unexpected disaster.
Everyone at the round table instantly had sympathy in their eyes.
The live broadcast department seemed to be cursed. Yesterday, Chao You did all kinds of bad things, including sending pornographic pictures to the crisis public relations group and asking the entire team to redo work. This morning, there was a camera problem due to force majeure, so everyone had to redo work again.
As she had to appear on camera in the afternoon, Xia Yi ate a little and did not dare to eat more. The area she was in charge of happened to be Bai Jinshu's factory. After lunch, the four of them walked towards the factory together. The three people who were traveling with Xia Yi received a lot of attention along the way.
When they arrived at the factory, Xia Yi went to make up for the broadcast, while Bai Jinshu and the other two went to find Xiao Wu when they were about to get off work to see if they could contact Wu Yaoyao's husband Xiao Zhao through him.
Xiao Wu was still absent-minded on the assembly line. When he saw the three people waving at him in front of the French window, he perked up and asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem with the documents this morning?"
"No," Lu Changfeng spoke first, "Brother Xiaowu, did you add Xiao Zhao's WeChat when you went to the ranch last time?"
"Yes, I added it," Xiao Wu was a little puzzled, "What's the matter?"
"Xiao Zhao has been transferred to a branch company," Bai Jinshu said, "We suspect this incident may be related to Yin's financial report. They may have transferred some people related to this from the headquarters through transfer orders so that they can manipulate the R&D department."
He said it seriously, as if it were true.
Xiao Wu frowned when he heard this: "Then I'll ask him later on the pretext of wanting to know more about the R&D department and see if I can find out where he's going. This transfer order is too weird. He's been transferred away for only a few days. Why is it so urgent?"
"Wait a moment," he looked up at the time above his head, "I still have ten minutes to get off work here. I'll take off my dust-proof suit and come out to talk to you while we walk."
Several people nodded outside and waited until Xiao Wu got off work. He came out of the production workshop, lowered his head and typed something on his phone. Seeing the people waiting at the door, Xiao Wu looked up and said, "I told the headquarters about this matter. The editor-in-chief also asked the mysterious person who brought the tip-off whether the branch that was transferred to also had accounting problems."
Bai Jinshu nodded.
"And this Xiao Zhao," Xiao Wu frowned in embarrassment, "I actually contacted him a few days ago, but he never replied to my WeChat. If I contact him again now, I may not get a reply. Besides, the financial report of the branch is internal information and is not disclosed to the public. Don't have too much hope for it."
He was typing on his phone as he spoke, occasionally looking up and then looking down again. It seemed that he was in contact with the headquarters.
Xiao Wu was walking and suddenly stopped when he looked up.
"Fuck," he quickly stepped back behind Lu Changfeng, "Why are there media interviewing in front of us?"
On the main road leading to the cafeteria and dormitory, a media outlet was setting up cameras and reporters were holding microphones, randomly interviewing employees passing by.
It should be the media that has a good relationship with the Yin family and is cooperating with their publicity in this way.
"I can't appear in front of the camera," Xiao Wu pursed his lips, "If it's broadcast and someone I know sees it, it'll be over."
He is now wearing the work clothes of the Yin factory, which is even more confusing than yesterday.
But there is only one main road, and there are no small paths leading directly to the front, so he can't get around the camera.
"If it really doesn't work... let's climb over the wall?" Chao Yougan suddenly suggested, "The low wall we climbed yesterday is very long. We can go in directly from here, then climb over, walk from the other side of the low wall, and then climb back at the end. This way we can avoid the camera."
"That's fine..." Xiao Wu glanced at Lu Changfeng behind him, "Then you pull me."
Lu Changfeng nodded.
The camera for interviews on the main road ahead was set up in the middle of the street, and the path leading to the low wall was very narrow. Xiao Wu hid behind Lu Changfeng all the way to avoid the camera. When he slowly reached the alley, he saw another familiar face.
They were the same guys I met when I was climbing over the wall yesterday.
These people are now wearing masks and look sneaky, just like Xiao Wu.
The two groups met again in an extremely awkward manner.
In front of the narrow alley, everyone's face was filled with embarrassment, and they lined up neatly in front of the low wall. Lu Changfeng went up first, then pulled Xiao Wu over, and Bai Jinshu and You Zhi followed behind.
After Xiao Wu turned over, the rude guy behind You Zhi couldn't help but hit him in the waist with his elbow.
"Hey, man, can't you see?"
"What?" You Zhi turned his head.
"I didn't realize that you and this little brother both look so decent. This little brother looks like a pretty boy. He's also a tough guy, huh?" The rude guy winked.
"What...what tough guy?" You Zhi didn't react.
Bai Jinshu: ...
It should be said that he seemed to detect a very strange sense of familiarity.
Yinshi, there are really many hidden talents among your interns.
The rude guy patted You Zhi's shoulder, looking like they were brothers, and said, "Oh, we've met twice on this wall. It's boring. It won't be fun if it continues like this!"
"What do you mean boring?" You Zhi didn't understand.
"...You're pretending to be angry. We're all hiding from trouble because of something we did wrong. What's wrong with being friends and helping each other out?" The rude guy frowned unexpectedly.

The short squeeze mentioned in the barrage is: when you are short selling, you encounter shareholders who hold a large number of shares and go long against you, which drives up the stock price continuously, and finally you are forced to liquidate your position.
The principle is that you are shorting stocks borrowed from an intermediary, so if the stock price goes up, you need to pay more margin to ensure that you can pay it back in the future. If the stock price keeps going up and you keep paying more, one day you will not be able to pay more. At this time, the short sellers will be forced to liquidate their positions and must buy the same shares they borrowed at this high price. At the same time, the stock will soar again due to a large number of transactions. Then the large number of shareholders who are long on this stock will sell all their shares at this extremely high point and make a fortune.
