On the fourth day of the economic forum,
Zhou Chen still did not arrive.
Xu Dalong and the others did not attend, as they did not want to face any questions.
This thrilled Zhou Ling and Zhao Kun.
However, while they were happy, they couldn't help but feel regretful, because without Zhou Chen's appearance, they couldn't humiliate him or get revenge on him in person.
"It doesn't matter. I don't believe he can hide forever. He will eventually show up on the last day, and then we can humiliate him."
Zhao Kun comforted him.
Zhou Ling nodded. That's right. There's still time to humiliate Zhou Chen on the last day. Good things come to those who wait. Zhou Chen can't escape.
Zhou Chen was not present.
Zhou Ling and Zhao Kun had no choice but to shift their attention to Zhou Na, whom they had seen on the first day as a volunteer.
So, Zhou Ling decided to go to Zhou Na and show off.
Although she didn't hate Zhou Na as much as she hated Zhou Chen, she still harbored considerable resentment towards Zhou Na. Moreover, now that she was appearing as a guest at this economic forum, Zhou Ling naturally didn't want to give up this opportunity.
When Zhou Ling pulled Zhao Kun to Zhou Na's side, she was about to speak when she realized that Zhou Na seemed not to see them and suddenly turned and left.
this……
"Ignore me, okay, okay..."
"It seems you're afraid I'll humiliate you, and you know you'll lose face if you face me now."
"Therefore, they fled first."
"It's alright, we have a long time ahead of us. Once Li Xiaolong wins the bet against Zhou Chen, I'll make you regret how you treated me back then."
“You are all alone now. Fourth Brother is on my side, and I have Brother Kun who loves me. But you have nothing. So what if Zhou Haide values you? As long as Li Xiaolong wins, he will definitely inherit the family fortune, while you will get nothing.”
Zhou Ling sneered as she watched Zhou Na's retreating figure.
Zhou Chuan, who had been following the two of them the whole time, recorded Zhou Ling's mutterings on his phone. He chuckled to himself, "Zhou Ling, I, Zhou Chuan, am not on your side. You and Second Sister are just pawns in my game. I don't stand on either of your sides. I only stand on my own side. No one can use me as a tool."
"However, following Li Xiaolong in stock trading this time was still pretty good. That kid Li Xiaolong has inside information. That idiot Zhou Chen foolishly bet with him. I really don't know what he was thinking. Just to save face? But what's face worth? He's regretting it now, isn't he? Hehe... He really brought this on himself. In my opinion, all of you are fools. Only I, Zhou Chuan, am the smartest."
Thinking that Zhou Chen is no longer the invincible stock market guru he once was, and that his reputation is about to crumble, Zhou Ling, for the sake of profit, colludes with Li Xiaolong and is hostile to Zhou Na, while Zhou Na tries hard to prove herself and tries to gain Zhou Haide's attention, etc.
Zhou Chuan felt that he had seen through everyone.
Some people used to say he was stupid and reckless. Zhou Chuan admitted that he was indeed not very smart before, but now he has changed. He has grown up and is no worse than Zhou Chen or Zhou Na, and is even smarter.
In the blink of an eye,
The economic forum has entered its fifth day.
The stocks Zhou Chen chose, while no longer falling, also weren't rising; they remained at a very low level.
The stocks Li Xiaolong chose didn't see a sharp rise, but they did experience a slight increase.
The two bet the same amount on stocks. From the beginning until now, Li Xiaolong has a significant advantage over Zhou Chen, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, he is bound to win.
After all, the stocks Zhou Chen selected were losing money, while Li Xiaolong had already made over 100 million yuan, and even inspired many netizens to make money and gain considerable fame online.
Some people even sold their houses and cars to gamble with Li Xiaolong.
And such people are not few; they exist in large numbers.
On the sixth day of the economic forum
Zhou Chen has finally arrived, making another appearance at the economic forum.
His appearance undoubtedly made him the center of attention; however, this time, much of the attention he received was tinged with amusement.
"Mr. Zhou, I want to thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I would have made a fortune by following the young master of the Li family in stock trading. My company might have gone bankrupt by now. You are my benefactor."
After dinner, someone showed a grateful expression, but those around them could tell that it wasn't a compliment, but rather something to be interpreted in reverse.
"Are you fucking crazy?"
Standing next to Zhou Chen, Li Kaile suddenly spoke up and retorted.
Who are you being sarcastic about?
Wang Rui also showed anger as he stared at the other party.
"Old Li, Ruizi."
Zhou Chen stopped the two, not wanting them to escalate the situation. At the same time, he stepped forward and said to the man, "Considering your gratitude, I advise you to know when to stop. Otherwise, it won't be long before your company goes bankrupt."
The man's lips twitched, and he said with a fake smile, "Hehe, then there's no need for you, Stock God Zhou, to trouble yourself."
When the man said the words "Zhou the Stock God," he emphasized them, making it sound very ironic.
Zhou Chen didn't say anything more. He was genuinely trying to remind them, and whether they listened or not was up to them.
"Let's go."
Zhou Chen greeted the core team members.
"Zhou, the stock market guru, don't rush off."
"What you just said sounds like you're implying that my stocks will soon be in trouble. I don't like hearing that."
A figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
Just by listening to the voice, you can tell who it is—it's Li Xiaolong.
These past few days, Li Xiaolong has been beaming with joy because the stocks he chose have been rising every day. Although the rises are not dramatic, they have consistently generated profits, which has led many mainland business owners to actively seek his favor.
His maternal grandfather, Li Zhenrong, took this opportunity to introduce him to some important figures, helping him to consolidate his network of connections in mainland China.
He has even reached cooperation agreements with leadership teams in various regions, laying a solid foundation for future development.
"Mr. Zhou, you're known as a stock market guru in China, but the stocks you choose aren't performing as well as the stocks I, an ordinary person, pick. If I'm not mistaken, you've already lost nearly 100 million, while I've made almost 200 million. Mr. Zhou, if you're willing to admit defeat now, I can actually give you the chance to do so, but only for now. Do you want to consider it?"
Li Xiaolong said with a smile.
"I don't need it. There are still one day and two nights left before the bet ends. We'll know who wins tomorrow night."
Zhou Chen left with those words and then led everyone away.
Li Xiaolong snorted and commented with two words: Stubborn!
This scene,
That evening, the story was posted online, and those netizens who had made money by following Li Xiaolong's stock trading advice expressed the same opinion as Li Xiaolong, believing that Zhou Chen was being stubborn.
Many people even confidently declared that if Zhou Chen could turn the tables and win the bet in the last two days, they would immediately stand upside down and eat shit.
However, just as many people were making the same vow,
The moment the foreign stock market opened, they all stopped smiling and their faces froze.
