After finishing breakfast, Chen Ze put down the newspaper he was reading.
I casually asked, "Has anyone else gotten up yet?"
"Zhang Guoheng and the others have gotten up and are waiting for your orders," Shen Xiyu replied respectfully from behind.
Chen Ze raised his wrist to check the time and found that it was only 8:30 in the morning.
"Boss, shall we go and take a look at PaInm mobile phone company?" Shen Xiyu asked.
"We won't go for now. Go and inform Zhang Guoheng and the others that they should gather in the banquet room immediately after breakfast," Chen Ze ordered.
Upon receiving the order, Chen Xiyu turned and left his room to inform the others.
Soon, everyone arrived at the banquet room, which was specially provided for guests to host parties.
Zhang Guoheng asked with some concern.
"Boss, isn't it too dangerous for us to work in the hotel?"
Chen Ze waved his hand, "Don't worry, I've booked the entire rooftop of the hotel. Hurry up and check the computer equipment, we have work to do today."
Everyone got busy checking computer equipment and troubleshooting the network.
Chen Ze sat at the front of the table, looking firmly at the people on his left and right.
After they finished checking the computer, Chen Ze began to explain his work for the day.
The article begins by stating: "There is a Fortune 500 company in the United States called Electronic Arts Game Station. Founded in 1997, it is an offline game retailer that primarily deals in consumer electronics, as well as video game hardware and software."
"However, nowadays, this company is not as good as before due to the impact of internet games. I guess they must have problems with their operations. I just checked the relevant data, and the company lost more than $1 billion between 2010 and 2012."
After listening to the boss's explanation, Zhang Guoheng asked a question.
"Boss, as you said, we can definitely make money if we short this company. As long as we expose their internal operational problems, this big company will be in even worse shape, and the stock price will definitely plummet."
Chen Ze smiled at Zhang Guoheng's words, "There are quite a few people who think the same way as you. What you can think of, others can think of as well. So this time we are not shorting, on the contrary, we are going long on this Electronic Arts Game Station company."
Several traders stared at Chen Ze in astonishment upon hearing his words. Xiao Fang thought to herself, "Has our boss gone mad? This company is about to go bankrupt, and he still wants to go long."
Zhang Guoheng, in particular, looked completely bewildered. After a long pause, he slowly spoke.
"Dear boss, what nonsense are you spouting in broad daylight? This Fortune 500 gaming company is on the verge of bankruptcy, and you still want to go long? Aren't you just giving money away to others?"
Several traders, including Chen Xiyu, suspected that their boss was still asleep and sleepwalking.
Otherwise, why would he say such nonsense?
Just as everyone was wondering, Chen Ze revealed a faint smile.
He tossed the Wall Street Journal he'd been reading that morning to Zhang Guoheng, saying, "You'll understand why I'm starting Multimedia Games after reading this newspaper."
Zhang Guoheng picked up the Wall Street Journal and shook his head helplessly when he saw that it was all in English.
"Boss, I majored in finance, not foreign languages. How am I supposed to understand this kind of unwritten language?"
Wild script? Chen Ze covered his forehead, speechless.
Xiao Yan teased Zhang Guoheng, "Guoheng, why don't you find a girlfriend out here?"
Zhang Guoheng glared at Xiao Yan, "During work hours, please call me team leader."
Under pressure from the team leader's tyranny, Xiao Yan pouted and stopped talking.
Chen Ze rolled his eyes at Zhang Guoheng. "Alright, I'll translate for you. The latest news says that Enzo, the second-largest shareholder of Apple in the United States, has invested $1.2 billion in Electronic Arts, becoming the largest shareholder of the company. This person is an investment genius in the United States and one of the richest people in the United States, with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars."
Upon hearing this news, everyone's eyes widened instantly, and the doubt and astonishment on their faces disappeared, replaced by surprise and excitement.
Zhang Guoheng stood up excitedly, "So that's how it is! With an investment genius like Enzo involved, EA Games might really be able to come back to life!"
Chen Ze nodded. "That's right. Enzo's investment acumen has always been very accurate. Since he's willing to invest $1.2 billion, he must have seen the company's potential. So we'll go long later, and once the stock price rises, we can make a fortune."
He paused for a moment, then continued.
"However, according to reliable sources I have received, several Wall Street financial giants are preparing to short Electronic Arts, so we need to wait until the stock price plummets to its lowest point before entering the market. At that time, we will definitely be able to make a fortune."
Upon hearing this
The traders were all eager to get started and make a big splash.
Chen Xiyu said with concern.
"Boss, if we're just fighting these cunning financial tycoons, I'm afraid..."
Chen Ze said confidently.
"Don't worry, we will definitely not be fighting alone. Someone will join us."
Upon learning that several financial tycoons were planning to short-sell Electronic Arts, Shen Xiyu was extremely worried about her boss, fearing that he would suffer heavy losses. One financial tycoon would be manageable, but these were several financial tycoons, and not just anyone could shake them.
So she tried her best to dissuade him.
"Boss, how about we go long on Tesla? We might earn less, but it's safe and reliable. If I were to fight against those financial giants on Wall Street, we might collapse completely. They're like an elephant, and we're like tiny ants. Trying to fight a tough elephant alone is just courting death."
Chen Ze understood what Chen Xi meant and knew she meant well. However, he was a reborn person who knew exactly what the future held.
He placed his hands on the table, glanced at everyone, and said with a firm look in his eyes.
"Don't worry, everyone. I won't fight a war I'm not sure I can win. Although the Wall Street financial giants are like thick-skinned elephants, sometimes even a lot of ants can kill an elephant. So just do as I say. We won't be fighting alone."
Those below speculated that the boss must have invited a large number of wealthy domestic individuals to give him the confidence to say such a thing.
At this moment, Xiaofang brought everyone a cup of coffee.
Soon, at 9:30, the US stock market officially opened.
Everyone took their seats and stared intently at their computer screens.
Less than three minutes after the stock market opened, Electronic Arts' stock price plummeted, like a rollercoaster ride, reaching its peak and then falling sharply.
Electronic Arts (EA) opened at $68 per share, but within just three minutes, it plummeted to $3 per share, as if it were in heaven one second and fell into hell the next.
The stock market investors in the New York Stock Exchange floor were nearly speechless with astonishment at what they saw.
The crowd began to discuss it.
"What?! What's going on?"
