The next day, Chen Ze, Chen Hao, and bodyguard Zhao Youde took a plane to Shanghai early in the morning.
After a two-hour flight, the three landed at Shanghai Airport at around 9:40 a.m., and then took a taxi to Mr. Zhao's supercar dealership.
Soon after, the three arrived at the Marriott Supercar 4S store on Hongqiao Road. Chen Ze went inside and found that the showroom was very spacious, filled with various supercars, including Porsches, Maseratis, McLarens, Koenigseggs, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and more.
He looked at the empty showroom, not a single person looking at the cars: "Chen Hao, this store is so big, how come there isn't a single person looking at the cars?"
Chen Hao smiled and said, "Brother Ze, the cars here start at three million, which is unaffordable for ordinary people. Those who can afford them must be worth at least tens of millions. After all, only a small number of people are worth tens of millions, so it's normal that there are few people looking at cars."
At this moment, a man in a suit and sunglasses walked over and greeted them: "Hello, Xiao Chen, thank you for introducing me to your client."
Chen Hao shook hands with him and introduced him, saying, "This is my brother Chen Ze; he's the one who wants to buy a car."
"Hello, Mr. Zhao." Chen Ze shook hands with him politely.
"Brother Chen, let's go, I'll take you to see that Bugatti Mistra supercar."
The three arrived in front of a black Bugatti. Young Master Zhao introduced it, saying, "This Bugatti is a new model this year. It has a 16-cylinder engine, accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.4 seconds, has sleek body lines, and a luxurious and beautiful interior. It is priced at 45 million RMB."
After speaking, he pressed a button on the remote control. The car lights flashed, and then the scissor doors slowly rose. Chen Ze sat inside and looked around. The workmanship of every part of the car was exquisite and perfect. It has to be said that Bugatti is the king of supercars.
Immediately afterwards, Young Master Zhao drove him around outside and taught him how to drive this top-of-the-line supercar. During the ride, Chen Ze listened to the roar of the Bugatti, which made him feel excited and gave him the urge to step on the gas pedal to the floor.
Back at the store, he took out his ID card and ICBC black card and handed them to Mr. Zhao: "I really like the car, swipe the card."
Young Master Zhao took the black gold card, his eyes lit up, and he was secretly shocked. Only the bank's top users could have the top black gold card. He immediately arranged for someone to process the formalities for Chen Ze, and then casually handed Chen Ze a premium membership card.
“Brother Chen, my shop will use a special truck to transport your car to Shenzhen. Under normal weather conditions, it will only take two days to reach Shenzhen University.”
"Okay, we'll be going now."
Young Master Zhao smiled slightly: "Take care."
As Chen Ze and Chen Hao walked out of the Marriott supercar store, Chen Hao couldn't help but joke, "Brother Ze, your Bugatti supercar is twice as cool as mine. If I hadn't just bought my car recently, I would definitely have bought another Bugatti."
Chen Ze smiled and said, "It's almost Chinese New Year, so I'm buying a nice car to drive back and show off. Most people go home for Chinese New Year just to show off and flaunt their wealth during those few days."
Chen Hao stroked his chin: "It seems so. It looks like you're just an ordinary person, like everyone else, you like to show off and flaunt your abilities."
Chen Ze smiled and said, "I'm just an ordinary person too. I also want to be recognized by others, don't I? Just like those mediocre people who like to play games, it's not because the games are so fun, but because they are mediocre in life and hope to gain recognition from others in the game. It's a kind of spiritual sustenance."
Chen Hao nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
The three arrived outside the airport. Chen Ze took out his phone and called Zhang Guoheng and Shen Xiyu, asking them to meet at the entrance of Shenzhen University in two hours.
Two hours later, the plane landed in Shenzhen. As soon as Chen Ze and Zhao Youde got off the plane, they went straight to Shenzhen University. When they arrived at the university gate, he asked Zhao Youde to bring the Audi over.
Zhang Guoheng and Shen Xiyu had been waiting there for a long time. When they saw Chen Ze, Zhang Guoheng excitedly ran over and asked, "Chen Ze, is there any work to do at the company today?"
Chen Ze nodded, raised his wrist to check the time and it was already 11 o'clock: "Guoheng, Xiyu, we'll take a car to Hong Kong later, exchange US dollars first, and then buy US stocks and gold at 10:30 pm."
Zhang Guoheng's eyes lit up: "Old Chen, you're also bullish on gold?"
Chen Ze laughed and said, "That's right, I'm just as optimistic about gold stocks as you are. I'm transferring 100,000 yuan of my salary advance to you now. If you add the warehouse, it will be 115,000 yuan."
“With you joining us, my confidence has greatly increased, and increasing my investment is a must,” Zhang Guoheng said with a smile.
After Zhao Youde drove the car, everyone got in and headed towards Hong Kong. Along the way, they discussed the various possibilities of this investment, the atmosphere both lively and tense.
After arriving in Hong Kong, Chen Ze called Chen Youfu, Chen Hao, and Fatty, saying he wanted to invest in gold stocks and asking if they wanted to join.
As a result, the fat man transferred 130 million RMB (approximately 20 million USD) to him. After discussing it, Chen Youfu and his son Chen Hao each transferred 660 million RMB, which was exactly 200 million USD.
Chen Ze invested the most, totaling 6.6 billion RMB (approximately 1 billion USD).
This time they chose to open an account at Standard Chartered Bank, and they successfully exchanged US$1.22 billion while waiting for the evening trading session to begin.
Chen Ze took everyone to a fancy hotel for dinner. During the meal, Chen Ze shared some of his unique insights into the trends of gold stocks, which the others listened to with great interest.
Using his memories from his past life, Chen Ze decided to show off.
After dinner, Chen Ze booked four rooms at a large hotel and stayed up until 10:30 p.m. Zhang Guoheng couldn't wait to start buying US stocks and gold. As the sound of keyboards rang out in the room, the three of them began frantically buying US stocks and gold.
They were busy until 3 a.m., but the gold price suddenly fluctuated and dropped by 0.2 percentage points.
Shen Xiyu hurriedly called out, "Boss, US stocks and gold have fallen. Should we stop and observe?"
Her words made Zhang Guoheng stop what he was doing.
Chen Ze remained calm and composed: "No need to stop, keep buying. This slight rebound is normal."
He firmly believed that history would not be easily changed, and sure enough, half an hour later the stock price began to rebound strongly and soared all the way up, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
US stock markets closed at 5 a.m.
At this moment, the sky outside was still pitch black.
Chen Ze instructed, "Everyone is tired, go back to your rooms and rest."
Shen Xiyu opened her mouth, stretched, and then walked lightly back to her room to sleep.
Afterwards, they all returned to their rooms.
Chen Ze sat on the edge of the bed and felt a little itchy on his head. He scratched his hair and found that his hands were covered in oil, which he figured was probably because he had stayed up late.
He quickly took off his clothes and went into the bathroom to take a hot shower. After the shower, Chen Ze felt much more relaxed. He wrapped himself in a towel, walked out of the bathroom, and fell asleep on the bed.
A few hours later, sunlight streamed in through the gaps in the curtains, and the warm winter sun shone on Chen Ze's face, making him sleep more comfortably.
