"It's normal. To deal with the Yuntian Pavilion organization, it must be done stealthily. Think about it, if even you can see something is wrong, how could Yuntian Pavilion, such a large player, not know?" Chen Feng explained calmly.
"That's true. As your woman, can you tell me which stocks you're using to deal with the Yuntian Pavilion organization?" Jiaye Meizi asked tentatively.
"No." Chen Feng refused flatly.
"Chen Feng, you're not even guarding against me, are you? I've given you my maiden purity, and you don't trust me?" Jiaye Meizi asked with apparent pain.
"Miss Meizi, you've misunderstood. It's not about guarding you. Honestly, no one knows about the secret anti-Yuntian Pavilion organization group except for the group itself. I'm not just not telling you; I haven't told Mayor Qin, Feng Dao Keiko, Cheng Lu, or even my parents. The matter is too significant, and we must be extremely cautious. It's not that I suspect you of spreading information, but sometimes, information can be inadvertently leaked. For absolute safety, it's best to start from the source and prohibit any leakage," Chen Feng explained earnestly.
Jiaye Meizi was convinced.
And so, Chen Feng stayed in the hotel room, nowhere else to go, staring at the stock market backend, making adjustments here and there.
Unbeknownst to them, another two weeks passed. Jiaye Meizi couldn't help but ask Chen Feng why, after nearly four weeks of being busy, there hadn't been any ripple.
"Miss Meizi, the absence of any ripple means we're doing it right," Chen Feng replied with a smile.
"Chen Feng, did I hear you correctly? How can no ripple be a good thing? Shouldn't it be a bad thing? It would imply you don't have the ability to strike against the Yuntian Pavilion organization," Jiaye Meizi asked tentatively.
"Miss Meizi, didn't I say before? Yuntian Pavilion isn't a small organization; it's a major American institution. Such institutions are extremely sensitive. Therefore, the secret anti-Yuntian Pavilion organization group must be twelve-tenths careful with any action, without even the slightest disturbance. It seems we've achieved that," Chen Feng explained earnestly.
"Alright, I'm understanding the stock market less and less. It seems like you haven't done anything, yet you say you've done many things without causing a stir. Then I'll just wait and see how you completely ruin the Yuntian Pavilion organization," Jiaye Meizi sighed.
Chen Feng just smiled modestly and said nothing more.
...
In the office of the Yuntian Pavilion headquarters building in the capital, several bosses were holding a serious meeting.
"Everyone, have you noticed anything unusual about the Chinese stock market recently?" asked Sun Qiang, the major shareholder, with a stern expression.
"No, Brother Qiang. The Chinese stock market has been very stable during this period. It's been calm, without any turbulence," replied everyone.
"It's precisely because it's too calm that it makes me feel there's something fishy going on, something big. No country's stock market can remain perpetually undisturbed," Sun Qiang said, knitting his brows.
"Qiang Guo, are you perhaps overthinking? In China, not only can retail investors not deal with us, but even major players cannot. Everyone calmly explained.
"While that's true, I just feel that this past month has been too unusual. Yet, if you ask me specifically what's wrong, I can't quite pinpoint it. It seems we've encountered a formidable opponent," Sun Qiang continued, frowning.
"Brother Qiang, could it be that you're too tired lately and hallucinating?" everyone asked tentatively.
"Hallucinations are impossible. I've been in the Chinese stock market for so many years; when have I ever hallucinated? My intuition is very strong. I have a feeling that Yuntian Pavilion is going to face a major crisis this time. How about this: starting today, no stock market order can be decided individually; all orders must be collectively discussed before being placed," Sun Qiang said earnestly.
"Qiang Guo, isn't this being too alarmist?" everyone was stunned. Yuntian Pavilion had never been this jumpy since its establishment. To be so cautious without seeing even a single enemy was incredible.
"It's settled then. Better safe than sorry," Sun Qiang replied flatly.
"Alright, Brother Qiang, we'll do as you say." Everyone agreed respectfully. Brother Qiang was the stock market god of China; his words, whether backed by evidence or not, were to be obeyed unconditionally.
For the next week, everyone at Yuntian Pavilion had to inform Sun Qiang in advance before placing any stock market order, even very small ones. Sun Qiang would then analyze it for a long time before agreeing to its execution.
"Chen Feng, another week has passed, and there's still no movement?" Jiaye Meizi asked worriedly. She had initially thought Chen Feng could resolve this in a week. But now, almost six weeks had gone by, and there was still no sign of activity.
"I was planning to make a move this week, but unexpectedly, Sun Qiang has become vigilant," Chen Feng sighed deeply.
"What? The leader of Yuntian Pavilion, Sun Qiang, has noticed? How is that possible? You haven't even started yet; how could he have noticed?" Jiaye Meizi asked, astonished.
"This is precisely where Sun Qiang is formidable. He has strong intuition and can sense danger approaching immediately," Chen Feng explained.
"Then what should we do?" Jiaye Meizi asked tentatively.
"It's easy," Chen Feng replied with a calm smile.
"Easy? How is that possible? Sun Qiang is so perceptive; he already knows someone is targeting Yuntian Pavilion and is surely on high alert, making it impossible to act."
"Miss Meizi, there's an old saying in China: when a person is most cautious, that's when they are most likely to make a mistake. Sun Qiang is now concentrating intensely every day, constantly on guard, almost to the point of madness. This is the most opportune moment to act," Chen Feng explained casually.
"I still don't understand," Jiaye Meizi pouted. She had thought her stock market skills had greatly improved after this period of practice, but she realized they were insignificant compared to Chen Feng's. Chen Feng's grasp of the stock market was simply masterful.
"Let me explain further. Sun Qiang is currently under immense mental strain, which cannot last for many days. He will start hallucinating and his analytical abilities will decline. Everyone is like this; intense concentration can only be maintained for a short period. Prolonged mental strain will inevitably lead to a decline in other abilities. While Sun Qiang's analytical abilities are declining, we should quickly boost a stock. This way, Sun Qiang and the Yuntian Pavilion organization will surely fall into our trap," Chen Feng said confidently.
"Which stock should we boost?" Jiaye Meizi asked curiously.
"LeTV stock," Chen Feng replied flatly.
"LeTV stock? Isn't the boss of LeTV already abroad? LeTV stock has become a penny stock. Boosting a penny stock like that, isn't it asking to lose money? To the point of losing everything," Jiaye Meizi asked doubtfully.
