Casino, 1997

Huang Daxian received a call from Su Yehao in the middle of the night. When he heard the phrase "a hundred or eighty million thank you gift," he was instantly wide awake.

What era was this? Only a fool would actually set up an altar and perform rituals.

He immediately got out of bed, turned on his computer, put on his reading glasses, and began searching for news related to Su Yehao with great enthusiasm.

Recently, the most popular news about Su Yehao was naturally the loss of over three hundred million U.S. dollars in investments.

Following that was the early liquidation of stocks such as Yahoo, Cisco, and Amazon. From the current perspective, it was clear that they were sold at a loss, resulting in a loss of two to three hundred billion Hong Kong dollars.

Fortunately, the stock price of Yanwenzi Group continued to rise sharply. Although people were watching the jokes, no one thought that Su Yehao was really declining. It was just the media trying to attract attention.

Others might not be clear about it.

However, Huang Daxian had been closely monitoring the news related to his major clients, the Su family, father and son. Of course, he knew how much Su Yehao had earned since starting his business, with profits of hundreds or thousands of times, which was simply terrifying.

As the saying goes, love what you do.

There were many feng shui masters in Casino and Hong Kong, but Huang Daxian was able to stand out and make his business so big, so he naturally had something special about him.

Combining the clues that Su Yehao was in New York and was looking for a suitable time to make a big bet, he keenly realized that it was probably related to the investment failure some time ago.

After spending nearly an hour frantically searching for various clues online, even going so far as to look at the recent trend charts of the NASDAQ, and browsing through all-English commentary articles on foreign websites through Yahoo, he recalled that Su Yehao had mentioned in the past one or two months that he had also confirmed some news with some foreign news that was bearish on NASDAQ technology stocks, and found that the bull market was likely to turn into a bear market, and the situation might change in the near future, and he suddenly understood.

As expected of a top student who studied in the UK.

Huang Daxian himself also liked to invest, and he handled this information very professionally.

After having a clear idea in his mind, in order to avoid ruining his own brand, he contacted his investment advisor to learn more about the latest trends in American internet technology stocks, and then called Su Yehao back...

New York.

Su Yehao finished lunch in Chinatown. In the afternoon, a reporter from *The Wall Street Journal* had an appointment to interview him.

At his level, the interview questions would be sent to him in advance. Although things like being caught off guard occasionally happened, large newspapers generally would not easily offend people.

After Linda Yun helped review them, she pointed to one of the questions and suggested: "They want to ask you if you are not optimistic about the upcoming market environment. Should this one be crossed out? Whether you say you are optimistic or not, it doesn't seem appropriate, and it's easy to offend the shareholders."

"Of course, this cannot be asked."

Su Yehao decisively refused and said, "If I say I am optimistic and attract shareholders to invest in Yanwenzi Group, they will definitely blame me when they lose money. But if I tell the truth that I am not optimistic, I will also offend the current shareholders. Even I, a major shareholder, have no confidence in the market, wouldn't that be asking for trouble? Some things can only be done and not said. It is best to minimize the association between me personally and Yanwenzi Group. I found a group of white executives to show up in the beginning, which should have some effect."

Linda Yun nodded and asked, "Okay, I will communicate with the people from *The Wall Street Journal* later. This evaluation of Yanwenzi Group in the back should not be asked either, right?"

"Yes, it's best not to ask. When the stock price falls, blame it on the poor market environment. Whether it's iCQ or tvt, the performance is already great..."

After speaking, he happened to receive a call from Huang Daxian.

Su Yehao calculated the time.

It was already two o'clock in the morning in Casino. Staying up all night for the opportunity to earn a hundred or eighty million, it seemed that he couldn't say that the other party was suffering.

The reason for contacting Huang Daxian was nothing more than wanting to get some confidence back from this feng shui master. Now that he was waiting day by day, he inevitably felt uneasy after a long time, always feeling restless and worried.

After all, the sudden return of more than three hundred million U.S. dollars in profits a few days ago still affected his mentality.

The current situation was similar to lighting a few cigarettes before an exam and chanting a few words for the Bodhisattva's blessing. In reality, involving hundreds of millions of dollars in capital, how could Su Yehao dare to really place his hopes on metaphysics? He was just seeking peace of mind.

Lying on the sofa, Su Yehao smiled after answering, "Huang Daxian, any news?"

"...A little clue. I used your birth data to calculate it. Today, your direct wealth has turned into windfall wealth, and you are clashing with Venus. The main reason is that your fortune has been too prosperous in the past two years, so it is inevitable that there will be ups and downs."

Huang Daxian said with certainty, continuing:

"But, young master Su, your birth data is really too good. Even if there is a clash, you will definitely be able to turn bad luck into good. Windfall wealth is also wealth. If you want to say which day is the most prosperous recently, it is the second day of the second lunar month, the day when the dragon raises its head. But this year, your wealth fortune definitely cannot be compared with last year. It is best to be stable."

Huang Daxian's blood pressure soared when he said these words.

He didn't dare to say too much, nor did he want to joke around, appearing as if he had made no contribution.

He vaguely guessed that Su Yehao wanted to invest in the U.S. stock market, which Huang Daxian thought was a rare opportunity. If he successfully bet on the right time to enter the market, then as long as the news spread, wouldn't the customers who came to him step over the threshold?

As for why he chose the second day of the second lunar month, on the one hand, Huang Daxian believed that the U.S. stock market had already risen a lot recently, and it couldn't keep rising forever.

On the other hand, the day when the dragon raises its head is indeed a good auspicious day in feng shui. Since he really had no confidence, he also relied on metaphysics.

Su Yehao didn't take it seriously after listening, and only asked, "The second day of the second lunar month, what's the date on the solar calendar?"

"March 7th of next month. Young master, you must be cautious this year. It's best not to be rash."

Huang Daxian was giving a preventive shot, and his tone seemed a little nervous, clutching a handful of sweat.

The main reason was that Su Yehao's profits and losses were in the tens of billions or hundreds of billions, which was different from the customers he usually received.

He was worried that if he gave the wrong advice, his own Daxian Temple could be smashed, affecting his financial future.

Su Yehao said calmly, "Okay, you burn a few more sticks of incense for me and wait for my news."

......

He met with a beautiful female reporter from *The Wall Street Journal* and spent more than forty minutes completing the interview.

The questions asked were nothing more than how he viewed Google and the focus of his future investments. The reporter who interviewed Su Yehao said bluntly that recently no one was willing to comment on the stocks of internet companies.

Of course, Su Yehao knew why.

Apart from a group of exasperated shortsellers, no one wanted to jump out and make enemies. Involving a huge market of trillions of dollars, the water was too deep.

Faced with the female reporter's probing, he only smiled and changed the subject to ask which restaurant in New York was delicious.

More than ten days passed in a flash.

In early March 2000, the NASDAQ still showed no signs of collapse, and the people who shorted the stock index were once again completely wiped out.

Su Yehao, who had already returned to Hong Kong, couldn't help but feel uneasy, thinking that it wouldn't really be metaphysics, and Huang Daxian had guessed the good day to enter the market correctly, right?

Zheng Yongwen was also feeling uneasy.

Faced with the NASDAQ index that was about to break through 5,000 points, Zheng Yongwen gradually couldn't sit still, and began to build a short position on a small scale, observing the situation while taking action...
