The sell-off seemed to drag the entire stock down with it!
Ten thousand shares sold!
One million shares sold!
Ten million shares sold!
Fifty million shares sold!
In ten minutes, a full one hundred million shares were cleared!
"Holy crap, what's going on? Did Yang Mange get arrested?"
"No way, did some artist from Wuyou Media mess up again, or get caught for tax evasion, causing a major shareholder to dump?"
"It's an avalanche, run!"
This triggered panic among other shareholders, who began to sell off their holdings in succession!
Wuyou Media's stock price plummeted rapidly!
It instantly dropped to the lower limit of -10%.
Furthermore, Wuyou Media wasn't listed on the mainland, but in Hong Kong, which has no daily price limit mechanism.
The stock price continued to turn green with alarming speed for the shareholders!
-15%!
-20%!
-25%!
Finally, the downward trend slowed, but Wuyou Media's stock price had fallen by nearly 30%!
Wuyou Media's previous market capitalization was 20 billion.
In just over ten minutes, its market value had shrunk by 6 billion!
After deducting the losses from the price drop, Su Yang's account was tied up with another 1.6 billion.
A passerby photographer quietly approached, standing a step behind Su Yang, pretending to look at the menu while aiming a hidden camera at Su Yang's phone.
Su Yang, completely unaware, had the entire scene on his phone fully exposed to the program's cameras!
The camera zoomed in!
A close-up of the phone screen!
The viewers in the live stream began to voluntarily count Su Yang's money.
"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand, million, big brother, dad, grandpa, ancestor... Holy crap!"
"This is a real big shot, I admit I was talking too loud just now!"
"2.6 billion? My god, is that really the balance? 2.6 billion in cash flow?????"
"Grandpa, I'm your long-lost grandson..."
"The clown is me???"
"The clown is me???"
"The clown is me???"
The viewers began to flood the chat.
Many viewers shamelessly started calling Su Yang grandpa, dad, and husband...
The show's popularity completely exploded!
They thought the program had randomly selected an incompetent passerby, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a hidden big shot!
The director's team was also shocked, and the venue was silent!
And the other guests who were waiting to watch the drama unfold behind them all widened their eyes subconsciously upon seeing Su Yang's bank balance!
Yang Mange couldn't see the live stream and hadn't received further instructions from the director, but judging by the expression of the photographer behind Su Yang, he seemed... terrified?
What was going on?
What had he seen?
Just as Yang Mange was feeling confused, the phone in her handbag rang.
She subconsciously glanced at the photographer opposite her. Seeing that he didn't react, she took out the phone and saw it was from her company's finance department.
"Hello?"
"Boss, something's happened!"
"What happened?"
"The stock price! The stock price! The company's market value just evaporated by at least 6 billion for some unknown reason! Boss, can you come back quickly? The board members are frantic!"
"What!"
Yang Mange's eyes widened. How could the stock price suddenly plummet!
She herself was a major shareholder of the company, and she hadn't engaged in any manipulative trading today.
Suddenly, Yang Mange remembered what Su Yang had said.
"I am a major shareholder of Wuyou Media."
"If you don't believe me, I'll show you."
"It was you!"
"Stabilize the board first, I'll resolve it immediately!"
Yang Mange hung up the phone directly and scanned the man in front of her.
Her mind was a mess right now.
But...
One thing was certain!
This was definitely not a guest arranged by the program to go on a blind date with her. The real guest must be someone else!
This was a true big shot!
She had mistaken him!
"Hoo—"
Taking a deep breath, Yang Mange forced a smile. "Sir, did you just make a trade?"
"Mm."
"Can I see your phone?"
Su Yang smiled. All women eventually wanted to check a man's phone.
But since he didn't visit prostitutes or have a girlfriend, what was there to fear?
"Here you go."
Yang Mange took the phone. The screen was paused on the stock trading interface.
Wuyou Media Entertainment
Today's Fluctuation: -30%
Below, it showed the automatic liquidation Su Yang had just performed, with millions being dumped in a continuous row!
Even the seasoned Yang Mange was stunned into silence at this moment!
He really was a major shareholder of my company!
And.
You, to make me believe you, used my company's 6 billion market value to exchange for your 1 billion plus?
Are you a pervert!
She really wanted to curse him out!
"Um..."
Yang Mange frowned, her face flushing slightly with anger.
"Can we pause this blind date for a moment? I want to go to the restroom to touch up my makeup."
"Please do."
Su Yang waved his hand indifferently.
This woman could remain so calm even after seeing his billions in savings.
It showed she truly wasn't greedy for vanity.
If it were his ex-girlfriend, she would have probably gone crazy by now.
Very good, the blind date his mom introduced was really not bad.
Yang Mange picked up her small handbag and walked towards the restroom. At the entrance, she encountered a young woman dressed in a flashy and eye-catching manner.
The woman's features were passable, but her demeanor was truly unappealing, and her attire suggested she was in a profession that paid well while lying down.
"What are you looking at!"
Suddenly realizing Yang Mange was observing her, the woman clearly became displeased.
It was because this woman disliked women prettier than herself!
The woman let out a cold snort with a look of arrogance, then unconsciously puffed out her chest before gracefully walking towards the restaurant.
Yang Mange peeked from the doorway and indeed saw her heading towards Su Yang!
"Strange... is there another script?"
But Yang Mange didn't watch any further. She went to find the director first.
...
Backstage of the live stream.
"Director, what exactly is going on?"
Seeing Yang Mange sneak out and switch the camera to Su Yang, the program director awkwardly stepped forward to explain.
"Mange, please don't be angry. This is a variety show, after all. It needs hot topics and buzz to get attention. That young man's performance just now was excellent."
"Did you arrange him?"
"No."
"No? He's a passerby?"
"...Yes."
"Are you crazy! Arranging a passerby for a blind date with me? Does Su Yang know about this?"
The program director explained helplessly, "It's all because that bastard Zhang Ye was being difficult and late. We couldn't find anyone else on such short notice. Coincidentally, you bumped into someone who was genuinely there for a blind date. Most importantly, look for yourself..."
He pointed to the real-time viewer count data on the computer screen.
Real-time Viewers: 13,709,633
Cumulative Viewers: 37,695,229
Yang Mange was stunned...
This episode had been broadcast for less than half an hour in total.
The cumulative viewership had already reached over 37 million!
Most importantly, over 13 million were watching live!
"Big Star Date," had exploded!
