Chapter 444 Wei Boti’s Visit
Four days passed quickly. During these four days, Shi Lei was watching the stock market. Not only did the stock he shorted show no signs of falling, but it actually rose steadily.
Shi Lei, who knew something about stocks, looked at the trend of the stock and felt a little moved in his heart. He seems to have seen the banker's purpose, which is obviously to attract retail investors to enter the market. This is the rhythm of killing retail investors. This time, more than 90% of the bookmakers are short-selling. This is through constant changes of hands, constantly selling the stocks obtained through securities lending, and keeping the price at a high level.
Once the dealers have almost finished shipping, they will trigger a round of wild selling, quickly drive down the price, and then take advantage of the low price to complete this short sale.
The stock was still rising, but Shi Lei was not in a hurry. He was patiently waiting for the avalanche of selling on the fourth day.
The more he saw the stock price rising steadily, the more determined Shi Lei became. This time, he had caught a ride. Anyway, the position built by Shi Lei was small and it was difficult for the banker to detect it.
After three days, the stock rose instead of falling, rising by five points.
Shi Lei understood that the fourth day must be the lowest limit, and it would be hit to death without giving retail investors any chance to ship.
On the fourth day, just as Shi Lei expected, the price of this stock kept falling during the call auction stage. When the market opened, it had dropped by about eight points compared to yesterday's closing price.
Only half an hour after the market opened, the stock fell to its limit, and retail investors were completely trapped.
Now that he had seen the dealer's tactics, Shi Lei certainly would not choose to quit at this time. He quietly closed the computer and returned to bed.
It was still early before dawn outside, and Shi Lei's jet lag had almost been adjusted, and he fell asleep again after a while.
During the day, he casually strolled around the neighborhood. At night, Shi Lei went to bed early and set an alarm clock for two in the morning.
After being woken up by the alarm clock, Shi Lei washed his face coldly, then sat in front of the computer and watched the call bidding before the market opened.
During the collective bidding stage, the stock still went down a bit. This was because some retail investors were impatiently trying to sell. Shi Lei knew that after the opening of the market, this stock would inevitably rise slightly, and it would even be a stalemate with an upward curve throughout the morning.
Sure enough, after the market opened, the stock opened low and moved high. Retail investors were dumbfounded. Those who had already sold their stocks and completed the transaction immediately began to regret it, while those who had listed the stock but had not had time to complete the transaction immediately canceled the transaction.
Two hours later, the stock rose by another 3% compared to yesterday's closing price, which gave retail investors great confidence.
After the market reopened at 1 pm China time, the stock continued to rise. The increase was very small, but it gave people the feeling of a technical adjustment.
As half an hour passed, sell orders decreased, buy orders began to increase, and the dealer began to ship goods again.
The frequency was exactly what Shi Lei had calculated. Within an hour, it knocked out those retail investors who still didn't know what the stock was like. They saw the stock price continue to fall, and in the blink of an eye, it hit another limit.
Shi Lei nodded and turned off the computer.
There shouldn't be much left in the hands of the short-selling bookmakers. Tomorrow morning, at the opening of the market, they will choose to sell all the stocks, and then cause the stock price to plummet, reaching the ideal low level. At that time, they will receive the goods calmly and return them to the brokerage.
Shi Lei slept until he got up in the afternoon, Austrian time. He went out for a meal and found that his hair was a bit uneven, so he went to get a haircut. He came back and sat in the hotel bar, drinking wine alone.
There was a football match playing in the bar. Shi Lei usually didn't like these things too much, but he didn't plan to sleep today and wanted to wait until the market opened at 2:30 local time. So I just drank and watched the football game on TV boredly.
The phone rang, and Shi Lei saw it was a hidden number.
Shi Lei frowned and finally chose to answer.
The voice on the other end of the phone was cold: "Shi Lei, thank you."
Shi Lei was stunned for a moment, then realized that this was Wei Boti. It seemed that she had a full understanding of the Eye of the Night. Just as Shi Lei expected, she thought joining the Eye of the Night was her best choice, and finally She believed what Shi Lei said to her before, saying that she would thank him.
"Do you understand now? Then, you should be able to stay in Europe with peace of mind and not think about returning to your country, right?"
"At least for now, I apologize for how I've been treating you."
"Forget about apologizing, we can still be considered a family."
"Where are you now?" Wei Puti seemed to think for a moment before asking.
"Vienna, the hotel on the Danube River is the same hotel I booked before going abroad."
"when do you come back?"
"The flight is tomorrow night."
"Are you drinking?" Wei Puti asked again.
Shi Lei replied: "Well, are you bored? Let's have a drink at the hotel bar."
"Okay, wait for me, I'll be there soon." Wei Puti made a quick decision.
Shi Lei said hurriedly: "Are you allowed to see me? And you are also in Vienna?"
"I'm not in Vienna, but I can get there in about an hour, and I'll be back at your place within two hours, I guess."
Shi Lei looked at the time and saw that it was around nine o'clock in the evening, which was quite late. However, he was a little surprised that Wei Puti suddenly wanted to see him. The most important thing was that he was worried whether the Eye of the Night would allow her to see him.
"Well, will they allow it?"
"I applied for a private jet to fly directly there. Do you think they will allow it?"
No matter how awesome Shi Lei imagined the Eyes of Darkness, he never expected that a member like Wei Puti, who was not yet a formal member, could actually apply for the use of a private jet. This seemed a bit exaggerated, and it was difficult for Shi Lei to get used to it for a while. .
But he still said: "Okay, I'll wait for you in the bar."
"You should drink less before I arrive." Wei Puti hung up the phone.
Shi Lei looked at the beer at hand, smiled, and said to himself: "In the past six months, I have been trained by Wei Xingyue, and my drinking capacity has increased. In the past, three or four bottles of beer were enough, but now I am probably alone. It’s not a big problem if you drink a box of it. With this amount of wine, you won’t get drunk.”
After watching a game, Wei Puti hadn't arrived yet. Looking at the time, it was less than eleven o'clock, so it would probably take about half an hour.
So Shi Lei waved to the waiter, asked him to take a look at the wine list, picked the most expensive red wine, and asked the waiter how long it would take to sober up.
After getting the answer from the waiter for about twenty-five minutes, Shi Lei asked the waiter to open the bottle of wine.
The red wine liquid was poured into the decanter and placed in front of Shi Lei, quietly waiting for the aroma of the wine to awaken.
When he was almost sober, Wei Boti appeared in front of Shi Lei wearing a leather jacket and trousers.
When Shi Lei saw her, he smiled and said, "Sit down, the time is just right, and I can drink just enough wine."
Wei Puti didn't hesitate. After sitting down, he poured a glass of wine for himself and Shi Lei.
She raised the glass with both hands and said, "Thank you, I'd like to toast you with this glass of wine." After she finished speaking, she drank it all, and a blush instantly appeared on her cold and pretty face.
Shi Lei also took a sip, but did not finish it. He said calmly: "I introduced you to them not so that you can get revenge one day, but just so that they can restrain you, so there is no need to thank me."
