I've already reached the Nascent Soul stage, and you're saying I didn't time travel?

Chapter 20 is all in red!

In 2020, after a series of investigations, Daqian Stock Market underwent very radical reforms, increasing regular trading hours from four hours to eight hours per day, removing daily price limits, and adding a circuit breaker mechanism.

Over the course of six years, the stock market has seen constant ups and downs, with some losing their families and others becoming rich overnight. Investors have gradually become accustomed to the new stock market mechanism.

Today, after Qi Xuan's live broadcast ended, the stock market's rise was actually somewhat delayed.

Almost immediately after news of COMAC's orders circulated widely online, related stocks began to rise steadily.

The first stocks to rise were Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group and AVIC Control, etc. As for why not Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC), it's because COMAC is not listed on the stock exchange, so you can't buy it even if you want to.

Therefore, a series of stocks referred to as COMAC concept stocks have been highly sought after by investors.

For example, Xi'an Aircraft Industry Group (XAC), which is responsible for supplying the core airframe structure of the C919, such as the wings, mid-fuselage, and outer wing boxes; Qianhang Optoelectronics, the core supplier of avionics connectors for the C919; and Aero Engine Control, which focuses on aero-engine control systems, have all seen their related stocks surge.

Even if some stocks have just risen recently, they are now reaching a new peak.

In a short time, online forums and communities frequented by numerous stock market investors, such as Xueqiu and Tonghuashun, all experienced a period of great prosperity.

"I'm out of trouble! I'm finally out of trouble! Do you know what I've been through these past eight years?!"

"Damn it, I tried to buy at the bottom ten times, and each time it was lower than the last. Today I've finally turned things around."

"Hahaha, prices have gone up! They've gone up! Why would I even consider jumping off a building?!"

"A 20% profit, brothers, are you still going to go for it?"

"Charge! Charge! Keep going! I'm betting on doubling my money!"

"I'm a newbie and I have a question. Optoelectronics stocks have risen by 35%, is it still a good time to buy?"

"The answer is all in, all in!"

"Damn it, can the suicide squad stop dragging others down with them? Dude, if you're afraid of risk, buy something else. The COMAC concept is being hyped up too much right now, it might crash at any time."

"Haha, funds have entered the market! Everyone, let's follow the institutions and jump in!"

……

Amid the heated atmosphere, major COMAC concept stocks rose further, but because they rose so high, many new investors were hesitant to buy.

As a result, the stocks of major airlines that originally had nothing to do with COMAC all experienced a surge, with massive amounts of capital injected, and the entire aviation sector soared.

The related trending topics also made it to major news media platforms.

Even netizens who don't pay much attention to the stock market were drawn to it:
"What's going on? Why are airline stocks all plummeting?"

"Holy crap, don't do this! I just had my flesh cut last year!"

"Damn, this price increase is outrageous! It's making me really want to buy in."

"I was just wondering where to hide my secret stash of money, and here comes a new place for it!"

"I was originally planning to buy an iPhone 18, but now I've invested all my money in the stock market. I really need to make a lot of phones!"

"Take out a small loan, go all in, win and you'll be living the high life; lose and you'll be forced to work in the sex industry!"

……

Faced with a large number of netizens rushing into the stock market, experts and influential figures from various sectors have begun to speak out, calling for the market to calm down:

"Don't rush in recklessly. The stock market can't keep rising forever. Haven't we learned enough lessons from the past?"

"The good news has been fully priced in, and the order news has already been overhyped. Be careful of a sharp drop."

"Several stocks have deviated significantly from their intrinsic value. Are you trying to become a bagholder by entering the market now?"

"The excitement belongs to the institutions, the risks belong to the retail investors, and it's you who suffer losses."

"I'm making this bet: aviation-related stocks will rise by a maximum of 50% today, then immediately plummet! If I'm wrong, I'll eat ramen while standing on my head!"

……

However, despite the advice of experts and influential figures, netizens still rushed in. Most strangely, not only did the aviation sector continue to rise, but even the steel, machinery manufacturing, and new energy sectors saw repeated, unstoppable increases.

Seeing this, the experts and influential figures were all stunned:
"What's going on? Why is everything going up?"

"It's one thing for airlines to rise, but why are steel, coal, and new energy also rising?"

"I can understand the rise in steel prices, since manufacturing airplanes requires steel; I can also understand the rise in coal prices, since producing steel requires coal. But why are pharmaceutical and biological products also rising? What the hell does this have to do with pharmaceutical and biological products?"

"I just heard some rumors that Qi Xuan took cold medicine before boarding the plane. His ability to enter the floating continent might be related to the cold medicine he took."

"Damn, why don't you say that he used Huida's toilet when he went to the bathroom, which is why he was allowed to enter the floating continent?"

……

Half an hour later, the stock price of listed company Huida Sanitary Ware surged by 30%.

The stock market commentary community fell silent for a time.

Why are the experts and influential figures all silent now?

Who the hell is still talking? Everyone's rushing to get in.

This round of stock market surge has not yet stopped.

In addition to the large influx of netizens, massive amounts of foreign capital are also buying in.

After steel and coal stocks surged, other sectors followed suit, eventually leading to a situation where all 5,000 stocks rose, and the entire Daqian stock market was in the green!

The market index even broke through 10000 points, achieving a new historical high!

Seeing this, experts, influential figures, and ordinary netizens alike were all nearly driven mad.

However, no matter how excited they were, they couldn't continue trading because the stock market had already closed.

The market will be closed for the next two days.

This night is destined to be a sleepless night.

Countless stock market investors posted online, venting their emotions:
"Ten thousand points! That's outrageous, it's like a dream."

"I never would have imagined that the market index could break through 10,000 points."

"At first, I just wanted to make a little money from stocks, but I never expected to witness this historic moment."

"He single-handedly carried the entire stock market to new heights, I declare Qi Shen to be my father!"

"I will unconditionally support all of Qi Shen's decisions. I will buy whatever Qi Shen says."

"Praise be to Qi Shen! You are the light for all stock market investors!"

……

The topic has sparked heated discussions online.

By the next morning, on major news media platforms, almost half of the top ten trending topics were related to Qi Xuan and the stock market.

However, at this point, netizens had no time to pay attention to the stock market.

It's not just because the market is closed for two days and trading is not possible.

Furthermore, Barack, a top billionaire across the ocean, is about to conduct an aircraft landing test using the newly acquired C919.

He planned to completely replicate Qi Xuan's landing process in an attempt to send the second passenger plane into the floating continent.

In an instant, people all over the world, from ordinary citizens to high-ranking government officials, turned their attention to this.

Everyone is waiting for the results of this experiment.
