Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 9 Black Monday ()

The next morning, Lu Shaohua woke Liu Mingzhang up early, pulled him into the room, and helped him translate the news on TV. At around seven o'clock, a piece of news caught Lu Shaohua's attention. "Mr. Liu, help me translate it."

"Yeah!" Liu Mingzhang nodded.

"First of all, on behalf of the Prime Minister, I would like to apologize to the people of the country. It is because the government did not urgently discuss a solution that the stock market has continued to fall in the past two days. However, last night, the Prime Minister convened a cabinet meeting overnight, and it was decided that the government will mobilize a large amount of funds to rescue the market today..."

"Haha, it's just as expected." When Lu Shaohua heard the words "rescue the market", he lost interest in listening. "Okay, it's time to go to bed. Turn off the TV. Don't pay attention to it."

"Sleeping? The market is about to open, why don't you go to the stock exchange to keep an eye on it?" Liu Mingzhang didn't know whether he had no confidence in the Japanese government or was just worried about letting it go.

"Haha, don't worry about it. Just go there before the market closes in the afternoon. Oh! I'm so tired. Let me go to sleep." Lu Shaohua threw away the remote control in his hand, got out of bed, and pulled a quilt over his head.

Liu Mingzhang saw Lu Shaohua like this, and knew that he really didn't want to go to the securities exchange. He shook his head, walked out of the room, and went back to sleep. The boss didn't care, so he didn't want to worry about it as a worker.

……

When Lu Shaohua woke up, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning. He woke up Chen Guobang, washed up, and then called Liu Mingzhang. Then the three of them found a place to eat something to fill their stomachs.

When they arrived at the stock exchange, there was only one hour left before the closing. Lu Shaohua just entered VIP room 88 and said directly without even looking at the screen: "Mr. Liu, clear all positions."

Lu Shaohua knew that Japan's stock market was extremely abnormal in 1987. No matter how big the drop was, it recovered in just one morning after the Japanese government announced a rescue plan, and it was just stable in the afternoon. That's why Lu Shaohua ordered a liquidation without even looking at the current index.

"Okay, I'll go and clear my inventory right away." Liu Mingzhang nodded. When he entered the securities office hall, he glanced at the screen and was shocked. He didn't expect that the stock market, which had been plummeting yesterday, would recover in just one morning. This was simply a miracle.

Under Liu Mingzhang's operation, the 2.5 million orders were all cleared in less than 10 minutes. At the moment after the clearing, Liu Mingzhang looked at Lu Shaohua's account and was shocked. Although he was prepared that Lu Shaohua would make a lot of money this time, he did not have a budget in advance and never expected that it would be so much. "1.2.3...9" That's right, the funds in the account have increased from the original 1250 million to the current nine figures.

"Brother Mingzhang, have you sold them all?" What Chen Guobang cared most about was whether Lu Shaohua kept his promise, so when Lu Shaohua ordered to sell all the stocks, he kept looking at Liu Mingzhang nervously. When Liu Mingzhang showed a shocked expression, he thought something unexpected had happened, so he asked anxiously.

Chen Guobang spoke with a loud voice, which was extremely loud, bringing Liu Mingzhang, who was in a daze, back to reality. "Brother Guobang, what did you say just now?"

"Oh! I asked you if you had thrown them all away?"

"Throw it away."

"It's fine if you sell it, it's fine if you sell it." Chen Guobang patted his chest, as if to say that he was completely relieved, but he seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Liu Mingzhang nervously. "How much money did you make?"

"1 million...2...7 million..." Liu Mingzhang spoke out the number in the account intermittently. In fact, this number was not accurate because Liu Mingzhang omitted the last digit of the account.

"1 million?" Chen Guobang didn't care about the more than 2 million behind it.

"Yes, it's more than 100 million, and it's still..." Liu Mingzhang had recovered at this time, with a playful expression on his face, and stopped talking halfway.

"Or what?" Chen Guobang was extremely nervous. Liu Mingzhang stopped talking halfway. Wasn't this deliberately teasing him?

"It's still US dollars, hahaha." At the end, Liu Mingzhang laughed.

"US dollars!" Chen Guobang's head buzzed. He couldn't believe what Lu Shaohua said yesterday was true. He could really multiply 1250 million tenfold. But Chen Guobang didn't have the energy to think about that anymore. His mind was filled with that long string of numbers...

Lu Shaohua seemed to take all this for granted. In fact, before coming to Japan, he had already calculated how much he could earn, and the number he got now was just what he expected. One million suddenly became 100 million, which was really amazing, but for him, a reborn person, it was not much. Black Monday was just an appetizer. The real feast was the stock market crash in 1. At that time, the funds were not calculated in tens of thousands or hundreds of millions, but in tens of billions or hundreds of billions.

"Brother, why don't you stay in Japan for a few more days?" Lu Shaohua asked Chen Guobang after his complexion had recovered a little. In his heart, he didn't want to go back so soon. Although he didn't know the data for the next four days, he was always thinking about the 26th.

Hearing that Lu Shaohua wanted to play in Japan for a few more days, Chen Guobang pondered for a while and looked at Lu Shaohua as if he wanted to see what Lu Shaohua was thinking, but he was disappointed. Lu Shaohua had no expression.

"Well, it's not easy to come to Japan, it seems a bit unreasonable not to play for a few more days, but there is one thing you have to remember, don't touch the stock market." Chen Guobang said in a fake serious manner, but at this time he secretly added in his heart. "If you want to invest in stocks, don't invest all your money." Chen Guobang was lying about how much money Lu Shaohua made in these three days. It would be a lie to say that he was not tempted. Of course, the more money the better, but he was afraid that Lu Shaohua would invest all his wealth in it like the previous two days. If something unexpected happened, the consequences would be disastrous.

"I understand, brother." Lu Shaohua nodded.

"Well, let's go back."

"Ah."
