Starting out as a drug dealer in 1988

The so-called mastermind behind the scenes is naturally the mysterious figure who dared to short the stock price of Longxing Group!

Not long ago, Chen Bing accidentally received a shocking piece of news from a close friend.

It is said that a relative of this friend inadvertently revealed at a private gathering that their company was secretly planning to short a listed company.

However, when Chen Bing was eager to find out more details, the other party clenched his teeth and refused to say a word no matter what.

Chen Bing, anxious and worried, knew that this matter was of great importance. He immediately rushed to the other party's location and even offered a large sum of money as an inducement.

Hard work pays off. After some coaxing and exchanging of interests, the key figure finally told the truth.

After obtaining this important information, Chen Bing did not dare to delay for even a moment and rushed back to the company at lightning speed, intending only to report this amazing discovery to his boss Zhou Changyan as soon as possible.

Coincidentally, when Chen Bing rushed to the company gate, he ran into Zhou Xiaoyu and Wang Tong.

After the three of them exchanged a few brief words, they quickly walked into the office together.

At this time, Zhou Changyan was sitting at his desk with a serious expression.

Seeing Chen Bing and others coming in, he slowly stood up and walked to Chen Bing with steady steps.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil and maintain his composure. Then, in a leisurely yet dignified tone, he asked, "Who is that person?"

Chen Bing opened his mouth and was about to answer, but Zhou Xiaoyu beside him could no longer contain his anxiety and curiosity.

He couldn't wait to interrupt, "Stop keeping us in suspense and tell us! Who is so bold as to short our stock? Could it be those Western investors with ulterior motives again?"

It is obvious that in their repeated deliberations and speculations, they always focused their attention on Western capital.

In their eyes, the Hong Kong Island region is currently suffering from the devastation brought by the financial crisis. If they want to short a powerful listed company on such a large scale, it seems that only capital from the West has such ability and style.

Not only Zhou Xiaoyu holds this view, but Zhou Changyan has also been conducting investigations and collecting evidence in this direction in recent days.

Unfortunately, despite their many efforts, they have never been able to achieve any results.

Just as everyone was feeling confused and at a loss, Chen Bing spoke slowly, "It's New Century Investment Company, and their boss is Zhao Wenhao!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Xiaoyu, who had been relatively calm, suddenly became like a powder keg that had been lit, and his emotions became extremely excited.

He looked like an extremely angry hedgehog, with spikes all over his body standing up, as if he would bite someone at any time.

He suddenly reached out and grabbed Chen Bing by the collar, his eyes wide open, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Zhao Wenhao? Are you sure? This guy is simply courting death!"

Faced with Zhou Xiaoyu's intense reaction, Chen Bing quickly explained, "It's absolutely true! I spent a full 20 Hong Kong dollars to get this information!

I learned this from a trader at their company. Furthermore, they all signed a strict confidentiality agreement, prohibiting anyone from disclosing any relevant information. I only learned about this incident by accident.

Chen Bing frowned slightly and tried to pry open Zhou Xiaoyu's hands that were tightly grasping his collar, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not break free from Zhou Xiaoyu's iron-like grip.

He secretly groaned in his heart, he didn't expect Zhou Xiaoyu to be so strong.

At the same time, Zhou Changyan's face was filled with astonishment, and he muttered to himself, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

His eyes widened and he shook his head in disbelief.

However, after a brief shock, Zhou Changyan quickly calmed down and began to think.

Just a few seconds later, he said categorically, "Where did Zhao Wenhao get so much money to short us? You know, Hengyuan Electronics' stock price has plummeted. Logically, it's impossible for them to have extra funds for such a petty move!"

After hearing what Zhou Changyan said, Chen Bing looked depressed and unhappy.

He muttered to himself that he had finally spent a lot of effort to find out this important information, but not only did he not receive any praise, but he was also met with such suspicion and questioning.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling very aggrieved and resentful.

At this time, Zhou Xiaoyu was still holding his collar tightly, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.

"Hmph! Father, there's no need to overthink it. It must have been that damned bastard's doing! Who else but him would have such a deep grudge against our family?"

Zhou Xiaoyu didn't want to analyze the reasons in depth at all. When he heard the three words "Zhao Wenhao", he was instantly furious and completely lost his mind.

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind - to settle the score with Zhao Wenhao!

Zhou Changyan did not jump to a conclusion immediately. He walked back to his seat slowly with a serious expression, sat down steadily, and reached out to pick up the telephone receiver beside him.

Then, he skillfully and quickly pressed a series of numbers and began to dial the first phone number.

Every time he dialed a number, he would briefly exchange a few words with the other party, then hang up and continue to call the next one without hesitation.

In this way, he dialed several numbers one after another, as if weaving a dense intelligence network.

As he finished making calls one after another, Zhou Changyan finally put down the receiver.

Yet at this moment, he fell into an uncomfortable silence.

He sat there quietly, motionless, like a sculpture, but his eyes were burning with rage, as if to devour everything.

If Zhao Wenhao dared to appear in front of him at this time, he firmly believed that he would open his bloody mouth and eat him alive without hesitation like a ferocious beast.

Zhou Xiaoyu, who had been nervously observing his father's actions, became extremely anxious when he saw that Zhou Changyan remained silent.

Unable to suppress his inner anxiety any longer, he quickly walked up to Zhou Changyan and asked anxiously, "Father, what happened?"

Zhou Changyan raised his head slightly, glanced at his son, and squeezed out two words from between his teeth: "It's him!"

This concise and powerful answer exploded in the air like a thunder.

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyu's eyes widened instantly and his face was full of anger.

He suddenly reached out and grabbed an exquisite bone china pen holder on the table, held it tightly in his hand, and then smashed it to the ground with all his strength.

There was a loud "bang" and the bone porcelain pen holder instantly turned into countless fragments and flew everywhere.

This sudden scene scared Chen Bing and Wang Tong who were standing nearby. They hurriedly took a few steps back to avoid being hit by the scattered debris.
