Counterattack starts with controlling probability

Late at night, Li Hao stood in front of the window. The cold wind seeped in through the slightly open window, but he was unaware of it.

"Interesting," he murmured softly, his eyes falling on the stack of papers on his desk.

Wang Zhen's handwriting was clear and powerful, and every notation seemed to prove to him the reliability of the information.

But Li Hao's eyebrows were slightly raised, and there was a coldness in his eyes.

"Xu Lei, what do you think?" He turned around, his voice low, but with an unquestionable power.

Xu Lei sat on the chair opposite, his hands folded, his eyes scanning the documents like a knife.

"The logic is coherent, the details are complete. But it's just... too perfect." He looked up and met Li Hao's gaze. "There's truth within the falsehood, and falsehood within the truth. It seems like a trap set up to make us let our guard down."

"There's truth within the fake," Li Hao repeated, a sneer on his face. "Then let's set a trap for them."

Xu Lei showed a knowing smile, "How do you do it?"

"Since White Rock Capital is focusing on the niche market of autonomous driving technology, we let them think it's a golden road."

Li Hao's voice was not loud, but every word was like a spark falling in the dark night.

Noah Technology's counterattack was swift. Xu Lei led his team, targeting several autonomous driving technology companies in White Rock Capital's investment plan.

They began to precisely manipulate market information to create an illusion of prosperity.

The price fluctuations of key technology suppliers were deliberately magnified, while the market popularity of several core companies was pushed to the peak by the media.

Everything seemed like an elaborate illusion.

"Mr. Li, are you sure they will take the bait?" a team member asked in a low voice.

Li Hao looked up, typing intently on his keyboard. "They have to take the bait, because we're going to make this 'fish' so juicy that they won't want to give it up."

Lao Pi's "probability manipulation" played its unique role at this moment.

He asked Xu Lei to select several companies that Baiyan Capital might prioritize and secretly influence their stock price fluctuations.

The market's seemingly spontaneous reaction actually contains hidden clues from Noah Technology.

At the same time, Liu Xia focused more on manipulating public opinion.

Her team released a series of industry analysis reports in a short period of time, accurately pointing out the future potential of autonomous driving technology and suggesting that the field is about to usher in a capital feast.

The report was released by an anonymous industry analyst and quickly sparked discussion in the capital circle.

The top executives of Baiyan Capital could no longer sit still.

"Is the latest data out?" In the meeting room of Baiyan Capital, the atmosphere was oppressive as if a storm was about to come.

"It's out." An executive handed over a report, his voice tinged with excitement. "The market enthusiasm for autonomous driving has exceeded expectations. The valuations of several core companies are rising rapidly. We must seize this opportunity."

"We must act!" Another senior executive knocked on the table, his tone full of urgency. "If we delay any longer, I'm afraid other investors will get there first."

"We've already allocated funds," a senior investment executive said, his eyes gleaming with determination. "Once we enter the market, we can dominate this sector within six months."

However, they did not notice that behind this eagerness, there was an invisible net that was quietly closing in.

A few days later, the market changed dramatically.

Baiyan Capital acquired two core technology companies at a high premium and quickly announced its layout in the field of autonomous driving.

However, almost at the same time, the market's enthusiasm came to an abrupt end.

The share prices of several suppliers began to slide, and the company acquired by White Rock Capital was even rumored to have poor internal management.

The capital bubble burst much faster than expected.

Baiyan Capital's capital chain was under pressure, its international credit line was forced to increase, and its internal investment department was in chaos.

Li Hao saw all of this. Standing in front of the screen in the conference room, he looked at the red capital loss curves, a faint smile playing on his face.

"Not enough," he whispered, his voice as chill as the night wind.

……

Wang Zhen stood outside the conference room of Baiyan Capital's headquarters. Through the heavy wooden door, he could faintly hear the quarrel inside.

He clenched the documents in his hand, and his palms were slightly sweaty from the force.

This internal meeting was closely related to him, but he was not invited to participate.

"Wang Zhen's intelligence was completely inaccurate! Isn't the loss this time serious enough?" The voice of an executive was harsh and angry.

"Yeah, we invested so many resources, and what's the result? Noah Technology turned against us. Isn't this his dereliction of duty?" another person agreed coldly.

"I've said it before, such two-faced people cannot be reused!" said the third person firmly.

Wang Zhen's face gradually turned pale.

He knew that after the failure of the operation against Noah Technology, Baiyan Capital’s loss was not only capital and market trust, but more importantly, their confidence was severely damaged.

And I became the target of this storm.

The door to the conference room finally opened, and a senior executive walked out with a cold expression. After glancing at him, he said, "Go in."

Wang Zhen took a deep breath, opened the door, and felt a gust of cold wind blowing towards him.

In the conference room, all the management of Baiyan Capital were present, and the expressions on their faces were like ice and snow in the cold winter.

"Wang Zhen," an older executive said, his tone cold. "Can you explain why the intelligence you provided not only failed to help us successfully attack Noah Technology, but instead cost us a greater price?"

Wang Zhen's face sank as he tried to defend himself. "The information I provided was completely embellished according to the company's arrangements, but Noah Technology is clearly more cunning than we expected. They exploited public opinion and the capital market to launch a counter-attack. We underestimated their execution and responsiveness."

"So that's your excuse?" another executive sneered. "Your intelligence led us to misjudge the market, resulting in heavy losses in the autonomous driving sector. Now, the company's capital chain is strained by this mistake. How are we going to explain this to group headquarters?"

Wang Zhen's tone began to become anxious: "The market itself is dynamic—"

"Enough!" The head of Baiyan Capital, who was sitting in the chief seat, interrupted him coldly, "Wang Zhen, we don't need excuses, we need results. Your decision-making ability and the accuracy of your intelligence clearly cannot meet the company's needs."

There was silence in the conference room, and everyone was exerting invisible pressure with their eyes.

Finally, the person in charge spoke, his tone as cold as a verdict: "Consider it for yourself. Should you voluntarily submit your resignation, or should we let you go through the formal process?"

Wang Zhen's fingers trembled slightly as he tried to remain calm.

He knew that the outcome of this meeting was already determined, but he was unwilling to accept it.

"Is it really fair for you to put all the blame on me?" He looked up and around, his voice low and angry. "The root cause of this failure lies in your blind disregard for Noah Technology, not me. You want me to take all the responsibility, but let me tell you—you'll lose more than just my personal abilities."

After saying that, he turned and left the meeting room without looking back.

When he walked out of the building, Wang Zhen felt mixed emotions.

He knew that his career at White Rock Capital had come to an end.

A hint of anger and unwillingness in his heart made him start to reconsider those choices that he once considered to be opposite.

The atmosphere at Noah Technology's headquarters remains calm, with bright lights reflected on the glass curtain walls, casting a shadow of the city's prosperity and bustle.

And in the high-level meeting room, the prelude to a change has quietly begun.

Wang Zhen stood in front of the screen with a stern face and a hint of fatigue in his eyes.

The pointer in his hand moved across the display screen, showing a series of Baiyan Capital's supply chain layout and key cooperation points.

"These are the core control links of Baiyan Capital, and also the main ways they restrict our technology output." Wang Zhen's tone was calm, but revealed a bit of suppressed anger.

Li Hao leaned back in his chair, tapping the table with his fingers, his eyes deep.

He did not respond immediately, but turned his gaze to Xu Lei, as if waiting for another message.

"I've cross-verified this data, and it's indeed true." Xu Lei raised his head, his tone filled with a hint of certainty. "More importantly, we can use this information to launch countermeasures."

"Counterattack?" There was a hint of doubt in Wang Zhen's voice.

Li Hao smiled slightly, his eyes as sharp as a falcon.

"If White Rock Capital likes a blockade, then let them blockade themselves. Their supply chain is not invulnerable. The key is to find a breakthrough and deliver a fatal blow."

Wang Zhen stared at Li Hao's face, as if searching for some kind of answer. However, the other party looked calm, as if everything was under control.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the meeting room at Baiyan Capital's headquarters was suffocatingly stagnant.

"Wang Zhen not only took the team away, but he also directly exposed our supply chain layout to Noah Technology!" An executive suddenly stood up and angrily slammed the table. "This is absolutely unforgivable betrayal!"

"He actually betrayed us?" another person took over the conversation, his tone full of indignation.

"Enough." The person in charge sitting at the first seat spoke coldly. His voice was low, but it made the entire conference room quiet down instantly.

"Wang Zhen's behavior is certainly abominable, but the core of the problem lies in why our supply chain defenses are so fragile. Noah Technology was able to quickly bypass the blockade, which shows that we have huge loopholes at key nodes." He swept his eyes over the crowd, and his tone was as biting as the cold wind.

"But now, Noah Technology has gained the advantage, and our market control is declining sharply!" another senior executive said unwillingly.

The person in charge closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "Convey my order. Completely cut off Noah's remaining supply chain and focus resources on our core business. If necessary, directly put pressure on those wavering suppliers."

A few days later.

"Supply chain adjustments are complete." Xu Lei placed a document in front of Li Hao. "We not only circumvented Baiyan Capital's blockade, but also contacted some small suppliers who were oppressed by them and re-established cooperation."

Li Hao looked at the documents, his lips curled up slightly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. "These suppliers are not simple. Baiyan Capital's control over them may seem solid, but in fact, there are already cracks everywhere."

Xu Lei nodded. "Especially those small and medium-sized enterprises. They have long complained about Bai Yan's coercive policies. Now we only need to give a slight push to make Bai Yan step on the landmine himself."

"Okay." Li Hao closed the file, his tone tinged with coldness. "Since they like blocking the road, let's let them experience what it's like to be trapped."

Soon after, Baiyan Capital's blockade of the supply chain was gradually countered.

What caught them even more off guard was that negative news about Baiyan Capital forcing suppliers began to spread in the market.

"They're playing with fire!" The roars of the White Rock Capital executives echoed in the conference room. "Wang Zhen is a complete cancer! He leaked everything we have to Noah Technology!"

"How much time do we have to turn the situation around?" someone asked in a low voice.
