Counterattack starts with controlling probability

As the matter was urgent, he flew back to Daxia with his team members to discuss the matter face to face with Xu Lei.

Ji Shuqiang sat in the conference room of Xinxing Zhitou, his fingers tapping quickly on the keyboard. The numbers and charts constantly jumping on the computer screen reflected the current market fluctuations.

His brows were furrowed, and he was obviously thinking about a complicated problem.

Xu Lei pushed the door open, holding a report in his hand, and sat directly opposite Ji Shuqiang.

"Ji Shuqiang, I've read your recent analysis. The market is volatile, and some of our portfolios are suffering. If this continues, we may suffer even more severe losses."

Ji Shuqiang looked up and replied, "I know. What we need now is not just simple risk hedging, but a more efficient adjustment strategy. I'm already researching how to combine the latest AI models to optimize the configuration and minimize the portfolio losses."

Xu Lei raised his eyebrows: "Tell me your idea, how to do it specifically?"

Ji Shuqiang stood up, walked to the whiteboard in the conference room, and quickly drew a structural diagram.

“This is the improvement idea I envision. We need to reassess the risk exposure of the current portfolio and use more advanced AI models to make dynamic adjustments.”

He pointed to several key points on the whiteboard and continued to explain: "First, we incorporate real-time market data. AI can adjust holdings at any time based on fluctuations in volatility and liquidity. Second, we design more flexible stop-loss mechanisms for our existing high-risk assets to avoid overexposure. Third, we use AI to predict market sentiment and identify potential risk signals in advance."

Xu Lei nodded, but his tone remained calm. "It's theoretically feasible, but you know, the market is far more complex than that. AI model predictions can sometimes fail due to external factors."

Ji Shuqiang smiled and said, "So, we don't just rely on AI predictions, but also combine our own experience. I plan to introduce an adaptive learning system to continuously optimize the model during operation."

Xu Lei thought for a moment and offered his own suggestion: "In this case, we can use part of the asset portfolio as an experimental target and conduct a small-scale trial run first. If the effect is good, we can then promote it on a large scale."

The two quickly developed a detailed experimental plan and selected a portion of New Star Investment's asset portfolio for practical testing.

The entire team worked overtime to integrate the latest AI algorithms into the trading system.

"Start the program." Ji Shuqiang pressed the Enter key, and the numbers on the screen began to scroll rapidly.

A few minutes later, the system began to automatically adjust its holdings, selling off some high-risk assets while increasing holdings of several relatively stable targets.

The data is fed back to the screen in real time, showing a significant reduction in the portfolio risk.

"Look, here." Ji Shuqiang pointed to a key indicator on the screen. "Volatility has dropped by 12%, and the overall drawdown of the portfolio is under 2%."

Xu Lei leaned back in his chair, looked at the results on the screen, and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad. It seems that this system has great potential."

"It's not over yet." Ji Shuqiang manipulated the mouse and pulled up another set of data. "This is the result of the sentiment prediction module. Market sentiment is gradually improving. We can increase our positions appropriately to seize the rebound opportunity."

Xu Lei's eyes flashed with admiration. "You're quite capable, kid. If this system continues to be optimized, it might become the core competitiveness of New Star Investment."

A few days later, the earnings data of the experimental portfolio was officially released.

Although the market remained volatile, the losses of this part of the asset portfolio were significantly reduced, and profitability was quickly restored during the rebound phase.

Xu Lei patted Ji Shuqiang on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Well done. This experiment has shown us the true power of technology and has also made the team trust you even more."

Ji Shuqiang scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "It's all the team's effort. I just used my skills a little bit."

"Don't be so modest." Xu Lei's tone was more approving. "Li Hao didn't make a mistake in choosing you. He was right to bring you to the United States. Next, we need to promote this system to the entire company. This is the key."

"I understand!" Ji Shuqiang nodded heavily, with confidence shining in his eyes.

In the conference room of Xinxing Zhitou, Xu Lei and Ji Shuqiang are preparing the latest experimental data.

The projection screen was lit, and charts and graphs covered the screen densely.

Their conversation had not yet ended when Li Hao's figure appeared on the screen on the other end of the video conference.

"Everyone, what's the situation?" Li Hao's voice came. Although he was in the United States, he still maintained his usual calmness and concentration.

Xu Lei spoke first, concisely summarizing the results: "Ji Shuqiang's AI optimization model performed well. The volatility and drawdown of the experimental portfolio were effectively controlled, especially in the current market environment. The results are particularly significant."

"Really?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows slightly and turned his gaze to Ji Shuqiang. "How did you perform specifically? Let me see the data."

Ji Shuqiang adjusted the projection screen and his fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard.

A series of charts and key data immediately appeared on the screen.

"Mr. Li, this is the return of the experimental portfolio. In terms of absolute returns, our recovery after the black swan event was faster than expected; in terms of relative returns, we have significantly outperformed the benchmark index."

Li Hao took a closer look and nodded gently, with a hint of relief in his voice:

"That's right. Compared to the performance of other market participants, our relative returns are indeed significantly ahead, and we have already returned to the top of the entire market strategy."

"That's right," Xu Lei continued. "Other institutions in the market have all experienced significant drawdowns in this incident, and many have yet to recover from the impact. However, our portfolio, through this optimization system, has not only reduced losses but also seized some rebound opportunities."

"Very good." Li Hao leaned back in his chair, his voice light with ease. "Although we don't pursue absolute short-term returns, being able to outperform the benchmark in this environment proves that our strategy is correct."

"Brother Lei, Ji Shuqiang, your cooperation is truly outstanding." Li Hao paused briefly, then smiled and said, "A seasoned veteran and a rookie with incredible technical talent – ​​I've been looking forward to seeing the results of this combination for a long time."

Xu Lei's lips curled up slightly, and he spoke with a hint of pride, "Li Hao, Ji Shuqiang's algorithm played an indispensable role this time. His technological breakthrough has provided us with more possibilities. Although we were unsure whether it would work at the beginning, the facts have proven that this model has great potential."

"Ji Shuqiang, do you think this system can be promoted on a large scale?" Li Hao asked with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

Ji Shuqiang nodded, his tone full of confidence: "Yes. After this experiment, we have a deeper understanding of the stability and applicability of the model. Next, we only need to optimize some details so that we can apply it on a larger scale."

Li Hao nodded gently, his tone encouraging. "Very good. Next, proceed according to your plan. I want more than just technological leadership; I also want the market to know that our New Star Investment is not only stable but can also find opportunities in crises."

As the meeting progressed, Li Hao gradually grasped the details of the entire process.

The more he looked at the data, the more satisfied he became.

Although the market is still full of uncertainty, the performance of New Star Investment is undoubtedly remarkable.

"From the Black Swan incident to now, our relative returns have regained the top spot among all market strategies. This is not only a result of our technology, but also the result of our teamwork." Li Hao said with satisfaction, "Brother Lei, your steadiness and judgment; Ji Shuqiang, your technological breakthroughs and execution, both reassure me."

Xu Lei smiled and said, "Li Hao, the success of this strategy is not only due to our efforts, but also inseparable from your early planning of the team's layout and direction."

"Don't flatter me." Li Hao smiled, but his tone was more confident. "However, maintaining the top spot is not easy, and the workload will only increase. We must not only consolidate our current advantages, but also prepare for the future market environment in advance."

Ji Shuqiang nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will continue to optimize the model and explore new technical possibilities."

Xu Lei also said in a deep voice: "We will go all out and will not let the advantage of New Star Investment be easily shaken."

At the end of the video conference, Li Hao glanced at the data and spoke with anticipation, "The market will be volatile, but we have the ability and confidence to continue leading the way. Ji Shuqiang, Xu Lei, the tasks ahead will be even more challenging, but I believe you can accomplish them."

"Understood!" The two said in unison, their tone full of determination.

After the video conference ended, Li Hao leaned back in his chair and sighed softly.

Although he is far away in the United States, he can still feel the efforts and cooperation of the team.

He looked at the night view outside the window and said silently in his heart: "New Star Investment is on the right track. Now all we need to do is keep moving forward."

The meeting ended and night enveloped the entire UCB.

Li Hao stood by the window, gazing at the brightly lit campus in the distance, the coffee in his hand gradually cooling down.

The video conference scene just now appeared in his mind. He was pleased with the performance of Ji Shuqiang and Xu Lei, but he also knew that the turmoil in the capital market had not subsided.

"Is this enough?" he asked himself silently in his heart, and then, as usual, he called upon the invisible existence.

Lao Pi's voice arrived as promised, with the same calmness and confidence as always.

Good progress! Ji Shuqiang and Xu Lei have made your team more balanced. But are you really satisfied with this relative stability?

Lao Pi's voice seemed to come from the depths of Li Hao's thoughts.

Li Hao frowned slightly. "There's always a solution to market fluctuations. As long as we maintain stability, New Star Investment's strategy will continue to lead. But... facing this market environment, is there anything else I can do?"
