At the headquarters of Xinxing Zhitou, the team is cheering for the victory in the last round in the capital market.

On the screen, the share prices of Feiyue Media and other core targets rose steadily, and capital flows returned to normal.

Xu Lei stood in the conference room and said to the team with a smile: "This time, we not only held our ground, but also taught Godma Capital a lesson."

Ji Shuqiang rarely smiled. "Yes, this system finally didn't let us down. It seems that our technology has reached an internationally leading level."

Li Hao sat in the main seat and nodded slightly, but his tone was not too relaxed: "Victory is temporary. Godma Capital will not give up. If there is a loophole in our defense, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Everyone nodded, and the atmosphere was filled with a hint of nervous excitement.

However, things soon changed.

During a mock test a few days later, Ji Shuqiang suddenly frowned.

He stared at the data on the screen and muttered to himself, "Something's wrong. How could the parameters of the trading model be exposed in advance?"

He retrieved the transaction log and carefully checked the records of each test transaction, and found that certain key parameters actually appeared in the unauthorized test account.

This kind of anomaly cannot be a system failure, it can only be caused by deliberate leakage.

Ji Shuqiang immediately reported the situation to Xu Lei: "Mr. Xu, I suspect our core strategy has been leaked."

Xu Lei's expression suddenly changed: "Are you sure?"

"The test data doesn't lie." Ji Shuqiang pointed at the screen. "Only the core team knows the parameters here. This is definitely an internal leak."

Xu Lei was silent for a moment, then called the team together for a small emergency meeting.

The atmosphere in the conference room was so oppressive that it was suffocating.

Xu Lei glanced around coldly and said, "As you all just heard, there are signs of a core strategy leak. Although there is no conclusive evidence at the moment, I must remind everyone that this kind of thing must never happen again."

"Leak? We are all members of the team, how could anyone do such a thing?" said a team member dissatisfiedly.

"Yeah, we've been working together for so long, how could anyone betray us?" another person echoed.

Xu Lei's expression grew increasingly grim. "I know you all don't want to believe it, but the data doesn't lie. If you don't want the problem to escalate, please cooperate with the investigation."

After the meeting, the atmosphere in the team became noticeably more tense.

Some people whispered about the situation, others began to be wary of their colleagues, and cracks began to appear in the team that had once worked closely together.

When Xu Lei reported the situation to Li Hao, Li Hao's first reaction was anger.

"The situation we worked so hard to build is being taken advantage of just like that?" Li Hao slammed the table hard, a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"Anger is useless," Xu Lei said calmly. "We must find the traitor, otherwise the entire team will be consumed by internal friction."

Li Hao pondered for a moment and nodded: "I will handle this matter personally."

Instead of making the matter public, he decided to investigate secretly.

He retrieved the login records, test data, and communication records of all team members, and even checked everyone's equipment through technical means.

A few days later, he finally found some clues -

An employee's test account interacted with data from an external IP address without authorization.

This kind of behavior is absolutely prohibited in the internal regulations of New Star Investment.

Li Hao asked Ji Shu to obtain all the operation logs of this employee and verify the data repeatedly.

When all the evidence pointed to one conclusion, he felt mixed emotions.

"How could it be him..." Li Hao muttered to himself.

This employee was none other than one of his most trusted technical backbones.

This employee participated in the early development of Xinxing Zhitou, helped the company solve technical problems many times, and even made a lot of efforts at critical moments.

Li Hao decided to meet him alone.

In the conference room, facing Li Hao's questioning, the employee initially denied it, but when Li Hao produced conclusive evidence, he finally broke down.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Li..." He lowered his head, his voice trembling, "I have no choice. Godma knows something I can't say out loud. If I don't do what they ask, my family will be in crisis..."

Li Hao looked at the employee in front of him with complicated eyes.

Anger, disappointment and heartache intertwined.

"Do you know what you've done?" Li Hao's voice was low and cold. "You betrayed not only me, but also the entire team."

The employee knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face. "Mr. Li, I know I was wrong... I'm willing to make amends. I just ask you not to call the police."

Li Hao was silent for a long time, and finally said coldly: "I will consider how to deal with you. But from now on, you are no longer a member of New Star Investment."

Afterwards, Li Hao convened a meeting of all employees. He did not mention the specific leaker, but emphasized the company's crisis:

"Our competitors not only come from the market, but may also be right next to us. But I hope everyone understands that trust is the most important foundation of a team."

The team members all lowered their heads in thought, and the originally tense atmosphere eased slightly.

Ji Shuqiang asked Xu Lei privately: "Can Mr. Li really get over this incident so quickly?"

Xu Lei sighed. "Mr. Li may appear fine on the surface, but everyone knows he must be feeling bad. I hope this incident will make us more vigilant."

At the same time, Li Hao redeployed the security mechanism of the core strategy and strengthened authority management.

Afterwards, Li Hao called out the employees who had betrayed the team individually.

The employee opposite sat with his head down, his hands clenched into fists, as if trying to suppress his inner fear and anxiety.

His voice was low and a little hoarse: "Mr. Li, I know... I can't hide it anymore."

Li Hao didn't respond immediately, but pushed a glass of water in front of him: "Tell me, I need to know everything."

The employee spoke slowly, his tone filled with guilt and regret: "When Godma Capital approached me, I actually had no hesitation. The company trusted me so much, I couldn't do such a thing.

"But they offered... a 'chip' that I couldn't refuse."

Li Hao raised his eyebrows slightly: "What chips?"

"They know some of my family's secrets." The employee lowered his head, his voice trembling. "My wife failed in her previous business venture and owed a large sum of high-interest loan debts. Godma Capital later acquired the debts from those creditors."

"Also... my father was once involved in a financial case. If this matter were to be exposed, he would most likely go to jail."

Li Hao's fingers tapped lightly on the table, his brows furrowed even deeper. "So you chose to betray the entire team and leak our core strategy?"

"I had no choice..." The other party raised his head, his eyes filled with pain. "They told me that I only needed to hand over a few sets of data to repay my debts and promise not to disclose my father's affairs. I knew I was wrong, but at the time I really... had no other choice."

Li Hao stared at him, his tone cold: "If you really have a change of heart, why are you confessing now?"

"Because..." The employee took a deep breath, "I recently realized that Godma Capital won't let me go easily."

"They asked me to continue to submit more data, but I couldn't do it. These past few days, I couldn't sleep at night. Every time I saw the team working overtime to improve the strategy, I felt like I was not a human being."

He raised his head, his voice filled with determination: "I am willing to tell you everything, including Godma Capital's next plan. I know my sins are grave, but if I can make up for even a little bit, I am willing to do it."

Li Hao was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and said, "Okay, then tell me everything you know."

The employee explained Godma Capital's operations and plans one by one:

Godma Capital plans to further suppress market confidence by shorting New Star Investment’s core targets on a large scale during the next financial reporting season.

They are spreading false information through some financial media, claiming that Xinxing Zhitou's capital chain is tight.

Godma Capital used the leaked strategy to predict the capital allocation direction of New Star Investment in advance during the transaction and accurately suppress the market price.

"They think our strategy has been completely exposed, so they'll continue to exploit this data," the other party whispered. "But I believe that as long as we do the opposite and redesign our strategy, we can definitely fight back."

Li Hao nodded, his eyes becoming calmer. "Very good. From now on, you will fully assist the team in fixing strategic loopholes and inform Xu Lei and Ji Shuqiang of Godma Capital's plan."

The next day, Li Hao convened a meeting of the core team and publicly explained the issue of the traitor, but did not reveal the specific identity.

"Our team has encountered an unprecedented crisis." Li Hao stood at the conference table, his gaze firm. "The leaker has confessed to me and is willing to cooperate fully with us to recover the losses. Now is not the time to pursue responsibility. What we need is to quickly correct our strategy and disrupt Godma Capital's plan."

Xu Lei said solemnly, "We can reverse the data and create a false strategy path to induce Godma Capital to make a wrong judgment."

Ji Shuqiang's eyes lit up: "If they act according to the fake data, we can take advantage of the time difference and launch a precise counterattack in the market."

Li Hao nodded. "Very good, then we'll act accordingly. We don't have much time, but as long as we work together properly, we can make Godma Capital suffer the consequences."

After the meeting, Li Hao called the employee aside.

"You know what you did, right?" Li Hao's tone was calm, but every word stabbed into the other person's heart like a knife.

"I know," the man replied in a low voice. "I won't ask for forgiveness. I just want to do my best to make amends."

Li Hao looked at him, paused for a moment, and said with a hint of relief: "Making amends is never done with words, but with actions. This time, you must go all out and show some sincerity."

The other party nodded vigorously: "I will definitely do it."

Looking at his leaving back, Li Hao felt extremely complicated.

He knew that this incident was not only a crisis of trust in the team, but also a severe test of his personal management ability.

Although the crisis was temporarily under control, he understood that the battle was far from over.

With the team's efforts, New Star Investment successfully repaired its core strategy and defeated Godma Capital's suppression in the next round of market competition.

The employee who leaked the information ultimately chose to leave the company, but before leaving, he bowed deeply to Li Hao and said, "Thank you for giving me the opportunity to make amends. I will never forget the lesson I learned today."

Li Hao didn't say much, just nodded: "From now on, no matter where you are, you must remember your choice today."

Although the crisis was resolved, Li Hao became more alert.
