When the news of Blacklock's "Man vs. Machine" competition reached Li Hao's team, everyone was discussing the significance of this matter and the layout behind it.

Li Hao calmly analyzed the loopholes in the rules of this game and reminded the team to remain vigilant:

"Don't get involved lightly. This competition may seem fair, but it's actually a promotional tool used by Blacklock to build momentum for his robots."

But these words fell on deaf ears to Chen Kai.

"Brother Hao, how can I miss this kind of competition? I'm a trader and have seen all kinds of opponents, but robots? This time I really want to give it a try!"

So, Chen Kai signed up anyway!

A few days later, Chen Kai sent a message: "I am participating in the competition in my personal capacity, so you don't need to worry about it."

Li Hao saw the news, shook his head and smiled: "This kid really can't hold himself back."

However, he did not stop Chen Kai. Instead, he warned him, "Remember, this competition is not only about skills, but also about psychology. Be careful and don't let yourself be carried away by the rhythm."

On the day of the competition, Chen Kai walked into the competition hall of Blacklock headquarters with full of enthusiasm.

As soon as he stepped into the venue, he was shocked by the surrounding atmosphere——

Those standing in the hall are either influential figures in the capital market or legendary masters in the trading world.

They all have a strong aura, and any name of theirs can create waves in the industry.

"This is... a real gathering of masters!" Chen Kai sighed in his heart.

Chen Kai had heard of some of the people present, while others were completely unfamiliar to him, but each of them exuded an aura that should not be underestimated.

A man in a well-tailored suit stood in the corner, talking quietly with his companion.

Chen Kai took a closer look and found that this person was actually the founder of a hedge fund. It was said that he could place thousands of orders a day. He made his fortune through high-frequency trading and now has a net worth of over 100 million yuan.

There was also a tall and thin woman wearing black-framed glasses, who was looking down at the information on the rules of the competition.

She is the chief strategist of a large investment bank and is famous for her courage to "go against the trend". She once went long when the market plummeted and single-handedly saved the returns of the entire fund.

"Brother, are you here to participate in the competition too?" Chen Kai suddenly heard someone talking to him.

Turning around, I saw a middle-aged man who was dressed in ordinary clothes but exuded strong confidence.

He smiled casually, but Chen Kai recognized him at a glance. He was a former trader at a top investment bank in Asia, famous for his accurate trend judgment.

Chen Kai quickly replied, "Yeah, it's my first time participating in this kind of competition, so I'm a little nervous."

The other person patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be nervous. This kind of occasion is full of strong people. Look, that little fat guy over there, he's a 'harvester' who never fails. I heard his winning rate is so high that it makes people question their own lives."

Chen Kai gradually integrated into this circle of experts, and the more he talked, the more he felt that these people were not ordinary people.

He noticed that these masters each had their own characteristics:

Some people are good at arbitrage trading and can quickly find opportunities to buy low and sell high in a complex market environment.

Some people are data analysis fanatics who can study historical market trends down to the second level and use data to find subtle trends.

Some people are born with keen intuition and can accurately seize the opportunity to buy or sell when there is a slight change in market fluctuations.

Everyone is like a knife, sharp and unique.

What shocked Chen Kai the most was that these people made no secret of their abilities. Their genuine confidence seemed to be saying, "Robots? Come on, I'm not afraid!"

The game hadn't even started yet, but Chen Kai was already going through an emotional roller coaster.

At the beginning, he came with curiosity and enthusiasm, thinking that although he was young, he should be able to get a good ranking in this competition with his strong trading skills.

But after actually meeting these people, he suddenly started to back off.

"These people are too strong. Can I really compete with them?" Chen Kai secretly clenched his fists, trying hard to suppress the uneasiness in his heart.

But on second thought, he encouraged himself: "Chen Kai, the fact that you can stand here means that you are qualified to compete with them."

"Besides, besides robots, this competition still relies on brains and luck. Who's afraid of who?"

Before the competition started, Blacklock's CEO personally appeared at the venue.

After a brief speech, he announced the competition rules and judging criteria. The hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone held their breath, waiting for the competition to officially begin.

Chen Kai stood in the crowd, feeling both excited and nervous.

He didn't know what kind of opponent he would face, nor did he know what kind of strength the robot would show, but he was very clear about one thing - this game would be an unforgettable experience in his trading career!

With a command from Blacklock's CEO, the simulation competition officially began! Chen Kai stared at the screen in front of him, feeling a mixture of nervousness and excitement.

"Although it's a simulation, the environment is too real!" Chen Kai muttered, "What's the difference between this and a real market?"

Blacklock's trading simulation environment is perfect. Whether it is market volatility, trading depth, or the reaction speed of counterparties, it is surprisingly similar to the real market.

What is most shocking is that their bionic robots not only react extremely quickly, but can also simulate changes in market sentiment - just like they are really fighting against countless traders.

"This is simply another real market!" a contestant couldn't help but exclaim.

"More than that, I feel like these robots are deliberately creating market fluctuations and forcing us to make mistakes." Another veteran trader frowned, a hint of uneasiness in his tone.

Less than ten minutes into the game, the atmosphere was already tense.

Each contestant was operating nervously in front of the screen, and on the big screen, their respective returns and real-time rankings began to emerge.

Chen Kai quickly analyzed the market data, trying to find a breakthrough.

He noticed that the market fluctuations in the simulation were extremely violent, and the robot seemed to be deliberately creating "false breakthroughs" and "false signals."

"You're trying to force us into taking the bait!" Chen Kai sneered, quickly avoiding a "bait-to-buy" market and turning to short selling.

A handsome profit immediately appeared on his screen.

At this moment, the top masters nearby were also busy:

The founder of a hedge fund uses extremely fast order placement speed to accurately capture arbitrage opportunities when the market fluctuates violently.

In less than three minutes, the yield had risen by 5%.

The tall and thin female strategist simply gave up short-term operations and instead used her financial advantage to directly raise the price of an individual stock, forcing the robot to follow suit, and then quickly reversed the trend and dumped the stock, making a fortune.

The fat "harvester" chose the most radical strategy, directly dispersing funds to multiple targets, using the "wide net" method to suppress the robots, and the yield soared in a short period of time.

"A master is a master!" Chen Kai sighed inwardly, "This competition is not only about technique, but also about mentality. It's really eye-opening!"

However, Blacklock's bionic robot is obviously not a vegetarian.

They constantly disrupt the market rhythm through ultra-fast computing speed and high-frequency trading strategies, causing many participants to make frequent mistakes.

Chen Kai noticed that several players ranked lower in the rankings had begun to anxiously adjust their strategies, apparently being forced into a corner by the robots.

"These robots are so good at finding our opponents' weaknesses!" One trader slammed his hand on the table in anger. "This is totally against the grain!"

"There's nothing we can do. He doesn't need to rest and doesn't get emotional. He's a completely cold and efficient machine." The person next to him shook his head and sighed helplessly.

As the game progressed, the yield rankings on the big screen began to become clear.

Chen Kai stared at his name and couldn't help but tighten his grip on the mouse. "Not bad, still in the top ten. These robots are powerful, but they're not invincible!"

He quickly adjusted his strategy, trying to take advantage of small market fluctuations to make short-term profits.

However, just after he made a profit, the robot seemed to immediately capture his intention and quickly made a hedge, causing Chen Kai's profits to shrink in an instant.

"Are these guys cheating?" Chen Kai gritted his teeth and continued to try unwillingly.

In the competition hall, everyone was concentrating and the atmosphere was suffocatingly tense.

Apart from the clacking of keyboards and the occasional muttered curse, there was almost no talking.

Outside the stadium, the audience was frantically discussing every detail of the game in front of the screen.

"Wow, that female strategist is so strong! Her backhand move just now was textbook-level!"

"The robots are really strong. I'm afraid humans will lose this game."

"Don't worry, I think that young man named Chen Kai is not bad. He just dodged a big fall. He is quite capable."

As the game was halfway through, Chen Kai began to change his strategy.

He realized that if he continued to compete with the robots in terms of speed and funds, he would definitely not win.

So he began observing the robots' behavior patterns, trying to find their weaknesses.

"Although they are fast, they still follow the data model. As long as we find their patterns, we will have a chance to fight back." Chen Kai took a deep breath and his eyes became more focused.

The game is still going on, but Chen Kai knows that this is not only a duel between man and machine, but also a comprehensive test of his trading wisdom and psychological quality.

What he has to do is not only to win the game, but also to prove that human traders will never be easily replaced.

The tense atmosphere still permeated the competition hall, and every contestant was giving his all in front of the screen.

At this moment, Blacklock's CEO stood in the observation room backstage, watching the fierce confrontations through the one-way glass, with a slight smile on his face.

"These trading masters really didn't disappoint me." He muttered to himself, with a hint of calm calculation in his eyes.

An assistant beside him quietly reported, "We've already collected some of the current competition data. The battles between robots and humans have revealed a lot of valuable room for model optimization."

“It seems that the feedback from the competition will be a huge boost to our technological research and development.”

The CEO nodded, his eyes still fixed on the screen in the hall.

He watched the players whose rankings kept changing, as if thinking about a deeper plan.

"The market needs new rules, and investment needs a completely new logic."

He turned around, his back to the screen, his tone firm.

"The outcome and ranking of this match are actually not important. The real game begins when they realize their moves have been thoroughly analyzed."

The assistant was stunned: "So our goal is..."

The CEO waved his hand, interrupting him. "Don't worry, wait until they get involved. Then they'll understand that what we want is never winning or losing, but..."
