Counterattack starts with controlling probability

"Would you like to come and support me? Come work at my company?"

Li Hao felt that for someone like Chen Kai, asking directly would be most effective, so he didn't beat around the bush.

"What do you mean? How do you flatter me... Are you going to be your leader? I don't mind that, haha!"

After drinking a few bottles of beer, Chen Kai completely relaxed and started teasing Li Hao.

"What I want to do is a partnership. There's no leader, just partners. Don't you know, it's the flat management model that's been popular these days?"

Li Hao took over the topic and continued to stare at Chen Kai, his eyes seemed to have revealed the words "Agree quickly".

"But I'm used to being free and undisciplined! How should I put it? First of all, although I'm not a billionaire, I'm not short of money. There's no such thing as working for others."

Chen Kai's words revealed a hint of rejection. He then added, "Also, although I'm interested in trading, I have no interest in AI or investment advisors, unless..."

"Unless what?" Li Hao asked quickly.

"Unless you want to compete with me regularly. It won't take up your daytime time, you can just trade at night!"

At this time, Chen Kai finally revealed his inner thoughts. In fact, he was only interested in Li Hao.

In other words, he is only interested in trading geniuses who are better than him.

And so far, no one is stronger than him except Li Hao.

"If this is the only request, then there is no problem at all!" After hearing this, Li Hao understood the situation. He didn't expect that he would have such great charm.

"Besides, I invited you here to optimize the trading model, so the competition you mentioned will definitely happen, and it will be indispensable!" Li Hao continued.

"Okay, but I won't be your partner because I don't want to invest. I'll just work for you, and I'll still do my trading during opening hours." Chen Kai had no objections when he heard Li Hao agree to his request. "As for the optimization model you mentioned, to put it bluntly, it means I'm practicing against that AI model, right? I'm fine with that."

"I didn't expect you to understand it so thoroughly. I thought you had no interest in AI!" Li Hao was secretly delighted when he heard that Chen Kai had agreed. "We have contact information too. I'll get in touch when I get the venue ready!"

"Okay, it's settled. I'll be waiting for Mr. Li to invite me anytime!" Chen Kai replied readily after hearing this.

"It's a deal! Come on, blow up this bottle! We look forward to a happy cooperation in the future!" Li Hao also let go at this time.

It has been a long time since I had a drink with someone late at night.

At this moment, the two men, who had just had a tense fight, ordered another box of beer.

Don’t stop until you’re drunk.

By the time they paid the bill in confusion, it was already dawn.

……

"Come...quickly! Can you drive over and pick me up?"

"Oh... no, you took a taxi to this... the entrance of the Daniu Seafood Stall! Please drive me back to the EWC Hotel! It's the closest one."

Chen Kai actually sent a message to Hu Chao, the general manager of Daxia Futures' sales department. Judging from the content, it seemed like they knew each other well.

Seems a bit overripe, right?!

Besides, at dawn, normal people are sleeping, so who would read the news?

"Okay, Mr. Chen. You're not...drunk again, are you?! I'll be right there! Don't run around! Wait for me!"

Unexpectedly, Hu Chao is also the head of a sales department, with dozens of employees under him, and is considered a big shot.

He actually "spoiled" Chen Kai so much, as if he was always available at his beck and call?

He also called him Mr. Chen, with a hint of respect in his words.

……

When Li Hao regained consciousness, the first person he saw was Hu Chao.

He thought he had been dreaming all day yesterday and was still in the Daxia Futures Sales Department, but he didn't know why he fell asleep.

But when he looked at his phone, the date and time matched his memory.

"Mr. Hu? Huh? Why do I see you again? Wasn't I having a midnight snack with Chen Kai?" Li Hao was still a little dizzy and asked Hu Chao.

"Mr. Li, the sun is out. I was wondering why Mr. Chen drank so much. Turns out you two are together! Don't say anything. I'll take you home."

At this moment, Hu Chao held one person's hand, and the three men walked slowly towards the car that was parked not far away.

As he drove the two back to the hotel, the atmosphere in the car was a little quiet.

As the car shook slightly, Chen Kai fell asleep leaning on the seat without realizing it.

Li Hao turned his gaze to the window. The street was sparsely populated, with only a few cars slowly passing by.

He turned to look at Hu Chao and found that he was smiling meaningfully.

"It's great to be young. You all have huge appetites! Have you been drinking all night?"

Hu Chao sighed softly and glanced at Chen Kai who was already asleep in the rearview mirror.

"Mr. Hu, it seems that you two have a special relationship. I remember the day before yesterday in the sales department, and just now, you called him 'Mr. Chen'?" Li Hao teased.

Hu Chao shook his head and smiled helplessly. "You don't know yet, do you? Chen Kai's background is quite impressive. You know the largest company in Beijing's northern CBD, Universal International Trading Group? What's their surname? It's Chen! They're involved in global commodity trading, with operations all over the world. They're particularly influential in the non-ferrous metals and energy markets."

Li Hao was slightly surprised. "So his family background is so strong, and he happens to be in the spot market? I was wondering, no wonder he has a much deeper understanding of the commodities market than most people."

Hu Chao nodded.

"Isn't it? Chen Kai has been influenced by his family since he was a child, watching their business grow bigger and stronger step by step. He also got involved in the futures market very early, about the same as you, and started trading before he was twenty."

"His father is quite open-minded about him. As long as he does well, he lets him do whatever he wants. Look at him now. He doesn't have to worry about money at all. Trading full-time is just his hobby. His father's company account is opened in our sales department. He handles a lot of hedging orders for industrial clients every year. Honestly, a lot of the sales department's performance is supported by his family."

After hearing this, Li Hao couldn't help but sigh in his heart. No wonder Chen Kai's trading style was so aggressive. It turned out that he had such strong family resources behind him to support him.

No wonder he is so confident.

"He is so independent, really cool." Li Hao smiled, but began to think about future cooperation in his heart.

Hu Chao smiled faintly, his hands on the steering wheel steadily operating the car: "Although Xiao Chen looks cynical, he actually knows what he is doing. He just prefers to do what he likes. His father is quite open to letting him develop freely."

"Well, I can see that. And he is indeed gifted." Li Hao nodded.

When they arrived at the hotel, he and Chen Kai basically fell asleep immediately.

……

When Li Hao woke up in the hotel, the setting sun was already shining into the room through the gaps in the curtains.

He rubbed his sore eyes and felt a little dizzy. The fierce battle last night and the indulgence in the second half of the night had obviously put a lot of strain on his body.

He looked around and found that Chen Kai was no longer in the room.

He picked up his phone and saw an unread message on the screen.

"Li Hao, I'm going home early. I extended my room for one more night last night, so I can check out at noon tomorrow. Please contact me directly when your company is ready."

Li Hao was a little surprised that Chen Kai, who was drunk yesterday, woke up earlier than him and left quietly.

He opened his phone and checked the time. It was already past four in the afternoon.

"This kid walks really fast." He smiled to himself, put down his phone, and suddenly thought of something very important in his mind.

He remembered the task assigned by Lao Pi - to persuade Chen Kai to become a partner of his company.

……

"Laopi, have we completed the mission this time?" Li Hao said proudly in his heart.

"Yes, you will soon feel my increased power. It's already taking effect, but a drunk yesterday didn't know it."

"Okay, stop teasing me. Just tell me what the new ability is, or what upgrades and enhancements have been made?" Li Hao responded.

[First, the number of times I used it has increased from 10 times a day to 20 times a day, which is double the capacity, but this is just a small matter.]

[This new ability is 'Probability Distortion'. It helps you change seemingly impossible things at critical moments - reducing the probability of certain events and their negative impact.]

"That's so confusing! To put it simply, it's about reducing the likelihood of an event happening. Didn't you initially claim it was a probability-enhancing system? Why are you saying the opposite now?"

[You don't understand this, Xiao Li. This is similar to the concept of "negative incentives" in management. It simply increases the probability in the opposite direction.]

"Okay, that sounds pretty cool, but it doesn't feel like a new feature... I'll try it out when I get a chance!"

Li Hao was a little confused for a moment.

But he thought about it, it was just like when he used Lao Pi's ability before to increase his luck value and accomplish some seemingly impossible things.

Now, it can be said that the misfortune value can be reduced, which is quite good.

"But I've been very lucky lately, so I probably won't need to use it very often..." Li Hao pondered, then asked Lao Pi, "Is there a limit to how many times this new ability can be used?"

[5 times a day, but I believe it is enough for you]

……

Just as Li Hao was thinking deeply, he received a new message on his mobile phone.

It was sent by Xu Lei!

Judging from the date, Xu Lei should be returning to Beijing soon.

"I guess it should be his flight information? I didn't expect Mr. Xu to be so impatient. It looks like he's made up his mind. I'm sober now, so I'll pick him up later."

As he thought about it, Li Hao had even begun to conceive the details of their business plan.

However, when he clicked on the message, what caught his eye was: "Li Hao, something has happened to me. I'm afraid I won't be able to return for a while!"
