Counterattack starts with controlling probability

Liu Xia smiled slightly. "That is to say, we must not only ensure our own invincibility, but also expose their conspiracy to the market."

"That's right." Li Hao looked at her firmly. "This time, I won't allow anyone to easily shake the foundation of New Star Investment, which is the result of the hard work of so many of us!"

In a short period of time, Li Hao discovered that Dark Moon Technology's malicious slander against New Star Investment was becoming more and more serious.

Especially Wang Xiao and Wu De, who somehow managed to bring Morga Capital into their camp through some unknown connections.

This gave them enough confidence and funds, and created great reputational pressure on Xinxing Zhitou.

He quickly contacted Xu Lei to see if the team was capable of fighting back.

"Brother Lei, can we do a comprehensive analysis of Dark Moon Technology's flaws? Their current attack on us is clearly not just about market competition, but an all-encompassing attack on our image."

There was a hint of chill in Li Hao's voice.

Xu Lei frowned, then revealed an excited expression. "These people are so bold! Since it's our old rival looking for trouble, I'll take care of it. We'll carefully comb through Dark Moon's product flaws and the company's shareholder background to see if we can find any dirt on them."

"Then I'll leave it to you." Li Hao nodded, feeling more confident.

As the counterattack plan against Dark Moon gradually took shape, Li Hao decided to look for some like-minded helpers in the wider technical circle.

He logged onto the internationally renowned forum Redit and posted a message:

"I'm the founder of a domestic robo-advisory company, and I've recently been plagued by some insidious tactics. The company is a new one, founded by a former partner of mine, yet they've chosen to stab us in the back, maliciously smearing us, and even wooing foreign capital groups to become our enemies. Is there anyone willing to help us uncover the truth through technology and assist us in our counterattack?"

In the post, he briefly described his difficult entrepreneurial experience, and specifically mentioned the unfair treatment he had suffered in the past, as well as the current technological innovation and unremitting efforts of his team at New Star Investment.

Unexpectedly, this post quickly attracted a lot of attention and support from netizens.

An anonymous netizen quickly responded: "I'm engaged in data security analysis and have some experience. I can help you analyze their network traces and capital flows. Although I'm insignificant, I hate these kinds of shady people."

Another programmer left a message: "Brother, I support you! I have some skills in web crawling and big data processing. Let's see if I can help you dig up some information. Most importantly, we will work together to help you find evidence."

Li Hao couldn't help but feel warm when he saw these enthusiastic responses.

These technical talents spontaneously gathered online and came together for a common goal. Some even expressed their willingness to assist him in thoroughly investigating Dark Moon's true background.

At the same time, Li Hao did not forget another secret weapon in his hand - Chen Kai.

Chen Kai is not only an investment and trading expert at Xinxing Zhitou, but also a well-known big V in the self-media circle.

Normally, he often shares some financial knowledge and investment experience on his account, and occasionally broadcasts live transactions. He has a large number of loyal fans.

Li Hao told Chen Kai in detail what An Yue had done.

"Chen Kai, this matter is very serious. They not only discredited New Star Investment, but also questioned our investment level. Isn't this equivalent to your level? What do you think?" Li Hao asked.

Chen Kai sneered, "How dare these bastards diss me? I've never used social media to stir up trouble before, but this time, I need to show my fans just how unreliable these guys are."

Therefore, during the live broadcast, Chen Kai did not mention the name of An Yue, but used "a new company recently" as a reference, and talked about the phenomenon that some companies in the industry used the means of discrediting competitors to seek personal gain.

There was a hint of disdain in his tone, which made many of his die-hard fans who often watched his live broadcasts feel indignant.

During the live broadcast, Chen Kai casually mentioned some key weaknesses of Dark Moon Company, such as the unclean background of internal shareholders and questionable technical capabilities.

His die-hard fans soon noticed something was wrong.

Many people expressed their dissatisfaction in the comment section, and some even spontaneously went to Dark Moon’s account to protest, starting the initial public opinion counterattack.

"Everyone, don't be impatient," Chen Kai deliberately said to his fans, "If we say too much now, I'm afraid the other party will be petty. Let's wait and see the company's performance and see if they really have the ability."

These words not only made the fans more convinced, but also further provoked their anger.

At the same time, Li Hao and Chen Kai also quickly mobilized within New Star Investment and launched a series of reputation maintenance plans.

In order to stabilize the market, they decided to adopt strategic means of guiding public opinion and launch an all-round competition between the two parties in terms of company reputation, shareholder background, technical level, investment capabilities, etc.

"Chen Kai, are you sure?" Li Hao looked at him with trust in his eyes.

Chen Kai smiled confidently. "Don't worry, my fans are quite experienced. They not only focus on investment but also have a keen sense of the authenticity of competitors. They will definitely not sit idly by and watch a company that relies on smear campaigns to grab market share."

At the same time, Xu Lei led the team to conduct a detailed technical analysis of Dark Moon, discovered Dark Moon's shortcomings in data processing and algorithm application, and promptly conveyed this information to Li Hao, helping him gain a foothold in the subsequent public opinion war.

"This is not only a business competition, but also a battle of reputation."

Li Hao looked at the various counterattack plans that were being implemented and secretly clenched his fists.

However, things did not go as smoothly as expected.

Wang Xiao and Wu De had obviously learned their lesson after suffering a great loss. Not only were they more secretive in starting a business again, they also received direct assistance from Morga Capital and integrated a group of new technical forces. It was obvious that they were well prepared.

This time, Wang Xiao not only took charge personally, but also specially selected a group of young but technically proficient developers from the market.

It is said that these developers have rich experience in open source projects on Gihub, and some are even well-known contributors to related open source projects.

This time, Morga Capital not only provided financial support, but also directly arranged for a CTO with a good reputation in the industry to be parachuted into the Dark Moon team to drive the progress of research and development. It is obvious that it wants to build a competitive investment advisory platform in a short period of time.

"Wang Xiao really invested a lot of money this time." Li Hao thought about it and realized that this opponent was no longer the enemy who could be easily defeated before.

He immediately contacted Xu Lei, intending to speed up the optimization process of the existing strategy.

After learning about the current situation, Xu Lei immediately took it more seriously and decided to focus all the team's energy on optimizing the core algorithm of Xinxing Zhitou to ensure that it would be invincible in future competition.

He also knew that an opponent as aggressive as Dark Moon should not be taken lightly.

At the same time, Wu De was also working hard to raise funds for Dark Moon.

Although his technical level is average, he is quite familiar with the ways of raising funds.

His past continuous entrepreneurial experience has enabled him to accumulate rich financing resources. This time, he not only found his previous investors again, but also attracted some cutting-edge investment institutions.

Coupled with Morga's secret help, Dark Moon's financing situation was surprisingly smooth, forcing Li Hao to feel a little wary of this new rival.

"Wu De is indeed good at raising funds," Li Hao sighed inwardly, "However, with such a large-scale move, the core of their financing is still profit returns. As long as we can stabilize our market share, they will not be able to attract more funds."

He secretly decided that he must work harder on marketing to undermine Dark Moon's ability to attract financing.

As for Wang Yu, this colleague who used to work at Noah, although he has good technical skills, he was not interested in Li Hao's AI investment advisory plan before.

However, since being publicly humiliated by Li Hao in the market last time, Wang Yu began to re-examine the potential of this industry.

After some calm thinking, he found that the industry prospects of AI+investment consulting were indeed very broad, so he also joined Dark Moon, hoping to find new opportunities in this startup company, and even looking forward to dethroning Li Hao in future market competition.

"Wang Yu's joining has greatly enhanced Dark Moon's technical foundation." Li Hao analyzed the intelligence and sneered, "It seems this guy really won't tolerate being surpassed by me."

He knew that Wang Yu was a competitive person who would never give up until he achieved his goal, but he also knew that Wang Yu lacked strategic vision and would hardly pose a threat in the short term.

However, among the new members of Dark Moon, the one that made Li Hao most uneasy was Xiong Shi.

This market operator has been extremely aggressive in the past, even walking on the edge of the law, just to obtain high short-term profits.

Completely different from Chen Kai's investment style, Xiong Shi's slightly "gray" speculative operations often allow him to make considerable profits in a short period of time, but also leave many risks.

This time, Xiong Shi joined Dark Moon, obviously wanting to stir up a stir in the market, using this high-risk speculative behavior to make quick profits and hit Li Hao's market share.

"Xiong Shi is unscrupulous, even willing to take risks." Li Hao frowned, secretly pondering a countermeasure. "If he takes action in the market, it will definitely disrupt our customers' confidence, and he might even maliciously short sell by creating market fluctuations."

He realized that the existence of Xiongshi might cause volatility risk to New Star Investment's investment portfolio in the short term.

In particular, Dark Moon’s product positioning is similar to that of Nova, and it is very likely to quickly capture the market with low prices, bringing an impact to potential customer groups.

Right now, tomorrow is the policy interpretation meeting of Daxia Futures. Li Hao knows that this meeting is not only an opportunity to meet with Chen Qiming, but also a critical moment to meet with many potential customers and competitors face to face.

Especially in the context of the introduction of new policies, whether it can successfully win Chen Qiming's support and consolidate its position in the industry will greatly affect the future development of Xingxing Zhitou.

"Tomorrow, we must go all out!"
