"Li Hao!" Xiong Shi's message carried a hint of provocation. "Since you're hoping to compete in a battle of brute strength, we won't easily lose the race for the world. Please pay attention to this week's latest AI investment advisory standard strategy rankings. You'll find that the Rising Star Investment you lead is nothing but a joke, while Dark Moon will achieve the highest returns in the entire market."

Li Hao frowned slightly, thinking to himself, even if a gangster knows martial arts, does he really think that he can't stop anyone?

However, this style is indeed that of Kumashi, with contempt and ridicule going hand in hand, as if trying to influence his emotions.

He hasn't changed at all.

Li Hao calmly replied, "I welcome you to compete using legal means. If you're still using the same tricks as before, I hope you'll change your ways and not make the same mistake again."

"Li Hao, stop talking nonsense. Let's just go with the rate of return." Xiong Shi replied confidently, but his tone suddenly turned cold. "Don't blame me for not reminding you. If Nova wants to defeat Dark Moon, it needs to go all out and adjust its strategy. Otherwise, there's no hope."

Li Hao's heart sank. Xiong Shi's news seemed to imply some changes that had already occurred but were beyond his control.

Although he disdained Xiong Shi's previous actions, he knew that he was also a relatively capable trader.

Dark Moon's rapid adjustment in investment strategy may pose a threat to Nova.

Li Hao thought to himself that these words might be a trick of his competitors.

After all, they are currently extremely strong in "interfering with people's mentality".

But he did not dare to take it lightly and decided to take Chen Kai back to the company to intensify his observation of Dark Moon's investment targets.

"Chen Kai, we need to strengthen our analysis of Dark Moon, especially their recent investment trends." Li Hao said to Chen Kai.

"I understand, Brother Hao." Chen Kai nodded, then turned on the computer and pulled up Dark Moon's investment portfolio.

After some browsing, they found that the investment advisory strategies of Dark Moon, led by Xiong Shi, were all famous for short-selling profits.

And just in these two days, Dark Moon's investment strategy suddenly adjusted drastically, and it heavily invested in short positions in some technology companies in the domestic stock market. The stocks of these companies are currently in a clear upward trend.

"Look, even though the stock prices of these companies are currently rising, Dark Moon is suppressing their short positions. This is clearly an opportunity to cash out, or perhaps there's some hidden trick we can't see."

Chen Kai said, pointing to the data on the screen.

"Perhaps. Their public explanation is that they believe these companies are currently at risk of being overvalued, and they're aiming for a reasonable return to stock valuations. But based on my understanding of their investment managers, I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Li Hao pondered for a moment, vaguely feeling that Dark Moon might be planning something.

"This has indeed been recognized by some people." Chen Kai frowned and began to read the market feedback.

Li Hao pondered for a moment, and a thought suddenly occurred to him: "If Xiong Shi's investment strategy is to short sell, then we need to increase our research on these technology companies and identify their short-term volatility points."

So, Li Hao led the team to work overtime to quickly collect data about these technology companies and conduct in-depth analysis.

They hope to find a point of entry to counterattack by judging market trends.

"We must fully understand the fundamentals of these technology companies and the reasons why Dark Moon is shorting them in order to seize the opportunity," Li Hao emphasized at the meeting.

Chen Kai responded positively: "Furthermore, we can also combine the AI ​​investment advisory system and use data models to conduct simulations and deductions to analyze whether the market is really overestimating the investment performance of these companies as Dark Moon claims."

"Yes, let's combine our advantages to create a complete investment plan." Li Hao became more determined in his idea.

After some hard work, the team finally summarized a large amount of market information in a short period of time and formed a complete analysis report.

In the report, they pointed out the potential risks of Dark Moon short selling targets and prepared to use it as one of the counterattack strategies.

"We must seize the opportunity and release this report in a timely manner to attract as much market attention as possible." Li Hao was determined.

At the same time, Xiong Shi did not seem to stop his actions, and he was still performing various operations in secret.

The research results of Li Hao and his team are also gradually taking shape. It can be said that they are confronting each other head-on, and both sides are preparing for the upcoming market war.

Just then, Li Hao's phone vibrated again. The caller ID showed Bai Tao. He quickly answered, "Teacher Bai, what's going on?"

"Li Hao, I just saw some news about your competitor, Dark Moon. It seems that they have stepped up their efforts in a layout that is completely opposite to yours. You have to be careful." Bai Tao's voice was full of concern.

"I understand, Teacher Bai. We are paying full attention." Li Hao answered seriously.

"Stay vigilant, keep moving forward, and don't forget to manage risks appropriately," Bai Tao urged. "You have our support this time, and I will continue to monitor the situation. Please contact me whenever necessary. Don't forget, Peking University and Tsinghua University will always have your back!"

Li Hao felt a warm feeling in his heart, feeling his mentor's care and concern, which bolstered his confidence. "Thank you, Teacher Bai. I will definitely handle this carefully and strive to gain the upper hand in this competition."

However, this time, the opponent was obviously well prepared. For Li Hao, he had miscalculated for the first time in a long time!

What made him let his guard down at the moment was that the Dark Moon's investors had an extraordinary network of relationships, which Li Hao had underestimated.

Unexpectedly, the foreign interest groups led by Morga Capital actually grasped the latest trends of some international rating agencies.

At the same time, these financial giants, leveraging their market position and recent market operations through agents, have subtly influenced the rating agencies' reports by voting with real money.

This, combined with Dark Moon's previous move to build up a large number of short positions in technology companies, and its actions to attract Li Hao as their counterparty, will undoubtedly make Li Hao and New Star Investment's investment strategy at this time pay a price.

……

Sure enough, not long after, news about the downgrades of ratings of several domestic technology companies began to spread in the capital market on international and domestic financial news platforms and media.

Rating agencies, led by Doomy, have released assessments of some technology companies targeted by Dark Moon and downgraded their ratings.

Among them, the reasons given by mainstream rating agencies also seem to be sufficient.

They actually said that the projects currently being researched and promoted by these domestic technology companies rely heavily on open source technology, lack their own technological barriers and competitive advantages, and that the product monetization capabilities and the willingness to pay of the target user groups are relatively poor compared to similar international customers.

Li Hao was shocked. The fact that such an institution gave such opinions and its influence in the capital market forced him to re-examine the power of Dark Moon and the forces behind it.

As soon as the news of the rating downgrade was announced, the capital market was immediately in an uproar.

Countless hot money and quantitative funds began to sell off across the board, and the market value of many technology companies evaporated in an instant.

Li Hao secretly felt that something was wrong. Xinxing Zhitou had a considerable investment this time, and after the adjustments in the past few days, it happened to be in various companies in the technology sector.

Although they responded quickly by reducing their positions and making adjustments, they were unable to avoid a decline in overall returns.

At the same time, Dark Moon's operations have become even more powerful in the market.

They made explanations in advance and took advantage of this opportunity to quickly surpass Rising Star Investment in standard strategies at all risk levels, becoming the most dazzling company in the market in a short period of time.

Li Hao was both surprised and angry. He didn't expect that Dark Moon would achieve performance improvement in this way.

He realized that his past battle with Dark Moon in the field of public opinion had caused him to unknowingly underestimate Dark Moon's true investment profitability.

In addition, the recent reduction in public pressure faced by Noah and Nova has made him believe that Dark Moon and the forces behind it seem to have really restrained themselves and returned their attention to the investment itself.

What he didn't expect was that this time, Xiong Shi was able to rise rapidly through a series of operations and strategies under a seemingly reasonable operation.

This financial technology company, jointly established by Li Hao's old and new rivals, has such potential that Li Hao has to be extra cautious.

Just as he was thinking about how to respond, Xiong Shi sent another message:

"Mr. Li, how does it feel to be surpassed? I know you're probably frustrated right now, but this is the law of the market! We, Dark Moon, have stood out from the competition through our strength, and yet you actually still dream of being our rival? You're really overestimating your own abilities, like an ant trying to shake a tree, or a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"

"Okay, Mr. Xiong, you are quite capable. You can even give yourself a reasonable disguise. I have to admire you for this! However, if you think that one victory can give you a long-term foothold in the market, I'm afraid you should think twice!" Li Hao replied.

He sneered in his heart, his opponent's arrogant attitude would not affect his determination.

"Alright, Li Hao, don't hold on any longer. It's not too late to learn from our strategy now! Even if we can't catch up, we can still make a decent profit. This will allow us to take orders from clients we don't value later!"

Xiong Shi achieved a temporary victory, but never forgot to mock the former young leader.

At this time, Li Hao was too lazy to pay attention to him and did not reply immediately.

However, since the incident has already happened and it is his side that has suffered a setback recently, Li Hao must adjust his mentality as soon as possible and formulate a new strategy to deal with the current situation.

After putting down his phone, he immediately discussed with Chen Kai in the office the strategic directions that could be adjusted in the future.

Although they are facing difficulties now, they do not intend to back down.

Li Hao's heart was burning with fighting spirit. He had to find a new breakthrough for Xinxing Zhitou immediately!
