Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

Chapter 355 Hacker War

What Meng Chuan didn't know was that while he and Huang Lao were "plotting," Sun Dashan was being severely berated by David, the president of Castle Investment Asia.

Inside the office, the furious roar coming from the cell phone receiver made Sun Dashan's eardrums ache.

"Sun Dashan, you have to give me an explanation! Otherwise, go feed the sharks in the Pacific Ocean yourself! Don't force me to take action."

“Mr. David, this is a setup…” Sun Dashan was interrupted by David’s roar before he could finish speaking.

"It's not that someone set a trap, it's that you're an idiot! The financial sector is the lifeblood of the Chinese stock market, do you think you can manipulate it?"

David's roar was mixed with the sound of documents being smashed:

"Do you really think the national team is just for show? I have confirmed information that Huijin Investment Company has already intervened, and you will be defeated by them!"

This scheme by foreign investors was meticulously planned and they were constantly monitoring Huijin Company's movements.

Because Huijin Company represents the state apparatus.

The original plan was good: to first burst the already overheated startup sector.

After that, everyone joined forces to attack it and divided up this piece of fat meat in the East.

Who knew that Thomson's initial attempt at Goldman Sachs would fail, with private capital secretly supporting the stock, causing Goldman Sachs to lose hundreds of billions.

David was secretly gloating, happy to see Goldman Sachs suffer heavy losses.

Unexpectedly, Castle Investment's subsidiary, Sidu, suffered even greater losses.

The chairman of Castle Investment has already given David, the president of Asia, a severe dressing down.

David, who had been scolded, was determined to get his revenge on Sun Dashan.

All of this was caused by Sun Dashan's greed for credit and recklessness, and his failure to act according to plan.

The startup sector had already crumbled on its own; all Sun Dashan needed to do was add fuel to the fire and it would be a resounding success.

Who knew that Sun Dashan would give up the readily available ChiNext board and turn to tackle the tough nut of the financial sector?

David felt like tearing Sun Dashan apart at that moment.

“Mr. David, I…”

Sun Dashan wanted to explain, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say.

After all, the facts are as they are, and no amount of explanation will help.

"Now you only have one path: hand over your Sun family. If you cannot make up for this loss, you should know what I can do."

David said coldly and ruthlessly.

“Mr. David, my family is the Sun family…”

"I don't want to hear your explanations, I only want results. If you don't earn 2000 billion tomorrow, you can go die."

David hung up the phone immediately after speaking.

Sun Dashan collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon.

2000 billion—that's the amount you'd have to short the Sun family's stock to get that money!

The Sun family was already in dire straits; if they were to embezzle another 2000 billion, they would be effectively defunct.

Sun Dashan had originally hoped that he could gain a higher status through his own efforts and help the Sun family!

In the end, because of his mistake, he now has to "sacrifice" the entire Sun family.

"Meng Chuan, it's all your fault, it's all your fault, you deserve to die!!"

Sun Dashan roared helplessly.

If it weren't for Meng Chuan, he wouldn't have been so eager for quick success and instant benefits, and he wouldn't have ended up in his current predicament.

Meanwhile, in the underground trading room of Mar-a-Lago, Meng Chuan stared intently at the fluctuating stock market data.

After the market opened in the afternoon, it appeared calm on the surface, and foreign capital did not cause any further trouble.

However, many retail investors were already frightened by what happened in the morning, and many began to withdraw their funds, causing a certain degree of decline in various sectors.

However, the magnitude of the decline is acceptable.

Meng Chuan will not make a move unless there is a major drop in prices.

Meng Chuan, relieved to have a break, began listening to the trader's morning report on the day's results:

"Young Master, all the funds in the ChiNext market have been withdrawn. We invested 100 billion, but only withdrew 70 billion of the principal. However, we made a profit of 80 billion from short selling! We still have a net profit of 50 billion."

Meng Chuan nodded in satisfaction at the trader's report.

The ChiNext board has completely collapsed, leaving many people with nothing, but it has enriched Meng Chuan.

Meng Chuan heavily invested 3400 billion yuan in the financial sector this morning, and he can't withdraw it in the short term, otherwise the financial sector would definitely plummet.

Suddenly, amidst the harmonious atmosphere of the entire basement, the sixteen-year-old hacker group leader, "Dao," abruptly looked up, his pupils shrinking:

"Young Master! Foreign hackers are attacking our firewall!"

Behind Dao, seven hackers tensed up, their fingers flying across the keyboard.

Meng Chuan strode to the back of the path, where data streams poured down the screen like a waterfall, and red and blue code jumped wildly.

Unfortunately, Meng Chuan couldn't understand it at all.

However, judging from the expressions of Dao and the others and their rapidly moving fingers, it was not difficult to see that the situation was extremely critical.

"Hold the line first. If there's an opportunity, see if we can launch a counterattack. I want to see who has the guts!"

Meng Chuan said solemnly.

"They are quite strong; I need time."

He said something, then growled at his teammates:

"Activate mirror defense. I'll go find their command node."

His hands moved across the keyboard, leaving afterimages.

Instantly, the trading room's server beeped, and thousands of virtual defense nodes lit up on the network.

Meng Chuan could only watch helplessly, as this was completely outside his area of knowledge, and he could only hand over command to Dao.

"This method is among the top five 'zeros' on the dark web!"

Dao suddenly ripped off his headphones and sneered:

"Don't rush to break her attack. Hold her off and buy me three minutes. She can't escape!"

Seeing Dao's confident expression, Meng Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.

On the screen, the code battle between the two sides has reached a fever pitch.

Sudden.

"found it!"

Dao roared, and a line of golden code appeared. As Dao pressed the Enter key, it directly attacked the enemy's main server.

Meanwhile, in an office far across the ocean, a blonde woman was frantically typing away at her computer.

Two white men were standing behind her.

If Sun Dashan were here, he would recognize one of them, David, the president of Castle Investment Asia, who had just finished a call with Sun Dashan.

The blonde woman initially appeared relaxed, as if she were playing cat and mouse, but the next moment, she revealed a look of terror.

The next moment, a large character "道" appeared on her computer screen.

This character is elegant and full of Taoist charm.

Upon seeing the character "道" (Dao), the blonde woman exclaimed in surprise:

"Oh no, it's the Dao! Boss, we've been..."

The blonde woman cried out in alarm, but before she could finish speaking, she hurriedly got up and rushed towards the power source.

But everything was too late.

Because a sentence suddenly came from her computer speaker:

"Where the Tao leads, all things submit. Zero, you have lost!"

Immediately afterwards, sparks flew from the blonde woman's computer, and a large amount of white smoke billowed out...

Inside Mar-a-Lago, Dao put down his headphones and said to Meng Chuan:

"Young Master, I have successfully completed my mission and obtained all the data from the other party's computer."
