Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

Economist Li Jiange is well-known to the public because of a "famous" economic viewpoint he once put forward:

The hourly wage for workers is already too high. Cheap labor is our advantage. For the sake of national development, the hourly wage should be reduced to below 10 yuan.

In 2015, when the national average hourly wage was only 15 yuan, many working-class families were already struggling to make ends meet.

Such cold-blooded remarks, which completely disregard the suffering of ordinary people, have undoubtedly stung the hearts of countless individuals.

Therefore, wherever Li Jiange appears, regardless of what facts he discusses.

In the live stream, there are always a lot of netizens joking or even attacking his previous view that "workers' hourly wages are too high".

However, Li Jiange ignored the overwhelming ridicule and attacks from netizens in the live broadcast room at this time!

He remained unfazed and continued his lengthy discourse.

They even criticized the "private capital" that had been frequently praised by netizens for protecting the market during this period, calling it utterly worthless.

"The stock market should be free and should not be influenced by any national sentiment. The recent influx of 'private capital' that harmed Canon and Nikon, seemingly protecting the market, was actually destroying the foundation of our stock market and will make foreign capital hesitant to enter our market."

Originally, Li Jian Ge's previous views on the Liu Group were supported by quite a few people.

After all, many shareholders suffered heavy losses on Liu Group's stock.

They buy when prices are high and sell when prices plummet.

Now that they have just sold all their shares, Liu's Group has announced a merger with Shang'an Real Estate, causing the stock price to surge again.

When you lose money, reason is naturally overwhelmed by emotions.

Therefore, many stock investors agree with Li Jiange's previous statement that it was "capital manipulation to fleece retail investors".

However, when Li Jiange said that the stock market should not be influenced by "national sentiment", it instantly ignited the anger of netizens.

[Professor Li, according to you, if Xiao Rizi (a nickname for a person) is harvesting our韭菜 (a metaphor for easily exploited people), then we should all just let them harvest us?]

If foreign capital is coming with the intention of maliciously shorting the market, why can't we resist?

[Even the government has stepped in to sanction Xiao Rizi; Xiao Rizi's domestic managers have been sentenced. Professor Li really dares to speak his mind!]

[What kind of expert is this? Have they been kneeling for too long and can't stand up anymore?]

[I suggest you thoroughly investigate this professor. Anyone who can utter such shameless words is either a true traitor or a spy!]

A torrent of insults followed.

Even someone as thick-skinned as Li Jiange couldn't quite handle it.

I'm proud to have forcibly closed the comments section.

Afterwards, Li Jiange continued to talk boastfully in front of the camera, as if nothing had anything to do with him.

Meanwhile, Meng Chuan was completely unaware of this.

Early that morning, he was roughly dragged out of bed by Prince Fu to practice his internal energy.

After learning that Meng Chuan no longer needed to keep an eye on the stock market, Prince Fu pulled Meng Chuan into another round of intensive training.

It wasn't until noon that Meng Chuan, covered in dirt and exhausted, was finally able to wolf down the whole roasted lamb.

He listened to Yingdie's report while stuffing meat into his mouth.

"Hongda International has already gone public, but the response has been lukewarm."

Yingdie's eyes were full of heartache as she gently wiped the dirt off Meng Chuan's face, her voice tender.

This is also something that can't be helped.

This was even within Meng Chuan's expectations.

Hongda International was put on the market yesterday at the request of Meng Chuan's son, Qiangzi.

Hongda International is, after all, only in the supermarket supply chain business.

The core business is less than 80 billion.

This was only because Meng Chuan bought the shares from all the previous shareholders at a price slightly higher than the market price, which barely brought the base value to 80 billion.

In today's volatile stock market, Pinduoduo's stock price stands out as a clear example of soaring success.

Then the Liu Group came from behind and its stock price soared.

There have also been a series of changes at the Meng Po Guild, with its artists all engaging in live-streaming e-commerce.

With massive daily cash flow, Meng Po Guild's stock price remains high.

In addition, the non-ferrous metals sector and the financial sector also remained strong.

It's really difficult for Grand International to stand out in such an environment.

However, Meng Chuan didn't care, because Hongda International would have its moment to shine.

At that time, the whole world will remember Grand International, and even be grateful to Grand International.

The reason is unknown, because Hongda International also has a temporarily independent subsidiary, Hongda Medical.

"However, as per your previous request, Hongda International has added your name to the shareholder list. Although it only holds one percent of the shares, I believe it will not be long before someone with ulterior motives 'discovers' it."

Yingdie continued speaking.

Meng Chuan's name is not yet fully associated with "private capital".

Once everyone knows that the private capital is Meng Chuan, Hongda International will definitely come into the public eye because of Meng Chuan.

"How is the handover of Asmai Company progressing?"

Meng Chuan's mouth was full of food, making his speech unclear.

The intense training and qi cultivation left him feeling constantly hungry.

"With Ollie's help, everything is going smoothly. Now Canon and Nikon are more anxious than we are. The non-ferrous metals sector is still rising, and they are more afraid of problems during the handover than we are."

Yingdie explained.

Indeed, if the handover fails, Canon and Nikon will have to repay Meng Chuan at least 2300 to 2500 billion yuan, based on current prices in the non-ferrous metals sector.

Therefore, their chairmen, Matsushita Kudai and Yamamoto Shinobu, personally went to the Netherlands to help with the handover.

If all goes well, it should be completed in the next day or two.

“Very good! After the handover is completed, have the person in charge of Dream Shadow Capital also change the shareholders of Dream Shadow Capital. I only need to hold one percent of the shares.”

Meng Chuan gave the instructions.

He didn't hold any shares in Dream Capital before, just to mislead the UK so that Dream Capital could smoothly take over 02 Company.

The domestic stock market has now reached a fever pitch, and he still needs to prepare some backup plans.

"Are you done yet? It'll be dark if we keep chatting!"

Suddenly, Prince Fu's impatient voice rang out.

The marbles in his hand were squeaking loudly, and his eyes were full of urging.

"Old Fu, even if you're a ruthless capitalist, you have to give me a break, right? It's only noon, I haven't even finished my lunch yet. Give me at least an hour to rest and recover my strength!"

Meng Chuan was still gnawing on a lamb leg, complaining loudly.

At least there was a break during training sessions before, but now there's absolutely no chance to catch your breath.

"You still want to rest? You've already rested for several days. If you continue to slack off like this, your life will be ruined! You started later than others to begin with!"

Prince Fu rebuked him sternly.

Upon hearing this, Yingdie's expression turned strange.

Only she knew that not a single word the Prince of Fu said was credible.

Although Meng Chuan appeared to be resting these past few days, he was being forced to practice Qi cultivation by Prince Fu every day.

Whether it's speed, reaction time, strength, or flexibility, there has been a tremendous improvement.

Take this morning for example. Although Meng Chuan was in a sorry state, his hit rate with the marbles thrown by Prince Fu had dropped from 90% to 60%.

Progress is visible to the naked eye.

It was precisely because of the significant progress that Prince Fu decided to increase the intensity of the training once again.

Only Meng Chuan was completely unaware of his own growth.

However, just as Meng Chuan was about to say something more...

Yingdie's phone suddenly rang.

It's for whale hunting.

Whale hunters rarely call Meng Chuan first, so Meng Chuan quickly pressed the answer button:

"Mr. Meng, the A-share index has exceeded 5200 points."
