Campus Cultivation Master-Chapter 365 - 0366: Open and Aboveboard Revenge [Part 2]

Of course, aside from these messages, what’s even more crucial is that in the capital market, someone had already made a move.

The USA is a market that places capital above all else. Once the first person makes a move, the wolves that smell blood will swarm in.

And not to mention Robert, the Godfather, who kept fanning the flames from behind.

From the opening of the market until now, it’s been a continuous plunge. And in the USA stock market, there are no limits to how much stocks can fall, so all the stocks under Xinghai Capital plummeted more than thirty percent in less than an hour.

Xinghai Capital’s main funds were indeed not in the USA, but the USA is after all a weathervane.

When the USA stock indexes started to plummet, it also affected all the stocks under Xinghai Capital in Asia.

The tragedy that followed seemed to have been anticipated by someone on the market.

Across all of Asia, wherever Xinghai Capital’s stocks were listed, there was a frenzy of short selling against Xinghai Capital.

In just one hour, the market saw over three billion dollars in short-selling funds.

This further exacerbated the panicked selling by retail investors. The stock prices dropped so quickly that even the executives at Xinghai Capital were caught off guard, and the value fell below the short selling price point.

"This time, a fivefold profit is already in my hands," An Wenxing said with a pleased smile as he watched the real-time stock prices on his computer screen.

"Had I known it would be this insane, I would have gone straight for ten times the profit," Chu Feng remarked, looking at the still uncontrollably plunging prices.

An Wenxing replied, "That would have been too risky and beyond our acceptable range."

Chu Feng, draping his arm over An Wenxing’s shoulder, said, "I was just saying that off the cuff. After this time, the funds in my hands will have reached the requirement set by your father. I’m also ready to bring Rongrong back."

This time Chu Feng’s funds had increased fivefold. Along with his real estate and personal property, he had now surpassed the two conditions set forth by An Rongrong and An Wenxing’s father.

"Bring Rongrong back sooner," An Wenxing appeared to dislike his father’s approach as well.

Chu Feng said, "Don’t worry, I’ll bring her back soon."

At that moment, in Xingzi’s office, who was still pondering how Chu Feng would counterattack, Xingzi received an urgent report from her subordinates.

"Miss, this is the latest news we got from the headquarters. Xinghai Capital’s stocks in the market have evaporated nearly three billion USA Dollars in just a moment. And because of massive funds shorting, we must choose to repurchase, which may incur an even higher cost," her subordinate reported hastily.

"What! What on earth happened?"

Xingzi’s face changed upon hearing her subordinate’s words.

Her subordinate said, "The headquarters also doesn’t know what happened. Since the opening of the USA stock market, our Xinghai Capital has been under attack by the second and third largest consortia in the USA, along with several smaller consortia. The stock price plummeted, which directly affected our stock prices in the Asian capital markets. Then, a series of events occurred."

"What did the family say?" Xingzi knew that being shocked was no longer useful since the incident had already happened.

"The headquarters has already investigated; all the short-selling funds come from Huaxia’s East River. The headquarters wants to know if you have offended anyone. If reconciliation is possible, that’s the best option. Then repurchase our own shares, otherwise, our losses will be severe," her subordinate relayed truthfully.

Upon hearing her subordinate’s words, Xingzi slumped into her chair.

She already knew who was behind all this, in Huaxia, in East River; she had only offended one person, and that person was Chu Feng. freewebnøvel.coɱ

What she hadn’t expected was that Chu Feng had such formidable power to directly affect the USA stock market, making the top two of the three consortia in the USA so willing to assist him in attacking her family’s Xinghai Capital.

One must know that such an attack is a battle to the death. The risk involved is also very high. If the relationship wasn’t very close, the USA consortia would certainly not have helped Chu Feng.

"In the end, I still underestimated you," Xingzi muttered softly to herself as she looked at the telephone on her desk.

"How much will the short-selling cost us?" Xingzi asked.

Her subordinate glanced at the notebook in his hand and replied, "At least one hundred and fifty billion Huaxia Coins. And that’s a conservative estimate. If the situation continues to deteriorate, the loss could be even greater."

Hearing the enormity of the loss, Xingzi also trembled.

Such a massive loss, even for Xinghai Capital, the most renowned consortium in Asia, was unbearable.

"I gave you a crippling blow, and you taught me a lesson worth one hundred and fifty billion. It seems that in the end, I’m the one who’s lost," Xingzi felt truly defeated for the first time.

"Alright, you can go now, and tell the family that I will handle this matter. Also tell them that I will take full responsibility for this loss, and I will compensate for it within three years." Xingzi was confident in herself; one hundred and fifty billion was a lot, but she believed she could make up for this gap in the shortest possible time.

After the servant left, Xingzi reluctantly dialed Chu Feng’s number.

Chu Feng, who was just celebrating with An Wenxing and the others with champagne, suddenly had his phone ring.

Chu Feng glanced at the unfamiliar number and directly hung up.

But the number kept calling stubbornly, and after three consecutive rings, Chu Feng finally answered it.

"I don’t want insurance, loans, or to apply for any certificates, nor do I have a religion. If you’re calling for emotional support, speak up, if not, just hang up yourself," Chu Feng spoke nonchalantly.

"Mr. Chu, this is Xingzi," Xingzi said.

"Xingzi? Are you selling apricots? That’s quite fresh. How much are you selling your apricots for?" Chu Feng feigned innocence.

Xingzi, mustering patience, said, "Mr. Chu, I hope we can have an equal conversation."

Chu Feng replied, "You, a seller of apricots, want to talk to me on equal footing? Haven’t you heard that the customer is God? Do you think as a God, I can be equal to you?"

After a few seconds of hesitation, Xingzi said, "Mr. Chu, I admit that I’ve lost to you this time. What are your terms? Just state them."

When Chu Feng heard Xingzi admit defeat, he pretended to suddenly realize and said, "So it’s Miss Xingzi from Xinghai Entertainment Company. I thought you were an apricot seller. What’s the matter? Let’s talk now."

Chu Feng was not someone who would take a beating lying down. He would retaliate. But mere retaliation was not enough. Chu Feng wanted you to admit defeat with your own words; otherwise, what was the point and pleasure in revenge?
