On the NASDAQ trading floor, traders sit in their seats in twos and threes, drinking coffee, closing their eyes, whispering silently, or placing their mascots, and even a few are doing warm-up exercises, waiting for the opening gong to sound.

Finally, when the time came, the hall was buzzing with people, with ringing telephones, screaming, running back and forth, spitting out fax paper, and making professional trading gestures...... However, many traders are somewhat distracted and are eyeing today's star stock - Microsoft.

As soon as the market opened, it was quietly $87.42 and stood still like a solitary prince, as if to mock the conservative timidity of the experts. In less than a second, Bill Gates' assets were successfully sent to the $200 million mark, and the other founder of Microsoft, Paul Allen, became a new billionaire.

After about five minutes of stalemate, there was only a very small trading volume in the market, and suddenly, like riding on a rocket, the stock price began to rise upward, without stopping to exceed the 90, 95, and even 100 integer mark, 105, 110...... A minute later, in the midst of exclamations, he successfully broke through the 120 mark, and Bill Gates also joined the $300 million club.

"It's crazy, it's crazy!" some traders sighed aloud as they looked at the stock price.

Unsurprisingly, trading volumes began to expand, with a wave of profit-taking orders, and Microsoft's stock finally halted its frantic rally. However, many traders remained calm, and their eyes were all fixed on Tony's trading seat. It's quite weird, there is no movement, and I also heard that early in the morning, Tony's important assistant Kuri was swept away without warning, and now, Tony's company is still closed, and all the employees don't know what they are busy with.

And in Tony's office, Tony and they were talking on the phone. And these calls, which were deleted, were made by those shareholders who were less resolute and more tactful in their rejection at the time of the Thanksgiving takeover.

“...... Sir, Microsoft's stock has exceeded $100, and you and I both know that this is not normal, stimulated by the news that the respected Mr. Bill Gates has become a billionaire. So there is a high probability that there will be a retaliatory plunge that will follow......"

“...... Sir, all you have in your hands are restricted stocks, what does the current surge have to do with you? When the lifting period has passed, the stock price has long since returned to stability, do you still naively think that the stock price will always be above $100?......

“...... Yes, we will buy it at $100 and promise that if 80% of today's closing price exceeds $100, we will do so at a higher price. How?......"

“...... Understood, understood. My client, White Lotus Network International, has pledged that it has no intention of challenging the leadership of Mr. Bill Gates and Mr. Allen, and that the company's operations will not be affected in any way. We also understand and appreciate your interest in Microsoft. Remind you that White Lotus Network International is now one of the top major shareholders of Microsoft......"

“...... We've asked you, and if you sign up now, we can promise you $100 or 90% of the closing price......"

“...... Yes, you can consider making a decision after today's market close. We'll get back to you. Thank you ......."

“...... Sir, we kindly ask you to keep it confidential for the time being. ”

“......”

There are no secrets on Wall Street, especially the group of wealthy and well-connected dealers, who soon learned that Tony had raised the purchase price and began to target the restricted shares in the hands of those Microsoft executives.

Half an hour later, the over-the-counter funds began to pour in, like a blowout, and Microsoft stock began to soar, 160, 170, 180...... , because those traders know that the White Lotus Network International is already very close to 5% in its hands, and once it exceeds, it will be suspended for a day and an announcement will be made. With such a good opportunity, how can you not grab a ticket before the suspension?

However, Microsoft's circulation is too small, and the stocks that are scattered are locked up by Jing Jian. Although there were some profit-taking orders, it was simply not able to cope with such a large number of buying, and amid cheers and admiration, the stock did not turn back to more than $200, and there was no sign of stopping. In 1 hour and 21 minutes after the market opened, Bill Gates's assets successfully exceeded the $500 million mark......

Relying on inertia, it rushed up to $246 before the stock price stopped slightly. Perhaps it was temporarily exhausted and began to consolidate up and down this price. By the end of the morning, the stock price was still above $230.

In Los Angeles, Jiang Zhijiao is both annoyed and surprised. After the market opened, he only hesitated for a moment, and then saw the stock price rush past $100 like a wild horse, so he sold it all without hesitation. Unexpectedly, it would then rise as much as double. Mr. Wong, who was in the hotel, was much happier, having dumped it at the $130 mark. And Uncle Tang in San Francisco had the last laugh, because the news was delivered through the broker, the time was a little later, and it also gave the stock a chance to rise, and he was able to sell at a price of more than $200......

In the apartment, Cao Haiyan tied a tie for Jing Jian, and the two were ready to go out to eat. Cao Haiyan smiled and said to Yanyan: "How much did you throw in the morning?"

Jing Jian smiled: "Hehe." With 0.86% of the outstanding shares, Caleb is professional and does not attract the attention of the market. Not counting the 1.1 million commission in the early stage, I spent less than 11 million on the acquisition. Now it's up five times, so why don't you sell it? If there are so many $200 buying orders in the afternoon, I'll give as much as they want. However, Tony seems to have been somewhat useful occasionally, and was able to initialize a 1.21% purchase intent for restricted shares. ”

"So, Microsoft won't rise that high in the future, right?" Cao Haiyan asked again.

"In the long run, it will definitely be a high-quality stock. But in the short term, the market enthusiasm has been completely squeezed out by me. Microsoft's growth in the next one or two years will be consumed by me alive on a Thanksgiving Day. Hehe, after that, it's time for a long-term consolidation. However, Mr. Bill Gates should thank me, who became a billionaire of $500 million many days earlier. ”

Jing Jian's judgment was correct. In the history of his previous life, after Bill Gates became a billionaire, it took only eight years to become the richest man in the world with a net worth of $12.9 billion. It may seem terrifying, 129 times in 8 years. But with some mathematical foundation, it can be calculated that 2 to the 8th power is 256 times, in fact, Microsoft's stock price does not even double every year. And Bill Gates only became a billionaire in 87, and now it is under the manipulation of Jing Jian, which has been advanced by several months.
