Late at night, Chang Le lay on his bed lost in thought.
How should he use the 4 million yuan after taxes?
The current housing prices in Linzhou were such that even good locations were priced at only 2000 yuan per square meter, which meant he could buy around 20 properties; in the provincial capital, Jiangzhou, he could buy around 10.
He could live comfortably for the rest of his life without doing anything, just relying on these properties, reaching a state of prosperity.
Why did he win?
Perhaps it was just chance?
Had little to do with the 'Golden Finger'?
Although the probability of winning the jackpot was 1 in 17 million, the probability could be ignored, but it objectively existed.
How could he prove that it wasn't just chance, but necessity?
Then he would buy another ticket!
What was the probability of winning the jackpot twice in a row?
It should be astronomical, something that was rarely encountered in real life.
If even with astronomical odds, he could still win or even win consecutively, the result was self-evident.
The next day, Chang Le went to another lottery shop and bought another random lottery ticket.
After a day had passed, he returned home after evening self-study and checked the numbers on his computer.
The results showed a perfect match, without any discrepancies, he had won again!
Winning the jackpot twice in a row, and in the same city, had nothing to do with probability, nor chance, but was tightly tied to necessity.
Winning the jackpot twice in the same city would undoubtedly stir up a lottery frenzy in Linzhou.
Perhaps the relevant departments would investigate, but that had nothing to do with Chang Le.
He carefully kept the two lottery tickets, forming a new plan in his mind.
Two days later, on the weekend, Chang Le asked for a leave from his homeroom teacher, Yuan Weijian.
Then he went to the market to buy groceries, returned home, and cooked a sumptuous lunch.
The dishes were all home-cooked dishes, including braised fish, secret recipe pork trotters, simmered winter melon, three-sauce stew, radish meatball soup...
They might not be perfect, but they were definitely above average.
Chang Le had confidence in this.
After all, it was the experience and skills accumulated from 20 years of living alone in his previous life.
He vaguely remembered that many of the "girlfriends" whose names he couldn't recall had praised his cooking.
He had forgotten what those girlfriends looked like.
Human memory was limited, and with time, unimportant people or things would gradually be ignored and blurred.
But he could vaguely remember some common characteristics, such as these "girlfriends" were all engaged in glamorous professions like dancers, models, or "actresses";
They generally had good figures, with prominent curves.
They were closely associated with technology, with big eyes, oval faces, and pointed chins...
Well, they were all Peripheralfemale.
In his previous life, Chang Le was a wandering scum, quite compatible with Peripheralfemale.
In this life, he wanted to be a "good person".
Back to the point.
At noon, when Chang Xueqin and Tan Xiaoya returned home and saw the table full of freshly cooked dishes emitting steam and fragrance, they were both surprised and touched.
Especially when Chang Le came in wearing an apron, carrying the last bowl of soup, smiles appeared unconsciously on their faces, warm and comforting.
Their son had really grown up.
They had lunch.
"Hmm, Lezi, when did you become so skilled at cooking? I've never seen you cook before," Tan Xiaoya tasted the soup and praised.
"Well, I just followed the recipes. Each step has instructions and precautions, just slow down a bit," Chang Le pointed to the "Complete Collection of Home Cooking" on the cabinet.
"Is that so? Can you learn to cook like this from a recipe? Isn't it difficult to control the heat?" Tan Xiaoya seemed skeptical.
"Hehe, maybe it's talent. Most of the men in our Chang family have this talent. Lezi's grandfather was a famous chef in the area," Chang Xueqin was quite proud.
"Humph, even if you have talent, I haven't seen you show it off. Every day, it's me serving you, the talentless one."
"Don't be so modest, you also have talent. In terms of cooking, I think your level is higher than mine."
"That sounds hypocritical. Lezi, help mom serve the rice."
...
After the weekend, Chang Le took half a day off again.
He went to the securities company to open an account, and then went to the bank next to the securities company to handle the third-party fund custody procedures.
He was preparing to invest in stocks.
In his previous life, he had never traded stocks.
His understanding of the stock market was that it was a zero-sum game, and his understanding of stocks was to buy low and sell high.
If someone made money, someone else must lose, there was no concept of mutual benefit.
As a result, his understanding and cognition of the stock market were limited to buying low and selling high.
As for the overall trend of the market, the fundamentals of stocks, technical analysis, and various schools of thought such as candlestick, indicators, patterns, etc., were all at the conceptual level.
He knew the what but not the why.
But this didn't stop him from trying.
In his understanding, lottery, excluding various external factors, was essentially a simple probability problem; and stocks were no different.
Thousands of stocks were listed in the market, and choosing one from them, especially one that was widely watched by institutions and generally favored, was also a matter of probability.
This was the first level of understanding, that the 'Golden Finger' maximized probability and therefore profit for oneself, which was quite abnormal.
The second level, Chang Le had deeper considerations.
That is, the 'Golden Finger' not only acted on oneself but also subtly influenced the external world and other participants, causing others to make choices and decisions that benefited Chang Le.
If this was indeed the case, then it would be even more abnormal, abnormal on top of abnormal.
On the day he opened the account, trading in the stock market was not allowed.
The stock market opened during school hours.
Chang Le's solution was to place an overnight order in advance.
After a rough selection, he chose a garbage stock to place an order on.
For verification, extreme operations were necessary to push for universality through extremization.
So-called garbage stocks were listed with the purpose of raising funds, focusing on hot spots, relying on debt for revenue growth, and speculation based on concepts, often hovering between being delisted and not.
Specifically, they had low stock prices, low trading volumes, and extremely poor core indicators...
These types of stocks only had value in the market as "shell resources," adhering to the philosophy of "I'm poor so I'm right" and "I'm crappy but I'm awesome," waiting for a white knight.
**Stocks.
On the previous trading day, it fell by 3.28%, with a price of 1.26 yuan per share;
The turnover rate was 1.79%, almost to the point of being ignored;
The P/E ratio was -30.56%, indicating significant losses in the company's operations and a lack of profitability.
Of course, indicators were just indicators and couldn't determine the rise or fall of stock prices.
At most, they were reference factors.
After all, in the A-share market, there were countless examples of stocks with the ST label soaring, while stocks with improving performance and increasing profitability performed poorly in the market, trapping wave after wave of retail investors.
Chang Le's funds were only 5000 yuan. He typed on the keyboard and bought 39 lots of ** stocks.
The next day, Chang Le was in class.
His pre-market order was successfully and quickly executed, and he bought 39 lots after the market opened.
**Stocks saw consecutive buy orders of thousands of lots as soon as the market opened, to the extent of being "a sea of red."
Within just five minutes, the bulls were unstoppable, and the bears collapsed, locking ** stocks at the limit-up level without budging.
In the evening after self-study.
Chang Le went home to review.
Wow, without any positive news stimulus, ** stocks formed a long bald-headed candlestick.
From a technical analysis perspective, a long bald-headed candlestick indicated that the bulls had an absolute advantage, with buying pressure increasing continuously and the stock price being pushed higher step by step.
When a long bald-headed candlestick appeared at the bottom of a period of declining prices (not really the bottom, a fairy stock!), it indicated that a period of decline was ending and a rebound was coming, starting a new upward trend.
Indeed, this was the case.
On the second trading day, ** stocks opened limit-up again, with tens of millions of funds queuing up to lock the limit-up.
On the third trading day, limit-up;
On the fourth trading day, limit-up;
On the fifth trading day, limit-up;
On the sixth trading day, limit-up;
......
On the tenth trading day, limit-up.
** Stocks hit the limit-up for ten consecutive trading days, attracting market attention and more retail investors' participation.
Keen-eyed people could see that ** stocks' stock price diverged from its actual performance.
Posts speculating about who was behind the manipulation spread across major websites.
Even ** stocks' management, when "forced" to accept interviews, said:
"The company's stock price has risen too much, and the performance cannot support it. We do not recommend further buying."
Industry insiders, however, claimed, "Currently, there are signs that some investors intend to participate in ** stocks' pre-restructuring plan, increasing market confidence in it."
** Stocks' management denied this:
"The company does not have a restructuring plan. It is purely a rumor spread by some people."
Experts analyzed, "The reason ** stocks' management denies the restructuring plan is simple. The continuous limit-up will increase the cost for investors to enter the market, which will bring great uncertainty to ** stocks' restructuring plan."
The more you deny, the more certain it is, this is the truth of the market.
For retail investors, their minds were simple. They didn't care about technical analysis, didn't believe in positive news, they just aimed at the target and went all-in!
Whoever was hot, they bought, whoever rose, they bought, they enjoyed lifting high and stepping low.
On the 11th trading day, ** stocks encountered resistance after opening and briefly fell back, then quickly surged, closing at the day's highest price, forming a long and thick bald-headed candlestick.
This indicated that the market still favored it, with the bulls still dominant.
On the twelfth trading day, limit-up;
On the thirteenth trading day, limit-up;
......
On the twenty-second trading day, limit-up.
** Stocks' stock price hit the limit-up for a month straight, breaking through the 10 yuan mark.
Chang Le liquidated his position that day, making a profit of 800%, and the funds in his account exceeded 40,000 yuan.
After the market closed that day, ** Stocks issued a notice:
"Considering the current irrational performance of the market, we will suspend trading next week."
