After Investment Decision Committee passed the first batch of buying decisions based entirely on the institutional framework since the epidemic,
Zhao Chen walked alone for a long time along the riverside trail of Jiangbeizui.
He started from the downstairs of Henglong Headquarters and walked along the river to the bottom of Chaotianmen Bridge.
Then he turned back and walked back again.
The river breeze in March is still cool, and the whistles of freighters on the river are intermittent.
The lights on both sides of the strait were dimmed into a blurry band of light in the mist.
He has walked this road countless times - Short Selling Henglong Holdings walked it that night,
Bitcoin walked by US Dollar that night, New Year's Eve and Shen Zhiyi walked side by side--
But today he walked very slowly, so slowly that he could hear every clear echo of his leather shoes on the stone road.
When Investment Decision Committee ended the meeting, Shen Jue said something at the door of Meeting Room:
"In the past, when Henglong encountered a major incident, we needed to call you as soon as possible to confirm the direction.
There will be no need for it in the future - the system you built is already answering most of my questions for me.
You don't have to worry about everything now. Henglong can still go on even if you are not around.
This may be the most anticipated Henglong by the market."
What he replied at that time was "This is also my purpose."
But at this moment, he was walking alone by the river, and what was playing over and over in his mind was not the words Shen Jue.
It's what he said on Investment Decision Committee -
"Henglong is not mine, Henglong is this system."
When these words came out of his mouth, Meeting Room was very quiet.
He thought he was doing Strategy Department at the time, but now he was walking alone by the river,
Only then did I realize that those words were not just meant for the people present - he was also meant for himself.
He thought of that autumn when he woke up again.
In the lecture theater of Zhengfa University, the sun shines slantingly from the high windows.
He was sitting by the window, with a dog-eared Company Law textbook spread out in front of him.
I have all the major events in the next few years in my mind--
When will Bitcoin increase to 17,000?
When can Tesla be bought, and when will Nvidia fall to the bottom--
Everything is accurate to the month, like a high-precision map printed in advance.
He won on this map for several years.
Short Selling Henglong Holdings, Bitcoin Clearance profit 7.94 billion US Dollar,
The heavy warehouses Tesla and Nvidia, on the day 178 US Dollar, they burned out all the ammunition and caught the plate--
Every step he took was on the most precise coordinates on the map, and Wall Street was stunned with every step he took.
But there is a coordinate on the map that is deflected by butterfly wings.
New Delhi Flu--That was not the first stop he remembered for the global public health crisis.
The flapping wings of the butterfly made him realize for the first time,
The map in his hand is not the eternal truth,
It is only a reference document, and reference documents can be modified.
He stopped at Chaotianmen Bridge.
The river breeze passed between the bridge piers, bringing a moist coolness.
He suddenly thought - what he won was not knowing the answer in advance, but his ability to find a way out every time he was forced into a corner.
He took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Shen Zhiyi:
"I probably know it. No matter how the river turns, the oar is in my hand and the sail is in your hands."
After sending it, he didn't wait for a reply, turned the phone over and held it in his hand, and continued walking along the river.
Over the years, he has always believed that prophetic memory is his core ability.
Bitcoin He was sitting alone in the office on the day of clearance,
In front of me is the transaction confirmation letter from the exchange. There is an extra 7.94 billion US Dollar in the account.
What he was thinking at the time was - this is the greatest return a map can bring.
Tesla 178 US Dollar He was sitting alone in Manhattan's hotel that day,
In front of me are Margin Call Notice from four investment banks, with only Two Hundred Million and more than US Dollar left in cash on the account.
What he was thinking at the time was - if the coordinates on this map were wrong, Henglong would really be doomed.
But he never thought that Short Selling Henglong Holdings was the time when he deduced one by one on Board of Directors to counter Contingency Plan several months in advance, not relying on the map.
Bitcoin That time when he repeatedly asked himself "Have he reached that line" at every stage high point, his restraint did not rely on the map.
178 That time when he dismantled the pledge clauses of four investment banks one by one and dared to spend all the last ammunition, he did not rely on the map.
The map only told him "where", but "how to go" - he figured it out step by step.
He walked to the end of the riverside trail, turned around and looked at the way he came.
Chaotianmen Bridge's steel rope shines silvery white in the night,
The freighter on the river has sailed out of sight.
He suddenly smiled - the kind of person who finally figured out something he had been struggling with for a long time.
The kind of lightness in which a screw that had been tightened too tightly in the chest suddenly came loose.
He remembered that Su Wantang said that she was also afraid before taking over Philanthropic Foundation--
I am afraid that I will lose my direction after I am no longer his assistant.
She's afraid that things in remote villages are not something she can afford.
But she later discovered that those children who touched the Solar Energy experimental device for the first time in the village primary school had a light in their eyes.
That light has nothing to do with anyone but themselves.
He thought of Shen Jue peeling away his fears layer by layer in the teahouse,
Tell him that he never won by predicting before,
Instead, he relies on being able to calculate faster than everyone else and think deeper than everyone else every time he is forced into a corner.
He remembered that Shen Zhiyi unfolded the hand-drawn K-line Chart with hairy edges and showed it to him--
On the picture, she drew a circle heavily with a red pen at the bottom of 178.
She said that every time she heard his calm tone on the phone, she knew that 178 could still hold on.
Three people, three completely different personalities, said the same thing in three different scenes--
He doesn't need to hold all the answers on his own.
He turned his phone over and saw a message from Shen Zhiyi:
"I know. I know since you were able to withstand such great pressure and bring Henglong back to life.
The oar is in your hand, but the sail is not just in our hands—it's in yours too.
The sail you raised with your own hands will always be there no matter how the wind changes."
He looked at it for a long time, put the phone in his pocket, turned around and walked back.
The lights of Jiangbeizui are shining in layers in the night, and the lights on the top floor of Henglong Headquarters are still on--
The administrative assistant probably hasn't gotten off work yet, so the tea in Zisha Pot should have been refilled.
He remembered Launch Site at Boca Chica a long time ago,
Elon Musk squatted under Raptor engine, holding a piece of Carbon Fiber Composite Material in his hand, and said--
"As long as the cost of failure is low enough, you can fail enough times until you find the right path."
Later, Raptor engine exploded on the test bench, and Elon Musk had someone push the spare prototype up the next day, and it exploded as it was told.
The remains of the stainless steel are still there, and the fracture surface of the weld is the best failure analysis sample.
He's different from Elon Musk - he doesn't have the luxury of blowing up Henglong and starting over again, but he has something sturdier than that.
He has Shen Jue keeping an eye on the bottom line of the system for him, and Chen Xi using data to verify his intuition.
Zhang Qingxue plugged the compliance loopholes for him,
Su Wantang used her own way to guard the rear for him,
There is Shen Zhiyi who silently accompanies him every time he encounters difficulties.
These were not given to him by prophetic memories.
These were obtained by himself with his character, vision, and the credit accumulated in every decision he made in the past few years.
Butterflies can flap their wings, but they cannot flap these people.
