Chapter 275 Capital Game
After the press conference, the doubts from the outside world did not completely subside; instead, they stirred up even more turmoil in the capital market.
The following day, when the stock market opened, Gu's stock price remained volatile. Although some investors' confidence recovered slightly, a large amount of capital was still secretly testing the waters.
At the same time, the overseas capital accelerated its acquisition efforts.
"They want to take control of the Gu family business in the shortest possible time."
Lin Chuyue sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, her slender, fair fingers flipping through the latest market report, her gaze as calm as ice.
Li Zhanchuan stood beside her, his gaze fixed on the real-time stock market curve on the computer screen. The curve fluctuated constantly, like a trap set by a hunter, waiting for its prey to fall in.
"Shen Fang's methods are still so direct." He chuckled, his tone laced with disdain. "Does she think she can solve everything by throwing money at it?"
Lin Chuyue withdrew her gaze and gently closed the report in her hand: "Shen Fang wanted to use capital to target the Gu family, but she forgot one thing—we are not prey to be hunted."
She slowly rose, walked gracefully to the table, and lightly tapped the computer screen with her slender fingertips. The screen switched to a precise data analysis.
"This afternoon, the stock price will reach a critical juncture," she said softly, her tone carrying a hint of certainty. "If they want to continue pressuring the Gu family, their capital must reach a new level; otherwise, their plan will completely fail."
Li Zhanchuan looked at her, a slight smile playing on his lips: "You want to cause their cash flow to dry up?"
Lin Chuyue turned her head and met his gaze, a sharp glint in her eyes: "No, just to catch them off guard."
Capital Showdown
At 2 PM, Gu's stock price fluctuated more wildly, with a large number of buy orders appearing in the market, as if an invisible hand was manipulating it.
Financial media outlets began reporting urgently, and market analysts speculated – had Gu's Group secured new funding, or was even larger capital entering the fray?
At this moment, in Shen Fang's private club, she was sitting on the sofa, holding a glass of red wine, with a cold smile on her face.
"Keep adding to the position," she commanded the person on the other end of the phone, her tone resolute. "At all costs, we must completely break through the Gu family's capital defenses today."
Her assistant hesitated for a moment: "But... if the funding doesn't keep up, our risk will be huge."
Shen Fang glanced coldly at her assistant, her eyes filled with icy intent: "Do you think I would fight a battle unprepared?"
The assistant dared not say anything more and could only nod and carry out the order.
However, just as Shen Fang was confidently waiting for Gu's stock price to completely collapse, the flow of funds in the market suddenly underwent a strange change.
Within just five minutes, a large number of hidden buy orders surfaced instantly, resulting in a frenzy of buying. The stock price not only did not fall, but rebounded rapidly, even rising to the morning's high point at one point!
"What happened?!" Shen Fang's expression changed drastically. She stood up abruptly, and the wine glass in her hand fell to the ground with a "clatter," splattering the scarlet liquid all over the floor, resembling a scene of a failed massacre.
On the other end of the phone, the trader's voice was urgent and panicked: "Someone is targeting us! They've set up a reverse takeover trap, and all the sell orders in the market have been absorbed. Our cash flow... is about to collapse!"
Shen Fang's face instantly turned ashen.
She finally realized—she had been tricked!
Hunter and Prey
At this moment, in the president's office at the headquarters of the Gu Group, Gu Yanchuan sat at his large desk, his expression calm and his gaze fixed on the real-time stock price curve on the screen.
Sitting opposite him, Lin Chuyue had a slight smile on her lips, but her eyes revealed a sharp chill.
“Their funds won’t last much longer,” she said softly, tapping her fingers lightly on the table. “They’ll run into a funding shortfall in at most an hour.”
Gu Yanchuan glanced at her, a slight smile playing on his lips, his voice low and cold: "Then let them hold on until they reach their limit."
Lin Chuyue chuckled: "You're really cold-hearted."
“To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself,” Gu Yanchuan said calmly.
Li Zhanchuan stood to the side, leaning lazily against the French windows, his tone somewhat nonchalant: "Shen Fang suffered a great loss this time. She thought she was the hunter, but she didn't even know who her prey was."
He paused, tilted his head slightly, and looked at Lin Chuyue: "So, how do you plan to close the net next?"
Lin Chuyue raised her eyebrows slightly, a deep meaning flashing in her eyes: "Let them bury themselves with their own hands."
Capital collapse
The market officially closed at 6 p.m.
The day's top financial headline was: "Overseas acquisition fails, Gu's stock price reverses dramatically!"
No one expected that the Gu family, which was thought to be in dire straits, would pull off a stunning comeback at the last moment, not only retaining its controlling stake but also causing the overseas capital to suffer heavy losses.
Financial experts exclaimed, "This is a textbook example of a capital war!"
Shen Fang, on the other hand, became a laughing stock in the market.
Her cash flow dried up, and her shares shrank dramatically. Not only did she fail to control the Gu family business, but she also suffered huge losses.
At that moment, she finally realized that she had completely lost.
She lost to Lin Chuyue, she lost to Gu Yanchuan, she lost to the opponent she had always looked down upon.
Her hands trembled as she smashed the phone, her eyes filled with malice and resentment: "Lin Chuyue...you just wait!"
The afterglow of victory
At night, the top executives of the Gu Group gathered, and a relaxed atmosphere filled the president's office.
Someone joked, "Miss Lin is a great hero this time. Without her planning, we would have suffered heavy losses."
Lin Chuyue chuckled softly without speaking, but Gu Yanchuan slowly said, "She is not only an ally of the Gu family, but also my most trusted partner."
Everyone was stunned, then nodded.
Li Zhanchuan stood in the corner, his gaze fixed on Lin Chuyue, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.
"You're getting more and more interesting," he murmured softly, a subtle, profound meaning in his eyes.
Although this capital war has temporarily come to an end, they all know that this is only the beginning.
An even bigger storm is brewing...
