Less than ten minutes after the U.S. stock market opened, the first circuit breaker arrived as expected.

"The U.S. stock market has been halted, Mr. Yao. Trading in the U.S. stock market has been suspended, but trading in European stock markets is still continuing."

"Stimulated by the U.S. stock market circuit breaker, the decline of European stock markets has intensified again, and it is estimated that the circuit breaker will also occur soon."

An investment advisory manager loudly reported the latest situation.

In fact, Yao Yuan had already seen the real situation on the computer and responded quickly.

"Since the U.S. stock market has been halted, it means that no operations can be performed in the U.S. stock market for the time being."

"Fortunately, the European stock market has not yet been halted, so we should speed up the liquidation of positions in the European market."

"In other financial markets in the United States, such as the futures market, we must also speed up the closing of positions!"

"If the U.S. stock market continues to fall like crazy, the rest of the financial markets will be dragged down and fall into the abyss together!"

As soon as the words fell, many investment consultants immediately responded in unison:

"Understood, Yao Sheng"

Immediately afterwards, they began to contact their respective investment teams to execute trading instructions.

After receiving the trading instructions, many investment teams far away at the headquarters in Hong Kong Island immediately accelerated the pace of closing their positions.

Start buying various stocks continuously to hedge the short positions held.

The trends in European and American financial markets were basically as Yao Yuan expected.

Just five or six minutes later, stock markets in European countries began to circuit breakers one after another, and wails were heard in the market.

On the other side of the ocean, the U.S. Treasury Building.

Looking at the plummeting financial airports in Europe and the United States, Paulson, Bernanke and others all had tears in their eyes.

"Fuck! Why did this happen? The Treasury Department just injected hundreds of billions of dollars directly into Wall Street. Did it all go down the drain?"

"Last Friday's biggest one-day gain in U.S. stocks in 76 years was a joke? Or a trap? Why is this happening?"

"What is Goldman Sachs doing? What is Morgan Stanley doing? What is Citibank doing? After they get a large amount of capital injection, don't they say they will invest ten times the money?"

Paulson roared in frustration.

The faces of several other senior financial executives in the conference room were as dark as the bottom of a pot.

A moment later, New York Fed President Geithner said helplessly:

"You don't have to be too angry, Henry. Everyone knows that the problem of this financial crisis has not been solved. Only a small part of the huge financial risks has been released!"

"The market frenzy caused by the Ministry of Finance's massive capital injection was only a flash in the pan, and the one-day market rally was understandable. We cannot expect a single capital injection to completely solve the problem."

"Yes, I think so too. Today's plunge is not unexpected."

"It now seems that our previous direct capital injection was a bit inappropriate, which resulted in a sharp rise and fall in the financial market, and the effect was counterproductive!"

Several other senior financial executives echoed this.

The next moment, Cox, who was attending the meeting via video call, said helplessly:

"According to our research and analysis, top investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are frantically dumping stocks and making huge profits by shorting the financial market!"

"Not only that, the ten top financial institutions that received direct funding from the Ministry of Finance are all frantically shorting the financial market. What a bunch of bastards!"

After hearing his introduction, the conference room suddenly became quiet.

Including Paulson, several senior executives who have close ties with these top financial institutions couldn't help but blush and feel somewhat embarrassed.

In fact, everyone knows that they all have their own interests in these top financial institutions, but they cannot say it openly.

The next moment, Paulson gritted his teeth and changed the subject.

"What's the situation of Jiuye Investment Group? If they also frantically short the international financial market and take the opportunity to sweep up wealth, I will not let them off."

"They were one of the biggest winners in last Friday's overall surge. This must not happen again today. No one can have the best of both worlds!"

After the words were spoken, Cox in the video fell silent.

After a few seconds of silence, he said helplessly:

"Gentlemen, if we abide by the rules of the financial market that we set, we cannot use this excuse to deal with Jiuye Investment and that devilish bastard."

"You may not believe this, but Jiuye Investment is now one of the largest long positions in the international financial market. It is constantly buying stocks to close its short positions, and the trading volume is quite astonishing."

"The massive short positions held by Jiuye Investment were all predicted in advance and established in the past few days. Today, they did not make any moves to smash the market, but just kept hedging and closing positions."

"The main force behind the crash in the international financial market today is Wall Street. If it weren't for Jiuye Investment Group's continuous buying and closing of positions, the decline in the financial market would be even more terrible."

"From this perspective, we have no reason to deal with Jiuye Investment Group. We can only admire that little bastard's god-like accurate prediction. I have never seen such a terrifying person in my life!"

As Cox finished his words, everyone attending the meeting was stunned.

At the same time, each of them looked unwilling.

Are we just going to watch that little bastard plunder the international financial market? How can such a good thing be so cheap?

Or should we break the existing rules of the game and teach that little bastard a lesson?

If that happened, that little bastard might just retaliate violently.

With that little bastard's huge influence in the international financial market, just spreading some analysis and judgment on the financial market would cause quite a stir!

Who dares to ignore such influence?

Thinking of this, Paulson couldn't help but feel a headache, and so did the others.

At this moment, they felt like a dog biting a hedgehog, not knowing where to start!

In the blink of an eye, it was around eleven o'clock in the evening.

Yao Yuan was still sitting in his office chair, keeping a close eye on the situation in the international financial market.

At this point, the U.S. stock market had fallen by more than -11%, triggering the second trading order, and many investment teams were closing their positions quickly.

The situation in European financial markets was even worse as they approached closing time, with even deeper declines.

At this moment, Li Shan came out from the lounge next to her, went straight to sit next to Yao Yuan, and then began to report the situation in a low voice.

"I just called Mr. Zhou and told him your trading instructions, asking the relevant investment team to close all short positions in the European financial market within half an hour."

"After receiving the transaction order, Mr. Zhou immediately agreed to personally notify Mr. Yang and Mr. Zhao and pass the transaction order to the relevant investment team for immediate execution!"

"I also told Mr. Zhou that this transaction instruction needs to be kept confidential for the time being. You cannot tell anyone else about the relevant content and the reason why you made this decision. Mr. Zhou agreed!"

Yao Yuan turned his head and looked at Li Shan, smiling and whispering:

"Well done, sit down and take a break. Let's watch how the European and American financial markets jump into the abyss!"

"Starting tomorrow afternoon, you won't have to be so busy. I'll give you guys a day off in turn, so you can go stroll around the Magic City!"

Hearing this, Li Shan's face immediately showed joy.

"That's great. We can finally have a break. I want to take this opportunity to take my family to visit some nearby ancient towns."

Having said that, she sat down on the chair.

At the same time, in the medium-sized conference room on the same floor.

Many investment consultants who were responsible for connecting the secret action team and several state-owned financial institutions were making phone calls to convey Yao Yuan's trading instructions.

Jiuye Yazhu, Yao Yuan’s penthouse.

Da Meiyuan and Shi Shi were sitting on the sofa, each with a laptop in front of them. They were staring at their overseas investment accounts in amazement, each of them was ecstatic!

Yang Mi and Shan Shan, who have more wealth, performed slightly better, that’s all!
