After a short while, the Fairy Sister successfully completed the torch relay mission and stopped.

The runner who lit the torch from her hand and continued the relay was a famous actress in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, Kelly Chen.

After lighting the torch, Kelly Chen held the torch high and continued running north along Nathan Road.

Seeing this, Yao Yuan retracted his gaze and prepared to listen to the work report from his senior executives.

Before the report began, he asked about the situation of several group executives who participated in the torch relay.

Jiuye Investment Group sent a total of six people to participate in the Hong Kong Island Olympic Torch Relay, excluding Fairy Sister.

In addition to Yao Yuan, there were Zhou Chaoyang and Sun Lei, as well as the president of ATV and the president of Ming Pao, and an employee representative from the headquarters.

Everyone will participate in the torch relay at different times and locations, which will be revealed one after another in the next few hours.

The last person to appear was Yao Yuan, who will participate in the final leg of the torch relay.

Upon learning that Zhou Chaoyang and the others were in place and ready, Yao Yuan gave them a few words of encouragement and then hung up the phone.

Next, he called the public relations director in charge of publicity and asked about the progress of the publicity activities.

The director of public relations replied to him that the promotional activities were going on as normal.

The publicity departments of ATV Group and Ming Pao Group are mainly responsible for this work.

This is what they do, so they are naturally experienced and their publicity effect is very good.

After finishing the call with the public relations director, everyone got down to business.

The next moment, Yao Yuan signaled Mr. Li from the foreign exchange investment company to start reporting.

Mr. Li nodded and said excitedly:

"Last night, the Federal Reserve's sudden interest rate cut and the US$300 billion housing aid plan passed by the U.S. House of Representatives caused severe turbulence in the foreign exchange market."

"The pace of the dollar's depreciation has intensified. Affected by the dollar's plunge, the exchange rates of major world currencies such as the euro, yen, and pound have also fluctuated dramatically."

"Because we guessed the direction correctly and made arrangements in advance, from last night to this morning, our company's investment profits in the international foreign exchange market have exceeded 400 billion US dollars..."

Upon hearing this astonishing profit figure, everyone at the scene was stunned and their eyes lit up with excitement.

However, it was not only foreign exchange investment companies that reaped huge profits in the international financial market last night.

Securities investment companies, fund management companies, Mr. Gu's investment team, as well as several other investment companies and many investment teams all made a lot of money last night.

These investment companies and investment teams are also engaged in international foreign exchange investment business, but their scale is not as large as that of foreign exchange investment companies.

In addition to reaping astonishing investment profits in the international foreign exchange market, various investment companies and teams have launched full-scale attacks in the stock market, futures market and other fields, sweeping the entire international financial market and unscrupulously reaping wealth.

If the profits earned by all investment companies and teams are added together, it will be a very staggering number, far more exaggerated than the 500 billion or 600 billion US dollars predicted by Yao Yuan!

The secret operations team hiding in the dark had even more astonishing gains.

Not only that, after Yao Yuan’s reminder, other domestic financial institutions also made early arrangements and also reaped rich rewards.

These include the foreign exchange investment teams of state-owned financial institutions such as the Big Four Banks, China Investment Corporation, and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange.

Yao Yuan was naturally very satisfied with this result and nodded frequently.

While we were busy, it was already past four in the afternoon.

The Olympic Torch Relay is still going on and has crossed the sea to Hong Kong Island.

When the time came to 4:30 in the afternoon, the Beijing Olympic torch had been passed to Golden Bauhinia Square.

The Olympic Torch Relay in Hong Kong Island is coming to an end, with only the last three baton relays left.

At this moment, Yao Yuan, wearing the red and white Olympic torch relay sportswear, holding his torch, came to the center of the road under the escort of several security personnel, and looked at the athlete, Wang Chen, who was running towards him with the torch held high.

Yao Yuan's sudden appearance immediately caused a commotion at the scene and in front of countless live broadcast terminals.

"Look! It's Yao Sheng. He's actually participating in the Olympic Torch Relay. He didn't seem to be on the list of relay runners announced earlier. What a surprise!"

"Do I need to ask? This must be kept strictly confidential for security reasons. With Yao Sheng's wealth, status and huge influence, it would be strange for him not to participate in the Olympic Torch Relay!"

"Yao Sheng is so handsome, even more stylish than what I saw on TV, tall and handsome, just like a male model, I love him so much!"

Everyone at the scene was looking at Yao Yuan holding the torch, their eyes shining with excitement, and they started talking about it.

Not only that, everyone held up their mobile phones or cameras and started taking pictures of Yao Yuan.

In particular, many media reporters kept their fingers on the camera shutter and never released them.

Zeng Li and Yang Mi, who were in the crowd, stared at Yao Yuan closely, their eyes full of love and obsession.

As they were talking, the fourth-to-last torch relay runner had already approached.

While waving to the people around him, he also looked at Yao Yuan in surprise.

Before this, he didn't know that the torchbearer taking over from him was Yao Yuan.

All we know is that the last two torchbearers were Hong Kong Island Olympic Committee Chairman Fok Ching-ting and cyclist Wong Kam-po.

As for who the third-to-last torch relay runner will be, it has been kept strictly confidential.

Now the mystery has finally been solved. The third-to-last torchbearer is Yao Yuan.

This made Wang Chen feel a little surprised and very excited.

Before he could react, Yao Yuan had already taken the initiative to greet him.

"Good afternoon, Wang Chen, I'm Yao Yuan, nice to meet you"

As he said that, he walked up to Wang Chen and gave him a gentle hug.

Wang Chen reacted quickly and greeted them enthusiastically.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Yao, I am also very happy to meet you and it is a great honor to hand over the Olympic torch to you."

Yao Yuan nodded gently and said with a smile:

"Let's start the handover, and we'll talk later during the ceremony."

"Okay, Yao Sheng"

Wang Chen nodded quickly in response.

Then the two of them began to hand over the Olympic torch.

Everything went very smoothly.

In a blink of an eye, Yao Yuan had lit the Olympic torch in his hand.

Then he held the torch high and paraded around, waving to the crowd and media reporters around him.

While doing these actions, he felt extremely excited and his eyes were filled with pride and joy.

In his previous life, he was just an enthusiastic spectator during the Olympic torch relay in Beijing and the subsequent Olympic Games.

I can only watch TV and occasionally go to some unpopular Olympic venues to cheer and find a sense of participation.

It is different now. He has personally participated in activities related to the Beijing Olympics and is an indispensable and important figure.

How can such a change of identity not make people extremely excited?

Soon, Yao Yuan had finished displaying the Olympic torch.

He then stepped out, held the torch high and started running, waving to the audience and media reporters around him.

Three hundred meters ahead, the chairman of the Hong Kong Island Olympic Committee, Fok Ching-ting, had walked to the center of the track holding the torch and was looking at Yao Yuan.

At this time, the atmosphere in Golden Bauhinia Square became even more heated, with all kinds of shouts being heard everywhere.

"Mr. Yao, you are so handsome, I am your fan, we support you"

"I love you, Yao Sheng, I want to give birth to a son for you"

Watching Yao Yuan jogging with the torch held high in the live broadcast, and listening to the various cheers from the audience, the laughter of his grandparents and parents far away in Beijing never stopped.

"These kids are so bold nowadays. There are so many girls shouting that they want to marry Xiaoyuan and give birth to a baby for Xiaoyuan. They have no shame at all!"

Grandma smiled and shook her head.

Hearing this, Grandpa and Dad laughed even louder.

My mother smiled and nodded, then continued:

"That's right. Kids nowadays are very bold. There's a list of men that young girls want to marry the most on the Internet, and Xiao Yuan is always at the top of the list!"

"what!"

Grandpa and the others were all stunned for a moment, and then they all burst into laughter.

At the same time, in another courtyard house within the Second Ring Road.

Looking at Yao Yuan holding the torch in the live broadcast, an old lady in her 70s or 80s said admiringly:

"This boy is Yao Yuan. He looks really good. He is tall and straight, handsome, full of masculinity, and he has achieved success in his career at a young age."

"Xiaoxue has been repeating this boy's name in my ears every day recently. My ears are almost calloused. It can be seen that Xiaoxue likes this boy very much."

"In that case, when this kid returns to the capital, invite him to your house for a meal, and let him meet Xiaoxue. I think they are a good match."

Before he finished speaking, the old man in his early eighties next to him shook his head helplessly.

"Don't try to trick this guy. It's impossible! He's like a loach, so slippery that he won't get lost."

"No one can catch him, let alone bind him with a political marriage. This guy is really good at conspiracy!"

The old lady paused for a moment, then asked curiously:

"Open conspiracy? What's going on? Tell me about it."
