"Let's go," Huo Yongnian said, "Although we understand his intentions, we still have to show the proper attitude and perform the drama as it should be."

He looked upstairs, then led the way out. Pierce, who had taken the white powder, collapsed on the sofa, looking a little out of control. Yi Er stood aside, just licking his lips at Huo Yongnian.

Seeing this scene, the four of them stopped. After a while, Pierce shook his head and looked at Huo Yongnian and the others with a crazy smile on his face, and said, "Looking at your expressions, I know that things are not good."

Huo Yongnian briefly explained the situation of the meeting and the dynamics of the market, and got straight to the point: "We will participate in the joint rescue and invest a part of the funds. This is a last resort."

"But you can rest assured that we know how to proceed."

“What we want to know now is, when do you and the United Fund intend to take action?”

Pierce's behavior seemed a little crazy, probably because of the influence of drugs. He stood up, staggered to Huo Yongnian, put his hands on his shoulders, and asked almost close to his face: "Didn't I say before, don't ask me questions?"

"Just follow my orders and do whatever you want."

As he spoke, he gently patted Huo Yongnian's cheek, "Do you understand...?"

On the other side, Li Zihong and Yang Cheng returned to the Li family. Since most of the funds were with Zhou Qi, in order to show respect, they chose to come in person to talk to Zhou Qi instead of communicating over the phone.

"Xiao Zhou, were you the one who supported the stock market this morning?" Li Zihong asked immediately after seeing Zhou Qi. Yang Cheng also stared at Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi did not hide anything from these two old friends. He nodded and said, "Yes, I am buying time, and the joint rescue of the market should have reached a preliminary agreement."

This sentence has explained everything. Although Li Zihong had guessed it long ago, he was still very relieved when he heard Zhou Qi admit it himself. What moved him even more was that part of the reason Zhou Qi supported the market was to support Xiangfu's joint rescue action, which brought hope to everyone.

Zhou Qi, the newcomer from the mainland, stepped forward at the critical moment and provided support for the city of Hong Kong.

Before Li Zihong could even open his mouth, his daughter Li Jiaxin couldn't wait to tell her father the good news: "Dad, did you know? Zhou Qi not only stabilized the Xiang stock, but he also helped us make a small profit this morning, four hundred million!"

Although 400 million seems insignificant compared to the billions before, it is a remarkable achievement in such a difficult battle to protect the market. Li Zihong originally thought that this action would bring losses, but he did not expect to get unexpected wealth.

"Xiao Zhou, you are really good!" Yang Cheng praised and gave a thumbs up, "From now on, I will only respect you in the stock market."

In response to the praise, Zhou Qi modestly said: "I just did what I thought was right. Now it seems that I have lived up to the trust." He then asked about the specific progress of the joint rescue of the market.

Li Zihong patted Zhou Qi's arm gently, his eyes full of praise: "The meeting did not go smoothly at first, but your actions inspired everyone and made us reach a consensus. Even the most selfish people feel that something should be done. Now everyone is raising funds and preparing to hold a press conference to publicize our decision, which will both appease the people and remind everyone not to blindly follow the trend."

"Regarding the position of commander-in-chief, I would like to invite you to join, and even consider having you take charge of the command. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Li Jiaxin's eyes sparkled with admiration and expectation. She knew that her father had always been strict, and the fact that he valued someone so much was enough to prove Zhou Qi's strength.

If Zhou Qi accepts this role, he will become famous regardless of success or failure. Even if he does not serve as the commander-in-chief, working with an industry leader like Li Zhaoji will also make him stand out in the financial world of Hong Kong City.

For Li Jiaxin, Zhou Qi is not only her hero, but also her only lover. She sincerely hopes to see him achieve brilliant success in Xianggu.

Li Zihong hopes that through this incident, the Li family's manipulation will be made public. They have always acted uprightly, and now that they have stepped forward to save the market, they must also be open and aboveboard. Zhou Qi's heroic behavior this morning should not be buried, and the people of Hong Kong should know that this young man from the mainland is their hero.

The addition of Li Zhaoji, coupled with Zhou Qi's almost incredible talent, provided a double guarantee that made the subsequent task of protecting the market seem a sure thing.

"Xiao Zhou, I think Lao Li's suggestion is very good, I fully support you." Yang Cheng said. Over the past two days, he has no doubt about Zhou Qi's ability.

Zhou Qi understood Li Zihong's intention. Under the expectant gazes of the three people, he thought for a moment and then gently refused: "Mr. Li Zhaoji will personally handle the operation. With his ability and reputation, this is the natural choice."

"And I am an outsider after all..." Zhou Qi continued, "I feel very honored to be appreciated by Mr. Li and Mr. Yang. But to others, I am just a strange young man. If I suddenly intervene, it may cause dissatisfaction and destroy the cooperative relationship that has been hard to establish, which is not good for anyone."

“Also, although we have a clear conscience, we also have to consider the power of public opinion… This is not good for the Li family or Mr. Yang.” His words were clear and practical.

Yang Cheng waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care about the gossip: "I have been in this circle for so long. If I still cared about those gossips, I would have been drowned in saliva. My strength is there, they can't refuse to accept it. If anyone has an opinion, I will be the first to disagree."

Zhou Qi waved his hand and put forward his own idea: "Instead of letting me stand in the front, it would be more appropriate for me to act behind the scenes. I will seize the opportunity to take action at the right time, which can also effectively help Hong Kong City to protect the market, and the effect may be better."

Hearing this, Li Zihong admired Zhou Qi even more. In Li Zihong's opinion, people of Zhou Qi's age usually crave for the limelight. If it were someone else, they would definitely want it and even create opportunities to make themselves famous. However, Zhou Qi was completely different. Despite his talent and extraordinary strength, he chose to keep a low profile.

If he had not had in-depth contact with Zhou Qi, Li Zihong would have found it hard to imagine that Zhou Qi was such an outstanding talent. No wonder his daughter was also attracted by his charm. If he were a few decades younger and a woman, he would probably find it difficult to resist such a man. Thinking of this, Li Zihong couldn't help but smile slightly, then put away his thoughts, looked at Zhou Qi seriously, nodded and said: "Since you insist, I won't force it anymore."
