Victory in Life
Chapter 183
'The Eruption of the Dot-Com Bubble!'
'Hum Harbor dropped hard by 10,000 Points!'
'Hundreds of billions of Harbor dollars are gone!'
'The tragedy of the financial tsunami three years ago swept through Harbor again!'
'The economy of Harbor City is in danger, residents are asking how now?'
Countless news articles spread throughout Harbor City that night.
Almost every citizen is affected by the crisis.
Turning on the television, every channel reported an economic crisis today.
What really horrified civilians was that the boss of Carefree Net, an internet company on the stock market went bankrupt and committed suicide with his children by jumping off a roof.
A true tragedy.
Grief and fear were everywhere in Harbor.
Meanwhile, a fun party is held in a rural villa and safe somewhere in Harbor City.
"Haha in these few years I've never been as happy today!"
Bob raised his wine glass and clinked it with a Kennedy glass with a smile on his face as he spoke.
Kennedy smiled and replied, "Yes we earned nearly ten billion today, what's better than making money?"
"Only our funds alone will not give us this result," Bob frowned and made a sound.
Kennedy also thought. "I also realized this afternoon there must have been another entity in the market besides us and their funds were not at all lower than ours, they had taken a down position and if I had to guess, they would have been, I would say that they have prepared at least tens of billions of funds!"
"Who do you think it is?" Bob asked with a frown.
"I don't know, but maybe it's not the local power of Harbor City." Kennedy gave his own deduction.
At that moment, Rogers descended the villa stairs with a relaxed expression and turned to Kennedy. "The head of Quantum Funds is very happy with our results, friends, Wall Street investors are mostly also benefited, is not all this good news to be celebrated?"
Unable to disagree, Kennedy and Bob nodded with a smile, then they informed him of their suspicions,
Rogers frowned, but his expression was not alarming. "Maybe another European capital was sold, or maybe even one of your Somerland neighbors? but I can confirm that the capital is not from Wall Street"
"Observations tomorrow, we'll be watching their next course of action" Rogers replied clearly.
Bob hesitated before speaking, "Master Rogers, our original plan was to drop the Hansel Index by 10,000 points in three days"
"But it's only day one and the Hansel Index is already down 9,000 points, if this continues the Harbor City government and other wealthy families will work together to help."
Kennedy interjected, "I've received their call today, saying that the four main families should make plans and publish them, then work with other wealthy families to save the city."
Rogers smiled jokingly "It's a pity that they didn't know that among the four major wealthy families of Harbor City, you wanted the Harbor Stock to go down."
Kennedy replied plainly, "Stay, you can't let them know it or at least not, if it doesn't end my footing in Harbor."
