Chapter 124 Dining

"After three rounds of drinks, Lian Yingying and Yu Tingting were chatting, while Hu Zhaocheng said to Chen Wei, 'Xiao Chen, I'll take care of the operating permit issue, but I have to say in advance, we earn money, but what money should be earned and what money shouldn't, you must have a clear idea! Money that shouldn't be earned, don't earn it, otherwise, as your elder brother, I won't let you off the hook!'"

Before Chen Wei could respond, Yu Tingting immediately scolded Hu Zhaocheng, "You're starting to talk nonsense again! Is Xiao Chen the kind of person who would do such things? Xiao Chen, don't listen to your brother's nonsense. When he drinks a little, he starts talking rubbish."

Without waiting for Chen Wei to speak, Yu Tingting gave Hu Zhaocheng a pat on the shoulder and reproached him.

"Oh, you know nothing, my dear! I'm just looking out for Xiao Chen!" Hu Zhaocheng retorted.

Yu Tingting immediately glared at him.

Hu Zhaocheng quickly recoiled.

Chen Wei hurriedly interjected, "Sister-in-law, you misunderstood Brother Hu. He is indeed looking out for me. I am very aware that in our line of work, there are indeed many temptations. If one cannot resist the temptation of money, it is easy to fall into the black hole of money, from which there is no return. As for the consequences, I don't need to explain. Brother Hu, you can rest assured. I dare not claim to be a saint, but I am very clear about what I am doing. I won't let money dictate my actions."

In the financial sector, there are too many temptations, too many pitfalls, and too many minefields. Once one's resolve weakens and they become ensnared by money, it's irreversible.

Chen Wei constantly reminded himself that he had the system. As long as he honestly earned the money he should, it was enough. There was no need to take risks for a bit of shady income.

As a regulatory officer in this line of work, Hu Zhaocheng had seen too many practitioners lose their way and fall into the black hole of money. That's why he reminded Chen Wei.

Upon hearing Chen Wei's words, Hu Zhaocheng nodded and said to his wife, "See, Xiao Chen understands, unlike you!"

"What's wrong with me?" Yu Tingting glared at him again.

Hu Zhaocheng recoiled again.

Hu Zhaocheng's drinking capacity was on par with Chen Wei's.

The two of them drank less than five bottles of beer in total, and they were both helped out in the end...

The next day, Chen Wei woke up after eight o'clock. When he arrived at the company, Zhou Yi, Zheng Junpeng, Pan Zhiyao, Yu Jia, and Lu Tinghai had already arrived.

Yesterday, Pan Zhiyao and the others had spent the whole day at home, so they didn't come.

Lian Yingying didn't come today either. She went shopping with her mother.

Ma Hongrui was working overtime at the company, so it was just the few of them guys.

At nine o'clock, the interviewees started to arrive one after another.

There were quite a few applicants under the banner of Jinshengda.

Of course, inevitably, some applicants were disappointed when they found out that Tianrun had nothing to do with Jinshengda, but most of them didn't care.

Especially since Tianrun Investment occupied an entire floor of office space, the working environment was good, and the salary was decent.

After a day of interviews, they had selected a few candidates.

In the evening, everyone had dinner together and then discussed the candidates.

In the end, they unanimously decided to hire Wang Qian.

Wang Qian had two years of experience as a cashier and a good understanding of basic financial knowledge. She was fully capable of handling the company's initial work. It was also evident from the interview that Wang Qian had a cheerful personality.

Of course, these were not the most important factors. The most important thing was that Wang Qian was very beautiful...

Pan Zhiyao and the other single guys couldn't wait to work with Wang Qian...

But it couldn't be tomorrow. Chen Wei instructed Zheng Junpeng to inform Wang Qian to come on Friday.

This Thursday and Friday were holidays for the U.S. stock market, so it was a good opportunity for Wang Qian to familiarize herself with the company.

After dinner, Pan Zhiyao and the others clamored to go singing, but Chen Wei wasn't interested. Besides, he had drunk two glasses of wine during dinner and wasn't feeling well, so he didn't go and went home alone instead.

After returning home, since it was still early, he called Zhao Yang.

He didn't beat around the bush and directly told Zhao Yang about the scheme he had set up to trap Xu Lin, speaking in a tone of satisfaction as if he had avenged a great enmity.

Zhao Yang burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Then the two chatted for a while about other matters before hanging up.

Chen Wei didn't mention to Zhao Yang about wanting Xu Lin to go to his company.

As long as Zhao Yang knew that Xu Lin had indeed fallen out with Luo Chen, that was enough.

Chen Wei believed that Zhao Yang would definitely tell Wang Wentao about this matter.

And Wang Wentao would certainly have similar thoughts to Chen Wei's.

By then, when Xu Lin talked to Huang Zhaokun again, this matter would basically be settled.

But if Chen Wei talked more to Zhao Yang and let Wang Wentao know that he wanted Xu Lin to come to his company, it would only make Wang Wentao suspicious.

Later, Chen Wei called Yue Jiawen, chatted briefly, and mentioned that Hu Zhaocheng's matter had been settled.

After hanging up, he called Lian Yingying and chatted for more than an hour...

After making these calls, it was almost eleven o'clock.

The next day, Chen Wei got up and went downstairs to have breakfast as usual. Then he checked the news and information for a while.

There wasn't any major news.

At nine o'clock, the futures market opened, and he made about seventy to eighty thousand by trading copper.

At nine-thirty, the stock market opened.

Chen Wei switched to the stock index and took a look. As soon as the market opened, the stock index started to fluctuate and fall.

Chen Wei took the opportunity to short twenty contracts at 4840 when the index rebounded to a high level.

The price fell all the way to 4800, and when he saw a bottoming signal, Chen Wei closed the twenty short contracts at 4800, earning two hundred and forty thousand.

After this round, the stock index began to oscillate at the bottom, indicating that it would continue to oscillate for a while. Chen Wei then switched to check copper prices again.

After half an hour, he made about fifty to sixty thousand.

At ten-thirty, he checked the stock index again.

At this time, the index had been oscillating between 4810 and 4820 for half an hour. The moving average showed a golden cross, and the indicators also showed a bottom deviation.

Chen Wei tentatively entered the market with ten contracts at the price of 4810.

When the market fluctuated back to 4820, the stock price instantly broke through 4820 and surged to 4830 in one go!

It even continued to rise!

Chen Wei hesitated for a moment and didn't add to his position directly.

He quickly activated his skills and went back to one minute ago.

At that time, the price was still at 4815.

Chen Wei promptly entered the market with full positions.

He added fourteen more contracts, making a total of twenty-four contracts.

After entering the market, the stock price rose rapidly, just like before.

It surged to 4850 with two consecutive bullish candles.

Then it pulled back slightly and continued to rise.

It kept rising until it reached 4884!

A bearish engulfing candle appeared.

It was a signal of a top.

Chen Wei closed his long position of twenty-four contracts at 4880 and went short with twenty contracts.

The stock price gradually fell with small bearish candles, dropping to 4840 before starting to rebound.

Chen Wei closed his short position at 4845.

He made a total profit of six hundred and ninety-three thousand!

Combined with the previous profit, he had already made one million and sixty thousand today!

It was the most he had earned in a day since he started trading futures.

However, Chen Wei wasn't particularly excited.

Compared to the night he made over a million US dollars, one million Chinese yuan wasn't that much.

After the big market movement in the morning, there wasn't much action in the afternoon, just oscillations.

Chen Wei spent the afternoon trading copper futures and made another one hundred and fifty-six thousand.

In the evening, he came to the company.

When he saw Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi looked at him strangely and said, "Boss, Luo Chen really let Qiqi handle the risk control for Group Three!"

Chen Wei was also surprised when he heard this.
