Business Building In America : From The Underworld To Hollywood
This story unfolds during the later stages of World War II, where a man, scarred by the horrors of war, finally grasps the profound and harsh realities of the world. In this world, those at the top laugh and celebrate, while those at the bottom sacrifice their lives in futile conflicts driven by pride and meaningless ambition. A modern soul transmigrates and fuses with the original soul of a body, creating a unique and extraordinary existence. To some, he is a villain; to others, a madman. In a world steeped in cruelty, this man, determined to secure a place among the decision-makers, struggles to break free from the ranks of those powerless to control their fate. To achieve his goal, he resolves to shatter the chains of law, then the chains of morality, and finally the chains of mediocrity.
Chapter 72 Fear and Greed
In the 1940s, information dissemination was far less convenient than in the 21st century, and newspapers were still the primary media outlet.
At the moment, David Wash, who was in New Mexico, had not yet received news of the stock price collapse.
Some shareholders attempted to contact David Wash to discuss how to recover losses, but the calls reached Albuquerque, where an assistant informed the shareholders that David Wash had gone into the mountains with a mining team for exploration.
The next day, Wash Mining's stock continued to decline, though not as dramatically as the day before, dropping only a few cents to $0.138 per share.
The following day, it dropped further to $0.121 per share.
Shareholders were frantic, and finally managed to contact David Wash on the third evening. David was also shocked to hear about the stock price plunge.
