Lin Mochen's influence was also the same. There was a year when the investment market experienced particularly large fluctuations, and the stock market was especially bad. At that time, Fengchen was holding 80 billion in a certain type of bond, having already reaped substantial profits earlier on. Then came a critical moment when investment managers were undecided, whether they should continue to hold these bonds or sell them. Under the volatile market conditions, professional investment analysis was no longer effective. It was then that Lin Mochen and Zhou Zhishu had a behind-closed-doors discussion for an entire night, after which he made the decision: sell.
The market was quick to snatch up those 80 billion.
By year's end, Fengchen had made a profit of nearly several hundred million on that bond. The buyer, on the other hand, lost 1 billion.
Later when people asked Lin Mochen how he could make such an accurate judgment at the time, he replied with just two words: intuition.
