Chapter 315: 137, Lin Mo shocks the New York Stock Exchange! The greatest trader!_6
Before inviting Buffett to dinner, the young man had already bought those stocks at a low price and cashed out at the peak, making far more money than what it cost to treat Buffett to a meal.
It was after that event Buffett clearly stipulated that stock-related topics were forbidden during his meal engagements.
Everyone in the stock-trading community knew about this.
However, even those not involved in trading knew that not long ago, to ensure that a certain star got more screen time, middle-aged men had managed to drive up the stock of that toilet company by several times.
Jie Qingshuai, who claimed to be a billionaire, caused the stock of a company he had previously worked for to skyrocket for several days.
The same principle applied to all these incidents.
Today was no different,
After Musk’s tweet was widely reported, GameStop’s stock began to surge upwards without any pause.
In their eyes, this was a harvest by retail investors over Wall Street elites, the perfect opportunity for the poor to vent their dissatisfaction towards the rich!
It was also about letting those wealthy individuals understand who truly owned America.
It felt a bit like fighting against landlords.

Everyone at the New York Stock Exchange went crazy, all crowding around the GameStop counter, frantically buying lottery tickets.
Everyone was snatching up the same stock, a scene not seen since the subprime mortgage crisis.
Li Jinwen was also very excited. If not for the child in her arms, she would have jumped up to celebrate by now.
“Honey, we’re rich!!!”
“10 times, our 20 million US Dollars turned into 200 million US Dollars!!!”
“Oh my God… to make so much money in half a day… Honey, you’re just too amazing! How on earth did you do it!”
“We’re rich! We’re rich! We’re rich! Haha!”
Li Jinwen held Lin Mo tightly, completely oblivious to the fact that her husband was almost out of breath.
“Wife… that’s enough… that’s enough… your husband is about to die!”
Lin Mo patted her several times before finally managing to calm Li Jinwen down a bit.
By then, the stock price had risen to 168 US Dollars per share, very close to the peak price projected by the system.
It’s about time to leave.
Complete the deed and then disappear, keeping one’s achievements and fame deeply hidden!
Lin Mo pressed the service bell. Soon after, the door was pushed open and a trader in a tailcoat walked in.
He bowed respectfully and said, “Sir, is there anything I can help you with?”
What happened? Where’s the usual trader?
And he’s speaking fluent Chinese?
Interesting.
Saves me the trouble of translating.
Lin Mo didn’t bother to ask further and simply nodded, “Help me sell off all the stocks.”
“Certainly.” The trader took the trading card, inserted it into the trading machine, and sold off all the shares originally worth 20 million US Dollars.
His shares were nearly instantaneously absorbed by the market the moment they were thrown out.
The trader politely said, “Sir, your account now has a total of 219 million US Dollars. Shall I deposit it into your private account?”
Lin Mo had no intention to withdraw cash and shook his head, “No need, just leave it in the account at the New York Stock Exchange.”
This identity had already been exposed once; it was time to obtain a completely new identity for the entire family.
Keeping the money in the New York Stock Exchange account and finding a way to launder it before transferring it to a new identity was the safest method.
It might seem like a battle of wits against thin air, but one should never underestimate Chen Shanhe’s reach.
Just in case, right?
What if that old fox catches a hint of a tail?
After handling these matters, Lin Mo frowned and asked, “With so many people outside, how can I leave quietly without making any noise?”
He had no wish to be interviewed, nor did he want to go out and be the center of public attention.
“That’s easy, if you don’t want to be interviewed, please follow me.” The trader walked over to a switch on the wall, revealing a hidden passageway and said, “Respected Mr. Li, you can leave the New York Stock Exchange without alarming anyone through this secure passageway.”
Well,
That’s quite considerate!
“Shall we go, wife?”
“Yes, husband, help me a little!”
“What happened?”
“I… my legs are weak…”
“Haha, look at you, you’ve got no stamina!”
Lin Mo supported Li Jinwen, and with the trader’s gentlemanly guidance, they passed through the narrow corridor and arrived at a building not far from the New York Stock Exchange.
The trader said respectfully, “Sir, since you were seen by many people when you entered the exchange, it might be best to wear a mask when you’re in the vicinity of the New York Stock Exchange in the near future, otherwise, it could be quite bothersome.”
“We’ve prepared a few new masks and hats for you. Do you see anything you like?”
He opened his carry-on case, which contained various masks and baseball caps.
Lin Mo handed him a stack of US Dollars, smiling, “You really are very thorough.”
“No, no, no, sir, I cannot accept this tip. It’s an honor to serve you.” The trader politely declined, waving his hand and adding, “You’re also one of the greatest traders I’ve ever seen, crazier and more creative than the last person from Grand Xia Country I saw.”
