Chapter 33: We do not have time to see your boss!

"This account traded three or four hundred times in just one afternoon yesterday?"

"And there were only three or four losing trades?"

"How is this even possible?"

Xiang Zhiqiu, the Stock God of Hong Kong, was stunned after reviewing the transaction records of Nina Li's securities account. He never imagined that anyone could execute so many trades in such a short period of time. Furthermore, the win rate for these numerous transactions was as high as 99%, with losses accounting for only about 1%. Even those losing trades were so negligible that they were barely worth mentioning.

It was simply incredible! He had never seen anyone so adept at stock trading. Even with his own reputation as the Stock God of Hong Kong, he could not achieve such results. In fact, one could argue that no trading expert in the world—not even the legendary Warren Buffett—could pull this off.

Who exactly was this person? And how were they doing it?

Xiang Zhiqiu quickly checked the registration information for the account. Moments later, the name of the account holder appeared before him.

"Nina Li?"

"If I recall correctly, the winner of last year’s Miss Asia pageant was also named Nina Li."

"Could they be the same person?"

Xiang Zhiqiu frowned slightly, murmuring to himself in thought.

"Mr. Xiang!"

"We’ve noticed that this account trades with extreme frequency, and the proportion of profitable trades is exceptionally high. That is why I instructed our traders to follow the trades in this account, which is what has caused our company's recent performance to gradually improve," explained Luo Zhiqiang, the manager of the business department.

"Hmm. Your ability to adjust strategy in a timely manner is excellent. However, following this account still leaves you with a time lag. Our profit rate is clearly not as high as theirs," Xiang Zhiqiu remarked, hitting the nail on the head and exposing the inherent flaw in copy-trading.

"There is nothing we can do about that. Stock prices fluctuate every second, and there will inevitably be a delay when we follow their trades," Luo Zhiqiang replied helplessly.

"Since this account is so formidable, why don't we recruit her?" Xiang Zhiqiu said with a smile.

"That's right! If we bring her on board, we won't have to worry about time delays anymore!" Luo Zhiqiang exclaimed.

"Find a way to track down Nina Li immediately," Xiang Zhiqiu commanded.

"Understood." Luo Zhiqiang nodded and left the office to begin his search.

"Who on earth is this Nina Li? Why is her trading so brilliant? How does she do it?" Xiang Zhiqiu stared at the account records, lost in deep contemplation.

It must be said that Luo Zhiqiang was quite capable. He soon discovered that Nina Li was currently at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange trading hall. He promptly dispatched two men to find her and then hurried back to report to Xiang Zhiqiu.

"Mr. Xiang! I have located her!" Luo Zhiqiang said excitedly.

"Where is she?" Xiang Zhiqiu asked urgently.

"She should be at the Exchange's trading hall right now. I’ve already sent two men to find her," Luo Zhiqiang replied.

"Excellent. Once you find her, bring her here immediately," Xiang Zhiqiu said, nodding in satisfaction.

Because the headquarters of Xiang Sheng Securities was located near the Stock Exchange, the two men—He Songping and Zhang Guoliang—arrived at the trading hall very quickly. They had already confirmed that the Nina Li who held an account with their firm was indeed the Miss Asia pageant winner from the previous year, and they carried a magazine featuring her photograph to help them identify her.

"Look, that woman there—that looks like her!" He Songping said, pointing toward Nina Li.

Zhang Guoliang looked in the direction his colleague indicated and quickly spotted the stunningly beautiful woman. He recognized her instantly. He also noticed a young, handsome man standing beside her—none other than Chen Hao.

"You're right, that's her! Let's go!" The two men walked quickly toward Nina Li and Chen Hao.

They reached the pair in moments.

"Are you Miss Nina Li?" He Songping asked.

"Yes, I am. And you are...?" Nina Li looked at them. She wasn't overly surprised to be recognized; as the winner of the Miss Asia pageant, she was a well-known public figure in Hong Kong, though she had tried to dress down to keep a low profile.

"We are from Xiang Sheng Securities," He Songping replied.

"Xiang Sheng Securities?" Nina Li was taken aback. She hadn't expected to encounter employees from her brokerage.

"Our boss wants to see you. Please come with us," He Songping said.

"Your boss wants to see me? Why?" Nina Li asked, looking confused.

"You'll find out when you get there," He Songping said.

"Chen Hao..." Nina Li looked at Chen Hao for guidance.

"We don't have time to meet your boss," Chen Hao said, his eyes fixed on the electronic stock ticker. He didn't even glance at the two men. He then dictated a trading instruction to Nina Li.

Nina Li immediately relayed the order to their broker at Xiang Sheng Securities.

He Songping and Zhang Guoliang were annoyed. Not only did Chen Hao dismiss their request, but both he and Nina Li treated them like they were invisible. Their boss wanted to see her, and before she could even answer, this young man had rejected the invitation on her behalf! It was infuriating.

Zhang Guoliang, who had a shorter temper, wanted to lash out, but He Songping stopped him. He Songping smiled and said, "Do you have any idea who our boss is?"

"Who is your boss?" Nina Li asked curiously.

"Our boss is the Stock God of Hong Kong!" Zhang Guoliang declared proudly.
