Chapter 7: The Power Behind the Scenes
1512 Words
But now, all problems have been resolved.
After receiving guidance from an expert, they successfully avoided this crisis.
To put it simply, those people were always just minor players under the wealthy, never having been given significant roles or access to the true insider information about the stock market.
Now, hearing Qin Feng’s analysis, the insider had a strong intuition.
Qin Feng must be a big shot in the stock market!
Otherwise, he wouldn’t know so much about the market and be able to explain unknown knowledge so clearly.
Even those above him only had a superficial understanding of stock market information and were nowhere near as insightful as Qin Feng.
Even though your job may seem respectable on the surface and your status high, in reality, you have never been given serious consideration by the big shots behind the scenes.
Including the boss he had served, who had never truly acknowledged him or shared any insider information about the stocks.
It seemed more reasonable to learn directly from Qin Feng than from his boss.
“If I can contact such an expert, maybe I can turn my fate around.”
Having realized this, the insider also regained confidence.
Sticking with his current boss, even if he worked his hardest, he would not achieve any significant status in years.
There was even a chance he might remain a lackey for his whole life, with all his efforts and youth wasted.
Compared to such an ending, he would rather venture out on his own.
But with his current abilities, if he went solo, he wouldn’t have any stock information or knowledge, making it impossible to succeed.
So Qin Feng was the best choice in his mind.
If he could get in touch with him or obtain a contact method, he would no longer be a subordinate.
He could become a big boss himself!
After realizing this, the insider spoke to Qian Youwei with an unusually polite tone.
“It seems Mr. Qian is destined to have such an expert. Such talent is a once-in-a-century genius, and today he truly predicted the stock market’s development for several years.”
“If I had such ability, I wouldn’t have to suffer under my boss anymore.”
The insider's words were filled with envy, making Qian Youwei feel quite honored.
To be honest, before today’s incident, Qian Youwei hadn’t noticed anything particularly impressive about Qin Feng.
Even now, he still didn’t understand Qin Feng’s abilities very well.
After all, he was just a rich man who couldn’t even comprehend the stock market and relied on others to handle it. He couldn’t possibly understand the information Qin Feng provided.
He was grateful because Qin Feng had saved him and helped him recover so many losses.
As for how powerful Qin Feng was, Qian Youwei didn’t truly understand.
“Mr. Qian seems very modest.”
The insider, having already hooked Qian Youwei’s interest, continued to flatter him.
“Mr. Qian, I’ve actually been wanting to tell you that I have many good stocks in the market, which I can reveal to you now.”
“To prove our friendship, these stocks are like a gift from me. Although making a fortune might be unlikely, small profits each year are still decent.”
Qian Youwei paid close attention to the insider's words.
“Really?”
Qian Youwei knew that if the insider was telling the truth, receiving some stocks for free would be like winning the lottery.
“Would I lie to you after all these years of friendship?”
The insider patted his chest and swore to the sky.
The reason the insider was giving Qian Youwei so much information was not to continue cooperating with him but to get information about Qin Feng from him.
After all, the only person currently in contact with Qin Feng was this foolish rich man.
If he could successfully connect with Qin Feng, the benefits would be far greater than a few stocks!
Qian Youwei wasn’t a fool. Seeing the insider’s enthusiasm, he was inevitably surprised.
“Qin Feng’s strength is really that great?”
If he could, the insider’s high income would not be spent flattering a mere rich man.
The fact that they were so attentive was enough to show how highly they regarded Qin Feng.
However, Qian Youwei understood the situation but did not show it on the surface.
Knowing Qin Feng’s abilities, Qian Youwei had some ideas in mind.
Although he was a foolish rich man, he was not unintelligent. Reaching this level required some brains.
With such a rare talent, how could he not seize the opportunity?
He must build a good relationship with Qin Feng while he had the chance.
Meanwhile, the insider also shared information about a few stocks with Qian Youwei.
Even if one searched through the entire stock market, there were only a few promising stocks.
Now that the insider had revealed this information, he had practically shown all his cards.
Hearing the insider’s words, Qian Youwei was increasingly excited.
Now that he had Qin Feng’s advice, he no longer needed to actively research stock market trends.
This student in front of him was a genuine cash cow!
As long as he treated him well, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future!
As for the phone call, the insider also revealed his true purpose.
“Mr. Qian, I’ve shared everything I know. Actually, I have one more favor to ask. Could you provide me with Mr. Qin’s contact information?”
However, Qian Youwei was currently focused on Qin Feng and didn’t pay attention to the insider’s request.
“A cash cow, hahaha.”
At the same time, outsiders found Qian Youwei’s behavior strange.
Wasn’t he just yelling at Qin Feng a moment ago, wishing he could tear him apart?
Why was he now smiling and treating Qin Feng so well?
Could it be that he was not in his right mind?
Meanwhile, the arriving police officers looked at the two and were somewhat uncertain.
“Mr. Qian, I believe you reported the incident. Should we take him away now?”
After all, the reported loss of several million was just Qian Youwei’s word.
To get an accurate assessment, professional evaluation agencies were needed. Qian Youwei’s testimony alone was not sufficient.
Hearing the police, Qian Youwei immediately adopted a relaxed demeanor.
“How could you say that about my benefactor? Why would you arrest him?”
“I’m grateful to him!”
Hearing this, everyone on the scene was even more confused.
What was going on?
Just a moment ago, he was adamant about sending Qin Feng to prison.
How could he change his mind in just a few hours?
But the situation was not over. Qian Youwei walked up to Qin Feng in front of everyone.
With sincere intentions, Qian Youwei bowed to Qin Feng.
“I’m sorry. I was blind earlier and wronged you.”
“But rest assured, such things will not happen again. I apologize for my previous actions.”
It was no joke—missing out on a talent like Qin Feng would make him regret for a lifetime.
To outsiders, this scene was even more incomprehensible.
What was going on?
Why was a wealthy and influential person like Qian Youwei apologizing to a young man?
And why was he so humble?
Qian Youwei was known for his straightforward and poor temper. Apart from his superiors, finding someone he would treat so respectfully was rare.
Yet, today he was so apologetic and humble.
If news of this spread, no one would believe it.
“What is this young man’s background? Why does a student make Qian Youwei so respectful?”
Many of the onlookers were newcomers and didn’t know the previous events.
Even in the entire city, Qian Youwei was a highly renowned figure.
Even if the mayor were standing in front of him, it wouldn’t make him so deferential.
From appearances alone, Qin Feng looked like an ordinary student.
Combined with his originally low-key attire, Qin Feng looked more like a young man just entering society, with nothing to make him stand out.
But their confusion didn’t change Qian Youwei’s attitude.
Qian Fu, standing aside, observed everything.
Originally curious about why Qin Feng had him sell all his stocks, Qian Fu now saw that Qin Feng was indeed right and had saved him!
No one else could make his father lower his attitude so much except Qin Feng!
Meanwhile, the arriving police officers felt somewhat awkward.
They were supposed to arrest Qin Feng, but with the way things were developing, their presence seemed unnecessary.
“Officer, thank you for your trouble.”
“It’s good that the misunderstanding has been cleared up.”
Seeing Qian Youwei’s apology, the police didn’t linger and left promptly.
Qian Fu watched everything with admiration and respect.
Seeing his father treat Qin Feng with such respect made Qian Fu feel like he had found a strong ally.
He was very excited about this new big brother he had just met.
