163: The flight radius is 5200 kilometers! This is the Dilophosaurus!!!
【"I've held onto it for so long, what's a little longer? It's bound to rebound tomorrow."】
【"Don't try to persuade me. If I lose money, will you compensate me?"】
【"It's hard to save those who are determined to die, and great mercy cannot save those who insist on destroying themselves. Do whatever the hell you want!"】
【"Rumor has it that what came in around three o'clock today wasn't hot money, but a real behemoth."】
【"A behemoth? I think it's just a piece of shit!"】
【"Don't use vulgar language, let's all be civilized!"】
【"Don't interrupt, OP. I want the truth about the behemoth."】
【"What's with the riddles? Haven't you guys read today's news? Nifeng Express seems to have partnered with Julong Steel. It's said that the General Manager of Julong Steel even came out to endorse Nifeng Express."】
【"Endorse? That's it? Nifeng Express's stock price hit the daily limit down?"】
【"I don't really get what's going on with Nifeng Express, but if Julong Steel is really planning to play along, they are indeed a powerful backer."】
【"Stop dreaming. I've heard of Julong Steel before; they only deal in real industry and don't mess with empty stuff."】
【"Do whatever you want, I'm cutting my losses tomorrow morning regardless."】
The shareholders of Nifeng Express were wailing in despair, while the culprit, Lu Shenwei, was busy eating and drinking again.
Bai Xiaoying said distractedly: "Nifeng Express really hit the daily limit down this afternoon."
"Mhm, didn't I say that this morning?"
Lu Shenwei poked at the old Beijing soybean paste noodles in his bowl without lifting his head.
"Director Lu, aren't you worried about what will happen if Nifeng Express's stock continues to fall tomorrow?"
Bai Xiaoying rested her chin on one hand, having no appetite to eat.
Lu Shenwei put down his bowl and chopsticks: "What's there to worry about? Even if it all goes to zero, it's only 300 million. It's not worth worrying about."
"You're rich and generous, but I invested 1 million. That's half a year of my hard-earned money," Bai Xiaoying muttered.
1 million? Didn't I hear Zhou Cun say yesterday that this young lady only invested 550,000?
"Did the price go up?"
Bai Xiaoying said dejectedly: "It's just because I wanted to earn a bit more to get a better house for my parents."
"Get a new house for your family? You should ask our Zhou Cun; his family has plenty of houses," Lu Shenwei teased.
Zhou Cun smiled: "The Chairman is joking with you. We are full of confidence."
"Don't be, there are risks in the stock market, enter with caution," Lu Shenwei said seriously.
Hearing this, Bai Xiaoying felt even more anxious.
Seeing her bewildered expression, Lu Shenwei chuckled: "I'm not teasing you anymore. Tomorrow morning, when Nifeng Express's stock falls again, we'll buy some more."
"Buy more? Isn't that just being a complete sucker?" Bai Xiaoying asked in surprise.
Lu Shenwei cleared his throat: "In these past few years, I've only ever been scammed by Locke Dongde Niu Ding Company. You can rest assured."
The next day, the drone airshow continued, but without the intense smell of gunpowder from the first day.
The Sky Overlord from Crazy Rabbit Express had stolen the spotlight yesterday. Today, they added another drone, making a formation of four taking off together—it was incredibly cool.
Lu Shenwei said disdainfully: "Trash. Has the stock market opened yet?"
"It just opened. Nifeng Express's stock price continues to fall. Retail investors are fleeing frantically, and a stampede has already begun," Zhou Cun said.
Lu Shenwei laughed: "Wait until it hits rock bottom, then buy another 300 million worth. General Manager Wang asked us to set the stage for the show but didn't give us any performance fee, so we'll earn this money ourselves."
Just as Lu Shenwei finished speaking, Wang Jiawei arrived at the scene with the media.
"Director Lu, can we start now?"
His own stock's decline had reached nearly 9.2% again, and with it about to hit the limit down, Wang Jiawei didn't dare to gamble.
Lu Shenwei nodded: "Let's begin!"
The reporters' cameras and microphones were aimed at Lu Shenwei, with spotlights and lenses locked on him.
But after that one breezy "Let's begin," Lu Shenwei walked straight back off the stage to rest.
"What's going on?"
"Is this a new trick from Director Lu? How are we supposed to report this?"
"Didn't General Manager Wang say Director Lu prepared a big plane? Where is the plane?"
The reporters were confused, and the shareholders waiting for the stock price to skyrocket were even more so.
【"Is this the Director Lu of Julong Steel? A performance artist?"】
【"That's it? What about the plane that was promised?"】
【"I knew it, this is a fucking scam. Nifeng Express's stock price hit the limit down again, damn it."】
【"Where is the brother who told me not to cut my losses yesterday? Come out, I promise I won't kill you."】
【"Fuck your mother! My heart hurts so much!"】
The shareholders wailed, and a reporter rushed toward Lu Shenwei with a microphone.
"Director Lu, I heard your company has prepared an ultra-large drone for a test flight today. Is this true?"
"It is true."
Lu Shenwei pointed to the southwest sky.
"What do you mean by that?"
"It will take some time for our plane to fly here."
"This... may I ask where your company's plane took off from?"
"Qin Chuan Julong Steel Factory, what do you think?"
"Ah? Qin Chuan? That's at least 1200 kilometers away from the capital. Are you sure?"
Lu Shenwei rolled his eyes at the reporter and began to close his eyes and rest.
【"Bullshit! What kind of shitty drone can fly 1200 kilometers non-stop?"】
【"Fuck! I think the R&D funds invested by Nifeng Express are going down the drain."】
【"Fuck, my money! The stock has hit the limit down twice in a row. I'm going crazy."】
Online, the abuse was rampant, but Lu Shenwei remained calm: "What's everyone rushing for? Let the plane fly for a while."
【"Director Lu says whatever he wants, while the shareholders lose everything."】
【"It's none of Director Lu's business. Director Lu didn't tell you to buy the stock."】
Netizens argued endlessly, while far away in the Qin Chuan Julong Steel Factory.
The hangar doors of the climate-controlled hangar slowly opened.
The Double Bone Dragon ultra-large unmanned transport aircraft finally unveiled its mysterious veil, with its silver-gray coating and oversized landing gear tires.
The wings, which had been retracted into the fuselage, slowly unfolded, fully revealing its majestic posture.
A wingspan of 25 meters, a 13-meter-long fuselage, and a height of 3.6 meters all spoke of its heroic bearing.
The crowd at Julong Steel said with satisfaction: "The Double Bone Dragon will definitely amaze everyone!"
"From our takeoff in Qin Chuan to the airshow in the suburbs of the capital, it's over a thousand kilometers, right?"
"1362 kilometers. But don't worry, the Double Bone Dragon designed by our factory has a maximum flight radius of 5200 kilometers. Taking off from our factory area, it's enough to cover more than half of the Blue Star."
While they were talking, Mu Guchan set up her camera and started a live stream.
"Hello everyone, I am Mu Guchan. I am currently at the aerospace manufacturing zone of the Qin Chuan Julong Steel Factory. Behind me, slowly taxiing, is the latest generation of ultra-large unmanned transport aircraft from Julong Steel Factory—the Double Bone Dragon!"
Mu Guchan's voice was bright, but since she had just stepped into the field of internet live streaming, there were hardly any people in the live stream room.
【"No way? Did Julong Steel really build an ultra-large drone?"】
【"This wingspan is at least over 20 meters. Julong Steel is really going to be awesome now!"】
【"Strange, why is there no buzz online at all?"】
【"@Brother Qi @Bai Xiaoying @Lord Lian @Xiaodao @Yan Sanying @Gold Medal Lecture, come quickly to watch the big plane!"】
【"Tagging the others is fine, but the Lecture has already been banned by Eagle Sauce for not aligning with Eagle Sauce's values. He can no longer stand and beg for food."】
