Reborn with Consumption System

So at the very beginning is the guessing phase: The bull market should be coming soon, right?

In the middle phase comes the bewilderment: Why is the resistance so weak? Could the bull market really be coming?

In the final phase is the certainty: Damn, it’s rising fiercely, the bull market is here!

Let’s go, folks, charge!

Look, that’s what professionals are all about, apart from charlatans, no expert can accurately predict the market.

Most of the time, they’re just talking big while gritting their teeth; if they’re right, they knew it already, if they’re wrong, they find excuses.

The real difference between masters and amateurs is never in some grandiose magical prediction.

It’s the ability to plunge in with strict discipline the first moment the market shows a certain degree of certainty.

Retail investors usually only get in at the final phase, having not experienced the entire process, so their grasp of the overall market trend is quite weak.

They should focus more on discipline then.

If you can’t do it yourself, learn from the experts.

If you can’t understand, then replicate.

When to enter, when to cut losses, how to set take-profit... There are plenty of tutorials online.

No matter how rigid your learning is, having discipline is better than not having it. Following the rules is definitely safer than messing around by yourself.

History will always repeat itself, there’s nothing new in the market.

For example, the overall environment, internal structure, and consistent process in turbulence from 2014 will all happen again in the future.

However, the focus is never on the level of a new wave of a bull market and the order of rotation.

The focus is—if given another chance, do we have a clear understanding, strict discipline, and unshakable determination?

As long as you sort out these three points, no matter what style you adopt or techniques you use, you can always make money.

...

By the end of April, just before the last trading day, the stock index naturally fell back.

During big holidays, holding cash is often a safer choice.

But Han Lie ignored those, managed to put 14.5 billion out of a total of 24.5 billion in funds.

billion was self-owned, the remaining 145 billion was leverage.

The reason it wasn’t maxed out at 2 times leverage is that Citic didn’t have any left.

Fun fact: The funds a brokerage can provide in margin trading depend on how much balance it has. By the end of April, the total financing scale in the entire A-share market was over 550 billion, with Citic accounting for over 70 billion, and Han Lie used up one-fifth of that.

Given the current situation, if Han Lie wants to issue a third fund product during the bull market, he has to open a new account with another brokerage.

There are currently two directions for the new product.

One option is to go back to Dream City for hometown financing, mainly to absorb idle cash from mining bosses, the benefit being a continuously developing blood bank.

The second option is to authorize Gu Zicheng to raise funds in the entertainment industry.

What Jia Xiaozhou could do, Da Cheng can do too.

It doesn’t need to be too large, 2-3 billion, only accepting investments with the highest added value in the industry, filling the quota effortlessly.

The benefit is being able to develop the grand entertainment industry from a higher perspective and accommodate existing and future expansions.

The downside is that Han Lie doesn’t much care for it...

But no matter which choice is made, come May, they can start creating buzz.

Since it takes time to spread the influence, this time they will take it slow, using a carrot to entice them, until September or later, to maximize interests.

For example, the housing prices in Dream Garden, if not speculated for a few months, how can it be comparable to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen?

On May 1st, Han Lie made a trip back to Dream City.

The little follower, Pan, wanted to come but didn’t dare to follow alone, so she urged Xi Luting to go with her, but the cucumber master preferred to stay at home typing and completely ignored her.

The Bai sisters reached a critical point where they needed to be cautious with their words and actions and took the initiative to keep their distance from Han Lie.

Among the remaining people, the Sweet Orange Combo each has their own careers, even busier during the holidays, with no time;

Naiyun was impatient to go home and bring glory to her ancestors—heaven knows how she planned to explain the source of Mr. Yu’s origins to her family and flaunt her branded outfits to friends and classmates.

Qing Ting had already joined the crew and started filming "You Are My Sunshine," with no vacation at all.

Han Lie hasn’t even gone to check it once yet, being quite irresponsible.

Zha Zha was also preparing for "Love O2O," by the way, this major project still hasn’t found a male lead, with the start date looming in May, leaving Su Xiao with a headache.

Director Lin Yufen was still persistent, sneakily urging everyone to report the situation to President Han.

Report what?

To ask President Han to play Xiao Nai!

Zha Zha, that silly girl, was the most enthusiastic, pulling out all the stops and practically ready to cling to Han Lie’s leg and beg him.

"Come on! I want to have a sweet romance with you in the series, I’m begging you~~~"

Get lost!

Of course, Han Lie wouldn’t agree.

It’s not that he looks down on actors. Good actors, like Li Xuejian, Wang Zhiwen, You Benchang, and many others, are artists, how could that be shameful?

Honestly, ever since Han Lie unlocked top-notch acting skills, he always wanted to find an opportunity to arm wrestle with domestic film emperors and empresses, every time he saw classic performances in films, he felt a surge of eagerness to try.

This is akin to having a dangerous weapon instilling a desire to kill.

Acting in minor roles like small potatoes or cucumbers, what a waste of such great skills.

But this impulse doesn’t include acting in idol dramas as a traffic star.

That kind of fame is meaningless.

So starring in "Love O2O" is impossible, but if there comes a time when he becomes so cool he can’t hide it, he might as well learn from Jack Ma, create his own script, gather ten film emperors and empresses, and shoot a "Huo Qubing," "The Story of Liu Xiu," or a high-end version of "In the Name of the People"... how great would that be?
