Resurrection Empire

Chapter 705 265: This Person is Unfathomable, with Grand Schemes_2

Mr. Huang: "I don't see it that way. After all, the Mengdu Group has dominated the biomedical field on Source Star for..."

Here it comes, a new blunt prediction.

It's said that with the guidance of the Immortal Huang, Mengdu's soul is shattered on the spot.

Ren Zhong rebutted with a smile, "So... in nearly a century, has the Mengdu Group, with such immense resources, achieved any significant scientific advancements? No! Has their market value grown significantly?"

"Neither. According to Source Star Financial News, the market value growth of Mengdu Group over the past century has not even kept pace with the GDP growth of the entire Source Star. So what have they been doing? Both the Legion Beast project and the ongoing brain implantation project are just wasting money."

"I don't see any real value in these projects. The decision-makers need some excuses to convert monopolistic excess profits into personal assets for some parasites."

"It's already decaying. In the game 'Wilderness Era,' I learned an idiom—'a centipede dies but never falls down completely.'

Ren Zhong's words caused an uproar in the audience.

He had spoken very harshly.

The host immediately checked the time, then awkwardly smiled at the virtual camera, "Sorry everyone, the thirty-minute interview is up. Now, please watch the XXX program. See you next time."

With a snap, the signal was cut off.

Cutting off the live signal was merely an action of this major self-media, but it was useless.

Although Mengdu Group's high-level executives were furious, the "Net" did not block the information.

This interview, which lasted only twenty-two minutes after being trimmed at both ends, went viral, completely viral.

Ren Zhong knew by looking at the rapidly increasing real-time dividend amount in his personal account.

He checked the stock market interface.

Whoa.

Before the interview even ended, especially after Immortal Huang expressed his long-term optimism, a lot of short positions had already appeared in Mengdu Group's stock interface, and the list of sell orders began to accelerate gradually.

In the few minutes while Ren Zhong was watching the market, a large number of short positions suddenly emerged.

Ren Zhong did some quick calculations; without a doubt, the Promotion Association had also joined in.

From then on, even though the Legion Beast experiment had not concluded, Mengdu Group's stock price began to visibly decline.

Ren Zhong's strike was a severe blow to the main artery of the Mengdu Group.

Perhaps, the leadership of this colossal entity never dreamt that a small experiment randomly performed to deal with a mere town that had just regained its footing was like stepping into a hornet's nest.

Just as Ren Zhong had thought a long time ago, as long as there is a lever strong enough, a single finger can lift the Earth; as long as the timing and method are right, even ants can shake the tree.

Where there is profit, there is loss. The explosion of the interview video suppressed the popularity of his personal combat recordings, which were uploaded immediately afterward, resulting in only eight hundred thousand paid views within the first hour for the video with an exceedingly long title.

But Ren Zhong was not in a hurry, as both viral clips were related to him, and the traffic between them would convert, forming a complementary effect.

Long-term returns would not be affected but would only increase.

At eight o'clock at night, he hopped off the fitness equipment, sweating profusely, and walked towards the living room.

Ju Qingmeng, who was studying documents at the table, looked up in confusion, "What's up?"

Ren Zhong usually engaged in intensive training from seven-thirty to eight-thirty, so something was up since he only trained for half an hour.

Ren Zhong smiled, "A guest will arrive soon, I need to make some tea."

Ju Qingmeng nodded, "You go take a shower first. I'll make the tea."

"Alright."

By the time Ren Zhong finished his shower and came out, two cups of steaming aromatic tea were already placed on the coffee table in the living room.

Ju Qingmeng had already gone upstairs.

Although Ren Zhong said nothing, she had developed a habit of avoiding such situations on her own.

She knew Ren Zhong was a Fifth Level Citizen, and she, though being his woman, was only a Third Level Citizen.

According to Source Star's laws, she was not allowed to hear information beyond her Citizen Level.

Watching the stairs, lost in thought, Ren Zhong understood her thoughts.

Now, he no longer experienced particularly intense emotional fluctuations easily.

But at this moment, ripples stirred in his heart once again.

Sooner or later, the "Net" must be disconnected; a family should only speak in one language. What kind of life is it otherwise?

The doorbell rang.

Ren Zhong got up and walked towards the entrance.

He needed to receive the visitor with respect.

Standing outside the door was a sturdy middle-aged man in a gray-black jacket.
