I Slaughtered Through the Dungeon Worlds with My Cheats
Chapter 609 - 269: Crimson Preferred Goes Public, Golden City Gala [Request for Monthly Tickets!]_4

A beam of golden light radiated from the invitation, enveloping Mu Rufeng within, and then he disappeared on the spot.

...

Meanwhile, on an open space in the Scarlet Logistics Park.

The area was brightly lit, with a large crowd gathered.

At the forefront, a stage had also been erected.

All the senior executives of Crimson Preferred were assembled here.

When Xu He struck the massive bronze gong, Crimson Preferred officially went public.

At the same time, Crimson Preferred also released a considerable number of shares, totaling thirty percent.

This thirty percent was further divided into one billion shares, each priced at sixty dollars.

From this, it was evident that Xu He and his team had released shares at a valuation of two hundred billion for Crimson Preferred. (I don't understand stocks, pardon my ignorance!)

Despite the significant release of shares, actual control still remained with Crimson Preferred itself and Xu He.

This brings us to the structure of the shareholdings, where even if outsiders acquired this thirty percent, they would find it hard to shake the positions of the two parties.

The intricacies here are too numerous to detail.

By securing sixty billion in cash, their group was able to expand once more, and they were also poised to acquire the soon-to-be-bankrupt Wangxi's Choice with this funding.

However, despite the high price, there was still a large influx of investors buying, buying, and buying.

It was clear to any discerning person that the share price of Crimson Preferred could only climb higher, and there was no possibility of it falling.

Buying in meant making a profit.

Simultaneously, on the platform of Crimson Preferred, a multitude of coupons were distributed, and many precious items began to be sold.

The purchase limit for fresh flesh was doubly relaxed for everyone.

Instantly, a vast wave of traffic swarmed in, all eager customers.

Behind the stage, several huge screens displayed the stock market trends of Crimson Preferred.

Naturally, share prices were climbing steadily.

Below the stage, various reporters were filming, taking pictures, and even live-streaming.

The population in the Mysterious World, compared to the real world, was genuinely more abundant, and the viewership numbers weren't small either, reaching several millions.

On the stage, it appeared that the executives of Crimson Preferred were present, but Xu He's physical body was still safely seated in his office.

Besides him, Lilith, Xu Yin, Liu Dao, and several other Level 8 Ghost Kings were in the office.

Directly in front of the office were several large screens displaying the stock trend software.

To the sides were multiple figures, and upon a closer look, it was apparent their silhouettes were somewhat ethereal, clearly not their physical bodies but phantoms.

Counting them, there were a good dozen or so, with the two most significant figures likely being Zhou Cheng, the branch manager of Heaven and Earth Bank, and Sun Wu, the Tower Master of Treasure Tower.

Sun Wu, taking over from Lu Xueqing, must have had some connection with the Tower Master.

Although both of these individuals were Level 8 Ghost Kings and not the most powerful in terms of strength, their status was unquestionably top-notch.

Including Xu He, there were a total of three Level 9 Ghost Emperors.

Now, this group had gathered here, naturally, they were ready to begin their grand counter-offensive.

They had all been eagerly awaiting this moment.

"President Xu, there's still no movement from Undead's Choice and Wangxi's Choice," a director spoke up.

"Haha, how could they possibly make a move? Our stock price is still climbing, how could there be any movement."

"Once our Crimson Preferred's stock price reaches a certain ceiling, they will make their move."

"At that time, they should start shorting our stock price, and then after releasing unfavorable news about us, causing the stock price to fall, they'll be able to make a hefty profit."

"When that time comes, it will be our turn to take the stage."

"No need to hurry now, let the bullets fly for a while. I've arranged for the channels of Wangxi's Choice in the real world to be destroyed during the daytime."

"As for now, we'll just quietly watch," Xu He said with a light smile.

Hearing this, smiles appeared on everyone's faces.

Those present had all subscribed to a portion of the shares, totaling about fifteen percent, while the remaining fifteen percent was allocated to individual investors.

In just this short period, they had already earned a considerable profit.

However, making money was secondary; the most important thing was to deal a significant blow to Wangxi's Choice and the Youtai Trading Association behind it in the upcoming period.

...

When Mu Rufeng regained consciousness, he found himself already within the Golden City.

This was the genuine Golden City, not the high-rise building from before.

A small city with a diameter of dozens of kilometers sat atop a sea of gold.

Within the city, everything was golden; all the buildings and roads were cast from gold.

There was even a golden city wall that stood thirty feet high.

At this moment, Mu Rufeng stood at the gateway to this small city.

Above the city gate hung a signboard inscribed with the three big characters "Golden City."

Apart from Mu Rufeng, there were thousands of others belonging to the Abnormality gathered here.

Ghost Kings, all of them Level 8 Ghost Kings.

"So many Level 8 Ghost Kings?" Mu Rufeng was slightly surprised.

However, what surprised him more was the absence of any Level 9 Ghost Emperors.

It seemed impossible that not a single Level 9 Ghost Emperor would attend this once-in-a-decade grand gathering of the Golden City.

"Haha, finally the once-in-a-decade grand gathering of the Golden City is here again, and this time, I've starved myself for a whole month. I must eat my fill this time."
