Chapter 359: Crazy Shorting
The territory previously held by the Huadong Gang has now become the territory of Hung Hing.
And compared to when Shanjie first arrived, the area has expanded several times over.
However, these territories do not belong to the Yamaguchi-gumi, but to the Ichiwa-kai and the Tainan Gang.
After Shanjie brought his men to Japan, he immediately chose to go to war with the Tainan Gang.
Don't look down on Shanjie because he doesn't have many men; every one of them is brave and skilled in battle. Although they cannot compare to the young demon slaves under Chen Jiajun, they are definitely elite members within Hung Hing.
Scenes of one taking on ten are not rare among the Japan branches.
These Tainan Gang members were used to being carefree in Japan; where had they ever seen such fierce gang members?
"What stage? There is no stage at all; this direction is simply unfeasible," the researcher complained. "The underlying logic is wrong, and I don't know what the Doctor is thinking, spending so much money to still forcefully push this project."
It is no longer news that Gweilo establish clinical trial bases in underdeveloped countries; many countries are doing it.
Cao Weicai had already rounded up a group of stockbrokers and, relying on the money in his hands, began desperately shorting "Blood and Detection."
Shortly after, a van drove over, several people got out and quickly loaded the extras into the vehicle, then drove away brazenly in front of everyone.
A single sentence from Shanjie scared the few people so much they were like quails.
After Frank received this news, he was immediately taken aback: "What, so fast?"
"Mr. Cao, with your capital, if you keep going like this, you probably won't last a week," the stockbroker said to Cao Weicai. "Are you sure you want to do this?"
This caught many competitors off guard.
That's right, he is the guy who reported on Li Yaohua successfully overthrowing King Richard's rule in Boni back then.
Although this guy is old, his desire to court death has never diminished; instead, it has become somewhat restless.
But unfortunately, it is already impossible.
Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "This can be considered a reward for you working hard for so long."
Hearing Shanjie's words, the few illegal immigrants immediately patted their chests and agreed.
So he directly gathered his team, prepared to go to Africa with Marvin, and see if this project of Marvin's was truly reliable.
Marvin stood at the front, talking confidently and eloquently, as if he were about to become that successful person who would disrupt the market.
Unlike Marvin, the scientific research team under him did not know the ins and outs of the matter, nor did they know that this was a scam.
Shanjie's expression immediately darkened, and he said coldly, "I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you agreeing so quickly?"
Marvin immediately became a bit nervous, but with his extremely strong psychological quality, he quickly calmed down and said to the staff, "Me?"
Such things are already commonplace in Southeast Asia and India.
Then he saw a group of people stuffing his companions into oil drums and filling them with cement.
Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "If you have any ideas, communicate with me; I still have plenty of liquid capital in my hands, and I'm worrying about how to spend it."
Gao Jie, who had previously had an arm chopped off by Tietou, was even stabbed to death directly by Shanjie.
This made Randolph somewhat impatient; he had people at the base contact Marvin, only to find that the other party's phone could no longer be reached.
Because Shanjie was ruthless enough, provoking him would absolutely mean starvation for this group of illegal immigrants.
Hearing Chen Jiajun say this, Cao Weicai finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Boss."
Even the most intimate person probably wouldn't be able to tell.
What he needs to do now is to make himself unrecognizable.
At this moment, Randolph popped out from somewhere and said to Marvin, "Doctor, can you accept an interview?"
As for those who remained, except for two who died, the others were all begging for food under Shanjie.
Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "Everyone has times when they make mistakes, but your subsequent methods were very decisive, so these are not problems at all."
As for the matter of those extras, he did not hide it either.
Midnight, Kabukicho.
Hearing Chen Jiajun's bold words, Cao Weicai was filled with excitement.
And today's incident was the final test Shanjie gave them.
Taking advantage of a gap, Cao Weicai notified Frank that they were ready to take action.
"Understood, Boss." The few illegal immigrants then nodded.
"Alright everyone, we have just changed a place for research; the research for this project continues," Marvin said to his team.
There was even a young man who said something shocking.
Ever since experiencing the previous betrayal, Tietou had completely lost heart, no longer associating with this group of people, and went to live a stable, quiet life with his woman.
Seeing Shanjie bring people over, those illegal immigrants immediately came to greet him.
Unfortunately, this time, Marvin had no intention of answering; after saying these words, he left the conference room under the protection of his bodyguards.
Although they kept saying it was voluntary, only they themselves knew in their hearts whether it was humane or not.
For example, France has multiple clinical trial bases in Africa.
There were even many investment institutions scrambling to buy the company's shares.
Thinking of the way Marvin had hurriedly gone out that day, Randolph slapped himself hard; he should have thought of it sooner.
Then he asked, "May I ask what you mean by this? Is this project fake?"
After everything was ready, Marvin finally walked out of his room.
"Mm, be quick." After Cao Weicai gave the instruction, he hung up the phone, his eyes staring fixedly at the stock market.
Just from this point, one can see the gap between Shanjie and Tietou as a boss.
Marvin's high-profile outing this time did not specifically avoid the media.
When they walked onto the street, the illegal immigrants watching them stepped forward quickly, took out hammers, sticks, and such, and struck the back of the extras' heads.
The reason they came to Africa was simply because Marvin offered a high enough price.
Sample machines were placed in the test base, and Marvin only kept his own people there on the grounds of confidentiality.
After Shanjie received the target photos sent by Cao Weicai, he went straight to the hot pot restaurant.
These extras brought over from the United States by Cao Weicai walked out of the bar, drunk and staggering.
It was also time to detonate the massive thunderclap that had been set up previously.
Plus, Chen Jiajun had a good relationship with Yamaguchi-gumi boss Kusakari Yuichi, so the two gangs rarely had friction.
The young man felt very uncomfortable after being snapped at, but thinking of the salary that was nearly three times the average, he swallowed the words in his mouth.
If this report were to be smashed out, its power would be no less than a nuclear bomb, and it would definitely leave those guys in New York who fancy themselves elites charred and tender.
Upon hearing this, Frank hurriedly said, "Then I won't worry about other matters. Anyway, the antiques, gold, and jewelry of these idiots are already in hand, so I'll just pull out."
"Think about it, in the future, you will only need a drop of blood and a negligible five dollars to test data that would cost a large sum of money to test in a hospital. I think this is a subversion for the market."
Seeing that the few people dared not make a sound, Shanjie continued, "Do the job cleanly; don't cause too much of a stir. After finishing off the few people, go to the pier by the sea, stuff them into oil drums, fill them with cement, and sink them into the sea."
Time rewinds to two days ago, when things were still calm and peaceful over in the United States.
After the car came to a steady stop, they discovered they had already arrived at the seaside.
To be honest, he hadn't thought it through, so he said to Chen Jiajun, "Boss, to tell you the truth, I haven't made a plan yet. After I finish this matter, I will spend some time considering it properly."
If the scale needs to be expanded, a certain amount of interest-based stimulation is still required.
Marvin said with a sullen face, "Young man, what's needed is to learn more, not to ask questions everywhere; do your own job well."
If the salary weren't high enough, who would be willing to come to this hellhole in Africa to feed mosquitoes?
After all, he had both money and power these years, and he still wanted to win a Pulitzer Prize again.
And the one with the biggest reputation was Randolph Carroll.
Randolph waited for a day and a night without seeing Marvin return.
Shanjie waved his hand and said, "Don't pull that stuff with me; there are things I've entrusted you to do. If you don't do them well this time, just get out and patrol the streets in the future."
The researcher was stunned for a moment and said, "You mean this blood testing project?"
This matter could not be entrusted to others, so Marvin intended to do it himself. After all, he could count as a doctor himself and knew how to change his appearance without causing serious harm to himself.
What Chen Jiajun meant by these words was that no matter what ideas he had over in the United States, Chen Jiajun would support him.
After obtaining the fake passport and check sent by Cao Weicai, Marvin intended to ditch his team and leave.
"If this clinical trial can be successful, our company will be the first to put the equipment I have developed onto the market."
One must know that many Wall Street bigwigs had once been quite optimistic about Marvin's "Blood and Detection" company.
One of the editors-in-chief of the *Miami Herald*, and also a winner of the Pulitzer Prize.
"But Doctor." At this moment, a young man in the team hesitated for a moment, but still said to Marvin, "Hasn't it already been proven that the test has no effect? Why specifically come here to Africa to continue?"
This matter had been prepared beforehand, so there were no twists and turns.
However, this kind of thing is not fresh; as long as it is a company, they will all do this.
The next day, the "Blood and Detection" company held a press conference; Dr. Marvin's clinical trial had been approved, and the location was Uganda in Africa.
These people, let alone betraying Shanjie, didn't even dare to let this thought appear now.
Getting into the vehicle prepared by the company, Marvin took one last look at New York, a place not worth lingering over, and then headed to the airport.
This place was previously the stronghold of the South China Gang, and now it is also being operated by a group of people from the South China Gang.
"After this matter, do you have any thoughts?" Chen Jiajun asked again.
Upon hearing this news, a strange feeling immediately began to linger in Randolph's heart.
After stabilizing the team, Marvin contacted Cao Weicai.
Thinking of this, Randolph immediately grabbed the cameraman who was still in a daze, and directly led his subordinates to leave the base in a hurry, returning to the hotel.
On the other side, inside the test base.
As for Cao Weicai himself, he returned directly to the United States.
Therefore, quite a few reporters had already set their sights on Marvin.
Cao Weicai told Chen Jiajun in detail about the things that had happened in the last half month.
Just as he was walking out of the base with his things, someone suddenly called out to him halfway.
Marvin's subordinate research team soon began their work.
But he could never have dreamed that Marvin was already prepared to run away at this time.
After interviewing several researchers in a row, the theories obtained were all about the same.
Thinking of this, Marvin couldn't help but reveal a smile.
"Many thanks, Boss, many thanks, Boss." Cao Weicai hurriedly thanked him.
They were originally waiting for Marvin's project to die in the cradle, waiting for this project to explode.
Cao Weicai stayed in Japan for half a month and discovered that this model could no longer attract people.
After inquiring about Marvin's technical team and learning that they couldn't contact Dr. Marvin himself, Randolph's premonition became stronger and stronger.
So after communicating with Frank, he still left the matters in Japan to Frank.
Cao Weicai sneered and said, "Confirmed, and it won't take a week. Three days at most."
But the money was in Cao Weicai's hands, so they could only do as told.
They didn't let the people at the clinical trial base intervene at all.
Looking at the report in the newspaper, Marvin was a bit distracted at this moment.
To put it nicely, it's a clinical trial base; to put it bluntly, it's using Africans as material for human experimentation.
After confirming that the other party had not broken their promise, Marvin locked himself in the room.
Having someone book tomorrow's flight, Randolph made a phone call to the newspaper office, demanding to reserve a front-page headline spot.
Such a confident appearance made the reporters off-stage unable to help but be moved.
The extras, who were already dead drunk, how could they withstand such a heavy blow? They fell down on the spot.
After obtaining these materials, Randolph was immediately excited.
He said directly that this project was just for swindling funding and was a complete waste of time.
"That's right." Randolph nodded.
They were beaten back step by step.
Randolph sized up Marvin and saw that he indeed looked like he was in a hurry to go out, so he didn't think much more and nodded in agreement.
But he hadn't expected things to progress so smoothly.
"If all of this were true, how wonderful would that be?" Marvin muttered to himself.
The small company that had been on the verge of bankruptcy was suddenly revitalized, and its stock price soared from less than one dollar to over a dozen bucks.
If it were true, then naturally there would be nothing to say; at the very least, it would allow him to gain another wave of fame in this industry.
It was just that this group of people was good at petty theft and dealing Laundry Powder, but if they were really asked to engage in a gang shootout, they would almost be scared enough to wet their pants.
They walked with their arms around each other's shoulders, looking very happy.
"Is the plan successful?" Chen Jiajun in Hong Kong was talking on the phone with Cao Weicai.
A staff member at the base said to Marvin: "Doctor, there is a reporter who wants to interview you."
Cao Weicai was also caught off guard by this accident and said helplessly: "The plan cannot keep up with the changes; the Boss told us to quit while we're ahead."
Hearing the researcher's words, Randolph immediately became excited.
After all, Marvin was not just making empty talk; he really had papers published and projects in progress.
The next day, the entire medical market in the United States had exploded.
With this, the Tainan Gang withdrew directly from the Shinjuku area.
So Randolph didn't even think about it and chartered a plane directly to Uganda, intending to get Marvin's first-hand information.
During this time, one of the extras had not completely passed out, but was just too dizzy to get up.
"It's not that it's fake, it's just that this project has only ever existed in theory and is impossible to realize, let alone achieve what the Doctor hopes for—being able to detect multiple diseases from just a single drop of blood." The researcher thought for a moment and explained to Randolph.
Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Cao Weicai was stunned.
Marvin looked at the empty room, composed himself, and put on his suit.
Subsequently, they divided the territory of the Yixin Society with the Yamaguchi-gumi, directly changing the original three-way balance of power in the Shinjuku area into the current situation of the Yamaguchi-gumi and Hung Hing as the two great powers.
"I received news that a reporter from the Miami Herald has already arrived in Africa, and I estimate that the news probably can't be suppressed anymore." Cao Weicai said anxiously to Frank: "Marvin is probably already preparing to run away by now; don't stay where you are either. If you don't leave now, you probably won't be able to leave at all."
And those capitalists who had originally favored Marvin's "Blood and Detection" company were like sharks smelling blood, pouncing directly and driving up the stock price of Marvin's company by several more limit-ups.
It was also because several people were drunk that they didn't notice several pairs of eyes staring at them from the entrance of the Bar.
If it were fake, wouldn't his Pulitzer Prize be coming?
So the reporters in the audience scrambled to get Marvin to answer questions.
Although there is no visible change now, after enough time passes, he will be unrecognizable.
Marvin did not expect that he would actually attract a reporter like Randolph who had won a Pulitzer Prize. While surprised, he also prepared his excuse: "Sorry, could I trouble you to wait for me for a moment? I have some urgent business that requires me to go to the airport now. After I return, I will accept your interview, Mr. Randolph."
And Marvin's clinical trial this time was to contact a clinical trial base here in France.
His son had already been sent to Belgium first; he only needed to finish this last act to be rid of all his debts and everything in the United States.
Afterward, he took his cameraman and entered Marvin's research facility.
So he just found a researcher and asked: "What stage has your team's project reached?"
After Marvin drove to the airport, he put on a fake beard, used a fake passport, and headed directly to Belgium. From this moment on, the person known as Doctor Marvin disappeared from this world.
The researcher's words stunned Randolph on the spot.
This guy endured the excruciating pain, pulled out two of his own teeth to make his facial muscles atrophy, and then used a special potion to burn his skin.
This series of events happened in an instant; the pedestrians on the street hadn't even reacted before the van had already left the scene.
If this matter were reported, it would definitely cause a massive earthquake in the United States.
This move made a group of stockbrokers very surprised.
Young people are indeed newborn calves that are not afraid of tigers; compared to those old hands, they are much more straightforward.
If it weren't for the fact that Shanjie considered that they were all Huaxia people, Shanjie would have long since driven this group of losers out to beg for food.
But it's not too late now.
Although he didn't know why Cao Weicai was so certain, the stockbroker couldn't say much.
After all, there are so many people in the United States with brain problems.
Cao Weicai is only just getting started. (End of chapter)
