The Great Sage Returns from Ten Years of Imprisonment

Ling Yun looked at this business tycoon and said with a smile:

"Chairman Jin, I didn't want this mess to happen either, but as President Chen said, this incident isn't my fault!"

"I'm sorry I can't help you with the losses you've suffered, but I believe that with the abilities of the owners, they'll be able to earn them back quickly."

That's not how you say it.

Another investor chimed in, his tone tinged with accusation.

"Although this incident wasn't your fault, you are, after all, an investment team."

"We've been swindled out of six or seven hundred million yuan. As the team leader, isn't it a bit unfair of you to just abandon us and leave?"

Upon hearing this, Chairman Jin and the others nodded in agreement.

Mr. Wang and Mr. Chen looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Looking at Ling Yun again, he fell silent.

After pondering for a moment, he smiled and nodded.

"Boss Liu, you're right. It would be a bit unfair of me to just quit and leave now!"

As he spoke, he straightened his back, and his eyes became firm.

"It's only natural that you want to recoup your huge losses. Perhaps we could cooperate."

"I have a way to cover this huge loss and even make a fortune. I can resign then!"

Hearing his words, the people opposite him were all surprised.

Mr. Jin, who suffered the most losses, was the most impatient.

"That sounds interesting. Tell me, what are your plans to do to recoup your huge losses of six or seven hundred million in a short period of time?"

"If your approach works, cooperation is certainly not a problem; we can continue to invest!"

Ling Yun looked at the other person and confidently stated the solution.

"The only way to recover losses of six or seven hundred million, or even a billion, in the shortest possible time is to continue gambling in the international futures market!"

"I need at least 100 million in funds, and ideally, this money should be operating off-balance-sheet, not subject to the company's risk control policies."

"Then I can help you earn back all your losses in about a month!"

He paused for a moment, then added:

"But I have a condition: I want 20% of the profits invested, and it must be confirmed in a contract, in black and white."

"The profits from this investment will be divided into two parts. I will take 82%, and the remaining 18% will be distributed among Zhou Hua and the other two..."

Next, Lingyun briefly introduced his operational approach.

In short, it's about high-leverage speculation in international crude oil futures.

As a reborn individual with foresight, he was 100% certain that he could quickly recoup all his losses from the international crude oil futures market!

With the future in his hands, he was naturally full of confidence.

But when President Chen and Chairman Jin heard this, they felt a chill run down their spines.

This kind of game is too risky for them, but it's incredibly tempting.

If successful, the profits will be astonishing!

After Lingyun finished explaining the operational strategy, Chairman Jin immediately followed up with a question:

"Your idea is bold, but also risky. What if you misjudge the situation? Wouldn't we have to lose money again?"

Ling Yun smiled confidently.

"Dear bosses, whether you believe it or not, I am very confident in my judgment and actions!"

"Mr. Chen is right here. You can consult him and see how my investment performance has been over the past two months!"

"As long as my investment strategy is followed, I have never lost during this period, including this time when I was framed by Fang Changhai and Guo Zirong!"

As soon as he finished speaking, General Manager Chen immediately chimed in to support him.

"Lingyun is right. We reviewed all his investment strategies over the past two months, and indeed, not a single one was unsuccessful!"

"If they hadn't been framed, their group would definitely have made a lot of money. Who knew this mess would happen?"

Following that, Mr. Wang also explained the situation.

Through these days of investigation and deliberation, everyone in the know was amazed by Lingyun's investment performance and accurate judgment.

After listening to their introduction, Chairman Jin and his colleagues were immediately interested.

Ling Yun's abilities have been proven and there are no problems. Although his proposed investment plan is risky, it is incredibly tempting and worth a try!

Twenty minutes later, the conference room door opened.

Ling Yun stood alone inside the door, and Chong Jindong and the others said:

"Bosses, please take your time to consider this. We hope you can make a decision as soon as possible."

"Opportunities in the financial market never wait for anyone; once they're missed, they're gone, and I won't wait forever."

"If you haven't made a decision by the end of the internal investigation, I will resign and return to Beijing!"

After saying that, he waved his hand lightly, turned around and left the conference room.

After closing the door, Boss Liu muttered a complaint in an annoyed tone.

"This kid's pretty arrogant, or is he just young and naive, a bit too confident?"

"Hahaha, he certainly has the confidence to be arrogant. In just these two months, looking at the return on investment alone, no one in the entire group has performed better than him!"

Mr. Chen smiled and agreed.

As he spoke, he opened the folder in front of him, took out several thick documents, and handed them to Chairman Jin and the others.

"This is a summary of some of Lingyun's investment strategies and returns over the past two months. You bosses can take a look!"

"Once you've seen all this information, you'll understand why this kid is so arrogant!"

Chairman Jin and his colleagues exchanged a glance, then took the documents and began to examine them.

A moment later, they exclaimed in surprise.

"A 60% monthly return on investment, with a win rate exceeding 90%—this kid's amazing!"

"No wonder this kid's so arrogant; he definitely has the guts to back it up!"

After leaving the meeting room, Ling Yun went straight back to her workstation.

Upon seeing him return, Zhou Hua and the others immediately gathered around and began to inquire about the situation in hushed tones.

"What does Mr. Chen want with you? Is he cooperating with an investigation? Why is this trivial matter dragging on and on!"

"I think I just saw Chairman Jin and his group. They got screwed over this time. Are they here to confront me?"

Ling Yun glanced at the group of guys and gently shook his head.

"Don't worry, this is a good thing, not a bad thing. I can't say what it is right now."

"Perhaps in a few days, we won't have to be so idle anymore."

Zhou Hua and the others were stunned for a moment, then their faces lit up with joy.

"Great! Does this mean we'll be alright soon?"

"Damn! It's finally over. To be honest, I've been so bored lately, I'm practically growing moss. I've been on tenterhooks every day!"

Clearly, these guys misunderstood.

Ling Yun simply smiled and offered no further explanation.

It's already Saturday, 10 a.m.

In the living room.

Lingyun sprawled on the sofa, eating snacks while talking on the phone with her mother.

"Have you finished dealing with that mess at your company? If you have, quit and come back as soon as possible!"

"The capital is so big, I refuse to believe you can't find a job that suits you."

My mother complained indignantly, and also expressed some worry.

More than ten days ago, Lingyun had already told his parents about the near-fatal incident, so that they wouldn't be alarmed if they heard about it from other sources.

As expected, my parents were furious and terrified.

Therefore, her mother firmly supported Lingyun's immediate resignation and return to Beijing to work.

In this way, the whole family can stay in one city and take care of each other.

Listening to his mother's complaints, Lingyun could only smile and explain.

"Mom, please rest assured, I bear absolutely no responsibility for this. That has been made clear all along."

"Once the investigation is over and everything is settled, I'll resign and return to Beijing to spend every day with you and Dad, enjoying our company!"

Without a doubt, this is what Mom wants to hear most.

"That's more like it. At least you have some conscience. So, how are you going to handle things between you and Li Wen?"

"You two are at the age where you should be talking about marriage. We can't just keep keeping it from coming up. Why don't you bring her back with you?"

Ling Yun shook his head helplessly.

"I'd like to, but the other person has to agree. To be honest, we've already broken up!"

"Oh! You two broke up? When did that happen?"

My mother's voice suddenly rose eight octaves.

"If it's because of this incident, then she's truly despicable!"

"No, that's not it. Her family is planning to immigrate to Canada, and I can't hold them back or stop them from going to their spiritual home!"

Ling Yun explained with a smile.

"Immigrate to Canada?"

My mom's tone changed instantly.

"That's a scorer. If you dare to run off and settle abroad with him, I'll break your legs."

"Don't worry, I have absolutely no interest in immigrating overseas, I've never even considered it."

Lingyun reassured his mother, then briefly explained his breakup with Li Wen, omitting some details.

Just then, my phone vibrated a few times; a call was coming in.

Ling Yun glanced at the caller ID and saw it was a call from President Chen.

He then told his mother, hung up the phone, and then answered Mr. Chen's call.

"Is it convenient for you to talk, Lingyun?"

"Sure, I'm resting at home right now. What's up?"

"Come to the company this afternoon. Chairman Jin and the others have decided to accept your suggestion and collaborate with you again. Besides that, there's an unexpected surprise!"

Before he could finish speaking, Ling Yun jumped up from the sofa in a flash.
