Sha Zhu's Rebirth in the Courtyard: Starting with Hitting Someone in the Head

Chapter 426 The Godhood of March, the Ultimate Global Bottom Line

Even after the harsh winter of 08, the entire Western financial market remained shrouded in an atmosphere of boundless pessimism.

After the collapse of Lehman Brothers last year, the $700 billion bailout, and several consecutive crashes, the confidence of overseas capital has been shattered.

From January to the beginning of March 2009, the stock markets in Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea did not see any significant rebound, and no one knew that this was the last wave of selling.

There is no hope in the market; negative news is everywhere.

A wave of corporate layoffs has swept across Europe and the United States, with countless factories shutting down or reducing production, and revenues across all industries plummeting. Financial institutions continue to experience defaults, and funds and investment institutions of all sizes are hesitant to enter the market.

Ordinary stock investors and small and medium-sized investors have long been numb to the losses, while large institutional investors are also feeling insecure.

Online opinion is overwhelmingly bearish, major investment banks have successively lowered their valuations in their research reports, and many economists have publicly stated that the financial crisis is just the beginning, and that an even more terrifying economic depression is yet to come, which may even repeat the market collapse of a century ago.

The entire overseas capital market has fallen to a point where no one dares to be bullish or say that it has bottomed out.

Hong Kong, Zhonghuan Financial Trading Room.

The three brothers, He Xiao, He Chen, and He Xin, held their initial positions in A-shares and Hong Kong stocks, which they had established at the end of last year. With the domestic stimulus package of four trillion yuan gradually stabilizing, the market remained stable and steadily rising, completely unaffected by the overseas market crash.

The three brothers kept a close eye on overseas market trends every day, watching round after round of sharp declines, and their feelings were completely different from before.

They learned that a sharp drop does not mean the bottom has been reached, and cheap prices do not necessarily mean opportunities.

The more widespread the lamentations and bearish sentiment online during the final stages of a sell-off, the more you need to remain calm and wait for that one precise turning point.

In January and February, overseas stock markets continued to decline and bottom out, hitting new lows every day. Occasionally, there would be a slight rebound, but the next day would inevitably see another sharp drop.

Many institutions that survived last year and weathered countless crashes collapsed just before the market turned bullish.

More often than not, investors couldn't sustain long-term losses or withstand market despair, and in the final wave of selling, they painfully cut their losses, liquidated their positions, and left the market.

Pessimism has reached its peak in the entire overseas financial community.

Just when the whole world was plunged into despair and dared not look up, He Yuzhu, far away in a courtyard house in Beijing, had a clear understanding of the situation.

He has a complete historical record in his mind and clearly remembers that March 9, 2009, was the ultimate bottom for the stock markets in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea in a century.

This is the final blow of this century's financial crisis, and also an absolute low point that will not be encountered again for the next ten years or so.

He Yuzhu picked up the encrypted phone and proactively dialed Hong Kong.

When the call connected, He Yuzhu's calm voice came through, without any unnecessary words, only a decisive instruction.

"The time has come."

"The final bottom for all major markets, including the US, Europe, Japan, and South Korea, is just around the corner in the next few days."

"From now on, we will open up access, allowing for tiered, phased, and covert entry. We will acquire all high-quality core assets from overseas; we cannot let any slip by."

With just a few simple words, the final battle of the global strategy that had spanned more than two years was decided.

On the other end of the phone, the three brothers were immediately invigorated.

After more than two years of waiting, the final moment has finally arrived.

He Xiao solemnly replied, "Understood, we will carry it out immediately."

After hanging up the phone, the Hong Kong trading room instantly went into high alert.

All traders were in place, and the pre-prepared list of high-quality global assets was laid out.

Over the past two years, they have thoroughly investigated the financial reports, valuations, industry positions, and risk resistance capabilities of major overseas leading companies, detailing the list down to each individual stock and each reasonable investment range, just waiting for the boss's order.

The three brothers had a clear division of labor, and each performed their duties.

The leader, He Xiao, oversees the overall situation, controlling the total amount of funds, the pace of position building, and the bottom line of risk control, ensuring that hundreds of billions of yuan are smoothly implemented without impacting the market and leaving as few abnormal transaction traces as possible.

The second son, He Chen, focuses on leading companies in overseas real economy industries, specifically targeting high-quality real economy enterprises that have been wrongly punished or dragged down by the financial crisis.

The third brother, He Xin, focuses on global technology and financial blue chips, accurately monitoring US tech giants, surviving top investment banks on Wall Street, and core leading companies in Japan and South Korea.

Everyone strictly followed the instructions, and the massive amount of funds was broken down into countless small, secret orders, which were mixed in with the last panic selling in the market, and quietly absorbed the world's cheapest core chips.

On March 9th, overseas markets completed their final wave of extreme sell-off.

US stocks, including the Dow Jones and Nasdaq, as well as European indices in the UK, France, and Germany, and Japanese and South Korean stock markets, all plummeted to historic lows.

The market was in utter despair, with selling pressure exhausted. Those who wanted to cut their losses had done so, and those who wanted to leave the market had all done so. The market's bearish forces were completely depleted.

On this very day, Hejia Capital began accumulating shares at the lowest possible cost.

The entrance process was not spectacular.

While everyone else in the world was scrambling to escape, the Ho family quietly acquired some of the world's most valuable assets.

After finishing their position building, the three brothers stood in front of the screen full of market data, speechless for a long time, their hearts filled with mixed feelings.

At this moment, they finally completed the grand plan that their father had been working on for more than two years.

From anticipating the crisis and implementing hedging strategies in advance at the end of 06 to avoiding all early risks, to accurately differentiating the rhythms of the Chinese and foreign markets in 08, avoiding the series of traps in the US stock market, and buying at the bottom of the century-old double bottom in mainland China.

Then, after enduring the entire harsh winter and resisting countless temptations, we waited patiently for the ultimate bottom in March of this year.

Top institutions and experts worldwide are all caught up in local market trends, repeatedly making mistakes and incurring continuous losses.

Only the father stands at the highest level, overlooking the global market.

Able to distinguish the traps in the US stock market, understand the opportunities in mainland China, accurately predict the ultimate turning point, and endure the long winter.

His plan was meticulously structured, divided into internal and external aspects, phases, and rhythms, with no missteps or disruptions.

He Chen stared at the historical low point that had just been captured on the screen, his heart filled with shock and admiration.

"I used to think that financial games were all about capital, skills, and information. Now I realize that the real game is about vision and patience."

"There are so many smart people in the world, but no one could have grasped every single moment of the past two years so precisely. They avoided all risks and seized all opportunities."

He Xin nodded slightly, deeply moved. "Over two years, there have been countless temptations, market illusions, and opportunities to follow the crowd. If we had succumbed to impulsive actions even once, we would have either been trapped or missed out on gains, and we would never have been able to secure today's perfect base position."

He Xiao gazed calmly at the bustling Hong Kong night view outside the window and slowly spoke. "Dad never competes with anyone for short-term profits or seeks momentary glory."

"When others are going crazy, he tells us to stay calm and observe. When others are in despair, he tells us to act decisively. Going against human nature, against the overall situation, and against the general trend—that's true mastery."

More than two years of turmoil and upheaval have seen countless capitals rise and fall.

Countless Wall Street giants have fallen, most global institutions have been decimated, and countless billionaires have fallen from grace.

The Ho family, however, has always been steady and pragmatic, avoiding all risks and reaping all the benefits.
