#Circle扩大IPO规模 《Last Order》

Old Chen stared at the fluctuating numbers on the screen, his finger hovering over the keyboard for a moment. It had been twenty years; he was familiar with the emotions behind every fluctuation—greed, fear, hesitation. But today was different.

"Buy in." He pressed the confirmation key, betting all the remaining funds in his account on this stock that was on the verge of delisting.

Outside the glass window of the office, young traders were cheering for a new round of bull market. Only Old Chen knew that the company's financial report was fake, but in half an hour, news of government market intervention would bring it back to life.

Fifteen minutes passed, and the stock price fell another 5%. Old Chen reached for the antihypertensive medication in his drawer when he suddenly heard a light laugh behind him.

"Master, do you also believe in insider news?" His disciple, Xiao Zhang, waved his phone, "The announcement just came out, the chairman of that company has been taken away."

Old Chen looked at the margin call prompt and suddenly laughed. He tore up the notebook filled with trading plans and walked out of the exchange under the astonished gazes of the crowd.

The setting sun cast long shadows, resembling the last bearish candle on the K-line chart.
