Chapter 156 How can something without risk be considered a gamble?
【My love is too stupid and too naive...】
When I was sighing, the cell phone in my pocket rang. By coincidence, it happened to be "Cao Cao".
"Hey!" Meng Lang picked up the phone.
"Alang, my dad was discharged from the hospital today. The second elder asked you to come over for dinner tonight. I want to thank you very much."
"Really? That's a good thing! How is uncle recovering?"
On the day of the operation, Duan Xian sent a Fetion message saying that the operation went well. Calculating the time, he was indeed discharged from the hospital within two days.
"The doctor said that the wound is almost healed. Once the sternum heals, it will be basically nothing serious."
"That's great, okay! Then I will go over to visit my uncle tonight!"
After hanging up the phone, Meng Lang was in a good mood.
The people around him are being changed little by little from their established destiny trajectories.
Everyone takes it for granted, and no one realizes that there is such a little butterfly, which is affecting the fate of this world little by little.
There are no traces of wings in the sky, but I have flown...
With his sense of gain satisfied, Meng Lang felt more motivated.
After working for another ten minutes, the bookshelf was finally filled to the brim.
Meng Lang solemnly put the book "When Meteors Cross the Sky" into an inconspicuous corner on the bookshelf.
After looking at it for a long time, he nodded with satisfaction.
"Perfect!"
…
He sat back at his desk, turned on his computer, and started today's work as planned - making money!
I just spent 50 million US dollars on a risk-free "venture investment", and now my small treasury has shrunk significantly.
Excluding the shares held by Gao Yuan on behalf of Mengshan Dairy, the remaining liquid assets of Mengshan Dairy include approximately 9 million U.S. dollars in Bitcoin and more than 1 million soft coins in his account.
It was less than a small goal, which made Meng Lang feel very insecure.
Scientific research is too expensive, and if you don’t even have a small goal, how can you achieve your big goal?
The brothers are responsible for charging into the battle. How can he not let the brothers "run out of ammunition and food"?
Strength and strategy are the basic forces of war.
What Meng Lang has to do is to work hard to manage the present until the future is promising!
He opened the "Other Exchange" that he had registered long ago, and after some operations, deposited all the remaining Bitcoins from his wallet.
Bi'an Exchange is the world's largest virtual currency and digital asset exchange, with peak daily trading volume exceeding 10 billion US dollars.
I chose this exchange partly because of its relatively good security.
Second, the transaction volume is huge. Although the number of Bitcoins I own is not small, it is nothing compared to the daily transaction volume, and is not conspicuous among a group of predators.
For the sake of information security, Meng Lang did not choose real-name authentication. Fortunately, in 2018, the information transparency of Bian Exchange was not high and users were allowed to register without real-name.
Open the Bitcoin trading page and take out a chart printed on A4 paper.
That’s right, that’s the “Bitcoin Price Chart”!
As can be seen from this price chart, after experiencing a surge of more than 18 times in 2017, between January 2018 and January 2019, Bitcoin fell directly from US$18,000 to US$3,500.
The price directly shrank by 80%, from skyrocketing to plummeting, completing a thrilling roller coaster ride.
Meng Lang chose to liquidate these Bitcoins to avoid the plunge in Bitcoin assets this year.
He finally turned his attention to the "death candle" on April 10, 2018.
The reason why I have been waiting until today is because I am waiting for it!
Even if there are no comments here, Meng Lang can still imagine the tragedy of waking up without a car or even an apartment.
He has been observing the Bitcoin market in the past two days, and it basically matches the price chart in his hand, so he chose today as a "good day" to make a move.
Not long after the market opened, he looked at the current price, then directly chose 20 times leverage and started short selling in small amounts.
He didn't stop until he had put down most of the chips in his hand and reserved some funds to prevent forced liquidation.
The price curve is still stable, but it has dropped a few dollars. Obviously, my order has not caused much disturbance.
He sets a take-profit line and closes the position as soon as the profit reaches the target.
Facts have proven that greed beyond a small goal is the original sin!
After looking at the time, Meng Lang began to wait patiently.
I casually picked up a copy of "Blockchain Technology Applications" on the bookshelf that still smelled of ink, and started reading it casually, and also made myself a cup of tea.
Meng Lang's mentality was very calm, even though it was a huge sum of more than 50 million soft girl coins.
Sit back and watch the wind and clouds rise, and wait quietly for the clouds to roll and relax.
"Investment without soul" is doomed to my fate...
…
"Hmm...it's interesting."
Meng Lang slowly turned the pages of the book in his hand.
It's strange to say that he, a Chinese major who gets headaches when he sees numbers, can actually read such professional IT books with gusto.
"Unfortunately, the writing is a bit rough, with too little practical information and too many watery characters."
Continue reading down one line at a time.
I can understand it and comment on it with enthusiasm.
This may be the "fresh period" for a playful child who has just gotten a new toy...
Speaking of which, blockchain is actually a very interesting and disruptive Internet technology.
Human civilization has evolved from an "identity society" to a "contract society", and blockchain is expected to lead mankind to transition from a "contract society" to a "smart contract" society.
Its real value is not in the virtual currency, but in a trustworthy "information sharing mechanism" that makes information sharing more transparent and efficient!
Efficient?
Meng Lang was inexplicably caught by this word.
If the progress of science and technology and large amounts of capital investment are "power", then the efficiency of research is "skill".
Of course you can defeat cleverness with force, just spend money.
But if you can improve your "skill", you can also achieve twice the result with half the effort with the same amount of money.
The "computer nervous system model" he is currently developing is a "technique" to assist in accelerating research and development efficiency.
It’s just that this technique can only accelerate the research and development of “nervous system” related projects.
Blockchain is different. The efficiency improvement it brings is comprehensive, comprehensive, and even affects the entire society!
"Efficient information sharing..." Meng Lang touched his chin.
Technology is also a kind of information.
Today's technology has national boundaries, which greatly hinders the development efficiency of earth's science and technology. If we can create a technology sharing platform without national boundaries...
Do you think people on earth want to fly?
If advanced blockchain technology is introduced into modern times, can human technology in 2043 reach the original level of 2044 or even 2045?
In a sense, accelerating the evolution of science and technology is equivalent to delaying the end of the world in disguise, buying time for one's own rescue operations?
You must know that medical technology is also a collaborative science influenced by many disciplines such as computers, materials, physics, chemistry, etc.
Every time the earth's overall technology is accelerated by one point, the hope of cracking the madman's disease increases by one point.
I stand on the shoulders of evergreen creatures, but evergreen creatures stand on the shoulders of the entire earth...
Are you short of people and money?
Of course it’s missing!
But what I lack most is actually time!
"So what should be done specifically? Use blockchain to build a 'knowledge network'?"
"Ding! Ding! Ding!"
At this moment, Meng Lang's thoughts were interrupted by a series of transaction prompts on the computer.
As soon as he looked up, he saw the straight downward curve...
When I looked at my account, I saw that all orders had been closed, and a small target was quietly lying in the account balance.
But in just one morning, Meng Lang made a net profit of more than 50 million yuan...
"It's called a market, but it's actually a casino. This is so exciting!"
Even Meng Lang, who already regarded money as a number, couldn't help but marvel at how quickly this activity made money.
What? Do you think Meng Lang is gambling?
How can something without risk be considered a gamble?
He couldn't help but open the discussion group and took a look at the various comments that were already boiling inside.
"It's time to cut leeks!"
"We agreed that one coin would be a villa, and one coin would be a young model!"
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord! One day in the coin world is one year in the human world!"
"In the face of harvest, I am indifferent! Don't talk to me about technical analysis, I just play with coins!"
Meng Lang couldn't help but shook his head.
Quietly shut down the computer.
You study the market and think it's finance. After studying for a long time, you find out it's economics. Then you find out it's policy, so you study policy.
And you discover that it is actually history. You start to read through history, and in the end you find out...
