"Oh, Mr. Chou, Kailin is just a newcomer. Perhaps she doesn't yet understand how to seize opportunities. Speaking frankly, following the rules won't bring you substantial returns.
If you are willing to let me handle this fund for you, I guarantee that I can bring you substantial profits in a short time!" Jerry completely disregarded Kailin's feelings and aggressively promoted his abilities.
Chou Ping could almost confirm that this damn scoundrel was the one who deceived Kailin and misappropriated the money for stock trading, coming to find her at this time and persuading Chou Ping to entrust the funds to him.
Chou Ping calmly said, "I don't lack money, and I don't care about the returns. My investment is simply based on trusting Kailin. As for you, we're not acquainted, so why should I trust you?"
Jerry's face looked somewhat embarrassed, but he seemed unwilling to give up this opportunity. He forced a smile and continued, "Mr. Chou, based on the information I have, there is a Chinese stock about to be listed in the U.S. This is a huge opportunity. Are you really willing to miss out on it?"
"But I have no interest," Chou Ping said as he stood up, seemingly ready to leave.
"Hey, Mr. Chou, please wait. Can you give me some time to introduce myself properly?" Jerry squeezed out a smile.
Shrugging, Chou Ping coldly said, "No time."
Jerry's face darkened. He could feel that this Chinese man seemed to have a very unfavorable impression of him. Could it be because he disturbed their private meeting with Kailin? But even so, was it necessary to act as if he couldn't afford the money? Was he a rich second generation who didn't care about money?
"Mr. Chou, as a professional financial advisor, I believe we can make money for you!"
At this moment, Kailin felt a bit confused. The two people who seemed unfamiliar when they first met now appeared to be quarreling for no reason.
"Jerry, I don't know what you guys are talking about..."
Jerry immediately shifted his focus and said to Kailin, "It's nothing. Here's the thing. I have a great investment opportunity to share with you."
Saying that, Jerry took out a tablet from his bag, placed it on the table, and opened it to show some data, pushing it towards Kailin. "Look, this is a Chinese company with excellent development over there. Now the market valuation has exceeded a hundred billion. This company is preparing to go public on the New York Stock Exchange tomorrow."
Hearing this, Chou Ping couldn't help but sneer. Just as he suspected, this guy was the one who caused Kailin to contemplate suicide.
Kailin frowned, "Jerry, from the information you provided, the stock of this company does belong to high-quality stocks. However, the stock market is too risky. I haven't considered this type of investment for my clients at the moment."
"Oh, Kailin, you can't think like that. Risk and return are always directly proportional. In the theory of capital, there is a saying, 50% interest will make people take risks, and 100% profit can make people trample on all laws in the world."
"You see, now there is a 100%, even 200% profit opportunity right in front of us. There's no need to take the risk of trampling on laws. Why not seize it? Mr. Chou, what do you think?" Jerry continued to persuade.
With a disdainful smile, Chou Ping said, "Not much. You speak as if you're the only one who understands, and others can't see it?"
Jerry barely squeezed out a smile, "Mr. Chou, I think you might not understand financial investment well, so you question our professionalism."
"That's correct, I don't understand. But now you seem to want to use my money to invest in this stock. If it loses, will you compensate?" Chou Ping retorted without hesitation.
"Impossible. This investment is very safe. There is no 1% chance of failure. It will definitely succeed!" Jerry insisted.
"Hehe, since you are so confident that it will succeed, why don't you risk everything and invest all your assets in it? If you withdraw it recklessly, the losses will be very heavy!" Chou Ping raised five fingers, "Oh, unless you're afraid of losing more than 50%?"
Jerry was stunned at Chou Ping's words, then stiffly said, "My funds are already invested in other industries. If I pull them out hastily, the losses will be very heavy!"
Chou Ping raised an eyebrow, "Oh, that's amazing. Even if you lose 40%, with the remaining 60%, as long as you invest it here, you can still get a 20% return on the capital, right?"
Kailin was left looking back and forth between the two, confused by the sudden argument.
At this moment, Jerry realized that he couldn't refute Chou Ping's words.
Looking at Kailin, Jerry changed his target immediately and said, "Mr. Chou, since you chose Kailin to invest for you, it's obviously to help her. Just think about it. If she has a successful investment record like this, she will have more clients in the future, bringing in more money. She will perform better, and you will get more returns!"
"Oh, if... I say if the investment fails, will you suffer a loss?" Chou Ping asked calmly.
Jerry furrowed his brow, "How is that possible? We in this industry have never had such a precedent!"
Chou Ping shook his head, "Then I won't agree with your investment plan because my opinion is exactly the opposite. I think this investment is guaranteed to incur a 100% loss."
At this moment, Jerry was filled with hatred, gritting his teeth. Damn it, why did this guy show up at the company? If there was only Kailin, he was confident that he could persuade her.
But with Chou Ping present as the financier, he completely disrupted his plan.
Unable to persuade Chou Ping, Jerry said with a bit of resentment, "Mr. Chou, since you are so afraid of losses, why not just deposit your money in the bank and wait for the currency to depreciate?"
Chou Ping couldn't be bothered to argue with this shameless guy anymore. He turned to Kailin and said, "Kailin, I agree to invest the money in the stock market. If there is a loss, I will personally bear the entire loss!"
Jerry, who had been feeling uneasy, suddenly relaxed. His lips curled up slightly. This layman finally chose the most correct approach.
Kailin, however, was a bit anxious. "Chou, the stock market is risky. I don't want to see you take such a risk."
With a faint smile, Chou Ping said indifferently, "Kailin, you know how I got this 500,000. I can tell you that making money is even easier than you can imagine. Even if this 500,000 is lost, I won't feel a second of hesitation!"
