Qu Yiheng’s trading moves today had been decided upon that morning in consultation with Hou Yong.
On one hand, Hou Yong intended to use this to help Hu Moru recover some losses by harvesting retail investors. On the other hand—the most critical point—was that the two stocks Qu Yiheng had purchased on the first day were showing a lack of momentum because Qu Yiheng had diverted attention away from them. Their trading volume hadn't been high, and there were even faint signs of a decline. This was not ideal; to fully cement Qu Yiheng’s persona, the core premise had to be that he was always making money. Hou Yong could not afford to let Qu Yiheng lose money on those initial two stocks.
In fact, after briefing Qu Yiheng that morning, Hou Yong had put on a mask and personally went to the exchange. When someone tried to stir up trouble in the afternoon, Hou Yong immediately guessed their intentions and promptly placed buy orders, which explained why those orders were filled at lightning speed before they even appeared on the board.
