Fatal Strike: Mercenary Road of Gunfire Ranger - Chapter 739 - 688: Massive Bleeding

Translate to:

The follow-up handling of the Anchorage incident was delayed for nearly 20 days...

The Department of Homeland Security announced an investigation into Wenbo Ni Laboratory, Merck Company, and Glans Creek Group due to the virus leak issue.

An inexplicable conspiracy theory emerged in the media, suggesting that Merck Company and Glans Creek Group intended to release the Ebola virus outside Africa and profit from vaccines.

The deaths of those people in Alaska were interpreted by some media as a strategy to clear themselves of issues.

These two giant companies are certainly not flawless, but claiming they would risk releasing such a deadly virus like Ebola at the risk of global condemnation is underestimating their ability to earn money.

However, the market doesn't take reason into account; when the United States announced an investigation, the FDA announced a suspension of the Ebola vaccine's clinical trial application, and invalidated Wenbo Ni Laboratory's clinical trial data obtained in Africa.

When Homeland Security agents began entering Merck Company's headquarters and Glans Creek's U.S. operations center to conduct interviews, the stocks of both companies plummeted...

At this time, the Edward Foundation was bewildered; they had previously stockpiled a large quantity of Merck's stock and prepared a series of tactics to suppress the stock price for trading profits in the futures market.

However, before they could release the news and sell stocks to lower the price, several very discrete private equity funds on Wall Street took the lead.

This situation was not unusual; it was normal for someone to want to short sell due to the public events in Alaska.

When they realized and began short selling in the futures market, they did not notice that the original seemingly eager to see the two companies collapse private funds had switched to systematically acquiring stocks with banks behind the companies to control the speed and scale of the stock price decline.

The futures market is a zero-sum game; for someone to profit, someone else must lose money! ๐’‡๐™ง๐™š๐“ฎ๐”€๐“ฎ๐’ƒ๐™ฃ๐“ธ๐’—๐’†๐’.๐™˜๐’๐’Ž

When people at the Edward Foundation believed they held substantial evidence against the two companies amidst the unfavorable situation, and that the stock price decline was irreversible.

The next week, representatives from Merck Company and Glans Creek Group held a press conference accompanied by Homeland Security officials to announce their investigation results.

"Current evidence suggests that neither company participated in the virus leak incident, and they will launch unprecedented lawsuits against those unscrupulous media."

This was originally the Edward Foundation's script; after gaining sufficient profits from the stock price drop, they would clear the two companies through releasing key evidence via Wenbo Ni Laboratory.

Then, leveraging the recovery of those foreign personnel and Korean and Japanese experts on the medical ship treated by the vaccine, to push up the stock price and profit again.

But they independently 'exonerated themselves' without needing the evidence provided by Edward Foundation!

Although the general direction is still according to the Edward Foundation's plan, in margin-based leveraged trading, seemingly minor fluctuations continuously devoured their capital,

Despite still achieving good profits, missing the timing for the well-prepared Edward Foundation constituted a financial accident.

Moreover, they were entirely unprepared for Mountain Eagle to contact and persuade William Hurt to join in obstructing them.

The Edward Foundation was under the illusion that the Wall Street group was following the same path as them.

Upon investigating, they found the people behind Wall Street's private equity were linked to William Hurt, thereby reinforcing their belief.

Because someone like William Hurt engages in stock trading not through the market-based methods but by administrative maneuvers, insider trading, and off-the-record tactics.

The famed stock experts of Congress Hill accumulate wealth through similar methods...

Yet they could never have expected Mountain Eagle would convince William Hurt to risk attacking them in the financial market.

Therefore, when the FDA reconsidered the Ebola vaccine's clinical application due to the recovery of foreign officials on the medical ship, the Edward Foundation people began to hold the stock price firmly...

They released various rumors, using the African epidemic and officials' recovery issues to intensely hype the Ebola vaccine's efficacy, even mobilizing the governments of Angola and Sierra Leone to intervene in purchasing the Ebola vaccine...

The Edward Foundation quickly completed their build-up, then watched as the stocks of both big companies rose for three consecutive days...

The rescued foreign officials, during interviews, thanked the Homeland Security for their efforts, specifically praised the Refugee Group that risked their lives to rescue them, and finally confirmed the efficacy of the Ebola vaccine to the public.

At this point, Merck Company adopted a roadshow stance, continuously holding various seminars and press conferences to promote the Ebola vaccine.

The reactions from the media to inside the FDA were overwhelmingly positive.

While everyone expected Merck Company and Glans Creek Group to regain ground, Canada's Wenbo Ni Laboratory was shut down, their director taken away, and then the Homeland Security spokesperson disclosed a bombshell at a press conference...

"According to the evidence we have, the theft of the virus at Wenbo Ni Laboratory involved insiders, and the virus released by terrorists at the Marriott Hotel was not the Ebola virus but a variant developed in the laboratory.

This is a self-directed conspiracy aiming to swindle research funds from Merck Company and Glans Creek Group and to push immature vaccines into sales.

"We will reopen the investigation to confirm if Merck Company and Glans Creek are involved."

.........

"Hahahahaha..."

Mountain Eagle sat in the luxurious suite of the Captain Hotel, laughing heartily as he watched the images on the TV.

It's been almost a month, finally time to reap the harvest from the Edward Foundation...

As Mountain Eagle laughed, the big screen beside him showed the office in Singapore where everyone stood up cheering.

Mr. Poincarรฉ avoided the excited kiss from the trader Chris Jon, holding a cup of coffee as he walked to Blood Fox...

Then the two old men looked at Mountain Eagle across the camera, raised their drinks, and showed a pleased smile.

"How much money can we make this time?"

Mr. Poincarรฉ heard Mountain Eagle's question, turned back to glance at Chris, who was excitedly directing numerous operators to start work, he thought for a moment and said: "I am not sure of the exact figures, Chris has his own set of trading logic.

He did not use all the money in the futures market but focused his attention on the supply chains of two major companies.

Final settlement statistics will take some time, but given the current situation, as long as the stocks of these two major companies fall back to the price from half a month ago, we can profit 400 to 450 million US Dollars.

The guys on Wall Street are more aggressive and earn more, but personally, I admire Chris's operational style more."

As Mr. Poincarรฉ spoke, Blood Fox sighed and took a sip of whiskey, expressing annoyance: "I've fought wars my whole life, yet the income of the entire Arctic Fox over so many years doesn't even compare to what this office earns in a month.

The world has gone mad...

When did the Americans become so efficient in handling cases?"

Mountain Eagle laughed heartily and said: "Of course, when they want to add false charges, they're efficient. Don't be fooled by how serious that guy on TV sounds; in fact, they don't have any substantial evidence.

To put it bluntly, it's slander!"

Blood Fox couldn't believe it and said: "Isn't this too serious, yet it somehow works?"

Mountain Eagle spread his hands and said: "I don't know the specifics of the operation. The only thing I know is that apart from some deliberate clues left by the Edward Foundation at Wenbo Ni Laboratory, all other accusations are made-up.

But before Merck Company and Glans Creek Group can prove their innocence, these accusations have a significant impact on their stock prices.

When someone like William Hurt wants to slander certain people or companies, it becomes extremely difficult for them to clear their names.

However, I believe this situation won't last too long, as the two major companies also have connections in the United States Congress. They will soon find William Hurt...

If the Edward Foundation doesn't change its ways, it will lose even more this time.

With the players and referees on our side, the Edward Foundation wants to win, hm hm..."

Although Blood Fox doesn't understand financial operations, he is aware of the model of political and commercial collusion that Mountain Eagle describes.

Thinking of the situation the Edward Foundation will face, Blood Fox shook his head and said: "Although I think making money is satisfying, I have to remind you that the more you earn in such circumstances, the more your enemies lose.

They won't let this go!"

Then Blood Fox looked at Mountain Eagle across the camera and said solemnly: "I've heard some things, Mi Lu and I will take the Arctic Fox Rescue Team, and tonight we will fly to the United States, then transfer to Alaska."

Mountain Eagle paused, nodded slightly and said: "Then come, I've heard Tiffany and Lilith's work is going smoothly, it's good for them to take some hardship in Alaska."

Blood Fox looked at Mountain Eagle's relaxed expression and said solemnly: "Are you really confident?

An old friend of mine provided me with information; that Spanish arms dealer Alex Vincent has gathered many mercenaries, and the Sinaloa Group also sent people to him.

These people have been sent to Estonia for training, overseen by one of my old friends, and their training program targets the winter environment of Alaska.

Mountain Eagle, the latitude of Brown Bear Camp is close to Fairbanks, the winter there can't deter everyone..."
