Chapter 214 Full Reopening, Mask Prices Plummet
Xu Liang is not a fool.
He knew very well what this meant.
With Europe and the United States easing restrictions, masks will become useless, and imports will certainly cease. Without demand from the European and American markets, mask prices will inevitably plummet, and even at reduced prices, they will remain unsold.
Play hot~
[Danger]
I just invested 400 million yuan to build a factory and stockpiled 5 tons of non-woven fabric. Won't I lose a fortune?
(??????) Pfft~
Xu Liang shivered as his hands and feet turned ice cold.
dizzy.
Almost vomited blood.
"No, it's impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Is Jiang Feng lying to me?"
"Yes, he, he's definitely lying to me!"
Xu Liang was breathing rapidly, trembling all over, unable to believe this sudden bad news, his head buzzing.
He never expected that the Western countries would actually surrender. How dare they?
This is absolutely unbelievable...
Why is this happening?
(T～T)
Xu Liang was right; the super flu cannot be eradicated, the US epidemic will worsen, and it cannot be resolved in the short term.
But to his surprise, the United States simply gave up!
Sonofabitch.
That's a real beast!
He still harbored a sliver of hope. He was convinced Jiang Feng was just jealous and trying to trick him into selling the mask factory. Yes, that's it! How could Europe and America possibly back down? That's utter nonsense!
But the old classmates in the group were willing to believe it.
Hypocritical remarks filled with schadenfreude—
[Bai Xiaofeng: Huh? This…]
[Zhou Chunhong: Holy crap!]
[Yang Xiaoman: This is absolutely outrageous! Have these Western countries where I was born stopped being human? Are you kidding me?]
[Yu Bin: Sigh~]
[Liu Lei: Brother Liang, you should quit as soon as possible!]
[Squad Leader - Sun Hui: Yes, yes, yes!]
[Wei Junjie: Liang Ge's life has been full of twists and turns~]
[Deng Ning: Those who don't listen to good advice will suffer the consequences. Brother Feng reminded him, and we've all stopped doing mask business.]
The old classmates sighed with emotion.
But inside, he was laughing heartily, feeling extremely comfortable!
Xu Liang, you've got nothing but bad luck now, haven't you?
(→_→)
Seeing him suffer misfortune finally brought everyone a sense of relief. If every classmate became rich overnight, wouldn't they all seem particularly useless? With Xu Liang at the bottom, everyone felt much more at ease.
This at least proves that not everyone is as incredibly lucky as Jiang Feng, making money on every investment and having everything go smoothly.
Xu Liang was furious, but he remained stubborn and refused to admit it.
[Xu Liang: Impossible, Fakenews, this is absolutely fake news. How many people would die if it were fully liberalized?]
He had no way out but to pray for divine intervention and, clinging to a sliver of hope, continue to operate at full capacity.
however
Market feedback doesn't lie. Although the news that Europe and the United States have fully lifted the control measures for the super flu has not yet been confirmed, import orders have suddenly plummeted, and some orders have even been cancelled or broken.
Many mask factories sensed something was wrong.
They're all reselling production lines on WeChat Moments—
[Due to investment failures and a broken cash flow, I am now selling five mask production lines at a low price. Urgent! First come, first served. Buying them is a guaranteed profit. Production can begin immediately upon signing the contract.]
[Due to health reasons...]
[Due to my divorce...]
Mask factories that were once in high demand suddenly began to be transferred on a large scale at low prices, with prices dropping again and again.
250 million
220 million
180 million
150 million
The price of non-woven fabrics has also plummeted.
14 million
12 million
10 million
In just one week, Xu Liang's stockpiled 5 tons of non-woven fabric suffered a loss of nearly half, his mask production line depreciated by one million yuan, and most importantly, he couldn't sell the masks, with prices plummeting continuously.
2.0 yuan/each
1.8 yuan/each
1.6 yuan/each
1.4 yuan/each
Xu Liang's masks were of average quality, made from poor-quality raw materials and used in small quantities, falling close to the acceptable level.
After the sharp decline in mask exports, no one wanted his goods, and his inventory piled up, but he couldn't sell them even after lowering the price.
Xu Liang is now forced to go all in.
He's going to gamble! He's betting that the rumors of the US easing restrictions are false, that mask prices will skyrocket, and that he'll become rich overnight!
He brainwashes his parents every day—
"I have inside information that Europe and the United States are unlikely to loosen controls. This is all hype by someone trying to buy up masks at low prices."
"We don't need to worry, we have no trouble selling them!"
Until the end of December
The US government has announced that a full reopening is a done deal, and some areas have even begun to lift all restrictions.
Mask prices fall below 1 yuan
The production line is even more outrageous—
Previously, even with a price tag of 250 million, you had to wait in line; now, you can choose freely for 15, and various second-hand production lines are being sold at half price.
Xu Liang's anxiety finally died!
Liang Ge's legendary story unfolded once again, causing a sensation at Rongcheng Normal University, with students expressing their "admiration" for him.
[The God of Investment - Fake]
[Industry Nemesis - Truth]
Brother Liang is just that awesome! He always manages to enter the market at the end of the trading day, buy at the top, and accurately time the market down. Who dares to disagree?
High-priced takeover of Huanda Automobile
High-priced takeover of mask factories

Xu Liang's relatives and friends were also dumbfounded. He used to brag on his WeChat Moments every day that he earned several thousand RMB a day.
Now, however, he was so frightened that he turned pale!
"Oh no! My compensation money for the demolition—"
"Old Xu, I want to withdraw my shares. I'm not investing anymore. Please return my compensation money to me immediately!"
Xu Liang's parents' phones were ringing off the hook.
Xu Liang is being EMO again.
He turned off his phone and hid in his room to smoke.
His eyes were full of confusion.
who am I?
what happened?
Why is TM acting like this?
"Damn it, why? Jiang Feng didn't even get into university, what right does he have to become rich overnight, but I can't?"
"Aaaaaaahhhhhh~" (Pain Mask)
Xu Liang's parents also became depressed. They had several perfectly good rental apartments in their own home, and they could support the whole family just by lying down.
My son [struggled] and I lost it all…
Now the demolition compensation has been lost again...
Even the belongings of relatives and friends were gone...
What should I do?
Xu Liang signed a contract stating that profits would be considered an investment, while losses would be borne by him, essentially a loan, with a full refund to be provided.
Fortunately, there was no repayment deadline!
They cleared out their mask inventory at low prices, sold equipment, and sold everything they could to recoup their funds.
The total amount of RMB 150 million was returned to the shareholders.
My family invested 50 yuan.
They still owe 200 million!
Xu Liang's parents took on these debts.
"Ah~"
"Son, just focus on your university studies!"
"Please don't cause any more trouble, okay?"
"Your parents will take care of these compensation issues. You don't need to worry about them. Just focus on your studies."
Looking at my parents' dejected and disappointed eyes.
Xu Liang felt his self-esteem had been severely damaged.
I was deeply hurt.
What do you mean I'm making a fuss?
Isn't my goal to get rich?
Failure is the mother of success!
I, Xu Liang, will succeed one day!
Even Jesus couldn't stop it.
hum~
He was angry, resentful, unwilling, and indignant. He slunk back to school, leaving the mess to his parents.
His parents are nearly fifty years old. In order to pay off their debts, they have no choice but to work on construction sites. Because they don't have any skills, factories simply won't hire older people like them, as they are too slow.
Xu Liang felt extremely embarrassed.
She secretly resented her parents for being useless.
When he was in high school, he mocked Jiang Feng for being from the countryside and having parents who worked as construction workers. Now that the boomerang had hit him, his sense of superiority had turned into shame, and of course he was upset.
