Tech Hammer

In the eyes of many people, Ning Wei must be peeping at the screen in front of his mobile phone or computer at this time, watching the various word-of-mouth reversals and feeling secretly happy. But in fact, the instigator had no idea about the magical turn on the Internet. He He didn’t even know that the U.S. stock market was really responsible for his Weibo, which directly caused Metaverse-related concept stocks to plummet at the opening of the market.

It's okay for large groups like Facebook, Google, Alibaba, and Penguin. After all, large companies have the foundation and performance to support them, and market sentiment can be stabilized easily. But for stocks like Soul and Roblox, which relied almost entirely on the concept of the metaverse, and whose stock prices have doubled several times this year, they are really not so lucky. The company's performance is not worthy of the current stock price. Now the story He was ruthlessly exposed again and soon entered collapse mode.

Some people have gone bankrupt, and some have made a lot of money. However, these have nothing to do with Ning Wei. At this time, he is listening to his future wife playing the piano in the office, and chatting with his future sister-in-law on his mobile phone. WeChat, dealing with one problem after another from my future sister-in-law, enjoying the leisurely time before the holiday. Ning Wei thinks that ordinary people will never experience this kind of happiness, and it is definitely more enjoyable than arguing with a bunch of people online.

Going back one hour, at ten o'clock in the evening, Ning Wei was enjoying this kind of fun.

"Brother-in-law, how do you meet my sister?"

"You may not believe it. It's too twists and turns. I'll tell you when you get admitted to Yanbei University."

"Is it you who is chasing my sister or my sister who is chasing you?"

"Haha, what did your sister tell you?"

"Don't you know who she is? She won't tell me anything. She just told me that as a child, I should stay out of adults' affairs!"

"Then do you think that with your sister's temperament, she will take the initiative to pursue others?"

"That's right, brother-in-law, do you want to know the embarrassing things that happened to my sister when she was a child?"

"You can have this!"

"Haha, you are thinking too much. My sister has never had any embarrassing incidents since she was a child!"

…

As an only child, Ning Wei has always fantasized about having a younger brother or younger sister. The former can be bullied by him, and the latter can be bullied by her. Of course, it is best to be a cute sister, so that even if you are bullied, you will feel comfortable.

Who would have thought that the feeling that I could not experience when I was a child would be experienced today. What can I say? I felt so happy when I saw a brother-in-law shouting across the street. After thinking about it, Ning Wei was so angry that he transferred 10,000 yuan directly to WeChat. Also specifically indicate "correction fee".

The other person replied directly with "?".

"There's a fee for correcting your statement. You've already called me brother-in-law. I have to show some respect. Just keep it." Ning Wei happily sent a message.

"No, brother-in-law, I will be scolded to death by my mother and sister if I accept this money. If you really want to pay me for changing my mouth, can you give me a tablet? It doesn't need to be expensive. I'll use it." Let’s watch the video of the teacher’s lecture.”

The other person replied quickly, and then directly refunded the correction fee given by Ning Wei.

Ning Wei immediately asked: "Can you bring tablets to your school?"

"Yes, but the teacher will check that there cannot be any software related to learning and cannot be connected to the Internet. However, the lecture videos downloaded in advance can be watched in the self-study class! The teacher sometimes encourages us to find some video materials of lectures by famous teachers. Woolen cloth."

"That's no problem. Just give me an address and I'll make sure you can get a tablet filled with high school knowledge point system review materials before the holiday."

"Thank you, brother-in-law. Brother-in-law, you are so nice!"

Ning Wei was chatting enthusiastically with Jiang Chenlu when a phone call came in. He wanted to hang up directly, but he saw Director Tian's name. How should I put it, it seems that the instructor’s face must still be given.

However, Ning Wei was not in a hurry to answer the call. Instead, he responded to WeChat and replied: "My call came in, we will chat later."

"Haha, brother-in-law, you are busy. It's time for me to do the papers. After finishing the papers, I will have a rest."

"OK, remember to send me the address later."

After saying that, Ning Wei reluctantly answered the phone: "Hello, Director Tian."

As soon as the sound came out, Jiang Chenshuang, who was playing the piano, also stopped playing, and the sound of the piano stopped suddenly.

Ning Wei took the phone and looked up at the beauty next to the piano. Before he could give a smile, the voice from the other side came over: "Ning Wei, who has offended you? You are hot every day." Are you addicted to searching? Ever since you became my student, my phone has been bombarded with calls every few days. You are really giving me a hard time!"

Seeing what he said, Ning Wei couldn't tell for a moment whether he was praising him or dismissing him. He couldn't help but hesitate a little and replied: "Director Tian, ​​didn't I just post a Weibo? Isn't that right? And I’m just talking about my personal opinion, I really don’t think the concept of the metaverse is very reliable.”

"The concept of the metaverse has been proposed a long time ago. Why didn't you talk about it before you thought it was unreliable? Why did you suddenly post a Weibo post at this time?"

"I didn't know anything about it before. I only learned about this concept when Mr. Yan from Huawei called me today and mentioned this matter to me. In fact, it really has nothing to do with me, but Mr. Yan told me about a scientist from Google. It scares me to say that my theory can be used to guide the Yuanverse network communication protocol. My theory was not originally designed to do this," Ning Wei explained.

These words made the other party speechless. After a while, he said dullly: "So you don't have any other ideas. You don't buy or sell stocks or anything, right?"

"Buying and selling stocks? How can I buy and sell stocks when I don't even have a stock account? And what does my Weibo post have to do with the stock market?" Ning Wei asked innocently.

"It doesn't matter? You didn't go online after posting on Weibo today?" Tian Yanzhen asked in an incredible tone.

"No! After posting on Weibo, Senior Brother Lu came to me to discuss the topic. We discussed it until dinner in the evening, and then Student Jiang came to bring me food. She had to make up for her previous classes in the evening, so I sent her there again, and then returned I went home to rest for a while, and I just came to the office again in the evening, and you called. Oh, by the way, my mother called and said that many people in the comment section were scolding me, so I closed the Weibo comment section. Then I stopped going online. Wait, are those people on the Internet so boring? Are they harassing you even if I don’t respond? Then I’ll go online quickly and argue with them. Don’t worry, Mr. Tian, ​​I’ll do the work for everyone!” Ning Said indignantly.

"Don't... don't argue with people on the Internet! I'm afraid of you. The Wall Street Journal just quoted your Weibo. What followed was that today the stocks of the entire Metaverse concept sector in the U.S. stock market plummeted, and their current market value It has fallen by about 200 billion US dollars, and judging from the trend, it is said that it will continue to fall. It is said that the share prices of several leading stocks are likely to be cut in half, and may even trigger a chain reaction in the global market! Don’t ask me how I know, I don’t trade in stocks. Someone just called me to inform me! Ning Wei, I really don’t want to nag you, but you really make it difficult for many people. "

"Do you know that now a group of people on the Internet have begun to use you as a benchmark? A group of netizens are making noises, saying that China's top young people can't post Weibo to shake the financial market, which is unqualified. This puts a lot of pressure on a group of young people who received subsidies from the Top Youth Project at the same time as you this year. A few outstanding young scholars who were so desperate that they even opened Weibo were targeted, and a group of people were there urging them to post. Where is the Weibo for reporting on the progress of the project? Tell me what kind of nonsense this is."

"If the heat on your matter doesn't dissipate quickly, I estimate that this year's evaluation of top youth projects, outstanding youth projects, leading planning talents, etc., and the passing standards after review and completion will most likely be improved. Congratulations, with your own efforts You have raised the evaluation standards for the entire China Ten Thousand Thousand People Plan. Do you think my face is not glorious? I am proud of it too! I am a long time old, and you have made me experience the overlapping emotions of happiness and worry. But the pressure is really too much, so Ning Wei, if you can’t help but post something on Weibo in the future, can you discuss it with the organization first? As a teacher, I’m begging you.”

After hearing these words, Ning Wei was really stunned.

In fact, he is very confident in himself, which is why he doesn't bother to pay attention to the abuse on the Internet. Who is a truly confident person who would pay attention to the abuse on the Internet? But is it a bit exaggerated that his Weibo post directly caused such a big turmoil in the US stock market?

Are financial markets so fragile? Can’t compare to one of his Weibo posts? A bunch of financial geniuses never thought about what would happen if their blueprint was exposed? No plans made in advance to maintain the market?

Yes, Ning Wei didn’t expect the suddenness of his Weibo post. He didn’t give anyone time to prepare. He also didn’t take into account that he also had more than 1 million fans on the Weibo public platform and was still there in September. He had an affair with a princess from a certain Nordic country, which was not considered a scandal, not to mention the sensitivity of the entire market to black swan events like this after the stock price of the entire Yuanverse sector has been continuously raised for a year.

But he thought of another very important question: "What, Director Tian, ​​my Weibo directly caused the U.S. stock market to plummet? Didn't that cause many people to lose money? Is it best for me not to go abroad from now on?"

This erroneous answer obviously made Tian Yanzhen a little dizzy.

"Now you know you're afraid?"

"It's not that I'm afraid when I arrive, I just ask. If you can't go out, it's fine to stay in the country."

"This... going abroad shouldn't be a big problem. After all, most of what you are doing is theoretical research, and your Weibo does not involve any interests. However, for the sake of safety in the near future, it is best to keep a low profile. There will be an event in November. A relatively important mathematics conference is being held in Europe. I originally wanted you to go with Lu Dongyi, but it seems that I have to forget it now. Just do research in the yard and help your senior brother Lu teach. In addition, I just said Did you hear what I told you?"

Tian Yanzhen said angrily.

"Don't worry, Director Tian, ​​I will discuss it with you before I post on Weibo." Ning Wei assured.

"You don't need to discuss every post with me. Think about it for yourself. If the Weibo content involves some relatively sensitive theories and technologies, or the Weibo may have a great impact, you should tell me in advance, so that I can have some peace of mind. Get ready." Tian Yanzhen said after thinking for a moment.

"No problem. In fact, I don't post much on Weibo. I seem to have only posted on Weibo three times so far." Ning Wei said immediately.

After Ning Wei finished speaking, the other person was obviously startled again, and then replied: "Forget it, I didn't say what I just said. You seem to have only posted on Weibo three times, but every time you post on Weibo, you get trending searches. You should notify me first whenever you post on Weibo. In the past, you still made such a big fuss when you had only a few followers. Just now I checked that your number of followers has exceeded 10 million. If you post on Weibo again, I will I’m really afraid of something happening.”

This is hard to say again.

"Okay, Director Tian, ​​I will definitely pay attention."

"Also, work hard on your project. Countless people are watching your top-notch project this time. No one can find any faults, you know?"

"Don't worry, Director Tian!"

"Okay, so be it, I'm done!"

…

After hanging up Tian Yanzhen's phone, Ning Wei looked up and saw the girl's worried eyes. He couldn't help but smile and said: "It's okay. Director Tian just informed me of a good thing. Didn't my mother also say it before? There are many people on the Internet. They scolded me publicly, but now they stop scolding me."

"Ah? Good thing? Then why did you just tell Director Tian that Weibo caused the stock price to plummet? What did you mean by whether you were afraid or not? What did you mean by not being able to go abroad in the near future?" Jiang Chenshuang asked slightly worriedly.

Ning Wei thought for a while and replied uncertainly: "Well, it's because the people scolding me are probably a different group of people now, right? But it doesn't matter, those people are all abroad, they will scold me like a flower." , and it cannot be spread to the country."

"what is going on?"

"Actually, it's nothing. I told you, didn't I just post some thoughts on Weibo? But Director Tian just said that my Weibo was put on the homepage of the website by the Wall Street Journal, and then the stocks related to the US stock market were The whole group was shocked, and it seemed like a joke. Then Director Tian praised me severely, saying that I had brought glory to Yanbei University and made more people start to care about the progress of basic theoretical research and pay more attention to scientific research. By the way, Director Tian also said that he wants to reward me. If there is a relatively large bonus in the card I give you, don’t be surprised, it will definitely be a reward for my Weibo posts. "

As he said that, Ning Wei quickly logged into his Weibo with his mobile phone. After all, what Tian Yanzhen said made him curious.

Later, he was also frightened by the enthusiastic netizens.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, there were only over one million followers. Director Tian just said there were over ten million followers, but now he saw that the number of fans had just exceeded the twenty million mark...

In just a few hours, the number of fans has increased by more than ten times? By the way, will Weibo officials suspect that he is being a fan?

"Really? Are there rewards for posting on Weibo?"

"Of course it's true. Look, I have more than 20 million followers on Weibo, which is four times more than the number of followers on Yanbei University's official Weibo account. If I don't give any rewards, will the school leaders have a good conscience?" Ning Weiyang said. He raised his phone and said seriously.
