Benny immediately became attentive while the professor also adjusted his glasses.

"I’ve spent the past week reviewing their reports and my conclusion remains unchanged. I am not optimistic."

The chat immediately became lively.

Professor Han continued.

"Management has repeatedly failed to meet previously announced targets meanwhile, competition continues intensifying."

The professor pointed toward several figures on the chart.

"Under these circumstances, I believe the risks significantly outweigh the potential rewards.

If any of you currently hold positions in Titan Manufacturing, I would strongly encourage you to reconsider your investment thesis."

The chat exploded again.

Some agreed, some disagreed and some argued.

Professor Han calmly continued.

"Investing should not be about hope. It should be about probability. If the facts change, investors must be willing to adjust their decisions."

He switched to another chart.

"Personally, if I were choosing between Titan Manufacturing and Horizon Technology..."

The next slide appeared.

"...I would choose Horizon Technology."

Professor Han continued explaining.

"They have a greater growth potential and in my opinion, it is simply the superior investment opportunity."

The viewers nodded along in chat.

Many began discussing buying Horizon shares.

Others announced they would sell Titan tomorrow.

Professor Han smiled.

"Of course, everyone should conduct their own research. I’m merely sharing my personal analysis."

Benny stared at the screen and then looked at Titan Manufacturing.

A company on the brink of collapse.

Wasn’t this exactly what he had been looking for?

An investment that practically guaranteed a loss.

Benny could feel excitement building in his chest.

He had to admit it.

This Professor Han really was the real deal.

Looking at the charts and listening to the analysis, even someone with his limited investment knowledge could tell that Titan Manufacturing was in trouble.

The stock price was trending downward.

No matter how he looked at it, the company appeared to be heading downhill.

This is it!

Benny nearly slapped the table.

A surefire way to make a profit!

Of course, the "profit" he was referring to wasn’t the company’s profit.

It was his personal profit from the system.

His first business cycle had been a complete fluke.

Back then, he had spent more than seventy percent of the company’s funds purchasing assets and furnishing the office.

He had fully expected those expenses to be counted.

Yet in the end, the system hadn’t counted those assets the way he expected and so he managed to lose enough money to receive more than fifty-six million yuan in personal compensation.

Looking back, Benny couldn’t help feeling that he had been incredibly lucky.

But this time was different.

This time, he had found a genuine loss-making opportunity.

A company that even professional investors were avoiding, a company that analysts openly warned people against.

A company that seemed destined to decline.

As Benny stared at Titan Manufacturing’s chart, the corners of his mouth slowly rose.

Professor Han...

You are an angel send down from the heavens to guide me.

On the screen, Professor Han continued speaking confidently.

"...To be perfectly honest, I don’t understand why some investors are still holding Titan Manufacturing."

He shook his head.

"The warning signs have been visible for months, at some point, investors need to stop hoping and start looking at reality."

The livestream chat immediately erupted.

"Professor Han is right!"

"I sold last week."

"Titan holders are coping."

"This company is finished."

"Professor Han called the last downturn correctly too."

Benny watched the livestream with a broad smile.

The more he listened, the more confident he became in Titan Manufacturings future.

Everything pointed in the same direction.

Still, Benny wanted to be very thorough.

No matter how small the possibility was, even if there was only a 0.001% chance that the company might somehow turn things around, he needed to know.

With that thought in mind, he opened the chat box and typed a question.

"Are you really sure this company will fail?"

He pressed send.

The message vanished into the flood of comments.

And a second passed and nothing

Professor Han continued talking despite him waiting for minutes.

His question had completely disappeared beneath thousands of comments.

Benny frowned and then he noticed something.

Every question Professor Han answered had a colored banner.

And beside every banner was a donation amount.

Benny clicked his tongue.

"Tsk."

So that’s how it worked, without hesitation, he pressed the donation button.

2000¥

Then he typed again.

"Are you really sure this company will fall?"

The moment the donation went through, a golden banner appeared across the screen.

The chat instantly noticed.

"Holy crap, 2000?!"

"Rich guy spotted."

"Boss!"

"Answer him, Professor!"

Even Professor Han paused.

His eyes landed on the highlighted message.

Then he smiled, "Am I sure Titan Manufacturing will fail?"

The chat immediately became quiet.

Professor Han leaned back.

"I’ll put it this way. If Titan succeeds, I’ll be genuinely surprised."

The viewers exploded.

"Damn."

"That’s confidence."

"Professor Han isn’t holding back."

"Any Titan manufacturing company people here?"

"They’re probably crying after being exposed."

The professor continued.

"Let’s examine the facts."

He raised a finger. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"First. The company’s debt burden continues increasing.

Debt by itself isn’t a problem.

The problem is whether the company can generate enough cash to support it."

He raised a second finger.

"Second. Their competitive position continues weakening.

Their products are becoming less attractive.

Market share is slipping yet management has no convincing answer."

Third finger.

"Third. Their executives continue projecting optimism while failing to achieve their targets.

If management misses once, that’s understandable.

If they miss repeatedly, investors should pay attention."

The chat filled with agreement.

Professor Han’s voice grew even more confident.

"And finally, the market has already spoken. Institutions are selling, analysts are downgrading, lenders are cautious. Those aren’t coincidences, they’re warnings."

He looked directly into the camera.

"Could I be wrong? Of course. No analyst is right one hundred percent of the time but based on everything available today?"

He shook his head.

"I would not touch Titan Manufacturing with a ten-foot pole."

The chat exploded once more.

"Professor Han has spoken!"

"Titan is dead."

"Selling tomorrow."

"This is why I follow this channel."

Professor Han smiled.

"If someone gave me a choice between putting one million yuan into Titan Manufacturing or leaving it in cash..."

He laughed.

"I would choose cash every single time."

The audience laughed with him.

Meanwhile, Benny sat motionless in front of the screen.

His eyes remained fixed on the company name.
