00:00A four-year-old girl secretly opened her uncle's computer.
00:02Then she used the company's remaining $5 million to buy a single stock.
00:06At that moment, her uncle was distressed over the company's troubles.
00:09Not long ago, the company's vice president had betrayed him and caused enormous losses to the company.
00:14If he could not quickly make up the company's losses, he would land in prison.
00:17Fortunately, there was still $5 million in the company account for him to use.
00:21When the uncle turned around, he was nearly terrified out of his wits.
00:24Because the remaining $5 million has also disappeared,
00:26the girl announced that she had just invested all of that money into stock.
00:30Upon hearing this, both the uncle and aunt panicked.
00:32That money in the account was their lifeline.
00:34The girl's mother and grandmother still harbored a sliver of hope,
00:37thinking the girl had probably just pressed the wrong button.
00:39After all, a four-year-old doesn't understand stock trading,
00:42but the girl told him she did it on purpose.
00:44The uncle hurriedly checked the company account
00:46and discovered the girl had indeed bought $5 million worth of stock.
00:50And it was crude oil futures upon hearing this, the secretary was burning with anxiety.
00:53Because crude oil futures are extremely volatile,
00:56and randomly investing is almost like giving the money away.
00:58The uncle was instantly terrified.
01:00Based on the market situation, he was already effectively bankrupt.
01:03The aunt lost control, saying the girl and her mother were both bad luck charms.
01:07If they had not come to rely on the uncle, the company would never have gone bankrupt.
01:11The girl's mother felt deeply guilty and promised she would return the $5 million no matter what.
01:15The uncle exclaimed again,
01:16and because the stock the girl bought was leveraged 100 times,
01:19the grandmother didn't understand what leverage was.
01:21The uncle explained that leverage multiplies both gains and losses.
01:25The girl had used 100 times leverage,
01:27so if it lost money, he would owe $500 million.
01:29As soon as he said this, everyone began crying out in despair,
01:32because scraping together $5 million is possible for a family.
01:35But $500 million is impossible even if they sold everything.
01:38The uncle said they must immediately sell the futures,
01:40and maybe they could recover some losses.
01:42While he spoke, the girl had already walked over to the circuit breaker
01:45and yanked down the office's power switch.
01:47The uncle, just about to sell the futures, was stunned,
01:50anxious like an ant on a hot skillet,
01:52and hurriedly begged the girl to flip the breaker back on.
01:54When time was nearly up, the girl finally pushed the breaker back on.
01:57She thought to herself that fortunately,
01:59she reacted quickly because the futures price had only just begun to surge.
02:02If the position had been sold, it would have been disastrous.
02:05After turning the computer back on,
02:06the uncle was delighted to discover
02:08that the crude oil futures price had indeed risen.
02:11Immediately, they all showed expressions of joy.
02:13The grandmother asked if they could make a huge profit if it continued.
02:16The uncle warned that the crude oil futures market is extremely unstable,
02:19and not losing money this time was already a stroke of great luck.
02:22With that, he prepared to sell the futures to fill the hole.
02:24At that moment, the girl stopped him,
02:26saying if they waited a bit longer, they could earn at least $500 million.
02:29Upon hearing this, the ant became angry,
02:32accusing the girl of trying to make their family lose money and go bankrupt,
02:35and began furiously berating the girl's mother,
02:37believing the girl had deliberately targeted their family.
02:40The mother explained that her daughter is usually quite sensible,
02:42and she had no idea what came over her today.
02:44At that moment, the secretary nearby noticed
02:46that the crude oil futures contract the girl had bought its surge in price.
02:49And such an important part, the crude oil that was the first time was $300 million.
