(Canadian News Business Network, www.newnews.ca, February 11, 2009) — Tang Weizhen, a well-known figure in the financial world, caused a significant stir with his unprecedented real-time public trading demonstration 10 days ago. Online, opinions are divided—some defend him, while others find his actions unbelievable. Industry insiders have analyzed Tang Weizhen's investment principles from a professional perspective. Recently, following his exclusive investment sponsorship of the Chinese New Year Gala and the rental of multiple buses to travel to Ottawa on April 13, Tang Weizhen has once again become the center of attention in the Chinese community.

Some "very insightful business people" even believe that Mr. Tang’s five-day public demonstration was a huge success. First and foremost, it proved his confidence and courage, demonstrating the authenticity of Tang Weizhen’s investments with facts, which garnered significant public attention and opened channels for attracting large-scale capital.

However, the demonstration week did not achieve a 100% return, which caused unease among some existing clients. Tang Weizhen admitted that some clients lost confidence and requested withdrawals afterward. These clients represented about 10% of the total funds, meaning the withdrawal requests were more than ten times higher than normal. At the same time, some financially strong clients were attracted by this event. Recently, the clients Tang Weizhen has been negotiating with have investment amounts in the tens of millions. These clients do not worry about the safety of their funds. Clients investing tens of millions can open independent accounts first, keeping full control of their funds. The loss of some clients will not affect the company fundamentally. In fact, we now ask clients to withdraw their principal and only invest with their earnings to compound their returns. This way, there is no risk to the clients. Of course, some clients insist on not withdrawing and leaving more funds in the account to obtain higher returns, Tang Weizhen stated.

Reflecting on the less-than-ideal aspects of this demonstration, Tang Weizhen noted that the first issue was not being in the best condition. The Chinese New Year Gala and the Wealth Forum Summit consumed a great deal of energy, leaving him feeling especially fatigued. Investing requires a clear mind and maintaining an optimal state. The second issue was the immense pressure—facing clients and the media while also needing to be accountable to the public created unimaginable stress. What other investor would dare to conduct a public demonstration?

Ten days before this public demonstration, Tang Weizhen had already been performing real-time demonstrations for some clients and guests at the Wealth Summit, earning unanimous praise. He showed the journalist a stack of account statements from his investment company. On January 15 of this year, he deposited $960,000, which turned into $1.38 million on the 16th; it fell back to $980,000 on the 19th, reached $1.69 million on the 21st, $2.2 million on the 22nd, $2.9 million on the 23rd, and $3.1 million on the 26th. In just 7 or 8 trading days, the return rate was astonishing.

Tang Weizhen stated that his theory of using 1% of the principal each week to earn a 1% return has already attracted attention in both the Chinese and American financial circles and has been taken to some American universities for research. My investment theory differs from 99% of the theories currently popular in the market, mainly because it is extremely successful in risk control. Some netizens accuse me of gambling, while professionals criticize me for not analyzing charts. I indeed do not look at charts because I believe charts reflect past events; the key is to accurately predict future trends. Otherwise, no matter how well you can read charts, it won’t help.

Recently, Tang Weizhen has been reading Bruce Lee’s biography and particularly admires how Bruce Lee combined various martial arts styles to create his own. Bruce Lee’s martial arts incorporated elements of Wing Chun, Tai Chi, and also drew from Judo, Karate, and Muay Thai, focusing on practicality—much like how investment is all about making money. Those who rely solely on chart analysis, the so-called "academics," often suffer losses in the investment market.

Tang Weizhen also believes that his investment experience is somewhat similar to certain theories of Mao Zedong, such as moving from practice to theory and then back to practice. His investment theory was also summarized from practice, refined into theory, and then tested in practice, proving to be profitable. No matter what the theory is, if it makes money, it’s a good theory.
