Lu Shengjie's statement was clearly a clever ploy.
Fengji Interactive Entertainment is now ranked fourth in the national entertainment company rankings.
Moreover, his family just gave him funds to acquire Fengji Interactive Entertainment, and there will definitely be follow-up actions to take Fengji Interactive Entertainment to the next level.
Therefore, Lu Shengjie already has the title of third place on the national entertainment company ranking list in his pocket.
He will definitely take third place, within a year at most and half a year at least.
If the betting agreement with Ye Chen stipulates who gets to the top first, then it's really hard to say.
Lu Shengjie has a 99% chance of finishing third, but less than a 0.1% chance of finishing first.
Therefore, it's better to bet on third place than first.
He's guaranteed to win!
This way, he can get the stakes in the bet sooner.
After Lu Shengjie finished speaking, the scene erupted in chaos after a deathly silence.
"third?!"
"Wow, he's really young. He just acquired the company and he's already thinking about taking the third place in the national entertainment company rankings."
The third and fourth places are only one place apart, but their strengths are vastly different.
The top three positions were something that all the bigwigs in the entertainment industry present dreamed of, but were unattainable.
The top three entertainment companies in the country and their companies are like two completely different worlds.
Take this entertainment summit for example. Other companies, including Fengji Interactive Entertainment, which ranked fourth, all had their chairmen attend in person.
However, the top three entertainment companies in the country only sent a few senior executives.
The owners of these three companies were not on the same level as them, so they were unwilling to come at all.
If Ye Chen had just said he wanted Lu Shengjie to be ranked fourth on the national entertainment company list, they would have been shocked.
They were horrified when they heard the contents of Lu Shengjie's betting agreement.
All eyes turned to Ye Chen once again.
They were curious about what Ye Chen would choose.
What's the stake?
Ye Chen asked calmly.
"The stakes... 30% of each of our companies."
After stroking his chin and thinking for a moment, Lu Shengjie finally spoke:
"Don't say that Fengji Entertainment is bullying you. My 30% stake in Fengji Entertainment is worth about 24 billion, while your 30% stake in Shenghai Entertainment is only worth about 15 to 16 billion."
Lu Shengjie appeared magnanimous and understanding towards Ye Chen.
Fengji Interactive Entertainment's market value is estimated at around 80 billion, while Shenghai Entertainment's market value is only a little over 50 billion.
Lu Shengjie knew that he had already won this time.
But he wanted both profit and fame.
In the entertainment industry, reputation is even more important than profit.
With a good reputation, why worry about not having benefits later?
After this betting agreement ends, he will reap both fame and fortune!
"Can."
Ye Chen naturally had no objections.
Although Sheng Hai Entertainment's current strength is nearly half that of Feng Ji Interactive Entertainment.
But that was before, before Ye Chen acquired Sheng Hai Entertainment Company.
So far, Ye Chen has only acquired Sheng Hai Entertainment Group a few months ago.
Moreover, Ye Chen did not pay special attention to cultivating talent at Sheng Hai Entertainment Company.
Ye Chen went from being an ordinary student with nothing to becoming a billionaire with the help of games.
It only took a short semester, about half a year.
Afterwards, as the game progresses, Ye Chen's status and position will rise even faster.
From now on, he only needs to focus on the development of Sheng Hai Entertainment.
It shouldn't take more than six months, probably around three months, for Sheng Hai Entertainment to climb to third place on the national entertainment company rankings without any problem.
Moreover, Ye Chen was also seeking a challenge.
The challenge he just accepted is to increase the reputation and influence of Sheng Hai Entertainment Company.
With this betting agreement in place, the challenge can be considered successfully completed.
"Okay, let's sign now."
Seeing Ye Chen agree, Lu Shengjie smiled broadly and immediately ordered his men to draft the betting agreement.
During the drafting of the document, many big names in the entertainment industry discussed it extensively.
They had never encountered a betting agreement with stakes of one or two hundred billion before.
If word gets out about what happened today, it will absolutely shake the entire entertainment industry!
"This Mr. Ye has real guts."
"Indeed, Boss Lu has great ambitions, but this Boss Ye is no ordinary person either."
"Perhaps President Ye really has a chance of winning?"
Although everyone present greatly admired Ye Chen's courage, very few people truly believed that Ye Chen could win.
At the scene, only a few people were impressed by Ye Chen's courage and believed in him.
A few minutes later, the betting agreement was printed out.
Ye Chen and Lu Shengjie each signed one of the two betting agreements, keeping a copy for themselves.
The betting agreement is effective from this moment until one party wins.
“Very good, thank you Mr. Ye for the shares.”
After signing the document, Lu Shengjie's smile became even brighter.
Ye Chen is such a "good person." Knowing that he needs fame and money, he took the initiative to bring them to him.
"Mr. Ye is so generous."
Xu Le chimed in with a sarcastic tone.
After saying that, Lu Shengjie and Xu Le smiled and went to the other side to greet the people they knew.
Ye Chen also left and went to the restroom.
Just after Ye Chen signed the betting agreement, he heard his phone vibrate, as if a message had arrived.
