This afternoon, Anthony suddenly approached him. Coincidentally, there was a banquet tonight, so Hou Tianhua specially invited Anthony to introduce him to the various big shots in Shanghai.
Along with Anthony, Hou Tianhua introduced him to many wealthy and influential figures in Shanghai.
When facing these wealthy and powerful figures, the once arrogant Anthony was exceptionally polite, showing no sign of superiority whatsoever.
After giving the introduction, Hou Tianhua said mysteriously:
"Wait a moment, another heavyweight is coming. I'll introduce you then."
After looking around, he noticed that Ye Chen hadn't come, so he made a point of mentioning it.
A heavyweight figure?
Hearing Hou Tianhua say this, Anthony's eyes lit up, and he became extremely expectant.
I just met a lot of wealthy people in Shanghai, but none of them could solve his problem.
At this moment, he was particularly looking forward to meeting the heavyweight figure Hou Tianhua had mentioned. Since he was such a heavyweight, resolving his troubles should be a piece of cake.
"Uncle Hou, who is this big shot you're talking about?"
"I can't hold back any longer," Anthony asked.
"He is a shareholder of our Hilton International Hotels Group."
Hou Tianhua revealed a little bit of information.
For a moment, Anthony froze.
A shareholder of Hilton International Hotels Group?
Hilton International Hotels is among the top ten hotels in the world, and its shareholder is indeed a heavyweight figure.
Anthony became even more excited.
A few minutes later, Ye Chen arrived.
Upon seeing Ye Chen, Hou Tianhua immediately led Anthony over.
"This is General Manager Ye."
Hou Tianhua winked at Anthony, implying that this was the heavyweight he had just mentioned.
However, looking at Ye Chen, Anthony couldn't be happy.
"It's you?!"
Anthony stared blankly at Ye Chen, his expression one of utter astonishment.
Ye Chen hadn't expected to meet this foreigner so soon after arriving.
"You are... a shareholder of Hilton International Hotels Group?!?"
Anthony said, his voice trembling.
When he met Ye Chen this morning, he thought Ye Chen was just the owner of a high-end shopping mall, so he was particularly cold and condescending.
Unexpectedly, Ye Chen was also a shareholder of Hilton International Hotels Group.
That's awkward.
"What's wrong? Do you know President Ye?"
Hou Tianhua asked in surprise.
"This morning, my talks with him broke down."
Anthony replied helplessly.
Upon hearing this answer, Hou Tianhua was stunned and fell into thought.
This afternoon, Anthony told himself that he had a discussion with the owner of Hang Lung Plaza, but the discussion ultimately fell apart.
"The mysterious tycoon who bought the Hang Lung Plaza that was all the rage in Shanghai a few days ago, was it you, Mr. Ye?!"
Hou Tianhua's tone of voice has changed.
Anthony, a newcomer and foreigner, didn't know this.
However, recently, this mysterious tycoon who acquired Hang Lung Plaza has attracted the attention of many bigwigs and tycoons in Shanghai.
That's one of the top-tier high-end shopping malls in Shanghai, with annual sales reaching tens of billions of yuan.
That was practically a "money tree".
The fact that this mysterious tycoon was able to acquire Hang Lung Plaza in Shanghai from Hang Lung Properties demonstrates his terrifying wealth and connections.
At that time, Hou Tianhua and some friends also joined the discussion.
I never imagined that the mysterious big shot was President Ye!
Upon hearing Hou Tianhua's words, everyone else at the banquet was stunned.
"Hello, Mr. Ye."
"Mr. Ye, I am the chairman of Fengyuan Group..."
After a few seconds of stunned silence, countless wealthy people and bosses immediately surrounded him, fawning over him and hoping to get a chance to show their faces in front of Ye Chen.
Even Hou Tianhua was no exception, while Anthony was completely ignored.
Throughout the entire dinner, Anthony was relegated to the very edge, ignored by everyone.
Although Hou Tianhua is friends with Anthony's father, he would not offend General Manager Ye, a shareholder of Hilton, for Anthony's sake.
After the banquet ended, countless guests saw Ye Chen off.
Back at the villa, Ye Chen was scrolling through Douyin (TikTok) when he stumbled upon a discussion about "future game companies".
Some people in the gaming industry say that Future Games is the biggest dark horse this year.
They consulted professionals who estimated that the investment in developing the game "Doomsday is Coming" would be between tens of millions and one hundred million.
Based on the current momentum of the game "Doomsday is Coming", the future profits are conservatively estimated to be between 300 million and 500 million.
"Such high profit margins?"
This was the first time Ye Chen had heard of it.
"The End of the World" far exceeded their previous predictions.
When Ye Chen and Mo Mengfei discussed it before, their goals weren't high. As long as "The End of the World" was well-received and they could earn tens of millions, that would be enough.
If a small game can earn tens of millions in profit, that's already quite good.
Unexpectedly, "The End of the World" brought Ye Chen several times the profit.
Although several hundred million is not much for Ye Chen now.
But the ratio between this cost and benefit is too high.
The influence and reputation of future game companies have also been greatly enhanced by the game "Doomsday".
Afterwards, the company can design more mini-games like this, and little by little, the profits will be considerable in the future.
Moreover, the success of the game "Doomsday" has had a significant impact on professionals in the gaming industry.
Someone also interviewed an ordinary employee of Future Games who wished to remain anonymous, to learn about the company's employee benefits.
After learning about the compensation package, many technical talents, and even tech gurus, in the game design industry couldn't sit still.
This treatment is much better than theirs.
When they searched online, they unexpectedly came across news that Future Games was recruiting elite technical talent.
Seeing this, these people couldn't sit still anymore.
For a period of time afterward, many technical talents came to Future Games Company to apply for jobs every day.
Future Games has gained a large number of technical personnel, as well as several top talents in the game design industry.
This was an unexpected gain that even Ye Chen hadn't anticipated; it was wonderful.
With the addition of these technical talents, the development speed of the game "Land in the Future" has also increased dramatically.
There was only one class that afternoon.
"Old Ye, wanna go to the library together?"
After class, a classmate next to Ye Chen invited him to join in.
What are you going to the library for?
Ye Chen asked in surprise.
"Final exams are coming up soon, I'm going to the library to study."
The student answered.
To avoid failing their courses, many students usually go to the quiet library to study together during the final exam period.
"Oh, I see. Then I won't go."
Ye Chen shook his head.
"Old Ye, have you finished reviewing?"
The classmate asked in surprise.
"No."
"So you still remember everything you learned before, and you've mastered it all?"
The classmate asked, puzzled.
Ye Chen nodded and answered calmly:
"That's about it, controlling the score shouldn't be a big problem."
