Xia Changlong had the same idea.
It's unreliable to let any member of the Xia family take over, and it's even more unacceptable for them to take over themselves. Those shareholders are just going with the flow, so it makes no difference whether they take over or not.
Xu Wenbin was out of the question; he had almost been silenced, and he had elderly parents and young children to support. The reason he was sent to be stationed in Hong Kong was because they feared he would be in constant danger under their noses.
Yang Yajing was trusted not only because he felt at ease with her, but also because, to unsuspecting people, she appeared to be an enthusiastic investor who had ventured into numerous ventures.
The Xia family's wealth is so great that any investor would want a piece of the pie. It's just a pity the stock price is too high; most people simply don't have the capital.
Yang Yajing had already made a lot of money from Xia Changlong. Even if she had already spent a lot of money elsewhere, it would still be more than enough for her to collect one percent of his wealth.
"It's only a few tens of millions! We won't lose money anyway," Xia Changlong said sarcastically.
"Tens of millions? That's all the liquid capital I have. Are you telling me to take the narrow path?" Yang Yajing knew that experienced investors would never let their liquid capital fall below 10%.
Because if something goes wrong, there's no way to fix it.
"It's alright. If you need it for personal reasons, just borrow it from my wife. I'll let her know."
"That would be for the best! Otherwise, if I spend tens of millions to buy shares that I can't sell, wouldn't I be trapping myself?"
"Short-sighted, aren't you?" Xia Changlong pointed at Yang Yajing. "Xia's shareholders get quarterly and annual dividends of tens of millions, which can amount to millions. What's the rush?"
"Sigh! I guess I'll have to play along!" Yang Yajing threw herself onto the sofa. "Remember to give me my fair share of the profits!"
"You little money-grubber!" Xia Changlong retorted before starting to discuss the details.
Yang Yajing listened attentively, and when she heard anything inappropriate, she would offer suggestions for Xia Changlong to revise.
Three days later, Xia Changlong convened a shareholders' meeting.
At the meeting, Xia Junhu proposed investing in the Jiang family, and Xia Caixia and Xia Tengyun echoed his sentiments.
Xia Changlong stated that he did not support using Xia's headquarters funds for investment, but he did not object to their respective departments investing to earn profits.
With this investment method, Xia Changlong wouldn't get a single penny of profit, but it was perfect for the other members of the Xia family who were insatiable in their greed.
Moreover, if the investment is made by one's own department, it avoids Xia Changlong's approval for monthly audits, making it easier to manipulate the accounts.
What Xia Changlong wanted was for them to relax and not to keep careful accounts.
As for the other shareholders, some felt that it was risky for Xia Changlong not to invest, and they were unwilling to vote in favor.
Those who voted in favor were mostly greedy.
Since the number of dissenting votes was less than 65%, the plan was practically approved by default.
Xia Tengyun's face didn't show much expression, but Xia Caixia and Xia Tengyun's eyes were clearly shining, and their wallets were already bulging.
Sure enough, once the project started, Xia Changlong completely ignored everything, didn't even bother to ask questions, and simply let them do what they wanted.
The Jiang family received the investment and became very successful. They not only appeared on television news, but their stock price also hit the daily limit. How wonderful!
Zhou Pengfei didn't quite understand and asked Yang Yajing why the Jiang family hadn't encountered any trouble but had instead prospered.
Yang Yajing simply told him: When a bird whose wings haven't fully grown, the higher it flies and the harder it falls, the more ambitious it is.
It's obvious they just want the Jiang family to have some fun first, to get cocky and think that with the Xia family backing them up, they're fearless!
Given the Chiang family's character, by then, their misdeeds would no longer be so well hidden, and would be easier to uncover.
Zhou Pengfei didn't understand the ins and outs of the business world; he was just watching the spectacle. Because Yang Yajing was involved, he was very interested and hoped to get closer to her in terms of understanding.
To be honest, Zhou Pengfei sometimes felt a little inferior when facing Yang Yajing. Perhaps due to the influence of his elders, he still retained some of his chauvinistic tendencies.
He had known about Yang Yajing's abilities since childhood, admired them, and respected them greatly. But now that their status had changed and they were dating, he wanted to be able to keep pace with Yang Yajing.
The ancients said that a good match in marriage does not refer to the size of one's wealth, but rather to similarities in lifestyle, cognition, and education.
Yang Yajing will definitely become a big shot in the financial investment world in the future, so Zhou Pengfei must make a name for himself in the art world and cannot fall behind.
This idea made him restless and he began to pay attention to various competitions and opportunities to develop his abilities.
And this opportunity came quite quickly.
I remember at the awards ceremony not long ago, Zhuo Yizhu's script, with the combined brainstorming of Chen Jiaoyun and Yu Yue, was basically ready.
Song Qi has already planned to find investors to start filming, but it's more accurate to say he's investing in equipment and venues to create his CGI.
This is a 3D animated film. Nowadays, besides DreamWorks, Disney is the only other company that makes films like this!
To think you can make a good movie with nothing is just wishful thinking.
Song Qi told Zhou Pengfei about rendering the original artwork, and Zhou Pengfei agreed without hesitation.
"Zhou Pengfei, I don't have money to pay you a hiring fee, do I?" Song Qi was a little embarrassed. This movie would take two or three years to make, so this meant he was hiring free labor.
Zhou Pengfei shook his head. What he wanted now wasn't payment, but an opportunity. And Song Qi could provide that opportunity, and he believed in Song Qi's abilities.
He told Yang Yajing about it, and she wholeheartedly agreed. However, he asked Song Qi for 10% of the film's box office revenue to give to Zhou Pengfei as a service fee.
