Two more days passed in uneventful fashion.
Guo Ziyi sent an email from Hong Kong, formally agreeing to invest 6 billion in cash to acquire a 15% stake in Tengyou Media.
However, there are a series of related agreements.
Chen Pingsheng took a closer look and found that it was probably just some details of the cooperation.
It mainly involves the field of live streaming, and the Guo family established the global branch of Tengyou Media in Hong Kong.
The Hong Kong entertainment industry has completely declined in recent years. Not to mention movies, even TV dramas and variety shows are completely useless.
There is not even a sliver of the glory of the 1990s.
It is quite necessary to set up a Tengyou branch there to promote Hong Kong luxury goods.
Chen Pingsheng, along with his secretary Zhang Wanyi and Lin Qiunan, rushed to Hong Kong to sign the contract.
The six billion received is in addition to the investment in recent years.
The net income is still around 2 billion, and Chen Pingsheng uses the golden finger to randomly increase it.
The familiar golden dice kept shaking and finally stopped on number two again.
It seems like he has had bad luck recently.
Plus the random increase of the golden finger and the 6 billion capital.
He received a total of 10 billion in cash this time.
After completing the signing during the day, Chen Pingsheng went to Guo Ziyi's Baijiadao mansion in the evening to attend a private dinner hosted by him.
It's more of a party than a dinner.
Because it is summer, there are many bikini beauties here.
Each of them was wearing a bikini that only covered a little bit of their private parts.
How can a wealthy family gathering be without wine and beauties?
Women who can attend such occasions are basically very good-looking.
The quality in all aspects will not be too bad.
As the red wine is shaken, the sexy beauty performs a wet temptation.
Fortunately, Guo Ziyi invited some wealthy and powerful people, otherwise ordinary people would be shocked by this scene.
There is a high probability that you will not be able to walk.
"Mr. Chen, I think you're just too formal. Your wife isn't around, so just tell me which of these beauties you like."
Guo Ziyi is much older than him, so there's nothing wrong with calling him brother in private.
"We are all people with families, so we can't indulge ourselves too much."
"That's what I admire about you. Just look at the people living on Barker Road. They all have a business outside. One of the most outrageous ones even squandered a fortune worth tens of billions on this."
Chen Pingsheng also knew about this. The guy's father was one of the four famous shipping tycoons in Hong Kong in the 1960s and 1970s.
It’s a pity that the descendants are not as good as him. They live a carefree life for most of their lives, but only find out that they have no money when they get old.
But his life was worth it. According to his own account, he had slept with at least five thousand women in his life.
Still all beauties.
He often held beauty pageants at his home, where he served as the sole judge.
Such a life is also quite legendary.
Chen Pingsheng still controlled his desires and stayed here until nine o'clock before returning to his luxury mansion on Barker Road.
He owns three luxury homes in Hong Kong, including the Barker Road villa worth more than 2 billion yuan.
and a HK$1.2 billion villa on Mount Kellett Road.
In addition, he bought a 2,000-square-foot luxury house worth 120 million yuan for Big Butt in Victoria Harbour.
It is said to be a 2,000 square foot mansion, but in fact it is only equivalent to about 200 square meters in the mainland.
The high housing prices in Hong Kong are no joke.
A flat in a better location costs around 500,000 to 600,000 yuan.
She has never lived in Big Butt's house. When she comes to Hong Kong again when she is older, she will probably live in her own house.
This time, we got another 10 billion yuan in funding.
After Chen Pingsheng returned to his large study, he turned on his computer to check the global stock market and the current situation of various industries.
Needless to say, real estate prices in the mainland have already reached their peak.
This area no longer has any investment attributes.
As for Pinduoduo, which is about to go public, its valuation is as high as 20 billion US dollars.
It has only one biggest rival, and that is the e-commerce giant Alibaba.
Whether it can increase to 100 billion US dollars in the future depends entirely on whether Pinduoduo can gain the advantage in the subsequent competition with Alibaba.
It must be said that Ali has been quite arrogant in recent years, starting from his earliest slogan: "No business is difficult in the world."
Now all the small sellers have been driven away, and the initial dedication in the after-sales sector has been lost.
In this case, Pinduoduo actually still has certain opportunities.
Chen Pingsheng touched his chin and was a little unable to make a decision for a moment.
"Uncle Chen, what are you looking at?"
“Look at some of the financial data Pinduoduo recently released.”
Chen Pingsheng said: "I plan to use a little more funds to increase my holdings in Pinduoduo to see if I can increase the value of the existing funds!"
He acted immediately and currently owns 3% of Pinduoduo's shares.
After Pinduoduo goes public, he plans to buy back 2% of the total shares from the secondary market.
It will probably cost more than 4 billion yuan to invest.
Chen Pingsheng still trusts his own judgment, and once he has made a decision, he will not hesitate any longer.
Rather than speculating in short-term stocks, he prefers to use his money to invest in the long term.
And the most crucial thing is that Pinxixi is going to be listed on the US stock market. After he buys it with this money, he can indirectly transfer this capital smoothly to an overseas account.
There are currently not many uses for the remaining six billion.
Chen Pingsheng also used 4 billion to increase his holdings in Tesla, buying 4% of the total shares from his own 3%.
After completing these two investments, he would probably have 2 billion in cash left.
Every time I make a lot of money, I feel uncomfortable if I don’t take the opportunity to spend some.
After finishing his work, Chen Pingsheng turned off the computer.
"Wanyi, you don't have a house in Hong Kong yet, right?"
"Uncle Chen, I haven't even made it to Guangzhou yet, let alone Hong Kong."
Zhang Wanyi said quietly, "Uncle Chen, you lent me ten million to buy that house in the Magic City."
"Your status is different now, so you still have to own a few houses."
Chen Pingsheng said, "I'll lend you 30 million first. When you return to Guangzhou tomorrow, go buy a house you like. You'll need to come to Hong Kong often in the future. With the housing prices here, it's difficult to afford a house with your salary. Tomorrow, I'll have the Hong Kong headquarters buy you a 1,000-square-foot mansion, which you can use as your permanent residence here."
"Uncle Chen, you are so kind to me."
"Don't be touched. If you don't do your job well, you will still be scolded."
Chen Pingsheng said, "I'm not short of money now, and you've been with me for several years. As the most beautiful female CEO of Tengyou, you must have the proper status. You can't be a CEO who makes less money than the internet celebrities below you. How can you manage them then?"
The secretary's temperament has improved now.
Even if she was transferred to Tencent to be the president, as long as Douyin had not yet gone public and had not opened an online mall.
Her annual income after tax is only eight or nine million, which is not as much as that of first-tier internet celebrities.
It would be completely different if it could be successfully listed.
Even if it's only 1% of the shares, it's worth at least 400 to 500 million.
Chen Pingsheng asked her to take a shower and go to bed early, and her little secretary got up.
Lin Qiunan, who often follows him, is still an ordinary white-collar worker.
The reason why he let Lin Qiunan stay by his side was that this woman had suffered enough since childhood and was very tenacious in everything she did.
We must do it and will not compromise at all.
Another point is that Lin Qiunan looks very comfortable, and her temperament is more like Liu Shishi in the entertainment industry.
Elegant yet refined.
Maybe after a while, she will really be able to replace the secretary Zhang Wanyi.
In fact, he had a secretary before who did a good job, but that secretary had an obvious shortcoming.
That means you can't keep your mouth shut.
He actually posted the long-term stocks he held in the class group.
He also often reveals some of his personal matters intentionally or unintentionally.
Because of this habit, the highly educated girl successfully got herself removed from the secretarial team.
Transferred to the group as an ordinary financial analyst.
If you want to stay and work beside him, you must be strict with your words.
…
The next morning.
Chen Pingsheng took Lin Qiunan back to the Demon City.
Secretary Zhang Wanyi rushed back to Tengyou headquarters.
As soon as he got home, he was stopped at the door by Erpi Ya.
The little girl wanted to take her with her to wander the earth.
She had never skied in Antarctica or drifted on the sea in her life.
She still remembers what her father promised her.
"Dad, when are you going to take me skiing?"
"You're still skiing in the middle of summer. How about I build you an igloo in Shanghai?"
"Hey...that's a good idea!"
Erpi Ya fell into deep fantasy again.
Chen Pingsheng ignored her and said, "Wait a few days. When your mother is back from her busy schedule, we can go together."
"Okay!" Erpiya stuck out her little butt and went to play by herself.
Chen Pingsheng still has more than 2 billion yuan left, and his wife is planning to organize a grand night of water and clouds in the Magic City during this period.
The activities are held every year and can probably raise more than 2 billion.
This is the trouble with being too rich; even spending it is not easy.
After thinking about it, he went to Tengying Entertainment to take a look.
Yang Mi, who is completely financially free, no longer focuses all her attention on work and often goes out to play and travel.
As for Liu Yifei, who had failed in the film industry for ten years, she is still able to perform well after returning to TV dramas.
Zhao Liying has become the true queen of the drama industry, and any TV series she stars in is basically a hit.
She has become a real gold-lettered sign in this field.
As for the other new little flowers.
Meng Ziyi has no special features except that she is pretty and sings awfully.
Zhou Yekong has top-notch Bai Yueguang looks, but his acting skills are terrible.
In addition, Phoenix Yang Chaoyue, who came from variety shows, is no different from her.
Apart from crying, he can't do anything else.
Tengying Entertainment has actually fallen into a period of transition when it comes to young actresses.
The ones who can really fight are the old generation.
Chen Pingsheng called these new flowers and asked them to stand in a row obediently.
She is really beautiful, but it is an indisputable fact that her acting skills are terrible.
"Ziyi, we've known each other for almost five years, right?"
"Big Boss, four years and three months."
Meng Ziyi couldn't figure out why the big boss called her over after he arrived, and looked at Ye Zi and Chaoyue beside him.
I felt a little more confident instantly.
Although she can't compare with Zhao Liying, can she compare with Yang Chaoyue and Yezi?
With these two guys around, there's nothing to be afraid of.
"Well, you have a really good memory."
Chen Pingsheng glared at her. Meng Ziyi wore tight jeans all year round, and her big butt and breasts had always been her specialty.
"How dare you say we've known each other for five years? What's wrong with you? You've been in so many movies and your acting is still the same as before. Not only has it not improved, it's even declining."
"Boss, sister Chaoyue is still here."
"Well... she's worse than you!"
Chen Pingsheng asked her to go out and reflect on herself, otherwise if she continued like this she would have no choice but to become a variety show star.
Zhou Ye in the middle still had the nerve to laugh.
She has a face that is considered one of the most popular in the entertainment industry, although she has no breasts or butt.
But her face is really good for fighting, but it's a pity that her acting is also terrible.
Not to mention Yang Chaoyue, who became famous from the trainee competition he organized himself.
While he has won the love of countless audiences, his acting has always been a dead end.
The only good thing is the traditional Chinese style girl Shen Wanning, who has become a real movie star.
Although it couldn't sustain the box office, it was still pretty good.
If you want to be a leading figure in the entertainment industry, appearance is the first requirement, followed by acting skills.
These girls are all very beautiful, but unfortunately they just can't become popular.
She is still a long way from the stage of Zhao Liying, Liu Yifei, and Yang Mi.
You can't reach that level even if you spend all your resources.
Fortunately, in the film industry, we have Wu Jing, Shen Teng, Chen Sicheng and others who are holding up half the sky.
Otherwise, the market value of Tencent Entertainment would be extremely mysterious.
As one of the earliest established entertainment groups, it certainly cannot fall because of this.
We can only hope that Zhao Liying, Liu Yifei and others can hold on for a few more years.
He also wants to train some actresses with real acting skills.
Chen Pingsheng called Bai Xin and told her that she must pay attention to her acting skills.
Training courses should also be started immediately.
If veterans like Meng Ziyi and Zhou Ye continue to act like they are staring blankly, they must be hung up and spanked.
If they are not strict, they will probably never grow to the height of Zhao Liying.
He is not an expert in all matters related to the entertainment industry, so he can only use the survival of the fittest method to eliminate one group after another.
Fortunately, there is Tengying Art School that is constantly cultivating talents.
It takes at least three years and at most seven or eight years to cultivate a star.
Most people will never become famous in their lifetime.
If you are lucky, you can create an internet celebrity overnight.
At the slowest, it will only take three to five months.
The earning abilities of first-line celebrities and first-line internet celebrities are actually similar.
Comparing the two, it is obvious that cultivating internet celebrities is more cost-effective.
Meng Ziyi can't be a first-line star, but if she becomes an internet celebrity, with her looks, she will definitely beat everyone wherever she goes.
If she fails in another drama tomorrow, I might as well let her become a top internet celebrity.
It’s no wonder Chen Pingsheng thinks this way. It’s really too difficult to cultivate a top-tier star.
A small fire depends on people to support it, but a big fire really depends on luck.
Liu Yifei is a product of the times, and it is very difficult to cultivate another female star of her level.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to let them become internet celebrities and make money by selling products for themselves.
It’s not Chen Pingsheng’s fault for thinking this way, it’s just that they themselves are too disappointing.
After spending an afternoon at Tengying Entertainment, he returned to his own Tengying Group.
The group's transformation, including asset restructuring, has been completed.
Even if the share price of Tencent Entertainment falls back to below 80 billion, it will not have much impact on him.
After all, he had already cashed out at a high price, and now only the last 10% is left.
It is far less rapid than the appreciation of some of the stocks he is investing in now.
No matter how much changes happen in the next few years, Tengying Group will remain as stable as a rock.
