Chapter 859: Self-indulgent
Til Swigger is a true example of the actor-turned-director trend, having also directed films himself. And like Hollywood's "King" Will Smith, he's also the type to push his children with all his might.
Will Smith's eight consecutive films grossed over $100 million domestically, setting a new Hollywood record. His fans dubbed him "Smith," with "Smith" being the character for "history." However, he's become a box office flop in recent years, largely due to his desire to one day make his son a superstar, which he often brings along with him.
At that time, Jaden Smith's performance in the movie "The Pursuit of Happyness" was amazing, so this also gave Will Smith confidence. He took his son to film in various movies. However, the good scripts did not allow him to act with his son, so he could only take some bad scripts. As a result, his reputation was damaged as it is now.
Of course, even so, Will Smith is still one of the ten highest-paid actors in the world.
Til Sweiger and Will Smith are also "baby slaves", but he is "smarter" than Will Smith. He directed a movie "Coq au Vin" and let his youngest daughter Emma star in it, which was a great success. Then he filmed "Coq au Vin 2" and "Honey on the Brain", which further increased his daughter's popularity.
After laying the foundation, he allowed his daughter to return to a state of peace. This was certainly not a sign of giving up, but rather a way to settle down and accumulate experience. It has proven to be a good move. Now, at only 19 years old, Emma has been called the "German version of Drew Barrymore" and has a promising future.
Even though Till Swiger has a bad reputation, he is very kind to his four children. When he comes here, he thinks about his children.
Xiao Peng smiled bitterly and said, "Til, I really don't rent this boat. I originally thought that if you wanted to come and play, you could just bring the children. But then I thought about going out to sea soon and couldn't invite you over. So I can only say sorry in advance."
After hearing this, Tilschweiger said hurriedly: "Oh, Mr. Xiao, there is nothing to be sorry about. I want to thank you for your sincerity."
Til Schweiger isn't exactly broke. His self-financed films, including the "Coq au Vin" series and "Honey on the Brain," have both been box office hits, and he's a wealthy man. But there's a difference between the rich and the rich. Even if he took out all his money, it wouldn't be enough to buy the Luna. You could let him rent it out, sure, but how many people would actually rent out a private yacht like that?
Even if someone uses the name "rental" for a yacht, it's not really for rental purposes, but rather for money laundering. Turning illegal income into legal income through "yacht rentals" is a common tactic used by yacht owners.
Nanji said, "Til, you don't understand Xiao's asset structure. All of Xiao's assets are liquid funds... Oh, apart from his 5% stake in the Tri-State Alliance, he probably doesn't have as much real estate as you do. The interest he earns each year from various funds is enough to cover the operating expenses of his two ships. So of course he can drive the ships to any corner for maintenance."
Xiao Peng was stunned after hearing this and turned to look at Nan Ji: "Have you investigated this?"
Nanji smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, don't get excited. My family is a financial family, and my father is what ordinary people call a 'banker.' And your asset structure is no secret in the financial industry."
Xiao Peng spread out his hands. "Okay, I'm considering transferring all the money back to Huaxia or putting it in a Swiss bank. I have so much money now that it's a hassle. If I really transfer this money back to China, it will easily trigger the bank's risk control, and it will require all kinds of information to prove the safety of the funds, which is too troublesome."
"Oh?" Nanji smiled after hearing this and said, "Mr. Xiao, you're too polite. What do you mean by 'special handling for special matters'? With your current influence, I don't think this matter is too big of a problem."
Xiao Peng smiled but did not answer the question.
Nanji suddenly asked at this time: "Mr. Xiao, can I talk to you alone?"
"Huh?" Xiao Peng pointed at his nose and asked, "Let's talk alone?"
He instantly fell into a serious ideological struggle.
Nanji Allman wants to have a 'private talk' with me! Doesn't this mean he has something on his mind?
Oh, even though she's a little older, she's still incredibly beautiful! Especially those legs, they really shouldn't belong to humans.
What if she has any improper thoughts about me? Should I give in to her or give in to her? Opportunities like this don't always come around! It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity...
The problem is that Tilty is on the boat, so is this a bad idea? Oh, wouldn't this be more exciting?
The two black and white figures in Xiao Peng's mind were fighting desperately, with each side taking turns to gain the upper hand.
Of course, this incident doesn't mean Xiao Peng still has a "conscience", but rather that he is not a good person: after all, if he really doesn't have any bad thoughts, then would there be a "little devil" in his mind? And can the "little devil" gain the upper hand?
When Xiao Peng came to his senses, he and Nanji Allman had already entered his room on the boat. Oh my god, the 'little devil' won? I didn't drink today! I can't even give myself an excuse for doing this.
After Nanji entered the room, he walked directly to Xiao Peng's bed and stroked it. Xiao Peng took a deep breath. Is this so direct? Straight to the point?
What should I do? Should I just go for it or play it safe?
At this moment, Nanji's words brought him back to reality: "Is this a bed made by 'Stuart Hughes' in Italy?"
Xiao Peng coughed twice to interrupt his wandering thoughts. "Yes. The furniture on the ship was all designed and made by Stuart-Hughes."
Nanji nodded and turned to sit on the sofa on the other side, looking dignified and elegant. "Xiao, you are a person who enjoys life. The furniture on the 'Stuart Hughes' is really luxurious. How much did you spend on these furniture on the ship? Fifteen million? Twenty million?"
Xiao Peng shook his head. "I really don't know. This was done by the original owner. In fact, if I hadn't bought this boat, I wouldn't have even heard of the 'Stuart-Hughes' brand. I was shocked when I found out. A company that dares to sell a bed for $6.3 million is really scary."
He looked at Nanji's performance and thought, hmm...why did he seem to be being too sentimental? Nanji didn't seem to be looking for him to have any contact beyond friendship!
Now Xiao Peng even wants to laugh at himself. No matter how rich a man is, he always has his loser side.
I was still fantasizing so much, but I didn’t expect that the clown would be myself!
