Chapter 117: Get along with the big penguin [Please subscribe! ]
An hour later, in a bedroom of an old building.
Wang Chengguang handed 18,000 yuan to the young landlord and said with a smile, "You also have to sign the contract and give us a deposit slip."
The young man's complexion improved a lot, and he said calmly, "I definitely have this, why are you in such a hurry? Wait until I count the money and see if the amount is correct."
After counting the money, he also took out a simple contract, which was in duplicate and included a deposit slip, etc., all very formal.
After the two sides completed the handover, the young man smiled again and said, "By the way, let me inform you that you need to prepay 500 yuan for water, electricity, gas, management fees, internet fees, cleaning fees, etc."
"I've already paid 500 yuan, so please be quick with the next yuan."
"Also, there is a 1000 yuan stop-loss fee for the air conditioners, refrigerators, and televisions here."
The first landlord charged him 61 cents per kilowatt-hour for electricity and 2.8 yuan per ton for water, but he made double the profit when he turned around.
Wang Manni's eyes widened. "So many random charges? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
Wang Chengguang had reminded her before, so she was mentally prepared, but... this still shocked her as she had just stepped out of high school.
The young man glared at her impatiently, "Why are you wasting so much time? Hurry up, I'm busy."
Wang Chengguang paid the money without hesitation. "We have already paid the 6000 yuan deposit. If you want us to pay these, please write a new receipt clearly."
The young man frowned and looked at him for a few times, then nodded, "Okay, but you better be smart, the big thing is broken, and this 1000 is not enough."
He has other houses waiting to be rented out. In the business of second-hand landlord, how can you make a lot of money if you only have one house?
He has many friends who can work with him.
After all, this was Wang Chengguang's order, and he asked someone to look for him specifically. It took a whole day to find this weird guy, one of the most deceptive second-hand landlords.
After everything was settled, Wang Chengguang and his partner left the old neighborhood. Standing beside the Volkswagen Phaeton outside the gate, Wang Manni took a breath of cold air, "I never dreamed that renting a house would have so many pitfalls."
“Society is too complicated.”
Wang Chengguang smiled. "Get in the car. I'll take you around Beijing University of Architecture and Technology and take some photos for you. When you post on Weibo, you can also promote Beijing University of Architecture and Technology..."
"Your sister and you are so popular that you said your first choice is Beijing University of Architecture and Technology. I hope you can get in. Otherwise, this house will be rented for nothing."
Now is not the time for any college to issue admission notices, but Wang Manni is an internal candidate, specially recruited for Wang Chengguang's sake.
It is not appropriate to say more about this kind of behind-the-scenes operation.
But Wang Manni is rich now, after all, she and Gu Jingjing were at the auto show to support Volkswagen, and on the surface they made 100 million.
Spending ten or twenty thousand to rent a house near the school is not a big deal.
As for the fact that Midea's people haven't come yet, he has already completed this operation? Will it be in vain and he won't be able to negotiate with Midea...
To put it bluntly, Midea is not willing to cooperate in this operation, but for other brands of air conditioners, if you just send out an invitation, there will always be people who are interested in trying it.
Wang Manni is very popular. Gu Jingjing has more than 200 million fans, and she has 100 million. If the two sisters are put together, they will look like twins, with one plus one being greater than two.
As long as the people who come here have normal business thinking, they will know that this kind of cooperation is a win-win situation.
Wang Manni nodded repeatedly, and quickly got on the passenger seat of the Phaeton at the signal, pulling off her mask. "I'm almost dying of heat. Being an influencer also has some troubles and restrictions, but when you think about making a lot of money so easily, this little thing is nothing."
Wang Chengguang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He started the car and went to school.
........................
A little after seven in the morning on July 7th.
Another hearty breakfast was ready. Wang Chengguang sat at the table and looked at Gu Jingjing strangely. Jingjing was about to start eating when she was stunned for a few seconds. She smiled and said, "What's wrong? Is there something dirty on my face?"
Wu Xiaowei had already started eating. She ate the medicinal food and shook her head, "No, she's pretty. You just finished your morning exercises not long ago. Aren't you tired of it?"
"Brother Guang, please take my attitude into consideration. You are a little too obsessed with Jingjing. If you continue like this, things will definitely get bad."
Wang Chengguang coughed, "I've also read some medical books for a few days, and taken some medicated food supplements... Jingjing, you should drink some water."
The day before yesterday, he had gained some morning exercise experience, and Gu Jingjing had reported it seven times, which was outrageous. Today, it was the same...
This made him doubt for a moment whether he had lost his charm towards Xiaowei.
In most cases, Wu Xiaowei's experience is only a drop in the ocean two or three times.
Is it a matter of adjustment? When he first met Xiao Wei, she was just excellent in all aspects.
Gu Jingjing blushed, "Then I'll eat more and drink more water to replenish my body, and take calcium at the same time."
After all, it was only after returning home last night that her younger sister Wang Manni mentioned to her that after the Olympics, Wang Chengguang wanted to promote a big topic of taking photos to rescue abducted people.
If you do it well, it will bring you immeasurable merit.
She felt that in this regard, Wang Chengguang treated her much better than his sister-in-law. When people get excited and their mentality becomes too chaotic, they are prone to convulsions.
Of course, Gu Jingjing knew that Xiaowei's sister-in-law did not want to follow the internet celebrity route because she disliked the hassle, including having to wear a mask and sunglasses whenever she went out after becoming famous, and might even have to hire bodyguards and assistants in the future.
This was not the freedom she had when she sat on the back of a bicycle and went shopping and played alone with Wang Chengguang.
Wang Chengguang nodded, "By the way, if you don't have a better use for the money you've earned recently, save it. In September, I'll take you there and it will be of great use."
Gu Jingjing nodded, "I'll listen to you."
Wu Xiaowei couldn't bear it any longer, "What a bastard!"
Wang Chengguang, “…”
He coughed and explained, "Then we can go to Hong Kong Island together."
He has more or less read some financial knowledge and knows how terrible the 2008 financial crisis was.
Want to get rich in the financial crisis? The easiest way.
One was to go to Hong Kong Island in September and October, when the financial crisis broke out, and short-sell the Big Penguin and Jack Ma's Alibaba, making a fortune.
Then buy the stocks of Big Penguin and Alibaba at the bottom.
Big Penguin was listed in Hong Kong Island in 2004 with an issue price of HK$3.7 per share. Its market value that year was over HK$100 billion, and subsequently climbed to over HK$200 billion.
At the bottom after the financial crisis, Penguin fell to a very miserable level.
The Hong Kong stock market was devastated by the impact, and the Hang Seng Index fell by 66.5%! It was even worse than in 97.
Let’s not talk about the profits from short selling, let’s just say you bought at the bottom. The market value of the 2024 Big Penguin before the time travel was 3.55 trillion Hong Kong dollars, and one share was 370 Hong Kong dollars.
I bought the bottom at a single-digit HKD per share, and more than a decade later, it was 370 per share? ? It increased by dozens of times? No, it increased by more than a hundred times!!
Because Big Penguin split once in 2014, splitting one share into five.
If you hold it for the long term, buying 10 shares at the bottom of the financial crisis will be equivalent to 2024 shares in 50.
This is only six or seven Hong Kong dollars per share, which is equivalent to more than 2024 Hong Kong dollars per share in 1850. This is more than times in just over a decade!
Gu Jingjing has now invested 200 million RMB. Putting aside various exchange rate fluctuations, it will basically be equivalent to 2024 times the Hong Kong dollar value in 200.
200 million turned into hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars.
This is a much more profitable business than real estate.
Of course, with the arrival of Wang Chengguang in this dimension, Penguin certainly cannot easily increase its volume 200 times like in the original trajectory. First of all, everyone is stealing vegetables... This will not explode in Penguin Space, and there will not be such an exaggerated number of active users, and advertising revenue will also decrease.
It will definitely affect the market value.
Furthermore, once Wang Chengguang makes Xinghuo bigger and stronger and turns it into the leader in short microblogs and a super media, he will definitely try to develop WeChat in 2010.
With the number one Weibo account in the country, Wang Chengguang has the capital, so he has to give it a try.
If even WeChat can intercept it, or share the world with Big Penguin and become a two-strong competition, then it is impossible for Big Penguin to increase 200 times.
But even if it is not possible, the stock price of Big Penguin can increase dozens of times, far exceeding the increase in housing prices. It can be done. Penguin really has 800 million users.
Mobile Penguin is uniquely positioned to convert WeChat users.
Putting aside the huge profits from short selling during the financial crisis, Penguin's old blood is already a super business.
Jack Ma's Alibaba is also in a bad state. Alibaba B2B was listed in November last year and is also a Hong Kong stock. At its peak, it rose to 11 Hong Kong dollars per share. But when the financial crisis hit, Alibaba plummeted to 41 Hong Kong dollars per share in October 2008.
This only includes B2B, not Taobao and Zhifubao.
Short selling is a big profit. Buy at the bottom and sell high after the market recovers. You can also make money. If there are Taobao and Zhifubao? Then you are not selling high but joining the market as a shareholder.
Alibaba B2B was delisted from the Hong Kong stock market in 2012. The redemption price was HK$13.5 per share. You bought it at HK$3.46 per share. The profit was not huge, but you still made some money.
Alibaba is just an example. When the financial crisis hit, countless stocks plummeted in all directions. If Alibaba is not suitable, you can choose other stocks like Big Penguin.
Wang Chengguang would not speculate on the overall short selling of the Hang Seng Index. That kind of short selling...sucked the blood of too many Hong Kong citizens. Once it was exposed in the news, everyone would blame him.
As he runs a large media platform, it is not appropriate for him to have an image that is reviled by everyone, as it will have a huge impact on the market value.
This is not good for his image as a big factory entrepreneur.
However, if he only targets Big Penguin, Alibaba and the like, that would be just the dirty work among capitalists. Once it is exposed, the outside world will only think that it is a personal grudge between him and Pony Ma and Ma.
If you are shorting the Big Penguin, you can also use leverage! !
By then, he can simply withdraw money from Xinghuo Media, or go to the bank to borrow 1 billion yuan, or no more, and use a low leverage ratio. When he returns to Beijing, he will be able to buy hundreds of acres of land and build villas like Meng Laicai.
You can also buy at the bottom and become one of the shareholders of Big Penguin.
Didn't Pony Ma want to acquire 10% of Spark? With the help of the financial crisis, he also wanted to acquire 10% of Big Penguin... Then he would be in good company with Pony Ma.
Originally, facing the pressure from European, American, Korean, Hong Kong and Taiwanese capital and venture capital after the Olympics, the company could also draw strength from the big penguin.
It seems that in May this year, Pony Ma again sold hundreds of thousands of shares to cash out, and his shareholding ratio is only a few digits left.
During this financial crisis, Wang Chengguang not only took out loans for short selling and bought up 10% of shares at a low price, but as long as it was more than 5%, he would be able to attend the Big Penguin board meeting and vote.
Big Penguin does not have A or B shares, and there is no situation of equal shares but different voting rights.
Hong Kong stock listing means equal rights for equal shares!!
Jack Ma’s Alibaba will be delisted from the Hong Kong stock market. After experiencing various fluctuations, Jack Ma also wants to operate with different voting rights for the same shares. Even if I only have 15% of the shares, I can still control more than 50% of the voting rights.
Since the Hong Kong stock market refused to agree, Ma went to Nasdaq for listing, and the IPO raised more than 1 trillion yuan in market value.
As long as Wang Chengguang can get loans, complete short-selling and subsequent bottom-fishing plans from September to October, he can get more than 9%, preferably close to 10% of the equity.
He is one of the new leaders of the Penguin.
Whoever helps his Spark Media to resist the pressure from European and American capital, Taiwan, South Korea, and Hong Kong and Macau capital, he will support in the Penguin Empire!
On the one hand, Gu Jingjing and Wang Manni's plan to combat kidnappings around the world, rescue the kidnapped people and cooperate with the entire police system to win the favor of the people. On the other hand, they transform themselves into capital and kidnap Xiao Ma Ge to fight the pressure with him.
Should we kidnap Alibaba’s Jack Ma? Let’s wait and see.
This route is still very stable.
After the Olympics, we cannot just say that we have no choice but to bow to capital.
After breakfast, he was about to go out and said with a smile, "You guys spend the next two months to save some money. Just prepare it. Afterwards, we will buy land in the fourth or fifth ring road of North and build a large manor villa."
"It's not far from the Spark Headquarters Building..."
A night of love means a hundred nights of affection. He and Wu Xiaowei have been together for more than half a year and are almost worn out.
Gu Jingjing made him understand what it meant to be made of water.
He went out today and made appointments with many bigwigs in the banking industry. He even asked the president of Beijing University of Architecture and Technology to meet with him. He planned to discuss a loan of 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.
When there was no financing, for this battle, in order to become a close partner of Xiao Ma Ge, the same major shareholder of Big Penguin...
Even if he mortgages part of the shares of Spark Media, it will be worth it.
There is another saying: the more money you owe to the bank, the better friends you become with the bank!!!
We can also draw strength from banks to jointly resist capital pressure.
If Xiao Ma Ge knew how much he wanted to make friends with the other person and get along with him, he would definitely be moved to tears.
When Wang Chengguang walked downstairs, he saw Wang Manni walking towards him... He was stunned for a moment and smiled, "I'm going to work first. I'm going there by car today. You don't have to come with me to deliver the clothes. There's still a lot of food. Your sister-in-law and your sister are eating."
Wang Manni was stunned, "So early today?"
Wang Chengguang nodded, "Yes, you just need to be at the Spark Media headquarters before ten o'clock. Mr. Fang from Midea is here. He quoted a price through my cousin's wife. You and Jingjing will work with Midea to get all kinds of pitfalls from second-hand landlords. I'll give you 100 million."
"There's no need to stand at the auto show for seven days like Volkswagen did."
“Whether you’re at home or at work, just take photos and post them on Weibo to interact.”
Wang Manni was ecstatic, "Brother Wang, I... really don't know what to say."
It was so easy and she earned another 25 before tax. She didn't know how to repay the favor. She couldn't be as shameless as her cousin.
Then again, putting the facts aside... she blushed again, and her heartbeat quickened. After all, apart from the last time when she was afraid of falling off the bicycle and hugged him tightly, she had also experienced this.
Zhong Miaomiao's shouting that someone was killed scared her so much that she almost fell down and overturned the car. It was Wang Chengguang who carried her out of the car.
That was just a short-term suspension bridge effect, and she didn't sleep well that night.
After Wang Manni thanked him with a red face and ran into the corridor, Wang Chengguang lit a cigarette speechlessly. He also found that his moral integrity was declining...
The twins were so mean that he would sometimes have bad thoughts in front of Wang Manni.
孽 孽!
Forget it, let’s get to work quickly. I’m waiting to have lunch with Principal Liu, Teacher Luo and others at noon, and meet the bank bosses.
Whether you can join Nanshan Pizza Hut and vote on the board of directors depends on this prelude!
