Chapter 153 She only dreams of making money now [Please subscribe! ]
While Lu Tao was running to make tea, Wang Chengguang glanced at Grandma Jiang and the others who had stopped eating and were still nervous and restrained, and said with a smile, "The reason I came here so suddenly is mainly because my family was attacked by someone, and I want to ask Mr. Xu to help identify the murderer."
"Please forgive me for any abruptness."
As he was talking, Lu Tao just made a cup of tea and said with a smile, "Boss Xu is right. I will use tea instead of wine to offer everyone a cup as an apology."
Grandma Jiang smiled politely, "You're welcome, Mr. Wang. We are the ones who are being rude this time. You were already outside the house, but we still let Xiao Tao pick you up alone."
Grandma Jiang was an upper-class person from the old society who came from the Republic of China era, but she was also shocked by the simple conversation between her eldest son Xu Zhisen and the other party.
Wang Chengguang only asks you to collect enough money within a few days...
Xu Zhisen, on the other hand, started talking about the official 4 trillion yuan plan, saying that Jingshangyang Real Estate might make 10 billion, 20 billion, or even 50 billion yuan next year or the year after. This is too scary.
Jiang Pengfei and his wife were also gasping for breath. Their family lived well, ate well, and had good things to do, but because of Jiang Pengfei's poor personal ability, they were living off their savings.
No matter whether Xu Zhisen had a falling out with his family and changed his surname and ran away, or abandoned his wife and children to go to North America, Xu Zhisen has made it to the present day with billions in assets, and has become someone Jiang Pengfei needs to look up to, while Jiang Pengfei hides in the corner weakly and feels inferior.
Xu Zhisen was also laughing. "Yes, Mr. Wang is too polite. We are able to be of some use in this small matter. To put it bluntly, I didn't know people well. I was the one who introduced Lu Tao to Liang Zhengxian in the first place."
"I'll have a drink with you, Mom, Lao Er..."
When Xu Zhisen was greeting his family, Wang Chengguang interrupted him with a wave of his hand and offered a glass of tea instead of wine to apologize, "I came in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts. I will make up for it next time."
Xu Zhisen smiled more modestly, "Mr. Wang, your words are too polite. It is our honor that you can come here. It is also a great honor for Lu Tao to have a classmate like you..."
Lu Tao coughed awkwardly twice, "Can you please give me a little face, Mr. Wang? How about I open a bottle of red wine and let Old Xu toast you with real wine?"
Wang Chengguang laughed dumbly, "No need, I understand what Mr. Xu means, and I've also said that I'm not interested in real estate. Once things are settled, I can cash out my money at a high price, or mortgage the land and real estate in Beijing or Shanghai, it's all fine."
He really didn't want to be distracted by the real estate industry. Not only was the industry complicated, but the prospects were not that great...
However, if you spend tens of billions of yuan based on the current price or the price in the next one or two months, it would be a great value to buy land in Beijing, Shanghai and hoard it.
Xu Zhisen nodded. "That's easy to say. I'll listen to you. Now one hundred acres of construction land in Beijing costs less than 2 million yuan. Although it is recovering, it still hasn't risen to 2 million yuan."
"Shanghai is about the same. I know that the Liang Group has built a residential community in Pudong that covers an area of 100 to 200 acres. There are river view houses. If Mr. Wang wants them, they can be delivered at any time."
Wang Chengguang laughed, "Okay, it's settled!"
The earliest stall was set up in Pengcheng University Town, and we met the Ren family from Hong Kong Island. They had a real estate project near the Pearl Tower. Does the Liang family also have one this time?
This is normal. Aren't Beijing, Shanghai, Yangzhou and Shenzhen the most popular real estate areas for Hong Kong capital, and also the areas with the most investment and the widest scope? Properties with major landscapes such as river views are even more popular, just like Victoria Harbour sea view hotels and offices.
Wang Chengguang chatted with Lu Tao and Xia Lin for a while, mainly greeting each other, congratulating them in advance and wishing them a quick birth and a healthy baby, and made an appointment to have dinner together next time they had time, and then left.
Xu Zhisen, Lu Tao, Xia Lin and Grandma Jiang saw him off and watched the crowd go away.
Jiang Pengfei asked curiously and doubtfully, "Boss, who is this person? Didn't Lu Tao say yesterday that he was his classmate from Beijing University of Architecture and Technology, who graduated less than two years ago? Xiao Tao even started a business with him."
Xu Zhisen, who was feeling very proud, was stimulated by these words and started to cough madly. He stared at Lu Tao for dozens of seconds, until Lu Tao hid behind Xia Lin. Then he cursed in a low voice, "You call that thing you did back then 'starting a business with Mr. Wang'?"
"I want to take advantage of him and make a fortune this time, so I can't hide it from him."
"But it is indeed an opportunity to find someone to turn to for help when you encounter great difficulties in the future."
Seeing Lu Tao hesitated and wanted to refute, Jiang Pengfei became even more anxious, "Xiao Tao, don't interrupt, Boss, you haven't told me who that was just now."
Xu Zhisen waved his hand to signal everyone to go home. When he arrived in the living room, he stared at Zhu Suosuo for a while before he smiled and said, "Who? The largest shareholder of Big Penguin. To be precise, the second largest shareholder. The founder of Penguin, Brother Xiao Ma, is now working for him!"
"The stealing game is all the rage right now. Everyone in Penguin Space is going crazy stealing. Do you understand?"
Grandma Jiang, Jiang Pengfei, Jiang Nansun, and Zhu Suosuo were all stunned by these words. When they were dazed, Lu Tao also exploded, "What the hell, Old Xu, what did you say? You said that Old Wang is the second largest shareholder of Penguin Empire? Are you kidding me?!"
Charlene was also extremely shocked.
Xu Zhisen looked at Lu Tao calmly again, "Now you know why I sold the Liang family. Countless people went bankrupt and jumped into the sea during the global financial crisis, but Mr. Wang made a fortune. Brother Ma went from being a tycoon to a wage earner."
"Not many people know about this, but some people are gradually finding out about it. I won't talk about how everyone feels about it."
"I can only say that Spark Media will be protected by Big Penguin from now on. Mr. Ma doesn't want to invite a wolf into the house. If Mr. Wang's control over Spark Group decreases a little, he can go to Big Penguin to make decisions."
"With two large companies, Spark and Penguin, he can compete strongly even if he is not the No. 30 in the Internet industry. According to the valuation before the financial crisis, he is now worth at least billion US dollars."
"Even when the financial crisis hit, Empire of Penguin and Spark had a large number of high-quality online games to generate revenue and provide blood transfusions, and were the first to recover from the financial crisis."
"He is only 23 years old, and he easily controls two multi-billion dollar groups. He is not someone that we, the old-timers, can easily provoke."
Lu Tao exploded again, "Fuck, is this true? Fuck..."
Charlene was in a similar situation. She was afraid that she was too emotional and would affect the fetus, so she found a chair to sit down and drank some water to calm herself down.
No matter how Wang Chengguang's Spark Group becomes bigger and stronger, that is Spark's business. After all, it was Spark that was gradually created by the other party while they were watching.
There are traces of the path to wealth.
But suddenly investing in Penguin and becoming the second largest shareholder? This is outrageous.
Lu Tao calmed down a bit and asked curiously, "How much did he spend on Penguin? Buying at the bottom during the financial crisis wasn't cheap, right?"
Xu Zhisen lit a cigarette. "More than 30 billion Hong Kong dollars, who knows the exact amount? But compared to people like us who work so hard to auction land, design, plan, apply for construction and then undertake construction, we can earn or million from a project."
"The man who could catch the trajectory of the global financial crisis and gamble lavishly, not getting hurt if he lost but reaching a new level if he won, is really out of date."
Wang Chengguang has been telling Xiao Ma Ge that he is the second largest shareholder of Penguin for nearly two months. Xiao Ma Ge rallied the board of directors and did other things... such as finding out in detail who helped Wang Chengguang receive the goods, and found out that it was Jiahui Global Investment.
He also kept an eye on the subsequent exchange rate increase to prevent Wang Chengguang from secretly purchasing more.
Once more than two people know something, it is no longer a secret. It only depends on when you are the one who knows it. Of course, this does not mean that everyone can know it. Xu Zhisen knew it when he visited a senior executive of Penguin Games Department and wanted to find out how deep the cooperation between Big Penguin and Spark was. He also used the honey trap to find out.
It’s still a beauty trap on the same level as Wang Pengqi’s.
He found and hired a certain executive's teenage crush and his white moonlight to come forward, and spent money to get the information.
There are coincidences in things, and they are not coincidences. Even if you want to spend money, it may not work accurately. For example, a certain executive's white moonlight is also in her 40s. Her elders are seriously ill, her children are under great pressure during their rebellious period, and her husband is an alcoholic and has a disorderly life, which makes her haggard and thin.
It only works well after spending some money.
If Xu Zhisen had not known about it by coincidence and had not found that person, he would not have known about it. It is hard to say how many Hong Kong investors would know about it at this stage... Liang Zhengxian's Liang family is not sure.
Xu Zhisen said again, "We are a family. I said this so that you can better understand what kind of person Mr. Wang is and how to make friends with him in the future. Don't tell others about it."
"This information is still very valuable. If you disclose it, you will make at least tens of millions of dollars in profit."
A group of people including Lu Tao nodded repeatedly.
After nodding, Jiang Nansun's eyes were empty as she spoke, "Uncle, that Brother Wang just now, his net worth started at 200 billion RMB? My brother Tao started a business with him?"
Xu Zhisen blushed.
Lu Tao covered his face and said, "Nansun, you're going to be late, aren't you? Today is Monday, hurry up and go to school. I just made a slip of the tongue, so please stop hitting me like this."
Jiang Nansun was still in a daze, and Zhu Suosuo pulled her upstairs. When they got upstairs, Zhu Suosuo complained, "You have such a low EQ. You hit someone in the face."
"But am I dreaming? That handsome guy at the airport yesterday, the owner of Xinghuo Weibo? I only have a few thousand fans on Xinghuo..."
"Nansun, several people have said that you look a lot like Xu Hongdou, who became famous for her emojis, or like her twin sister. Did Mr. Wang from Xinghuo Weibo graduate from Beijing University of Architecture and Technology? Then why did you apply to a university in Shanghai? Let's go to Beijing University of Architecture and Technology together next year."
"Such a handsome guy, starting with 23 billion at the age of 200? No wonder he talked to Uncle Xu about taking over the Liang family so easily."
Jiang Nansun is just a naive, innocent, rich and beautiful girl with a basic knowledge of tea art. However, Zhu Suosuo has been living under someone else's roof since she was a child and is very uncomfortable with her uncle's house.
Jiang Nansun's originally empty eyes suddenly became lively. She stared at her best friend for a few seconds and laughed, "What are you thinking about? Stop dreaming. She's 23 years old and the same age as my cousin. My cousin is about to become a father. Do you think such an outstanding person will wait for a 17-year-old girl like you to grow up?"
"Don't be ridiculous. Which of those famous internet celebrities in Xinghuo is worse than you? Many of them are prettier and more attractive than you."
Zhu Suosuo exploded, but quickly explained, "What nonsense are you talking about? I just want to be an internet celebrity, make money, and rent a house of my own. Forget about chasing after those big internet celebrities in Beijing. Even if I can compete with Gu Jia and Zhong Xiaoqin in Shanghai, I'll be satisfied."
She did have some strange thoughts in her mind just now, but they were instantly wiped out by the blow.
Now all she dreams about is making money.
"How about we also find Xu Hongdou's clothing style, hairstyle and makeup and make you a replica? Let netizens comment on whether they look like twins?"
"You two are definitely not as similar as Gu Jingjing and Wang Manni, but you are also similar."
Jiang Nansun's face turned green. She didn't want to be someone else's twin shadow.
………………
afternoon.
With the introduction of Xiao Ma Ge, Wang Chengguang met a few new friends and went to a dinner party. After the dinner, the crowd dispersed.
He was still waiting for Zhong Miaomiao and the other girl to come pick him up when he saw Jack Ma coming out of the hotel lobby lounge. "Mr. Wang, are you not drunk? If you are conscious, shall we go find a place to have a cup of tea?"
"I am also fulfilling my promise to introduce you to the leaders of the bank and public institutions. The location is..."
Jack finished telling the address, and Wang Chengguang nodded, "Okay, Mr. Ma, please wait for me for a while and make a phone call."
After the call, Jack said again, "I really didn't do what happened to your cousin. I also asked Softbank and Yahoo, and they didn't do it either."
This is not to say that Yahoo and Softbank have such high moral standards, but that they have not reached that stage yet. After all, everyone is still waiting to recover in the aftermath of the financial crisis.
Moreover, it will be difficult for Spark to go public in a year or two now. Only a fool would go public at this time until the storm is completely over.
New York was the worst-hit area by the financial crisis, and Hong Kong Island was merely swept by the fluctuations.
Wang Chengguang coughed and said, "I believe it. I have found the real culprit. It is a listed group in Hong Kong Island."
Jack Ma was stunned, nodded and smiled, "It's good to find it, it's good to find it, anything can be discussed, if we can reach an agreement, there's no need to be impulsive."
Don't blame Jack for being so anxious and explaining repeatedly that it was not him. First of all, he was really wronged. Secondly, he was afraid that Wang Chengguang would not be able to find the target and attack indiscriminately. Jack also has relatives.
How many people can resist all kinds of scams and traps? For example, in the future wave of real estate demolition, in any place where demolition is taking place, countless fraud and scam teams will hear the news in advance and run to make arrangements. How many people will be scammed and live a stable life after the demolition? !
Anyone would be angry when encountering such a thing. Before Alibaba was fully listed and Jack had dealt with Zhifubao, his trump cards and confidence were far from being sufficient as they would be a few years later.
A person's confidence and courage only expand a little bit as he becomes richer and more powerful.
Wang Chengguang smiled and smoked a cigar. "Boss Ma, I also hope that no matter how we fight business wars, discuss and compete in the market in the future, we can maintain a bottom line of not bringing harm to our families."
Jack smiled affirmatively, "This is best."
Another afternoon of drinking tea, chatting and making friends, including dinner.
At around 9pm, when Wang Chengguang returned to the hotel, he saw Wu Xiaowei and Wang Manni also arrived. He was a little amused and said, "I said I would be back in two days, but since you are here, it's nice to go shopping together in Shanghai."
"The Liang Group has one or two hundred acres of riverside residential land on the Huangpu River. When the time comes, you can choose the design and build a community well?"
After much thought, I decided to build a community. After building a community, I would hire a proper property management team, even if people nearby may feel that the occupancy rate of the community is not high.
This is also more low-key than building a luxurious building in a busy area.
