Chapter 494 "Husband"
Chapter 494 "Husband"
Currently, most of the assets are stored in Penguin Group.
It is just like the magic needle that stabilizes the sea. As long as there are no problems with this company, Fan Wumian will be able to sit back and enjoy a life of luxury and wealth.
Since his influence is very extensive and he has indirectly changed many things, it is difficult to guarantee that the Penguin Group will grow to an astonishing scale like in his previous life. Therefore, he cannot completely become a hands-off boss and still has to keep an eye on it personally.
Although he is not good at sitting in the office all day and giving orders personally, when it comes to the overall view of corporate strategic development, Fan Wumian believes that even the stock god Buffett and Wall Street capital tycoon Soros would have to admit defeat in front of him.
This is not self-boasting.
He knows almost everything about the "big trends" in the next ten years or so.
Like mobile smart terminal devices, electric vehicles, the development blueprint of the Internet industry, changes in the world pattern, etc., other investors can soar and change their lives as long as they seize some opportunities.
In Fan Wumian's eyes, even if Apple's stock price increases several times in the next few years, it is almost like chicken ribs that are tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away, and is not as attractive as Amazon.
This is because the latest market value of Amazon, an online shopping platform, is only more than $600 billion, while Apple is already worth more than $2000 billion, with its stock price rising by more than % in the past three years.
Therefore, Fan Wumian, who has missed the best opportunity to buy at the bottom, will inevitably regard Apple as a "bone that has been gnawed by others."
The funds on hand are limited. Since you can invest anywhere, it is better to specifically select high-quality projects with higher returns.
Since investing in Penguin Group.
Fan Wumian's influence on the company mainly focused on the two major projects: "online games" and "Penguin Weibo".
The former has been contributing huge profits to the Penguin Group due to its successful agency of games such as "World of Warcraft" and "KartRider", and has also successfully created an information gap. The new contract stipulates that it can obtain 78% of the revenue of "World of Warcraft" in the mainland within the next six years.
This is obviously a huge benefit to the Penguin Group. The agent of Fan Wumian's "Dungeon & Fighter" online game can also bring Penguin a considerable amount of cash flow.
It is true that the Penguin Weibo project is currently in a loss-making state, but the market scale has been successfully cultivated.
If it weren't for the fact that domestic and foreign Internet companies all wanted to get a piece of the mainland's instant messaging and social market, affecting investors' confidence, the stock price might have been pushed up further.
The next international version of Penguin Weibo project has a total budget of US$3000 million in the next two years, which is equivalent to spending more than HK$ million each year to test the waters.
Even if the entire plan of going overseas to Silicon Valley to grab the market fails completely, the loss will not cause any serious damage to the Penguin Group.
After considering all this, he realized that he had not held it back, and the direction of development had not deviated too much. He had simply added some channels to monetize users. Fan Wumian put his heart back in his stomach.
The family office is located on the 16th floor.
Climbing up a few more flights of stairs is the large sea view apartment that Fan Wumian rented when he moved out of his home.
I still remember climbing the stairs to meet Feng Ying'er. It feels like it was a long time ago. Now that the lease has expired, the apartment has probably been rented to someone else.
Zuo Ziyan went to study in the UK, and Zhuang Muxi has returned to the Central Conservatory of Music.
Feng Ying'er was filming in the United States and would often send him photos from Miami, mostly selfies, and would often invite Fan Wumian to come over and play.
After immigrating to Australia with her parents and living there for a few years, Feng Ying'er was able to film "The Piano Tuner" without having to find someone else to dub the film. The male lead was chosen to be the handsome actor Chris Pine, and his salary was only $20.
Chris Pine is not famous yet. He only gained a little fame after filming "The Princess Diaries 2004: Royal Engagement" in 2. In his previous life, he had acted in the new version of "Star Trek" movie that Fan Wumian liked very much. If he can make a name for himself next, it will help boost the sales of DVD discs.
In fact, during the casting stage, Paramount would prefer to find a leading actor with box office appeal. However, Fan Wumian believed that a movie like "The Piano Tuner" was more suitable for a small investment with a big return, and it would be better to spend the budget on shooting and publicity.
Judging from the results, it is obvious that Paramount gave in. After all, Fan Wumian is indeed very good at making a small profit with a big investment and creating a box office dark horse.
My girlfriends are not around, the sky is high and the sea is vast, letting the birds fly freely.
On the way to the Sapphire Blue Music Studio, Fan Wumian sent a message to Guo Biting, writing
——"Sorry, I was busy just now. I was planning to ask you to shoot some print ads for Valentino. The overall style is in line with the brand image. Don't sell me out. Just keep it to yourself and let the company contact you when the time comes."
The company's internal resources are limited, and with a total of 9 members in a group of alluring girls, it's inevitable that there will be an uneven distribution of members.
The message has just been sent.
After just two or three minutes, Guo Biting, who seemed to be inseparable from her phone, immediately replied:
"I understand~Thank you, boss!"
Probably because she was afraid that the conversation would run out, Guo Biting quickly sent another text message: "Is it an ad for women's bags or clothes?"
If it is a guy they are not interested in, girls tend to be very frugal with their words, which is so cold.
Based on Fan Wumian's experience as a veteran, he knew that the other party was very positive. He then typed back:
"I'm not sure either. Let's see what suits you. Maybe we can take a photo of the clothes and bags together."
This time it was a while later.
Guo Biting sent another message, writing:
"I've always wanted to thank you, how about I treat you to a meal? It's just right for an interview, I'll bring you the photos I took recently~~~"
"."The so-called interview is obviously an excuse.
Seeing the little white rabbit so eager to put it into the mouth of the big bad wolf, Fan Wumian took a deep breath and her figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
Some people think she is beautiful, while others think she is just average.
Since her debut as a member of an idol group, she has always been very popular on Penguin Weibo, frequently appearing on the hot search list. She is also called "Little Zhiling" by the Taiwanese media, which shows that most people like her.
Her mixed-race facial features, coupled with the temperament of a fashionable internet celebrity and young model, are good-looking without any aggression. She gives people a feeling of youth, easy control, and a desire to be protected. Countless men like this, and Fan Wumian is no exception.
After wavering for a few seconds, he typed:
"Okay, how about tonight? Send me the address and I'll send a car to pick you up. Keep a low profile."
-----------
at the same time.
Guo Biting is resting in the dormitory provided by Mandou Model Company.
She had never lacked suitors in the past, but this was the first time in her life that someone had taken the initiative. When she saw that Fan Wumian had accepted her invitation, she was so excited that she jumped up on the spot.
Worried that her teammates would hear her movements, the 22-year-old girl covered her mouth and laughed secretly, lying on the bed and continuing to reply to messages -
"Okay~~Which restaurant do you like?"
soon.
Guo Biting saw the text message, which read:
"I'll arrange it. Let's eat on my yacht. You have so many male fans. If someone sees us, someone will put a sack in my hand and beat me up."
Without thinking about other issues, the girl was busy looking at herself in the mirror and tidying herself up. She only thought that she was worthy of being the boss and looked forward to visiting the luxurious yacht that was popular on the Internet.
Take a shower, change clothes, and go out to the barber shop in the afternoon to get your hair done.
The closer the agreed time got, the more nervous she became, worried that she might say something wrong or some other unexpected thing might happen.
A single man and a single woman went to have dinner on a yacht. Guo Biting was not too worried. She felt as nervous as if she had won the lottery and was about to cash in the prize.
Girls who are good-looking usually like to find handsome guys as boyfriends. When she first debuted, she had a low-key relationship with Taiwanese actor Chen Bolin for a while, but the relationship ended due to lack of common topics. In the past two or three years, she has met several ambiguous objects, but they have not officially been together.
When she met other men before, she would always subconsciously compare them with her first love, Chen Bailin. However, this time she met Fan Wumian, who was better in all aspects. Her emotional wounds were healed instantly, and she lamented that the old must go before the new can come.
5 o'clock in the evening.
After she contacted the driver on the other end of the phone, she went to the roadside, got into a black business car, and was taken to the yacht marina.
After getting on the boat, I saw Fan Wumian sitting on a rattan chair with a copy of "Hedge Fund Handbook" in his hand. He looked very serious and was indeed immersed in studying.
Holding the Valentino rivet bag she just bought in the afternoon, Guo Biting walked up to him in high heels, smiled brightly and waved to say hello:
"Hi, husband."
Murphy's Law has come true.
The more you fear accidents, the more likely they are to happen.
I originally wanted to call the boss, but I was so nervous that I accidentally said what was in my heart.
For a moment, Guo Biting's expression suddenly froze, and she wanted to jump off the deck and end it all.
Fan Wumian was also stunned. He looked Guo Biting up and down and said jokingly:
"You look quiet and gentle, but I didn't expect you to be so impatient. At least you should eat a few bites to fill your stomach before you confess to me."
Feeling socially dead, Guo Biting frantically waved his hands and stammered:
"No, no, no! I wanted to call you boss, but I called you the wrong name!"
Fan Wumian continued to tease her, smiling and raising his eyebrows, saying, "I understand."
"."
She was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to do, especially when she saw Pu Jiajing trying to hold back her laughter until her shoulders twitched. Guo Biting wanted to just jump into the sea. Her entire delicate face turned pink at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Fan Wumian put down the book in his hand and said:
"It's really okay. There are so many girls who are greedy for my body, and you are not the only one. Aren't there many fans online who call me that? I made a last-minute dinner appointment tonight, so I only went to the restaurant to pack up a few dishes. The taste may not be that good, so just make do with it."
Following the steps he gave, Guo Biting changed the subject:
"The scenery here is so beautiful. Thank you, boss, for arranging an opportunity for me to shoot a commercial."
