Volume 2 Commodity Society Chapter 250 The Little God of Wealth
Karina was of course very surprised that Chen Feng wanted to retaliate against the FBI. You must know that the prestige of the FBI is well-known in the world, and it is almost similar to the Dongchang in the Ming Dynasty in China, which makes people smell and change. This little boss of his own dares to go against such a country's secret services, this is ...... It's a bit irrational.
"Boss, with all due respect, if you insist on doing this, it will cause dissatisfaction with the US government and the FBI, and it will be very detrimental to the future development of our Huateng. And you may personally be retaliated against by them. So, it's very irrational for you to do that. Karina hesitated for a while before she expressed her opinion, because Chen Feng was not only her boss, he was kind to her, but also her friend, and she didn't want her little boss to suffer misfortune. In her opinion, although Chen Feng is very rich, he has no strength to resist in the face of the powerful US government and the FBI.
Of course, Chen Feng understood Karina's good intentions, but she obviously didn't understand her determination to take revenge this time, and the strength that her boss really relied on behind her.
"Karina, thank you for the reminder, but I have to do this. All you have to do is get the deal I tell you about, and in short, you want to expose all the scandals that the FBI can dig up, and let the world see what their department has always flaunted justice looks like. You will mobilize all the major media under our Huateng now, anyway, one is to try my best to expose the FBI scandal. Chen Feng said categorically.
"Okay. Boss, since you insist, then I will do what you say. However, I would like to warn you that if you do so, you will likely face counter-retaliation from the FBI. Karina said with some concern.
"Well, I know, don't worry, I'm mentally prepared, I'll be fine. ”
After talking to Karina about this, Chen Feng talked to her about a series of recent major moves in Huateng, mainly the acquisition of several TV stations in Europe, and the acquisition of shares in Time Warner. In addition, Huateng Group also has some investment in China, one of which is the Internet industry that Chen Feng is more concerned about.
First of all, in the second half of 2000, Huateng made venture capital in Baidu, and the capital was not very much, only one million US dollars, which is not that Huateng was reluctant to spend money, but the founder of Baidu did not want to accept a large amount of investment at the beginning of the business, and the million US dollars invested in the shares were also very low, accounting for only 10%. After this first investment, at the beginning of this year, Baidu carried out a second financing due to its own development needs, and this time, Huateng directly invested 10 million US dollars, and finally expanded its stake to 42%. Become its largest shareholder.
At the end of 2000, when the Internet winter came, Shanda Network fell into a very difficult time, under the name of Chen Feng, Karina specially instructed the investment manager Rodst to send warmth to Shanda Company, a one-time venture capital of 20 million US dollars, accounting for 46% of Shanda Network's shares. At the same time, Chen Feng instructed FENGSAI's South Korean Actoz company to cooperate with Shanda to transfer the domestic agency of its online game "Legend" to Shanda Network, and with the matchmaking of Huateng, the two sides hit it off, and Shanda purchased the exclusive agency of "Legend" in China for $300,000. As for the contradiction between Shanda and China.com, Chen Feng also made a good prediction, and let Huateng acquire most of the shares of China.com in advance, so that Huateng obtained a controlling stake in China.com, and also indirectly obtained a controlling stake in Shanda, because China.com invested 3 million yuan in Shanda in 2000 and was a major shareholder of Shanda. As a result, Shanda and China.com did not have a disagreement on the development of the online game industry, and eventually led the two major cooperative companies to part ways, but the two companies continued to work together to vigorously develop the domestic online game industry.
In this way, under Chen Feng's comprehensive net, the domestic Internet industry has almost been wiped out by Chen Feng, and it can be expected that in less than a few years, the huge profits brought by it will be able to recover all the capital he has sown in the past few years.
After talking to Karina, Chen Feng chatted with Cai Shu Qing about the Harry Potter industry not long ago, the first Harry Potter series of movies continues to sweep the world, so that Chen Feng's income from this is still growing.
In addition to this matter, Cai Shuqing also asked Chen Feng some more personal questions.
"Chen Feng, forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, are you the American singer who has been making a lot of noise these days?" Cai Shuqing is also a person who is more familiar with Chen Feng. And her daughter Dinah is a standard Long fan, and under the influence of her daughter, she also likes Long songs very much, especially the song "ThereYouwillbe" on the album is her favorite, which is completely comparable to the Titanic's theme song "Myheartwillgoon". Originally, she didn't watch the Grammy Awards this time, but at the request of her daughter and her love for the long song, she followed along. Looking at this, it is natural to think like Mengxue, suspecting that Chen Feng is Long, and then Long quickly became popular all over the world because of the parade of fans across the United States and yesterday's Los Angeles riots. This question has always been hidden in her heart, and now of course she asks it directly.
Chen Feng hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to tell her the truth, Cai Shuqing, as her agent, can be regarded as her own person, and she also knows a lot about her secrets, and she doesn't care about this secret that is not much of a secret now.
"You guessed it, I'm the long. ”
"Oh my God, you're really the long, this ...... This...... It's amazing...... Chen Feng, you are really a person who likes to make miracles, and I am very proud and proud to be your agent. I don't know, what would happen if Dinah found out about it? Mengxue is her aunt, and Long is her friend. Cai Shuqing said very excitedly.
Chen Feng immediately replied: "I hope you will help me keep this secret for the time being, there are not many people who know my true identity now." If it leaks out. I'm going to be burned. ”
Cai Shuqing smiled: "Okay then." Even though I'm sure Dinah can help us keep it a secret. However, I'd like you to send me some signed CDs, Dinah is obsessed with you right now. ”
"OK, no problem. Chen Feng readily agreed.
When I finished chatting with Cai Shuqing, it was almost five o'clock, and Wang Meixue came over to call for dinner.
Chen Feng and Hongye came to the restaurant together, and Grandpa Gan's family arrived.
"Xiao Feng, Momiji, I slept well yesterday. Chen Yufeng looked at the two of them with a smile, and most of this politeness was asked by Hongye.
"Okay! I slept soundly. Momiji hurriedly replied.
"Just sleep well, this time you and Xiao Feng will stay here for a while longer, just like your own home, just order it, it's okay." ”
"Hmm!" Momiji nodded obediently.
Wang Zhaoxiang also nodded kindly to Hongye and said, "Okay, the family is here, let's have dinner." ”
At the dinner table, after Chen Feng took a few bites of food, he persuaded Chen Yufeng: "Grandma, I only found out today that you have worked so hard to take care of the Yuhua Fund, or the Foundation will recruit some more people." You'll be right at home from now on. It's tiring to run around. ”
When Chen Yufeng heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said: "How to sit at home? Grandma is not as delicate as you think, I think your grandmother was also the 38 red flag bearer in the factory, and she was also very good at work." The manpower in the foundation is already enough, and it will cost money to recruit people in vain, so it is better to use the remaining money to invest in education and poverty alleviation. ”
Chen Feng was suddenly a little speechless.
Wang Meixue said: "Grandma, what money do you save for Xiaofeng's big money, he can sell hundreds of millions of dollars if he releases a record now." He's sure he has too much money to spend now. ”
Chen Yufeng glared and said, "I'm saving money for those children in the west." Your child has grown up with a golden key since he was a child, he has never suffered hardships, he has never been to the west, I don't know how miserable the children are living there, and your meal money and a drink may be able to make a child return to class. ”
Wang Meixue pursed her mouth and stopped talking, trying to pick up rice.
After Chen Feng swallowed a mouthful of food, he said: "Grandma, what my sister just said is right, the money I make now is really too much to spend, you don't have to save me money, this time I plan to give the foundation another 10 million US dollars." Besides, you shouldn't always think about saving money, and instead of recruiting more people to help, you will work hard yourself, which is really a bit inappropriate. Besides, there are more people in the foundation to help, and the scope and number of people we help the foundation will increase accordingly, and the money that should be spent will still be spent. ”
Chen Feng opened his mouth and sent 10 million US dollars, in the last month he had already remitted 10 million US dollars to the Yuhua Fund, Rao is a family like Wang Zhaoxiang, several people were also a little dumbfounded when they heard it, this 10 million US dollars is equivalent to nearly 100 million yuan at this time. Wang Ruiguo woke up after a while, and took the lead in echoing: "Xiao Feng is right, Mom, you still have to spend what you should spend, you can't just care about saving, how much can you save if you want to save?" Moreover, Xiao Feng is not short of money now, and has invested another 10 million ...... The scale of this foundation should be further expanded, and the scope of assistance and the people rescued should also be expanded accordingly. ”
Chen Yufeng stopped his chopsticks, looked at Chen Feng and asked, "Xiao Feng, you released a record in the United States this time, is it really like Xiaoxue said that you made hundreds of millions of dollars?"
Wang Meixue hurriedly replied: "Is this still fake? I saw it on the Internet yesterday, Xiao Feng is also long, and now he has sold nearly 30 million albums and records around the world, and each one is a dollar for him, which is 30 million US dollars, two US dollars is 60 million, 3 US dollars is 90 million, and 4 US dollars is ...... $120 million. Grandma, you probably don't know that Xiao Feng's albums in Europe and the United States are expensive. What's more, I heard that their company is going to double the issuance again. Chen Feng's album earns $100 million is the most conservative estimate, and it is likely to be 200 million, 300 million, or even more in the future......"
Seeing that Grandpa Gan's family, including Hongye, had a surprised expression, Chen Feng touched his nose a little embarrassed. is also guessed correctly by Wang Meixue, and it is conservatively estimated that he will definitely be able to make at least 200 million US dollars from this first album this time.
"Xiao Feng, I really doubt that you are the reincarnation of the God of Wealth, and you have made hundreds of millions of dollars by writing Harry Potter casually, and now you have a record, and you are also earning like this. If everyone in the world makes money as easily as you do, then the world is a billionaire. Among the several people, Ye Qian's expression was the most exaggerated, her eyes widened, and her face was full of envy.
"Alright, let's all eat. These things will be talked about after eating. Wang Zhaoxiang said majestically.
When everyone saw it, they all hurriedly bowed their heads to eat.
After eating, everyone stayed in the living room, watching TV and chatting.
"Xiao Feng, since you are so rich now, grandma is not polite, just rob the rich and help the poor once, your other 10 million US dollars, grandma accepted it for the Yuhua Fund, and also brought those rescued children in the west to thank you. Chen Yufeng was obviously in a very good mood at this time, looking at Chen Feng with a smile on his face.
Chen Feng pretended to be generous and smiled: "Grandma, if the Yuhua Fund is short of money in the future, just tell me directly." I plan to wait for the scale of Yuhua to expand this time, and I will inject capital again. ”
"Then thank you, little God of Wealth. Chen Yufeng smiled happily.
Wang Ruiguo had a different opinion, and said: "Mom, although Xiao Feng is rich, Yuhua Fund can't always eat his money, and if he squanders it like this, even if Xiao Feng has more money, he will squander it......"
Chen Yufeng was a little unhappy when he heard his son's words, and said dissatisfied: "You child, what is it called squandering? This is a good deed, a great thing to accumulate virtue for our family, and it is also a thing that contributes to the future development of our country, how can it be called squandering?"
Wang Ruiguo smiled bitterly: "Mom, haven't I finished talking yet? Like those more mature charitable funds abroad, they all have very professional operation teams. There is a special part of the fund's money for the investment of risk and small returns, so that the money spent can also be partially earned. This is the case with the Nobel Foundation, which we all know, and in the past 100 years of development, the foundation's funds have not decreased at all, not to mention, and have increased on a large scale. What I mean is this, if we want the sustainable development of the Yuhua Fund and the longevity of the Nobel Fund, we must hire a professional financial management team to take out part of the money from the foundation for investment, so that the foundation can make money, instead of just waiting for Chen Feng, the little god of wealth, to give blood to the foundation and throw money. ”
Of course, Chen Yufeng also knew about this matter, but he didn't pay attention to this aspect before.
"This mom also knows, but there is currently no reliable manager who specializes in financial management. Chen Yufeng said with some distress, in fact, she was mainly afraid of losing money, and the gains outweighed the losses.
Wang Ruiguo said with a smile: "Mom, what do you think of me? I can use my spare time for free to help Yuhua Fund make a stable investment." ”
"You!?" Chen Yufeng looked at his son, who is the CEO of a state-owned enterprise, with some suspicion, "Now that you are the CEO, you still have time to take care of my Yuhua?
Wang Ruiguo smiled a little bitterly: "You look down on me too much." Anyway, I'm also a top student who graduated from a prestigious university, and you know that I've always been interested in financial securities. If my father hadn't objected to it, I would have worked in the financial sector a long time ago, and I might be a billionaire now. And, as you know, I, the CEO of a state-owned enterprise, am very worry-free, and I usually have a lot of free time. Do you want to work for Yuhua as a part-time worker?"
Wang Zhaoxiang heard his son's complaining words, and said, "Let Ruiguo try it." Xiao Feng, what do you think?"
Chen Feng thought to himself, you said that you let him try, can I object? However, Chen Feng also knew that Wang Ruiguo was a person who had one thing to say, and he would not talk big. Moreover, it seems that his character is also quite upright, and he is the son of a high-ranking domestic official, but he can clean himself and love himself, not accumulate wealth, and be content with the status quo, which is really rare.
"I also agree, and I believe that my uncle will not talk about it casually, he must have the ability to do this. Chen Feng nodded.
"Oh well. You, the big boss, agreed, and of course I, a part-time worker, didn't object. Chen Yufeng reluctantly agreed, "However, I can tell you in advance, our Yuhua will take out a maximum of one million yuan for you to use in advance, and the profits will go to our Yuhua, and you will compensate for the losses if you lose them." ”
Faced with such an unreasonable overlord clause from his mother, Wang Ruiguo was speechless, and Ye Qian glared at him with a complaining face, it was purely a thankless task, and he actually recommended himself.
Wang Meixue was a little upset for her father and said: "Grandma, how can there be such a truth in the world, if you make it, it will be yours, and if you lose it, it will be my father's?"
Chen Yufeng glared and said, "You girl, what are you and mine?" This money belongs to Yuhua, and Yuhua's money can't lose a penny. If you lose it, of course, it will be your dad's. ”
Chen Feng saw Chen Yufeng's maintenance of Yuhua Fund so much, and proposed such an unfair clause to his son, and he was also secretly amused in his heart.
Hurriedly said, "Grandma, I think so." If you earn it, let your uncle take a cut, and I think it's two out of ten, so if your uncle loses it, of course, you have to compensate. ”
