Chen Xueqian returned to New York after a tour of Harvard University. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the next time, Chen Xueqian will have a meeting with Karl Icahn, and then he will fly back to China with Bai Feifei.
For this meeting with Icahn, Chen Xueqian made a lot of preparations in advance. Approaching 2006, the international situation is turbulent, and the price of crude oil is rising all the way, Chen Xueqian is ready to talk to Icahn about how to achieve maximum profits in such a situation.
In addition to international crude oil futures, Chen Xueqian also intends to reveal to him some information about the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States. For the financial crisis that swept the world, Chen Xueqian also wanted to take the opportunity to make a windfall.
And these two things are not Chen Xueqian's play, which requires too much control, and Chen Xueqian can be said to be ignorant of financial manipulation. But Carl Icahn is different, as long as Chen Xueqian is guiding in the general direction, in micro-operations, the richest man on Wall Street is definitely the industry leader.
The meeting between Chen Xueqian and Karl Icahn was extremely confidential. Not only is the outside world ignorant of what they are talking about, but even fund insiders don't know much about it.
As soon as Chen Xueqian left his office in Carl Icahn, the future richest man on Wall Street gathered his team and began to gather various layouts and information.
At this time, Chen Xueqian was already on the plane to China.
In the first-class cabin of Air China, Chen Xueqian was very silent from the moment he got on the plane.
After the plane took off, Bai Feifei couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" I haven't spoken since I came back from the Icahn Fund. ”
Hearing Bai Feifei's inquiry, Chen Xueqian turned his head and said, "I'm thinking about how much money I have now. Recently, angel investment has spent a lot of money, and I feel that my funds are a little tight. ”
"You don't have enough money? "Twilight 2" will be released soon, and the global box office of this movie is expected to be no less than $700 million, and your private income will not be less than $200 million. What's more, there are also movies such as "Despicable Me 2" and "The Hangover 2" that have been released one after another. Bai Feifei felt that he was about to be hit by this little man.
"I want to buy two private jets, and then CC Technology has been burning money lately. Plus I just invested another 1 billion in Cal Icahn this time, and I'm really poor now! ”
In fact, Chen Xueqian didn't tell Bai Feifei that he didn't really have no money, but after meeting Zuckerberg this time, he couldn't help but think that he was worth more than $50 billion in later life.
Chen Xueqian compared his own income, and suddenly found that he had been tossing for so long, if he didn't count the money from venture capital, his net income couldn't be compared with the other party. This makes me feel a little disappointed for a while.
For this reason, Chen Xueqian deliberately estimated the value ratio between him and the other party when Zuckerberg officially took off.
Not surprisingly, Zuckerberg will enter the list of the world's richest people in 2012. He should have been worth $30 billion at that time. Mr. Chen is expected to take about 10 percent of Facebook, more than one-third of Mr. Zuckerberg's.
Chen Xueqian's investment income in other areas is expected to be mainly in Alibaba and Penguin, as well as JD.com and NetEase, and with his stake in these companies, the total assets are expected to exceed Zuckerberg's by 2012.
Of course, this is only part of his assets.
In the future, it is difficult for Chen Xueqian to estimate how much wealth Carl Icahn will create for him, but it will not be less than $10 billion.
In this way, by 2012, he is likely to become the richest man in the world. In this regard, Chen Xueqian suddenly felt a little illusory.
In his previous life, he was just a poor diao who fought every day for mortgages and car loans, but in this life he may become the richest man in the world, which is a little untrue no matter how you look at it.
However, 2012 is still early, and it is useless to think about it now. What Chen Xueqian was thinking about at this time was what he was going to do next.
The reason why he is in a hurry to return to China this time is mainly because he can't rest assured that he can't go to CC Technology.
In 2007, Apple was about to launch their first iPhone, and Chen had to complete a prototype before that in order to get as many patents as possible. In that way, when Apple will use the patent right as a big killer weapon in the future to make things difficult for its opponents, he will have room to resist.
As Bai Feifei broke the silence, Chen Xueqian quickly put aside his previous nonsense and chatted with Bai Feifei instead.
While they were talking and laughing, a flight attendant walked up to Chen Xueqian and asked very carefully, "Are you Chen Xueqian?" The director of "Hurricane Rescue"? ”
Hearing the flight attendant's question, Chen Xueqian turned his head and saw that the other party's delicate cheeks were covered with redness, and when he looked over, he didn't even dare to make eye contact with his eyes.
Looking at the other flight attendants not far away, who also seemed to be paying close attention to this side, Chen Xueqian suddenly showed a smile full of affinity.
"Yes, I am Chen Xueqian!"
Hearing Chen Xueqian's affirmative answer, the expression on the other party's face suddenly became more excited, but at this time she was working, and it was not easy to show too obviously, so she hurriedly tried to restrain her emotions, and tried her best to keep calm and said, "Can you help me sign a name?" I'm a fan of yours! ”
For this kind of request, Chen Xueqian naturally would not refuse, so he generously met the other party's request. Seeing this, several other flight attendants immediately hurriedly ran over.
After satisfying the needs of several people one by one, Bai Feifei had an air conditioner to mock him: "I can't see that you are quite popular!" ”
In this regard, Chen Xueqian shrugged his shoulders and said, "It will be more famous!" ”
Bai Feifei suddenly came to the point of interest and said, "What? What are your plans? ”
Chen Xueqian smiled mysteriously, and then replied under Bai Feifei's curious question: "I am going to translate all my works into Chinese, and then start public sale." ”
"You've finally figured it out? Didn't you always say that domestic piracy was too rampant, and publishing a Chinese version was equivalent to making money for pirates? Bai Feifei still agrees with Chen Xueqian's decision, but she still doesn't forget to tease Chen Xueqian. Teasing Chen Xueqian has become a habit for her at some point.
"In fact, I was reluctant to publish the Chinese version before, because I didn't want to have too much influence in China. So I gave up! Now that there is no such concern, there is naturally no need to deliberately avoid it. And the original release of the Chinese version was not really for sales. I just need more visibility. ”
Regarding Chen Xueqian's novel, the Chinese version of the anime has actually been completed a long time ago, and after recruiting Zuo Xin, a girl with extraordinary talent in translation, into the company, Chen Xueqian asked her to start translating her own works.
Even in his coffee shop, these works have long been placed on the shelves. And after Chen Xueqian's identity was completely exposed this time, Chen Xueqian pushed all his books to the market.
By the time Chen Xueqian and Bai Feifei were talking about this topic, the first printed books had already sold out. However, compared to the sales of genuine copies, piracy is undoubtedly much stronger.
It's just that although Chen Xueqian can't make a lot of money because of his few books, his fame at this time is not the same as before.
Among young people, Chen Xueqian's comics and novels are highly sought after because of his Chinese identity. Among them, "Attack on Titan" and "One Punch Man", which have anime, are the most popular.
As for "The Hunger Games" and "Twilight", which sold out of stock in the United States, the sales in China were relatively average. There's no way, compared to this kind of novel, domestic girls still prefer romance novels like the domineering president falling in love with me.
However, the sales are not ugly, and they can basically squeeze into the top 10 of China's bestseller rankings. However, the gold content of this ranking itself needs to be verified, so Chen Xueqian doesn't care much about it.
In the more than ten air journeys from the United States to Jinling, because of Chen Xueqian's identity, they can be said to have enjoyed a super luxury treatment.
When their flight landed in Jinling, several flight attendants rushed over as soon as they got off the plane and asked someone to help them take pictures with Chen Xueqian.
After getting rid of these unusually enthusiastic flight attendants, Chen Xueqian took Bai Feifei out of the customs together.
It was Gu Qingying who came to pick her up, and Chen Xueqian and the others saw her standing there with a quiet face, followed by several black-clothed bodyguards beside her. The combination of several people is very eye-catching in the crowded terminal.
When Chen Xueqian and the two walked up, Gu Qingying suddenly showed a big smile like a hot soup, and hugged Bai Feifei fiercely in the countless envious eyes around him.
For a while, the scene of two beauties falling in love with each other made many men sigh and shout that it was too wasteful.
As for Chen Xueqian, he was completely left out by the two girls at this time, and he couldn't help but say with resentment after no one cared about him for a long time: "You guys are too favoritism, even if you don't have a big hug, at least you should ask, even if you take a look!" ”
Listening to his complaints, Bai Feifei and Gu Qingying glanced at him at the same time with a tacit understanding, and then put him aside again.
Yes, it's really a look! Chen Xueqian couldn't help but be angry.
The two girls were intimate for a while, and then walked to the parking lot under the escort of a kind of bodyguard.
On the way, Gu Qingying and Bai Feifei hugged each other, and then took advantage of their best friend's inattention, stretched out a hand, and gently shook Chen Xueqian, who was depressed.
This scene fell in Bai Feifei's eyes, and she shook her head, her best friend, it seems that she is going to be eaten to death by this bastard boy in this life. But think about yourself, why not.
The group soon came to the parking lot, and Gu Qingying came to pick up Chen Xueqian in a Unimog RV this time. A few people sat in the car, and the bodyguards sat in several BMWs, firmly guarding the RV in the middle.
When there were no outsiders in the car, and the driver's seat of the car was separated from the back, Chen Xueqian asked at this time: "Why do you bring such a bodyguard, is there anything going on recently?" ”
Gu Qingying really glanced at Chen Xueqian with amusement, and then said, "Don't you know the mess you caused yourself?" ”
"What? I'm very well-known right now? Hearing Gu Qingying say this, Chen Xueqian hurriedly asked.
"It's not very well-known, it's very high, and his work as a Chinese has won the most popular manga award in Japan, the sales champion of light novels, and the first place in the bestseller list per share. He is also an internationally renowned director who has set the highest box office record for Korean film and television. This series of achievements has simply blinded the eyes of countless people, and now you are simply the savior of the Chinese literary world. Even if someone wins a Nobel Prize in Literature tomorrow, it may not have as much influence among young people as yours. ”
For Gu Qingying's analogy, Chen Xueqian is still very self-aware, and the main reason for his influence is actually because of too much exposure recently.
After a while, the heat of this matter will gradually pass, and his popularity will naturally drop.
However, even if his popularity declines again, he will not be forgotten by people, because his international reputation is too exciting for the Chinese people at the moment.
"You'd better not go to school easily these days, that might get you in some trouble!" Gu Qingying saw Chen Xueqian and said thoughtfully.
In this regard, Chen Xueqian shook his head a little weakly: "It seems that I have indeed made a big deal this time." ”
"That's because you've never been an ordinary person. As long as your extraordinaryness is made public, this day will come sooner or later. Bai Feifei comforted softly on the side at this time.
"Unfortunately, I still have to go to school, even though my college career has effectively ended. But I promised to make a promotional video for the school. ”
Chen Xueqian was silent for a while, and then spoke again.
Gu Qingying didn't say anything this time, basically as long as Chen Xueqian decided something, she would rarely raise objections.
Looking at Gu Qingying as always, Chen Xueqian endured for a while, and finally asked, "Your father's business?" ”
Hearing Chen Xueqian take the initiative to mention it, Gu Qingying shook his head, "This matter is my father's mistake first, he behaved so realistically, naturally you can't blame him for taking him into the army." ”
"But..."
"Nothing!" Gu Qingying directly interrupted his words, only to see her look at Chen Xueqian with a serious face and said: "You are my younger brother, in my eyes, you are as important as my parents, I think it is good that he is transferred out of Jinling this time, at least you will not have such conflicts in the future." ”
For Gu Qingying's words, Chen Xueqian couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in his heart. In this life, it is really a blessing to meet such a person who treats you sincerely.
Chen Xueqian and the others needed jet lag, so Gu Qingying sent them directly to the CC Technology headquarters, where there was also an extremely luxurious residence, it can be said that it was like a private kingdom of Chen Xueqian, with almost everything.
In the future, Chen Xueqian is also ready to continue to expand this business empire that belongs to him. One day, this place will become another Silicon Valley of the world.
He wants to create an industrial miracle belonging to China here! (To be continued.) )
