Chapter 148 Image Building

(Thanks to the reward of the XX brothers, the general manager of the oil party, I dare not write deeply on the topic of politics, not the superficiality of the old demon.) Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info everyone understands, otherwise, you will be warned again. )

Since Singapore's independence, family politics has been implemented, with two generations, the old and the young, firmly controlling everything in Singapore. Supposedly, this state of politics is two different styles that run counter to Western liberal democracy. However, because the West needs such a nail wedge with the Chinese as the main body in Asia, it has received strong support from various Western countries.

Although Zhou You doesn't understand politics, he has to get involved more or less in this life, and he has also gone from a political idiot to old Volando's advice, and now he has a glimpse of the door.

He pursues great freedom, so he never wants to get involved too deeply, knowing that politics is a kind of peace, and he only needs to ensure that his interests are not infringed.

Now Zhou You has become a world-class celebrity, and on this year's Forbes list, Zhou You's assets are also $68 billion, surpassing Bill Gates's $20 billion.

He has become a symbol among the Chinese and a representative figure in Singapore. Therefore, even if he no longer likes politics, he must appear at the enthronement ceremony of the young master.

After returning to Singapore on August 10, he visited the old boss on the evening of the trip, and after he returned, he had a long talk with the young boss. The two of them had an open and honest exchange in various aspects such as politics, economy, development, and prestige.

For Zhou You, who is now leaving behind big and small affairs, but going to make a movie, the original young head is not very agreeable. But there were many more elites under him than Zhou You, so he quickly understood Zhou You's true thoughts.

For Zhou You, he became the richest man in the world at the age of 24 and reached the peak of his life in six years. What he needs now is to lay a solid foundation, and what he needs now is to shift everyone's attention from the amount of his capital to him personally.

In the past, Zhou You still needed Taoguang to be obscure, but now Zhou You needs to really establish his own personal charm, and he wants to become the biggest star among everyone, so he must enrich his image from all levels.

This pirate captain is very much in line with his personal positioning, which is why Zhou You will leave a lot of things behind to play this role. Because such a vicious, ruthless, domineering, and ferocious pirate king can make many forces or governments that have thoughts about Zhou You seriously consider the fate of offending him.

This is the purpose of traveling, in contrast, the management of the company, when he has many helpers to deal with, does not need him to work hard.

Zhou You's personal positioning is that of a commander who formulates strategy, not a general who goes into battle in person. If his career is regarded as a kingdom, then he is a real king, who has ever seen a king still need to do specific things himself!

Therefore, the young head is now very supportive of Zhou You's "not doing business", and he is willing to pull Zhou You on his boat and help Zhou You in the same boat.

And Zhou You also needs such a powerful natural ally, he and the young master are complementary allies in different fields, and the two of them will benefit both, so of course he will not refuse the alliance.

Moreover, the natural closeness of traveling to the mainland can also become a buffer between the young head and the mainland.

Singapore is a small country that has been able to gain a foothold in Southeast Asia because of the support of Western forces. So, even though most of the people in Singapore are Chinese, they must sit on the side of the West.

This is the political balance, but also the sorrow of a small country, because most of the country's economy itself is based on the West.

At the enthronement ceremony on August 12, Zhou You, who had a big shaved head, and his three beautiful wives attracted countless cameras, and he even surpassed the young head as the protagonist.

But for this, the young head has no opinion, because what politicians need is not exposure, they really need to be low-key and high-profile.

At the press conference the next day, Zhou You, together with Baidu, Tencent, and Tmall, also announced in a high-profile manner that they would build the Southeast Asian headquarters of the three companies on Blarney Island, becoming a new type of science and technology park in Singapore.

At the same time, all three companies will officially enter the Southeast Asian market, and will unite the Internet world in ASEAN and the mainland to establish a stable business circle.

Affected by them, the next day, Google's stock, which had just gone public, fell slightly. However, Larry Page also announced that he and Baidu had reached a number of cooperation in search engines, bringing Google's stock back to the $60 billion mark.

Yes, it is not yet the end of the year, and Google's market value has exceeded $60 billion, which is more than $20 billion compared to the previous life, when Google's market value rose to $40 billion at the end of the year.

At this time, 5 percent of the stock was worth $3 billion, and a few months ago, Zhou You only earned $1.75 billion, a difference of nearly double.

To be honest, Zhou You's wealth is increasing every minute, and even the best accountant can't figure out how much money Zhou You has now. But some aspects that can be calculated clearly, such as the stocks in his hands and the shares of listed companies, are enough to make everyone unreachable.

Wal-Mart, Apple, Google, the shares of these three companies alone are worth $20 billion. If you count the Tmall shares that are exchanged for shares with Wal-Mart one-to-one, Zhouyou's assets will increase by 30 billion.

In addition, there are shares in Tencent and Baidu, shares in Sands Group and UFC, shares in Singapore's World Island, investment in hotels and casinos in Spain, investment in film and television parks and cinemas in the mainland, and more assets for Zhou You.

Another major part is the 20 percent stake in Colombia's nearly $50 billion investment, although Zhou You only used $4 billion in investment, or bank loans, but now the 20 percent stake is asking for $15 billion, and countless institutions are willing to take over.

Since 2003, the world's energy and minerals have ushered in a leap forward, and the prices of various raw materials have nearly doubled. But it's clear to all that this is just the beginning.

Because of the strong demand in the mainland, as long as it is the raw materials needed by the mainland, the price will rise. This general trend cannot be changed, because the water in this industry is too deep.

In his previous life, Zhou You was the captain of a cargo ship, and he did the work of transporting various ores. So he is very clear about the development trend of this industry, and knows that this price increase will continue to rise until 2013.

But he is only a transportation party, he doesn't understand this industry at all, and the relationship between this industry is the stability of a country, so he just wants to intervene, and he doesn't have the ability.

The only thing he can do now is to affect Colombia's crude oil and ore exports, but that won't do much for the world's price hikes.

What's more, Zhou You also knows that although the mainland has been severely exploited, it has also benefited a lot from this development and has become the world's second largest economy. He didn't want to let his butterfly affect the result.

Zhou You stayed in Singapore for a week, and agreed with Baidu and Tencent on the priorities for the next period of work. He also met with representatives of the Ministry of Commerce from all over the world to invite investment, and met with important figures from several countries in Southeast Asia. Because in the next stage, Baidu, Tencent, and even Tmall, if they want to enter their market, they must have a good relationship.

Blarney Island became overcrowded for a while, not only because of the representatives who meet with them every day, but also because of the new wave of construction on the island.

After the transfer of all the naval bases, the planning department made a complete plan for the island. Zhouyou's base occupies the southwest, the marine police department occupies the south, Tmall occupies the east, while Baidu occupies the north, and Tengxun occupies the northwest.

In the middle of all the companies, not far from the headquarters of Forest City, an open kindergarten has been built in the woods. Long Long, who is already four and a half years old, and many school-age children of police family members and traveling headquarters employees have become the first batch of students in this kindergarten.

In terms of size, the kindergarten is small, with only a small amusement park, less than ten classrooms, and less than 20 teachers. However, it is a very high-standard kindergarten because almost every teacher here is an early childhood education expert hired from all over the world.

Because of this, the kindergarten has not yet been built, and it has received countless applications for admission, but Yan Fangqing still ruthlessly rejected those applications, and only allowed the children of the staff on the island to enroll in the future.

For this reason, Cai Xinying also made a special plea call to Zhou You, wanting to send her daughter to school. Although she and Yan Fangqing are good friends, they also know that the kindergarten is not large, and it really can't accommodate too many students.

But it becomes easier for Zhou You to open this mouth, because it is impossible for other people to ask Zhou You for this matter. Cai Xinying begged in front of Zhou You, of course he agreed, in fact, this was also Yan Fangqing's trick to Cai Xinying, so Zhou You was not afraid that Yan Fangqing would suspect it.

For this reason, Cai Xinying took advantage of her travel to Shangri-La to meet guests, and opened a special room to relive Zhou Youyuanmeng. Zhou You found that this woman is really getting more and more flavorful, not only because the house flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers!

The older she gets, the more charm she has, plus her white skin and beauty, her plump figure, and her seamless cooperation with Zhou You in bed, which makes Zhou You a little infatuated with her for a while.

"I'm going to Las Vegas tomorrow, and I'll be there for the next half a month, and if you have time, I'll go over and play for a few days."

She kissed Zhou You's chest excitedly. "Really?"

Zhou You nodded seriously, and she immediately hugged Zhou You and kissed again.

The higher the status, the more restrictions there are, and Zhou You now has reporters paying attention to almost every moment, and there is no chance at all if you want to go out and steal fun.

Besides, it is impossible for him to find those dishonorable women with his current identity, otherwise, it will be a big scandal, so he wants to play now. You can only develop goals in your own circle.

However, fortunately, his circle is now very large, and he has also invested in the film and television industry, so there are still many opportunities to pick up girls in the future.

On August 19, the crew's construction of the Black Pearl in the Nevada desert was completed, and now the cast is in place. The front half of the 20-meter-tall Black Pearl is a boat, and the back half is replaced by a trailer for the filming of the Black Pearl Shadow.

Zhou You also left Singapore and came to Las Vegas.

Because of following Paris, Zhou You of course stayed at the Hilton Hotel, instead of mixing with the crew, and Old Barron also arranged a helicopter for Zhou You to facilitate his trip.

Just after Zhou You checked into the Hilton Hotel, Cai Xinying also arrived in Las Vegas by plane and was arranged by Sanchez to live on the same floor as Zhou You.

However, as soon as Cai Xinying moved in, Paris got the news through Barron Sr. Knowing that the other party still had a daughter with her, Paris was a little nervous.

But Barron's subsequent words eased her again. "According to my investigation, this Miss Jimmy Tsai is a good friend of Elizabeth, but Elizabeth should not know about their relationship."

"Grandpa...... You know I'm not focusing on these ......."

Barronha laughed. "Don't worry, her daughter isn't Evan's, they should just be lovers."

"Then, grandpa, I hope to put her in the presidential suite of me and Evan, and on my territory, I can declare my sovereignty to her."

"As you wish, my darling."

As long as she is not the illegitimate daughter of Zhou You, Paris is relieved, because they all know that Zhou You's lust can't be restricted, not to mention, the restricted Zhou You is much more restrained. As for one or two long-term or short-term lovers, as long as they don't threaten the status of the three of them, they won't care too much.

After hanging up the phone, Paris came to Zhou You, who was listening to the director's storyboard shooting arrangement, and whispered, "My dear, since you are here, why don't you tell me." ”

Zhou You didn't care that Paris knew about it, otherwise, he wouldn't have let Sanchez arrange it directly. But she didn't want Yan Fangqing to know, after all, Cai Xinying and Yan Fangqing were also friends, and Yan Fangqing would not be able to accept this kind of betrayal, and she would sulk with him again. "I'll get back to that, but I hope you don't talk to anyone about it now."

"Because of what?"

"Because I won't be with her for long, you just think it's a secret between the two of us."

As soon as she heard this, Paris was satisfied, because she ate this set. Their acquaintance and getting along with each other began with the killing of Hu Mo, a secret between the two people. She enjoys such a little fun with Zhou You, of course, this is also because she doesn't care about these at all, and even wants to pull her friends into Zhou You's bed.

After meeting with the director, they got on the bus back to the hotel. Paris snuggled into Zhou You's arms and said evilly, "I'm going to play with her tonight to see if she's as charming as you say." ”
