Phuket is located in the south of Thailand, off the west coast of the Malay Peninsula in the Andaman Sea, it is the largest island in Thailand and the smallest province in Thailand, known as 'a pearl on the Andaman Sea' for its stunning scenery and rich tourism resources. In particular, the affiliated Koh Phi Phi is known as one of the top 10 most beautiful islands in the world, with soft white sandy beaches, tranquil blue seas, ghostly natural caves, and unspoiled natural features, making it stand out from more than 30 outlying islands around Phuket and become a hot tourist destination.
It is such a paradise on earth that welcomed a new pair of guests today - Gu Chen separated from the working group the next day after ending the promotion in Thailand, and did not even bring his assistant and agent, and secretly flew to Phuket by himself, and then took a boat from Phuket to the beautiful Phi Phi Island, and stayed at the most exclusive resort on the island, which he had booked when he was in Bangkok. About two hours later, Wang Guxian, who was wearing toad glasses and dragging suitcases, also came to the resort, and the room he stayed in was next door to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen was half-lying on the sofa, bored watching the same boring TV program, he didn't think it was young in his previous life, but now that he has been reborn, he found that the entertainment and pastime in this era are really lacking enough, if he goes out, it's okay to say, if he stays at home, in addition to watching TV, he really can't find any other way to pass the time, no wonder the ancients used to rest at sunrise and sunset, it's dark, there is not even electricity, what can you do if you don't sleep.
In fact, he didn't want to stay in the room, but he was worried that he wouldn't be there, and Wang Guxian couldn't find anyone when he came. Looking at the clock on the wall again, he had been two hours, and he couldn't help complaining in his heart about the backward communications of this era, although he had a big brother, he could only use it in Hong Kong, and it was better than a brick when he went abroad.
And Wang Guxian didn't even have a big brother, so much so that he couldn't even do the most basic thing in his previous life - a phone call to ask Wang Guxian where he was.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered Nokia, which dominated the global communication equipment market for more than ten years in later generations (Nokia itself is a large-scale cross-field company that designs papermaking, chemical, cable, pharmaceutical and other industries, and Nokia mobile phones were only one of the business departments at the beginning. By the mid-90s, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy due to too many industries, and the top management made a decision to sell all the traditional industries, leaving only the electronics division, that is, the Nokia mobile phone, thus beginning its glorious road) is now just getting started, if you can invest in a certain share, then the future return is absolutely astronomical. Because he vaguely remembers that Nokia's market capitalization exceeded $100 billion at its peak.
In addition to Nokia, there are Samsung and Apple, which have replaced Nokia as the hegemon of mobile communication devices. There are also Microsoft, the monopolist of operating systems, Baidu and Google, the Chinese and foreign hegemons of search engines, QQ, the instant messaging software with the largest number of registered users in the world, and Cisco, the world's largest Internet solution provider. Of course, some of these companies are still born, and the rest are still in their infancy or infancy, even if they are listed, the stock price is pitifully low compared to later generations, and it is definitely a good choice for long-term investment.
When he was first reborn, Gu Chen also had thoughts about these world-level big companies, but at that time, after all, he had just been reborn, and first, he had not fully adapted to the new environment. The second is that there is no capital around him, so the idea is not so strong. At this time, his mind restarted, but he couldn't bear it anymore, but the most basic thing to invest in these companies is money, but the nearly 10 million Hong Kong dollars he just paid dividends are ready to be used to invest in movies, how can there be extra money to invest in others. In fact, even if you don't invest in movies, it's a drop in the bucket to invest tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars in these companies.
Gu Chen suddenly found that he was very poor, he had never been so eager for money at that moment, but how could he get the most money in the shortest time? He first thought of the stock market crash. Because the impact of stock market crashes is generally very huge, and he also speculated in stocks in his previous life, he remembers several large-scale stock market crashes very clearly, such as the US stock market crash in 1987, which was called 'Black Monday', for example, in 1989, the Japanese stock market crash that caused nearly half of the country's wealth to disappear, and in 1997, the Southeast Asian stock market crash, which caused heavy losses to Asian countries, and so on.
However, the recent US stock market crash will not wait until October next year, and there is still more than a year to go, and he really can't wait that long. While he was thinking about it, the doorbell rang, and he hurriedly got up to open the door, and it was Wang Guxian standing outside the door: "You're here, come in." ”
The two sat down on the sofa, and Gu Chen saw that Wang Guxian's expression was a little unnatural, so he got up and made a cup of coffee: "Try the coffee here, I drank it just now, and I think it's pretty good." ”
In fact, it's no wonder that Wang Guxian is uncomfortable, although she likes Gu Chen in her heart, and she can feel that Gu Chen is interested in her, but after all, she hasn't made it clear yet, now that the two of them have come here alone for a vacation, there is naturally a kind of self-evident ambiguity, it would be really strange if she could act as if nothing happened, after all, this is the first time she has gone out alone with the opposite sex, and her heart is both nervous and happy.
"Have you figured out how to play?"
"I'm not familiar with this place, and I don't know what's interesting here, so you can just make up your mind."
Gu Chen thought for a while and said: "That's it, today is the 19th, we will return to Hong Kong on the 21st, today we will walk around the island first, enjoy the natural scenery of the island, and taste the special food here together in the evening." Tomorrow morning to the beach, pull up a deck chair on the beach to enjoy the warm sunshine, leisurely turn the pages of a book, and sip on a colorful freshly squeezed tropical fruit juice, it should be a wonderful feeling, by the way, than swimming? ”
Listening to Gu Chen's interesting words, Wang Guxian's nervous mood slowly relaxed, and he naturally talked more, and said with great interest: "Of course, I loved sports when I was a child, and I was a member of the school basketball team when I was in middle school, and basketball and swimming are my strengths." ”
"That's good, you shouldn't have any swimsuits, I haven't brought either, we'll go buy swimsuits when we go out." Tomorrow afternoon we will go diving, and there are canoes, anyway, there are a lot of sea sports that can be played here, but it is better to be able to play them all. The next morning, we returned to Phuket and from there took a flight back to Hong Kong. Well, I'm satisfied with this arrangement. ”
