Section 765 The new owner of the Dream Manor

I met a lot of celebrity friends at the charity banquet and got a lot of autographs, which was not a big gain, and even Michael's outfit from the auction was only good. 1——

The biggest gain of Li Jingyuan's trip to the United States is that he became friends with Michael and helped him relieve the trouble of insomnia, although it has not been completely cured for the time being, but it is only a matter of time.

Except for Li Jingyuan, no one will know that his action this time actually saved Michael's life, but for Li Jingyuan himself, being able to change history and let Michael continue to live in this world is the biggest gain.

Being able to save Michael's life made Li Jingyuan feel very happy and spiritually satisfied, and in terms of material, he also got a very good harvest.

Don't forget that at the very beginning, Michael invited Li Jingyuan for some reason. That's right, it's about Neverhouse in Santa Barbara County.

The value of this estate is high. Michael spent $50 million on the land in the early years, and then the basic value of the buildings and facilities inside the estate was about $100 million.

This 100 million US dollars is just the cost, counting the appreciation of the land in recent years, the value of this estate should be about 200 million US dollars.

The 200 million dollar item is obviously too valuable to be auctioned at a charity banquet, after all, the people who come to the banquet are all celebrities, although they are considered rich, but they are definitely not rich enough to spend 200 million US dollars.

Michael talked about this matter with Li Jingyuan in private, because the two were already friends, so although it was a little embarrassing to talk about it, Michael still didn't hide it.

When Michael asked Lee Kyung-won if he had accepted the idea of Neverland, Lee Kyung-won's mind began to struggle a little.

Li Jingyuan understands very well that the current Neverland no longer has the warmth of the past for Michael, and can only be regarded as a place that makes him sad. As a friend, Li Jingyuan really wants to help Michael solve this trouble.

But then again, the value of this problem is too high to be solved so easily.

200 million US dollars is not too much for Li Jingyuan, that is, about one-tenth of his annual income, but as a financial expert, the most important thing is impulsive consumption.

Whether or not to buy this manor depends on whether the manor can come in handy. As soon as he thought of this question, Li Jingyuan had a headache.

Judging from the value of the land alone, 200 million US dollars is not high, but the trouble is that there are so many buildings on this land. And Li Jingyuan personally is not satisfied with these buildings.

If you buy land elsewhere and the building is not satisfied or you can't use it, you can just demolish it, and at most it will cost some demolition fees. And when dealing with Fantasy Manor, whether this approach is appropriate or not needs to be carefully considered.

The buildings in Neverland are all modeled after scenes from fairy tales, and first of all, their appearance is already very special, and it would be a pity to tear them all down.

Secondly, the name Neverland itself has a special meaning, and Michael's original intention was to fulfill the wishes of the children, that is, the manor has a very special meaning in the eyes of the children.

It's not impossible to demolish the buildings in the manor, but it's best for Michael to make the decision, if the new owner makes the decision to demolish the manor after the manor changes hands, it will inevitably be evaluated as 'ruining the children's dreams' in the eyes of others. …,

However, as the builder of this manor, although Michael has lost his initial feeling for various reasons, it is still a little too difficult for him to make a decision to destroy this manor directly. Michael was reluctant to make such a decision, and the new owner was not easy to decide, so Li Jingyuan didn't want to take over the manor.

Having said so much, there are all negative reasons, and it seems that it is impossible for Li Jingyuan to take over this manor. But in fact, Li Jingyuan's final decision was different, he still bought the ownership of the manor from Michael, otherwise it would not be said that he had a big harvest.

So what kind of considerations did Li Jingyuan make this decision?

In fact, it is quite a coincidence that the reason why Li Jingyuan made this decision was just a phone call.

When Lee Kyung-won was talking to Michael, he suddenly received a call from South Korea, and the caller was none other than Jessica's girlfriend.

Since Li Jingyuan arrived in the United States, the two have not seen each other for about a week, and such a long interval must be very long for a couple who are in love.

The time in South Korea and the United States is almost reversed, with day here and night there. If you want to talk on the phone when both of you are awake, there are only two times of the day: early morning and dusk.

Such a time limit is nothing for Li Jingyuan, but it is more troublesome for Jessica. In the morning, Jessica couldn't get up, so naturally she couldn't make a call, and in the evening, she was often busy with work and couldn't find time to call, so it was so unfortunate that the two of them only contacted once in a week.

Li Jingyuan was thinking about solving Michael's insomnia at that time, and in this case, there was no phone reminder, so he temporarily forgot about Jessica.

After receiving Jessica's call this time, because Michael was still on the side, Li Jingyuan didn't say those too boring words, but just told Jessica that he was talking to Michael about things now, so he was going to hang up the phone temporarily and call back after a while.

Well, Lee Kyung-won completely forgot how special the name Michael is to others.

After hearing Li Jingyuan say Michael's name, Jessica first asked, and after confirming Michael's identity, she screamed for a while, and the voice was no worse than Vitas's dolphin sound. passed through the high pitch of the phone, and thundered Li Jingyuan enough.

Not only did Li Jingyuan thunder, but Jessica's shouting also attracted the attention of the group of girls around her, and after Jessica's explanation, the group of girls were all messed up.

There are many people, and then there is such a quarrel, the girls completely forget their fear, and they don't know who started the road, just like Li Jingyuan made a request, and they have the courage to talk to Michael to express their worship and respect in their hearts.

Although I don't know what the girls are talking to Li Jingyuan, but when he hears those chaotic excited voices, Michael can also feel what is happening on the other side of the phone. For the sake of Li Jingyuan's face, of course Michael would not refuse the girls' request, so he took the phone very generously and chatted with them.

Led by Jessica and Xiao T, two English speakers, the girls of the girls' generation all said a few words to Michael, and they also felt the liveliness and kindness of this group of girls from the phone, Michael smiled and invited them, let them come to the United States when they have free time, and he will entertain the girls to go to the dream manor to have a good time.

It was at this time that Li Jingyuan was reminded and made the decision to buy Fantasy Manor.

Li Jingyuan understands very well that Fantasy Manor is an ideal country for children that only exists in fairy tales, and why not for girls who love fantasy. …,

If you buy a dream manor, you can treat it as a good place for a vacation, and you can even directly transform it into a top-level resort, not only the girls of Girls' Generation can come here to relax, but Li Jingyuan's other friends can also come.

It can be opened not only to Korean artists, but also to other stars in Japan and the United States, Li Jingyuan thought through in a short period of time, this dream estate seems to be the most ideal base camp for himself to entertain friends, because it is not only high-grade enough, but also big enough, even if there are many friends at the same time, it can also be entertained.

Once you have a reason, those above-ground buildings are no longer a problem. Thinking about this, it is logical that Li Jingyuan will buy the Dream Manor, after all, the land of the Dream Manor is already worth 200 million, and the buildings on the ground are equivalent to giving it away for nothing, so there is no reason not to take advantage of it.

Seeing that Li Jingyuan changed his mind and was willing to buy the dream manor, Michael was also very happy. In addition, he has become friends with Li Jingyuan, and he has been helped to solve insomnia, which is the biggest headache for him, so he was so happy, he took the initiative to reduce the price for Li Jingyuan.

After negotiations, Li Jingyuan finally won the ownership of the Dream Manor at a price of 180 million US dollars, including the land, buildings, and various additional facilities became the property of Li Jingyuan's name.

Michael felt that he had gotten rid of a bad memory, Li Jingyuan thought that he had found an ideal 'living room', and the girls of Girls' Generation were even more excited, and they couldn't wait to come here to have a good time after hearing the news given by Li Jingyuan. All in all, Neverland has a new owner this time, which is a very happy thing for everyone.

------------------------------------------------------

Knowing that Li Jingyuan was going to buy the Dream Manor, the girls in Girls' Generation were directly messed up, and they were all clamoring to play as soon as possible.

But they can only be noisy, and the actual situation does not allow them to do that.

Not to mention that they still have a lot of work to do, and there is no 'American' time to waste right now. Although Li Jingyuan has become the owner of the Dream Manor, this does not mean that he can open the Dream Manor to entertain guests now.

If you change your owner, you naturally need a small renovation. Li Jingyuan spent so much money, of course, he hoped that this manor could fully meet his requirements, instead of just keeping it as it was and not changing at all.

Under Michael's introduction, Li Jingyuan found the designer who designed and built the Dream Manor, put forward his own requirements for him, and re-made some design drawings, and the renovation work of the Dream Manor began vigorously.

After the change of owner, the Dream Manor is no longer open to the public at any time, and the main hospitality object is not those kindergarten children, so some of the facilities and buildings in it have to be changed.

In terms of the blueprints, some too naïve facilities and buildings will be demolished in the manor, and some new buildings will be added, although it still maintains the style of the magical world, but the whole feeling is a little more mature.

The amount of work in this part is still quite large, and it is expected that the completion time will not be short, at least it will take about half a year to finish, that is to say, in this half a year, the dream manor is in a state of 'not accepting guests'.

The start of the Neverland, of course, can't be hidden from the news media, combined with Michael's statement that he wants to sell the Neverland some time ago, they came to an obvious conclusion, knowing the fact that the Neverland has changed to a new owner. …,

Both Michael and Neverland itself are very newsworthy, so after coming to a conclusion, these media outlets immediately began to dig into the bottom of the matter like sharks that smell blood.

Their first thought was to interview Michael, the original owner, but at this time, Michael was busy preparing for his comeback concert, so how could he bother to pay attention to these reporters, and the relationship between Michael and these media was not very good, let alone disclose the news.

Michael couldn't get the news there, so the media had to go to someone else. Blocking the door of the Dream Manor, they finally caught the designer who was in charge of transforming the manor.

Because of the signing of the agreement, the designer cannot directly reveal the identity of Li Jingyuan, the new owner, but the media still have a lot of skills, and finally pry out some useful information from his mouth.

"The New Owner of Fantasy Manor, the Mysterious Rich Man from the East", "Money Breaks the Fairy Tale", in a short period of time, these similar headlines appeared countless times in the newspaper, and after seeing these different speculations, countless people began to guess what kind of person bought Michael's Dream Manor, and the reason why this person bought the manor was because of what and what would become of the manor in the future.

Ordinary people can't guess the correct result, and the vast majority of Li Jingyuan's friends didn't guess this fact, except for Li Jingyuan, Michael, and the girlhood that Li Jingyuan had told him, only Maria, the middleman, guessed the real fact.

The new friends Li Jingyuan made at the charity banquet also had more or less the same answers as Maria, but they didn't get involved in this matter, and even if they had a guess, they didn't dare to make the final decision.

Some people are purely curious, and some people want to hug their thighs, so in the recent period, Li Jingyuan has also received a lot of calls to ask about the real situation.

I don't want to expose the real situation, at least I don't want to do that now, so Li Jingyuan can only answer these people vaguely, such a situation happens once or twice, and after more times, Li Jingyuan is a little impatient.

At this time, Michael's physical condition was much more stable, and there was no need for Li Jingyuan to continue to stay in the United States, while thinking about hiding and relaxing, he was thinking about rushing back to South Korea as soon as possible to prepare for Michael's Asian trip, Li Jingyuan took this opportunity to say goodbye to Michael and fled directly back to South Korea by plane.

After returning to South Korea, Li Jingyuan was really much easier, and the only people he had to deal with were the girls from Girls' Generation, and he agreed to let them play after the manor was renovated, and quickly sent these girls away.

Psychologically, I was a lot more relaxed, but physically I was a little tired. Although the time to the United States was not long, it also delayed several shootings, and after Li Jingyuan came back, he had to hurry up for the delayed program.

In addition to refilming these variety shows, Li Jingyuan also had to worry about Michael's concert preparations during this time, although there are three TV stations to be responsible for the specific work, but Li Jingyuan was given the identity of an agent by Michael, he not only has to convey Michael's requirements and negotiate with the TV station on various details, but also supervise all the preparations.

Not only did he have to undertake these tasks in the preparation process of the Korean station, but also in the preparation of the Japanese station, Li Jingyuan also had a lot of things to do.

There is a Yasu Akimoto in Japan, and in fact, Michael can leave everything to him. However, Yasu Akimoto and Michael are not friends after all, and there is no way to gain Michael's full trust.

If Yasu Akimoto is the 'general' in charge of the Japanese battlefield, then Li Jingyuan is the 'supervising army' personally assigned by Michael.

As everyone knows. The relationship between the 'general' and the 'supervising army' is often not very good, so Li Jingyuan also thought that he was likely to have some conflicts with Qiu Yuanyasu, but to his surprise, when he was doing the preparatory work, Qiu Yuankang's attitude was very low.

In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, Qiu Yuankang has been suppressed by Li Jingyuan, he never imagined that Li Jingyuan would be friends with a super big name like Michael, and subconsciously, he treated Li Jingyuan and Michael as characters of the same level.

Being treated so politely by Qiu Yuankang, Li Jingyuan felt a little speechless, he himself still understood very well, and his own experience in these jobs could not be compared with Qiu Yuankang.

Thinking of handing over everything to Qiu Yuanyasu, but Qiu Yuankang would ask for instructions from time to time, and even often took the initiative to ask Li Jingyuan to inspect the results of his work, and in desperation, Li Jingyuan could only run back and forth between South Korea and Japan.
