Chapter 1 Winning the lottery and returning home!
On the afternoon of August 3, 14, Puhai International Airport.
After getting off the plane, Zheng Wentong picked up his checked luggage and took Metro Line 2 to the city.
The house he rented in Puhai expired at the end of June, when he left Huafu Group to travel to Western Europe.
In the face of the concern of his family and friends, Zheng Wentong unified his rhetoric, saying that he had worked for a year after graduation and was not very happy, so he wanted to go out and relax.
Parents are not very supportive, thinking that the employment situation has not been good in recent years, and there is no need to give up a job as a programmer with a stable income.
Zheng Wentong couldn't explain it to his parents, so he didn't explain. Because he had been a yard farmer in Puhai for eight years in his previous life, he had had enough of it.
So Zheng Wentong, who was reborn for one or four years, fired his project manager as soon as possible, and he didn't want to stay in the company for even a minute.
The hateful-looking middle-aged man roared at Zheng Wentong, "What do you think this place is?" Come and go if you want, the project you participated in has not been developed, who will be responsible for the losses caused to the company? ”
Zheng Wentong has seen the project manager grovel in front of the technical director and group leaders, and he feels more and more disgusted with him.
Some people are particularly arrogant and domineering in the face of their superiors.
He himself is used to being a dog, and he thinks that others are willing to be dogs, and he is used to calling people around. In the face of Zheng Wentong's prickly head, I feel particularly dazzling, this is a kind of hypochondriasis that must be treated!
The project manager clamored to pull Zheng Wentong into the industry blacklist and greet his peers, so that Zheng Wentong could not find a job in Pujiang New Area or even the entire Puhai City.
Zheng Wentong mocked, "I don't even want to do development, you still expect me to continue to be a code farmer and be exploited by unscrupulous bosses, do your spring and autumn dreams!" ”
"Sun Tzu! You remember it to the labor! When I return to Huafu Group, I will not be your colleague, and when I acquire the project you are responsible for, you will have the opportunity to call me Dad! ”
Before the words fell, the project manager almost got into a fight with Zheng Wentong in the office, and was finally pulled away by other colleagues.
Zheng Wentong, who was sitting on the subway, shook his head as he recalled the office conflict at the end of June, feeling that his behavior was childish.
If it were now, Zheng Wentong would use a better way to resign, but Zheng Wentong's current mood is very different from that in June.
After all, he now has a huge after-tax bonus of 105 million yuan lying in his ICBC card.
On July 9, in the semifinals of the World Cup in Brazil, Germany defeated Brazil 7-1.
With a prize of 2,800 euros for beating Germany and Brazil to advance to the semi-finals, Zheng Wentong bet on a local spinach company in Amsterdam with a multiplier of 6,500 times, and finally won a super jackpot of 18.2 million euros.
The tax rate on lottery winnings in the Netherlands is 29%, and the after-tax prize is 12,922,000 euros, equivalent to 105443520 yuan.
The news was reported by the domestic sports media with the headline "Dutch fans win hundreds of millions of prizes, and the winner of the grand prize is unusually low-key, refusing to accept all interviews." ”
At the same time, there was also a Dutch fan who paid 200 euros for a drunken win over Germany and Brazil 7-1 and received a prize of 1.3 million euros.
Because this story is more interesting, this fan gossip has become a hot search in China.
At the end of July, Zheng Wentong poured spinach to complete the prize redemption procedures, and then bought the fastest flight and flew back to Puhai directly.
Zheng Wentong booked a river-view room at the Peninsula Hotel, planning to rest in the hotel for one night, and then make plans after falling due to jet lag.
Rolls-Royce transfers from The Peninsula are available for a fee of 2400 one-way and 4500 round-trip from Puhai International Airport to the hotel.
Even if Zheng Wentong is now worth more than 100 million, he still feels that there is no need to spend this unjust money. He walked out of the East Nanjing Road subway station and walked to the hotel to check in.
As soon as he entered the suite, Zheng Wentong put his luggage aside and lay on the bed, motionless.
Looking at the spacious room, the large windows facing the first-line river view, and the marble bathroom, he felt that it was a bit of a waste to live alone in this kind of river-view room, and he would go to the terrace bar on the 14th floor to see if he could meet a beautiful woman.
Zheng Wentong was lying in the jacuzzi and soaking in the bath, almost falling asleep. He raised his left hand and looked at the time, it was almost seven o'clock, and he could go to the restaurant downstairs to eat.
On the day of the prize redemption, Zheng Wentong bought two Patek Philippe Nautilus watches in the Netherlands. A steel-shelled 5711A and a rose gold 5711R cost a total of 50,000 euros.
He is currently wearing a rose gold nautilus, and it is a dream to buy this watch.
Patek Philippe 5711R, size 40 mm, thickness 8.3 mm, large three hands, with date, screw-down crown, water resistance to 120 meters.
Medium in size, very thin, sporty, formal, it can be described as a model of luxury sports watches. It is powered by the Patek Philippe 324 automatic movement, which has a power of 45 hours and bears the Patek Philippe seal.
For watch lovers, Longines Concas - Omega Seamaster 300 - Rolex Green Water Ghost - Patek Philippe Nautilus, this is their upgrade route for changing watches, just like the glory of kings changing skins, but Zheng Wentong has realized the ultimate dream this time.
By the end of 21, the 5711A and 5711R of Nautilus announced the discontinuation of production, and the second-hand transaction price of the 5711 series, which was originally more than 200,000 yuan, exceeded one million.
As long as Zheng Wentong's two watches are kept for seven or eight years, the market price can exceed three million, which can be regarded as an early investment.
When buying a watch in the Netherlands, Zheng Wentong spent 400,000 yuan. Before entering the country, he had already put the rose gold nautilus on his hand and threw away all the boxes.
However, he still honestly paid more than 60,000 tariffs for the well-packaged steel-shelled nautilus.
If you buy two pieces of nautilus for less than 500,000 yuan, hold them for a few years, and then sell the steel-shelled nautilus, not only will you not lose money, but you will make money by blood.
Zheng Wentong now has a preliminary understanding of why rich people are getting richer and richer.
Because their fault tolerance cost is relatively low, a loss of tens or millions will not hurt their muscles and bones. Once an ordinary person starts a business and goes bankrupt, he can't turn over for more than ten years.
In addition, there is the gap in the first pot of gold, even if ordinary watch fans judge that the price of Nautilus will rise, I am afraid they will not have the courage to take out hundreds of thousands to buy two watches.
After eating, Cheng Wentong went to the viewing terrace of Sir Ellie's Bar on the 14th floor. There weren't many people, so he ordered a drink at the bar and sat by the guardrail to blow the air.
It's getting dark, and this is indeed the best place to watch the night view of the Pujiang River, and the Oriental Pearl and the World Financial Center across the river are also shining in the night.
The Puhai Center, the tallest building in China, has not yet been completed, but it has already shown its majestic figure, and Zheng Wentong looked at the neon of the high-rise buildings in Lujiazui.
Zheng Wentong recalled his career experience before his rebirth:
In June 13, he graduated from Zhongchu University of Economics and Law, majoring in software engineering, and entered Huafu Group for internship in the spring and software development post.
From 13 to 16 years, he has gone through three subsidiaries of Huafu Life Insurance, Huafu Bank and Huafu Jinke in three years.
He also gradually grew from a programmer to a project manager, and participated in the development of Huafu Group's telephone outbound call system lark system as the main force of technology research and development.
Later, due to the year-end bonus and salary increase, the salary was inverted. Zheng Wentong finally chose to change jobs and worked in a number of Internet financial companies.
20 years later, Zheng Wentong entered the head online loan platform, which relied on Internet giants and had a good salary, so he stayed until June 22.
Generally speaking, a personal deposit of 100 million, if you do financial management in ICBC Private Bank, a passive income of five or six million is absolutely no problem.
As long as Zheng Wentong does not get involved in pornography, gambling, drugs, drinking, and luxury, he will not be able to spend this money in his life, and it will be no problem to lie flat for the rest of his life.
Zheng Wentong looked around the bar and didn't find Principal Wang, who often stayed on the peninsula. In fact, he can also learn from Principal Wang, and change his Internet celebrity girlfriend if he has nothing to do, isn't his life quite colorful?
However, Zheng Wentong asked himself again, winning 100 million, lying down completely, and enjoying life, is it really the land he wants?
Zheng Wentong still remembers how he was reborn, when he was browsing Zhihu and replied with high praise, "If you win 100 million yuan, what will you do first?" ”
He still vividly remembers the high praise answer at the top of the line.
"If I win 100 million yuan, I will set up a foundation called the 'Slope Foundation'. The main work of this foundation is to recruit volunteers and coordinate the office. ”
"Do the same thing in every city, county, and town in all parts of China. Ask three volunteers to work in groups of three, one pushing a wheelchair, one in a wheelchair, and one pulling a large suitcase. ”
"The three men walked around the city, documenting that there should be a ramp for people in wheelchairs, people pushing strollers, and passengers with large suitcases, but there was no ramp."
Zheng Wentong liked this answer and replied: "If I really win 100 million, I am willing to donate 99.99 million to facilitate this matter." ”
As a result, he was really reborn from June 2022 to June 2014.
Zheng Wentong remembered a certain movie clip:
The reporter asked Ge You, "If you have a million, can you donate it for charity?" Ge You replied yes.
The reporter asked again: "If you have 10 million, are you willing to donate?" Ge You replied, "I do."
The reporter asked: "If you have 100 million, are you willing to donate?" Ge You replied, "Don't say 100 million, 100 million are willing to donate." ”
The reporter finally asked, "If you have a car, would you be willing to donate it?" Ge You replied, "I don't want to." ”
The reporter didn't understand, "You have donated 1 billion, why don't you give up a car?" Ge You looked back at the car, "Because I really have a car." ”
At present, Zheng Wentong is in the same predicament as Uncle Ge, because he really has 100 million now.
After being reborn, he still wants to keep his promise as much as possible. But fortunately, he can now use the 105 million prize at his disposal.
He can take this 100 million to make an investment, and when this fund becomes 200 million, 500 million or even 1 billion, he will donate another 99.99 million to set up the Slope Public Welfare Foundation, and he will not have too much pressure and will not feel pain.
Zheng Wentong now knows what he wants to do, it is impossible to work part-time, it is impossible to work in this life.
He wants to wave money, become a capital tycoon, invest in a start-up company or a certain project, and be a financial father.
Since he was reborn once, there is no need to survive once, and now he has 100 million starting funds, which is higher than 99.99% of the starting point of entrepreneurship, and he may not be able to create a career.
At this time, a beautiful young lady walked in, and I saw her wearing blue denim shorts, a green long-sleeved jacket, and light-colored underwear inside.
Her pair of long white legs are particularly eye-catching, and with mid-heel sandals, she looks cool and sexy. She held a glass of red wine, shook it, and looked around for an empty seat.
She saw that Zheng Wentong was alone, and he was wearing a gold watch, and after asking if there was anyone next to Zheng Wentong, she sat down.
The two chatted briefly, and Zheng Wentong knew that this long-legged young lady was called Jiang Nan, who was an administrative director in a financial company.
Jiang Nan inquired about Zheng Wentong and asked him what kind of work he was doing in Puhai.
Zheng Wentong said that he is currently unemployed, and is preparing to open a company, and his goal in the next five years is to buy a house in Lujiazui.
Thinking that the new company also needs an administration, Jiang Nan complained about the average income, so he changed his mind and invited him.
"I'll have the company office location in two days, you can come and go around, maybe you want to change the working environment."
