(American nationality is not a soldier in the United States. Where do you go to be a soldier?)
When he first stepped into the audio-visual store, the quiet atmosphere inside made Li Xianzhe very uncomfortable.
First, there are no fans lining up to buy albums as he imagined. Second, there are few people here.
The only two clerks are lazily cleaning the dust on the shelves with chicken feather dusters, and one is lying on his stomach playing with his mobile phone.
"Welcome, what can I do for you?"
"Eh?"
His ears shook slightly. Li Xianzhe didn't expect to hear his hometown dialect.
But when I thought that this was the industry operated by my father's branch in M country, I had no doubt. Li Xianzhe slowly took out his mobile phone and just came out of the army. He hasn't had time to change into the latest model.
The clerk's strange eyes made Li Xianzhe blush. At least in this age, few people are still using 2G mobile phones, and they are still sliding.
After a while, Li Xianzhe put his mobile phone in front of the clerk, coughed and asked, "Hello, maybe, do you have their album?"
The broken mobile phone screen still can't stop the beauty of the six girls. For Li Xianzhe, because he doesn't pay much attention to this circle, some situations in the circle he knows still stay seven or eight years ago.
However, his only spiritual food in the army is just them.
"Ha ha..."
Walking out of the audio-visual store, Li Xianzhe held the only inventory in the store against his forehead and smiled foolishly. It was a crazy powder that had eaten too much. Looking around, no one noticed. He kissed it gently.
"It's not too late to come out in July. I'm lucky to be able to buy their albums in M country."
"Secret garden", which is Li Xianzhe's favorite star group in the army, was released in July this year. The main song "nonono" let him go to the single cycle every night in the army, although the soldiers around him couldn't understand it.
Unfortunately, by now, the activities of singing and publicity have long ended.
However, he was the latest in the circle and didn't know about the release of this album in July at the beginning.
It was an occasional vacation approved by the army. At that time, he was still wearing a military uniform, carrying a package and keeping a board inch. He kept firing in an Internet cafe for some expensive Internet fees and Internet cafe clerks. It was also at that time that he really felt that he had fallen behind.
For example, the Internet fee at that time was twice higher than that before he joined the army. For example, Mingming's album had been released for three months. He knew that he was angry when he came out of the Internet cafe at that time. He happened to pass a beverage store. He was attracted by the melody of the song. Finally, he brazenly went in and asked "what's the name of the song and who sang it?".
"How could it be so beautiful ~ if only my girlfriend" wrapped the album, carefully put it in the bag and muttered, "well, it's time to go up and have a look."
Li Xianzhe didn't know that if his father and brother saw him like this, they might be surprised to drop their eyes on the ground.
Generally speaking, Li Xianzhe's father's industry is somewhat related to the album he just bought. Even his brother began to enter his father's company and act as a lyricist between 2011 and 2012.
Only he himself has no "interest" in his father's career. His greatest preference is to make money! Using the lucky money given to him by his father when he was a child, relying on the professional knowledge trained and learned by his father from childhood, he hired a special team to help him invest since 2006. A few years later, he is now a small rich man in country m, but in his hometown
"Welcome back. The director will be very happy if he knows."
Just after entering the company, a middle-aged man came up and gently hugged Li Xianzhe. During Li Xianzhe's enlistment, he was always responsible for the communication between him and the two management teams.
"Uncle, this kind of ceremony is exempted."
Li Xianzhe waved his hand. His family is pretty good, but he has nothing to do with the real giants.
"Well, you've just retired, and I'm just able to report the results of these two years to you.
"OK."
In a conference room, Li Xianzhe quietly looked at the documents spread out on the table. In the business circle, his principle is actually very simple "money first", which seems to have been inherited from his father.
"At the beginning of 2012, when you joined the army, I used your money from short selling and foreign exchange speculation in the 2008 and 2009 financial crisis to acquire the shares of the following enterprises for you. These enterprises are fully controlled, but these are not many, but it is more than enough for you to enter the board of directors."
While listening to the uncle's report, Li Xianzhe believes that as long as people have money, the world is even a state-controlled industry. It's impossible to buy it, but it's OK to serve themselves for a period of time.
Of course, the premise is to look at which country and industry. If a rich man wants to buy a country's Island, he can really become the owner of the island forever with some money.
"However, I'm curious. I remember that director Li intended to let you enter the company to help him manage the company's affairs a long time ago, and you are also very talented in music. Even Mr. Yu often praised you.
How did I suddenly find out that I wanted to buy these enterprises before joining the army? "
Uncle is very curious. Li Xianzhe is famous in the eyes of the people around him. He is not interested in that circle. He only looks at the current political news and some "unfathomable" fluctuation charts in the eyes of others on the Internet. Although he has helped some artists in his father's company write a lot of hot songs several times, the reason is also very straightforward: making money.
Then use the earned money to invest in industries in various fields. The more you invest, the more benefits you will recover as long as you operate well.
"Because I know that this industry makes money. My father's company is a good example.
However, it's not that I'm not interested in entering his company. You know better than me that his company has too deep background and the members of the board of directors are intertwined. That's why I found such a reason.
What can make me feel more at ease than buying it and becoming its owner. "
Li Xianzhe sighed when he thought of the past. When he joined the army in 12 years, he had more than $23 billion in leverage operation in the financial crisis of 2008 and 2009 alone. So far, the money he has invested in it is still doubling under the management of professional teams on both sides of Citibank and Wall Street.
Even the two teams helped him invest in and acquire some industries he didn't know. In other words, Li Xianzhe didn't know what industries he had and how much money he had.
The rest, including the money earned by doubling the appreciation of real estate in country m and his hometown every other year in the name of his father when he was young, and the money earned by investing in NBA teams, World Cup games and Manchester United club in his name.
Of course, Li Xianzhe also had the biggest card. During the outbreak of the 2008 financial crisis, he met a man when studying in the United States. This man wrote a paper under his pseudonym Nakamoto Cong and published it on the Internet. At that time, everyone thought he was crazy.
With the support of Li Xianzhe's funds, they jointly created a new set of electronic currency, also known as bit. After becoming famous in World War I, the two behind leaders quickly disappeared.
"CCM is a sunset company with more than US $2 million and more than RMB 10 million. If the fans of that group know it, they can buy it off by raising a little money (a Chinese queen on the microblog calculated that 10 million will be enough in 14 years).
DSP, a $3.7 million company, is a little old brand in terms of details and establishment time, but the price is reasonable, but the company has no valuable traffic.
Next, jellyfish, starships and other five or six companies are fully controlled, including the other two except father's company, which are only a few percent of the shares. Forget it, just get on the board. "
Narrowing his eyes, Li Xianzhe roughly calculated that it cost less than $2 billion to acquire the shares of these companies and the internal artist contract. Both artists and companies there are famous cheap, at least in the eyes of rich people.
Think about 14 years ago, several companies bought several large companies over there with only hundreds of millions of RMB. In 2011, YG had a market value of more than 100 billion h dollars, which was only a few points in US dollars and RMB.
The two major social organizations and my father's company add up to this price.
"You've worked hard all these years, uncle."
After sorting out the messy materials on the table, Li Xianzhe couldn't help stretching his waist and was light. Li Xianzhe paid for everything except the memory and that others didn't have in his head.
"No problem. I've been in this industry for so many years, but I'm not as comfortable as I've been working in recent years. By the way, director Li is going to give a speech tomorrow. I heard that your brother will also go there. Are you interested in taking a look?"
"Where?"
"Your school, the speech time is tomorrow."
