America's Road to Fame

Chapter 283 22 years old

On June 6th, when William Chen woke up in the morning, he immediately noticed a difference.

Opening the interface of Future Bank, he saw new news:

Congratulations to the user for getting the birthday gift package, please check it.

He just remembered that today is his birthday in this world, after today, he will be officially 22 years old.

I feel that this future bank has not had any activities for a long time, and I have really forgotten the feeling of opening gift bags, and I am a little excited when I think about it.

William Chen glanced at Paris and Miranda next to him. He was still asleep, so he got up, and after taking a shower, he was about to open the birthday gift bag.

After a burst of special effects, William Chen saw the items obtained in the [Birthday Gift Package] this time:
[Prediction scroll (one-time)] Fear comes from the unknown, and this scroll can gain insight into the future movement.Write down relevant questions that can be answered with a "yes" or "no".

This is a good prop, which can predict the possibility of the future. For example, Chen William can write on it "Can Manchester United win the Premier League next year?" Then he can get a "yes" or "no" answer, so as to know the answer .It's just that you can only seek the answer to this kind of alternative question, and it is a one-time item, but it is still very useful if used properly.

[Experience Amplification Ring (Intermediate Level)] can greatly increase the comprehension speed of a certain skill, and it will take effect when it is worn on the hand. The accumulated effective time is 72 hours, and the item will disappear automatically when the effective time is exhausted.

Chen William had obtained this ring before, but the [Experience Boosting Ring] at that time was a primary item, this time he got an intermediate item, the difference is that the increased skill comprehension speed has changed from "larger" to "extreme", and it is effective The duration has changed from 36 hours to 72 hours.

The last time William Chen used the [Experience Amplification Ring] to learn script writing and director’s storyboard production, and the effect is still very good. How to use it this time, you have to think about it and save it for now.

【Jiaolongzhu】After taking it, you can increase your water suitability, and you can swim freely in the water like a fish.

Uh, does this mean that taking this will allow you to hold your breath longer in water?Or swim faster?This William Chen is still unclear. His swimming level can only be said to be good, far from a professional athlete, that is to say, his physical fitness is good.

However, since this is a prop that can be used to improve one's own attributes, William Chen took it out and swallowed it bluntly, and didn't feel anything unusual, so let's slowly experience the changes when swimming in the future.

This time the [Birthday Gift Pack] is quite rich, and at the end there is [Liuwei Dihuang Pills], which I have taken a few times, and the effect is still very good, so William Chen took it immediately.

……

Today is William Chen's birthday. Many people celebrated his birthday by posting on social media, and everyone around him gave him birthday presents. It can only be said that it feels good to unwrap the presents.

Of course, there are also those that don’t need to be dismantled. For example, William Chen has five more cars at once...

Uncle John Dray gave him an "Army One" on behalf of the Dray family. Of course, it was not the one owned by the General of the United States, but all the configurations were the same as that "Army One".

This Cadillac Presidential Limousine is based on the chassis of a GMC Topkick C4500 truck.Its 6.6L V8 Duramax supercharged diesel engine also comes from the Topkick truck. Its strong safety and heavy body make its top speed only 96 kilometers per hour, and its fuel consumption per 30 kilometers reaches [-]L.

The spacious compartment of this car can easily accommodate 6 passengers. The independent compartment is completely isolated from the driver's cab, and the conversation with the driver in front is just one button away.The high-end audio system, hand-cut wood grain veneer, and hand-stitched blue leather together create a noble interior atmosphere.

The most staggering thing is its safety. The armored door about 20cm thick weighs the same as the Boeing 757 door and can resist the attack of shoulder-fired rocket launchers.The reinforced chassis is also resistant to mines and bombs.Even if its run-flat tire is shot through, it can still ensure that the vehicle can run freely.

The car is equipped with an independent air circulation system for anti-biological and chemical weapons and an advanced fire extinguishing system.It also has a shotgun, infrared night vision camera, tear gas delivery device, etc., and can even be equipped with the owner's blood reserve.

Since the Dre family already knew that he was going to buy Palu, this birthday gift was quite meaningful.

Uncle Tom gave him the latest Bugatti Veyron sports car, which was just launched at the Dubai Motor Show and is worth 237 million US dollars. It has blue carbon fiber and polished aluminum trim, and orange leather seats. , looks very beautiful.

Ivanta and Paris also gave him a new supercar respectively, but they seem to have a tacit understanding and chose different brands. Ivanta gave him McLaren F1; Paris It was a Ferrari F50 given to him...

Well, these two really match up.

The last one was a special edition Roadster two-door sports car that Musk built for him at Tesla.

Fortunately, William Chen's Long Island estate is big enough, otherwise it really wouldn't be able to accommodate so many new cars.

At the same time, William Chen may also be the only celebrity who made headlines just because of his birthday, because he was just 22 years old as the fourth richest person in the world announced by Forbes.

And according to the reports of many business magazines, Forbes had obviously underestimated Chen William's net worth a lot. If the evaluation is based on the property he currently owns, then his net worth will definitely not be just the fourth place. With his current age and development speed, the most optimistic scenario, I am afraid that next year there will be a 22-year-old richest man in the world.

It is no wonder that the "Wall Street Journal" gave the front page headline to William Chen today. The headline is:

"William is 22 years old today, and this age is likely to become a new record for the richest man in the world! "

But although the outside world seems to be very lively because of his birthday, today is not too busy for William Chen.

It's just that at noon, I had dinner with Paris and the others, and then at night, I took Ivanta to hold a small-scale birthday party with Uncle Tom and John Drey, and it was considered over.

In addition, there are two good news on this day:

One is that after a long period of contact and negotiation, Meta Entertainment and Media Company finally completed the privatization of Valve at a total price of 5 million US dollars.

At first, he wanted to acquire the company Valve because Chen William took a fancy to Steam, a game platform owned by Valve Corporation, which was later equivalent to a money printing machine.

However, the founder of this company, Fatty G, has never been willing to sell the company, so they had no choice but to buy shares from the secondary market and the company's investment institutions, while at the same time hard-pressing the company's management and giving them a Relaxed independent operating conditions.

In the end, the management including Fatty G finally let go. Meta Entertainment Media Company obtained more than 70% of Valve's shares, and officially issued an offer to all shareholders to privatize the company. The total cost of about 5 million US dollars was completed. The overall acquisition of this company.

The other is that the team led by Erica has finally reached a final agreement with the Avex Group. Meta Group will acquire their music department, which is Aihui Records, for US$15 billion, and transfer this Asia's largest The record company took over.

After the acquisition, Aihui Records will be merged into EMI Asia.

According to the previous agreement between Chen William and EMI Asia CEO Mai Dequn, the Japanese market part of Aihui Records will be merged with EMI Asia's Japanese business to become the Japanese region of EMI Asia. The current president of Aihui Records, Matsuura Ren will serve as the president of EMI Asia Japan and concurrently the vice president of EMI Asia.

As for the business of Aihui Records in other regions, it will be merged into the relevant departments of EMI Asia.

Afterwards, EMI Asia will be divided into Greater China, South Korea, Japan, and Southeast Asia, and vice presidents will be appointed to be in charge of related affairs.

The weakest region at present may be the South Korean region, and related acquisitions will be carried out next.
