Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

Yang Kangcheng called at 8 o'clock in the morning. Li Shuo had just woken up at that time and agreed without thinking much.

After hanging up the phone, Feng Linlin, who was busy doing morning exercises, looked up and said, "Aren't you going to Beijing for the drama competition? The drama competition has a gathering place in Lenghai, and we will gather in the morning and leave at noon..."

Li Shuo just then remembered this matter. The drama competition is a national event. There are more than 100 students participating in the finals alone. At that time, according to different categories, the Art and Drama Association, the organizer of the competition, will award more than ten trophies and many certificates. Basically speaking, anyone who can go to Beijing to participate in the finals can at least get a certificate.

Therefore, we are all winners, and the travel expenses and accommodation costs will naturally be covered by the organizer.

"Who is the organizer's person in charge here? Do you know him?"

"Hmm... I think I've met him before. He was a small leader in the cultural field. His last name was Zeng."

"Give me his phone number later and I'll ask for leave."

Feng Linlin also thought that it was not a big problem, so she didn't say anything and buried her head in her own work. It was not until Wang Ziyu got impatient and pushed her away that she slid along Li Shuo's body like a snake and got in front of his face, smiling as she watched him make the phone call.

"Hello, is this Director Zeng? I'm Li Shuo from the Cultural and Entertainment Department of the Academy of Drama... I have something I want to report to you, it's like this..."

Even to small leaders, Li Shuo spoke politely and tactfully, but the latter did not remember who Li Shuo was and spoke in official language for a long time, saying "no", "no organization and no discipline", and "if you don't come this time, then don't go to Beijing to receive the award."

Perhaps he thought that a student would be at his mercy, so after he finished speaking, Zeng Chu did not even give Li Shuo time to introduce himself. He hung up the phone with a "bang".

Li Shuo was stunned for several seconds. He really didn't expect to encounter such a thing. Even the district leader in charge of culture was very close to him and called him nephew. How could such a small director decide the future of a student without knowing the truth? !

"He didn't recognize who you are?" Feng Linlin, who had been listening to the whole conversation, was also stunned and quickly said, "Don't worry, I know this person, I will go to meet him in person later."

Since Li Shuo had promised Yang Kangcheng, he would naturally have to rush to the hotel where Cao Jie and others were staying in advance, so he would naturally not be free in the morning.

Finally, he told Feng Linlin, "You need to meet Director Zeng, but when you meet him, don't beat around the bush. Just show him your cards. Well, I had dinner with Director Wu, who is in charge of culture, a few days ago. Just tell me his name... I'm just asking for leave. Look how powerful this guy is!"

Feng Linlin smiled and said in a tender voice: "Okay, I will take care of these small matters, Master, you should quickly reward Ziyun..."

As he said that, he began to help Wang Ziyun...

After a lot of trouble, it was already past 1 o'clock in the morning when Li Shuo left Student Apartment No. 10 and arrived at the meeting place of Li Shaohong and others.

He did not enter the venue, but found a seat in the hotel lobby:

The reason why he didn't come here early as usual, in addition to the fact that he was entangled by the two goblins, was also because Li Shuo himself didn't like such occasions. The reborn people work so hard just to live a life without having to care about other people's opinions!

Taking out his phone, thinking that "Shuoguo Culture" was short of money, Li Shuo first went online and logged into the Kunbeisi account to take a look. Recently, B-coin has begun to fall again. The current account balance has shrunk a lot compared to before, so Li Shuo quickly lost interest. At this time, he saw the securities APP next to the Kunbeisi account...

"Tsk, I haven't seen it for a long time since I came to Lenghai!"

In fact, after coming to Lenghai, Li Shuo has basically sold out most of his A-share stocks, but he still retained one or two, with a holding size of about 10.

Li Shuo opened the stock account with great interest, and then his face turned black: Damn, the two stocks left have both fallen for two months in a row. The current market value of the entire account's holdings has shrunk by 50%, leaving only more than 5 yuan!

Although 5 yuan is just a drop in the bucket for Li Shuo now, it still makes him feel very unhappy. Li Shuo opened the stock details page and took a look at the comments section. He found that they were all curses:

"Reduce holdings, reduce holdings, all you know is reducing holdings all day long!"

"Look at what the stock price has become. Selling off at a low price, what's the purpose?"

"Rubbish,*&%&"

The entire comment section was filled with insults, and Li Shuo felt relieved when he read it, but more than that, a new idea kept popping up in his mind:

The A-share market is not very friendly to retail investors. The reason is that shareholders of listed companies can use various means to cash out and leave the market. As someone in later generations said: They are not here to raise funds to develop the company, but to go public, make money and run away!

If you dare to buy its stocks, it will sell the company to you!

The reason why Li Shuo thought of this was because this was the business he did in his previous life: he was a financial migrant worker at the time, and his task was to prepare financial reports for companies that were about to go public, so that they could increase their market value before listing, and then make it easier for shareholders to cash out and run away.

Because of the nature of his work, Li Shuo is very familiar with most of the companies that will be listed in the future: even if he has not worked with all of these companies, he has studied their listing cases and has a general idea of ​​their situations!

The most important thing is that these companies that will be worth hundreds of billions or tens of billions in the future are not yet listed. Before the bubble of paper numbers is inflated, their value may be only tens of millions or 1 million. It only costs a few million to become a shareholder!

"But if I invest in every company and then try to sell off my holdings after it goes public, wouldn't I become one of those people who are being scolded by retail investors today?"

Li Shuo muttered to himself, then frowned. After all, he was a man with some moral bottom line, and doing such a thing really made him feel guilty.

"I can avoid investing in junk companies and only invest in high-quality companies, at least companies whose share prices have been rising over the long term. This way, I won't have to sell off a large number of shares after they go public... 'Be a value investor quietly, be a friend of time, and enjoy the happiness brought by wealth appreciation'..."

At the end, Li Shuo couldn't help laughing:

The second half of his words seemed to come from the stock god Buffett. It is a classic theory that has been repeated over and over again in every bull market of A-shares. However, it works in US stocks, but always fails in our A-share market. If it is repeated too much, it becomes a fraudulent lie.

But now Li Shuo feels that he could become a "Chinese Buffett". This would go against his conscience but at the same time establish a golden signboard. In this way, perhaps in the future, he could be like Buffett, and all companies would be honored to give him shares!

Thinking of this, Li Shuo began to operate his mobile phone skillfully, opened the browser, logged into some national public disclosure system websites, and began to look for his target from these public information.

Public information actually doesn't have much value, because most of the companies that can be made public are about to go public. It is too late for Li Shuo to invest in them now.

But it doesn’t matter. Li Shuo can use these to recall the companies that went public right after them, and then find the future value target in these memories.

It took Li Shuo about an hour to write down a lot of companies in the memo on his mobile phone, but then he crossed out a lot of them. After all, it is too difficult to find companies that will rise in the long term. 99% of the companies may have a few years of main upward trend, but then there will be a decade of decline. In the end, only two poor companies will be left.

Beijing cultural and creative products, forest beverages.

The former is a cultural creation company in Beijing, whose main business areas are media and film and television industries. In the next 10 years, its stock price will probably increase by about 20 times. The latter is a beverage company, and its future earnings will be slightly lower, which will be about 10 times in 15 years.

15 times and 20 times may seem like a lot, but in a stock market where stocks are trading at hundreds of times, these two companies cannot really be considered high-quality. The key is that they have a stable trend and their performance each year has been improving step by step, which is in line with the "value investment" mindset.

"Beijing Cultural and Creative Company. I vaguely remember that Huaying seems to have invested in it. This time when I go to Beijing, I can start from here and see if I can get some shares..."

Finally, Li Shuo circled “Beijing Cultural and Creative Industries” and had a plan in mind.

At this time, the phone rang. Feng Linlin informed her that she had dealt with "Director Zeng" and told him to gather at XX address after arriving in Beijing.

Li Shuo praised him and then called Director Zeng back. He wanted to thank him, but he received some sarcastic replies: "Director Wu's friend is so arrogant. Little guy, I approved your leave this time for Director Wu's sake, but you have to be careful in the future. Those who can get good results in this competition are all confident people. Everyone gathered together to go to Beijing, why are you an exception?"

Having said that, he hung up the phone without giving Li Shuo a chance to speak.

paralysis!

Li Shuo cursed, and he tolerated it the first time, but he didn't expect it to happen a second time!

He called Director Wu directly: "Brother Wu, I have something to ask. Do you know Director Zeng? It's just..."

After making a phone call, Li Shuo figured out some things: It's not that Director Wu's reputation is not well-known, but that there is someone who used to work at the dock behind him and has some grudges with Director Wu, and the two parties don't like each other!

To put it bluntly, it was because Li Shuo treated the matter too casually and did not understand the situation clearly, which aroused Zeng Chu's disgust.

"It's really a small temple with many evil spirits. There are so many evil ways in such a small cultural place."

Li Shuo muttered something and put the matter aside for the time being. He decided to experience the power of this minor official in person after arriving in the capital.

Twenty minutes later, the meeting was over and Li Shaohong, Cao Jie and others came downstairs. When they saw Li Shuo, they were naturally polite to each other. Then, Cao Jie grabbed Li Shuo's hand and introduced many seniors who attended the meeting.

"Everyone, this is my new disciple Li Shuo... Xiao Shuo, let me introduce him to you..."

I have to say that Cao Jie is quite methodical in doing things. Although he only accepted Li Shuo as a nominal disciple, he gave Li Shuo full face in front of outsiders. Not only did he call him a disciple, he also introduced his friends in the circle to him one by one. This was equivalent to using his own face to expand Li Shuo's social circle.

In response to this, Li Shuo no longer acted pretentiously and stood beside Cao Ji with the attitude of a junior, greeting these bigwigs in the circle.

These people were also very enthusiastic. Among them was a playwright named Jin Lao. When Cao Jie introduced Li Shuo, he mentioned that he had participated in this year's drama competition.

Jin Lao said with a smile: "Oh? Xiao Li, are you going to Beijing to receive the award? Congratulations."

Li Shuo said modestly, "Thank you for your compliment, Master Jin. The drama competition has many prizes, and I just went there to join in the fun."

"It's a normal thing," said Old Jin, "Xiao Li, don't be embarrassed. Young people like you who are still in school should accumulate more experience for yourself so that it will be easier for you to enter the society in the future. My granddaughter is from the Beijing Dance Academy, and I forced her to write a manuscript for the competition, didn't I?"

At this point, he leaned closer to Li Shuo and smiled mysteriously: "But unlike you, my granddaughter has good writing talent, so she passed the audition without any connections!"

The old man looked so proud that Li Shuo didn't have the heart to criticize him: "You are the president of the Art and Drama Association. Your granddaughter is participating in the competition. Does she need you to say hello to her when she passes the audition?"

"Congratulations, Mr. Jin..."

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's nothing, after all, she is my Jin family's child. Actually, she came to Lenghai with me, but today she followed the group of the drama competition, and her route was exactly the opposite of yours..."

"Oh"

"I'll introduce you to each other when we get to the capital, but I warn you in advance not to have any bad ideas about my sweet granddaughter. My granddaughter is too naive..."

Li Shuo didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Grandpa, I don't even know what your granddaughter looks like, how can this be relevant..."

Almost at the same time, Jin Chen came to the main gate of Lenghai Drama Academy with curiosity. There were many people queuing up here. She walked up and said loudly: "Excuse me, is this the bus to Beijing for the drama competition?"

The leader was a middle-aged man. He turned around and saw Jin Chen's beautiful face and nice figure. His eyes lit up and he said loudly, "Yes, you are Jin Chen, right? Come on, I am Zeng Tao, the leader of Lenghai. Welcome to join the team!"

Jin Chen walked forward with a smile, but was stopped by Zeng Tao. He did not let her join the team immediately, but introduced her loudly, "Let me introduce you to everyone. This is Jin Chen, the granddaughter of Mr. Jin from our Art and Drama Association. Although she has a special status, she is never arrogant. Because she is in Lenghai, she greeted me in advance and said that she would go to Beijing with everyone..."

"On the other hand, some people, no, there is only one exception in our team. He said today that he had something to do and actually wanted to go to Beijing by himself. After being rejected by me, he used all kinds of connections and backdoors to avoid taking the bus. He really did everything he could. Do you think that this kind of person is worthy of going to Beijing to compete with everyone else?"

Following Zeng Tao's deliberate guidance, the students almost shouted in unison: "Not worthy!"
