Be reborn and be happy to the fullest

Yu Chengcheng is warm and welcoming, but Li Shuo is not impressed. This kind of smiling young man is often more sinister and more difficult to deal with than those who are straightforward. Ordinary dandy boys can be dealt with head-on, but this kind of person, once he wants to deal with you, has often already dug a big hole for you.

In his previous life, Li Shuo was at the bottom of society and didn't know Yu Chengcheng, but he had heard a lot of rumors about the SV Club. This club was only a place for rich young men to have fun, and every year there would be rumors such as "a young girl was tortured to death" and "people were missing". There were also some outrageous ones, such as transferring assets for XX, playing in high seas casinos, etc.

In short, Li Shuo was neither close nor cold to him, he just dealt with him casually. As his eyes wandered around, he saw a woman in white sitting in the passenger seat of Cullinan. His face could not be seen clearly due to the angle of view, but her skin was very good, even with a jade-like color that Li Shuo had never seen before.

Just as Li Shuo was distracted, the co-pilot seemed to be fed up with Yu Chengcheng's nagging and suddenly shouted coldly:

"Shut up! Yu Chengcheng, drive!"

Miraculously, Yu Chengcheng decisively shut up, said "goodbye" to Li Shuo awkwardly, and soon drove away.

Li Shuo raised his eyebrows. He originally thought that the woman in the passenger seat was Yu Chengcheng's mistress, or the daughter of a rich family, but from her accent, she sounded like a foreigner. To be precise, she spoke with the short tongue accent of Japan and South Korea.

Besides, who is this woman? Although Yu Chengcheng appears to be kind, he is not someone who will easily follow orders from others.

At this time, General Huo drove the Phaeton over. Li Shuo immediately put the matter behind him, got in the car, and headed straight for the Hongqiao headquarters...

……

On the other side, the woman was asking Yu Chengcheng, "Is that person important? How could you talk to him for such a long time?"

Yu Chengcheng said: "He is a leader of the new generation of Lenghai. The Shuoguo system he founded has a very strong momentum of development..."

He briefly recounted the rise of the Shuoguo Group, and then said, "Ms. Iwasaki, the 30th Foundation wants to develop the cultural industry in China and spread the influence of Japanese culture. Using this kind of new cultural force is actually the most effective means."

Miss Iwasaki nodded: "Very good, cultural strategy is the core plan of the Iwasaki family at this stage. My father's previous expectation for you is that you can create a cultural group that leads the trend in China. If you can acquire Shuoguo Culture and build it into the first cultural group in Lenghai, you will probably have achieved the primary goal..."

Yu Chengcheng's heart moved, and he asked tentatively: "As long as Leng Hai is number one, our marriage will be settled?"

Miss Iwasaki said straightforwardly: "If you achieve your goal, I will marry into the Yu family! This is the Iwasaki family's promise, and it cannot be questioned!"

Yu Chengcheng immediately laughed awkwardly and said, "Haha, how dare I question the No. 1 financial group family in East Asia? Moreover, the Iwasaki family has a long history and an outstanding reputation. I can't even begin to admire them enough..."

Before he could finish, Miss Iwasaki interrupted him and said, "Don't flatter me like that. Although the Iwasaki family was very powerful in history, since the new century, the shares of the consortium have been diluted by the wolves, and the family's control over the 30 consortium has been reduced to the lowest level..."

"There is no longer any opportunity for vigorous development on that island in Japan. Only the outside world can provide fresh momentum for the Iwasaki family. I am my father's only daughter. I am in Lenghai, which means that the Iwasaki family attaches great importance to this place. As long as you show the corresponding ability, you and the Yu family will naturally be able to obtain the most abundant resource support from the Iwasaki family..."

Even with Yu Chengcheng's scheming, he was so excited that he could hardly control himself: the Sanling Group was the leader of the six largest groups in Japan. Even though the Iwasaki family was about to lose control of the Sanling Group, a lean camel was bigger than a horse. As long as the Iwasaki family supported him, Yu Chengcheng was confident that in his generation, the Yu family would become the number one family in Lenghai!

……

Li Shuo had no idea that he had encountered the source of Yu Chengcheng's wealth. While driving, Huo Si reported to him some information about Shuoguo's security:

"...Shuoguo Security currently has 20 registered employees, but because they are all brothers of Spade A, the quality of the staff is uneven. In order to change the current situation, it has recently started recruiting staff, but the people recruited are, well, mostly management clerks. It's okay to let them sit in the office and do some administration and personnel work, but once something really happens, they still have to rely on the people below..."

Huo Si himself had a low level of education and his speech was a little confusing, but Li Shuo could tell that his view was correct: security was different from other industries, and when something happened, it was the people who had to charge into battle. So administrative personnel could be recruited to make the company more formal, but its foundation still lay in the security staff.

So Li Shuo ordered: "Recruit some retired soldiers. We can hire them as instructors to train the brothers of Spade Ace."

He would not casually recruit retired soldiers as security personnel. Security is related to life and property, so naturally he would use the people he trusts the most.

Huo Si nodded, but then said, "Can I ask Sister Shao for help with this?"

"why?"

Huo Si said: "Sister Shao's uncle is a retired soldier. I heard that he was an officer. He has a wide network of contacts in this area."

"Chen Zhijun?"

Li Shuo raised his eyebrows and smiled bitterly. It seemed that he still had to get in touch with Shao Yiying's family as soon as possible.

"I'll talk to Sister Shao about this later..."

When Huiteng arrived at the Hongqiao headquarters, Lu Tingyu and Yang Kangcheng, the two CEOs of Shuoguo Culture, were waiting in the square with a group of employees. Today was the opening ceremony of Shuoguo Culture's first project, "The Invisible Guardian", so all employees attached great importance to it.

In addition to the employees, contracted artists such as Miss, Bai Lu, Feng Linlin, Li Ziqin, and even Jiang Mengjie were all present.

The women were all very sensible. After Li Shuo got off the car, none of them came up to him because it was such a formal occasion, so naturally Lu and Yang would accompany Li Shuo.

Li Shuo led his people and first shook hands with the visiting guests one by one. The first one was Yu Nuannuan. This Lenghai socialite was wearing a burgundy dress and was covered with jewels. She looked particularly radiant. Many beauties present were outshined by her.

Yu Nuannuan shook hands with Li Shuo. In addition to congratulating him, she also said with a smile: "... Mr. Li, your abacus beads are bouncing on my face! If the first project of Shuoguo Culture can be successful, the market valuation will definitely rise in the future. How can we buy shares then?"

Li Shuo smiled and said, "It's just the start of a game project, which is not a big deal. Besides, we don't know when the game will be released. According to the current development trend of NEOTV, it won't delay anything..."

He was referring to the "bet" with Yu Nuannuan. In January 11, NEOTV needed to achieve a revenue of tens of millions, which would mean that Li Shuo had completely revitalized the streaming company.

At this time, Young Master Lin interrupted and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? As long as Shuoguo Culture can do well, investing more money in it will not hurt anything. We are in business, so we should chase the rise and sell the fall..."

He talked a lot, and in addition to praising Li Shuo's abilities, he also brought up a set of typical leek theories in the securities market: buy when it goes up and sell when it goes down.

At the first "Shuoguo Conference", Mr. Lin spent 3000 million to buy shares in Shuoguo E-Sports. Later, Shuoguo E-Sports acquired PLU one after another, and now also holds shares in NEOTV. Its development prospects are booming, and Mr. Lin's investment has already made a lot of money.

Therefore, Young Master Lin's status in the family has risen recently, and he has controlled more resources. Gradually, he has even become one of the top young masters in the SV club.

Having received positive feedback, Young Master Lin has become what he is now. The good thing is that now he is praising Li Shuo all the time and has almost blind trust in him.

Li Shuo's heart moved when he heard this, and he suddenly thought of the "value investment" concept he wanted to establish. He thought that since everyone was present today, he could hold a small meeting to promote it.

In addition to these two, the guests included people from the second-generation circle such as Qin Fen, Si Chengwu, Xiong Mingxun, as well as some people from cultural departments and government agencies.

In short, Shuoguo Culture put all its efforts into the launch of the first project and made it quite grand. After shaking hands with the guests one by one, Li Shuo gave a brief speech, which consisted mostly of polite words. Then, amid a string of firecrackers, the game version of "The Invisible Guardian" officially started recording.

However, the start-up recording in the morning was just a formality. Soon Li Shuo took the guests back to a tidied hall in the headquarters, where various meals and drinks had been set out, and the gathering was held in the form of a buffet.

"Mr. Li" and "Mr. Li"

Amid the greetings, Li Shuo came to the circle where Young Master Lin and the others were standing. Young Master Lin was talking to Yu Nuannuan and the others:

"…Investment also requires learning not to be afraid of chasing high prices and to stop losses in time. Not being afraid of chasing high prices means that when you encounter a company and feel that its valuation is a bit high, you are in awe and are unwilling to invest in it. This is actually wrong. There is a reason why its price is high. Similarly, stopping losses in time means abandoning the shares of companies that have not generated income for many years…"

Hearing this, Li Shuo smiled and said jokingly: "Mr. Lin, I didn't expect that you have become an investment master now, amazing!"

Young Master Lin was naturally humble in front of Li Shuo and said that he learned everything from him.

Li Shuo quickly shook his head and said, "I am a firm value investor. Our investment philosophies are opposite. You can't learn from me."

As soon as these words came out, Young Master Lin's eyes suddenly lit up and he blurted out, "What is value investing?"

After saying that, he felt a little regretful, and quickly added: "If it involves your privacy, forget it. After all, it is well known that you can make money. It would be bad if the trick to make money was revealed by me."

Although he said this, his eyes were still looking at Li Shuo eagerly.

Yu Nuannuan, Qin Fen and others around him are mostly the same. The development of the Shuoguo system is obvious to all, so everyone is naturally curious about what tricks Li Shuo has.

"This is not a secret, but there are too few people who can stick to it."

Li Shuo sighed and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the concept of value investment is not original to me, but comes from Mr. Buffett..."

One of the easiest ways to gain recognition from others is to pretend to be someone you are not. Furthermore, what Li Shuo said was true.

"Buffett? The American one?"

"No way, Buffett, the god of investment?"

"I remember that some reports on Wall Street did call the stock god a staunch value investor..."

There was an uproar all around, and then everyone looked at Li Shuo more and more enthusiastically.

Li Shuo then said: "Value investing is buying valuable companies at the right price and holding them for a long time..."

He tried to describe "value investing" as simply as possible, but it still took him three minutes, leaving everyone around him a little confused.

On behalf of everyone, Young Master Lin asked the most important question: "What is the right price? How do you choose a valuable company?"

Li Shuo then smiled mysteriously and said, "Well, everyone has different opinions, and different companies have different answers..."

In fact, to put it bluntly, it means controlling the right to speak!

In the U.S. stock market, when Buffett is optimistic about a stock, even if there is only a rumor, the stock will surge that day, and countless people will come in to support the old man! This is naturally because the stock god is famous enough and controls the right to interpret "value company".

What Li Shuo wants to do now is to become the "Buffett of China", so he did not hesitate at this time, but gave a specific example:

"For example, I recently invested in a company in Beijing. Before investing, I went through a comprehensive investigation. I not only checked the financial situation, but also had contact with the founders and senior executives. In the end, I thought it was good, so I invested money in it."

Under everyone's eager gaze, Li Shuo smiled calmly and said:

"You don't have to look at me like that. Now that I've come to this point, I'll naturally tell you where my investment is going now. Even if you knew, I'm afraid you wouldn't dare to invest as boldly as I do..."

"This company is called 'Beijing Cultural Creativity'. It is a cultural production company. It has been established for ten years and has won numerous awards in the past ten years, but it rarely has any popular works that are well known to the public. The company's annual revenue is between 600 million and 1200 million yuan, and its market valuation is around 1 million RMB. However, my investment is 2500 million yuan for a 20% stake, which is about 25% more than the market price..."

"This is an investment case where you will lose 25% as soon as you invest. So-called value investing often involves investing in high-quality companies at their lowest point. No one knows how long the company will be undervalued. Perhaps after my investment, Beijing Cultural and Creative's revenue capacity will further decline... But since it is my investment, I naturally have confidence that it will rise again one day in the future!"

After Li Shuo finished speaking, the enthusiasm of the people around him faded at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even Young Master Lin was hesitant at this moment: this was a game where investment equals loss, and no one's money came from the wind. They trusted Li Shuo because Li Shuo had brought these rich young men and princesses to make money on PLU and NEOTV, and if they saw that they were not making any money, this trust would drop sharply!

Qin Fen said directly: "Mr. Li is very courageous. I am not capable of that. I am timid and can only watch Mr. Li make money!"

As he spoke, others praised Li Shuo for his "great courage" and never mentioned the matter of following the investment...
