Entertainment: The opening and the official announcement of the national goddess

Zhang Xiao said disdainfully after hearing the words: "Brother Jin, let's not talk about the second brother, the eldest brother, are you like me when you stay at home?"

Wu Jin retorted: "Who is the same as you? In our family, I have always had the final say on everything big and small."

Zhang Xiao smiled and asked, "Who cares about the money?"

"I don't like money." Wu Jin replied.

"You can pull it down!" Zhang Xiao said: "Even the financial power is in the hands of my wife, and you still have the nerve to say that you are the boss? Your cheeks are about to catch up with mine."

"Hahaha!"

Seeing the two fighting each other, the others laughed again.

Zhang Xiao said: "Okay, no kidding, four big brothers, I wish you good food, drink and fun during this trip."

Wu Jin echoed, "It would be even better if I could gain ten catties."

The four female guests spat at Wu Jin at the same time: "Bah!"

Zhang Xiao sarcastically said: "Brother Jin, I didn't mean you, but your bad mouth is really ugly. What does it mean to be ten catties fat?"

"I think at least thirty or forty catties have to be added to make this trip worthwhile."

Reba stared at Zhang Xiao angrily, and said angrily: "Brother-in-law, do you believe that I will go back and tell my sister this?"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiao immediately confessed and closed his mouth.

"Appreciate~~~"

Everyone suddenly burst into laughter.

After arguing for a while, the four female guests began to check their tickets and boarded the plane.

At first, they looked reluctant to leave, but after these women passed by, the four gentlemen looked at each other, stretched out two fingers at the same time, and shouted: "Yeah!"

Wu Jin let out a long sigh of relief, and said, "I'm finally going up. In the next month, I will finally be the boss of my family."

Wang Feng said: "Should we find a place to have a drink and celebrate?"

Zhang Xiao said: "That is necessary!"

Wu Jin said: "Zhang Xiao, I don't think the food in those restaurants is as delicious as yours. Why don't we go buy some food, how about you show off your skills?"

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "I have all kinds of vegetables at home, there is no need to buy them, let's go, let's go to my place to drink."

···
In the following time, Zhang Xiao started to produce the cartoon "Zootopia". Instead of going to Hollywood to produce it, he went to Taishan Special Effects Company and found Liu Haiquan.

The current Taishan Special Effects Company is incredible. Not only is it well funded, but its excellent special effects employees surpass those of its predecessors. It is definitely the number one special effects company in Huaguo.

"Old Liu, what's the matter, can you handle it?" Zhang Xiao looked at Liu Haiquan and asked.

Liu Haiquan was more calm than before. After listening to Zhang Xiao's request in detail, he said: "There will definitely be some difficulties, but I believe we can overcome them."

Zhang Xiao said happily: "That's good."

Liu Haiquan asked: "Are there any time requirements?"

Zhang Xiao thought for a while and said, "It's best within half a year."

Liu Haiquan said with a smile: "Within half a year, that is equivalent to no requirement."

"Huh~~~" Zhang Xiao smiled and said, "Old Comrade Liu, you are quite confident!"

Liu Haiquan said: "Brother Xiao, our Taishan Special Effects Company is now the top special effects company in Huaguo and even the world. If we don't have any confidence, how can we be worthy of such a big name?"

"Hahahaha!" Zhang Xiao laughed and said, "Okay, you really look like a big boss now, and you are no worse than anyone else when you brag."

Liu Haiquan wiped the back of his head, and said with some embarrassment: "My wife said the same thing."

Zhang Xiao couldn't help but smile.

Although Zhang Xiao left enough time for the production of "Zootopia", Liu Haiquan still did not slack off.

In addition to the staff who had to do other special effects for the film, Liu Haiquan gathered all the staff who could be mobilized, a total of more than 3000 people, and worked together to produce "Zootopia".

As for the other domestic and foreign films that came to him, Liu Haiquan did not accept them for the time being.

Zhang Xiao works every day, besides cooking and picking up the children, he will come to Taishan Special Effects Company to discuss film issues with Liu Haiquan.

Time flies, and a month has passed in a blink of an eye.

The long-prepared economic crisis in the Lighthouse country finally broke out completely.

The price of gold has soared, inflation, the stock market has plummeted, countless companies have closed down, and the entire Western economy is in depression. Although their relevant departments have introduced various rescue plans, it still does not help.

After eating, Yang Mi looked at Zhang Xiao with burning eyes, and said, "Honey, you are really amazing."

Zhang Xiao smiled and said, "You mean the financial crisis?"

Yang Mi nodded and said: "I read the news. This financial crisis is very serious. It is estimated that it will last for a long time. You still have the foresight to exchange all the shares of uncle's company into cash and gold."

Zhang Xiaodao: "It's all thanks to Clark. If it wasn't for his reminder and careful inspection of the Beacon Country market, I wouldn't have made such a decision."

Yang Mi nodded and asked, "Then what should I do next?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "Wait, now is just the beginning of the crisis. Those high-quality companies haven't been hurt. It's time for me to show my talents in the middle of the crisis."

Yang Mi asked with a smile: "Then husband, how much money can you make this time?"

Zhang Xiao smiled slightly: "Assets are not measured by money alone. My goal is to acquire shares in those high-quality companies. The number does not need to be too many, about [-] companies are enough."

"As long as there are no problems with my plan, after the financial crisis is over, my assets can reach at least two trillion U.S. dollars. If I operate well, three trillion or four trillion dollars is not out of the question."

Yang Mi's eyes widened when she heard the words, and she said in disbelief: "Now I finally understand what it means to be as rich as an enemy."

Zhang Xiao laughed loudly and said: "No matter how rich a person is, it is impossible to be worth a country. What's more, even if you have ten trillion U.S. dollars, it's useless, it's just that the numbers look good."

"Because you said that if you spend [-] million U.S. dollars every day, you won't be able to spend it all in this lifetime."

Yang Mi thought for a while and said, "You're right."

After dinner, Zhang Xiao accompanied Yang Mi for a walk outside, and Boss Ma called him.

"Boss Ma, what instructions do you have?" Zhang Xiao asked with a smile.

Boss Ma was silent for a moment, and said: "Mr. Zhang, congratulations, your judgment is completely correct."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "It was just a gamble. Fortunately, I won the bet."

Ma Laodao: "The problem is that your win this time established your position as the world's richest man."

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "In terms of personal assets, whether it is on the surface or off the surface, I have already been the world's richest man, and now it is just icing on the cake."

Ma Laodao: "Resolute time, we will hold a national meeting of industry and commerce executives to discuss the coping strategies for this financial crisis. Are you interested in coming to participate?"

"Not interested!" Zhang Xiao said without hesitation: "You know me, but I have never managed any company. In terms of business, I am just a white man, and I can't understand it even if I go there."

Boss Ma smiled wryly and said, "A white man has become the richest man in the world. We should all be killed with a piece of tofu."

Zhang Xiao laughed loudly and said, "That's no way, who made me a genius?"

Ma Laodao: "You are indeed a genius, but I still hope you can come."

Zhang Xiaodao: "Boss Ma, I really don't have time. These days, I'm going to the Lighthouse Country to prepare for shopping."

"I have indeed won the initiative now, but whether this initiative can be turned into a huge victory still needs a lot of work."

Boss Ma laughed and said: "Under such circumstances, you can still keep a clear head. It seems that it is definitely not a fluke that your kid can walk today."

Zhang Xiaodao: "It doesn't matter if it's a fluke or not. My goal now is high-quality overseas assets. When I get all these done, I'll treat you to a drink."

Ma Laodao: "Okay!"

Coincidentally, Boss Ma's phone call just finished, and another Boss Ma's phone call came in.

Same as Boss Ma's intention, he wanted to invite Zhang Xiao to attend the All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce, so Zhang Xiao naturally declined.

Yang Mi smiled and said, "Husband, you are really a big shot now, even the second horse called to invite you in person."

Zhang Xiao cut it, and said: "They must be holding back."

Yang Mi asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

A gleam of wisdom flashed in Zhang Xiao's eyes, and he said, "Because they are all interested in the money in my hand."

"The financial crisis in the West will still spread to China, but to a lesser extent, but it will still be a very big blow to those real estate and Internet companies that rely on borrowing to survive."

"If it doesn't work out, it will be over. In this case, suddenly a super rich man with such a huge capital flow appears in front of those business owners. What do you think will happen next?"

Without even thinking about it, Yang Mi blurted out: "I'm going to eat you for sure."

"That's right!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "The only people in the business world who know about my exchange of shares for cash are the two of them. At this juncture, they suddenly invited me to participate in an event that I have never participated in What kind of federation of industry and commerce, one can imagine what will happen."

Yang Mi smiled and said, "Honey, you really are a bunch of old foxes!"

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "In front of the two of them, I am nothing more than a little fox."

Yang Mi smiled, she didn't think so in her heart, but she didn't say it out, but asked: "Then are you going to the Lighthouse Country next?"

Zhang Xiao hummed, and said: "It will be half a month later. During this time, "Zootopia" is at a critical moment, and I have to keep an eye on it."

Yang Mi was suddenly speechless, and said, "Husband, this is just an animation movie. Compared with more than 4000 billion US dollars, it is really nothing!"

"Nonsense!" Zhang Xiao stared, wiped Yang Mi's stomach, and said, "Compared to my son, no amount of money is shit."

Yang Mi suddenly smiled like a flower, and a deep happiness surged in her heart.

···
After half a month of working in Taishan Special Effects Company, Zhang Xiao left the capital with a few bodyguards and came to New York.

Outside the New York International Airport, Zhang Xiao saw Clark waiting for him at a glance.

"Hi, Clark, long time no see, you look a little ugly!" Zhang Xiao hugged him and said with a smile.

Clark said: "My complexion is indeed not very good, but it's not because of illness, but because I can't sleep due to excitement."

Zhang Xiao laughed loudly, and said: "Remember, the closer you are to success, the more you must maintain a balanced mentality."

"It's like playing football. You use the best moves to pass everyone, but when you hit the goal, you kick the ball away. Then everything you have done before is equal to zero and has no meaning. .”

Clark nodded and said, "Mr. Zhang is right, I will adjust my mentality."

On the way to the manor, Zhang Xiao asked: "What's the situation now?"

Clark replied: "It was worse than we expected. Since the day the financial crisis broke out, the story has evaporated more than 3 trillion US dollars, and it is still falling today."

"There are 40 companies with assets exceeding [-] million yuan that have filed for bankruptcy protection, of which more than [-] have assets exceeding [-] billion yuan, and more than a dozen are banks. The bankruptcy of banks has caused many problems."

"···"

After listening to Clark's narration, Zhang Xiao was silent for a long time, and said, "How is the public security now?"

Clark shook his head and said: "It's unprecedentedly bad. There are robberies and even gun battles happening every day in more than 50 states. Relatively speaking, New York is better, and other places are miserable."

As soon as his flower seal came off, the two speeding gangs staged a classic bag grabbing scene. A middle-aged woman in her 40s in front of her was snatched away by a gangster on a motorcycle.

The middle-aged woman yelled and cursed, but it didn't help at all.

Zhang Xiaodao: "Is this kind of law and order considered good?"

Clark blushed, and said embarrassingly: "Comparatively speaking, it's already pretty good, at least there are no casualties."

Zhang Xiao stroked his forehead and said, "Okay, you won."

Back at the manor, Zhang Xiao and Clark had some lunch, and then came to the headquarters of the investment company together.

Clark explained the information he collected to Zhang Xiao in detail.

Zhang Xiao unconsciously knocked on the table a few times, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Clark, how much room do you think the stock market has to go down?"

Clark shook his head, all: "No one can judge, Mr. Zhang, now the stock market in Lighthouse Country has dropped by one-third as a whole. Unless the whole country collapses, it will drop to half at most."

"This is the nadir of previous financial crises."

Zhang Xiaodao: "Then your opinion is that we should act now?"

"We've had some discussions and think it's time to prepare for a big acquisition," Clarke said.

Zhang Xiao asked again: "Where is the target?"

Clark immediately asked a form to be printed on the big screen, and introduced: "There are 34 companies in total. What these companies have in common is that Gujia has plummeted by more than 60.00%, and they have huge development potential in the future."

"That includes tech companies, internet companies, electric cars, fancy hotels, and more."

"Some of the shareholders who directly wrote about the company have problems with the turnover of funds and are eager to sell their shares. It's just that everyone's situation is similar. No one is willing to buy even if the price is lowered."

Zhang Xiaodao: "Give me all the information about these companies and their leaders, and I will give you a list that can be acquired tomorrow."

Clark nodded and said, "Okay."

After the meeting, Zhang Xiao returned to the manor and began to study the status of the companies on the list.

It has to be said that Clark's team is still very discerning. In Zhang Xiao's view, the targets they chose have a lot of room for development, and they are also the direction of future development.

As long as they can survive this hurdle, most companies will be able to bring Zhang Xiao a huge surprise.

After reading the information for a full four hours, Zhang Xiao circled a dozen or so companies that are most likely to succeed based on the information he obtained in his previous life.

As for the other uncertain companies, Zhang Xiao directly vetoed eight of them, and the remaining seven needed more detailed investigation, at least to get their financial statements before the financial crisis.
