Chapter 294 Yachting
1.6x reward.

It's not an exaggeration, but it made Han Yi overjoyed.

Because he really has no special interest in yachts and sailing itself.

For a person who is not only afraid of swimming but also gets seasick, even if he buys a superyacht, he will probably only go out for a spin in the offshore area when the weather is calm.

Don't even think about a transoceanic voyage.

He knew very well that the reason why he participated in the Monaco Yacht Show was simply because he needed a consumer project with a large enough amount to leverage cash rewards to complete the next copyright acquisition plan.

Therefore, if you don’t like something, you must bite the bullet and like it.

If you can't find positive emotional feedback, you can only find it through hard work.

Under this general premise, Han Yi did not have high expectations for the reward multiplier he could get from purchasing a yacht.

He even thought that if he really didn't like it, and if the reward multiplier they gave was only a few tenths, he could mortgage the yacht directly after buying it, and use this method to obtain funds for other consumption, and finally raise enough Multiple copyright acquisition funds.

Fortunately, on the day of his personal sea trial, he had a FaceTime call with Barbara by chance.

A wonderful and unique journey through space helped him open up his mind and find a breakthrough for accumulating positive emotions.

The 160% return proves the feasibility of Barnier’s theory.

In the future, all consumption that allows Han Yi to show free will and have a significant impact on the historical process of a certain field should not be lower than this multiple.

Including the $1.5 million "Portrait of Madame Adele Bloch-Bauer No. [-]".

Since the life experience of the creator Gustav Klimt gave Han Yi a strong resonance and empathy, the refund ratio that can be obtained for this consumption should be much higher than that of the TV account.

How could Han Yi not be excited?

"Call Barbie, call Barbie."

"Barbs here."

"When are you going to Europe again?"

"I'm in Europe now."

Barbara raised her head and glanced at Karlie Kloss, Doutzen Kloss, Natasha Polly and Park Soo-joo, who were sitting across from the sofa and taking an intimate selfie together. Then she crossed her legs and put her phone away. He stood it up and held it closer to himself.

"I'm shooting a magazine cover in London, what's going on?"

Her job today is to shoot a November blockbuster for the fashion section of the Sunday Times. It was shot by the famous German photographer Alan von Unwerth. Nine models appeared, basically all of her level. world-class supermodel.

After work was over and they were flying all over the world, the girls, who had not been able to get together so neatly for a long time, came to the Sweeties Bar on the tenth floor of The Standard Hotel in London, where they enjoyed the night view of London looking south from King's Cross Station. While drinking and reminiscing.

"Nothing, I just want to tell you that I just officially bought that boat today."

"I know."

"you know?"

Han Yi, who was sitting in the office, was slightly startled when he saw Barbara's reply.

"How do you know? I just received the email that the transaction was completed."

"I saw the news."

"Is there any news?" Han Yi was even more surprised, "I also specifically requested that it be kept strictly confidential."

"It's true that your name is not written on it." Barbara flipped her thumbs on the keyboard of her mobile phone, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "But can I still not see it? Look."

Han Yi clicked on the index.hu link sent by Barbara and jumped out. What he saw was a huge high-definition photo of the TV number and a string of titles that he couldn't understand.

【Superyacht TV eladva a Cayman-szigeteki befektetnek】

I can understand superyachts, I can understand TV numbers, and I can understand the place name Cayman Islands. Putting them together, I can barely understand the general meaning of this news headline.

Superyacht TV sold to Cayman Islands...

"What does the last word mean?" Han Yi asked sincerely, "You know, my Hungarian is not proficient yet."

"Oops, wrong message!" Barbara on the other side of the screen couldn't help laughing, causing her supermodel friends to look sideways. "I'm looking for an English report, wait a minute..."

"I found it, look at this."

[BOAT International Exclusive: The luxury yacht “TV” was sold to a mysterious investor in the Cayman Islands for 9000 million euros, setting a record for the most expensive yacht sale in 2016]

[Peggy Leskin, October 2016, 10]

"So it's this kind of report." Han Yi breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought someone had found out my name."

"They may know at any time." Barbara threatened him, "Unfortunately, you told this secret to a person who needs to be interviewed frequently, and this person who needs to be interviewed frequently needs to give the media some fresh information. "

"so terrible."

"It's the end of the world for you."

"Is there no room for negotiation?"

"I'm not the kind of person who can be bribed."

"What if I really plan to bribe you?"

"Then I'd love to hear an offer. What are you going to offer?"

"How about unlimited free use of this yacht?"

"?"

Barbara Pavin's pupils shrank and she didn't know how to reply, so she subconsciously raised a question mark.

What does unlimited free use mean?
"This ship should be parked in the Port of Nice for a long time. If you go there for vacation, just tell me directly, or I will give you the captain's information. I will say hello to them in advance - Mi barco es tu barco. "

"Are you serious?"

"Yes, I'm serious." Han Yi replied, "I regard you as the founding partner of this yacht."

"How?" Barbara was even more confused.

"Without your story, I wouldn't have made up my mind to buy this yacht. So, of course, I have to thank you very much."

"Thank you for letting me take out 9000 million euros?"

"Which boy is it, Barbie?"

Observing Barbara covering her mouth and snickering happily, Carly raised her voice, attracting the attention of all the supermodels in the booth.

"You're as happy as if someone proposed to you via iMessage."

"Just a friend." Barbara put the phone upside down on her lap, spread her hands, and "told some interesting stories."

"Which friend, the one who picked you up for dinner in New York last time?" Narrowing her fox eyes, Carly grinned mischievously and said softly, "It's delicious."

"What, something happened to Barbie?" Park Xiuzhu, who had a close personal relationship with Barbara, was quite shocked. "When did it happen and with whom?"

"Barbie didn't let me say it." Carly blinked, "Maybe it hasn't been made public yet."

"I will personally execute you later, Carly." Barbara bared her teeth at Carly, "Wait until I finish talking... Girls, drink yours first. In 10 minutes, what do you want to ask me? It will be all right……"

"See if you can pry my mouth open."

After muttering the second half of the sentence in a low voice that only she could hear, Barbara continued to read the message Han Yi sent her.

"Yeah, it's a new life experience for me. I can't think of any other better way to share this experience with you."

"But what am I going to do with such a big yacht? I'm all alone..."

After thinking about it for a moment, Barbara deleted the entire sentence.

She didn't want to send the wrong signal to Han Yi.

"Haha, thanks, but such a big yacht, no matter where it goes, it should attract the attention of the entire yachting industry." After sending this sentence, Barbara paused for several seconds before writing the other end of the message, "If you don't want to be exposed prematurely, remember to block people sending messages to the Cayman Islands."

"Already received." Barbara said very cryptically, but Han Yi, who had just experienced Yachting Industry's intelligence capabilities yesterday, knew exactly what the Hungarian girl was talking about. On October 10, before the formal delivery of the TV yacht was completed, Waystone, a company recommended by Jordan Bromley to assist Han Yi in arranging the appointment of acting director for the memorandum company registered in the Cayman Islands, sent Jordan an email. mail.

The email mentioned that a "fashionable drinking water company" called 138 Water asked the TV number if it needed a new drinking water supplier.

After receiving the email, Jordan Bromley did not forward it, but directly called Han Yi.

"Drinking water supplier?" After receiving this call, Han Yi, who had just finished the music festival preparatory meeting, was a little confused, "I don't know... wait, why do you need to ask for my opinion on the drinking water supplier? "

Whether it's drinking water or the supply of raw materials for meals, shouldn't Antoine Gachet communicate with the captain about such trivial matters, and then let the remaining Sébastien-Alexander Slitin team handle it directly? Is that enough?

"Because, Yi..."

Without seeing the other person's face, Han Yi could picture Jordan Bromley leaning on the sofa in the office, rubbing the peak of his nose, trying to find the right words.

"There's no better way to put it... This fashionable drinking water company sells not drinking water, but fashion."

"You need to find a better way to put it for me though." Han Yi shook his head and laughed dryly, "Because I still don't understand."

"Okay, don't amp it up. 138 Water has two co-founders. One is Tyga, the rapper who is always on the verge of bankruptcy. The other one is Kris Jenner..."

"138 Water, no wonder." Barbara replied with a look of realization, "I thought it was an open secret in Hollywood."

"What did you say, yachting, or 138 Water?"

"Probably both."

"I know about Yachting, but this is my first time doing 138 Water."

In order not to reveal any flaws, Han Yi still lied a little in front of Barbara Pavin. In fact, before buying the TV account, Han Yi had never heard of the word yachting... In other words, in his English vocabulary, yachthing had only one meaning, and that was yachting.

Cruising, fishing, and rowing are all part of yachting.

But in Hollywood, Wall Street, and all industries that bring together wealth and beauty, yachting has another meaning.

What does it mean?
It is very troublesome to explain it seriously, but in general, it can be summarized with a four-character Chinese noun: Haitian Feast.

Yachting, one of the biggest open secrets in the entertainment industry, is considered a common method for young female stars to increase their income, increase their visibility in the industry, and increase their competitiveness. Many A-list celebrities, including models, actors, and even members of the royal family, have been involved in yachting at one point or another in their careers.

If you're not familiar with the term, yachting is a business event in which celebrities and wealthy clients are paid a handsome sum of money to spend time together, usually on a superyacht. Happy time has multiple connotations, and the details that everyone wants to achieve are different, but generally speaking, they all reach the same goal through different paths.

On the surface, yachting is not a direct sex trade - rich people will give celebrities a sum of money, five or six figures, and use the Cannes Film Festival as a cover, which is the annual event with the highest concentration of stars, to invite them. They come to the party, greet the guests, and graciously accept when someone wants to take a photo. It's that simple. But usually, celebrities will provide more in-depth services in order to get more rewards and a broader future.

After all, superyacht owners are more or less powerful in the entertainment industry. Either it's someone like David Geffen who directly controls a large entertainment group, or it's a media giant like Azkalaga who has ties to the entertainment industry, or simply someone like Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. Class, "the master behind the entertainment industry" who is in charge of a trillion-dollar national sovereign fund.

If these people are willing to lend a helping hand, with just a little lift of their fingertips, the development trajectories of stars can change dramatically.

Think about it, a fledgling Han Yi can turn Madison Beer from a washed-up child star who was terminated by the record company to a queen who has topped the Billboard singles chart for three consecutive years.

So what can a wealthy businessman like MBZ, who straddles both political and business circles, has hands and eyes as far as the sky, and can control ADIA at will, do?
To put it another way, even if the rich have no interest in intervening in the career of their temporary bed partners and just provide them with some hard work expenses, this money can bring about a great improvement in their economic situation.

Emily Ratajkowski, the famous "Blurred Lines" girl, is an active member of the yachting industry. In 2016, she was charged $25000 to attend a similar private event, and that was just the appearance fee. If you want to have something happen with her, you have to pay several times that price.

For ordinary people, it is simply a sky-high price, but in the face of wealth at the level of sovereign funds, only fresh flesh is so cheap.

Super yachts, private jets, private companies... which one is not more expensive than them?

They are all bitches waiting to be bought.

Price is the only thing that matters.

In the world of the top spire, this secret society firmly controlled by a handful of men, misogyny is not a noun, but a reality.

This is a hunger game that uses fame and fortune as bait to hunt for beautiful youth. Everyone knows this, but year after year, countless women still come forward to participate in this card game where winning or losing has long been determined.

Some people feel that they are smart enough to control this complex situation and survive alone.

Some people don't care whether they win or lose. As long as they go to the poker table, they can win back in other ways.

There are also some people who don't serve at the table themselves, but just stand aside and introduce the prey enthusiastically, hoping to receive the chips thrown in by the high rollers.

Kris Jenner and Tyga are such people.

The fashionable drinking water brand they founded, 138 Water, appears to be a company that sells water, but it is actually in the business of selling women.

Clicking on their Instagram page, all you see are scantily clad photos of young women. Except for each of them holding a bottle of 138 Water, the entire content, from the picture to the copy, has nothing to do with drinking water. relation.

"Join us in celebrating the unstoppable energy and incredible atmosphere of Miss Universe Europe Champion Nina Sweet!"

“Get ready for a visual feast that will leave you craving for more!”

"Hold on tight because Nina is about to take you on a new journey to the top!"

Is this an advertisement for drinking water?
"You should have seen the list they provided, right?" Barbara asked cryptically.

"I see."

"What do you think?"

"Sickeningly shocking."

Bella Hadid, Gigi Hadid, Jelena Shayk, Emily Rakotarski, Hailey Baldwin.

Countless supermodels with shining auras are all in this list.

Han Yi immediately understood why Irina Shayk, who had no acting experience, could directly partner with Dwayne Johnson to star in the movie heroine in 2014.

Not only that, the lengthy list even includes Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, and Kendall Jenner.

Kris Jenner's three daughters.

Think again that Tyga was Kelly's ex-boyfriend...

The so-called "media package" sent to him by Jordan Bromley from 138 Water did make Han Yi feel a little physically uncomfortable.

His simple Eastern values ​​cannot understand such avant-garde family relationships.

"This is why I don't want to arrange my entertainment on the yacht." Barbara wrote, "This is why I always keep Mrs. Bettencourt in my heart to thank... Without her, I would most likely She will also be one of the Yacht Girls."

"Now, at least I have the freedom to choose."

"I understand."

The more he has, the more clearly Han Yi can see. In this world of sensuality and life and death, there are too many opportunities, too many enjoyments, and too many temptations. Let go of your vain self-esteem and shame, use your beauty to win favor, use favor in exchange for transactions, and then use transactions to cash in a better life. , in Western societies that have long been disenchanted with sex, it is a choice that does not require excessive hesitation.

Don't hesitate, how many girls dream of getting a chance to set up a TV account?

Girls who are not so lucky work as nightclub atmosphere models in Las Vegas, and girls who seize the opportunity can party with the rich and famous on super yachts. Only the most beautiful and smartest girls have the opportunity to climb high branches and become a phoenix.

Such as Grace Kelly.

Is this stunner who sleeps all over Hollywood really much more noble than those Instagram supermodels whose mothers personally put them on yachts?
Evaluate the situation and take what you need.

Meghan Markle, the royal daughter-in-law-to-be who started dating Prince Harry this summer, doesn’t she often appear on luxury yachts in the South of France?
For these ambitious souls, it is just a matter of dedicating their bodies to one person or multiple people.

"Then next time I'm in Europe, I'll invite you on board."

"Yachting for other people, a big no-no. Yachting for Yi, no problem." Barbara replied teasingly. After being in contact with him for such a long time, Barbara knew very well what kind of person Han Yi was.

He is also fascinated by the beauty of women, but takes every relationship seriously.

He could have everything in the simplest way, but he chose the most difficult path.

Whether it's because of his nature or because it's still undeveloped, at least Han Yi is a rare treasure now.

"That's not what I meant." Han Yi defended himself, "I won't see those things on my yacht. It's a pure cultural and food trip...other than that, there is nothing."

"Oh, is it?"

"It's absolutely true."

"I remember someone...imagined doing something with me on this yacht? I forgot, could you remind me?"

"The invitation has been withdrawn. Let's meet at a less sexy place, like IHOP... IHOP at seven o'clock on Monday morning."

"Hahahahahaha, this is easy to achieve."

Seeing that her hearty laughter attracted Carly's sneaky attention, Barbara quickly silenced her voice and concentrated on typing.

"Mad City, are you there? My girls and I are going."
