Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 1039 What a good luck
Seeing Jingxi being so well behaved, Chu Xiangqian laughed and kissed his daughter on the little face.

Then he looked at Old Man Tang and said, "I have already handed over all the investment matters to Lanlan.

And I heard from Lanlan that the conversation went well, didn't it? Why did you ask me to come all the way here?"

Tang Lianxin's face changed slightly and he was silent for a few seconds. He thought to himself that it seemed that there was no point in persuading him about attracting investment.

Based on his understanding of Chu Xiangqian, since he had clearly stated that the investment in China should be handed over to Xue Jinglan.

And Xue Jinglan's identity meant that she was more likely to be more inclined towards the Celestial Empire than Chu Xiangqian during the negotiations.

If I talk to Chu Xiangqian again and Xue Jinglan finds out, some of the investments that have already been confirmed may change.

If that's the case, I'll be the one holding everyone back.

Even sinners.

In fact, there will be a few stingers that quietly appear in the hands of the Celestial Empire.

All I can do is watch and get no benefit at all.

Chu Xiangqian thought about this and asked tentatively, "I want 10 Type and Type automatic rifles and million rounds of ammunition. How long will it take for them to be given to me?"

Tang Lianxin was immediately shocked by the number.

If this batch of weapons fell into the hands of a small country, it would be able to fight several large-scale battles.

However, Tang Lianxin still subconsciously asked, "What price are you going to give us?"

Chu Xiangqian shrugged, "We are family. Magnesium Grasshopper quoted me a price of 190 US dollars for an AK.

After deducting shipping costs and the additional fees required to purchase levels, I can make about $60 per game.

I bought it from Polar Bear for $120.

So I won’t waste any time, just like Polar Bear, $120 a piece.

As for the bullets, they are $1 each."

After hearing this, Tang Lianxin's breathing became heavy.

But in fact, even though Chu Xiangqian had no intention of making money from weapons, the weapons he shipped to the Afghan people were all bolt-action rifles from World War II.

Then he kept the AK and bullets, planning to find a suitable opportunity to sell them to flour merchants in South America.

The profit from one in and one out is not $60, but at least $.

And the biggest source of money comes from bullets.

According to the Celestial Empire's production costs, this batch of weapons and ammunition would cost at most nine million Celestial Empire coins.

If you resell it, you can make four times the profit based on the official exchange rate.

Not to mention, this business was a US dollar transaction, a full 1700 million US dollars.

Even if Tang Lianxin didn't want to agree, his superiors would not agree.

But Chu Xiangqian thought about it and decided that giving money was not as good as bartering.

Although China lacks foreign exchange, after obtaining the foreign exchange, it actually has to spend money to buy foreign goods that are in short supply.

So when he heard that Chu Xiangqian had a way to get magnesium crickets on the market and sell them.

Tang Lianxin couldn't sit still any longer.

Many of the items on the embargo list imposed by China and Europe are not actually particularly confidential.

Such as some civilian machine tools, chips, storage sticks, even function calculators, and the personal computer launched by IBM this year.

In the market between Europe and the United States, it is a commodity that can be bought and sold freely.

But in China, these things are fun things that you can’t buy even if you want to.

For Chu Xiangqian, since it is an ordinary commodity that can be bought and sold at will, he can purchase it in Europe and the United States, use the game warehouse, and easily bring it back to China.

There is no need to worry about being discovered by the Central Bureau or the Military Bureau.

Tang Lianxin and Chu Xiangqian agreed to meet again tomorrow to continue discussing what magnesium goods they needed.

After watching Chu Xiangqian and his daughter get into Zhang Haiyang's car, he immediately went to the palace to report to the elders.

When the elder heard that Tang Lianxin had negotiated a $1700 million deal with Chu Xiangqian in his first meeting after returning to work, he couldn't help but look at him differently.

However, in the past two years, the elder has also read many top-secret files related to Chu Xiangqian.

Knowing that Chu Xiangqian is extremely cautious and conservative, it can even be said that he is not afraid of foreigners discovering that he is a spy.

Instead, he was afraid that his own people would know what he had done for the Celestial Empire in the past, so he only liked to deal with people he was familiar with and trusted.

This was a good thing, but it did make both the new elders and the old elders feel angry.

But reality told the new elder that betrayal from one's own people was indeed more deadly.

As for the enemies, perhaps for Chu Xiangqian, enough money could also make the European and American intelligence agencies turn a blind eye to him.

The fact that the polar bear dared to sell him weapons and ammunition to use to fight his own frontline soldiers has already shown that money can indeed make people bow their heads.

And making money is Chu Xiangqian's advantage.

This guy has only been away from China for 19 years, but he has already become a world-class billionaire.

This year, he spent $9 million on shopping.

He then sold the shipping company's business and ships, as well as the leasing of four container terminals, and made $18 billion.

With one investment and one withdrawal, he doubled his profit. This ability to make money is really impressive.

So when the elder asked Tang Lianxin to exchange weapons and ammunition for his own things, he agreed without much hesitation.

He also asked someone to secretly collect what he urgently needed and what were the in-demand items that were easy to get in the European and American markets.

Chu Xiangqian was not in a hurry to go home. Before getting up in the morning, he dragged Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu to do morning exercises together.

The two women must still be sleeping soundly at this time.

It would be better to take Jingxi to visit her second uncle and third uncle for lunch.

By the way, since today is Sunday, I called Jingrong and Jingyu and asked them if they had time to have dinner together at the restaurant in Qianmen Dashilan.

I didn't expect Jingrong to not come, using the excuse that he had something to do at school.

When Jingyu came, he was accompanied by a girl named Zheng Baoyi.

As soon as she saw Chu Xiangqian, Baoyi's face suddenly showed a bright smile.

Chu Xiangqian glared at Jingyu fiercely, and Jingyu sighed helplessly in his heart.

I didn't want to do this either, but today is Sunday. When I got the call from my dad, Sister Baoyi was right next to me, so I immediately followed her.

Moreover, the Qianmen courtyard was too close to the restaurants in Dazhalan, so there was no chance or time to tip off.

As for why Chu Xiangqian avoided Baoyi, it was naturally because the little girl had grown up, but she was still the same as when she was little and always loved to pester him.

There are signs of more than just family affection.

Without Zheng Shufen saying anything, Chu Xiangqian started avoiding this girl.

After a long time, everyone in the family knew about it.

But Chu Xiangqian couldn't say it out loud, and he was even more afraid that if he really said it out loud, Baoyi would ignore it and really say something that broke the taboo. That would be a bad ending.

Jingxi, Baoyi and Jingyu had met each other more than ten days ago. The little girl had been upgraded to level 5 since she was young, with a physical fitness of +5, so like her brothers and sisters, she was much smarter than other children of the same age.

So when I saw Jingyu and Baoyi, I didn't feel any strangeness.

However, when Baoyi clapped her hands and wanted to hug the little guy, Jingxi didn't give her face and hugged his father's neck tightly with both hands.

The little face also hid in Chu Xiangqian's arms, unwilling to leave him.

Baoyi curled her lips and looked at the little guy with some envy.

Thinking back to when I was a child, I was just like Jingxi, always pestering my godfather to hold me.

A trace of nostalgia and tenderness flashed in his eyes.

But Chu Xiangqian was terrified, fearing that the girl would suddenly go crazy and say or do something that she shouldn't say or do.

Fortunately, Baoyi knew that no matter how much she wished, it would be impossible for her to get what she wanted.

His eyes dimmed for a moment, but after a while, he smiled again. He sat with Jingyu and talked to Chu Xiangqian with a smile on his face.

During this period, she has come into contact with many people from the film and television circles in Beijing.

Jingrong is interested in making movies, which has a lot to do with Baoyi.

When Baoyi was a child, she took Jingrong to play the roles of children in many movies.

However, after Baoyi grew up, although she still took on acting roles, she mostly worked as a producer.

Zheng Shufen also intended to train her to take over and manage the film studio and the cinema.

Chu Xiangqian naturally had no objection to this, and even hoped that Baoyi would help her mother Zheng Shufen more.

Zheng Shufen is indeed capable, but the more capable she is, the more work Chu Xiangqian will give her.

To put it bluntly, the mother and daughter are still working like slaves for Chu Xiangqian.

After Baoyi finished talking about the movie, she also shared many interesting stories about her time with the crew of "Journey to the West".

Chu Xiangqian certainly didn't have time to keep an eye on the filming of Journey to the West, and Xue Jinglan and the others were even less willing to get involved in such a small matter.

Therefore, the filming of this TV series was basically supervised by people from Jade Channel.

After Zheng Shufen found out, she simply let Baoyi join in.

While training her more, we also cultivate her connections and circle of friends in the mainland.

Based on Zheng Shufen's understanding of Chu Xiangqian, she knew that her man had a strong and special feeling for the mainland.

As long as you achieve some success in the mainland, you will inevitably benefit from Baoyi.

As for her daughter's emotional issues, Zheng Shufen, as a mother, has already said what she should have said.

She could only hope that Chu Xiangqian would be more reliable in this matter, otherwise she really didn't know how to face Chu Xiangqian and Baoyi.

Fortunately, Chu Xiangqian had indeed been avoiding Baoyi, and gradually everyone felt relieved.

Since they were talking about Journey to the West, Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but tell Baoyi some more things to pay attention to.

He also said with a smile that if nothing unexpected happens, this drama will be very popular not only in China.

Chinese cultural circles such as Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and Japan will also cause a viewing boom.

The income from overseas copyrights alone may be 20 to 30 million Hong Kong dollars each year.

Moreover, as time goes by, continuous rebroadcasting can ensure that copyright income continues for many years.

Baoyi and Jingyu had long blindly trusted Chu Xiangqian's words.

Baoyi now became more interested in Journey to the West.

Then he mentioned that he had received an investment invitation.

She said that when she was chatting with a few friends yesterday, they mentioned a movie called Shaolin Temple and wanted to ask her to invest in it.

Then give her the overseas copyright.

Now it was Chu Xiangqian's turn to be surprised.

But think about it, this movie was filmed in 82, released that year, and then started the myth of the number of moviegoers in mainland China.

It was released in Hong Kong Island and sold 1616 million Hong Kong dollars.

It set a new box office record for Hong Kong kung fu films.

The box office was also high in Southeast Asian countries.

Therefore, as long as you get the overseas copyright, it is not difficult to earn tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

Chu Xiangqian pretended to think about it for a while before asking Baoyi, "How much do you need to invest?

Also, do you have enough money?"

Baoyi's face lit up with joy.

When she was five years old, her parents divorced, and when she met Chu Xiangqian, the girl gradually began to rely on him.

Therefore, Baoyi was very familiar with some of Chu Xiangqian's habits and even his tone of voice.

He could even easily hear Chu Xiangqian's subconscious meaning.

He nodded quickly, "I definitely have enough money. If it's not enough, I'll ask my uncle for more."

Jingyu is also a smart girl. When she heard what her father said, she realized that her father must be optimistic about this movie called Shaolin Temple.

With a roll of his eyes, he pulled Baoyi and said, "Sister, how about we each pay half and take 50% of the investment share of this movie.

How about we each share the overseas copyright in half?"

Baoyi rolled her eyes at her sister who was nine years younger than her.

Even though Jingyu is only 16 years old this year, she is very well-behaved in front of Chu Xiangqian.

But when Chu Xiangqian was not around, the little girl often fooled Baoyi and her aunt Aiqiu.

The children born to Aiguo, Aimin and Shazhu, no matter whether they were older or younger than Jingyu, were all fooled by her and followed her lead.

Baoyi and Aiqiu often think that they are smart people.

So the more they were fooled by Jingyu, the angrier they felt, but they could do nothing about Jingyu.

Except that Jingyu is indeed smarter than the two of them in many things.

Also because Jingyu is younger than the two of them in terms of generation.

And everyone knows that Jingyu is not only Chu Xiangqian’s most precious treasure.

The elders in the family also love her very much.

If Jingyu went to Zheng Shufen and Second Aunt, Ai Qiu's biological mother, to complain that the two of them bullied her.

The unlucky ones are Baoyi and Aiqiu.

However, the most precious thing in Chu Xiangqian's heart now should be the little baby Jingxi.
