Now that we are reborn, who still wants to be an honest person?

New Year.

It started snowing in Sukyung.

At the table, Tang Tang frowned slightly, as if she had encountered an important problem that needed to be solved urgently.

After struggling for a while, Tang Tang nodded affirmatively:
"Sister Yihe's method is still correct."

"You can't cook tripe for too long, or it will become tough. The time Sister Yihe mentioned is just right. It's already cooked, but it still retains its crispness."

Next to Tang Tang.

There are also Fang Qinglin, Luo Yihe, Fang Zhou and others.

It was New Year's Day holiday and it snowed again in Sujing, so there wasn't much fun to do outside.

A few people came to Zijin Club to find some activities.

I made a bet with Meng Bin before.

After taking over Meng Bin's shares in his own club, Fang Zhou became the largest shareholder of Zijin Club.

There are many entertainment activities here, and it is also a good place to relax.

Also coming this time.

After I got familiar with this place, I found out that there is a hot spring here, also halfway up the mountain.

Zijin Club is not just a building.

It's a complex of buildings.

Among them is a hot spring room, which is halfway up the mountain.

Although it is not natural, the entire water supply system is well made and no traces can be seen.

There is also a glass sunroom outside. When it snows outside in winter, you can soak in the hot springs and enjoy the snow scenery. It is more comfortable than the hot springs in Tangshan before.

At this moment, several people had just finished taking a hot spring bath.

Enjoy hot pot on the terrace.

Through the glass of the sunroom, you can see the entire view of Purple Mountain.

It was snowing heavily outside, but they were soaking in the hot springs and eating hot pot in the house, which was quite like the luxurious life of an old landlord.

People who came here before really enjoyed themselves.

I had a piece of fresh cut beef.

Tang Tang narrowed her eyes:
"It's so comfortable."

“It’s more enjoyable to eat hot pot with more people.”

"Qinghetang has been on the right track lately. The store is packed with people every day, thanks to the big stars who came to the store to help promote it."

“Now many outsiders come here.”

“It’s not tourism.”

"I saw it online and came to Sujing specifically to see our store. This internet-famous check-in spot is really interesting."

"It's just that the dolls in our store are consumed too quickly."

"Sun Ying's second aunt delivers goods almost every day."

“I’m almost late.”

"Even though it's like this, there still doesn't seem to be much profit. The success rate is still too high."

"I think some people are just coming to our store to buy goods."

The yellow throat on the Ark chopsticks was dipped in dry sauce.

Put it into your mouth and say:

"I never expected this store to make money from claw machines."

"Just let people know."

"The IP is in our hands."

“There will be other opportunities to make money later.”

Fang Qinglin and the other three nodded.

At this stage.

Most people don’t care that much about the concept of IP.

However, Fang Zhou has mentioned it several times before, and the situation on the novel website is the same, and they pay great attention to copyright issues.

Before, they didn't quite understand what this meant.

But during this period of time.

The situation encountered in the novel "Ghost Blows Out the Light" made them understand the reasons for Fang Zhou's previous actions and gave them a more intuitive understanding of IP operations.

In addition to the "Ghost Blows Out the Light" movie that Qihang Media has already launched.

The TV series copyright was also sold not long ago.

And these days.

A company in Shanghai contacted Ark.

They want to build a "Ghost Blows Out the Light" themed amusement park, so naturally they need authorization from the novel website, which is also another source of income.

These are all from a novel.

When several people were discussing.

Zhao Xiaotong knocked on the door and came in.

When he came in, he was staring at his phone. I don’t know what interesting he saw, but he couldn’t stop smiling.

I saw a few people sitting there eating hot pot.

Zhao Xiaotong waved to Fang Zhou:

"Silky Brother."

"How did you come up with such a charming dance?"

As he spoke, Zhao Xiaotong waved the phone in his hand towards the four people over there, causing Fang Zhou to roll his eyes.

Luo Yihe suppressed a smile and said:
"Sister Xiaotong."

"Ark is also providing a platform to guide everyone. Right now, that dance is the most popular online. Many people are following the trend online. We've even seen people dancing it in real parks."

“It’s so popular now.”

Hear this.

Fang Qinglin and Tang Tang covered their mouths and laughed.

In order to prototype the fun platform, Fang Zhou previously released a lot of videos.

At first, there were some difficult challenges, then some kung fu performance videos, and later, some magical dance videos.

Among them is a dance video called Subject Three.

It became a big hit on the Internet.

The Ark doesn't matter.

I posted all the dances that I remembered from my previous life online.

Anyway, he never shows his face and wears a mask when doing these things, so he doesn't have any psychological burden.

However, if you do this in front of strangers, they will exclaim "Oh my God!"

And if the person who sees the video is someone you know.

That’s “What the hell???”

With Ark's agility and body flexibility.

The smoothness of Subject Three has been elevated to another dimension, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as "soft as boneless".

After a burst of exclamations online, Fang Zhou was given the nickname "Silky Brother".

Anyway.

Now the account "Lao Fang" has become a big internet celebrity.

The effect is also obvious, and many people on the Internet imitate Subject 3.

But in the end, it can't surpass the Ark version.

And the funny platform.

It has gradually integrated into everyone's life.

When he got to the table and saw the pot bubbling, Zhao Xiaotong exclaimed:
"You guys have already eaten, but you didn't even wait for me."

"It's a waste that I'm still fighting for everyone."

According to the knowledge she had just learned, Tang Tang made a small dish of tripe for Zhao Xiaotong.

Asked curiously:
"Is the matter over?"

"What did those people say? How many people want to transfer their shares in the Purple Gold Hall?"

Although the previous bet was made between Fang Zhou and Meng Bin, and the shares transferred by Meng Bin were also in Fang Zhou's hands, Fang Zhou still let Zhao Xiaotong take charge of the affairs of the Zijin Club.

A thing she was interested in.

another one.

She is more suitable for this job.

Given Fang Zhou's personality, he might not be able to handle it.

Zhao Xiaotong also understood Fang Zhou's meaning. After obtaining the shares of Zijin Club, he immediately cancelled some of the previous projects there.

Although some people are dissatisfied.

But there is nothing we can do about Zhao Xiaotong's decision.

It’s not that their combined shares are less than Ark’s.

But those things before were all gray industries and could not withstand scrutiny.

For those things, consent requires the approval of everyone.

And one person objected.

It becomes difficult to continue.

What's more, it was Zhao Xiaotong who raised the objection.

Zhao Xiaotong also said:

"Those who are willing to continue to have fun can continue to hold shares in the Zijin Club. Those who don't want to play can withdraw their shares and leave. I will keep all the orders."

Zhao Xiaotong was downstairs just now.

Just discuss this matter with the shareholders of Zijin Club.

The Zijin Club was valued at 38 million yuan, and Zhao Xiaotong recovered a total of 10% of the shares, plus the previous %, which is almost half.

Think about the results of the negotiation just now.

Zhao Xiaotong sighed:
"In just a short while, nearly 200 million yuan was spent."

"This money is really not worth spending."

"But Mr. Shen didn't come. He holds 8% of the shares of the Purple Gold Club. If we can get his shares, it will be more secure."

Tang Tang was a little confused:

"Those people used to hold onto the shares of the Purple Gold Club."

"Now that Meng Bin has withdrawn, they have also withdrawn. It seems that they don't believe in our abilities." Qinghetang is now operating very successfully. Classmate Tang Tang has gained an inexplicable sense of self-confidence, which seems to be a bit like giving orders to others.

Zhao Xiaotong smiled and said:
"You can't say that."

"Those guys used to play pretty hard."

"The Purple Gold Hall has become a mess."

"Some decent people."

“I don’t like coming here at all.”

"I'm just afraid that I won't get to eat the mutton, but will end up getting into trouble."

"They used to have some card tables at the Purple Gold Hall, and they were quite active, and they put some messy things on them. Now they've all been cancelled."

“I just quit because it felt boring.”

"Of course."

"This was also instigated by Su Junqiu."

"Su Junqiu also set up a private club."

"Before, Meng Bin was here. Su Junqiu couldn't refuse Meng Bin's face, so he only invited some people who were close to him personally."

"Now that Meng Bin is not here, he took the opportunity to pull everyone over."

“I heard that they also let those people invest.”

This is forming a small group.

It is similar in nature to the Zijin Club.

However, before, the Zijin Club was centered around Meng Bin.

If Meng Bin had left, Su Junqiu might have become the next mountain king by relying on the Su family.

Some time ago, the Su family announced that business matters had been handed over to Su Junqiu.

Originally, those people were quite convinced of Su Junqiu.

pity.

An Ark suddenly appeared.

Fang Zhou's family background is nothing to be afraid of.

But this guy is a little weird. He has amazing business skills, but he is even crazier than Meng Bin.

An ordinary madman would be feared by others.

What’s more, it’s an Ark.

Now, because of Pei Qingyao and Zhao Xiaotong, both the Pei family and the Zhao family have been quietly tied to his chariot.

If the Ark is taken by legitimate means.

There is nothing much to say between the two families.

But you have to use some tricks.

Those two families will not agree.

So Su Junqiu had no choice but to start a new business, threatening to take those young masters to make money and pull everyone over.

Although I know that this is probably something "fun" from Su Junqiu.

But those people are gone.

Zhao Xiaotong still felt a little unhappy.

Fang Zhou said calmly:

"You're only talking about one side of the story."

"Another reason is that those guys all look poor and have never seen much money."

"Your price of 500 million exceeded their expectations."

"One point is five million."

"Each of them can get 10 or 20 million, but there's nothing to do here, so they might as well take some cash."

"This is money I can spend on my own, so it's natural to be tempted."

There are only Fang Zhou and his friends.

He showed disdain to those people who were blinded by money when they saw tens of millions.

Only this feeling appeared in these people.

And it seems natural.

Tang Tang and Fang Qinglin had no idea about money.

As for Luo Yihe.

A few thousand or tens of thousands is fine.

Tens of millions or even hundreds of millions are still just numbers to her.

The most important point is that they have been with Fang Ark for some time, and under his influence, they feel that making money is not a particularly difficult thing.

Even Luo Yihe was influenced by this idea.

Fang Ark changed the subject:
"actually."

"I also want to thank Su Junqiu."

"Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy to acquire shares in the Purple Gold Club."

"Most of the remaining ones who didn't agree to transfer their shares are businessmen, not those second-generation rich kids selling permits, right?"

Ok?
Several people looked at Fang Zhou in surprise.

He had said before that the Zijin Club was not worth anything and that it was built up by those people.

Why do you look like you got a bargain now?

Zhao Xiaotong nodded a little confused.

Luo Yihe asked curiously:

"So, you deliberately shut down the Purple Gold Hall's projects to force them to leave?"

Zhao Xiaotong also looked at Fang Zhou speechlessly:
"You said that before."

"Meng Bin's shares in the Purple Gold Club are worth nothing!"

Fang Zhou waved his hand and said:
"If it's only 10%, it's really not worth much."

"But now that those second-generation rich have withdrawn their shares and we have reached nearly half of the shares, the situation is different."

"You must know where this is. This is Purple Gold Mountain!"

"At that special time."

"Those people took advantage of the policy loopholes and seized this land."

"Don't say anything else."

"Just these hundreds of acres of land."

"It is almost impossible to get this land now."

"Before, the shares were dispersed and in the hands of second-generation rich people. It was impossible to use the land for other purposes. The value of the land was negligible."

"It's a different situation now."

Several people looked at Fang Zhou with some confusion.

Tang Tang, Fang Qinglin and Luo Yihe did not quite understand the value of this piece of land.

As for Zhao Xiaotong...

She also belongs to the second-generation rich industry.

They really don't care much about land. As long as it's a piece of land that can be sold, it's much easier for them to get it than for others.

Those are the ones that cannot be sold in principle.

Just go and make it work.

Then you can add "but" after "in principle".

The Zijin Club was built on land that Meng Bin and his team had acquired through operations. Mr. Shen, whom Zhao Xiaotong just mentioned, took the lead and invested with some businessmen to build the Zijin Club.

The businessman provides the money and the second-generation rich use the connections.

After the Zijin Club was built, everyone sat in a row and divided the profits. Those who contributed money and effort each received shares.

In this matter, Meng Bin contributed the most by leveraging his connections with the Meng family.

Take the most shares.

Just as Fang Ark said.

Those second-generation rich people have really never seen money.

In their eyes, the Zijin Club is just a place for daily entertainment.

Now that the fun stuff inside is gone, there is a better alternative outside, and you can also get some money, so it is easy to decide what to do.

Seeing that Tang Tang and the others still looked confused.

Fang Zhou waved his hand and said:
"If those people continue to be here, they will become an unstable factor."

"It's a good thing that we cleaned it up all at once this time. From now on, it will be used as a pure leisure center."

"Even if no one comes, we can use it as our company's event venue in the future. This place is so big, it's quite good for holding events."

Ark's words.

No one else had any objections.

There are now several companies under the name of Ark.

Without counting the convenient bicycle field staff and partners, there are already several hundred employees in total. If you count everyone, the number of people will be too many.

It seems reasonable to have another venue for activities like this.

It's just a little bit luxurious.

Tang Tang remembered something:

"ark."

“There’s a reaction from our fans.”

"There's a recent anime series online that uses the Capybara as its prototype. Although the image has been modified, it's still quite similar."

Fang Zhou said indifferently:

"It should be a small company, or just a studio."

“Big companies don’t do that.”

“Also pay attention to copyright.”

“I generally wouldn’t take that risk.”

Tang Tang nodded:

"I didn't care."

"But you mentioned before that we need to maintain copyright issues, so I reminded you of this, and the operators are more aware of this."

"The producer of that anime seems to be called Chocolate Animation Studio."

"The name is quite interesting." (End of this chapter)
