Chapter 105 Ten Years Later, a Billionaire's Net Worth and Weiwei Start the Game

(The previous chapter has been reviewed, please wait a moment)
Nvidia! The semiconductor giant!
It is a leading company in the global field of artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Santa Clara, California, USA, it was co-founded by Jensen Huang, Chris Malakowski, and Curtis Prim.

The company initially focused on graphics processing technology and launched the world's first GPU (graphics processing unit) GeForce 256 in 1999, which revolutionized the way computer graphics are rendered.

With technological iteration, NVIDIA has gradually expanded its business to fields such as artificial intelligence, data centers, and autonomous driving. Its CUDA architecture provides developers with an efficient parallel computing platform, becoming one of the core technologies driving the AI ​​revolution.

它在1999年1月22日在纳斯达克证券交易所上市，IPO发行价为每股12美元，首日收盘价飙升至19.69美元，市值达到6.26亿美元。

However, affected by the bursting of the dot-com bubble and industry competition, the company's stock price experienced sharp fluctuations in the early 2000s, and once fell to $7.2 in 2002.

It is now 2015, and its current stock price is $21.

Jiang Ye didn't play the stock market much in his previous life, but he knew about this famous stock and had read many reports about it.

In other words, Jiang Ye currently has 8500 million, which is equivalent to 1338 million US dollars, enough to buy 63 shares.

Subsequently, the equity was split twice, once to 1:4 and once to 1:10!

The stock split is around 40 times, plus the exchange rate difference.

In 2025, its stock price was $182.7.

He doesn't have to do anything; by August 2025, his assets will have increased approximately 360 times, reaching $48.16 billion.

Of course, this is theoretically the best investment strategy...

Jiang Ye certainly won't be able to wait until 2025 for it to reach its peak...

But this is the foundation of his future confidence.

He can participate in some big productions every two years. If he doesn't have money, he can mortgage his stocks and redeem them when he has money.

In addition, there are quarterly dividends, which means he also has pocket money!

He hired a lawyer three months in advance and registered a company called Jiangying Capital Limited in Hong Kong.

Simultaneously, we submitted company registration documents, directors' passports, and proof of funds to UBS Hong Kong to complete the opening of offshore accounts.

Through the process of domestic guarantee for overseas loan, RMB 8500 million was converted into USD 1338 million at an exchange rate of 1:6.35 and was properly deposited into the escrow account.

After signing the W-8BEN form and opening a direct connection to Nasdaq, funds are transferred to the trading account in real time, making the account eligible for US stock investment.

For the next few days, Jiang Ye spent almost all his time in front of UBS Hong Kong's online trading system.

The funds are now safely stored in the trading account.

He didn't rush to dump it all at once.

The US stock market opens late at night in mainland China. Jiang Ye sets three alarms and sits in front of his computer every morning at the crack of dawn, watching Nvidia's stock price fluctuate at $21.

He broke down his total holdings into dozens of limit orders, each containing between 1 and 2 shares, and placed them during the peak liquidity period half an hour after the market opened.

I bought 15 shares on the first day.

The next day, taking advantage of a slight pullback during the trading session, I bought another 22 shares, with the average transaction price remaining stable at $20.79.

Late on the third day, when the last transaction of 20 shares was completed, the system popped up a confirmation of the holdings, and 63 Nvidia shares were registered under Jiangying Capital's custody account.

A year after his rebirth, the groundwork has finally been laid.

As the sky outside the window began to lighten, Jiang Ye shut down the trading system, stood up, and let out a long sigh of relief.

This decade-long capital strategy has finally laid its first crucial piece.

He, Jiang Ye, is a future billionaire!

……

September 7th, East China University of Political Science and Law, Songjiang University Town, Shanghai
Afternoon sunlight filtered through the leaves of the plane trees and dappled the campus path. Director Lin Yufen sat behind the monitor, intently watching the screen.

Yang Yang, who plays Xiao Nai, walks slowly towards the library with one hand in his pocket. His white shirt flutters gently in the breeze, and his cool and aloof demeanor draws gasps from the students watching.

At this point, Yang Yang wasn't as narcissistic, so he didn't appear greasy...

"Stuck! This one passed!"

Lin Yufen nodded in satisfaction, then turned to the assistant director and instructed, "Prepare for the next scene: Bei Weiwei and Xiao Nai's library scene together."

The production team of "Love O8O" started filming on August 23, and Jiang Ye, who was originally listed as the assistant director, has been promoted to director by Juku Culture.

This drama will be co-directed by Lin Yufen and Jiang Ye.

The reason is simple: Si Teng's sudden popularity made money for one of the investors, Juku Culture!

It was both a gesture of goodwill and an attempt to ride the wave of his status as a "hit director".

However, when filming began, director Jiang Ye was in the hospital after being poisoned...

In the rest area under the shade of a tree, Meng Ziyi sat on a folding chair, munching on half a mung bean popsicle and swinging her legs.

Today, she was wearing the red game costume from the play, her thick, long curly hair fluttering in the wind, as bright as a small flame.

"Xiaotong, you've been hiding this really well."

She leaned close to Mao Xiaotong's ear and teased, "When the Weibo hot search exploded a few days ago, I was wondering if it was you, but then I saw that Chen Xiang posted a photo to officially announce it."

Mao Xiaotong was dressed as "Erxi" today, with playful pigtails hanging over the shoulders of her light blue denim overalls. Her cheeks flushed slightly when she heard this, and she reached out and patted Meng Ziyi's arm lightly: "I'm not hiding anything, it's just... we just confirmed it not long ago, and I thought we should wait until things were more stable before making any decisions."

"Who knew he would suddenly post it after filming that day? I was so scared that I rushed to the comments section to grab the first comment."

"Tsk, what a display of affection."

Meng Ziyi raised an eyebrow and waved her phone. "Look, the comments section is in an uproar. People are saying you two fell in love on the set of 'Lady's House,' and now there are rumors that you're going to work together on a new movie?"

Mao Xiaotong smiled and shook her head: "The new drama hasn't been decided yet. He's currently filming 'The New Frontier Swordsman,' and I just started filming 'Love O2O.' I don't have time."

She snatched the popsicle from Meng Ziyi's hand and took a small bite. "Besides, it's better to keep a low profile, so as not to be watched by you gossips."

Just as Meng Ziyi was about to retort, she suddenly received a text message.

She opened her phone and her eyes immediately lit up. She pulled Mao Xiaotong to her feet and said, "Come on, let me introduce you to my boss. He's handsome, has great taste, and is a really nice person!"

Mao Xiaotong nodded hurriedly, her fingertips unconsciously smoothing the ends of her pigtails, then she raised her hand to gently pat away non-existent dust from her denim overalls, her cheeks slightly flushed: "Great! I've heard that Director Jiang is exceptionally talented, but I've never had the chance to meet him."

She secretly straightened her collar, feeling a surge of excitement inside.

In the industry, director Jiang Ye is currently in high demand, especially for young actresses like them!

Who wouldn't want to be the next "Sito" chosen by Jiang Ye, or like Meng Ziyi, get the lead role in his drama and rise to fame along with the work?

Mao Xiaotong took a deep breath and followed Meng Ziyi toward the entrance of the film set, her steps unconsciously becoming lighter.

You always need to leave a clean and neat impression; opportunities like this are rare.

Almost simultaneously, a small commotion suddenly broke out on set.

The production assistant ran quickly toward the monitor, shouting, "Director Jiang is here!"

The staff working on the lighting all stopped what they were doing and peered towards the entrance. Even Yang Yang, who was touching up her makeup under a parasol, looked up. Under the sycamore trees at the entrance to the film set, Jiang Ye had just gotten out of his van.

He was wearing a beige casual suit, which was warmed by the afternoon sun. He was carrying several cups of iced coffee, and his assistant was taking boxes out of the trunk. The boxes contained iced milk tea and packaged pastries.

As soon as he approached the set fence, the production manager jogged up to him with a warm smile: "Director Jiang, you've finally arrived! Director Lin was just talking about you. Please come in."

Jiang Ye smiled and shook hands with him, then turned to his assistant and instructed, "Distribute the items to everyone."

After saying that, he followed the production manager and walked straight to Lin Yufen behind the monitor.

When Lin Yufen saw him appear, she put down the walkie-talkie and greeted him with a smile: "Director Jiang, you've been on sick leave for quite a while now. It's been almost half a month since filming started before you finally show up?"

Jiang Ye smiled and handed over a glass of iced Americano: "Director Lin, I'm really sorry, I was in the hospital for quite a while the past few days."

He pointed to his head and joked, "Now at least I don't have to see Grandma anymore."

Lin Yufen took the coffee and asked with concern, "Are you alright? I heard that some of you were seriously poisoned."

"It's nothing, I just had an upset stomach for a few days." Jiang Ye shrugged. "But now everyone on the internet calls me Director Sun Wukong, so I guess I've turned misfortune into blessing."

As the two were exchanging pleasantries, Yang Yang walked over and greeted them with a smile: "Director Jiang."

Jiang Ye reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Old Yang! Long time no see!"

The two were old acquaintances, having met during the filming of "The Left Ear." Jiang Ye had originally considered having him make a cameo appearance...

Unfortunately, Ouhao and he were on good terms back then.

Yang Yang was amused by his address: "I can't accept the title 'Old Yang,' please just call me by my name."

Jiang Ye laughed and joked, "That won't do. Your 'Tomb Raiders' just finished airing and you became so popular. Now you're filming 'Love O2O.' Once this show airs, won't you become a top star? I need to get on your good side beforehand so I can ride your coattails later."

"If anyone's going to hug someone, it'll be me! Brother Jiang, please look out for me from now on!"

The two were joking around when several young actors on set gathered around.

Zheng Yecheng, who plays Hao Mei, still held the script in his hand and nodded with a smile: "Hello Director Jiang, I am Zheng Yecheng, playing Hao Mei."

Song Xinjia, who plays Sisi, quickly followed up: "Hello Director Jiang, I'm Song Xinjia!"

Several supporting actors introduced themselves in a flurry of chatter, their eyes full of anticipation.

Everyone knows that this young director has just created a blockbuster with "Si Teng" and is currently enjoying a surge in popularity.

"Alright, alright, if you keep pushing, you'll really push Director Jiang back to the hospital."

Lin Yufen smiled and waved to defuse the situation, "He's a co-director now, he's on set every day, he's not here to visit. If you really want an opportunity, just focus on filming your current scenes well, memorize your lines, and get the emotions right, then he'll naturally notice."

The actors all laughed and consciously stepped back to give the two some space.

Meng Ziyi pulled Mao Xiaotong closer, grinning as she reached out her hand: "Boss, where's my iced Americano?"

Jiang Ye raised an eyebrow, took a cup out of the bag and handed it to her: "I knew you'd want this."

Meng Ziyi took the drink, took a sip with relish, and then tugged at Mao Xiaotong beside her: "Xiaotong, this is my boss, Director Jiang Ye!"

Mao Xiaotong blushed slightly and greeted him politely: "Hello Director Jiang, I am Mao Xiaotong, and I play Erxi in the drama."

Jiang Ye glanced at her and smiled, "I know you. You played Consort Ying in 'Empresses in the Palace' very well."

Jiang Ye had a deep impression of her, mainly because this girl had met a scumbag and was cheated on and dumped.

This isn't really a big deal, except that the scumbag is also named Chen Xiang.

Many people who are just playing with the memes or don't understand why leave comments on Chen Xiang's 6:30 every day.

Chen Xiang, you're so foolish!
Actually, they are two different people who have absolutely no connection.

Mao Xiaotong's eyes lit up. She hadn't expected Jiang Ye to remember her role. She was overjoyed and exclaimed, "Thank you, Director! I especially love 'Si Teng,' and Sister Jing Tian's performance was fantastic!"

Jiang Ye nodded: "Your look in this drama suits you very well; you're lively and adorable."

Meng Ziyi interjected, "Boss, Xiaotong's acting is superb. Remember to cast her next time there's a suitable role!"

Jiang Ye glanced at her helplessly, "Sure, let's collaborate sometime."

From afar, the stage manager began calling out, "Attention everyone, get ready for the next scene!"

Lin Yufen clapped her hands: "Director Jiang, do you want to stay and take a look? We're about to film a scene where couples are battling it out in a game."

Jiang Ye nodded and said, "Okay, I'll learn from Director Lin's scheduling."

The sycamore leaves rustled, the camera slowly zoomed out, and the film set returned to its busy state...

……

That evening, Jiang Ye originally planned to have dinner with the director and main cast, but the arrival of one person changed his plans.

Under the sycamore tree at the school gate, Chen Duling stood quietly, her white dress fluttering in the evening breeze, her long hair falling smoothly over her shoulders.

"Dudu?" Jiang Ye walked over quickly, somewhat surprised. "Why are you suddenly..."

“I wanted to visit you when you were hospitalized,” she interrupted softly, “but my mother…”

The words reached his lips and he swallowed them back.

Since the last family meeting, she and her mother have been locked in a protracted tug-of-war.

Lin Hongying insisted on setting up her own studio, while her mother was determined to sign with Jiangying Media. The two had been in a cold war for two whole weeks over this.

“My mom won’t even let me leave the house now.” Chen Duling looked up with a wry smile. “I was only able to sneak over to see you this time because school started.”

Jiang Ye looked at her haggard expression. This usually well-behaved and sensible girl was now filled with struggle and confusion between her brows.

"Come on, I'll take you somewhere."

Jiang Ye suddenly turned around and grabbed her hand.

An hour later, the Ferris wheel slowly rose to mid-air, and only the breathing of the two people remained in the cabin.

Outside the window was the dazzling night view of Shanghai, with neon lights flowing in through the glass and landing on Chen Duling's slightly cool hand.

Jiang Ye handed her the hot cocoa he had just bought and said gently, "Warm your hands first, it's okay!"

In the rising steam, Chen Duling finally began to relax.

Holding her cup, she spoke as if making a decision: "Jiang Ye, do you think I should listen to my mother?"

Jiang Ye did not answer immediately.

He gazed out the window at the boats sailing on the Huangpu River, their lights scattering like golden foil on the water's surface.

His thoughts were wandering because he was thinking about a very serious question.

Dudu, where are you staying tonight?
