Less than a month after the Yuzhou real estate speculation group incident, another rumor has emerged: Hollywood's global film studio is planning to set up shop in Shanghai.

This news caused a huge stir and immediately attracted the attention of everyone in Shanghai. Of course, the news was only circulating in Shanghai at the moment, and it had not been confirmed.

A well-informed source revealed, "We haven't received any news about this from Hollywood yet, but we can't rule it out. After all, the mainland economy is doing well, and people have money in their pockets. Maybe the Americans are also eyeing the mainland's development?"

The news quickly spread online, with some commenting, "How is that possible? How could a global film studio be here?"

"It's hard to say. Shanghai is one of the most economically developed areas in the country, so it's possible that it could be located there."

"I've heard that Universal Studios is a lot of fun."

"This shows that our lives are getting better."

……

The rumors were spreading like wildfire online, and perhaps because they were so widespread, the Shanghai authorities issued a statement saying, "We have not received any information from Hollywood."

When the rumor started circulating, Zhang San had the housing prices in that area raised to 6,000 yuan per square meter. No one knew about this price increase because no one was buying, and nobody paid attention.

Zhang San was waiting to surprise them and make them feel panicked.

Meanwhile, Zhang San treated his three top generals on the mainland to dinner. During the meal, he asked them, "Have you heard the recent news?"

Fang Xiaobing, idly shaking the soup, said, "What news? Hollywood Global Studios is going to invest here? To build their second studio on the mainland?"

The first one is Xiangjiang Cinema, and the second one is naturally Huhai.

"These are all rumors. You'll lose if you believe them," Wang Shengyi said dismissively. She came from a family of educators; in twenty years, they would probably be called an academic powerhouse.

"What does that have to do with us?"

Gao Yuanyuan said somewhat boredly as she put the lobster meat in her mouth.

"What if I told you it's true?" Zhang San said very seriously.

"Haha... Boss, if you're the boss of a global entertainment group, then I'll believe you."

"Yeah, boss, you think it's true just because you say so? The officials have already said it, and the other party hasn't contacted them yet."

"Boss, if you're serious, I'll believe you. So what should I do?" Gao Yuanyuan probably didn't want to embarrass Zhang San, so she said it to make him feel less awkward.

"You guys know that house in Future City, right?" Zhang San asked another question, without any hint of embarrassment. As long as he wasn't embarrassed, it was others who would be. You must remember this when you're a person; it's very useful.

"Yeah, I know them, the Yuzhou real estate speculators, so what?"

"That housing development is in the countryside; nobody's buying it."

"It's so far away, and transportation isn't convenient."

"That development is mine. I suggest you buy some, as many as you can. If you buy, I'll give you a discount... um, how about 30% off? 30% off, only 4,200."

Zhang San thought for a moment and gave them a discount.

"What? A 30% discount is 4,200? That's 6,000 yuan per square meter? You swindler, why don't you just rob us?"

Fang Xiaobing's words struck a chord with Wang Shengyi and Gao Yuanyuan.

"Prices went up? When did they go up?"

Zhang San said, "I've bought up all the land around there. You're saying Global Studios is going to build a new city there, is that true?"

"But we don't have much money."

"Boss, you'll lend it to us, won't you?"

"We work for you during the day and then again at night; it's very tiring. Can we get a better deal in return?"

"I have prepared three buildings for you. The cost will be deducted from your salaries. You can sell them now or later, it's up to you."

The next day, someone came to their door and transferred ownership of the three buildings to them. It was publicly announced that these three buildings had been bought by people from Yuzhou. These three buildings could be said to be the best buildings in the first phase, and could be called the king of buildings.

"My boss is so generous, I love you so much."

Although the three expressed it differently, the meaning was the same. Not only did they receive a building, but He Meitian, Chai Xiaofen, and Amy also each received a building, while Guan Meiren paid for her own building.

In her own words over the phone: "I'm a wealthy woman in Hong Kong now, I'm self-reliant, and I don't need your dirty money."

In this way, all seven buildings were sold out and the transaction has already been completed at the housing management bureau.

Once everything settled down, Shanghai returned to calm. In just a few days, they would forget about the Yuzhou real estate speculators and the rumor that a global film studio was going to flood Shanghai.

On a Friday morning in June, Shanghai TV was broadcasting a signing ceremony live.

Representatives from the global film studio and Shanghai municipal officials gathered in a spacious and bright conference room. Both sides smiled, their expressions showing delight; one side had achieved a political milestone, and the other was about to gain another film studio theme park.

A pristine white tablecloth covered the conference table, adorned with vibrant flowers and elegantly bound folders. Amidst enthusiastic applause, representatives from both sides rose, shook hands, and formally signed the cooperation agreement. At that moment, the entire room was filled with an atmosphere of joy.

Global Entertainment, as one of the world's leading film and television companies, possesses extensive resources and rich content; while Shanghai is one of the most economically developed places on the mainland.

This signing signifies that both parties will join hands to create an unprecedented film and television theme park.

The host's voice came from the television.

"This is the fastest investment in the global entertainment industry. From contacting the Shanghai Stock Exchange authorities to the finalization of the deal, it only took three days, breaking the record for investments in Europe and America..."

This time, it wasn't just a small stone causing a few ripples, but a tsunami.

At this moment, they remembered the Yuzhou real estate speculation group and that rumor. They immediately realized that the housing prices in that area were about to rise, and someone immediately went to investigate.

"What? Six thousand? There are less than ten buildings left in Phase One?"

"Sir, don't be surprised, prices may rise further in the future," a pretty saleswoman said in a sweet voice as she introduced the property to them.

"I'll go back and think about it."

This news was immediately spread online by those who came to view the property, and many people immediately turned into keyboard warriors, starting to criticize the real estate company.

"They're robbing us! They're shameless!"

"It's better than robbery, because robbing carries legal consequences, but they don't."

Like them, Gao Yuanyuan, Fang Xiaobing, and Wang Shengyi were even more surprised. It turned out that they didn't believe Zhang San when he spoke seriously...
