"Mm, that"s not bad. I"d never thought that a novel website would be this lucrative." Hong Weiguo smiled. "The others?"""Unexpectedly" is currently undergoing filming, but it"s just that Young Master Dali doesn"t really mention about it usually." Xiao Liu looked at the doc.u.ment. ""I Am a Singer" has almost come to its end, and in the process, it has enjoyed a good amount of popularity. At the moment, the total earnings of these two projects have already reached more than 40 million yuan. Of course, that"s just on the surface. If we count in the effect of advertis.e.m.e.nts and so on, it would be even higher."
"This little prodigal of ours does have a way of handling his entertainment business." Hong Weiguo helplessly shook his head. "I"d never thought that these things would be so popular. Oh right, how"s the progress of the game that he"d collaborated on with Liu Mingxin? What is it called? Dream Dota League?"
"Dream Dota League is currently in the process of designing the heroes." Xiao Liu smiled and said, "The design of the characters by Miss Jin Zishan is indeed very special, and at the moment, she has already designed more than 30 heroes. Each of the heroes has unique personalities, so it"s extremely attractive."
Speaking up to this point, secretary Xiao Liu let out a sigh. "Back then, when Young Master Dali saved Miss Jin Zishan, I didn"t think that it would have such a big impact. Back then, Miss Jin Zishan didn"t even have the courage to live on, but now she can already handle things by herself. She and Miss Lin Zixuan are really perfect for working with each other. Miss Lin Zixuan can always familiarise herself so quickly with the skills of the characters that Miss Jin Zishan designs, and then she suggests some amendments. From this, it can be seen that everyone that Young Master Dali encounters are indeed talents."
Jin Zishan was good at designing characters, and Lin Zixuan was a genius at gaming.
The collaboration between the two of them could be said to be unmatched. Especially those professional gamers under Lin Zixuan. With Lin Zixuan bringing them along to play games and do testings, wouldn"t those geeks be eager to succeed and advance further in the games?
Hong Weiguo didn"t know whether to laugh or cry. He shook his head and said, "Everyone around Dali is quite useful. Sigh, heaven has really been fair about this…"
"CEO Hong, currently, according to the information from the gaming company on the third floor of Chenhui Building," Xiao Liu slowly said, "At the moment, Dream Dota League has received extremely good receptions, and the professional gamers don"t feel tired at all by playing it from morning till night. They can"t really get enough of it. If even they are like that, then it would be needless to mention about ordinary gamers. So, once this game is released, it will definitely be explosively popular!"
Could it not be explosively popular? Dream Three Kingdoms, Dream Dota League, League of Legends, these three games were definitely the killer games that dominated the entire world in Hong Dali"s previous life at various internet cafes. Once entering the internet cafe, almost all of the gamers would be playing these games.
"Mm, Dali"s ideas are all worth a lot of money." Hong Weiguo was very a.s.sured with regards to his son. "Anything he comes up with is worth a lot of money, hehe. Not bad, not bad!" He"d said that in a tone as if the heavens had given its blessings, and the corners of his mouth looked like they were about to stretch to his neck.
"Young Master Dali is really admirable." Secretary Xiao Liu looked up to him greatly as well. "Miss Mu Yuxi has been following Young Master Dali by his side these few days, and she looks like she has gained much enlightenment from it. CEO Hong, do you think I should follow Young Master Dali to learn how to squander too?" Xiao Liu"s eyes were full of antic.i.p.ation. "I think that squandering really takes skills…"
"Don"t even think about it. If you leave, I wouldn"t have any capable a.s.sistants." Upon hearing that his secretary wanted to learn how to squander too, Hong Weiguo hurriedly stopped him. "Moreover, Dali already has quite a lot of people by his side, you won"t be of much help even if you go there."
"O… OK." Xiao Liu was a little disappointed. "Then I won"t go."
After saying this, his phone suddenly rang. Upon picking it up and looking at it, he was instantly shocked. "It"s Miss Xiaoyi, CEO Hong. Wait for a while as I ask her what she wants."
As he spoke, he answered the call and asked, "Miss Xiaoyi, has Young Master Dali come up with any new ideas again?"
"Yes… there is a new idea…" Ling Xiaoyi was so anxious that she was almost crying. "Young Master has sold all the land under his name. I don"t know why he sold them all, but he has already signed and stamped his seal on the doc.u.ments!"
"What?!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Liu was instantly dumbfounded. "Young Master Dali sold all the land?!"
"He sold all of them!" Ling Xiaoyi sounded very pitiful. "I didn"t dare to stop Young Master…"
"CEO Hong, something"s gone wrong!" Xiao Liu covered the speaker. "Young Master Dali has sold all the land under his name!"
"What the heck! What"s this rascal doing?!" Hong Weiguo, who had all along appeared calm and steady, was shocked as well. "Quick, turn on the video conference. I"ll ask him what exactly is the matter!" As he spoke, he hurriedly turned on a laptop beside him and continued to instruct Xiao Liu, "Contact Old Elder, quick!"
"Alright!"
Very soon, the laptop was switched on, and Hong Dali"s nonchalant face appeared on the screen. Hong Weiguo asked in a deep tone, "Dali, you"ve sold all the land that I"d placed under your name? All of them?"
"Yes," Hong Dali smiled as if without a care in the world. "I find those pieces of land too troublesome, and just then someone came to buy them, so I sold it all!" As he spoke, he added, "Oh right, I didn"t sell the land at Fengyuan Lake. That Changjiang Golden Cruise and Big Turtle are all there, I won"t have any s.p.a.ce to put them after I sell them." As he spoke, he sneakily glanced around and then said, "Dad, you"re not going to scold me, right?"
"No," Unexpectedly, Hong Weiguo didn"t berate him nor did he ask for the exact reason why Hong Dali sold the land. He only touched his chin and, after quite a long while later, slowly said, "Since you already sold it, so be it. Oh right, Dali, how much did you sell it for?"
"7,888,888,888!" Hong Dali grinned. "This figure is auspicious, right?"
"That"s fine, it"s okay as long as you didn"t suffer a loss, hehe." Hong Weiguo didn"t say much and only comforted him. "Since you"ve sold the land, then I"ll contact the estate department and get them to stop all their construction works. I"ll do all the necessary procedures, you needn"t worry about it."
"Mm, OK, I knew that dad is the most awesome!" Hong Dali fiercely nodded. "Then I"ll go off to play!"
After Hong Dali had switched off the video call, Xiao Liu anxiously said, "CEO Hong, has Young Master Dali been tricked by someone into selling all the lands under his name? There"s still a very big potential for the value of the land to rise further!"Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
"7,888,888,888, there must be some secret to this figure!" What Hong Weiguo thought about was instead not what Xiao Liu had said, but about another aspect. "Dali deliberately spoke this figure, what do you think it is for? He"d always liked to round numbers up, either 7.5 billion or 8 billion, but he has unexpectedly said such a number. It definitely isn"t to sound auspicious, right?"
"Uh… That"s true…" Xiao Liu frowned. "But what does this figure represent?"
As they were speaking, Old Elder Hong Tu"s face appeared on the screen, sipping his tea as he asked, "Weiguo, What"s the matter? What happened that you have to contact me so urgently?"
"Dali has sold all the land." Hong Weiguo shrugged his shoulders. "All the land under his name."
PU—!! Old Elder Hong Tu almost choked to death on his tea, as he stared with wide eyes and asked in shock, "What did you say? Dali has sold all the land under his name?!"
"Yes." Hong Weiguo, instead, didn"t have much of a surprised expression. "He only kept the land at Fengyuan Lake, and the reason is that if that land is sold, then there won"t be a place to keep Big Turtle and Changjiang Golden Cruise…"
"This prodigal…" Hong Tu pounded his chest. "Pieces of land with such a huge potential to develop have all been sold by him? How much did he sell it for?! He didn"t sell it at the original price, right?"
"No." Hong Weiguo slowly said, "He sold it for 7,888,888,888. From what he said, he seems to think that this figure is very auspicious…"
"The figure is very auspicious…" Hong Tu felt that he would get a heart attack if he continued to listen to this. "And you didn"t stop him?! Those pieces of land can earn at least 12 billion if they"re properly developed! And now more than 4 billion have gone down the drain at once?"
"Of course, I couldn"t stop him." Hong Weiguo nonchalantly said, "Dali started off by playing with these estates since his health recovered. He looks quite experienced at playing around with pieces of land, so it"s not a problem whether he earns or loses a bit of money. Anyway, I don"t care much either. But this figure, 7,888,888,888. Dad, do you have any feelings towards it?"
"Feelings?" Hong Tu raged. "It"s just an auspicious number, what feelings would there be?! 4 billion… 4 billion… It"s gone just like that… It vanished instantly…"
Actually, Hong Weiguo didn"t feel much towards this 4 billion. After all, he"d only spent 1.2 billion when he bought these pieces of land, and how long had it been only before it was sold for close to 8 billion?
"Dad, don"t think too much about it." Hong Weiguo slowly said, "Think about it. Back then, when I bought these pieces of land, I only spent 1.2 billion in total. How long only has it been now it"s that been sold for close to 8 billion. 6.5 billion has been earned at once, isn"t that enough? Then, how much is a lot?"
"Alright, you little rascal knows how to lecture me now…" Hong Tu was very depressed. "Say, what special significance is there behind this 7,888,888,888 figure?"
"I"m thinking about this too." Hong Weiguo touched his chin. "According to Dali"s usual style, he"d definitely want to round the number up. So I"m very curious why he didn"t ask for 8 billion or 7.5 billion, but such a figure instead. What does this mean?"
"Hearing what you"ve said, it does seem a little strange." Since everything had already been finalized, and Hong Weiguo didn"t stop Hong Dali from doing it, Hong Tu naturally couldn"t say much about it. Now that Hong Weiguo questioned the significance of that figure, Hong Tu also started to stroke the beard on his chin and hopelessly tried to think about it. "What exactly does it mean? Speaking of which, this is indeed not Dali"s usual style of doing things…"
