Chapter 538 - 538 Discussion; Game Begins!
538 Discussion; Game Begins!
Lin Fan did not care about what was happening on the internet.
He directly handed over the specific activities of Tentacle World to the manager of Imperial Hotel, w.a.n.g Fengyi, and the CEO of Qingkun Group, Li Wannian.
With regards to w.a.n.g Fengyi’s abilities, Lin Fan was still rather a.s.sured.
He was the one in charge of Ling Rou’s concert last time, and it was a great success.
Li Wannian owned Qingkun Hotel, Qingkun Real Estate, Qingkun Supermarket, and others. He had a lot of people and land in Qing City.
Lin Fan believed that if the two of them worked together, there would not be any problems.
He did not have to worry about it.
Every day, he ate, drank tea, and strolled around the familiar streets. He was extremely relaxed.
Today, as usual, Lin Fan got up very comfortably.
He was satisfied… Many people were extremely excited.
Among them was Lin Xiaoyao.
She had been lying by Lin Fan’s window early in the morning.
“Brother, you’re up? If we go over so late… will the Tentacle World event already start?”
Lin Fan looked at her anxious expression and could not help but laugh. “The event starts at 10 o’clock. It’s still early. Besides, I’m the boss. If the boss doesn’t go, who would dare to start the event?”
Lin Xiaoyao nodded and said, “That’s true. Did you really get the one billion yuan in prize money?”
At this point, she could not help but feel a little heartache.
She had been to the Coiling Dragon Villa the last time she went to Jiangbei and knew that Lin Fan had a lot of money.
However, this was a game event with prize money amounting to one billion.
She could not bear to see the money spent.
Lin Fan smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ve already earned it back after spending it.”
Lin Fan was definitely not spouting nonsense.
This was because through the promotion of the past few days, the popularity of Tentacle World had reached unprecedented heights.
As a result, the share price of the company that produced Tentacle World, Naifei Corporation, rose by 1%!
One had to know that the market value of Naifei Corporation was close to 200 billion yuan!
1% was 20 billion yuan!
Lin Fan owned 10% of the shares of the company, which meant that the value had increased by two billion!
In addition, Penguin Group took advantage of the popularity of Tentacle World to announce that they were going to develop a game, which increased their share price by 1%.
Penguin Group’s market value was close to five trillion yuan!
1% was 50 billion!
Lin Fan owned 80% of Penguin Group’s shares!
In other words, his a.s.sets had increased by 40 billion!
Of course, even if there was not any increase in value, Lin Fan would not care about it.
After all, it was only one billion yuan.
Lin Fan saw that Lin Xiaoyao was still worried about the one billion yuan and said, “The final winner will receive at least 500 million yuan. Work hard and earn it back.”
Lin Xiaoyao nodded vigorously and said, “Yes! Brother, I’ll work hard. If both of us earn 500 million, we’ll earn it all back!”
A look of struggle appeared on her face.
Work hard together?
Obviously, Lin Fan was going to partic.i.p.ate in the Tentacle World event.
Originally, he did not plan to partic.i.p.ate.
However, he could not convince Lin Xiaoyao. Besides, he was fine.
He thought of it as playing games with his sister, so he agreed in the end.
…
After the two of them had breakfast, they got into the Cullinan and headed to Qing City Stadium.
The road today was extremely congested. Looking up into the distance, it was densely packed with vehicles.
Some people had been stuck on the road for a long time, so they began to use clever methods to seize the opportunity.
However, sometimes, this kind of cleverness made the traffic even worse.
Some people were bored and began to discuss and complain.
“Why is it so crowded today?”
“You still don’t know? Today, Qing City Stadium is going to hold an event with prize money amounting to one billion, so many tourists rushed over.”
“An event with prize money amounting to one billion? Really? What kind of event is it?”
“It’s Tentacle World, the TV show! On TV, one can get money by clearing the checkpoints, and in the end, one can get a lot of money! I don’t know what this event is like. As for whether it’s real or fake, many people on the internet said it’s real.”
“No wonder it attracted so many people.”
“Isn’t that so?”
…
Although these conversations were not loud and they were even separated by the car window, none of them could escape Lin Fan’s ears.
After all, he had already drunk the Hearing Enhancement Potion.
Lin Xiaoyao, who was sitting in the Cullinan, could not help but worry. “Brother, will we be late?”
Before Lin Fan could reply, the car behind him honked several times.
The driver of the car next to Lin Fan’s stuck his head out and shouted, “What are you honking for? Can’t you see that we’re all stuck here? Do you think you can fly over?”
Fly over?
Lin Fan’s expression changed slightly, and he said to Lin Xiaoyao, “Don’t worry, we’ll definitely be able to get to the stadium before 10 o’clock.”
Then, he picked up his phone and made a call.
After a while, there was a roar above their heads.
Many people raised their heads curiously.
Soon, someone exclaimed, “It’s a private jet!”
“Heavens!”
“What a cool plane!”
“There’s actually a private jet in Qing City…”
As the crowd shouted, the luxurious private jet lowered its alt.i.tude and lowered a rope ladder.
A young man climbed down the rope ladder and came to the Cullinan’s side. He said respectfully, “Mr. Lin, good day.”
Lin Fan nodded. “I’ll leave the car to you.”
“Mr. Lin, don’t worry,” the young man said.
Lin Xiaoyao, who was standing at the side, said somewhat stiffly, “Brother, this plane…”
“Don’t we have to arrive before 10 o’clock? Let’s go,” Lin Fan said.
After saying that, under the gazes of countless people in the traffic jam, he led Lin Xiaoyao up the rope ladder and kept climbing.
Lin Xiaoyao only seemed to come back to her senses after entering the private jet.
She looked down through the window of the private jet, and her heart was beating wildly. Her entire face was flushed with excitement as she shouted excitedly, “Brother, I love you!”
After saying that, she threw herself into Lin Fan’s embrace.
Lin Fan corrected her, “We’re siblings!”
…
As the luxurious private jet rumbled, an incomparably huge red hot air balloon appeared in their field of vision. It looked very festive.
This place… was Qing City Stadium!
At this moment, there were already many people around the stadium. Looking down from above, the place was densely packed. It was a different scene.
Some people with cameras on their shoulders kept squeezing in, trying their best to capture the scene.
Some people who were qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the event lined up with the QR code and kept moving forward.
Lin Xiaoyao leaned against the window and said excitedly, “So many people!”
After a loud roar, the luxurious private jet finally landed in the stadium.
Soon, a staff member walked over.
Lin Fan said, “Let’s go and play the games.”
Lin Xiaoyao nodded vigorously.
