Ally had never heard Jiang Xu speak to her in such a serious tone before.
She instinctively straightened her posture and pursed her lips, âBoss, please give your instructions.1â
Jiang Xu: âConduct a current market value assessment on the shops and suites I own in second and third-tier cities, and give me the results within an hour.â âOkay, Iâll get on it right away.â
While waiting, Jiang Xu also took a look at the current stock price of Nuomi Novel Network.
It was five yuan when it went public, and now it had reached twenty-one yuan.
The increase was more than fourfold.
It was rising by a few percentage points every day.
This also made the market very optimistic about this stock.
The enthusiasm of stock investors was also very high.
If push came to shove, Jiang Xu would only have to sell part of his shares, cash out, and fund his mobile business.
The entertainment sector is insignificant compared to the mobile industry.
After all, at the peak of its market value, the Fruit Company was almost three trillion US dollars, equivalent to over twenty trillion yuan domestically.
It was a number so staggering it could make oneâs scalp tingle just thinking about it.
No matter how profitable the entertainment industry is, it cannot reach this level.
Moreover, no matter how advanced the entertainment industry is, it canât help a small part of the population with calcium supplementation.
Currently, Jiang Xuâs plan was to gradually sell off houses and shops.
If that wasnât enough after all these were sold, he was prepared to spin off the groupâs comic, audiobook, and music apps, and list them one by one.
He would then get money out of the stock market and continue to invest in the mobile and chip fields.
If that still didnât work, he would have to delve into Nuonuoâs little treasury.
Jiang Xu had also left himself a way out.
Long ago, he had purchased insurance policies worth one hundred million each for himself, An Nuonuo, and his parents.
The interest rate was 4%.
Even in bankruptcy, they could still have an income of around four hundred thousand a month.
They could still live a carefree and comfortable life.
With no concerns about the future, Jiang Xu could be bold and enterprising.
Less than an hour later, Ally called back.
âBoss, Iâve done the calculations. The properties under your name in the second and third-tier cities have a market value of around thirty billion yuan,â she reported.
Originally, Jiang Xuâs total investment in buying properties and shops in second and third-tier cities was only about five hundred million yuan.
Having sextupled the investment, the returns were quite good.
âGood, sell them all.â
âUnderstood, boss.â
Ally didnât ask questions that she shouldnât ask. Once she received the order, she immediately went to carry it out.
Jiang Xu rubbed his temples.
He still needed to make a few more preparations.
In case of a real cash flow problem, he needed to be able to raise funds in the shortest time possible.
After thinking it over,
he first called An Feng, Fu Xinghan, Jiang Xiaoyan, and Bai Xiaoya separately.
He invited them to dinner that evening.
Then, he opened a document and wrote down a few novel titles.
A Sword Alone Honored, Snow in the Valor Knife Walk, âSword Comingâ, The
Girl Next Door Grows Up, Myth Version of Three Kingdoms, and the names of over twenty other novels.
He had read these novels and they had left a deep impression on him.
He planned to get the outlines of the novels done and then find professional writers to write them.
These works were meant to raise the stock price of Nuomimi Novel Network.
For such a company, the rise in stock price largely depends on the quality of the siteâs works and the achievements they have attained.
If the performance is good, the reputation high, and the returns strong, then the market will naturally recognize it, and the stock price is bound to rise.
Unless someone is intentionally causing trouble.
But the probability of that is small, because as of now, Nuomimi Novel has no competitors.
Even if someone is making trouble, the chance of success wouldnât be high.
âYouâre still busy, Brother Xu.â
An Nuonuo was back.
She had a psychology class in the afternoon.
After returning, she brought Jiang Xu a cup of milk tea.
Jiang Xu pulled her over in one motion, making her sit on his lap.
Smiling, he said, âI invited your dad and Uncle Fu tonight, come join us.â
âIs there something important?â An Nuonuoâs smile faded.
âYes.â Jiang Xu nodded: âZhang Xiaofeng is being a real nuisance.
I donât have time to drag this out with him, so we need to deal with him quickly.â
âI understand.â An Nuonuo nodded slightly: âIf you need money, I still have some.
If thatâs not enough, I have many houses, factories, and companies under my name that we can sell.
Brother Xu, I will always be your strongest support.â
She spoke in a calm tone of things that would seem momentous to others.
Assets worth ten or twenty billion, she offered as easily as if a common person said theyâd give away two bucks.
âIn this world, aside from my parents, you treat me the best.â Jiang Xu placed his hand on her stomach: âStill no movement?â
âNone.â An Nuonuo shook her head, sounding somewhat disheartened: âThe day before yesterday when I went for a biology class, the teacher mentioned it.
There are some girls who are very healthy but just have a hard time getting pregnant.
It might succeed only once in a hundred tries.â
Jiang Xu was aware of such situations.
He pinched An Nuonuoâs conscience: âNo worries, if the probability is low, weâll compensate with quantity.
If ten times wonât do, then a hundred times, if not a hundred, then a thousand, ten thousand.
I canât believe that it wonât be successful.
We have some time before we meet them this evening, letâs give it a few more tries.â
An Nuonuo blushed: âStop it, I donât want to.
Besides, a thousand times, ten thousand times, your body wonât be able to take it.â
Even if itâs three times a day, a thousand times would take over several months.
Even if you had an indestructible body, it would still turn into decay.
Jiang Xu didnât care whether she was willing or not.
He simply stood up, and amidst An Nuonuoâs startled cries, he plunged aheadâ¦
In the evening, Jiang Xu took An Nuonuo to the appointment.
Everyone arrived on time.
Seeing his daughter looking radiant, happy, and joyful, An Feng was reassured. Fu Xinghan said, âDid you ask us here for something important? Just say it.â âSorry to trouble everyone to come tonight.â Jiang Xu said solemnly: âI need a favor from you all to deal with Zhang Xiaofeng for good.â
Bai Xiaoyaâs eyes sparkled: âAre you planning to ask us to invest, so you can confront him head-on?â
Everyone was already aware of the situation between Jiang Xu and Zhang Xiaofeng.
At first, the people present had asked Jiang Xu one after another if he needed their help.
At that time, Jiang Xu hadnât anticipated that the fruit phone would be released so much earlier than expected.
The whole plan was disrupted.
âNo.â Jiang Xu shook his head: âA direct confrontation would cost too muchâ¦â
Jiang Xu paused slightly, a complex expression appearing on his face: âT have a way that wonât cost much to defeat him!â
