Chapter 360 Blindly Trusting Brother Tong (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Was there anything else just now?"

It's rare for James Leiden to be curious; just now, Lao Tian was on the phone with Qi Hao for a full half hour.

It's definitely not just about Baby.

Baby's problem could be solved with just three sentences.

"Yes, it's not exactly a secret. I can tell you, but it can't be shared with anyone else."

Old Tian didn't hesitate much.

James Leiden and Shi Feng exchanged a glance, both somewhat excited.

This is definitely a new business opportunity.

Whether they're radical or conservative, who doesn't love money?

Having money means you can do so many things.

Yes, there are many capable people.

"Qi Hao instructed Donghao Venture Capital to acquire as many Tesla shares as possible."

Old Tian couldn't possibly handle this personally.

The specific work still needs to be done by the team members. Both James Leiden and Shi Feng are on the list of team members at Donghao Venture Capital.

They'll find out about this sooner or later.

"Tesla... Never heard of it. Does the boss have high hopes for this company's development?"

Just because Shi Feng hasn't heard of it doesn't mean he doesn't approve of it.

In fact, as long as Qi Hao, this little Buffett, thinks it's okay, then he will approve it unconditionally.

"Correct!"

Old Tian also unconditionally regards Qi Hao as a stock market god. Over the years, Qi Hao has bought and sold a lot of stocks and rarely made a mistake.

"Should we do some too?"

Janchi Leiden looked at Old Tian.

Not long ago, Qi Hao's executives jointly established an investment company.

Not only did they obtain Qi Hao's permission, but they also received some financial support from Donghao Venture Capital and Feiyang Media.

The company's senior executives and veterans all hold shares in the company.

Qi Hao's business empire is very clean. Although the various companies may seem complex, they are all ultimately consolidated into Donghao Venture Capital, which is controlled by him personally.

He also has no intention of giving shares to executives.

The main reason is that Qi Hao's business is too high-end. These executives did not make any contribution to the creation of his wealth of over a billion US dollars.

No matter how good his relationship with Lao Tian was, Qi Hao would never give Lao Tian 20% of Donghao Venture Capital's wealth.

That's hundreds of millions of dollars in wealth.

Old Tian probably wouldn't feel comfortable asking for it.

Now, Lao Tian and his partners have jointly established an investment company. Following Qi Hao's lead and reaping the benefits is no different from them directly owning shares in the company.

The company invested 5% in the film "Love is Not Blind".

"Lost in Thailand 2" even reached as high as 10%.

Furthermore, Qi Hao's wealth was acquired relatively easily, almost like a windfall.

Completing a single task can bring in hundreds of millions of yuan in revenue.

Therefore, he doesn't really care about the money that Zhonghao, Xihao, and Feiyang Media make.

He mostly used these as tools to support his power and mission.

He paid his brothers exceptionally high salaries.

The company's veterans all earn a million yuan a year, and several core executives earn over ten million yuan!

Ordinary people have limited investment options.

There's nowhere else to spend this money except to buy a house.

Since Lao Tian and his group know President Dongfang, why would they need to buy a house outright?

They mostly bought their houses with loans.

With the remaining money, they could either buy two more houses as investments or put it into the joint venture and work with Qi Hao.

"Let's do it then, but let me make this clear first: First, this is only for the team, so don't mention it to anyone else, lest we alert Qi Hao and ruin his big plan. Second, regarding the investment period, it seems like this is another long-term investment, so everyone should act within their means."

Old Tian didn't forget to give a word of advice.

The others naturally nodded in agreement.

After discussing it, everyone agreed that raising tens of millions wouldn't be a problem.

This isn't the first time they've done this.

During the 3Q War this year, Tencent's stock price plummeted, and Qi Hao followed up with a large investment.

Company executives also followed suit.

If you ask why we're investing when everyone else is leaving, do you have some investment secret?

So the key to investing is to follow Qi Hao's lead.

Everyone should do what Warren Buffett Jr. does.

But in reality, Qi Hao didn't understand Tesla either. He just blindly trusted Brother Tongzi, just like the company's executives blindly trusted him.

At Tesla's share price of $21, three million Tesla shares would only be worth tens of millions of dollars.

Qi Hao didn't think Brother Tong would be so low. It would be undignified.

Therefore, it can be inferred that Tesla will definitely be a very successful company in the future, and its stock price will rise to a level comparable to, or at least very close to, Apple's.

Those tens of millions of dollars worth of stock could at least increase tenfold.

If that's the case, why should Qi Hao just wait for the system to give him a reward?

Why can't he buy it himself?

He could easily raise sixty million US dollars himself; he could buy three million shares before completing the mission.

As for the impact on Tesla...

What impact could such a listed company have under a free trading environment?

Qi Hao invested in Xiaomi, and Xiaomi felt very honored.

Lei Jun believes that the fact that Donghao Venture Capital, which had its eye on Apple, is now eyeing Xiaomi shows that there is absolutely no need to worry about Xiaomi's development, even though the company hasn't even produced a single product yet.

Quite a few people in the investment community share the same view.

Amidst all the outside noise, Qi Hao has been in seclusion filming since returning from the Golden Horse Awards.

They filmed a scene on the big ship where he and Li Lianjie were fighting when they returned.

Li Lianjie, along with two henchmen, attempted to assassinate Qi Hao.

There are always people who want to harm me.

In the storyline, it's depicted as a large ship sailing westward from Luoshui to Longmen, but in actual filming, it's impossible to actually transport an ancient ship onto the river.

That's not just a matter of set design; the key issue is that it's also more difficult to film.

Fortunately, Xu Ke is not Nolan, and he doesn't have that much funding for location shooting.

The entire shoot took place in a studio in front of a green screen.

Special effects can be added later.

The advantage of a photography studio is that it is fully equipped and safer than shooting on location.

Qi Hao, suspended by wires, gestured to Li Lianjie.

It's impossible for him to kick Li Lianjie; the two didn't make any contact at all throughout the entire incident.

This is a martial arts film, not a kung fu film; it can't deliver realistic, visceral punches.

However, even from the simple gestures, it's clear that Li Lianjie's movements are still very agile, and his skills haven't deteriorated over the years.

"Qi Hao, you're quite skilled. Have you practiced swordsmanship?"

Qi Hao could see that Li Lianjie was still vigorous despite his age, and Li Lianjie could also see that Qi Hao had some skills.

"I learned a few tricks from Master Suiyun."

Qi Hao didn't pretend to be modest; he had basically learned his swordsmanship from the fake Taoist priest.

The fake Taoist priest didn't just have Qi Hao learn by following videos.

When they have free time, they often get together, especially when Gao Yang invites Qi Hao for drinks, he always brings along Daoist Suiyun.

Master Suiyun personally taught Qi Hao how to practice swordsmanship on several occasions.

“We feel like we can revise this play and show some real skill. The current design just doesn’t feel quite right.”

Li Lianjie stretched his arms and legs and felt that he could still manage.

Action director Won Bin was somewhat interested.

He was under immense pressure designing the action sequences for this film.

The action director for the previous film, "New Dragon Gate Inn," was Ching Siu-tung, who was on par with Yuen Woo-ping.

He had to design movements that reflected his own style, but they couldn't be too much worse than the original.

Unfortunately, the female lead, Zhou Xun, is not a martial arts actress.

The male lead, Li Lianjie, is too old to fight anymore.

With the two of them just floating around and gesturing aimlessly, it's hard to capture any decent movements in a photo.

But if neither of the two lead actors can perform, what can the action director do?

"Don't take anything too risky. Are you sure you can handle it?"

Xu Ke thought it was acceptable.

Now that he heard Li Lianjie speak up and the director didn't object, Yuan Bin immediately perked up:

"Qi Hao, show me the sword techniques you know, and I'll use them as a basis for designing the movements."

"I need to call the person who taught me swordsmanship."

Qi Hao couldn't just take it and use it directly. Don't talk about promoting Taoist culture; that's just fooling honest people.

The fake Taoist priest didn't delay much and immediately told them to take it and use it as they pleased.

Xu Ke decided to turn around and express his gratitude to the Taoist temple.

Even if Li Lianjie was a Buddhist, he couldn't say anything at this point.

Thus, Qi Hao and Li Lianjie finally achieved a peak showdown.

Li Lianjie was born in 63, so he would have been 47 years old in 2010.

Qi Hao was beating up an old man who was over fifty years old.
