My wife is in my arms

Chapter 1014 Box Office 19
hang up the phone.

Lin Bao'er leaned back in her chair and began to stare blankly.

She had thought of countless ways to get the better deal from Zhang Xiaoyou, but she never thought of this guy... First of all, he's a world superstar. Originally, although Zhang Xiaoyou might still be able to fulfill this bet, there would definitely be a buffer period.

Even though Zhang Xiaoyou signed an agreement with the iMusic platform to release an English single every two months, he seemed to lose his sense of direction after the recording of the second season of "Special Voice".

Lost in the lakeside, he not only became unusually lazy but also lacked ambition, losing all basic fighting spirit.

She made a bet with him on this, thinking she might win.

But... she was like a genius, actually gambling with the box office of "Goodbye Mr. Loser", and ended up losing everything.

Since she had lost, and Zhang Xiaoyou refused to compensate her by buying some shares from her, she could only... As she thought about it, Lin Bao'er felt a headache coming on.

It also includes feelings of shyness and annoyance.

What's the point of this if I don't have sex with her? It's not like I don't have a wife.

However, thinking about Jiang Yiren's current situation, Lin Bao'er instantly realized why Zhang Xiaoyou hadn't agreed to change the bet to shares. He probably hadn't had his fill of sex for a long time, and she just happened to come to him, so he decided to use her to have his fill.

After sitting for a while, Lin Bao'er got up and walked towards the conference room when she saw that it was almost time.

The situation for "Goodbye Mr. Loser" is very good, and the publicity department is still promoting the film. Even though the film has been released for quite some time, a small amount of publicity is still necessary.

She mainly discussed the situation of "The Voice of China" at the meeting. The show has recorded several episodes and its ratings are gradually increasing, showing signs of becoming a hit show.

As more episodes air, the show has garnered increasing attention and discussion, and it's estimated that it will catch up with the ratings of the first season of "Special Voice" in just two or three more episodes.

For Lin Bao'er, this was a pleasant surprise without any burden. Fortunately, she didn't include this music variety show in the bet; if she had, it would have been a complete disaster.

Even now, she's not having an easy time.

Zhang Xiaoyou went out with the "Goodbye Mr. Loser" crew for promotional activities this morning and said he would be back at noon. As for her father's suggestion to add some storytelling elements to "The Voice of China," she mentioned it to Zhang Xiaoyou, but he immediately rejected it, so Lin Bao'er gave up. Zhang Xiaoyou's abilities had already earned her a sense of trust.

After all, the idea for "The Voice" ultimately came from this guy.

The meeting lasted for about half an hour before it ended. Back in her office, Lin Bao'er checked the company's stock price. At the opening of trading that morning, Tianyu Entertainment's stock price officially entered the seventeen yuan mark, but then fell back down.

After taking a couple of sips of lemonade, Lin Bao'er put down the glass and went about her other business.

The company's stock price surged entirely due to the massive success of "Goodbye Mr. Loser." Now that the film has been in theaters for quite some time, its daily box office has fallen below 30 million, which means its momentum is about to be exhausted.

Lin Bao'er didn't know whether Zhang Xiaoyou would choose to cash out or continue to hold on, but Lin Bao'er knew that once he started cashing out such a large amount of funds, it would inevitably attract retail investors to follow suit, and the company's stock price would definitely fall.

As for the company's employees... well, it all depends on their abilities.

Don't be silly and go in now. Otherwise, you'll be standing there watching others eat, and when they're done, you'll rush in, only to get a beating instead of any meat.

The sound of rain was still coming from outside the window.

A few days ago, the weather was gloomy for two or three days without a drop of rain. On the 12th, the rain started falling and hasn't stopped until today. However, compared to the heavy rain that caused flooding in many parts of the city the previous two days, the rain has clearly lessened today.

Lin Bao'er scrolled through short videos and learned that in addition to her city, several surrounding cities were also affected, and one place seemed to be flooded. However, since the rise of short videos, information from all aspects can be gathered on short video platforms, and this kind of thing happens every year.

It's either flooding here or massive hailstorms there. On a larger scale, there are problems in various countries; it seems the whole world has never had a single day of peace.

All of this is due to the development of information technology. Everything has its advantages and disadvantages. People's horizons are no longer confined to their own little world and have become broader. However, because they have seen so much of this kind of trouble, many people cannot bear to see human suffering. On the contrary, short videos, based on big data filtering, are relentlessly pushing video content in this regard, resulting in an increasing number of people suffering from depression in society today.

It increases by several percentage points every year. Lin Bao'er remembers that she had never heard of this disease when she was a child.

Lin Bao'er was busy until nearly 11 o'clock before she finished reading several important documents and made her comments. At this stage of the company's development, she only needed to grasp the general direction, and the remaining details would naturally be handled by the heads of the various departments.

The rain outside hadn't stopped; the raindrops hit the transparent glass and then slid down along the path of the previous drop.

Just as Lin Bao'er was about to ask Song Lan to get her a meal from the restaurant, she heard Zhang You and Song Lan's voices coming from the office door.

"Director Zhang, have you sold your stocks yet?!"

Hearing Song Lan ask Zhang Xiaoyou such a question, Lin Bao'er couldn't help but laugh.

It's estimated that many people in the company are waiting for Song Lan to get information from Zhang Xiaoyou before making their next decision.

Unlike most people who invest in stocks, Zhang Xiaoyou simply believed that his novel "Goodbye Mr. Loser" would be a huge success.

"Investing in the stock market involves risks; please invest with caution."

Zhang You didn't answer directly. Instead, he smiled and said, "Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful." Then he patted Song Lan on the shoulder, followed by four words: "Remember this, remember this."

"..."

Song Lan was completely stunned.

She understood the first sentence; it was a stock market slogan. But although she didn't understand the second sentence, she felt it made a lot of sense. After Zhang You recited Warren Buffett's classic investment philosophy, he went into the office.

Zhang You doesn't mind helping others make some money.

But when it comes to investing, nobody can say for sure, and who knows if anyone in the company is using leverage? If they are, making money is fine, but losing money... Zhang You has personally experienced that kind of pain.

One turn of leverage, and your fate is in the hands of the stock market.

Even if he doesn't die, he'll be badly hurt. He entered the stock market not only because he was confident, but also because he remained clear-headed. In particular, he could accept losing everything, unlike the others in the company.

Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.

Seeing Zhang Xiaoyou walk in, Lin Bao'er, who had overheard their conversation, smiled and said, "Judging from that, you seem to know a lot about investing. In that case, may I ask, which other stocks are likely to rise?"

As Song Lan walked in, she immediately looked at Zhang You.

"I predict there will be a large expanse of lush greenery tomorrow."

Zhang You made a very irresponsible joke.

Song Lan, dressed in a women's business suit, froze for a moment. She understood the deeper meaning in Director Zhang's words. Director Zhang was implying that tomorrow's stock market... would be a good place to graze one's horses and sheep.
