Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

After playing a game, Mr. Li was impressed with Jiangbei City.

I truly experienced the personal charm of the "business legend" recognized by the Chinese community.

I was just accompanying my wife to play ball today because I had nothing else to do, and I thought I'd take the opportunity to meet Jiang Beicheng. I didn't expect to have such an unexpected surprise.

Many of Jiangbei City's ideas and status coincided with those of their family. Mr. Li nodded, and Temasek and Lian Capital established a global strategic partnership.

This is certainly very advantageous for Jiangbei City, given that Temasek holds a pivotal position in the global financial investment industry, with deep roots and a solid backing from sovereign wealth funds.

Lian Capital can take bigger steps overseas.

What this actually reflects is that the relationship between the Li family and the Jiang family is on a fast track.

Madam He had been looking forward to this for a long time. She highly approved of Jiangbei City, but she still needed Mr. Li's approval to take the next step.

After playing the game today, she could sense that her husband's feelings for Jiang Beicheng went beyond mere appreciation; they also carried a hint of respect.

This respect is very rare.

After playing golf, we didn't have dinner together. Jiang Beicheng extended a warm invitation out of courtesy, but Mr. Li politely declined, as accompanying him to play golf today was already an exception.

Normally, he rarely appears in public, let alone socializes with businessmen and politicians in private.

The impact is not very good.

To protect the image of the new government, minimizing public appearances is the best option.

Jiangbei City saw the couple off onto the bus.

Mr. Li got into the car first, while Mrs. He chatted briefly with Jiang Beicheng outside the car.

Mr. [Name] expressed his respect for the Jiang family.

Finally, he said goodbye, "Mr. Jiang, see you at the Chanel show tomorrow night."

"Madam, please." Jiang Beichen nodded and saw Madam He into the car. "See you tomorrow night."

Chanel's first fashion show after changing its CEO was held here.

And the Wertheimer family will make an appearance.

Compared to the wealthy families behind LVMH and Kering, the Wertheimer family behind Chanel is much more mysterious, rarely appearing in public and shrouded in an air of mystery as a wealthy tycoon.

Most of the celebrities and high-ranking officials here have received invitations.

Mrs. He must be an honored guest.

Since Karl Lagerfeld's passing, Chanel has experienced a decline compared to Victoria's Secret in recent years.

Its status in the global fashion industry has declined significantly.

After two unsatisfactory changes in creative directors, the Wertheimer family has high hopes for Chanel's new creative director, Blazy, marking the beginning of a century-long reform for Chanel.

Chanel, once known for its "elegance," "refinement," and "Chanel-esque" style, is about to exit the stage of history.

Jiang Beicheng went to the fashion show partly to accompany Mrs. He, and partly as a guest of the investor of Dongda's local fashion magazine "Shangcheng".

Chanel attaches great importance to the Greater China market, and as the most influential fashion magazine in the past year, "Shangcheng" was naturally invited.

Not only Chanel, but many other high-end luxury brands have also established strategic partnerships with Shangcheng.

It was for this reason that Shangcheng secured hundreds of millions of yuan in investment in its latest round of financing.

The capital market has high hopes for "Mall" and aims to create a fashion industry chain.

Founder Wu Wen is already a well-deserved "fashion icon in the Chinese entertainment industry".

Wu Wen, who was taking a lunch break, just finished hosting the June fashion gala for Shangcheng in Hong Kong and flew directly here to attend Chanel's fashion show.

Jiang Beicheng asked Aunt Shen to drive to the airport to pick up his lover who was taking a lunch break.

Wu Wen's abs, perky buttocks, and that flirtatious charm are exactly what Jiang Beicheng likes.

"Am I that important to Mr. Jiang? He personally came to pick me up at the airport."

Wu Wen smiled as she got into the Rolls-Royce, jokingly saying...

He first kissed Jiang Beicheng's face.

It's a common greeting gift.

Jiang Beichen wrapped his right arm around her waist and squeezed her firm, perky buttocks.

Self-disciplined women maintain a great figure.

It's amazing how well it works.

The firmness is just right, not too much, and it's very visually satisfying.

"I just happen to need someone to sunbathe with," Jiang Beichen said ambiguously, returning Wu Wen's kiss.

"Isn't General Hai over here?"

"Busy competing for big prizes."

"Ms. Qian..." Wu Wen covered her mouth and laughed when she mentioned Qian Li, "That's a bit impolite, not appropriate, not appropriate."

His gaze then turned to Shen Jun, "Actually, Secretary Shen maintains her figure very well."

Shen Jun turned around and smiled, "Thank you."

All three of them laughed.

Everyone understands that Aunt Shen's status has undergone a huge change.

On the way to Sentosa in the Rolls-Royce, Wu Wen noticed the stares of passersby outside the window and joked, "I'm feeling the allure of a 12 million license plate."

It's no exaggeration to say that riding in this car is more prestigious and commands more respect than riding in a private jet worth hundreds of millions.

Suddenly, my social standing was elevated.

“I just played a game of ball with Mr. Li yesterday. The relationship between the Jiang family and the Li family has entered an unprecedented honeymoon period,” Jiang Beicheng said.

"Take your lunch break sweetheart with you more often."

Wu Wen said coquettishly.

I also want to go abroad.

The international fashion circle now recognizes Jiang Beicheng, the investor of "Shangcheng", not Wu Wen. She sometimes jokes that she and her associates have risen to prominence.

Mr. Jiang's main focus is no longer on the entertainment and fashion industry; she needs to take over the baton, secure resources, and build her own reputation.

While realizing my self-worth, I can also avoid embarrassing Mr. Jiang, my generous benefactor.

Jiang Beicheng asked, "Shall I take you for a ride?"

Wu Wen pressed her chest against Jiang Beicheng's chest, tilted her head back and laughed, "Can we take off from here?"

Knowing that Jiang Beicheng was driving, he continued the conversation.

Jiang Beicheng joked, "I'm disturbing Secretary Shen while he's driving."

Shen Jun: "You can pretend I don't exist."

Smiling, she opened the curtains of the glass partition between the front and back rows.

……

This Sentosa mansion in Jiangbei City, worth over 400 million yuan, is located by the sea and features a private pier and a secluded private beach.

These seaside villas are typically arranged in different directions to ensure the privacy of the owners.

There aren't many units in this area.

Even if Jiang Beicheng and his lunch break lover Wu Wen were to lie naked on the beach enjoying a sunbath, they wouldn't have to worry about being exposed.

And that's exactly what they did.

Before the sunshine makes one feel lazy, let's savor the pleasure of being a lover during our lunch break.

Wu Wen, on the other hand, seemed quite cheerful.

This venue is full of excitement.

He kept spouting lewd remarks.

Jiang Beicheng was amused by her comment "sand got in".

It's purely about using witty banter to create atmosphere.

"It feels like a release of one's true nature, very comfortable, as if the body has merged with nature."

Wu Wen lay on Jiang Beicheng's body for a while, then rolled over and lay down on the beach to savor the moment.

Jiang Beicheng was about to take a swim in the sea. "This is the real fun." "Hahaha, Mr. Jiang is so good at describing things. The fun of the primitive is unforgettable."

I got up and took a shower in the bathroom next to the beach, then grabbed my surfboard and went back to chasing thrills.

This natural, excellent harbor would definitely be a bustling tourist attraction in China.

The wealthy do receive different treatment.

After surfing, we spent the afternoon sunbathing with Jiang Beichen, and then went straight back to the villa for dinner.

At the dinner table, Qian Li joked, "President Wu will probably be on the list of 'Asia-Pacific's Most Influential Young Women' next year."

Wu Wen knew, of course, that five women on this year's list had connections to Jiang Beicheng.

Besides stepmother Qian Li, the other four had all slept with Jiang Beicheng and maintained close relationships with him.

While marveling at Mr. Jiang's charm, I also reminded myself that I need to climb a little higher.

To pat myself on the back and prove myself.

Wu Wen humbly replied, "I will learn from Ms. Qian and General Manager Hai."

Haitangxi adopted the attitude of the eldest daughter-in-law and encouraged Wu Wen with a few words.

With the Jiang family's resources and a close relationship with Jiang Beicheng, the head of the Jiang family, one must earn some reputation and social standing; otherwise, it would be shameful to even mention it.

Women who have a relationship with Jiangbei City need to have this sense of self-respect.

Wu Wen respected Haitangxi quite a bit, after all, she had fantasized about replacing Haitangxi, but was severely punished twice before she realized her own position.

"What are your plans after baby finishes eating?" Haitangxi asked with a smile. "How about playing a couple of rounds of mahjong?"

There were exactly four people.

Jiang Beicheng: "Later, I have an event at the government office that I need to attend."

Haitangxi: "OK, let's go shopping after we finish eating."

Jiang Beicheng smiled and nodded, jokingly saying, "Don't try to save me money."

The three women laughed, taking it seriously, and started discussing what they had been enjoying lately.

In reality, these three women are financially capable of meeting their own material needs, but they all feel that spending men's money is more enjoyable.

Even if it's just a dollar, I feel happy when a man pays the bill.

Moreover, it's the kind of spending method that doesn't consider the spending limit.

"Mr. Jiang, the clothes are ready."

Shen Jun saw that Jiang Beicheng had finished eating and came over to inform him.

For formal occasions, you should definitely dress presentably.

Jiang Beicheng got up, changed his clothes, and went to the National Opera House.

The commemorative activities were very elaborate.

During the day, the two sides held talks in the government reception room to exchange and discuss diplomatic achievements.

An arts performance was arranged at the National Opera House in the evening.

Jiangbei City, as a representative of the business community, was invited to watch the cultural performance.

High-ranking government officials came to receive them.

Jiang Beicheng and the embassy director went up and greeted him politely.

Government officials also greeted Jiang Beicheng with friendly smiles and shook hands, expressing their respect and welcome.

He is very clear about his interpersonal relationships and social influence here.

"Mr. Jiang, please."

We warmly invite Jiangbei City to sit down at the Grand Theater to watch the cultural performance.

Jiang Beicheng, representing the Dongda business community, sat in the first row.

This cultural performance was of very high quality.

The event featured performances by many well-known artists, as well as representative works of culture and art from both countries.

The government representative here knew that Jiang Beicheng had made great achievements in the fields of culture and entertainment, and asked Jiang Beicheng in a questioning tone, "Did any of the programs at tonight's cultural performance resonate with you, Mr. Jiang?"

Jiang Beicheng said, "The musical 'Nan Kong' gave me a profound experience."

A government leader affirmed, "The musical brought by Dongda University is epic, and I am equally deeply moved."

"Nan Kong" tells the story of the Nan Kong clan, descendants of Confucius.

Kong Zhu, a representative of the Southern Confucian clan, was invited by Kublai Khan to travel north to Dadu (Beijing) to receive the title of "Master of the World," with the intention of regaining control of the ancestral temple in Qufu and restoring the supreme status of the Confucian clan.

Faced with a status and power that countless people dream of, Kong Zhu made the decision to "bow down the title," refusing Kublai Khan's offer and instead staying in Quzhou to observe mourning for his ancestors.

His understanding of "cultural heritage," "family and country," and "the way of the scholar" has been recognized and respected by later generations.

This has led to the formation of a unique "Southern Confucian Culture".

"Southern Confucian culture" is not merely the preservation and continuation of cultural flames through historical changes; what it leaves for future generations to explore is the true inheritance of cultural traditions and the integrity of scholars.

In particular, the understanding of "patriotism".

Jiang Beicheng believed he possessed the integrity and character of a scholar.

From the moment Jewish financial groups began testing him, he became a key focus of attention for Western countries.

It's no exaggeration to say that if he had taken a step back or softened his stance, the actual benefits and international standing he would have gained would have been far greater than they are now.

But he didn't do that.

In his words: The true nation and its people are the spiritual core accumulated over thousands of years of culture.

Wherever I go, I carry a sense of pride with me.

This sense of pride will not make him bow his head or bend his knees.

It's the same no matter who the opponent is.

Today, the government leaders here are clearly only focused on the live performance of the musical "Nan Kong," giving great recognition to the actors' performances and the sheer impact of the show, without trying to understand its core spirit.

After talking with Jiang Beicheng, they were full of praise.

I am amazed that the "elites of the era of Dongda University" before me truly live up to their name.

This young man exudes the integrity of a scholar, which is admirable.

After watching the performance, Jiang Beicheng personally went backstage to the artists' dressing room.

"Quickly, stop what you're doing. An important person is coming to visit you."

Upon hearing the news, the team leader rushed to the dressing room to inform the actors, and was extremely excited.

The actors looked at the team leader with confusion, their first thought being that government leaders were coming to visit them.

The team leader said excitedly, "Your performance tonight has been recognized by Mr. Jiang, and he has come to visit you."

"Mr. Jiang? Jiang Beicheng, the Emperor of the Chinese Entertainment Industry?"

The actors whispered among themselves.

Instantly, shocked faces appeared on their faces.

Previously, there was a clear hierarchy of disdain within China's cultural and artistic circles: literature looked down on traditional folk arts, traditional folk arts looked down on film, and film looked down on television dramas...

However, when Jiangbei City took control of the entertainment industry, it broke this hierarchy of contempt, allowing more artists to be respected and gain greater benefits.

In the eyes of the performers, Jiangbei City was like a god.

They were incredibly excited to hear that Mr. Jiang had come to visit them.

Hurry up and get ready to welcome them.

After listening to Jiang Beicheng's interpretation of "Nan Kong", the government representatives accompanied him backstage to visit the actors.

"Mr. Jiang."

"Mr. Jiang!"

...The actors addressed him politely.

While I was excited, I was also a little nervous. My voice and body were trembling when I spoke and shook hands with Mr. Jiang. I had never met such an important person before.

Without exaggeration, from a practical standpoint, Mr. Jiang's words carry far more weight than those of an entertainment company boss. (End of Chapter)
