The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 457 Konzern?
“That’s the basic situation. So, when you were simulating the future, did you find anything relevant?” Angela asked after briefly introducing someone’s suggestion.

“If you’re talking about the 08 financial crisis, then it definitely happened,” Fan Bingbing nodded.

“I’ve simulated it too,” Liu Qianqian added.

Yang Mi, standing next to her, couldn't help but look surprised: "Hey, what were you simulating when you came across this?"

"Want to know?" Liu Qianqian smiled smugly. "I'm not telling you!"

Da Mimi immediately rolled her eyes.

Meanwhile, Lee Yoon-hyung said, "I simulated Lehman Brothers going bankrupt in 08. They had connections with South Korean capital before the bankruptcy."

Then she countered, "Among us, you're American, so you should know more."

“I do know more, but I still have no clue what caused the financial crisis,” Angela shrugged. “I’ve also suspected an overheated real estate market and securities problems, but…”

As she said this, she suddenly frowned, as if she had thought of something important and difficult to decide.

"But what?" Fan Bingbing couldn't help but ask.

"It's nothing, just... a deduction, no evidence." Angela's eyes flickered. "Let's talk about investing in the battery industry. Do you want to join?"

“I can join, but at most I can help you with a simulation; I can’t take care of anything else.” Fan Bingbing spread her hands. “I also have a catering group to keep an eye on, which is also a heavy asset.”

“We have a toy company, which is also considered a heavy asset, right?” Liu Qianqian asked.

"What Sisi means is that joining is fine, but we also have our own things to manage," Yang Mi sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose before adding.

“As long as they don’t shirk their responsibilities when I need them, that’s fine,” Angela said, not expecting too much. “However, I need to remind everyone that asset-heavy companies shouldn’t put our people in management positions. They are more suitable to be supervisors. Let professionals handle the professional tasks.”

"Are we considered professionals?" Liu Qianqian asked suddenly.

"If you're willing to do deep learning after simulating professional content, then of course it counts," Yang Mi complained.

"Well... let's forget about it..." Liu Qianqian chuckled awkwardly.

“If necessary, we can cross-shareholdings,” Li Yunxin suddenly said, “I mean, each other’s asset-heavy companies.”

“Well… cross-shareholding is fine,” Fan Bingbing thought for a moment, “but the specific plan still needs to be discussed.”

Li Yunxin nodded, about to say something, when Angela suddenly spoke up: "Wait, why... can't we establish a corporation?"

"Concern?" Fan Bingbing looked bewildered.

Liu Qianqian tugged at Yang Mi and asked in a low voice, "What is a Concern?"

“Kangcaien is me.” Yang Mi rolled her eyes at her.

"Huh?" Liu Qianqian asked, puzzled.

"What I mean is, I don't know!" Yang Mi sighed.

Finally, Li Yunxin continued, "I personally have no objection to the Concern, but isn't it missing a bank or financial institution?"

“Lehman Brothers,” Angela reminded her, “you just said they went bankrupt.”

“Of course, I remember it very clearly, but…” Li Yunxin recalled, “Their talks did not go smoothly, otherwise Lehman Brothers would not have gone bankrupt.”

“Not surprising. I’ve heard of Richard Fuld. He’s not a good-tempered person, especially considering he led Lehman Brothers for over a decade,” Angela nodded. “If it were American or European capital, he might be more polite, but…”

She didn't finish her sentence, but everyone knew what she meant. "Don't take it too seriously," Angela added. "Even if it's Western capital, he'll only be polite for a moment; his arrogance will still be there."

"Then what do you still want..." Li Yunxin frowned.

“Give it a try. How will we know the outcome if we don’t try?” Angela waved her hand dismissively. “Besides, if even a long-established investment bank like Lehman Brothers goes bankrupt, other financial institutions will definitely be in trouble too. There will always be targets to take advantage of.”

"Then I have no objection." Li Yunxin shrugged.

“Oh right, that like…” Angela thought of something and added, but before she could finish, she was interrupted: “He gave it to me. After I use it, you can let ‘Facebook’ use it.”

“Alright, alright,” Angela sighed. “Well then, that’s enough for today. Bingbing, Xixi, and Mimi, I don’t need to tell you what you need to simulate, right?”

“The 08 financial crisis, and the prospects of the conglomerate,” Fan Bingbing nodded.

"Then it's the same, we'll be going now." Liu Qianqian stood up with Yang Mi.

Once outside, Liu Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought I was called over for something important, but it turns out it's just about investing in American real estate."

"4 million yuan as principal, 400 million yuan in two years, are you in?" Yang Mi asked with a sidelong glance.

"Yes, of course I'll do it. Why wouldn't I?" Liu Qianqian, who had just acted indifferent, readily agreed.

"Anyway, when you get back, remember to simulate the specific situation of the 08 financial crisis, and what it would be like if everyone decided to set up a consortium." Yang Mi, who was already used to her whimsical remarks, was too lazy to care about so much. "By the way, remember to learn about the concept of a consortium, and think about what our positioning would be if it succeeds."

"Can I not learn it?" Liu Qianqian immediately made a face.

"Sure, whatever you want," Yang Mi shrugged.

Liu Qianqian was momentarily stunned, and after being overtaken by Yang Mi, she grumbled and followed.

Then, as if remembering something, she grabbed the other person again: "Oh dear, this is a bit of a problem. If we split the $500 million share between the two of us, what about my mom? What will happen to her?"

Yang Mi sighed, looking utterly exhausted, but still patiently asked, "What did you call him?"

"Call me...call me Papa..." Liu Qianqian's face flushed slightly, and her voice stammered a little, "That...that's not serious, I was just saying it for fun...to...to annoy him..."

"So, why don't we just have Auntie ask him for an idea?" Yang Mi sighed, rubbing her forehead.

"That makes sense!" Liu Qianqian's eyes lit up, and she immediately took the other person's arm happily. "As expected of Mi'er, you came up with an idea right away."

He tried to get closer to her, pouting his lips, but she slapped him away.

"Stop fooling around," Yang Mi said irritably as she arrived in the lobby. "Don't fall behind in your studies even after you get back to the set. I'll come and exchange information with you after I join the crew in a few days."

"I know..." Liu Qianqian pouted unhappily, "You won't even want to ride in the car with me anymore."

"Because I got my driver's license." Yang Mi rarely showed a proud expression, then waved to the round-faced girl who was waiting in the lounge and had already stood up: "Let's go, Liying."

"Okay, boss." The assistant quickly ran over.

"Hurry up and leave, or she'll come after us again," Da Mimi whispered, quickening her pace as she walked away.

After getting into the car outside, she breathed a sigh of relief, then glanced at her assistant: "What are you laughing at, Zhao Liying?"

"I just think the way the boss and Sister Xixi interact is very interesting." Zhao Liying covered her mouth, trying to appear serious.
