A perfect life begins with changing the timeline.

"Investing requires careful asset allocation. To be honest, I couldn't do what you did, Fan Bingbing, and go all in."

Inside the room, after the first game ended in a draw, the two began the second game.

This time, the two of them were clearly much more relaxed while playing chess.

"Ten million."

In front of this big star, Li Mu held almost no reservations and revealed his bottom line:

"I only plan to invest this much in real estate. After all, the payback period is a bit too long."

Upon hearing this, Fan Bingbing suddenly became curious about the young man's wealth.

Even though they're not much older than me, where did they get their money from?

However, she didn't ask, since it would be quite impolite to inquire about such a thing rashly.

She simply smiled and nodded:

"Brother Li, this ten million of yours is all I have left."

"You're so popular right now, of course you'll make money."

"Haha, then I'll take Brother Li's good wishes."

As she spoke, she placed another piece on the chessboard and then asked:

"So, where does Brother Li plan to book?"

"The ratio of Fenglin Oasis to Tianju Garden is 6:4. Fenglin Oasis is the prime location, with both grandeur and imposing presence. However, it's 1,000 yuan more expensive than Tianju Garden. I think investing in them separately is a safer approach."

"That makes sense, but I'd like to think about it. To be honest, I haven't made up my mind yet. On one hand, I want to put all my eggs in one basket at Wind Forest Oasis, but on the other hand, I think Brother Li's point is valid. I need to think about it."

"We need to hurry, since the International Olympic Committee will announce the results next month, before we go to the United States."

"Yes, I know that. Shall we go to Haidian again tomorrow?"

"it is good."

As the two chatted, more and more chess pieces appeared on the board.

The two terrible chess players still missed many opportunities to defeat each other, but they never stopped trying.

The night deepened gradually.

By nearly 10 o'clock, the two had been sitting in front of the chessboard for almost five hours.

"Ouch, my back..."

The big star stretched, complaining, but his face showed an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

When you meet your match, how exhilarating is it?

However, the hotel chairs were indeed a bit uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, she casually extended an invitation:

"Brother Li, next time you come, come to my place. Putting everything else aside, at least the chairs are much more comfortable here."

"It's not appropriate... I'm afraid it would be inconvenient for you."

Hearing Li Mu's words, Fan Bingbing smiled slightly:

"I might have concerns about others, but I definitely wouldn't have those concerns about Brother Li."

She meant it sincerely.

Having been in the entertainment industry for four years, she has seen all sorts of people, if not all.

She considered herself fairly good at judging people.

There are many people who are beasts in human form, but her intuition told her that the person in front of her was not one of them.

Absolutely not.

Following this feeling, she extended an invitation:

"How about it? Next time I'll prepare a pot of good tea at home."

"Okay, sure."

Li Mu smiled and responded.

He got up to see the guest off.

It's getting late, and we're a lone man and woman; it's time to part ways.

……

After seeing Fan Bingbing off, he took a shower and lay down on the bed.

I suddenly miss the guy in the wheelchair.

I don't know... after he made his decision, did he really disappear, or did he return to his original timeline and continue living in that wheelchair?

I wish I could run into them, so I could ask them something.

And ask him if the two places he chose are suitable for investment.

pity……

One night passed.

Still no dreams.

After having breakfast at the hotel, he got into Fan Bingbing's car again and headed straight for Haidian.

After wandering around all morning, Fan Bingbing chose Fengzeyuan Restaurant for lunch.

As the two summarized their morning's findings, Li Mu had to admit that Haidian, being home to many prestigious schools, indeed had considerable potential for school district housing.

But whether or not to invest... that's up to Fan Bingbing himself.

He didn't get involved.

He only had 40 million in his pocket: 10 million in real estate, and the remaining 30 million was his start-up capital. The wheelchair-bound man's golden rule was there; investing in real estate instead of utilizing it properly was simply unrealistic.

After lunch, it was almost time.

Li Mu declined her invitation to go to a teahouse for tea and a chat, and went straight back to the hotel to pack her things. She then took her car directly to the airport.

The two agreed on a time before getting off the bus.

Regarding the price, Fan Bingbing took the initiative to accept it.

Li Mu was indeed not very good at bargaining. After all, even the masks he bought when redeeming prizes cost fifty yuan each.

So I handed it over to her.

They agreed that they would come over to sign the contract once the price was agreed upon.

As for how to invest... she chose the same 60/40 split as Li Mu.

The two reached a complete consensus.

Finally, amidst the big star's "Have a safe trip" wishes, Li Mu waved goodbye and dragged his suitcase straight to the airport.

Only after passing through security did I realize that I seemed to have forgotten to tell the other person about what Brother Bie had asked me to do.

Tsk, what a memory...

Then, around 8 p.m., I returned to Guangzhou.

The busy weekend is finally over.

On Monday, he received a newspaper from Sui Kuan.

On Saturday, in the entertainment section of the newspaper, photos of the filming of Zhang Yimou's "Hero" were placed in the most prominent position on the second page.

But Li Mu remained calm this time. After thanking him, he picked up the mop and began cleaning.

At the start of this week, Li Mu noticed that he was significantly busier than before.

He hadn't seen Sui Kuan much since Monday afternoon.

He passed his written driving test and went to practice driving.

There were only two new interns in the entire Arts and Sports Department. Since Sui Kuan wasn't there, a lot of miscellaneous tasks fell to him.

Whether it's distributing manuscript paper, collecting office supplies, cleaning, or other tasks... and some veteran reporters have also started dumping unimportant news stories on him.

Just like the group of elderly men practicing Qigong that I interviewed last time, today it's either a public health evaluation event held in this community or a school over there starting campus renovations, and so on.

The news items weren't big, but they were very trivial.

It took up a lot of his time.

And it wasn't just him; everyone in the other departments was the same.

The first month of an internship is meant for interns to get familiar with the work. After more than half a month of adjustment, the workload that was originally supposed to be theirs has gradually increased.

This week, Bie Yan didn't contact him at all.

But he still kept running around, extremely busy.

Furthermore, he would occasionally discuss property prices with Fan Bingbing, which was quite a blatant disregard for her true intentions.

Time flies, and this week has passed just like that.

On Friday, he was notified by HR to go and collect his purple Hong Kong and Macao travel permit.

In other words, from this moment on, he can travel freely to Hong Kong and Macau with this travel permit... It has to be admitted that the speed of handling procedures between government entities is really fast.

Then he called Bie Yan to tell him that his Hong Kong and Macau travel permit had been issued.

There was a commotion on the other end of the line, and I didn't know what was going on. I gave a quick reply and then hung up the phone.

On Saturday afternoon, he took a taxi to the headquarters of Guangfa Bank again.

Holding the invitation, he re-entered the venue to attend the investment conference. Upon entering the club, his first instinct was to look around, hoping to find Zhao Fengrui.

Unexpectedly, they spotted the other person chatting with two middle-aged men.

When Li Mu looked at him, the fat man, who always kept his eyes and ears open, also happened to see this place.

The two looked at each other.

The next second, Li Mu nodded politely and smiled.

Zhao Fengrui was taken aback for a moment, then nodded politely in response.

then……

A few minutes later, the other party came to Li Mu's sofa.

"Mr. Li, hello, it's nice to see you again."

Li Mu smiled slightly:

"Manager Zhao, hello. I'm Li Mu, it's nice to see you again."
