While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

Wendy's expression grew increasingly surprised.

In the end, it was replaced by ecstasy.

She originally came for the product to improve her skin, but unexpectedly, its other effects gave her an even bigger surprise.

Even after her spiritual energy was exhausted, Wendy was still immersed in joy and hadn't come to her senses.

Wendy didn't realize what was happening until Cao Kun and Amanda finished breakfast and put their plates in the dishwasher.

"This, this... this is simply unbelievable."

Wendy's face lit up with joy, her eyes shining.

"Mr. Cao, you are amazing. This is the most amazing thing I have ever experienced in my life."

She was so excited that she even uttered the word "great".

"This is absolutely the best money I've ever spent in my life," Wendy added.

Cao Kun smiled and said, "You should go to the film set."

Amanda pulled Wendy, still immersed in joy, out the door, not forgetting to ask Cao Kun, "Are you coming again tonight?"

Cao Kun: "I'm moving to a new house today, so I won't be coming."

"Moving to a new house?" Amanda exclaimed in surprise. "You didn't mention it yesterday."

Cao Kun: "You were so tired yesterday, I didn't even have a chance to say anything."

Amanda: "Where are we moving to for our new home?"

Cao Kun: "I'll take you to see it after I finish moving."

"Okay," Amanda readily agreed, looking quite expectant.

Shortly after Amanda and her companion left, Cao Kun locked the door of Amanda's house and drove away as well.

Cao Kun spent three days getting everything ready and moving into his new home.

The stone box was checked, and the moth monster was inside perfectly fine; everything seemed normal.

Lying in this luxurious mansion that countless people envy, Cao Kun found himself not particularly excited.

After he came into this world, he never felt a strong sense of belonging.

If it weren't for his constantly improving cultivation level and the women who kept appearing around him, he might have doubted whether this world was real.

But no matter what, having this house is a good thing.

And that 2000 million.

Cao Kun doesn't plan to use the 2000 million to buy stocks.

The stock market cycle is too slow, and now is not the time for those few stocks to explode. He plans to use it to make a quick buck.

However, while it's called quick money, the cycle isn't actually short; it's just faster than stocks.

Cao Kun called Douglas: "Douglas, do you know Marvel's CEO Avi and major shareholder Perlmutter?"

Douglas: "Although I live in Hollywood, I don't know much about what's going on in Hollywood."

However, I know some people who might be interested in meeting you; I can invite them for you.

Cao Kun: "Okay."

Douglas: "Master Cao, I'm just curious, why are you suddenly paying attention to Marvel? Isn't that a comic book company?"

Cao Kun thought about it and realized that he didn't have much money right now.

Even though Marvel is in a slump now, 2000 million is still a lot of money for them.

But its size is undeniable.

Marvel's current market value is around $10 billion.

Moreover, Marvel is now ambitious and in a period of preparing to go all in.

They are preparing to produce their own film.

However, due to a lack of funds, it is currently only in the planning stage.

Next year, they will pledge the characters "Thor" and "Captain America" ​​to Merrill Lynch and obtain a loan of $5.25 million.

It was from that point that they truly began to take off.

They haven't really gone crazy yet, and they should welcome a large influx of funds.

Previously, Cao Kun lacked financial resources, so even if he knew these things, it wouldn't have mattered.

But now, it seems Cao Kun is ready to be seated, and it's the perfect opportunity to seize it.

But his money was only enough for what was served at the table.

However, things would be different if Douglas were involved.

Cao Kun suddenly asked directly, "Douglas, how much money do you have right now?"

Douglas paused for a moment, then said after a few seconds, "My liquid assets are around $10 billion."

Cao Kun was taken aback.

He knew Douglas was rich.

A house worth 3000 million was given away directly, and a check for 2000 million was given directly.

But I never expected him to be so rich.

While $10 billion isn't a particularly large sum, it represents liquid assets.

Conservative estimates put Douglas's total assets at around $50 billion.

This is still due to the previous setbacks and losses.

Of course, although this asset is substantial, it won't be enough for Mr. Dong to manipulate the stock market and earn in a single day.

Cao Kun: "Douglas, want to make some quick money?"

When Douglas heard about making money, his tone changed: "What kind of quick money? How long is the cycle? What's the rate of return? How high are the risks?"

Cao Kun: "Let's talk in person."

Being in Beverly Hills, it was much more convenient for Cao Kun and the Douglas family.

Soon, Cao Kun appeared in the Douglas family's living room.

After a long talk, Douglas understood what Cao Kun meant by making quick money.

"You mean, Marvel is planning to make its own movies? And you're very optimistic about them?"

"So, you're planning to buy their shares now, and then sell them when their movie becomes a huge hit and their stock price soars?"

Cao Kun: "That's roughly the idea, the return cycle..."

Cao Kun thought about the time when Disney acquired Marvel, and it seemed to be around 2009.

Cao Kun: "The return cycle is about 5 years."

Douglas asked, "Approximately how much can we earn?"

Cao Kun: "If you invest 5 million now, you can conservatively earn 2 million in 5 years."

Douglas smiled and shook his head: "Master Cao, I have 100% faith in you when it comes to exorcism."

But when it comes to investing, please forgive me for not being able to trust it.

Five years is too long for me.

If I can really make that 2 million, I can definitely agree to it.

However, the film industry has always been one of the riskiest industries.

I will not participate in this investment.

Cao Kun was taken aback for a moment, but then he understood.

This was a 100% chance for him to make money.

But Douglas was unaware of these things.

He was an exorcist, yet he never demonstrated his business acumen.

It's unrealistic to expect someone to come up with hundreds of millions of dollars just by talking nonsense.

Douglas then said, "Master Cao, how about this? If you really believe in this investment opportunity, I can lend you $1 million interest-free."

You just need to return it within 3 years.

If you are unable to repay the debt by then, you can use your magical elixir to settle it.

Cao Kun laughed: "No need. You help me organize a small auction within your circle of wealthy people; I want to put my pills up for auction."

"Put it up for auction?" Douglas nodded. "That's a good idea. There should be a lot of people interested in your kind of pills."

Cao Kun laughed and said, "I have more than just those kinds of pills."

"What?" Douglas exclaimed in surprise, "You have something better?"

"Not bad." Cao Kun nodded slightly. "Before, I was worried that if you ate it, your image would change drastically, which would affect your business and company, so I didn't give it to you."

Douglas hurriedly asked, "What are the effects of this pill you're talking about?"
