Rebooting the top stars, starting with Extreme Challenge

Chapter 62 Commercial Real Estate Purchase

At the final recording location, Wang Zijian appeared as a referee to tally the income of both teams.

The bad guys team earned a total of 2,354 yuan.

With an initial investment of less than 600 yuan, profits can be made in 90 minutes...

The numbers alone show just how thoroughly evil the villains are.

Then the Good Guys team earned a total of 2,502 yuan.

Even worse than the villains...

With the clapperboard clapping, the recording of this episode has come to an end.

To be honest, nobody really wanted to have a get-together.

Because everyone's work is demanding these days.

Everyone is quite tired.

Having a meal together is also quite an energy-consuming activity.

But there was no way around it; this episode wasn't just about the six of them, there were also guests.

So when we got back to the hotel, we quickly washed up and met up in the dining room.

Everyone chatted a lot at the dinner table.

Because of the special relationship between Jiang Chengyu and Chen Qiaoen, the conversation inevitably veered towards this topic.

The previous text was not a lie.

For nearly seven years, unless there was some deep-seated hatred, nothing else mattered.

Jiang Chengyu and Chen Qiaoen chatted with everyone openly.

The two even reminisced about the past, one after the other.

Then the conversation was completely disjointed.

The conversation inexplicably shifted from Jiang Chengyu and Chen Qiaoen to Taiwanese entertainment.

They then switched from talking about Taiwanese entertainment to talking about mainland Chinese entertainment.

During this period, several people revealed a number of shocking revelations that left outsiders speechless.

Then the conversation shifted from the Chinese entertainment industry to the drama "Fated to Love You".

There's also some gossip surrounding this show.

It was also a piece of gossip that determined Chen Qiaoen's career path.

To talk about this gossip, we first have to talk about the success of "Fated to Love You".

This show is amazing.

Whether in terms of viewership ratings or commercial appeal, it holds the record for the most popular Taiwanese idol drama to date.

Then, at a certain famous award that year, almost everyone agreed that Chan Kiu-yan would definitely win Best Actress.

At that time, the only one who could compare with Chen Qiaoen was Lin Yichen from "It Started With a Kiss 2".

It's pretty good on its own.

But compared to the first installment, it's a complete disappointment.

Not to mention comparing it to "Fated to Love You".

Therefore, Lin Yichen is seen by the public as just a runner-up.

Then, unsurprisingly, an unexpected event occurred.

Lin Yichen became the Best Actress in that year's competition.

The organizer's reason was a bit outrageous, and I dare not go into details.

It's worth mentioning that after the awards ceremony, Chen Qiaoen began to focus her career in mainland China.

There have been more than one or two brainless things done by some organizers of Taiwanese entertainment events.

They chatted more and more until they were full and satisfied.

Feeling that it was about time, everyone went back to their rooms.

Actually, Jiang Chengyu didn't really want to go back to his room by himself.

But there's nothing we can do; the objective facts don't allow it.

Like I said, everyone is exhausted today.

Back in the room, nothing was said that night.

The next day, after getting up and greeting everyone, Jiang Chengyu went home on his own.

He planned to rest for two days first, and then go to Hengdian to help Gan Wei get a minor role.

Jiang Chengyu's idea is quite good.

However, plans can never keep up with changes.

Jiang Chengyu had barely arrived home when he was given work to do.

People from live streaming guilds and esports clubs called him to report on their work.

There are many tasks involved, but let's start with spending money.

Both parties found their ideal office locations.

First, there are live-streaming guilds.

Jiang Chengyu had previously hinted that housing prices in Hangzhou were low.

Therefore, the live streaming guild came up with two solutions.

One option is to rent a high-rise apartment in the CBD.

For now, renting one floor is enough.

However, as the business develops, we will definitely need to rent again.

Another option is to buy it directly.

The Binjiang District of Hangzhou is currently undergoing intensive development.

Buying an entire eight-story office building would cost around 90 million.

Then there are some positive policies and support measures in the area.

The actual investment may be less than it appears on paper.

Furthermore, it will facilitate the guild's future development.

Let's talk about esports clubs.

The domestic e-sports industry is still in a semi-wild stage.

Without a mature industry chain, there is no way to establish standardized e-sports bases.

Currently, all esports clubs rent villas.

With no comparable targets, Jiang Chengyu's men set their sights on the villa.

Moreover, what they were eyeing was the later-famous Cosmic E-sports Center.

Villas on Lingshi Road.

The club members felt that both townhouses and detached villas were suitable as a base.

Now we just need to submit a report to see how much budget Jiang Chengyu will approve, whether it's renting or buying.

The above concerns spending money.

There are also things that don't cost money.

The live streaming guild has already collected almost all the relevant information.

They were just waiting for Jiang Chengyu to come up with a name for the company and then submit it for approval.

The situation with esports clubs is a bit complicated.

They also have no names.

Then the team's operation and management situation is a bit complicated.

The transfer window has now closed.

In other words, regardless of whether VG's second team changes its name or not, it will still have to use players from VG's second team.

The actual team building process will not begin until the winter transfer window at the end of the year.

Then, various adjustments and fine-tuning processes are needed.

Based on these facts, the club's management stated that the team may find it difficult to achieve results within the next two years.

In the study, after listening to the work report, Jiang Chengyu tackled each issue one by one.

Let's deal with the things that don't cost money first.

Choosing a name was easy; Jiang Chengyu already had a plan in mind.

He owns Universal Entertainment; they could definitely collaborate on that.

The live streaming guild is called Huanyu Media.

Then esports clubs can also collaborate.

Given the current domestic environment, starting a club would most likely result in losses.

But it's always better to lose as little as possible.

Jiang Chengyu planned to transfer funds from his own pocket to Bawang Chaji's.

The club name will use the English abbreviation of "Overlord Tea Princess" and "CG".

Then, if the franchise fee for BaWangChaJi is increased a little more, the losses can be perfectly offset.

There's also the matter of the transfer window.

Jiang Chengyu hadn't even thought of it unless the club mentioned it.

With such a great opportunity right in front of him, shouldn't he make some subtle adjustments and create a galactic battleship?

He's already invested money, shouldn't he go all in?

Maybe he'll even get to see his team win the championship at the Bird's Nest!

Finally, there's the matter of spending money.

Jiang Chengyu has some spare cash now, so without hesitation, he simply said, "Buy!"

Housing prices in Hangzhou are indeed cheap at present.

Jiang Chengyu plans to buy several villas and large apartments in good locations.

We can rent it out to online celebrities later, or use it as internal incentives for senior executives.

However, Jiang Chengyu does not intend to allow live streaming guilds and e-sports clubs to buy houses.

He will buy a house in his own name through Universal Real Estate.

Perhaps we can take this opportunity to expand our market.

After purchasing them, they will be rented to live streaming guilds and esports clubs.

Those residences were then leased back to Universal Realty.

Jiang Chengyu has always operated in this way.

He's almost lost count of how many properties he owns now.

All I know is that Huanyu Real Estate pays him over three million yuan in rent every quarter.

Once the decision was made, Zhang Ruonan's work began.

Jiang Chengyu has long since passed the stage of personally looking at and buying houses.

The current process is that Huanyu Real Estate prepares the properties, and Zhang Ruonan goes to see the properties and handles the paperwork.

Jiang Chengyu reaped the benefits without lifting a finger, at most only viewing a couple of real-life photos remotely.

In one day, I made sure to explain the work clearly.

With Zhang Ruonan busy, Jiang Chengyu found it boring to stay at home by himself.

She then set off for Hengdian to make a cameo appearance in "Go Princess Go".
