Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years

Their current life is affluent and comfortable.

They do indeed depend to a large extent on their husbands' careers.

Even Gu Jia herself is the best example, isn't she? Of course, Gu Jia could find many reasons to argue. But she felt there was no need to force an argument.

She couldn't bring herself to do something so shameful.

Gu Jia is a person who cares about her reputation.

At least compared to those wives who have no autonomy, Gu Jia manages both the company and the home, wielding considerable power. Her biggest discomfort was touched upon by Li Haoyu.

That was her husband, Xu Huanshan.

He's definitely not a business talent; he's a modern-day version of a hopeless case.

Li Haoyu smiled and said to Gu Jia, "Being like your husband isn't necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes being an entrepreneur isn't a good thing either."

"You should know that entrepreneurs are the most miserable group of people."

"There's a saying that really hits home: 'In China, entrepreneurs are either in prison or on their way to prison.' This isn't a joke; it's a harsh reality that countless people have witnessed."

"What are you spacing out for?"

Seeing that Gu Jia looked thoughtful, Li Haoyu continued, "There's nothing to be discouraged about. Your company has only been established for a few years anyway."

"Plus, your husband is not yet forty years old, still in his prime. As long as he continues to work hard, he is very likely to achieve even better results."

Gu Jia found it odd; how did the conversation suddenly turn to her husband? And why did his words sound so Versailles-like? Was he offering advice or showing off?

Why does that sound so infuriating?

Gu Jia saw that he looked like he was from Versailles.

It couldn't help but get a little angry.

Her tone became much harsher, "Mr. Li, you're really joking. You're completely oblivious to the hunger of the starving."

"You know how difficult it is to run a physical business; how can it compare to your game companies making money hand over fist?"

Li Haoyu said calmly, "The key is that I was just lucky! If the next game flops, the company could go bankrupt in an instant."

Gu Jia never expected that Li Haoyu was still like Versailles.

She was a little angry, and then started complaining, "President Li, you really are out of touch with reality. Running a company isn't that easy. If we had half of your luck, it wouldn't be so difficult for us."

Li Haoyu couldn't help but say, "Do you know how hard it is to start a business? I've already made a decent living, but I've still practically turned myself into a calculator!"

"It also led me to develop a few bad habits. For example, I don't allow any idle funds to be kept in the bank. They must either be invested in wealth management products or used in the purchase and sale of goods."

"Otherwise, I would feel that it's tying up capital costs, a huge waste!"

After hearing this, Gu Jia's expression softened considerably.

"You're such a big company boss... do you really need to work this hard? It seems you have it tough too!"

Li Haoyu continued, "Yes, I even use my credit card for all my purchases and never use cash, so I can postpone cash expenditures."

"It's still to ensure I have enough cash flow. Now, even if I buy a piece of clothing, I will definitely choose an interest-free installment payment method."

"The money saved by living within our means can cover another month's employee salaries."

After Li Haoyu finished speaking, he said to Gu Jia, "After hearing these little stories I made up, do you feel much more balanced now?"

Gu Jia seemed to still be recovering, "I'm much better..."

She realized what was happening and said with a surprised look, "So you mean everything you just said was just to fool me?"

"Of course!"

Li Haoyu looked aggrieved. "I can't exactly tell you the truth. I'm a hands-off manager. I delegate everything to the senior executives and just count the money myself."

"You...this..."

Gu Jia was so angry with Li Haoyu that she didn't know what to say.

She could no longer speak clearly.

Gu Jia: "………"

Li Haoyu continued to comfort Gu Jia in the tone of a successful person, saying, "Sometimes it's better if you don't listen to these harsh truths."

"Otherwise, you'll lose your determination to start your own business. Actually, I didn't want to say these things, but I feel that we have a good personal relationship, so there's no need to say anything empty or meaningless."

"Isn't it better to be honest with each other?"

Gu Jia pouted and said, "You really shouldn't have said those things. I wish I had your kind of troubles. What you said is really infuriating."

Li Haoyu continued, "But you're already outstanding enough. Among all the female entrepreneurs I've met, you're one of the most capable. Keep up the good work, you'll succeed!"

Gu Jia was still somewhat proud to have gained Li Haoyu's approval.

She said, "Actually, it's nothing special. Although I had the opportunity to start my own business right after graduation, I chose a different path. Otherwise, I might have achieved some success by now."

Li Haoyu couldn't bring himself to say anything more.

This Gu Jia is quite adept at taking advantage of opportunities.

Can't you tell that these words are just to comfort you?

Starting a business is never that easy!

When Gu Jia saw that Li Haoyu stopped talking, she assumed that he also knew that he had said something wrong.

She nodded slightly and said to Li Haoyu, "We've talked enough, why don't we go and see the others together?"

"Mr. Li, you actually came in person?"

A man in a suit spotted Li Haoyu at a glance.

As for Gu Jia, he completely ignored her.

Li Haoyu nodded in acknowledgment. "Isn't this President Li? The new game should be launching soon, right?"

The man scratched his head somewhat sheepishly and said, "It's still in the final version, still polishing the details. Feedback after a new game's release is absolutely crucial right now..."

At this moment, a person next to Mr. Li said with a slightly admiring tone, "It seems that 'Don't Tap the White Tile' is not only doing incredibly well domestically. It's almost at the top of the charts internationally too!"

"Abroad?"

Gu Jia was slightly stunned after hearing this.

She found it somewhat unbelievable, "Can game content even be exported?"

"Most games don't have this capability. But Mr. Li's Snail Games is no ordinary company; its overseas performance is even better than its domestic performance. This is currently unique among game companies!"

"I heard that Snail Games has some big plans coming up."

Is this news true?

……

As Li Haoyu's identity was recognized.

Before they knew it, more and more people had gathered around.

Everyone started praising Li Haoyu.

Gu Jia was stunned.

What's the situation now?

Has his game company's business expanded to so many countries? And is it almost at the top of the game charts in several countries?

Is it really that exaggerated?
