CSGO Unboxing Streamer: A Charity-Driven Tycoon

The release of Chapter 147 will have an impact.

Lu Zhen invited Lu Yiming to dinner.

The purpose is still to listen attentively.

Each side brought two people to the dinner.

During the meal, the conversation revolved around future cooperation.

The atmosphere should emphasize a joyful and convivial gathering.

A bright future awaited them.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill...

Slightly tipsy, Lu Zhen stood up and looked at Lu Yiming, saying, "Mr. Lu! Would it be convenient for us to go outside and have a few words?"

Lu Yiming could guess what he was going to say.

He immediately nodded, got up, and followed him outside.

Although it's described as outdoor, it's actually just a boardwalk near Moon Lake.

Lu Zhen leaned against the fence, looked at Lu Yiming, and smiled, "I think President Lu should know what I want to ask."

To those in the know, Di Ting's potential is like a young girl wearing only a thin veil.

It can be said that as long as it is operated properly.

Listening to the truth can bring immense wealth.

This wealth could even surpass that of the Perfect World Group.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yiming was about to refuse.

But at this moment, Lu Zhen seemed to know what he was going to say.

Turning to look at the lake, he sighed, "President Lu! You should know that some things cannot be protected by one person alone. Although Di Ting is excellent enough, there is still a long way to go before it can be popularized, and this road may not be smooth sailing!"

This is a case of hidden meaning in the words.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yiming laughed and said, "You're absolutely right! But I have great confidence in Diting. I dare say that there won't be any competitors that can rival Diting in the market for at least ten years!"

At this moment, both of them were looking at the lake.

They couldn't see each other's expressions.

What alarmed Lu Zhen was Lu Yiming's confidence.

Ten years?
Let alone ten years, if Diting can persist for five years, it will be enough to grow into a company worth tens of billions.

Lu Zhen estimated that he would die within a year or so at most.

But it was within this year or so.

If the strategic layout is correct enough, it is entirely possible to leave no room for subsequent competitors to survive.

It was with this idea in mind.

I want to have a serious talk with Lu Yiming about the possibility of cooperation.

But Lu Yiming's confidence exceeded his expectations. He didn't believe that Lu Yiming wouldn't understand the deeper meaning even though he had spoken so bluntly. This meant that Di Ting might have some information that he didn't know.

Then he turned to Lu Yiming and smiled, "I hope so! Finally, I wish us a pleasant cooperation!"

It is clear.

Lu Yiming never intended to give anyone else a chance to board the ship.

He stopped worrying about it.

Looking at Lu Zhen's outstretched hand.

Lu Yiming shook hands and smiled, saying, "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you!"

Lu Zhen was to return to the company that day to prepare for the press conference the following day.

Since Lu Yiming's appearance during his live stream last night, people in the industry have been discussing the specifics of their collaboration.

From individual players to some companies.

Everyone was very curious as to why Perfect World "surrendered" so quickly.

The next morning.

Lu Zhen announced to the media that he had reached a strategic partnership with Fanxing eSports platform.

At the same time, it was announced that the Perfect World eSports platform project was terminated.

The relevant personnel have been merged into Fanxing All-People Esports.

At the same time, it was announced that it had exchanged resources worth 400 million yuan and cash worth 200 million yuan for 15 percent of the shares of Funan Star Technology Co., Ltd.

It was explained that the 400 million yuan in resources was originally intended for the Perfect World eSports platform.

The scene of the announcement.

The invited media reporters were all stunned.

Most of those present were business media representatives, along with some invited minority shareholders of the group.

They all didn't understand Lu Zhen's actions.

The total value is six hundred million!
The 400 million yuan in resources is somewhat inflated, but even with that, it can only be reduced by half at most.

In addition, there will be 200 million yuan in cash paid in installments over two years.

This is Funan Fanxing Technology Co., Ltd., which only operates one national e-sports platform.

What can we use to justify this investment?

And it's only 15 percent of the shares!
Interview session with reporters.

A female reporter in the front row stood up and said, "Hello! Mr. Lu! I'm a reporter from Sina Investment! Has this cooperation been discussed by the board of directors? Also, why is it worth such a high price for a company whose business is still in internal testing? I think these two questions are the topics that shareholders are most concerned about after this press conference!"

These are the two questions that everyone present wants to know.

Although the media personnel all accepted red envelopes.

But the red envelope was only enough to get him to polish the manuscript a little.

It will not affect their subjective judgment.

However, their current subjective judgment is that Lu Zhen has gone mad.

There's no reason someone would make this decision unless they're crazy.

Lu Zhen faced this problem.

Looking solemnly at the crowd below, he said, "The core of the group right now is to promote e-sports projects, which has always been my principle, including the Perfect E-sports platform. But unfortunately, after the emergence of Fanxing All-People E-sports, I found that I could no longer see a future for my own platform. It is precisely for the future of the group that I made this difficult choice to stop the Perfect E-sports platform project and join Fanxing All-People E-sports platform to jointly develop the e-sports market!"

This was said to stock market investors.

At this point, Lu Zhen continued, "I feel deeply guilty about the project of Perfect Esports Platform being abandoned halfway. However, I was forced to choose to cut my losses in time when I knew that I could not see a future. Fortunately, the future of Fanxing All-People Esports Platform is good enough. In my opinion, this cooperation is a very beneficial thing for the group, whether in the long term or in the short term. That is why I was able to convince the board of directors!"

Having said that.

This means that Lu Zhen has already responded to the reporter's first question.

Then comes the second question.

Lu Zhen adjusted his glasses and continued, "I know that after the announcement, many shareholders will question the correctness of the group's cooperation, but I want to tell you that since the internal testing of the Fanxing All-People Esports Platform for more than half a month, it has truly achieved zero cheating. I went to investigate the Diting anti-cheat device they use, and I can say with certainty that as long as you have the Diting software, the platform will not be affected by cheating. I think once you know this, you should be able to understand why I paid such a high price to obtain 0% of the shares, and you should also be able to understand why I terminated the Perfect Esports Platform project and chose to cooperate with the Fanxing All-People Esports Platform for development!"

The words fell.

Many people at the press conference were whispering among themselves.

Most of these people were stock market investors who had arrived at the press conference.

At this moment, the female reporter from Sina Investment handed the microphone to the male reporter next to her.

He then took the microphone.

The male reporter stood up and said, "Hello! I'm a reporter from Eastmoney! Mr. Lu, you mentioned Diting. Would you mind telling me more about this software? I'm sure it's the key to your decision, Mr. Lu?"

Perfect World has a market value of 20 billion yuan.

However, this investment amounted to 600 million.

Without substantial evidence, it's impossible to convince investors. To put it bluntly, this press conference is deeply related to the future stock price trend of Perfect World.

Whether it goes down or up.

It remains to be seen whether Lu Zhen can persuade them.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhen nodded and said, "That's right! What made me decide was this Di Ting software! However, I regret that I cannot explain the Di Ting software in detail in this situation. This will have to wait for our partner to release it separately. I have already said what I can say earlier: as long as you have the Di Ting software, the platform will not be affected by cheats!"

Lu Zhen said this with great confidence.

It has a sense of soul resonance with Lu Yiming.

Especially since he used the term "our platform" at that moment.

The news was released immediately.

It immediately caused a small-scale sensation.

Perfect World's investment this time is considerable. Receiving only 15% of the 600 million yuan investment means that they believe the current value of the Starry Sky platform has reached 4 billion yuan.

Converted according to business logic.

This company needs to grow to a scale of tens of billions within at least three years to justify this investment.

however.

How can a gaming esports platform achieve a market value of tens of billions within three years?

It's important to understand that gaming platforms and game companies are completely different things.

The former is just a mobile operator.

The press conference concluded that day.

Perfect World's shares also experienced turmoil.

The stock closed down exactly five percent that day.

A half-limit-down move wiped out 1 billion yuan of Perfect World's market value.

The next day, it hit the daily limit down again.

This caused Perfect World's market value to plummet from 20 billion to 18 billion.

On average, one billion evaporates every day.

This is the horror of the stock market!
However, the external turmoil did not initially affect the internal situation.

at this time.

Perfect World Group intervened to rescue the market, stabilizing its market value at 18 billion yuan and absorbing all the shares sold off in panic by retail investors.

As statements were continuously issued.

Perfect World also held a board meeting on the third day after the press conference.

This board meeting was initiated by the executive director.

Unlike previous online meetings.

This meeting was held at the company.

After Lu Zhen came in.

Looking at the directors with their various expressions, he laughed and said, "What? You can't withstand the pressure after less than three days?"

Lu Zhen had already anticipated the stock market turmoil.

They even estimated the approximate drop.

The accuracy is pretty much what he said.

At this moment, the person representing the interests of the company's minority shareholders said, "The market value collapsed by 2.5 billion in three days. Mr. Lu spent 600 million on investment, and you spent another 1 billion to save the market. You have to give us some explanation."

Minority shareholders are a group of people who own less than one percent of the shares. Together, they hold more than three percent of the shares.

They have gained considerable influence.

This board meeting was initiated by them jointly.

Lu Zhen did not speak upon hearing this.

The middle-aged man looked over and smiled, "How about this! If you want to exit, how about selling your shares to the company at yesterday's closing price?"

That's how it is with minority shareholders.

They can't stand the slightest disturbance.

He panicked when he saw the value of his shares depreciating.

These major shareholders are different.

Lu Zhen communicated with them individually, and after understanding his confidence and plans, he chose to support him.

This stock market turmoil.

It appears they are losing money to bail out the market.

However, they also bought back some shares held by retail investors at low prices.

We just need to wait for the stock market to stabilize.

They can just keep throwing it out.

The money earned from this round trip is much more than the business profit.

Upon hearing this, the representative was speechless.

His aim was to try and get more information from Lu Zhen.

But one sentence from this independent director put them in a corner.

at the same time.

Lu Yiming's side is not peaceful.

The Perfect World press conference has concluded.

Lu Yiming's company has finally caught the attention of the local leaders in Xingcheng.

There is a local company that is valued at 4 billion by a company with a market value of 20 billion.

And it's an internet company!
This has led to Lu Yiming's Starry Sky Technology Company resembling a tourist attraction.

They received wave after wave of visits.

However, they weren't all there for tourism. After learning about Lu Yiming's outstanding contributions to charity, they hinted that Lu Yiming's name would be among this year's top ten outstanding young entrepreneurs in the province.

of course.

What followed was an invitation to a charity gala.

Looking at the plaques from the caring companies that were sent along with the gift.

Lu Yiming shook his head and sighed, "Sometimes being too flashy isn't a good thing! I still prefer to make a fortune quietly!"

Cao Siyun stood in front of Lu Yiming's desk.

Hearing this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

He then said softly, "Mr. Lu, are you going to the banquet? Local charitable donations can be directly deducted from corporate value-added tax. I suggest you donate 500,000!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yiming shook his head.

After putting down the invitation and the sign.

After much deliberation, he said in a deep voice, "Three hundred thousand for each primary school! I'll donate one from each of my four companies, plus one donated in the name of my live stream, making a total of five! It's time to do something for the local community!"

Lu Yiming is not opposed to charity.

On the contrary, they are very supportive.

After all, it was just something he could do.

It's not like I'm going to seriously injure him.

It's like if he just received his 3,000 yuan salary and saw a little girl in tattered clothes looking at him with a broken bowl, he would still grit his teeth and give her a red bill.

One and a half million is a sum for him right now.

That's about the income from a five-day live-streaming sales session.

Upon hearing this, Cao Siyun thought it was a bit of a loss.

But then I thought of the more than 80 million that Lu Yiming had donated before.

She immediately stopped saying anything.

However, I do have some good news to tell Lu Yiming.

"Mr. Lu! The stocks you arranged for me to buy before have yielded very good returns! Should we continue to hold them?"

After the New Year, Lu Yiming selected six stocks.

He took out 50 million from the capital reserve, plus his own 5 million.

He subsequently invested an additional five million.

A total of 60 million was invested in these six stocks.

Among them, Lu Yiming invested 30 million on Saturday, 5 million in Sanbang Shares, 5 million in Chengmai Technology, and 5 million in Paisheng Technology.
Of these six stocks, only P2P Technology was viewed with the mindset of being given away for free.

At this moment, Cao Siyun finished speaking.

She picked up the tablet computer from the table and turned on the screen.

The stock information page was pushed to Lu Yiming and the speaker said, "Except for the loss of 57% in Paisheng Technology, the other five stocks had a total profit of 54 million before the market closed yesterday. Mr. Lu, do you think you should continue to hold them?"

Cao Siyun reports on the stock situation once a month.

Last month's total profit was over 33 million.

This month, it increased by more than 20 million.

Hearing this, Lu Yiming nodded and said, "Let's continue to hold on! We won't consider selling before the end of the year!"

These stocks were all chosen by him using his memories from before his rebirth.

Among them are many speculative stocks.

For example, Sanbang Technology.

He remembered one sentence about this stock.

That is, "Sanbang Technology's stock price has increased by up to 37 times in the 5 years since its listing!"

It's fair to say they haven't even started yet.

It'll probably have to wait until the company's financial report is released at the end of the year.

Lu Yiming's plan was to make 60 million and leave, since no one knew whether his rebirth would affect the stock market.

But now he's much bolder.

I've decided to aim for a small goal first.

Then, turning his gaze to Cao Siyun, he asked, "Did you buy one too? Which one did you buy?"

This is how we start chatting.

Upon hearing this, Cao Siyun didn't hide anything and said that she had also followed Lu Yiming's fund allocation and successively added 500,000 yuan worth of stocks.

Hear this.

Lu Yiming laughed and said, "You're quite clever! Unlike President Zheng, who's so stubborn!"

Hearing Lu Yiming mention Zheng Huacai.

Cao Siyun couldn't help but chuckle.

He chose one of the six teams that Lu Yiming was in.

In other words, Lu Yiming chose Derivative Technology, which was destined to lose money.

Initially, I invested 50,000 yuan.

Later, seeing that the other stocks were rising while his were falling, he stubbornly invested another 50,000 yuan, and over the next few months he gradually increased his investment to a total of 200,000 yuan.

Lu Yiming lost half of his five million.

He also lost a full third of his money.

At this moment, Cao Siyun smiled and said, "President Zheng also saw that President Lu is continuing to hold the shares!"

Hear this.

Lu Yiming was amused.

He immediately laughed and said, "Tell him to stop following me. I wouldn't care if I lost all five million, but if he loses half of his two hundred thousand, he'll probably have to sleep on the sofa tonight!"

The relationship between Zheng Huacai and Xu Yujing.

It's no secret within the company.

Upon hearing this, Cao Siyun covered her mouth and laughed.

It's easier to talk about serious topics later, which can help to bridge the gap between you and your employees.

of course.

This sense of distance shouldn't be too close either.

To avoid other problems.

The conversation eventually turned to the launch event for the product, Diting.

"Mr. Lu! Wouldn't it be better to hold the Diting launch event offline?"

Liu Zhenyun is very reluctant to hold press conferences.

Lu Yiming agreed.

But these days are different.

Originally, Diting was only followed by a small group of people.

But with the announcement of this collaboration with Perfect World...

This Diting launch event will definitely attract the attention of many companies.

Especially companies related to gaming.

Simply releasing a video is not enough to handle this level of attention.

On the contrary, it would make them seem guilty.

Hearing this, Lu Yiming nodded and said, "I'll talk to President Liu! If all else fails, we can have President Jiang handle it!"

Jiang Yuanming's understanding of Diting.

They can be said to be second only to the developers of Diting.

Cao Siyun nodded slightly upon hearing this.

He then began to write this down in his work log.

The day's report is now complete.

Lu Yiming went straight home.

Today, we received the local second-in-command and asked Lu Yiming if he had encountered any problems. Lu Yiming frankly stated that there were too many people coming, and the second-in-command made a promise.

He should be able to relax for a while now.
