Even after being reborn, you're still in the entertainment industry?

Chapter 138: Bragging...

The first Basha Charity Gala was held in 03, when Sheng Yunxuan had just been reborn.

That year, SARS broke out, and all walks of life started to donate money and materials to support the cause.

Then there was the suggestion made by Na Ying, which was to ask celebrities to auction off their unused clothes and jewelry to raise funds for charity.

That class was rather humble, with no particularly big-name stars, except for Li Yapeng.

The venue was a bar, and in the end, only a few hundred thousand were raised...

However, it must be said that Su Mang, this woman, immediately discovered the opportunity hidden in it, and held the second charity gala in a high-profile manner the following year.

The scale of the event, the celebrities who participated, and the amount of charity raised were all significantly improved compared to the first session.

This year is the third year, and the Basha Charity Night has become quite famous.

Among those who came to participate were the famous director Feng Kuazi, and celebrities such as Fan Binbin, Yu Quan, Christy Chung, and Li Xiang.

There are also some company bosses, the Wang brothers from Huayi, and Zhang Chaoyang, the man who has been appearing in the entertainment news section for the past few years...

It’s no wonder that Sheng Yunxuan is quite suitable to attend such an occasion.

After all, with his dual identities as a celebrity and a rising star in the internet industry, he can chat with anyone here!

Compared with the first charity night held in a bar, the specifications of the next two sessions were much higher, and the venues were both held in high-end hotels.

The charity night gathered so many stars and there were many things worth paying attention to, which naturally attracted the attention of the media in the circle.

More formal entertainment reporters can enter the scene to take pictures, while those paparazzi who can't sneak in can only squat outside the hotel and wait.

Sheng Yunxuan, dressed in a neat suit, gentle and refined but with an air of nobility, had just gotten out of the car when a group of paparazzi squatting at the door immediately surrounded him like hyenas.

The flashing lights all around made Sheng Yunxuan squint his eyes slightly.

The paparazzi were holding recorders and microphones, and they wanted to poke them directly into his mouth.

"Mr. Sheng, is it true that there are reports that you have successfully started a business and are worth over 100 million?"

"Mr. Sheng, are you planning to give up your acting career and focus on business?"

"Mr. Sheng, when do you plan to retire?"

"..."

……

It’s exactly what Sheng Yunxuan expected.

As soon as I showed up, the entertainment reporters and paparazzi immediately surrounded me. I didn't even need to mention it, they would focus their attention on this!

The hotel hosting the charity night naturally arranged security personnel at the door in advance, and they immediately came up to help disperse the paparazzi who were blocking Sheng Yunxuan.

One side was fighting for their jobs, while the other was also working, but because of the conflicting nature of their jobs, they started pushing and shouting at each other.

Seeing this, Sheng Yunxuan quickly signaled the hotel security to be patient, then shouted:
"I can answer some questions, but please keep quiet and don't disturb others!"

Sheng Yunxuan usually opens the entry of [Watch of the Sun and the Moon]. Although his temperament is gentle and comfortable, it makes people feel close to him and there is no fear.

But when he starts to speak seriously, he also has the ability to make people calm down and listen!
With just this one sentence, the originally noisy and chaotic hotel entrance became much quieter. Sheng Yunxuan continued loudly:

"Most of the public opinion about my entrepreneurship is true. I founded Liudu.com, and I am indeed preparing to raise funds recently."

"But after all, we haven't officially raised funds yet, so our net worth is still not over 100 million!"

"Also, I won't give up my acting career just to start a business. My acting career has been very helpful in the process of starting a business, so I believe I can balance both aspects!"

At this time, Sheng Yunxuan answered the two questions that the paparazzi were most concerned about, and then stepped forward to enter the hotel.

However, these paparazzi at this time obviously would not stop while they were ahead, and still wanted to continue digging out some information from Sheng Yunxuan.

After all, the hottest topic in the entertainment industry right now is Sheng Yunxuan’s incident!

The paparazzi still blocked Sheng Yunxuan's way and refused to move, continuing to ask him questions.

Why do we often see news of celebrities beating up paparazzi these days? Isn't it because most paparazzi are just like that and have no clue...

"If Mr. Sheng is unable to balance being an actor and the company, and the investors ask you to give up your acting career, what will you do?"

"If you give up your acting career, will you feel sorry for your fans?"

"Mr. Sheng, can you tell us about your company's current financing progress?"

"Investors have valued Six Degrees Technology at over 100 million. This must be true!"

"..."

……

It's really noisy to have a group of paparazzi chattering in your ears.

Sheng Yunxuan walked forward with his head down, too lazy to pay attention to the probing question of "choosing a company or an acting career".

After all, he couldn't just say that he founded Six Degrees Technology just to make a killing, that short videos weren't going to have much of a future these days, and that film and television websites were too expensive, so he wasn't going to stick with it...

Having said that, how can we persuade those capital companies to invest?
Even if you plan to sell the company and run away at the right time, you still have to paint a good rosy picture for those investors!
However, Sheng Yunxuan is still willing to answer questions about financing.

"The financing went smoothly. Many investors have submitted letters of intent to invest. I am currently selecting suitable investors."

"As for the news that Six Degrees Technology's valuation has exceeded 100 million, there's still some discrepancy... Haha, according to the latest quotes from several investors, this valuation could triple or quadruple!"

Well, it’s true that many investors have taken the initiative to contact us.

But Liudu.com’s current valuation is about to triple or quadruple, which is pure bragging!
However, the reason why Sheng Yunxuan is willing to come out to attract attention now is that he wants to create crazy hype.

As long as various media outlets keep saying that Liudu.com is now worth 300-400 million, then the public will obviously believe that Liudu.com is worth 300-400 million, and investors will naturally be influenced...

And then again, is Liudu.com really not worth the price now?

……

In short, after wasting some time at the hotel entrance, Sheng Yunxuan was finally able to enter the party venue. His suit was a little wrinkled because he was stuck at the door.

However, Sheng Yunxuan didn't care too much, because the main purpose of this trip was completely achieved.

Even if the investors are not affected, from today onwards, even people who don’t go online will know the name of Liudu.com!
