Chapter 81 Large-Scale Investment
Five months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Using his memories from his past life, Lin Yuan made large investments in Nvidia, AMD, Tesla, Apple, Microsoft, and ByteDance (TikTok launched in 2016).
Tencent's 5v5 battle mobile game is already in the closed beta stage and is ready to be launched at any time. Lin Yuan certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity.
Xia Yuan was sent back to Seoul early on to begin the acquisition plan for Big Hit. LM Investment now holds 52% of the shares, making it the largest shareholder.
Thanks to his behind-the-scenes maneuvering, Lee Soo-man of SM Entertainment has lost power and could be kicked out of the company at any time.
Lin Yuan spent over 30 billion yuan on these moves. Even though Hongsheng is a trillion-yuan empire, it took mortgaging a lot of land to come up with so much cash at once, all to prevent the company from running into problems.
It was only then that he realized that Hongsheng had been involved in the oil industry behind the scenes, a discovery that surprised him greatly.
In his view, these strategic resources have always been either controlled by the United States or by the government.
I never expected that my own family could get involved. It seems that we can't underestimate anyone.
Suddenly, an entertainment news article popped up on my phone:
IU's new drama "The Producers" premiered, and she held an offline fan meeting in Hwaseong on November 8th.
Lee Ji-eun is as energetic as ever, but it seems she's the second female lead in this drama, with Gong Hyo-jin as the female lead and Kim Soo-hyun as the male lead.
It seems like Kim Jisoo also has a role in it?
Lin Yuan glanced at the calendar; there were still three days left until the 8th.
He tapped his fingers lightly on the table, his phone lying beside him, the screen still showing the screen of Lee Ji-eun's press conference.
Time flies. In the past five months, he has not received any information from Lee Ji-eun. If it weren't for the fact that he could still see her announcements in the entertainment news, Lin Yuan would have thought that she had retired from the entertainment industry.
'Buzz~'
My phone vibrated.
An alarm clock sounded on the screen, reminding him to go home.
Since getting engaged, Lin Yuan set this alarm clock at his mother's suggestion.
"Pregnant women are most insecure, so no matter how busy you are, remember to make two phone calls every day, one in the morning and one at noon, and go home as soon as you get off work in the evening."
So every afternoon at 6 o'clock, he would get up and leave the company.
Everyone knew he was the second young master of the group, so naturally no one was foolish enough to stop him.
Moreover, over the past few months, Lin Yuan has used his memories from his previous life to help the company make a lot of money, and leaders at all levels are happy to do so.
Who wouldn't like a capable, good-natured, and trouble-free second-generation heir?
On the bus, Lin Yuan made a phone call home.
As Mihoko's belly grew bigger, she spent her days at home sunbathing, tending to her plants, and knitting two pairs of socks for her unborn child when she was bored.
Perhaps because of her child, she exudes a stronger maternal aura, making her appear gentle and considerate.
While knitting a scarf, she saw the caller ID on the screen, smiled, and answered the phone immediately.
"Honey, you're off work!"
"Yes, I'm on my way." Lin Yuan, wearing headphones, carefully drove the car, stopping as he passed a flower shop. He casually asked, "Is there anything you need to bring?"
Mieko thought for a moment, then said playfully, "I kind of want to eat cherries!"
"Okay, I'll be home in about half an hour. I'll hang up now."
"Okay, be careful on the road!"
Lin Yuan put away his phone, browsed around the flower shop, and finally chose two succulent plants.
I bought some cherries, as well as some sour candies, dried fruit, and so on, when I passed by the supermarket.
When Lin Yuan arrived home, a car with a Hai A license plate was parked in front of the door, and he smiled knowingly.
"I'm back!"
In the living room, Dad and Mom were talking to Mieko. When they heard his voice, all three of them looked over.
Mihoko immediately stepped forward, helped him take off his coat and hung it on the hanger, saying, "Honey, you've worked hard. Give me your things." She then reached out to pick them up.
Lin Yuan quickly shook his head, "The stuff is quite heavy, I can handle it."
He handed her the bag containing two pots of succulents, saying, "Here, I just passed by a flower shop and thought they looked pretty good. You should like them."
Mieko smiled and took it, peeking through the bag. Her eyes crinkled with delight. "Thank you, darling, I love it! Mwah~"
The parents on the sofa exchanged a glance and teased, "Oh, how sweet!" Then they nudged Lin Tian, "Look at you! When you were pursuing me, you called me 'Little Sweetie,' and now? You think you're so great now that you've got me?"
The old man sighed dejectedly and rolled his eyes at Lin Yuan with a 'friendly' look.
Lin Yuan helplessly shrugged and pursed his lips.
The family of four enjoyed a happy reunion.
.....
Seoul, Apartment 1302.
Lee Ji-eun pushed open the door and walked in, looking exhausted.
After changing her shoes, she leaned against the door, looking around the room.
It's been five months. I thought that not contacting him would help me forget him, but...
Ugh!
She patted her cheeks, trying to clear her head.
Woof woof~
At this moment, Qiqi ran over and kept circling around her.
A little while later, Baba also ran over, sat there quietly, and stuck out her tongue while laughing.
Lee Ji-eun squatted down and rubbed their heads, then glanced at the dog bowl in the corner, which was already empty.
"Wait, Mom will feed you."
She opened the cabinet door, filled two large bowls with dog food, and poured two bowls of water before sending the two little ones away.
No, it should be "medium", since five months have passed.
A moment later, the sound of a lock being opened came from inside, and Huang Lizhi entered carrying fruit.
Hearing the sound of the range hood and seeing the dogs happily munching on their food, all the fatigue of the day vanishes in an instant.
She jogged to the kitchen, put down the fruit, and then hugged Lee Ji-eun from behind, resting her chin on Lee Ji-eun's shoulder, "Unnie~"
Lee Ji-eun seems to have gotten used to it by now.
Ever since that man left, Huang Lizhi seems to have become a different person. Every day when he comes home, he clings to her, as if he's afraid of leaving her behind.
Lee Ji-eun kept moving her hands and said affectionately, "Go clean up the dog poop, then wash your hands and eat."
"Mmm~ Let me hug you for a little while, just a little while."
Tonight I'm making braised fish, Huang Lizhi's favorite, the same kind Lin Yuan makes.
Lee Ji-eun practiced a lot for this, and almost wore out all kinds of videos and recipes.
At the dinner table, Huang Lizhi wolfed down his food, with a lot of soup stuck to the corners of his mouth.
Lee Ji-eun handed her a tissue and tucked her bangs behind her ear, saying, "Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."
Hwang Ye-ji really liked this feeling, pouting, "Unnie's cooking is delicious, isn't it? Better than Oppa's..."
Upon hearing the name of this man, Lee Ji-eun's face immediately stiffened, and her hand hovered in mid-air.
Hwang Ye-ji realized he had said the wrong thing and immediately lowered his head, not daring to make a sound. He secretly observed Lee Ji-eun's expression, feeling remorseful.
She would message Lin Yuan almost every day and regularly report on Lee Ji-eun's condition. This was the reason why Lin Yuan felt at ease, simply because he had a little spy by his side.
