After the sites for the Hope Elementary and Middle Schools in the six designated locations in Xuyong County were confirmed, five construction companies were contracted to build the six schools. According to the requirements, all the construction must be completed before 2018.
And now it is December 1st, which means the six schools must be completed and put to use within a month, just in time for the students to move into the new schools before the winter vacation.
Except for Zhuang Kexin and some staff from the foundation who stayed in Xuyong County to supervise the construction, Gu Bai has already boarded the plane with Yi Jiahui to return to Shanghai.
Hu Shang Center Building.
With Gu Bai’s continuous investments and the ongoing development of Black Swan Capital, the Black Swan Group has become the flagship enterprise of the Hu Shang Center Building. Today is the founding ceremony of the Black Swan Group, and all companies involved in the capital industry in Shanghai have been invited to witness the event; moreover, many large media outlets from the entertainment industry have come uninvited to cover the event.
After all, the current focus of Black Swan Group’s investments is still in the entertainment industry. Not long ago, they co-invested 10 billion with Yao Lai Group to create a new cinema brand, which was already big news. These media outlets are eager to dig out more big news at the founding ceremony of the Black Swan Group.
Black Swan Group owns five major subsidiaries.
They are Black Swan Entertainment.
Black Swan Interactive Entertainment.
Black Swan Film and Television.
Black Swan Artist Agency.
And the jointly established Black Swan Cinema Line Company.
Because Yao Lai Group didn’t want its Yao Lai Film and Television Cinema Line to be taken over completely by Gu Bai, they finally agreed that Gu Bai would invest 7 billion, holding 65% of the shares, while Yao Lai Group would invest 3 billion, holding 35% of the shares. Gu Bai gave up an additional 5% of the shares, with the only condition being that the company must be affiliated with Black Swan Group.
Qi Jianhong readily agreed to this.
Yao Lai Group already had a cinema line company under its wing, and Gu Bai giving up this 5% shares represented a tangible value of 500 million; there was no reason to disagree.
The hall, which could accommodate a thousand people, was now fully occupied.
All key employees and senior management of the five subsidiaries were present, especially the invited streamers under Black Swan Interactive Entertainment. Every one of them was beaming with joy, dressed formally for the occasion. Since they were internal employees, no one stopped them from interacting via live streams.
At this time, due to Gu Bai’s guidance, Lu Wei had significantly transformed his streaming style, moving towards a positive direction. Without the "cheating" incidents of the previous life, he remains a top streamer on Douyu, being the number one streamer of Black Swan Interactive Entertainment as well.
"Brothers in the livestream chat always brag about who the biggest Divine Rich is on Douyu. Today, I’ll let you meet my boss, the most incredible Divine Rich on Douyu!"
Lu Wei was dressed in a black suit, wearing a small badge on his chest displaying the name of Black Swan Interactive Entertainment, with the black swan logo prominently above the company name.
"Is there anyone near the Central Mansion? Take this opportunity to solo-kill Choukai. I can’t stand his egotistical attitude anymore!"
"I’ve put up with him for a long time!"
"Let’s be honest, even though Choukai seems a bit full of himself, we can’t deny he has the capital. I just checked, President Gu’s public net worth has surpassed 15 billion. Once the Forbes list is out, he’ll surely be the youngest listed mogul in Hua Country. If I had such backing, I’d be even more arrogant than Choukai!"
"Are my eyes deceiving me? Why do I find Choukai quite handsome in that outfit???"
Seeing the last comment on the screen, Lu Wei grinned widely.
"This brother has a good eye, you definitely deserve a moderator status!"
Apart from Lu Wei, top streamers like PDD, Zhou Shuyi, Sao Nian, and Zou Erke under Black Swan Interactive Entertainment were all unable to hide their cheer.
With such backing, they could be unstoppable in the streaming industry, and even the platform had to show them respect.
Even though the entire conference hall was nearly full, guests were still arriving continuously from outside.
The public relations department members were sweating profusely, running back and forth, inviting important guests to take their seats.
All important guests in the front rows were seated, including the decision-makers from Shanghai’s capital industry, such as Ping An International, Noah Wealth, Hexing Wealth, and others, who were observing the event from the first row.
Principal Wang, Qin Fen, and Li Zhun Tian Shu Zhao Weiwei were seated on the other side.
Li Zhun: "I really didn’t expect, knowing Old Gu for just over three months, he suddenly becomes the Chairman of a billion-dollar group, already on par with my old man." Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚•𝙣𝙚𝙩
Li Zhun’s tone was full of emotion.
As a director of the Wanda Group, Principal Wang had seen many such occasions, so his tone was a bit more reserved, but he couldn’t help but feel some admiration: "If you could splash over a hundred billion in over two months, you could be like him too."
The valuation of Xingnai Media exceeded 600 million, which had already made him extremely happy. Over a hundred billion wasn’t something he even dared to dream about. Not to mention him, even his father, the chairman of Nanshan Real Estate, couldn’t fork out such an amount.
Besides the bigwigs in the capital circle, many prominent figures in the entertainment industry also came to support the event.
The chairman of Huayi, Wang Zhongjun, brought along senior executives and several well-known artists. As a brother company to Yao Lai Group, Huayi accompanying Qi Jianhong to support Gu Bai wasn’t surprising.
