"Next, let’s welcome the president and chairman of Black Swan Group in Shanghai, and chairman of the Black Swan Charity Foundation, Mr. Gu Bai, to unveil the company!"
Amidst enthusiastic applause, Gu Bai, witnessed by nearly a thousand people, slowly unveiled the red cloth covering the company name plaque, revealing a gilded name plaque before everyone’s eyes.
Black Swan Group, the five large characters, dazzled everyone’s eyes.
From this moment, Black Swan Group officially becomes one of the capital giants in Hua Country’s entertainment industry.
"Black Swan Capital was established on September 20, 2017, to today, December 1, it has been exactly 100 days. With the support of company employees and friendly partners, we have achieved rapid development and will start group expansion from today.
To this end, as the chairman of the group, I would like to thank all employees on behalf of all board members."
After speaking, Gu Bai led Mr. Shao, Xiao Qiang, and others in a slight bow to the audience below.
With the ceremony complete, Gu Bai spoke again.
"In the presence of partners and guests, I make the following commitment on behalf of the company."
After these words, everyone quieted down; commitments made in public are almost certain to be fulfilled and are a show of Black Swan Group’s strength to outsiders.
Not only peer companies, but a host of media outlets also held their breath, fearing they might miss any segment.
"2017 was the incubation year for Black Swan Group, this year the company gradually moved towards standardization, and 2018 will be the year Black Swan Group takes off.
In 2018, we will strive to expand our scale, with external investments not less than 50 billion, focusing not only on the entertainment industry but also involving high-end industries such as real estate, technology, and finance, with the ambition to become a benevolent enterprise benefiting the people."
After these words, those most shocked were companies in the same capital industry, 50 billion? Inevitably makes them feel Gu Bai is exaggerating. Gu Bai being able to pull out over 10 billion has already shocked them, and if he can come up with another 50 billion, then it’s like he’s throwing money to dominate the market.
As for those most excited, they are Black Swan Group’s employees and the media.
No matter if Gu Bai is exaggerating, employees knowing the company plans to expand, can’t help but feel excited.
As for the media, they wish Gu Bai would boast even more, not just about 50 billion, even 500 billion they can accept, wishing Gu Bai gets bigger with his boasting.
Gu Bai watched the reactions of those below the stage, feeling it quite normal, after all, an empty commitment naturally isn’t believed by others, but what he’s about to say next is truly underway and being prepared.
Pressing his palm down, signaling everyone to be quiet, Gu Bai spoke again: "Another commitment is already in preparation. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡~𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚~𝙣𝙚𝙩
We have already signed a corporate residency agreement with the Shanghai city government, and at the start of next year, we will kick off the company’s headquarters building project, with an initial investment of 4 billion and subsequent phased inputs, estimated total investment of 15 billion, aiming to create another landmark building in Shanghai."
As the words fell, on the other side, the secretary of the Shanghai mayor stood up and spoke to everyone: "Our Shanghai is a highly inclusive city, and Black Swan Group is a company with substantial strength. On behalf of Shanghai city government, I welcome them to reside in Shanghai and contribute to the development of this city."
Official endorsement!
This indicated that Gu Bai wasn’t speaking without basis.
A company whose market value just crosses 10 billion is planning to spend 15 billion on its headquarters building. If other companies did this, everyone would think they’re crazy.
Yet in Gu Bai’s case, it doesn’t seem abrupt.
Black Swan Group itself is a company Gu Bai built by throwing money.
But now, it makes everyone begin to wonder, just how much money does this young man in front of them have?
With this headquarters building project laid out now, no one thinks Gu Bai’s mention of a 50 billion investment in 2018 is an exaggeration anymore. All peers attending the Shanghai capital event exchanged glances, understanding the words in each other’s eyes.
