"Zhang Shouji? He looks like he regards money as dirt. It's really hard to do anything."
Gao Bin found a toothpick to pick his teeth and said casually:
"Zhang Shouji has a son who is not very smart and can easily take the bait if provoked."
Li Zicheng nodded:
"If that's the case, you should be able to use it."
"Well, what do you think about Ding Qing?"
Gao Bin suddenly mentioned Ding Qing, and Li Zicheng's emotions immediately became complicated:
"He didn't tell me, if possible, I really don't want to betray him!"
"Haha, if you don't do it for yourself, heaven and earth will destroy you!"
"You want to attack Ding Qing?"
Gao Bin shrugged:
"If he had been a man who knew current affairs, he might have survived."
Li Zicheng understood, and decided to persuade Ding Qing at the critical moment.
He finally understood that even the people in Seoul's underground world couldn't beat Gao Bin.
...
Two days later, Gao Bin saw on the news that an accident occurred during parachute training for a certain unit of the Air Force. The parachute bag malfunctioned and did not open, directly leading to the death of a soldier.
A deputy director of the Air Force Logistics Department spoke on behalf of the department, saying that relevant departments will launch a comprehensive investigation into some military products to ensure that similar things will not happen again...
Gao Bin turned off the TV when he saw this. Han Zhongwu was quite smart, and he could take this opportunity to extort money from the supplier, killing two birds with one stone.
Put down the remote control and call Han Zhongwu.
"President!"
"Haha, Colonel Han is very photogenic, but why is it mosaic?"
"Haha, show your ugliness, show your ugliness, this is also what the army needs."
"Well, things were done well. That person didn't leave any evidence, right?"
"It's impossible. When we talked to him, it was a temporary situation. The other party couldn't have been prepared!"
"Well, we don't need any written evidence. Let's go over and do a thorough investigation."
"I understand, President, please rest assured!"
"Also, Hyo-joo's account has been opened. Come and get it back when you have time. She is young, so she still has to give so much money to her parents."
Han Zhongwu understood what Gao Bin meant. Although the account was opened in the name of Han Xiaozhu, the right to use the account was still in the hands of his father.
"Thank you, President. I'll ask Hyo-joo to treat you to dinner later."
"Well, let's talk about it again, that's it!"
At this time, he was in Li Fuzhen's office. He had just spoken to Han Zhongwu in front of Li Fuzhen, and the other party heard the conversation between the two without reservation.
With his clever brain, Li Fuzhen has already figured out an inseparable conclusion.
Covering his forehead and saying:
"Don't tell me, you did this?"
Gao Bin smiled, came behind Li Fuzhen, bent down and kissed her on the top of her head:
"It's better that you don't know!"
"If you don't want me to know, don't call me in front of me!" Li Fuzhen was speechless, who are these people!
"Don't I trust you?"
"You let me say everything inside and outside the co-author?" Li Fuzhen was almost pissed to death.
Although the two broke through the ambiguous barrier and no longer restricted physical contact, Li Fuzhen was still annoyed by Gao Bin.
There's something magical about this guy that always makes people mad.
"Haha, let me tell you something, I sponsored the Busan Film Festival."
Gao Bin sat on the table, next to Li Fuzhen, face to face.
"Why do you suddenly want to sponsor the film festival?"
"This can be regarded as paving the way for GB Film and Television. Taking this opportunity, GB Film and Television can establish the right to speak on Chungwu Road."
"How much?"
"10 million US dollars!"
"Not bad!"
Li Fuzhen tilted his head:
"But from what I know about you, it doesn't seem like you would do such a thing."
"Haha, I can't help it, they gave me too much."
"Okay, are you free later? Come with me out?"
"Where to go?"
"Meeting a friend from abroad."
Gao Bin decisively refused:
"I don't know you, so I won't go."
"Beautiful beauty!"
"I won't go there, I'm a single-minded person!"
"Bah, are you still single-minded?" Li Fuzhen was angered by Gao Bin's shamelessness again.
But women are a very strange species. Sometimes the better you treat her, the less she feels it. Instead, she can’t forget the men who hurt them, which is hard to understand!
......
Time is like water, years are like shuttle, two years have passed by in a hurry~
In the past two years, the power structure of Seoul, or the entire country, has undergone considerable changes.
Taking the entertainment industry as an example, the music industry is still dominated by the three heroes of S~M, JYP and YG.
In the film and television industry, countless new upstarts have emerged, but the established companies are still invincible, creating a situation of indiscriminate killing!
However, the five major film companies, N·E·W, Showbox, Lexus, CJ, and GB, have a strong monopoly on nearly 85% or even 90% of the market share in the Chinese film industry.
These five film companies are all backed by large consortiums, and none of them are from the private sector.
Moreover, CJ and GB are not only active in the film industry, they are also recognized as the two strongest companies in the Korean entertainment industry.
GB Entertainment Group, which completed its reorganization a year ago, is now able to compete with CJ Entertainment.
Its six major business divisions have become legendary.
Film Division, Television Division, Music Division, Variety Show Division, Theater Division, Artist Management Division.
The six major business divisions have almost opened up the entire industry chain of the entertainment industry. The most important thing is that each business division can produce outstanding results and will never hold the company back.
Let’s not talk about the two performance leaders of film and television. Let’s talk about the music division.
In 2008, Gao Bin wanted to take advantage of SNSD's Black Sea opportunity to snatch them over.
Originally, the two parties were almost done talking. Unexpectedly, the person named Jin was unwilling to give up and actually found a backer behind his back.
S~M’s backers are not easy to mess with. The family that once ascended the throne is so skinny that a camel is bigger than a horse.
At that time, Gao Bin was making money crazily in the financial market. He had no time to care about such trivial matters, and he did not want to confront the other party head-on, so Park Mincan gave up.
But I still couldn't give it up afterwards. I definitely wanted to enter the music industry. Without Girls' Generation, I would have to find someone else.
This era happens to be the heyday of girl groups in the pop music world, and there is really no shortage of talent.
No, with a big stick and sweetened dates, they directly acquired T-ara’s agency, driving away all the blood-sucking management, leaving only T-ara and the company’s trainee assets. p>
Without the control of SB's boss, T-ara finally showed the strength worthy of the name and had a fierce battle with SNSD.
As long as both companies release albums at the same time, they will inevitably dominate the charts alternately!
However, having only one girl group is not enough to establish the company's development in the music industry. The second girl group is on the way and is expected to debut by the end of this year.
When the time comes, T-ara and SNSD will compete in the top arena, and this second girl group will take advantage of the chaos to harvest the second-tier market, and GB will have to make all the girl group’s money.
By the way, it is worth mentioning that the current head of the music business department is an artist named Liu Xiyeol, who was recommended by Yoo Jae-seok.
The original minister, Kim Jong-kook, was not that material, and he himself had no intention of focusing on company management.
Simply, give him the identity of a music director, and mainly perform public activities as an artist.
However, Yoo Kye-yeol has good abilities, has a wide network of contacts in the industry, and has enough status in the music industry to be able to write lyrics and music. Since becoming the minister, he has created two popular songs for T-ara. Park Mincan is very satisfied with him.
Let’s not say more about the Variety Show Division. “Infinite Challenge” is still the leader in the industry and a well-deserved overlord.
However, last year's "Two Days and One Night" produced by KBS posed a certain challenge to the dominance of "Infinite Challenge".
As the director of the variety show business department, Kim Tae-ho must consider issues from the company's perspective and cannot just care about the gains and losses of one show.
Now Infinite Challenge occupies the prime time slot on Friday, and Two Days and One Night dominates the screen on Saturday, making the weekend a total of three days. If the company still wants to maintain its position in the variety show industry, it must win the Sunday slot.
So through various connections, he hired a director named Zhao from SBS, and with him was a new variety show "RM"!
After half a year of preparation, it was launched in July this year.
Although it is still an outdoor variety show, the new running mode and the novel brand-breaking battle make the audience unable to stop.
From the initial 12% ratings, it took less than two months to reach 25%. It has continued to this day and the ratings are quite stable!
With two ace variety shows in hand, plus two indoor variety shows that are still outstanding on weekdays, GB Entertainment Variety Division has become the paradise of comedy entertainment. All comedians have participated in the productions of GB Variety Division
Proud of the program.
By the way, as the core MC of the two shows, Yoo Jae Suk naturally signed a contract with GB Entertainment.
Firstly, it’s because of GB Entertainment’s more generous treatment and excellent program production capabilities;
Secondly, it was because GB Entertainment helped him recover back wages from his previous agency;
Coupled with the presence of friends such as Kim Jong Kook and Yoo Hee Yeol, Yoo Jae Suk finally fell into the arms of GB Entertainment and signed a 10-year contract in one fell swoop!
In addition to Yoo Jae Suk and Kim Jong Kook, GB Entertainment's artists also include Cha Tae Hyun, Lee Bo Young, Son Yeon Jin, Han Hyo Joo and many other first-line stars in the industry.
Someone in the industry once joked, how to define the standard of a first-line celebrity? Just see if GB Entertainment is willing to sign you!
Needless to say about the theater business department, during the 2008 financial crisis, all industries were losing money, and only Gao Bin was making money.
If he didn’t buy the bottom at this time, he would be tempted to slap himself.
Using only a small part of his profits, he took over many small theater chains in the country at that time and renovated and integrated them.
Coupled with the subsequent establishments one after another, GB Cinemas now ranks among the top two in terms of number of theaters and screens.
Moreover, it is not far from the number one CGV theater chain owned by CJ.
At this point, GB Entertainment has completely opened up the entertainment industry chain. Even without going public, it has already been competing with CJ. If it goes public, it is very likely that it will instantly leave CJ behind and become the only one in the industry. Struggles between the two sides occurred in various aspects.
For example, in terms of influence within the industry, CJ indirectly controls the Baeksang Arts Awards, while GB can exert influence on the Daejong Awards.
Not only that, GB became the sole main sponsor of the Busan Film Festival two years ago.
The only gap between the two parties now is in the TV station. CJ is the parent company of M TV station, and although GB Entertainment has close cooperation with SBS, it is not a controlling relationship after all.
But recently, Park Mincan has been busy with these things. If it works well, GB Entertainment will also have its own cable TV station.
At that point, the industry chain will be truly closed and indestructible!
However, despite the fact that GB Entertainment is about to reach the top of the industry, within the entire group, GB Entertainment is just a business branch.
Take GB Lifestyle Group as an example, its revenue capacity is twice that of GB Entertainment!
The restructured GB Lifestyle Group includes chain hotels, nightclubs, Chinese restaurants, Western restaurants, fast food restaurants, convenience stores, and large warehouse supermarkets, with a total of thousands of stores and industries all over the country!
Compared with the lifestyle group, the entertainment group pales into insignificance!
Similarly, GB Life has no plans to go public. Even if the financial circles in Bangkok begged grandpa and grandma to send them money, they didn't even know which way the door of Gao Bin's office opened.
It’s not that Gao Bin is arrogant, but he is really not short of money!
The capital chain of the entire GB Group is very healthy, with a debt ratio of only 18%. Can you believe it?
Gao Bin couldn't believe it when he saw the financial report, but there was nothing he could do about it. This was real. Not convinced? Hold on!
Do you think that GB Life is very profitable, but its director Cui Hengyou still has to walk with his head held high in the group?
Sorry, in front of GB Real Estate, the two major entertainment and lifestyle groups combined are not enough!
GB Real Estate Group has established three subsidiaries, namely GB Commercial Plaza; GB Properties, and GB Property.
As the name suggests, the Commercial Plaza has six plazas in total: one has opened, two are under construction, and three are planned to be built.
GB Property is mainly responsible for the development of residential real estate, while Property Management is responsible for the subsequent management of commercial plazas and residential real estate. The division of labor is clear, and no one can take credit from others.
Since GB Real Estate has been cooperating with wealthy plutocrats like Li Fuzhen and Lin Shiling over the years, it can be said that everything goes smoothly and money is definitely made. The question is how much money is made.
Let's put it this way, ever since she started cooperating with Gao Bin, Lin Shiling has become tougher when speaking at home.
She does not rely on her parents or her husband, but relies on the money she earns on her own, and it is a pleasure to spend it!
Do you think GB Real Estate is the most profitable subsidiary of the entire group?
Wrong!
The most profitable one is a brand-new subsidiary, GB Financial, which was established two years ago and is not well-known in the outside world but is well-known in the industry.
GB Finance includes three subsidiary companies: GB Bank, GB Fund, and GB Venture Capital.
I won’t go into details about banks and funds, mainly venture capital. Since its establishment, it has aimed at the emerging Internet industry and poured money into it.
The amount of money they have spent on the Internet industry in the past two years has left many plutocrats stunned.
I don’t know why Gao Bin is so crazy that he is so optimistic about the development of the Internet. It’s completely like a stud!
Gao Bin doesn't care what the outside world thinks. He is now equivalent to an open-book exam. If he still can't vote accurately with the answers in hand, he might as well jump into the Han River to feed the fish.
In the future, several of the most famous Internet companies in the country will all make heavy investments in the investment map of GB Venture Capital!
Gao Bin has been waiting for a few years to paint the picture of the Internet tycoons waving banknotes. When the time comes, he will sell it and he will be named Buffett!
Not only the Internet, but also the daily chemical industry, Gao Bin also invested a lot of money, but it was overshadowed by the limelight of the Internet, and most people didn't notice it.
The entire GB Group, in addition to the four cash cows of GB Finance, GB Real Estate, GB Lifestyle, and GB Entertainment, other fragmented industries, including GB Tourism, GB Security, GB Logistics, etc., are also at very good profits.
Status.
Relying on GB Group, this year, Gao Bin appeared in the eyes of the people of the country as a top rich man for the first time.
His personal assets are as high as US$700 million. At the age of 36, he ranks as the 27th richest person in the country.
Of course, everyone knows how important this list is. GB Finance alone has an asset value of more than US$700 million!
This is also because GB Group is not listed and is absolutely controlled by Gao Bin. Institutions can only rely on valuation to calculate Gao Bin's net worth.
No matter what, in the hearts of Chinese people, US$700 million is already an unimaginable figure.
If converted into Korean won, the day when trillions are used as units should not be far away.
By the way, shortly after the list was released, a media conducted a survey.
Among the men women under 30 most want to marry, Gao Bin topped the list with 71% of the votes.
The second and third ones are both famous actors, but in front of Gao Bin, their faces are really not as attractive as their wallets.
It's just a pity that Gao Bin is already married. His wife is very beautiful and has a great temperament. Even if she gives birth to a child, her charm will not be affected at all. The poor nympho girls can only drool in daydreams. ...
"Hahaha, our Oppa turned out to be the dream lover of countless girls. I really made a profit!"
At this time, in the mansion on the mountain in Itaewon, Yongsan, Kim So Hee and Gao Bin were lying by the swimming pool and sunbathing.
A cute little girl with twin ponytails is playing with a Great Pyrenees dog next to her while grabbing toys.
Gao Bin took a sip of orange juice and said helplessly:
"Aren't you jealous?"
"Why should I be jealous? It proves that my Oppa is attractive. This is a good thing."
Kim So Hee swayed her white calves and kept teasing Gao Bin's eyes.
She did it on purpose. After so many years of married life, she had already known Gao Bin's preferences.
Women, they say they don’t care or are jealous, but their bodies have honestly revealed something.
If my daughter hadn't been by her side, this woman would have been executed on the spot.
Today is Sunday. Gao Bin has given up all his work and spends warm family time with his family. Apart from his family, there is no one outside the mansion covering an area of more than 3,000 square meters.
Both the nanny and the housekeeper were sent back to rest by Gao Bin during the holidays. This is a habit that their family has maintained for two years.
The manor is surrounded by tall trees and walls, backed by mountain peaks, and facing the Han River. Even if you do something in the yard, you are not afraid of being seen.
I gave my wife a blank look and waved to my daughter who was not far away:
"Eunxi, come to daddy!"
I don’t know if she inherited the excellent genes of her parents, but little Enxi’s language talent is very good. At the age of 2, she can already talk to her parents in two languages.
Although sometimes I get confused and don’t know what I’m talking about, but after all, I’m still young, so I look very cute.
"Papa!" Enxi ran over staggeringly on the lawn.
Gao Bin felt a black line on his forehead when he heard the pronunciation. It was definitely Jin Suxi who deliberately caused trouble. Even though Chinese is already very standard, he deliberately taught his children Chinese with an accent.
