"Husband, why have you been so worried these days? Didn't you just cash out a large amount of money in the stock market? I see you are more anxious than before."
One day at the end of November, in the early morning, when Gu Kun woke up in the river view villa in Lujiazui, he saw Lin Ying nestled softly in his arms, very awake and looking at him carefully, as if she was afraid of waking him up.
.Seeing that he had indeed woken up with his eyelids fluttering, he hurriedly asked about his welfare with concern.
It’s another morning of full catharsis, and it feels good.
The corners of Gu Kun's mouth twitched, and his hands tightened to comfort him: "Really? Have you been observing me for a long time? I just had a little insomnia last night."
Lin Ying's expression became slightly sad: "Recently, it seems that the more money you have, the less happy you are and the more you think about it. Our business has always been stable and uncontested, so what's the rush? I'm tired.
Just walk slower and stay on Lanfang Island to farm."
Strictly speaking, "farming" is also a new term on the Internet. Lin Ying just learned it because she recently played a game "Age of Empires" released last year when she was taking care of Gu Kun.
Gu Kun doesn't like violent troops and quick attacks, but slowly upgrades his technology every time. Only in the Age of Empire does he send out high-level soldiers to bulldoze the entire map. Gu Kun does this not only when playing "Empire", but also when playing the old game "Civilization 2"
The same is true.
Over time, Lin Ying came to know that this routine was called "farming flow." In her opinion, her husband had nothing to rush and could just continue to farm slowly.
Gu Kun gently pushed the woman away, put on his bathrobe and walked to the window, poured a glass of gin, and sighed with a sense of nostalgia: "I now begin to understand the famous saying of a famous entrepreneur: If you have enough money, you will be sure."
The degree is no longer yours, it is entrusted to you by society to manage. You have to think about how to make this money and the people who live with it have a future every day, and troubles will come one after another...
Before I have 10 billion U.S. dollars, I really don’t have to be a relentless competitor with anyone. I can really just farm slowly and not compete with the world. If I miss a wave of wind, at worst, I will change the track and come back next time.
Yes, change your opponent.
However, after I decided to build the world's most upscale hotel, the most luxurious community where rich people live, and the world's tallest building, all of this ceased to exist. I had already forced myself on this fast lane. I wanted to continue to cultivate myself without making people jealous.
The fields are easier said than done.
Starting next year at the latest, I will compete with Dubai people in all aspects, from attracting high-end consumers to form shopping habits to attracting high-end celebrities to buy homes. I have to compete with Dubai people on every track, and we cannot ignore the traditional and old Monaco."
Lin Ying didn't quite understand, and listened quietly to Gu Kun's words without interrupting. It wasn't until Gu Kun looked out the window with a wine glass in his hand and was silent for more than ten seconds that she asked cautiously: "Then you don't know?"
What do you want to do?"
Gu Kun: "There are too many things that need to be done. I don't know which one to do first. I just want to be quiet. There are some things that my intuition tells me are very important. However, the span is a bit too big compared to what I am doing now. I am afraid that I will
The stall is too big and unprofessional.”
Lin Ying smiled: "What's the matter? Since you know what to do, you can do everything. I believe that my husband is the best and can learn everything."
Youth is the greatest capital.
When Gu Kun heard this, his heart moved slightly.
Lin Ying's words really gave him some encouragement.
At this point in the journey, as a reborn person, some of his past life experiences can no longer help.
When the business has developed to this stage, Gu Kun really wants to enter some new industries that are important to his overall layout of building Lanfang, but he has always been afraid to enter rashly out of worries about his lack of ability.
For example, after Lanfang Tower and Lanfang Seven-Star Hotel were planned, Gu Kun thought about getting involved in the luxury industry, because the luxury industry is important for bringing goods to tourists, leading shopping, helping commercial real estate projects attract investment, and increasing the depth of the country's tourism industry GDP.
Of great help.
But he had never worked in the luxury industry in his previous life. Even if he knew something about it, it was only as an outsider.
It's not like building resorts, commercial real estate and hotels. He has done these things in his previous life and has experience. Even though the business scale in his previous life was not large, he still has a detailed understanding of the trends of the entire industry and how to avoid pitfalls.
.
In addition to the luxury industry, there are several other deep-water areas that "I should have started planning when I got to this point in my life, but I didn't understand it at all in my previous life."
For example, the film and television studio that opened more than a year ago specializes in making "bodybuilding movies" for Asian muscular men. As well as the supporting high-end health management and body management studios, they all relied on Gu Kun's personal experience in name at the beginning.
The reputation and the number of friends in the circle have initially opened up the situation.
However, as Gu Kun's reputation waned and he lacked a team of professional management talents, those businesses did not develop sustainably. Gu Kun was in urgent need of reintegration and investment. Gu Kun never made a small movie or opened a high-end health management company in his previous life.
What? He has never even opened a gym and doesn't know the pitfalls.
The advantage of being a reborn person has already been fully exploited by Gu Kun, which is his biggest worry at present. The outcome of the Southeast Asian financial crisis has been changed. The major trends in the international financial market in the future and history may be completely changed because of this.
, after the harvest of the Internet bubble in 1999, any major benefits that Gu Kun might gain in the future by relying on the advantage of rebirth will no longer exist.
This is the main crisis in his current situation.
The education Gu Kun received in his life was only a bachelor's degree in shipbuilding and ocean engineering, which did little to improve his business abilities.
However, industries such as the luxury industry are still the shortcomings of all Chinese people. Even if Gu Kun doesn't know how to do it, he wants to find a few reliable Chinese confidants to work for him. He "specializes in the industry" and becomes the majority shareholder of the shop owner.
Neither is possible.
There is no Chinese in the world who has the right to speak and senior operating experience in the luxury industry.
After decades of growth, Huaxia Manufacturing has become a brand name around the world. Huaxia's goods are no longer known for "low quality and low price", but have turned to the level of "cheap, good quality and cost-effective".
But even so, the Chinese people still don't have a luxury brand with significant international influence.
On the contrary, as Chinese manufacturing became more popular, the quality of Chinese luxury goods became lower and more despicable. So in the end, those women who wanted to buy luxury goods in different ways began to take pride in poor quality, just to toss "poor quality"
"The ones that are genuine are genuine, and those with good quality are all fakes." This kind of difference is used to highlight one's social status.
The bags whose foreskin cracks and fades are "Hello" Mas Prada, the shoes whose soles wear out when walking are Chanel, and the ones that are durable are all bitches used by low-class people... All kinds of "poverty limits your imagination"
"There are endless jokes.
In the final analysis, luxury goods are purely used to classify people into different grades and do not require use value. The better the use value of a nation's manufacturing industry, the lower the scarcity and pretentiousness of luxury goods. This is
Unsolvable.
I don’t know much about it, and I spent a lot of money to find people who can’t find someone of my own kind. If I really want to do it, I have to be the invisible boss behind the scenes, and spend a lot of money to hire a group of white people who have the right to define international standards to do things for him.
However, Lin Ying's comfort helped Gu Kun regain some confidence.
Isn’t it because there is no rebirth experience to draw on? I already have such good resources, so why can’t I find a way out without cheating?
I am still young and can still learn.
The most important thing is to have confidence in your heart, know how to be in awe, and know how to be alert to the unknown.
"Thank you, I feel much better. You are really my good wife." Gu Kun kissed Lin Ying deeply in reward, and then decided to take the crucial step.
Anyway, there is still a one-year window period for spending money on infrastructure facilities. During this year, the money taken out of the stock market will be idle, so let’s first deploy some industries that we were afraid to enter before.
Anyway, he won't lose much money if he loses, he can afford it.
…
It was also Gu Kun's good fortune. After he made up his mind, within a few days, some of his subordinates and friends came to see him with something to do.
One day in early December, Liang Jinsong, who was in Xiangjiang and had not seen Gu Kun for two or three months, received a routine phone call announcing the good news. He said that the financial stocks and other miscellaneous stocks in the Hong Kong stock market had been sold out.
It’s almost done, and I have completed “completely paying off the funds I borrowed to buy stocks.”
This is not unexpected. It has been planned for a long time. However, the original plan was to postpone it until the end of the year, but now it is more than half a month ahead of schedule.
In addition to announcing the good news, Liang Jinsong also asked Gu Kun for instructions as usual, asking whether he was interested in going to Xiangjiang, or whether he needed to fly to Shanghai to report the details in person.
After answering the phone, Gu Kun's heart was moved and he had the idea to ask: "Those Hong Kong financial institutions that we held stocks in the past, especially investment banks, how do they plan their overseas investments? Have they invested in high-end health management, special film and television?
Industry, or luxury brand?”
Liang Jinsong didn't know what Gu Kun was going to do. He thought for a moment before answering truthfully: "There is definitely some. As long as it is a high-quality asset, it is normal for investment banks to hold a certain amount of stocks. Xiangjiang is also a shopping paradise. But even if there is
, it must be below 15%. I haven’t heard of any international first-tier brands being listed by Xiangjiang Investment Bank. They probably don’t have this ambition and are just free riding to make some quick money.”
Gu Kun: "I understand, let's do this. Let me take a trip to see if there are any chips that can be held and exchanged for a long time. If possible, instead of selling out all the financial stocks, I can replace some of them.
Reduce the pressure to lighten your position.”
This may be a starting point for Gu Kun to transform and expand his career scope. It is always more convenient to find acquaintances than strangers.

ps: The above is already 3,000 words long. I am guilty. I know this is a transitional chapter and the map needs to be changed, so the writing is not very good.
In fact, I originally thought of writing it more dramatically, with more surprises, and letting the protagonist rely on luck to enter a new industry through bad luck, making him appear to be less omniscient and omnipotent. And based on the current market situation at the starting point, luck flow is incompetent.
The protagonist also attracts more subscriptions and feels more involved.
But after struggling again and again, I gave up, deleted thousands of words, and re-wrote a few words. I couldn't bear to write an ignorant protagonist, which was a bit awkward.
This attempt to transform the writing style failed.
