Becoming a Movie Star, System Only Finished Loading After Ten Years Chapter 155 - 152: No More Pretending, Time to Reveal the Tr

Not long after Qi Hao returned from Shen City, he found an opportunity to reveal his identity as a shareholder of Penguin.

Penguin released its 2009 financial report, showing that the company’s total annual revenue last year was 7.1545 billion RMB, which is an 87.2% increase compared to the sa period last year; basic earnings per share were 1.552 RMB, while diluted earnings per share were 1.514 RMB.

The board of directors recomnded a dividend of 0.25 Hong Kong Dollars per share, and to celebrate the company’s tenth anniversary, an additional special dividend of 0.10 Hong Kong Dollars per share was distributed.

This ans that Qi Hao’s every share of Penguin stock will receive a dividend of 0.35 Hong Kong Dollars.

Qi Hao currently holds just over 6.54 million shares of Penguin.

He didn’t spend last year’s dividends but reinvested them in buying more Penguin shares.

This year, the dividends from the 6.54 million shares amount to 2.289 million Hong Kong Dollars.

Qi Hao, following his previous strategy, bought another batch of stocks, nearly reaching 6.6 million shares.

The current Penguin stock price is about 50 Hong Kong Dollars.

That’s about 290 million RMB, much more extravagant than many so-called big shots.

Qi Hao decided not to disclose this matter from the mainland.

Such an action would leave too many traces.

Initially, so Hong Kong dia reported that mainland celebrity Qi Hao profited 2.3 million Hong Kong Dollars from this year’s March dividend of Penguin Holdings.

This news didn’t cause much stir over in Xiangjiang.

People over there know Qi Hao is popular in the mainland, but the proud people of Xiangjiang don’t pay much attention to the so-called four young talents of the mainland.

As for the Golden Rooster Best Actor...

They only know about the Golden Statue and Golden Horse.

However, news spreads particularly fast, and a bunch of dia, like sharks craving at, just copied and spread it everywhere.

The articles from the Hong Kong dia were soon transported to the mainland dia.

These are usually third-rate dia, who don’t care about the truth as long as it’s sensational enough.

However, first-rate and second-rate dia, if they want to reprint or continue to follow up, can’t be so frivolous, so their interview calls reached Qi Hao’s studio.

Initially, it was thought that Qi Hao’s studio would directly clarify.

Generally, few celebrities speculate in stocks, after all, stars like Qi Hao, if they work diligently, their annual inco usually outperforms the stock market.

Therefore, mainland dia believed that the Hong Kong dia were talking nonsense.

They are best at talking nonsense.

However, this ti, Qi Hao’s studio didn’t outright deny it, but ambiguously stated:

Qi Hao, apart from his acting career, has broad interests and pays attention to developnts in various fields. Penguin, as a well-performing internet company, is very worthy of investnt.

However, investnt is a personal matter, so it is inconvenient to disclose much.

Admitted!

No more pretending, cards on the table.

It was only then that dostic dia realized that Qi Hao really owns Penguin stocks.

Stocks worth 300 million!

When did Qi Hao beco so wealthy?

So dia, in their extensive coverage, didn’t forget that Qi Hao still owns 3.71 million shares of Mrs. Hua’s stock.

Mrs. Hua has already submitted a listing application.

According to public information, the issuance price of Mrs. Hua’s stock is set at 28.58 RMB.

If calculated at this price, Qi Hao’s stocks in Mrs. Hua are also worth over a hundred million.

In that case, Qi Hao has 400 million worth of stocks just in stocks.

Another point worth noting is that when the dia asked whether Qi Hao owns stocks in other companies, Qi Hao’s studio said it would be inconvenient to disclose.

What does this an?

There surely must be!

But anyhow, Qi Hao, holding stocks worth 400 million, has beco the focus in the entertainnt industry.

The dia reported overwhelmingly, and netizens were excited for Qi Hao.

Under the Moon on the Ancient Bridge: Really or not, Qi Hao has so much money, no wonder he doesn’t charge for fan etings and even gifts twenty eggs each.

Chu Rong: I took twenty eggs last ti, and I was worried for Qi Hao, afraid he’d go broke giving away so many eggs. Now I know it was a needless worry.

Regretful Monkey Seeker: Assuming each egg costs 0.5 RMB, if Qi Hao sold his stocks, he could have 800 million eggs.

Loneso for Life: Qi Hao isn’t married yet; what kind of partner is he looking for? I can introduce soone.

Nanguo Chushi: Brother Qi Hao, don’t set constraints too tightly on age.

Liang Haoran: Brother Qi Hao, when looking for a partner, can you be flexible with gender?

Mind Wandering Beyond: I recall Fan Xuexue’s annual inco was revealed to be 19.5 million last year. After taxes, who knows how much is left. Really can’t compare it to Qi Hao.

Maiy: Even Zhang Ziyi only made 55 million.

Cilantro and Dog Food: Haha, what tax, you really think celebrities honestly pay their taxes?

Left-Eyed Demon Dragon: Hey, don’t slander, our Fan Xiaopang is a good kid who honestly pays taxes.

Horse as Lu Bu: Exactly, manage your Qi Hao, I bet he hardly pays taxes, otherwise, where’d he get so much money to buy stocks?

Heavenly Clouds and Rain: Suggest checking Qi Hao.

A Young Man of Righteousness: Qi Hao, I admit I was wrong about you before, now I’ve decided to beco your fan again, when will you give away a rcedes Benz?

Fallen into the Past: With this wealth, Qi Hao might beco the Tang Monk’s Flesh of the entertainnt circle, female celebrities might tear him apart.

Slanting Sun Over Distant Hills: Another day being envious of Little Seven, do you understand what I’m saying?

Qinglingzi said: Envious of Qi Hao 1.

Suggested Alternative Na: I watched yesterday’s Eastern Wind and Cloud Chart. Qi Hao, a billionaire, was so sincere in his acceptance speech for the newcor award. This guy has been popular for years for a reason.

Zheng Da Jue Fan: Sun Nan hasn’t had a decent song in a while, I’m not satisfied with him winning Best Singer, our Qi Hao is more deserving (this line’s fifty-cent comnts removed).

Shi Sanjie: Do you rember, Qi Hao was the image ambassador for Penguin’s gala, I wondered how Qi Hao got that title, turns out he’s a shareholder.

Flying Black Kill: To those who used to say Qi Hao climbed to the top by associating with bigwigs, let Nanshan Court ask how he associated as a Penguin shareholder.

After this news was exposed, the impact on Qi Hao was mostly positive.

As for being investigated for tax, the last thing Hao is afraid of is a tax audit.

His stocks are valuable because he bought them early. If soone digs into this, they’ll only admire his exceptional investnt foresight.

Actually, Hao also has great admiration for our Tongzi.

You can see it from the songs, scripts, and taphysical tools he rewards people with; Tongzi is truly impressive.

He doesn’t give out garbage!

Anything he gives is usually sothing good.

At the very least, in the short term, the stocks he’s given so far have shown good montum.

Especially Penguin, Maotai, and Apple.

When people in the company ask him what to invest in, he recomnds these three stocks.

The company’s movies are not really encouraged for employee investnt at the mont.

Because the path hasn’t quite been paved.

Not long after Hao returned from Shen City, he went to Tongliao with so celebrities for a tree-planting event.

Participants included Zhou Xun, Gao Yuanyuan, Li Xiaoran, and Hao.

Later, An Feng heard about it and joined in too.

This ti, Zhou Xun tead up with Ctrip to advocate for a low-carbon lifestyle, buying 238 trees to offset the carbon emissions from her flights throughout 2008.

Getting Hao and others to lead the activity was mainly because Zhou Xun was the ambassador for the "Subtraction Life" green charity initiative and was also nad the 2008 Green China Focus of the Year.

Although Hao feels many of her activities are just for the idle-minded.

Like alternating odd and even license plate restrictions, or the two-hour Earth Hour in Asia.

But since everyone is friends, supporting each other’s activities and backing each other up is quite common.

Besides, planting trees indeed has positive significance. It can reduce a bit of the capital’s smog, so Hao agreed to participate.

Environntal protection matters don’t really relate to ordinary people much.

After all, many people might never have flown or owned a car in their entire lives, so carbon emissions an nothing to them.

The ones who should really learn about environntal protection are those who fly planes and drive cars.

Hao travels tens of thousands of kiloters every year, with many air miles, so he bought 666 small saplings.

The others also bought saplings according to their travel miles.

Of course, it’s impossible for them to plant these saplings themselves. Hundreds of saplings, even just digging holes, would be exhausting.

The main thing is to pay locals to plant trees.

It offers locals a chance to earn so extra money.

They could sneak out to work for half a day and get quite a bit of extra cash.

Hao and the others just needed to plant a few as a gesture.

"Are you two going to shoot a movie together?"

Zhou Xun is holding a tree while Hao fills the soil with a shovel, and An Feng waters the saplings with a hose.

"Yes!" Hao didn’t have much to hide.

The script for "First Love, This Little Thing" is completed, and they’re currently casting. Filming will officially start mid-next month.

"Do you need for a cao?" Zhou Xun asked.

"No, no." Hao shook his head repeatedly. Last ti, they had Zhou Xun sell pirated DVDs and steal phones in "Lost on Journey"; it would be unfair to trouble her again.

More importantly, this film is about high school freshn.

Mr. Zhou is quite up there in age, not suitable to play a high school student.

Sa goes for Gao Yuanyuan and Li Xiaoran.

When Gao Yuanyuan first debuted, she was synonymous with a high school student’s purity, but now she’s fully blossod.

As for Li Xiaoran, a high school student developing into her figure might feel quite self-conscious.

"If you ever need help, don’t hesitate to ask. We’re all brothers here." Zhou Xun paused and asked, "How much did you earn from the Penguin stocks?"

Alright, in the current situation, it would be fake not to be curious about Hao’s stocks.

"I bought them quite early, made over 200 million or so."

Hao was a bit vague, but it wasn’t a lie; 299 million is indeed over 200 million.

"Holy crap, that much!"

Zhou Xun was stunned, and An Feng’s eyes widened. Gao Yuanyuan and Li Xiaoran, planting trees nearby, also looked over.

Zhou Xun and An Feng’s endorsent fees are roughly five million every two years.

Two hundred million, that’s equivalent to forty endorsents.

Realistically, that’s an almost impossible task. Stars earn a lot but also spend a lot.

According to Forbes, Zhou Xun’s annual inco last year was 25 million.

Hao’s stock earnings are worth ten years of hers.

"For people like us, any investnt advice?"

Li Xiaoran, living in the shadow of being oppressed by bigwigs for years, is eager to earn more money.

If it wasn’t for Hao’s help back then, and being under Zhao Baogang’s protection, she’d already be like fish on their chopping board.

These bigwigs don’t just covet your body; they also have many perverse hobbies.

In the industry, everyone knows to steer clear, even if it’s not outright acknowledged.

"Stocks are very risky, like my Penguin stocks. At their peak the year before last, they were 72 bucks a share, dropped to 28 last year, and even with so recovery this year, they’re just around 50..."

Hao doesn’t intend to urge others to play with stocks.

It’s like a ticket to the rooftop.

There’s a joke that says the ones who make the most in the stock market are often the ones who don’t play the stocks.

As long as you play, one day you’ll get stuck.
