With the successful conclusion of the 72nd anniversary celebration, the Shanghai Theatre Academy, already one of the top three art schools in the country, once again took the internet by storm.
Not only were there stars aplenty, but there were also big shots supporting the event, sparking a Shanghai Theatre Academy trend online for a mont.
"There’s less than a month until the joint exams, and I was still deciding which school to apply to. After watching the Shanghai Theatre Academy’s anniversary, I’ve made my decision! I’m applying to Shanghai Theatre Academy for Hu Ge and Gu Bai, the gods!"
This was a Weibo post with thousands of likes, followed by a multitude of diverse comnts.
"I’m a student from the 2016 class of the Stage Design departnt at Shanghai Theatre Academy, in the sa year as Gu Bai, the god! I’ve seen him several tis at school, and he’s indeed explosively handso! Keep going, girl!"
"No way, no way? Is soone really just drooling over Gu Bai’s body? Isn’t it more about his wealth and billions?"
"Ordinary girls make choices, but average girls want it all!"
"Every year, tens of thousands of students apply to Shanghai Theatre Academy, but only a few hundred are admitted. I suggest this student face reality—getting into Shanghai Theatre Academy isn’t that easy."
Due to Gu Bai not appearing throughout this anniversary celebration—only making a brief speech in the promotional video—his popularity was even higher than those of the stars.
This also generally reflects the focus of contemporary young people.
Money is always more important than looks.
As for Gu Bai, this Shanghai Theatre Academy celebration was rely a minor episode. At this mont, Gu Bai was sitting in a car heading to YW Company.
The scheduled negotiation ti was today.
The space in the Bentley was ample, with Mr. Shao and Gu Bai seated together in the backseat without feeling crowded.
"Mr. Shao, what do you think are the chances of success for this acquisition negotiation?"
Faced with Gu Bai’s question, Mr. Shao thought for a while before slowly answering, "It shouldn’t be too difficult. According to our investigation, although YW Company has a great reputation in the industry, it has been in a state of loss. Right after we sent the acquisition report to their company, YW’s second-largest shareholder even personally contacted and expressed satisfaction with our 400 million offer.
However...
YW’s major shareholder seems very resistant to the acquisition and hasn’t responded to us during the report period. I estimate that the biggest challenge in this acquisition plan is their major shareholder."
"You an Ai Shengnan?"
"That’s right. Does Chairman Gu know her?"
"We’ve t once. Actually, she is my neighbor."
"Chairman Gu ans the one at Sea View No.1 Celestial Joy Seat, right?"
Gu Bai nodded slightly.
Following Gu Bai’s topic, Mr. Shao laughed and said, "Ai Shengnan is already looking for a buyer to sell that apartnt. This just goes to show that our investigation of YW was not wrong. They’ve already fallen into a financial crisis, so much so that the major shareholder needs to liquidate real estate. This is good news for our acquisition negotiations."
Gu Bai nodded lightly.
Whether Ai Shengnan survives or not has nothing to do with him; he had only t her once by chance.
In his previous life, he could only see won of her level online, but now his status is not even on the sa level as hers.
Thinking of sothing, Gu Bai turned back to Mr. Shao and said, "How is the acquisition of Shanghai All-Knowing Network progressing?"
"A negotiation team has been specially set up and the acquisition report has been sent. Now we’re just waiting for a response from the governnt."
Gu Bai nodded.
"I’ve been exposed too much recently. To avoid any suspicion, I’ll hand over full responsibility for this acquisition to you. Regarding the acquisition of Shanghai All-Knowing Network, I have only one request: as long as the price is right, taking a minor loss is okay. The governnt will compensate in other ways. This is not an ordinary acquisition; you should understand its aning."
Mr. Shao nodded like a pecking chick.
"Rest assured, Chairman Gu, I will definitely handle it according to your instructions."
When Gu Bai founded the Black Swan Charity Foundation, Mr. Shao held an opposing view. He thought that, as a startup, there was no need to make such a big noise about charity imdiately.
Although many entrepreneurs can’t avoid doing charity to boost reputation, they generally do so after achieving success. Who would, like Gu Bai, spend two billion on charity a few months after the company’s founding?
Fortunately, Gu Bai made the expenditure from his own account, so Mr. Shao didn’t advise him too much.
Now Mr. Shao finally understands Gu Bai’s prowess. In the capital industry, it’s easy to step on mines, and Gu Bai’s charity action is like buying mine-clearing equipnt with money. Although two billion is a lot, the effect is indeed too obvious.
Now, Mr. Shao admires Gu Bai completely.
Young, possessing imnse wealth and a deep background, yet still very thoughtful and ticulous. He is very thankful that he left his original company to join Black Swan Capital.
Just his current position far surpasses the previous one.
The general manager of a billion-dollar group, and the Black Swan Group is still on the highway of developnt. Following this model, Mr. Shao believes it’s very likely they will break through to a trillion scale in less than two years!
If Gu Bai knew that his actions to complete system tasks had such deep aning in Mr. Shao’s eyes, he’d probably be filled with confusion.
The Bentley was gently cruising on the roads of Shanghai, followed by several business cars, filled with an air of solemnity.
Passing vehicles also dared not get too close, fearing that even a slight scratch might result in a dozen burly n in suits popping out at once.
