Then ca the most important part of the gas. Lin Zixuan appeared with all her subordinates, and a few words appeared on the huge screens in shiny gold color—Draconic Continent!

The venue was full of gars. Even if they had never played this ga before, they had definitely heard it before. But regardless, they had no clue that this ga could be played in this manner.
The skills they showed were completely beyond people’s imagination. They were truly the experts among the experts!
...
As an entertainnt news reporter, Tang Anqi initially attended the gaming fest to cover the opening ceremony.
But when she arrived, she realized that this inaugural online gaming fest was more than just the opening ceremony.
The live in-ga battles were what attracted her the most.
She had never played Draconic Continent before, and she never knew gars could excel the ga in such a manner. E-Sports, was this the beauty of E-Sports?
After watching a few battles fought out on the screen, Tang Anqi had been completely lured.
After staring blankly for a full minute, Tang Anqi ca to her senses with a shiver. Then, she took out her cara and frantically took pictures.”This is it! It’s this! Once these pictures are released, it will definitely make it to the headlines! Absolutely! Hong Dali has created an unprecedented sports event! E-Sports, this is E-Sports! Watching the killings on the battlefield is as good as watching live sports!”

...
Chenhui Building, level nine. In a small conference room.
Ling Xiaoyi held a report while having a video-conference with Hong Weiguo and Hong Tu via laptop. “Master, Grand Elder. The total cost of this gaming fest has been calculated.”
Grand Elder Hong Tu touched his beard. “En. How much is it in total? Quick, tell us. This ti, the event was quite a big deal. The news of the gaming fest is all over the internet. I don’t rember ever seeing so many gars.”
Hong Weiguo said with a smile, “Dad, there weren’t so many gars. But people like novelty. Hong Dali made the gaming fest such a big event, and there were so many celebrities turned up in addition to Black Tortoise’s appearance. It’s no wonder it beca so popular. But I’m curious, did the fest really not lose money?”
It was hardly surprising. It was no problem for Hong Weiguo to invest millions. But eventually, after the money was invested, were there profits or loss?
This concerned Hong Dali’s title as the year’s Rookie King in the family eting. It was natural that he was worried.
After all, the na of the man was like the shadow of the tree 2 . No one wished for their precious son to spoil their reputation.
Ling Xiaoyi said with a smile, “Old Master, looking solely at the event, it’s a loss. The rental of the venue, the stage, and the six big screens cost a lot of money. These add up to a total of 4.18 million.”
Hong Weiguo nodded. “En, that’s normal. There was no entrance fee, after all. What about other sources of inco? How much is it?”
Since there was no entrance fee, the loss of 4.18 million was not unusual. What Hong Weiguo really wanted to know was whether there were profits in other areas, and how much there was—for example, the endorsents received by those celebrities.
Ling Xiaoyi smiled and reported one by one. “Other profits seem pretty good at the mont. At present, endorsent fees from the celebrities—a total of 12 celebrities endorsed 14 online gas, and the endorsent fees totaled 8.4 million. The average endorsent fee for each online ga company is 700,000.”
Hearing that, Hong Weiguo and Hong Tu inhaled sharply.
Well, in that case, the profit had doubled. Deducting what was paid to the celebrities, Hong Dali made about 4 million.
Ling Xiaoyi continued, “Due to the gaming fest, the stock price for Young Master Liu Mingxin’s Mingxin Network rose by 23%. That’s equivalent to about 80 million in assets. And it’s still steadily increasing.”
Hong Weiguo wiped the cold sweat from his head. He knew that the things that Hong Dali ca up with always impacted the stock market. As a result of the gaming fest, the stock of Liu Mingxin’s Mingxin Network increased by 23%. There was no loss for anyone to get involved with his precious son.
Even Hong Tu’s beard shivered. He turned to look at the family’s most talented Mu Yuxi and said, “Yuxi, did you hear that?”
Mu Yuxi looked hurt as she said, “Yes, I heard. But Old Elder, what Young Master Dali’s capable of, I can’t learn...”
Squandering was a skill. It was not easy to master.
Hearing Mu Yuxi, Hong Tu expressed understanding—He never thought that the gaming fest organized by Hong Dali would make so much money. He had thought that the fest would only be capable of profiting from entrance fees and rchandises. Who would have thought that Liu Mingxin’s company stocks would increase by so much? Seven to eight million in the wink of an eye...
Ling Xiaoyi continued her report, “A total of 1.2 million dividends were obtained from figurines, clothing, watches, and stickers. As the exclusive drink for the gaming fest, Might Beverages’ sales increased by 15%. Hence, the value of Young Master’s 10% shares also increased a lot.”
Hong Weiguo nodded. “En, that’s not unexpected.”
But what ca next was not normal...
Ling Xiaoyi said, “At present, due to the prominent programs that Young Master had organized in West Fourth Loop, there have been rumors that many young n and won have made their hos in the West Fourth Loop after marriage. The property prices of the West Fourth Loop has increased by nearly 10%.”
Hong Weiguo was shocked by what Ling Xiaoyi said. “Seriously?!” He had not paid much attention to property prices. The real estate resources departnt had been managing it. He hurriedly picked up his cell phone and made a call. “Hello, Xiao Liu, are you at the real estate resources departnt? I heard the property prices at West Fourth Loop have increased by 10%?!”
Xiao Liu gulped as he hesitated in his response. “CEO Hong, that... The actual increase... is....” He paused for a mont and gritted his teeth. “16%. And it’s steadily increasing!”
Hong Weiguo was a little upset. “Why didn’t you tell earlier!? I could have bought more land! Such a big matter!”
Secretary Xiao Liu felt aggrieved. “CEO Hong, we can barely manage it here. There are people asking about the developnt of the community. The thing is, the prices are continuing to go up. Young Master Dali has been up to too many things recently. And I’ve been busy with the piece of land from Tianjing Mountain to West Fourth Loop, hence the delay in reporting...”
When Xiao Liu finished speaking, Hong Weiguo suddenly thought of sothing. “Yes, yes, yes. I almost forgot. How are discussions for the land?”
That was a piece of land worth more than two billion, definitely not child’s play! As long as Hong Weiguo bought it and developed it well, it would definitely make money.
Secretary Xiao Liu sounded even more hesitant in his response. “That... the people from the Land and Resources Bureau wanted three billion. I was having a hard ti since our offer was only half of that. I thought it would be hard to co to an agreent. Never would I have though... CEO Hong, where are you? I’d better speak to you face to face.” He stopped his reporting halfway!
