You've bought an island?! "
Ouyang Qing's voice suddenly rose and became shrill, appearing to be extremely shocked.
Although she had heard Ye Lingchen say that he wanted to buy an island, it was just hearsay. Deep down, she felt that it was an unrealistic thought. When the time came, she could only feel shock.
How long had it been? He really wanted to buy an island?!
She knew a thing or two about the difficulty of buying an island. Most people were not qualified to buy an island even if they had the money. Moreover, the amount of money needed to buy an island was definitely a huge sum. Only the top ten richest people in the country could afford it. Ye Lingchen could buy an island?
"Yeah, I bought an island. Is it that rare?" Ye Lingchen could not help but smile, pretending to be relaxed.
He actually wanted to show off a little. After all, he would be the owner of an island in the future. That was much grander than buying a house, a car, or a villa. It was on a completely different level.
'Is it rare? What do you think? '
"No, it's really an island? How much did you buy it for? How big is it? "Ouyang Qing's voice was trembling as she asked blankly.
"8.2 square kilometers, more than two billion."
"Hiss!" Ouyang Qing took a deep breath. Those were the only two numbers left in her mind.
It was not because it was too expensive, but because it was too cheap. Too cheap!
"8.2 square kilometers is only two billion?!" Ouyang Qing's voice was a little nervous. "Did you meet a scammer?"
"Will I be scammed? Alright, cut the crap. Send me the money! " Ye Lingchen ordered. "Also, get ready. Pick a good day and we'll go to the island together to design and build the headquarters."
Ouyang Qing was still in a daze. She was in a good state of mind, but she was still shocked by the news. It was too illogical and she could not help but be shocked.
However, after thinking about Ye Lingchen's actions, she felt that the news might be true. She dared not delay and immediately started to earn money from Ye Lingchen's account.
If he could really buy an island, it would be a huge profit.
Following that, Ye Lingchen gave Zhang Yunxi and Xiao Feifei a call. When they found out that Ye Lingchen had bought an island, their reactions were much more excited than Ouyang Qing's. They almost screamed, unable to contain their excitement.
It was too shocking!
If a person's ultimate dream was to buy a big house and live in a villa, then there was another dream that they didn't even dare to think about, and that was to own their own island!
However, Ye Lingchen had made it a reality.
Then, the two women immediately transferred the money over to him without saying a word.
With money, things were much simpler. After all, Ye Lingchen was a person of status, so the process was not too complicated. All he had to do was go through a special procedure. After paying the money and registering, the island would follow his surname from then on.
"F * ck, are you that rich?" Lin Ao was dumbfounded. Although he guessed that Ye Lingchen was rich, he did not expect him to be that rich.
It was more than two billion, not twenty yuan.
The other members of the Warrior's Department stared with their eyes wide open. Their eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.
No matter who it was, they would be extremely envious of money.
After receiving the land certificate of the island and Ye Lingchen's Upper-Class Sentinel Medal, Ye Lingchen was quite satisfied with the bountiful harvest.
"By the way, Guardian Ye, are you really confident about the military TV series?" Qin Baichuan asked with a serious expression.
"Little Friend Ye, this matter is very important. It's related to the morale of the people. You must not be careless." Lin Tianxiong added, "In recent years, there have been many military-themed TV series and movies, but they've been criticized by many people and have a bad reputation. Coupled with the fact that there are little fresh meats running amok, the impact is very bad."
"Don't worry, I guarantee it'll be popular!" Ye Lingchen smiled. That matter was really not difficult for him. "What's your hope for the TV series' ratings?"
Qin Baichuan was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Are you that confident that you can break two ratings?"
Ye Lingchen shook his head.
He then held up three fingers. "Three!"
"I'm confident that I can break three ratings!"
"Three?"
Qin Baichuan was stunned. Lin Tianxiong was stunned. Everyone else was stunned.
That kind of guarantee was too big. If they did not know Ye Lingchen's character, they would definitely think that he was being arrogant.
Lin Ao shook his head with a bitter smile. Brother Ye was good at everything, but he had a problem with showing off. He was often that direct.
After all, iPartment's current peak ratings had only just broken three!
The audience for military-themed TV series was much smaller than iPartment. After all, young people, especially women, rarely watched military-themed TV series. That made it even more difficult.
"Who knows, it might even break four." Ye Lingchen shrugged.
Everyone was speechless. Qin Baichuan could not help but say, "If you can really break three ratings and have a good reputation, I can introduce you to someone to help you build the island."
Ye Lingchen's eyes focused.
He could design pretty well, but it was obviously unrealistic for him to build his own house. He could not possibly carry bricks, could he? He really did not have the time for that.
Qin Baichuan smiled. "Hehe, a master architect with the surname Hao."
"Grandmaster Hao!"
Ye Lingchen's eyes lit up. Since he had studied architecture before, he had naturally heard of Grandmaster Hao's name.
China's infrastructure was world-famous. Other countries only built a bridge after a few years, but China could build several bridges in a year. Apart from that, their infrastructure such as houses and subways left other countries in the dust.
Grandmaster Hao, on the other hand, was a master of infrastructure in China. There were no less than ten bridges built by him alone!
Even landmark bridges such as Tongjing Bridge and Tongjiang Bridge, as well as Capital City's Underpants Building and Hong Kong's Financial Building were all built by him!
However, it was said that he had retired from the industry and was ready to enjoy his old age.
Only someone like Qin Baichuan could invite him to come out of retirement.
"Are you serious?" Ye Lingchen could not help but ask.
Since he was going to do it, he would do it to the best of his abilities. That was what Ye Lingchen thought.
He did not want to be sloppy with the construction of the island. Moreover, building an island was different from building a house. He really needed a good architect!
"Hehe, do you think I'd lie to you?"
"Alright!" The corner of Ye Lingchen's mouth curled up slightly. "I'll accept this mission!"
Then, he continued, "As for some of the actors in the movie, I want to choose from the Warrior's Department. That way, it will be more in line with the feeling of the battlefield, and the fight scenes will be more exciting."
"Sure, whoever is willing can sign up." Qin Baichuan nodded.
However, the warriors were silent.
They were more repulsed by the idea of being a celebrity. It felt like they were being watched like monkeys. Moreover, they were naturally not fond of celebrities. They felt that they were too fake and not manly enough.
"Tch, I'm not going to act. It's too vulgar." Lin Ao also curled his lips.
"I'm not going either. I can go into battle and kill the enemy, but I really can't act in this."
"What's wrong with showing your face in public?"
Ye Lingchen looked at them and smiled. "As long as you act in the movie, you'll be paid at least according to the standard of a third-rate celebrity. If you can become the lead actor, you'll be paid according to the standard of a first-rate celebrity."
Many warriors curled their lips. "What first-rate or third-rate? Don't even think of using money to beat us. We're not that kind of people!"
"Oh, I forgot to mention. A third-rate celebrity earns 100,000 per episode. A first-rate celebrity earns 800,000 per episode," Ye Lingchen continued.
"I'll sign up!"
"To tell you the truth, I've had a dream of being a celebrity since I was young."
"It doesn't matter if it's money or not. The key is that I like to act as extras."
