Chen Zhao glanced at the document and returned it to Zhang Ting.
"Just tell me directly. What's the current progress? What are the technical difficulties? Are there any funding gaps?"
"Boss, the current progress is still in the early stages. We've completed the model of the main character and the main villain," Zhang Ting said. "There are no technical problems, but …"
Zhang Ting glanced at Chen Zhao and observed the change in his expression. After a slight pause, she continued, "The main problem is that our company's equipment is a bit old."
"What kind of equipment?"
"The computer used to render the graphics and special effects still lacks a host computer with powerful computing power. The computer used to create special effects is not the same as our normal computers. It needs professional equipment. With the equipment we have now, the speed of rendering the graphics and special effects is at least two times slower."
"Do we need to update the equipment? How much? "
Zhang Ting gulped. Chen Zhao said calmly, "Just say it. We've already said this much, so there's no need to hide. Since I've decided to invest in Chinese comics, I'm already mentally prepared. I can't give any suggestions in terms of strategy, but as long as it can be solved with money, it's not a problem for me."
Zhang Ting was still a bit hesitant.
Chen Zhao glanced at her. "Is it because it requires a lot of money?"
Zhang Ting nodded. Chen Zhao was still calm. "How much exactly?"
"A professional animation computer costs at least 500,000 RMB. If it's the best at the current stage, the price will double. If it's imported, there'll be tariffs and the price will increase by 30%. All the departments in the company need about 70 units. The computer also needs at least 2 million RMB and has a computing power of 100 million times per second."
"Not much, but how long can this equipment last?"
"According to the industry's standard equipment update cycle, it can last about five years. Of course, it's not like it can't be used after five years, but there'll definitely be new technology in the next update cycle."
"Five years, 100 million equipment update. That's not expensive," Chen Zhao said calmly. "Write a report for me when you go back. If there's no problem, the money will be transferred immediately. Also, you can contact the equipment supplier now."
"Boss, 100 million RMB isn't a small amount. Aren't you going to audit it?"
"I have my own professional team," Chen Zhao said nonchalantly. "I don't need to be responsible for the audit."
"Shouldn't we make a decision after the audit?"
Chen Zhao looked at Zhang Ting in surprise. "Didn't you ask for the new equipment? Why are you singing a different tune? "
"I'm just afraid that you'll go bankrupt."
Zhang Ting was half serious and half joking.
"I'm sorry, but the amount of investment you requested might not even be enough for a day's income."
Zhang Ting and Ye Ziqing's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
Are you kidding me? Even the number one on the Forbes list would not be able to make such a huge profit.
Don't look at those super-rich people on the Forbes list with assets of tens of billions of US dollars.
In fact, most of these assets relied on the valuation of the financial market to bring wealth.
It's not the money you actually have.
Chen Zhao's wealth was growing faster than the people on the Forbes list.
This was a genuine increase in wealth. There would not be a sharp appreciation or depreciation of wealth due to the fluctuations in the financial market.
"Boss, is your brewery really that profitable?"
"If it's just the brewery, it wouldn't be so profitable. But if you add in the Mysterious Island, it will be."
"Mysterious Island? Boss, you have property on the island? "Ye Ziqing asked in surprise.
"I'm the biggest shareholder of the island."
Zhang Ting and Ye Ziqing could not close their mouths.
Especially Ye Ziqing. She had some exposure to financial products.
Now, investors from all over the world were watching the island.
They were also asking when it would be listed.
The value of the Mystical Island was too great.
It had only been open for less than a month.
But a lot of data had already been dug out.
For example, the number of tourists and their spending power.
The island was not big, but the number of tourists could reach the level of a medium-sized country's tourism industry.
This also caused the island to become the most profitable place in the world. Its GDP even exceeded that of a small country.
This was very terrifying. The GDP of an island exceeded that of a country.
This meant that the owner of the island would be the richest person in the world.
Zhang Ting and Ye Ziqing finally understood how rich Chen Zhao was.
No, they had no idea at all.
It was impossible to estimate. Unless Chen Zhao listed the island.
The market would make the fairest calculations.
If Mysterious Island was listed, its market value would instantly surpass that of the most valuable company in the world.
So, if Chen Zhao wanted to, he could even make his net worth surpass the top ten billionaires on the Forbes list.
Of course, valuations were meaningless to Chen Zhao.
Unless Chen Zhao planned to sell his shares.
Even if Mysterious Island was not listed, Chen Zhao would still be the richest person in the world.
He could even omit the one percent.
Chen Zhao did not plan on using Mysterious Island to make money.
That was too immoral.
With his current wealth, he did not need to do such things.
Zhang Ting and Ye Ziqing finally understood why Chen Zhao had arranged for them to vacation on Mysterious Island.
"Boss, when will Mysterious Island be listed?"
Chen Zhao rolled his eyes at Ye Ziqing. "Never."
Ye Ziqing was not surprised by this answer at all.
Zhang Ting was deeply hurt. She had prepared herself for more than ten days and asked Chen Zhao for a huge sum of money, but it was only a day's income. Maybe even less than a day.
She might not be able to earn this amount in her lifetime.
No wonder Chen Zhao was so generous and did not treat money as money.
He was someone who truly believed that wealth was just a number.
The two also wanted to experience how it felt to have an extra hundred million in their bank account every day.
Of course, this experience could only be done in their dreams.
They did not have to worry about Chen Zhao squandering all his wealth now.
To squander all his wealth, he really had to have a certain ability.
Normal people could not do this.
The speed of squandering could not keep up with the speed of increasing wealth.
This guy must be very troubled.
Even if Chen Zhao was a nouveau riche, he was the one who could make the most money.
Zhang Ting and Ye Ziqing decided not to help Chen Zhao save money anymore.
No matter how much they squandered, they probably could not touch Chen Zhao's wealth.
They did not know that Chen Zhao still had tens of thousands of tons of gold.
Their spending these two days could not even keep up with the interest generated by the cash in his bank account.
