The first thing Chu Xiang did when she got home was to check her assets. Chu Chengzhi was very generous to her. She currently owned ten villas, five apartments, eight luxury cars, five percent of the shares of the Chu Group, and five hundred million yuan of pocket money.
These were the main assets, and the rest of the precious jewelry, antiques, and famous paintings were not included.
After checking her assets, she asked the headhunting company to help hire several top people in the industry to form her investment team. Among these people, there were people who were good at entertainment industry investment, real estate investment, stock investment, and so on. They were involved in almost all the profitable industries.
Chu Xiang gave them the task of finding projects worth investing in. She would invest in them, and they would be rewarded with five percent of the profits, plus a high salary.
They all knew her identity, and there was no problem in trusting her. However, one of them was tempted and tried to cheat her. Who knew that as soon as the proposal was handed to her, she found the problem after reading it once. She directly fired the person and said that she would never hire him.
Chu Xiang's "never hire" was not a problem. If she believed that there was a problem with people's character, all the companies of the Chu and Ji families would not hire them in the future. Even the companies that had a good relationship with them, cooperated with them, or tried to curry favor with them would not hire them. This person was basically useless in the industry, unless the rivals of the Chu and Ji families were willing to take him in. But such a person with a bad character, why would the rivals take him in? Destroy the Great Wall?
Chu Xiang's act of killing the chicken to warn the monkeys successfully stunned her investment team. Even Chu Chengzhi was very surprised by his daughter's decisiveness. Such a ruthless method really didn't seem like something a girl could do. However, after being surprised, he was satisfied and relieved. His heir was so excellent, what more could he ask for?
From then on, the people in Chu Xiang's investment team focused on finding high-quality projects, striving to stand out in front of Chu Xiang. In this way, they might be appreciated by the richest man and get better development. Chu Xiang did not let them down. As long as the proposals they handed in were really valuable, she would invest without hesitation.
Among other things, in the entertainment industry, she had invested in two movies, four variety shows, and one TV series.
She was the most generous investor, but she didn't show up to socialize. These were all done by the people in her team. She still had nothing to do and could go wherever she wanted. She did not have a company and only cared about money.
At first, everyone didn't think much of it, thinking that the girl was bored and wanted to earn some pocket money. Wasn't her investment just pocket money for the richest man?
In the end, no one expected that all these investments would turn out to be profitable!
The entertainment projects that Chu Xiang was willing to invest in were all successful. There were only a few that could be successful in a year, and she invested in 80% of them. The remaining 20% was because the other investors had already reached an agreement, or the people in her team hadn't realized that it was a good project. She didn't even cause any ripples when she killed those who didn't want to submit.
This directly proved her foresight and made her the most popular investor in the entertainment industry. After all, she didn't know how to invite people to socialize, stuff people in, or tell them what to do. Who wouldn't love a sugar daddy who only gave money and didn't care about anything else?
In addition to the entertainment industry, Chu Xiang's investments in other industries also saw results. Zheng Feiyu was miserable. He didn't have x-ray vision and couldn't gamble on stones anymore. He asked an appraiser to go once, but the quality of the raw stones he bought was not ideal. He pretended to be indifferent to jade and began to invest in the entertainment industry.
The entertainment industry made money so quickly. When he was still a poor man, he had been looking forward to this colorful industry. Now that he had become an investor, he could get directors, producers, and big stars to accompany him to socialize. There was even a steady stream of beautiful stars climbing into his bed. This industry allowed him to satisfy his vanity to the greatest extent.
Therefore, he used the two popular actresses, the Best Actress and the Best Actress, to invest and earn money. The two of them had been in the entertainment industry for so long, and they still had some eyesight. At least they knew a few reliable directors and producers.
Zheng Feiyu relied on this to distinguish a few projects that were easy to make money and invested a lot of money. Who knew that Chu Xiang would spend more money than him as soon as she entered the industry. She was not as troublesome as him, and her eyesight was more accurate than his. The final income made him jealous, and he actually lost money after calculating it!
There were only so many audiences and the market was so big. The projects that might have been rejected became popular because of Chu Xiang's investment, or the projects that Zheng Feiyu originally had his eyes on were snatched away by Chu Xiang. This directly crushed Zheng Feiyu's investment.
In terms of money and status, Zheng Feiyu couldn't compare with Chu Xiang. Naturally, everyone knew who was better to choose as an investor.
Zheng Feiyu had relied on the Princess's connections to make some investments, but it didn't make much of a splash. This was because there were only so many good investment projects in the world. Chu Xiang's professional team was focused on searching in this area. Even if Chu Xiang's team missed it, there were still other big shots in the industry investing. How could Zheng Feiyu compete? Or, he didn't have the eyesight at all and couldn't determine which project was really profitable.
His investment method was actually very similar to Chu Xiang's. They both found excellent investors to work for and gave them generous rewards. However, first of all, the reward he gave was not as much as Chu Xiang's, and there was no commission for successful investments. In terms of sincerity, there was a big gap. Second of all, he didn't know how to invest. Compared with Chu Xiang who could see the loopholes after reading it once, he read the proposal like reading a book. The people under him naturally had room to cheat him. Even if they didn't cheat him, there was a high risk of investment failure.
Therefore, among Zheng Feiyu's investments, those that made money only accounted for 10%, those that didn't make money accounted for 40%, and those that lost money accounted for 50%. In the end, he lost a lot of money.
Li Fei's child had been born. Out of fear and looking for a backer, Zheng Feiyu married Li Fei. Now, Li Fei was Zheng Feiyu's legal wife.
However, all of Li Fei's connections were in the underworld and couldn't help much in terms of investment. She could only let Zheng Feiyu do everything smoothly and no one dared to mess with him. Zheng Feiyu still maintained an ambiguous relationship with other women, but he restrained himself a lot. Because Li Fei was too strict, Zheng Feiyu was still a little afraid of Li Fei's means of killing Rao, so he kept his fooling around very secret.
The popular actress and the Best Actress Award winner didn't have any backers. Although they were unwilling to be the third or fourth wheel, they were well coaxed by Zheng Feiyu. In addition, they could get a lot of benefits from being with Zheng Feiyu, so they were willing to be his secret lovers.
Because the princess didn't come to China often, Zheng Feiyu went on a business trip to meet her. For the time being, the four women maintained a perfect balance and enjoyed the happiness of having multiple partners.
However, he didn't get to enjoy it for long before he was beaten back to square one by Chu Xiang's investment. He didn't understand. Chu Xiang was already the daughter of the richest man. She should just wait to inherit the family business. Why did she come out to invest? He suspected that Chu Xiang was deliberately attacking him!
Chu Xiang meant this. She didn't even check Zheng Feiyu's investment range. She only estimated the scope of Zheng Feiyu's investment and then formed a team to invest in good projects. She didn't have to worry about the rest. She could easily block Zheng Feiyu's path. Why not?
The good projects were taken by her and the other big shots. Zheng Feiyu didn't know what to do with the rest of the bad projects, so he just picked from them. If he didn't lose money, who would?
In fact, if Zheng Feiyu had kept a low profile after he got the X-ray vision, he would have calmed down and learned more useful things with these connections. He wouldn't be like now, where he couldn't do anything and only knew how to lose money.
It was a pity that Zheng Feiyu became complacent once he achieved success. He was eager to enjoy life and didn't learn anything. Suddenly, he lost his golden finger and was beaten back to square one. He was powerless after suffering a little setback.
The people around Zheng Feiyu didn't understand. They secretly advised him not to be too stubborn in unfamiliar fields. They advised him to continue to gamble on stones and make jewelry. But how could Zheng Feiyu dare? He firmly said that he was no longer interested in jade and wanted to challenge a new field.
Gradually, even the company's senior executives who were really capable and hardworking found other jobs. There was no future in following a stupid leader.
Zheng Feiyu's investments failed repeatedly. The three women who helped to pull the strings were also embarrassed and lost some of their connections. In addition, Li Fei noticed that Zheng Feiyu was having an affair and became stricter. The popular actress and the award-winning movie queen also left Zheng Feiyu. They couldn't get any benefits from Zheng Feiyu and lost their connections. They even threatened their popularity and interests. Naturally, they weren't willing to be third and fourth wives anymore. They didn't think there was anything good about the man they loved. How could this man, who couldn't do anything and had an affair, be worthy of love?
Although one's spirit would change, Zheng Feiyu didn't have his golden finger. He always had a guilty temperament. Moreover, he had succeeded repeatedly in the past. Now that he had failed repeatedly, his charm was naturally gone. Not only did third and fourth wives look down on him, even Li Fei, who had tried her best to get him, felt that he had become much worse now. He was no longer the high-quality man he used to be.
Chu Xiang hadn't forgotten the car accident caused by Li Fei. Chu Chengzhi hadn't forgotten either. They had been collecting evidence of the Li family's illegal activities. Ji Haifan and Father Ji had also helped. This matter couldn't be easily forgotten.
Chu Xiang had the Heaven and Earth Mirror, so it was more convenient for them to search for evidence. Therefore, after only a year, they had collected enough evidence and anonymously reported Li Fei's father.
The evidence was conclusive, and the powerful underworld force behind Li Fei quickly collapsed. Zheng Feiyu was still very confused when he saw his father-in-law being taken away. He had lost the daughter of the richest man and sacrificed his own marriage to rely on a backer. Was it gone just like that? Then why did he provoke Li Fei in the first place? Wasn't it like picking up sesame seeds and throwing away the watermelon?!
After confirming that Li Fei was useless, he immediately filed for divorce. Now, there was only one country's princess who liked him very much. He felt that since he couldn't expand his company, he might as well go to that country and marry the princess. He could still live a luxurious life for the rest of his life. Although he would be leaving his home, it was much better than what he was doing now.
However, since Li Fei could kill Chu Xiang back then, she naturally wouldn't let Zheng Feiyu off now. She used the same method, drugging him with sleeping pills and causing the brakes to malfunction. At that time, only Zheng Feiyu and the princess were in the car. Zheng Feiyu revealed his true nature at the critical moment of life and death. He didn't care about the princess's safety at all and fiercely turned the steering wheel to protect himself. However, in the end, he was still paralyzed, while the princess only had a concussion.
After this incident, the princess only hated him. After teaching him a lesson, she returned to China and never set foot in China again. Li Fei also didn't have the power behind her to clean up the traces. Evidence was found and she was jailed.
This news was very big. After all, these people were famous on the Internet. The netizens were shocked and discussed for a long time. Through this incident, they confirmed that it was definitely Li Fei who killed Chu Xiang last time and gained another wave of sympathy for Chu Xiang.
However, Chu Xiang didn't pay attention to the public opinion on the Internet in this world. She also didn't go to see Zheng Feiyu, who was already paralyzed, so Zheng Feiyu didn't even have a chance to regret in front of her.
Zheng Feiyu's mother wanted to ask Chu Xiang for some money, but she couldn't even see Chu Xiang's face. She couldn't even find out which country Chu Xiang went to play in. She could only occasionally catch some information about Chu Xiang from the news.
Zheng Feiyu's and Zheng Feiyu's assets were quickly used up. Every time the two of them saw the news and gossip about Chu Xiang, they regretted it so much. It was as if their hearts, livers, spleens, lungs, and kidneys all hurt. Another year passed, and Zheng Feiyu went crazy. He only knew how to stare blankly and talk about his X-ray vision. Zheng Feiyu's mother's hair was all white. In order to take care of him, she had to pick up the trash. Her back was bent, and she seemed to have aged ten years.
Chu Xiang was still playing with her silly boyfriend in the South Sea and the North Sea. When the elders were tired, they would take over the family business. It was as if she was soaking in a honey jar for the rest of her life. It was extremely comfortable. The Heaven and Earth Mirror had worked hard to find such a comfortable identity for her. She just didn't know what it would be like next time.
