How to be financially free

Chapter 864
After a while, Xu Wen took Han Han aside to explain the matter.
"Do you want to continue your career? If you want to continue, just find any reason to go abroad for further study. I will arrange for you to go abroad to raise a baby. If you don't continue, just announce your withdrawal from the entertainment industry."
Naturally, he didn't take the entertainment industry too seriously.
In the past, if Han Han had a heart, he was willing to praise him, but now that he has a child, he naturally puts the child first.
"I..." A trace of reluctance flashed across Han Han's face.
Now that she is at the peak of her career, although her position in the entertainment circle cannot be separated from Xu Wen's strong support behind her, she can be considered step by step.
If she said give up, she would give up. Naturally, she was reluctant.
Taking a step back, women still need to have a career of their own, so as not to be underestimated.
She didn't need to think about how good the women around Xu Wen were. If she didn't have this career, wouldn't she be too uncompetitive?
"Understood, how about this, I will arrange for you to go abroad first, you don't need to worry about the details, I will arrange everything." Xu Wen could see Han Han's reluctance, and simply made the decision for her.
"Honey, you're so kind." Han Han jumped for joy, embraced Xu Wen, and leaned gently on his chest. "Are you satisfied with the child's name I just mentioned? In fact, it would be the best if you came to pick it up."
"Satisfied." Xu Wen stroked Han Han's beautiful hair and couldn't help smiling. "Unexpectedly, you are quite good at studying poetry."
"Don't dare to be embarrassed, I figured it out after flipping through the books for a long time these days." Han Han confessed obediently.
Not long after, Han Han, who is known as the head of the new generation of four florets in the entertainment industry, held a press conference and publicly announced that he would temporarily leave the entertainment industry to go abroad for further studies.
"I think that life is a different stage. I think it may not be a good choice to spend a period of time to improve yourself." Han Han said at the press conference.
It has to be said that it really takes a kind of courage to suddenly announce that you will disappear for a period of time at the peak of your career.
Immediately, this news caused a lot of influence in the entertainment industry. Most people were full of praise, thinking that this was a well-structured idea.
However, some people think Han Han is stupid.
What is the entertainment circle, let alone a year, if there is no exposure for a few months, the popularity will drop sharply, and when the time comes, things will change, how much popularity will be left?
Suddenly, opinions were divided.
Han Han ignored these gossip, and under Xu Wen's careful arrangement, she took a private jet, accompanied by a professional team, and went overseas to raise a baby in a low-key manner.
If other celebrities retired for a year or so, they might really disappear.
But Han Han won't, even if she doesn't show up for a year or so, the variety shows, reality shows, and movies she recorded in advance will be released one after another within a year, and her exposure is still not weak.
···
"It really is a blessing to have many children!" Zhao Yuzhen was filled with emotion.
As soon as I returned to Haicheng this morning, I met several people non-stop, and I didn't know how many meeting gifts I gave.
They are all one-in-a-thousand, incomparably top-notch good girls, but looking at this girl in front of the couple, she is either soft and sticky, or shyly calling uncle and aunt, or boldly calling dad mom.
That feeling is really indescribable.
"Son, besides money, what else can you give these girls? Do you have a name? They will give birth to you?" Zhao Yuzhen, who is also a woman, looked at her son and couldn't help asking her soul.
"Fame? Marriage? Which of them think I owe them?" Xu Wen asked with a smile.
Marriage is a shared risk and a community of interests. For him, he naturally does not need the shackles of a marriage.
For them, it can only be said that there is no such thing as the best of both worlds.
They have already made their choice.
After hearing this, Zhao Yuzhen wanted to refute, but after thinking about it, she felt that there seemed to be no strong reason to come up with.
It's not that she has to boast about her son to the sky.
What Xu Wen has achieved now is indeed unparalleled in the world, perfect in the world.How many girls can be ruthless and choose to leave if they can't monopolize?
If you really leave, I'm afraid you will just be trapped in a lifetime of shackles, right?
Xu Wen was indeed as he said, at least materially, he did not owe any girls.
Pregnant, needless to say, luxury houses and cars, 24-hour nannies, security, medical care, everything is available.As for companionship, although he can't be perfect, he still tries to spare time to meet up every now and then.
It can be said that he is playful, but it definitely has nothing to do with being ungrateful.
In just one month, Xu Wen arranged one after another, and their respective jobs were suspended one after another, and they began to concentrate on caring for the baby.
Sun Pingting, who was originally at CCTV, was at the peak of her career. She discussed with Xu Wen privately, and she still planned to delay leaving her career a little bit, and she also got Xu Wen's support.
"I still want my parents to come over." Sun Pingting expressed a little embarrassed.
"Then come, I guess you'll get used to having them around." Xu Wen readily agreed.
On the same day, Sun Haifeng and Li Yue rushed to the capital in a hurry, put down everything and prepared to take good care of their daughter.
And this year is also the pinnacle of Pengwei New Energy.
Thanks to its absolute technological leadership, Pengwei New Energy also takes the lead in the global new energy power battery market, completely dominating the global market.
A trillion-dollar giant company is well-deserved.
As for Xu Wen, who owns the absolute controlling stake in Pengwei, his personal wealth has also reached a terrifying figure.
In the same year, Xu Wen fully acquired the beauty company that was a joint venture with Wen Zihui's father.
In these years, although Xu Wen did not follow up with this company except for the initial capital, Wen Zihui's father managed the company well.
However, after all, he is no longer in the prime of life, and he is not very ambitious, so he has long been determined to sell all the company's shares.
Xu Wen was naturally the first choice.
Immediately after they hit it off, Xu Wen reserved a few shares for Wen Zihui's father, and bought the rest.
Holding tens of billions in cash, Wen Zihui's father was naturally satisfied and couldn't be more satisfied. As for the remaining few points of shares, he waved his hand and left them directly to Wen Zihui.
They never expected that in the future a few years later, these few points of shares would actually create tens of billions of wealth.
And Wen Zihui, also relying on these few points of shares, was ranked in the list of the mainland's richest women in one fell swoop.
In the month of acquiring the company, Xu Wen arranged for the company to set up a new product line called Luoshen, focusing on beauty products for women.
The product is the most basic version of the beauty formula exchanged by Xu Wen in the system store. It has the effect of whitening and anti-wrinkle. Although it is only the most basic version, it is enough to beat all the products on the market.
A few months later, the Luoshen pro muscle suit was released.
The product release was a little low-key, but not long after, countless users shared their experience in person, and suddenly, a trend swept the entire skin care and beauty market, and it was completely set off.
And a cosmetics giant that will almost monopolize the skin care and beauty market in the future, enough to compete with L'Oreal and Estee Lauder, has set sail since then.
At the same time, Xu Wen established his own private biological laboratory and began to participate in the research and development of real anti-aging products.
COFCO Seaview One.
Wearing pajamas, Wen Zihui folded his arms and quietly watched Xu Wen talking on the balcony in the distance.
Although she was nearly forty years old, she was well maintained, and there was hardly any trace of time on her face.
On the balcony, Xu Wen was playing Ye Qing's fetal heart rate.
bang bang bang bang bang
One after another, it sounded quite powerful.
As Xu Wen listened, a smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
"It must be a perfect little boy like you." Wen Zihui came to the side, smiling with uncontrollable envy and longing.
Xu Wen put away his mobile phone and put one arm around Wen Zihui's waist.
"What's the matter, do you want one too?"
"Who doesn't want to be a mother?" Wen Zihui pursed her lips and smiled slightly, and gently covered the hands around her waist, "But I just want to think about it. If I don't have a baby, my sister won't be able to get along with me when she gets older. .”
Xu Wen didn't say anything.
At the age of nearly forty, no matter what kind of consideration is taken, the risk is undoubtedly very high.
"My sister is really old, no amount of skin care products can bring back my youth." Wen Zihui didn't know what she was thinking of, and she couldn't help but gently stroked the corner of her eye that she could only vaguely see when she looked closely. crow's feet.
Sister Wen's appearance anxiety became more and more serious.
"No way, you can't see crow's feet at all. Now some girls still have crow's feet. Sister Wen, you are in a state that even little girls can't compare to." Xu Wen took a closer look, shook his head with a smile and said.
"Really, you should take a closer look." Wen Zihui looked at the handsome face that was so close in front of him, his face was still as handsome as that of a boy, feeling ashamed inexplicably in his heart.
Xu Wen caught Wen Zihui's expression and could only sigh slightly in his heart.
This day is inevitable after all.
Now Wen Zihui is nearly forty, and she is well maintained, she looks like a big sister, but ten years, 20 years?
Not just her, but everyone else too.
But he has a lifespan of 180 years, even if he is 80 years old, he still has a hundred years to live, and since his physical condition has not changed, there is a high probability that his appearance will not change much.
This is very embarrassing.
It seems that the progress of the laboratory has to be accelerated.
There is no actual anti-aging technology from the laboratory, and it still needs to be developed, but because the specific principle technology has been exchanged, it will be developed soon.
When the time comes, it will be used by them when the time comes.
Although it is impossible to stay young forever, it is still achievable to look like a 50-30-year-old at the age of 30. Moreover, it is not just the appearance, but the physical function and aging degree, which is equivalent to the [-]-year-old.
Xu Wen took Wen Zihui's hand and comforted her in a gentle voice for a while.
He knew that such comfort could only relieve anxiety temporarily, only by truly solving this problem.
Secondly, his own appearance is still the same at the age of 40 or [-]. Even if it is justified in the past, if he still bears this face in a few decades, it will be too unreasonable.
Fortunately, some temperament props have mature or even old temperament, let's wait until the real day.
A few months later, the results of the biological laboratory were released.
Xu Wen held the light blue liquid in his hand and looked at it.
There is only one in the world to delay aging in the true sense.
Because he was too sensitive, he even used the props in the system store to ensure the absolute reliability of his biological laboratory staff.
"Isn't it a priceless treasure?" Xu Wen muttered to himself.
He can't use it himself, after all, he has broken through the limit of human beings, but others can still use it.
Because the raw materials are too precious and the extraction is too difficult, only three servings are made in this batch.
Parents have two copies, and one is for Sister Wen, who has the most anxiety about her appearance. As for the others, everyone has a share.
That night, in Wen Zihui's room.
Xu Wen conveniently added this potion to the green juice that Wen Zihui drank every night.
Wen Zihui didn't notice any difference, and drank it all in one gulp.
"How do you feel?" Xu Wen looked at Sister Wen and asked curiously.
"I drink this every day. It doesn't taste good. What's the matter?" Wen Zihui shook the cup and asked a little strangely.
"Nothing." Xu Wen shook his head and smiled.
In the early morning, when Xu Wen was still asleep, he heard a scream in his ear.
Opening her eyes, sister Wen's face was radiant, her cheeks were pink and rosy, as if she had returned to her youthful age overnight.
"Good brother, take a good look at your sister!"
"Sister Wen, you look like this." Xu Wen looked at Sister Wen, whose face was full of collagen, and suddenly realized.
"Good brother, you can really talk." Wen Zihui opened his arms and gave Xu Wen a deep hug.
She is sure that she is young.
This is not an illusion, but a real change inside and outside.
She stood in front of the mirror beautifully, carefully looking at herself in the mirror.The blemishes in her smile that she had been infinitely concerned about were completely invisible at the moment. Her whole face was rosy and fair, like a little girl in happiness.
Seeing Sister Wen's performance at the moment, Xu Wen nodded in satisfaction.
The effect is really as the system said, it can really restore the body's functions to a certain extent and delay aging.
It's a pity that this kind of biotechnology is destined to be unable to be announced, otherwise the impact will be too great, and he can only instruct the laboratory to conduct further research.
It is not certain that on the basis of the system store, there will be another breakthrough.
Saying goodbye to Sister Wen's side, Xu Wen set off to go to Mom and Dad's side.As usual, without telling them, he watched them drink the water with his own eyes.
Early the next morning, the house was turned upside down.
Xu Jiang was lifting dumbbells early in the morning. He was no longer in his sixties yesterday, but in his early forties. His hair was black and shiny, and he was full of energy.
Muscles can be seen vaguely in both arms, and the whole person is full of vigor and vitality in the prime of life.
