Reborn since 2005

Chapter 809

In late June 2015, after celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival in his hometown, Yan Xin returned to Guangzhou.

At this time, Ai Lili and his daughter Amin were both half a year old.

Cai Qixiang underwent another round of chemotherapy. The cancer cells did not spread and were under relatively good control, but his body looked very weak.

Sometimes I can walk around in the yard with a cane, and sometimes I can only be pushed in a wheelchair to breathe fresh air.

Given his condition, even if he was this seriously ill, he should have been able to receive better medical treatment and shouldn't have been so weak.

His problem was that he thought too much and was worried about the future, which affected his physical condition.

When the two were chatting privately, Cai Qixiang told Yan Xin that he was feeling too tired, was in physical pain, and had a lot on his mind, especially because he was worried about his six-year-old son, Cai Kun.

Since learning that he had cancer, Cai Qixiang's entire spirit and energy collapsed.

During the most serious period, there was no sign of life in his eyes.

It has adjusted a bit now, but overall it still seems quite pessimistic.

He no longer cared about the company's affairs and no longer had the energy to analyze so much information.

When Yan Xin told him that Feng'an Group had invested 5.1 billion yuan in new energy vehicles, he just said "Oh", expressed his support for Yan Xin's decision, and then said nothing more.

The only thing we will pay attention to is the stock price of Feng'an Group.

In his opinion, whether a company's investment decisions are correct or not can be reflected in its stock price.

The capital market is most sensitive to this.

The stock price of Feng'an Group has been relatively strong this year, rising all the way and returning to its previous highest level. After the groundbreaking ceremony of Feng'an Automobile, the stock price has risen further and increased further.

His assets have increased by tens of billions due to the rise in stock prices.

Not to mention Yan Xin, by late June, the total value of the stocks he owned in the two listed companies had reached more than 6 billion.

If the assets of Jinxi Group and Xingguang Group were also counted, he would be a billionaire worth hundreds of billions.

Cai Qixiang no longer has the ability to analyze those things, he only recognizes one principle - as long as the stock price is rising, it means that the company's decision is correct.

This saved Yan Xin a lot of explaining work.

It's not just Feng'an Group's stock performance that's good. The stock prices of listed companies in the real estate industry have all performed well this year.

The richest man in China two years ago was also in real estate. His wealth shrank a lot last year, but this year the share prices of his companies have risen sharply, and he is very likely to become the richest man in China again.

Yan Xin had originally wondered if he would have a chance to become the richest man in China this year, but after seeing the stock price of other companies, he felt that there was little hope.

Unless his Starlight Group and Jinxi Group are both listed, the possibility of him becoming the richest man this year is quite low.

However, that is just an empty title.

The only thing he cared about was whether he could meet Sister Cat in real life after unlocking this achievement.

——Sister Cat made such a promise to him at the beginning.

After he came to Guangzhou, perhaps because he felt a little guilty, he would visit Cai Qixiang every day during his stay in Guangzhou.

I chat with him, sometimes help him push his wheelchair for a walk in the villa area, and sometimes accompany him to the park.

Cai Kun is six years old now and has become sensible, so he will follow along most of the time.

The child has a pretty good relationship with Cai Qixiang. After all, the old man has been raising him since he was a child, and the old man loves him very much, which is completely different from his attitude towards his granddaughter.

When Yan Xin was not here, it was basically Ai Lili who did these things.

It wasn't long since Ai Lili gave birth to a child. She had to take care of the elderly and her nephew, which was indeed tiring - even with the help of a nanny.

After Yan Xin came over, Ai Lili felt much more relaxed.

At the end of June, Shu Yi brought little Mango back to China, went to Xiaorong Town to meet her parents and family, and then lived with Cai Qixiang and took over the task of taking care of the old man.

Shu Yi's relationship with her parents' home is not that good now. When she came back for the summer vacation, she only stayed at her parents' home for half a day, met her parents, gave them some gifts and some money, and then left without living there.

The relationship was not so good, not because she had taken too much care of her father-in-law Cai Qixiang in the past year, which caused dissatisfaction from her natal family, but because after Feng'an Group went public, she became a billionaire with the stocks given to her by Cai Qixiang. Then her natal family made some requests, hoping that she could sell some stocks to cash in and support the entrepreneurship of her natal relatives.

Her relatives on her mother's side need her support, and her sister-in-law also has a lot of relatives who want to start a business and want to get support from her.

At first, she could even use her own stock dividends to provide some support, hoping to make the family relationship stronger.

But the reality went against her wishes. People felt that she had so much money, but only gave a little to her relatives, which was like giving money to beggars, and was a bit disrespectful to her relatives.

Instead of strengthening family ties, it caused a lot of dissatisfaction and ridicule, and people thought that they didn't need relatives anymore when they had money.

Especially from her sister-in-law's side, there are even more strange things.

This also made her less and less willing to go to her parents' home.

For her, half of the money she had was given to her parents' home, but they were still not satisfied. This appetite was too big and could never be satisfied.

To her relatives from her mother's side, she was clearly worth hundreds of millions, but she only gave them a little bit and didn't even pay attention to them.

Both sides are unhappy and tired of seeing each other, so it is better not to meet.

As for her parents' suggestion to sell the stocks in her hands, she would not agree - although she had a lot of Feng'an Group stocks in her hands, except for a small portion, most of them were promised to Cai Qixiang to be left to her son.

At that time, when Cai Qixiang gave her those shares, he signed a legally binding contract with her. If she violated this contract, she would be breaking the law.

Subjectively, she also did not want to give the property belonging to her own children to her relatives on her mother's side.

This led to irreconcilable conflicts between her and her natal family, and the conflicts became increasingly serious.

Now she returns to China just to visit her parents and give them some financial support.

As for other relatives, don't worry about them.

This time when she went back to her mother's home, she didn't even see her brother and sister-in-law, and then she returned to Guangzhou.

Now in her mind, Cai Qixiang's image is much better than those of her relatives from her mother's side.

Now she takes good care of Cai Qixiang.

Even Ai Lili, her sister-in-law, felt sorry for her and said to Yan Xin in private:

"I don't know what my father was thinking when he treated her like that. He is now bedridden, but it was this daughter-in-law who came back from abroad to take care of him despite the past grudges."

It is difficult to evaluate Yan Xin. As someone who knows the truth, he feels very complicated when hearing such a statement.

He also lamented that the world is unpredictable and that the changes are so great, so great that it is beyond his imagination.

Shu Yi is also a person without business talent. Although he is a major shareholder of Feng'an Group, he has never participated in the company's decision-making. Like Cai Qixiang, he has entrusted his voting rights to Ai Lili.

The combined number of shares she and Cai Qixiang own is quite a lot, even more than the shares owned by Feng Chen, the second largest shareholder of Feng'an Group.

Ai Lili also owns a lot of company shares, and with the authorization of the father-in-law and daughter-in-law, she also has a lot of say in the board of directors.

The company's management also has a certain amount of shares. Each individual holds a small amount, but when added together, it is not a small number.

These senior executives basically support Ai Lili as the president of the group - those who do not support her will find it difficult to continue working in senior positions.

She and Yan Xin are one and the same, and they support each other on the board of directors.

Together with Yan Xin's brother-in-law Feng Chen, the top three shareholders of Feng'an Group are natural allies.

The fourth largest shareholder of the group, Jiang Manyun, holds shares on behalf of Cui Shao's family. This family is also considered to be Yan Xin's allies. They do not participate in the company's decision-making, but support Yan Xin's decisions.

This alliance of theirs owns almost half of the group's shares and has a very firm control over the company.

The number of Feng'an Group shares held by Jiang Manyun is not as many as when the company was first listed. In the past two years, she sold some of them and cashed out more than 1 billion yuan.

Of course, the money did not end up in her hands, nor in Cui Shao's hands, but went somewhere else.

Cui Shao was quite unhappy about this selling behavior. When he came to Yangcheng in July, he complained to Yan Xin:
"I told them that Feng'an Group is a very promising company and that President Yan is a very visionary entrepreneur. I told them to hold on to their stocks because they would be worth more in the future. But they just didn't believe it and insisted on cashing out. Well, the result is that they sold at a low price. Now the stock has appreciated so much, and they have lost at least 200 to 300 million!"

The "they" he mentioned, of course, refers to the real owners of those stocks, and they are also the ones who can safeguard the development of Feng'an Group.

People have given us so much convenience, and it's time to reap the rewards.

They cashed out over 1 billion yuan, and the value of the Feng'an Group's shares they held was even more than 10 billion yuan. The rewards for their protection were quite generous.

Those rewards were given to the entire family, and Jiang Manyun was just the one who was put forward in the open.

The same goes for Cui Shao. He can provide opinions but does not have the decision-making power.

He also got a small share of the 1 billion yuan in cash, but not even one-tenth of it.

Most of the money became resources to support his cousin in the family.

That's how the ten billion is.

The remaining stocks, which will generate more than 10 billion yuan in wealth after cashing out, will most likely be distributed in the same way.

This made him quite depressed. He felt that what he was given was too little and that his family was a little too partial.

No matter what, they are the apparent holders, so if they don’t ask for half, they should at least give them half of the other half, right?

The fact is that it is not even one-tenth.

It's so heartbreaking.

The good thing is that the shares of Starlight Culture Communication Company he holds belong to him, as that was a promise made by his family.

This was something he got for nothing. It was not a resource found by his family, but a benefit he fought for from Yan Xin. He introduced the other partners to Yan Xin.

Now that the Starlight short video platform is getting better and better, he is very excited and hopes that the company can go public earlier to realize his dream of becoming a billionaire.

This platform is getting bigger and bigger, its ability to make money is getting stronger and stronger, and its influence on public opinion is also getting greater and greater.

His status in the family is also improving rapidly.

His highly respected grandfather once sighed: "This child, a fool has good fortune!"

The future star of the family has become much nicer to him - he is a direct descendant and they didn't think much of him before.

Every time he came to Guangzhou, his main thing to do was to inspect the live broadcast base of Starlight Culture Communication Company.

There are not only many beautiful and open-minded female anchors there, but also his dream of becoming a super rich man.

The international version of Starlight Short Video was launched in the United States at the beginning of this year. It spent a lot of money on promotion, signed some big internet celebrities to join, and developed some novel gameplay. It has many exciting programs and now has a certain momentum, with nearly 10 million downloads.

Of course, the size cannot be compared with the domestic version, it is just a younger brother.

However, for a new app to have such performance in overseas markets is already very good.

But at the beginning, the people who were attracted were just some old perverts.

Cui Shao has downloaded this software and often uses it when he is abroad.

Unfortunately, it cannot be downloaded in China, and domestic mobile phone numbers cannot be used to log in.

Because some programs are too intense, they are not suitable for domestic laws and regulations.

If you want to watch those exciting shows, you have to go abroad.

This is also a software for foreign users.

There is also a live broadcast base at the overseas headquarters. Cui Shao has also been there. Most of the people there are beautiful girls with blonde hair and blue eyes.

But he didn't dare to do anything wrong over there - not because he was inferior, but because he was afraid that foreign girls were too open and unclean and would make him sick.

For him, this side is more reassuring.

The female anchors here are relatively open-minded, but at least under normal circumstances, they only accompany the top guys on the list, and their private lives are not that messy.

Cui Shao came to Guangzhou this time and stayed for more than ten days, seven of which he lived in the live broadcast base.

I had a few meals with Yan Xin and also visited Cai Qixiang.

Seeing Cai Qixiang become like that, he felt very emotional. He felt that life was too short and one should enjoy life while he can live it to the fullest.

He asked Yan Xin when and where he planned to take Starlight Culture Communication Company public.

His personal opinion is to list in the United States because it is the largest capital market.

But Yan Xin disagreed:

"Our platform is also a public opinion platform. Listing in the United States and letting foreigners control our public opinion is not a very good choice. I still think it is better to list in Hong Kong."

As for why it is not listed on the A-share market, there is no need to explain.

He doesn't want to always be involved in the battle to defend 3000 points.
