Chapter 9 pit son(1/2)
Why did dad call suddenly?
According to his own past experience in this parallel world, it is reasonable and reasonable for my father to know that he has just become a director and started filming his first TV series.
Hearing his father's question, Zhang Hong replied casually: "It's nothing, everything is under control."
This is what happens when a person works hard alone.
When faced with concerned calls from parents, they always report good news instead of bad news.
What else can be done?
Vent your grievances and let your parents worry about you all the time?
"Dad, how are you doing with my mother? You said you were sent abroad on a business trip. I heard it's not peaceful there right now. Are you okay? And the living conditions are not that good in Africa?
Be careful about malaria."
In the 500-square-meter splendid office, the boring old father looked out the floor-to-ceiling window at the crowds of people downstairs. He picked up a cup of boring Dahongpao tea with a dull and boring expression: "It doesn't matter, we basically don't go out here, and there's nothing here.
Consumable…”
Nonsense, he has so much money that he doesn’t even know how to spend it.
When he first inherited his family's investment group, he even thought about losing the family!
He plans to use one year to destroy the family fortune that has been accumulated for more than a hundred years by several generations!
However, it only took less than half a year for him to despair.
In the stock market, which has been falling for three consecutive years and has just been shut down eight times in a row, he bought hundreds of stocks that were going green and were about to be delisted.
Then...it was five consecutive months of daily price limit!
By the way, today, twenty years later, the stock price of the worst one that was only one or two cents at the beginning has risen to one hundred and eighty-three yuan.
Then he desperately bought unfinished buildings.
As a result...because of the massive unemployment across the country, in order to increase domestic demand and provide jobs, the country decided to comprehensively improve infrastructure.
Then...the unfinished buildings were either turned into school district housing, rebuilt into a high-tech park, or a high-speed rail was built next to them.
There are even many places that are relatively remote, so the country has moved local departments here, and then the supporting facilities have caught up, and now... they have all taken off.
The land for several of the buildings he originally purchased was expropriated by the state, and many new buildings were built as compensation.
There is even one right opposite the office building...
Then civil servants bought and rented houses from him...
He feels that new technological concepts such as 3D technology, virtual reality technology, 5G network technology, VR technology, AR technology, including nuclear fusion and manned aviation are nonsense. They are basically just money-burning things, so he also invested a lot of money in the country.
High-tech.
As a result...these projects have come to fruition in recent years.
In order to thank him, the country even gave him trophies for "Top Ten Entrepreneurs in the Country" and "Patriotic Business Model".
If he hadn't specifically told people that he wanted to keep a low profile, he would have become famous all over the world.
Now he has no idea how much money he has.
He only knows that even if he buys yachts and private jets every day, his family's wealth will continue to grow.
People outside who don't reach a certain status don't even know his name.
However, many big entrepreneurs know that if there is a super awesome investor, as long as he is optimistic about the project, no matter how nonsense it is, the income will definitely be tripled in the end!
My daily job is to use this six-digit computer to fight landlords online in a boring office of 500 square meters.
Every time the landlord loses, he hates that he is not that landlord in reality.
And every time when farmers fight against landlords, he grits his teeth and wants to kill the landlords...
He didn't want his son to be like himself and despair of the world at the age of twenty-five.
So, now he called just to confirm his son's thoughts.
If his son really wanted to join the entertainment industry, he would not object, but he would definitely send a bunch of people to make arrangements for his son so that he would not be exposed to the dark side of the entertainment industry at all.
If his son is just having fun and has no interest in the entertainment industry at all, then he will use his right hand to break his son's fantasy!
"Son." He took a deep breath and asked cautiously: "Do you really want to be a TV drama director?"
Zhang Hong on the other side of the phone raised his eyebrows: "Dad, why are you asking this?"
Dad Zhang, also known as Zhang Hao, smiled: "No, Dad just thinks that the entertainment industry is too unstable, and there are unspoken rules and so on. I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it."
The name Zhang Hao was given to him by his father, Grandpa Zhang Hong.
He originally thought that he would be able to make a fortune by farming with hard-working hands and become well-off. Unexpectedly... this "hao" means local tycoon...
Zhang Hong sighed: "Indeed, I actually hate the entertainment industry. It's both unstable and dirty."
Just like the famous e-sports player 566 in his previous life, no...820 said, "No one in this circle is cleaner than anyone else."
When it comes to the entertainment industry, this sentence is just right.
Zhang Hao was puzzled: "Then why did you want to take the Beijing Film Academy exam in the first place? And now you are a director?"
This is something he has never understood.
My son has excelled in both reading and writing, respects his teachers, is united and friendly, and is a perfect example of a "child from other people's family".
Unexpectedly, when I was applying for college, I suddenly became willful.
I thought it was reverse psychology, but it doesn't look like it.
Later I thought I really loved this industry, but looking at it now, I don’t think so either.
So why?
"Why? I want to know too." Zhang Hong smiled.
However, he did not inherit his own memories of this parallel world, so he is destined not to know.
"But filming a TV series can be regarded as an explanation to my past self and director Sun Zheng. If this TV series doesn't make any progress, I will probably leave the entertainment industry and find a job as an ordinary office worker."
He doesn't want his parents, who are in their forties or fifties, to have to work outside to save money to buy a house.
For the sake of his so-called "dream", he doesn't care about his parents. He is not the kind of selfish person.
They are old and should have enjoyed happiness long ago.
If they buy a house in the future, they may have to use their wealth to pay for themselves as a down payment. Zhang Hong does not want to continue to live in peace and contentment until old age.
And he knows his level well.
How can a mere outsider make a good TV series?
In fact, judging from the reactions of Sun Zheng and Luo Yun after seeing his script, he already knew the result.
The reason why I insisted on finishing this TV series was just to give an explanation to my past self.
In this parallel world, he is already twenty-four years old. In his previous life, he had been severely beaten by society for five years and had long passed the age of dreaming.
There is nothing wrong with living a more realistic life sometimes.
Zhang Hao's eyes lit up on the other end of the phone: "You said you don't want to continue being a director?"
"Yes what's the matter?"
"It's nothing, that's fine, that's fine! Plain and simple is the real thing! Then you get busy first! I have to have a meeting here, and then I'll ask your mother to call you!"
"Well, please be safe."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Hao was filled with excitement!
He was quite conflicted when he originally resorted to the trick of "sending fresh meat to affect the reputation of Zhang Hong's TV series".
Does he think this is a bit of a trick on his son?
As a result, I didn’t expect that my son’s ambition was not here!
Then this TV series will definitely not allow my son to succeed!
What if the TV series takes off and my son thinks it "smells really good"?
It seems that the "Plan 2.0 about Zhang Hong being disappointed with the entertainment industry and becoming an ordinary office worker safely" can be implemented!
He made a phone call.
"Hey, Lao Lin."
Lao Lin is the boss of a company he invested in.
When the company was on the verge of bankruptcy, Lao Lin was ready to jump off the building. As a result, his investment brought the company back to life and even grew bigger!
Now all the business is going to Africa!
Therefore, the two of them can be regarded as a lifelong friendship.
If it’s not convenient for you to take action on your own, you’d be right to contact Lao Lin!
"Huh? Brother Zhang? If you have anything to say, just tell me! If it hadn't been for your investment, brother, I would have been doomed! And there are diamond mines in Africa! If you hadn't said that Africa has prospects, I wouldn't have discovered it in Africa.
To be continued...
