Chapter 155 The Incense Burner of Three Generations of Single Heirs
Chapter 155 The Incense Burner of Three Generations of Single Heirs
Jinling, Zijinshan Manor, study.
On the large mahogany desk, a black and white ultrasound report lay quietly.
The small, blurry shadow on the list was like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples in Li Feng's heart.
Li Feng leaned back in the boss's chair, his gaze lingering on the image circled in red.
Counting the days, it has been almost four years since his rebirth, and his current body is almost twenty-seven years old.
If you include the thirty-nine years he wasted in his previous life, his soul is actually forty-three years old.
This is the first time in his two lifetimes that he will truly become a father.
"Three generations of only sons carrying on the family line..."
Li Feng murmured to himself.
Looking back on her past life, she realized that she hadn't been able to leave any children for her family, not even when she died suddenly on a snowy night in the street.
His parents waited anxiously in the countryside, and their regretful and resentful eyes were the deepest pain in his midnight dreams.
And now, all of this has finally been resolved.
He wasn't a naive person, and he certainly wouldn't have the absurd idea of choosing only one woman out of a thousand because Liu Yifei was pregnant.
In this vast capitalist empire, Liu Yifei was ultimately just one of the spoils he used to decorate his image.
However, no matter how many women he changes, this child is still his flesh and blood, carrying the blood of the Li family!
With his wealth expanding to this point, he naturally needed to plan ahead regarding his bloodline and inheritance.
As for how to handle Liu Yifei's and the child's identities?
There are many successful precedents in this industry.
"That old man from Wahaha, didn't he also have a bunch of illegitimate children, but he kept it a secret his whole life? And what about some female celebrities who raised their illegitimate children like younger brothers? Not to mention all those who were cuckolded."
Li Feng doesn't have a penchant for cuckolding, but as long as he has enough capital, there's nothing in this world that can hold him back!
Once this child is born, he will pave a broad road for him with his immense wealth!
"Xinyu," Li Feng called out without looking up.
Zhang Xinyu, who had been standing by the desk with a complicated look in her eyes, suddenly trembled and quickly concealed the turmoil in her eyes.
"Boss, I'm here."
"Go, use an offshore company shell to set up a family private equity fund in Hong Kong."
"Every month, a fixed amount of US$10 million will be allocated from the group's overseas net profits to this fund account. Let's set the total amount at US$300 million for now."
"This money will serve as a fund for that child's growth and education, and you will have full authority to manage it. Without my signature, no one, including Liu Yifei, has the right to use this money."
Three hundred million US dollars! That's nearly two billion RMB!
Upon hearing this number, Zhang Xinyu's hand holding the folder trembled slightly.
Was she jealous? Of course she was!
She had been working for her boss for three years, and although he never used contraception, she still hadn't gotten pregnant.
But Liu Yifei, this woman who appeared out of nowhere, was instantly captivated!
Zhang Xinyu knew very well that the boss's attitude towards Liu Yifei was still one of condescending control.
But with this child, things really change!
This is the boss's first child! In this vast business empire, once the drama of a mother gaining status through her son takes place, even a powerful maid like her would likely have her position shaken.
However, even if Zhang Xinyu had a hundred times the courage, she wouldn't dare to say a word at this moment.
"Okay, boss, I'll have the legal and overseas finance departments handle it right away," Zhang Xinyu replied obediently, bowing her head.
"besides."
Li Feng picked up a pen and signed his name on a report from the film and television department. "Notify Lao Han to speed up the preparations for the 'Ode to Joy' production team."
"Once filming begins, the production team must prioritize shooting all scenes and close-ups involving Liu Yifei! Her scenes must be completed within two months!"
"Understood, boss. I'll personally follow up on the scheduling of the cast list for 'Ode to Joy'."
Zhang Xinyu respectfully withdrew from the study.
In this empire, the boss's bloodline cannot be lost, and she knows what she must do.
……
at the same time.
Penguin Core Conference Room, top floor of Fiyta Building, Nanshan District, Shenzhen.
"Bang!"
A purple clay teacup was smashed on the floor, spilling tea everywhere!
The usually refined Pony Ma, his face ashen, pointed at the executives of IEG Interactive Entertainment Group on either side of the conference table, his anger barely contained!
"Can someone explain to me why this is happening?!"
"We poured all our resources across all channels and spent hundreds of millions promoting 'Dream of the Three Kingdoms'! Why has it been so thoroughly outmatched by Haofeng's 'League of Legends' in the past few months?!"
"Online player count halved! A massive exodus of active players! The internet cafe base we painstakingly built up is now completely taken over by those League of Legends players!"
"Didn't you guys confidently tell me before that MOBA games can't make money without selling numerical values, and that players would definitely come back?! Where are you now?!"
Faced with Pony Ma's furious outburst, the entire conference room fell silent, and all the game executives lowered their heads, sweating profusely.
A few months ago, that was indeed their assessment.
But who would have thought that Li Feng of Haofeng Network was an unreasonable madman!
He doesn't sell numerical values, but he turned the game into a social currency!
Not only did he promote fair competition within the game, but what's even more terrifying is the "e-sports frenzy" he sparked across the entire internet!
The executive in charge of data analysis swallowed hard and stood up with a stiff upper lip:
"Mr. Ma... Haofeng's League of Legends is no longer just a simple game. They've successfully linked it with the esports spirit of 'winning glory for the country'!"
"Especially after SKY's documentary aired, coupled with their 'City Heroes Championship,' young people in China now take pride in playing League of Legends, feeling that it is the real skill competition."
"And our game 'Dream of the Three Kingdoms'... because it sells attribute wings and VIP status in the in-game store, it's been boycotted and ridiculed by online players... They say we're... ripping off players and undermining the fairness of the competition..."
Upon hearing the words "undermining fairness" and "harvesting the韭菜 (a metaphor for exploiting others)," Pony Ma was so angry he almost fainted.
Isn't this what Tencent has always done?! Everyone's just trying to make money, so why do netizens suddenly have such high standards when it comes to League of Legends?!
"They've been brainwashed! Players across the entire internet have been brainwashed by the opinions expressed on Haofeng's Weibo!"
Pony Ma finally understood that Li Feng's risky move of "selling skins instead of stats" might seem like a loss in the early stages, but the returns were explosive in terms of capturing users' minds and increasing their online time!
"We can't keep taking hits like this!" A resolute glint flashed in Pony's eyes.
"Since the players want fairness, then let's give them fairness!"
"Notify the operations teams of 'Dream of the Three Kingdoms' and 'Qifan'!"
"Remove all items with attribute bonuses from the shop immediately!"
"Cancel all those paid VIP privileges and convert them all into cosmetic effects compensation for veteran players! No matter how many whales we lose, we must retain our ordinary players!"
Upon hearing this, IEG's executives were shocked!
"Mr. Ma! This cuts off more than 70% of our revenue stream for these two games! Those big-spending players will cause an uproar!"
"If you don't cut your flesh, you'll die!" Pony Ma said through gritted teeth.
"If even the people are drained dry by Haofeng, who are we going to sell all those data items sitting rotten in the warehouse?!"
"Do as I say! Modify it exactly like League of Legends! Learn it flawlessly!"
It's not just about painfully cutting off one's own flesh.
Pony Ma has already recognized the immeasurable and terrifying potential of MOBA games in the future PC game market.
"besides!"
Pony Ma turned his gaze to the head of the overseas investment department, "Is Valve currently looking for a domestic distributor for their official sequel to DotA, Dota 2?"
The head of the overseas investment department quickly nodded: "Yes, Mr. Ma, Valve and IceFrog have already started the DOTA2 project. Several major domestic companies are currently in contact with them, wanting to acquire the distribution rights."
"Go and talk to them! No matter the cost!"
"Tell Valve that Tencent is willing to offer the highest agency fee! And they can also invest in their studio!"
"Now that League of Legends has become a force to be reckoned with, Tencent must secure the legitimate gold standard of Dota 2! Only by leveraging the strengths of Dota 2 can they truly compete with Haofeng Network in the PC gaming arena!"
