Volume 5: Blossom and Fruit 2018 Chapter 916
However, the good times did not last long, and what was supposed to happen would eventually happen.
The rolling wheel will never be shaken by personal will, nor will it change direction because of the butterfly effect.
With the great commander on the other side of the ocean in power.
Even from a historical perspective, it is still rare.
It is also easy to remind people of the confrontation between the two most powerful countries in human history in the last century!
It was also during the Cold War that human civilization made great strides forward at an incredible speed and achieved incredible great achievements such as the moon landing.
It is still hard to imagine today, it is a hymn to human courage.
History is always surprisingly similar and keeps repeating itself, this moment is just like that moment.
The impact generated by the center of the vortex began to spread to all industries, leaving no one unaffected.
Even if it was just a test, it had already exceeded the expectations of the entire market, and the resulting violent shocks had far-reaching impacts.
For a time, there was a panic in the air and many investors became frightened and began to choose to stand aside. Pessimism immediately spread to the entire market and the mood was very depressed.
The term "new Cold War" then began to spread rapidly in the mainstream public opinion field and was recognized by the general public.
However, even the big brother in its heyday was ultimately defeated in the Cold War and ended up disintegrating, becoming the half-dead bear it is today.
And it has created the transcendent status of the world's only superpower.
However, both mainstream public opinion and the general public are clearly pessimistic about this, and it would not be an exaggeration to even call it despair.
After all, even the top big brother was not spared, let alone us today?
At that time, such views once dominated the mainstream, but times have changed and things are no longer the same as before.
Compared to the powerlessness and despair of the last century, the situation today has undoubtedly undergone earth-shaking changes...
For Zhou Dongsheng, being once again in the midst of this great wave of the times that is destined to have far-reaching influence, the feeling this time is obviously completely different.
After all, Zhou Dongsheng's perspective and height this time allow him to see more things!
Moreover, as a reborn person, his perspective can even allow him to see through the huge waves and see waves higher than the last one sweeping towards him.
It is no exaggeration to say that every year now is the best year for the next ten years.
Zhou Dongsheng has . Therefore, compared with the negative and pessimistic sentiments that permeate the mainstream public opinion, Zhou Dongsheng is quite indifferent.
Everything has just begun. This is just the beginning. Big things are yet to come.
However, there is really not much time left for me. At most, there is only about a year or two left.
For a native local, the fear of insufficient firepower is a trait that is deeply ingrained in his bones and is absolutely deep-rooted.
Therefore, under Zhou Dongsheng's deliberate manipulation, both the huge Dongsheng Group and the newly established second private equity fund with hundreds of billions of US dollars in funds are carrying out related work in an orderly manner along the established track.
Among them, from raw materials and production lines to the corresponding supply chain system, everything can be said to be smooth sailing under the power of cash.
They even use overseas trading companies, under the name of medical companies, to make large purchases in overseas markets, and then ship the goods back to China as a matter of course.
It was natural to store the supplies in Jiangcheng area under the name of the laboratory that had been promised before.
The only unreasonable thing is that for a mere biological laboratory, this amount of materials is more than 100 million, and it may take forever to use them up.
In order to make everything more reasonable, the wealthy Zhou Dongsheng brought in the booming Pinduoduo, under the pretext of further developing the market in lower-tier cities and building an integrated online and offline shopping platform!
Since the plan is to target lower-tier cities, it is only natural to avoid super first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, while also being able to avoid their limelight.
After all, Alibaba, the e-commerce big brother, also owns a large e-commerce supermarket with a high market share. It is obviously not an easy task to get a piece of the pie from it.
To this end, continuing Pinduoduo's strategy of "surrounding the cities from the countryside" is naturally the best way. However, after Pinduoduo landed on Nasdaq, it is no longer the same as before.
As a new e-commerce giant with a market value of over 30 billion US dollars, this round of IPO successfully raised more than 2 billion US dollars, which shows that it is also wealthy and has ample funds.
And with the entire sinking market as its rear base, Pinduoduo has obviously completed the first half of its strategic layout. What it needs to do next is undoubtedly to move forward step by step towards the second half.
That is to march towards the city!
In the past, Pinduoduo was positioned in the sinking market outside the Fourth Ring Road. Now that it has been successfully listed, it is the time to strengthen its manpower and prepare for battle. Naturally, it is time to launch a counterattack.
A little shock to consumers within the Fourth Ring Road.
In order to achieve his goal, Zhou Dongsheng did not hesitate to take out the trump card "10 billion subsidies" in advance. As the second largest shareholder of the company, Zhou Dongsheng's proposal naturally went straight to the ears of the top leaders and had a significant effect.
As a key figure who plays a role at all times in the development of Pinxixi, Zhou Dongsheng's suggestions are naturally highly valued by Huang Zheng.
Even if Zhou Dongsheng only gave a rough draft, it still seemed to be the real thing under the support of his superb deception skills.
With the successful listing in the United States, it is a great opportunity for Pinxixi to reverse its image. If not now, when?
With the name of "10 billion subsidies", consumers are given a little price shock, letting them know that on Pinxixi, they can not only buy small commodities with good quality and low prices, but also buy affordable electronic products...
With Zhou Dongsheng's exaggerated boasting, and the fact that he had billions of dollars in cash, it was naturally not difficult to make Huang Zheng fall in love with him.
After all, the halos that Zhou Dongsheng has piled up around him are already quite persuasive in themselves, and coupled with his huge financial resources, they are undoubtedly a very heavy weight.
If human hearts were like a scale, Zhou Dongsheng's weight would be enough to instantly make the scale lose balance and tilt towards his side.
Therefore, under the leadership of Zhou Dongsheng, not only was the "10 billion subsidies" put on the agenda nearly two years in advance, but even the online supermarket project that Pinxixi had never set foot in before also began to be planned in advance.
Among them, the first round of start-up funds was provided by Dongsheng Group and Pinxixi, in order to shift the development strategy of super first-tier cities and focus on a number of new first-tier cities with greater development potential, among which Jiangcheng was naturally included.
If we want to further realize the linkage between online supermarkets and offline stores, warehousing is naturally a hurdle that cannot be avoided. At the same time, warehousing costs are also the most expensive expense in this project.
But starting a business is bound to cost money, so just spend it first and worry about it later.
Considering the current revenue capacity of Dongsheng Group, it is naturally a drop in the bucket and not worth mentioning. After all, with the popularity of the chicken-eating mobile game, its powerful money-making ability has been fully demonstrated!
Not only does it dominate the domestic market, but its revenue in overseas markets is also considerable. It is no exaggeration to say that it is making a fortune every day.
Although as the chicken-eating craze swept the world, a large number of competing products with the same theme inevitably appeared and began to divert the profits of the chicken-eating game, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, as the pioneer, still sits firmly in the top spot.
And with the further support of the e-sports league system, even though Lian Po is old, he still has the strength to fight.
And when everything was going according to plan, Zhou Dongsheng felt that he had done his best to have a clear conscience.
Zhou Dongsheng does not want to miss the remaining year and a half of good time. It is also time to appreciate the beautiful mountains and rivers of the motherland and the magnificent and colorful world.
It is a good time to travel and enjoy the scenery while everything is still underway.
Since Zhou Dongsheng wants to travel, he naturally needs to be armed to the teeth. In addition to the RV, a nanny car for his bodyguards is also indispensable, and the off-road vehicle leading the way must not be bad either.
Of course, having a luxuriously equipped car fleet alone is not enough. After all, traveling is only enjoyable if you are accompanied by a beautiful woman.
As for who to choose?
Zhou Dongsheng was unable to make a decision for a moment, so he simply chose the principle of proximity and saw whatever he went to.
Later, on a quiet night, a luxury convoy traveled in a low-key manner, and the first stop was to go along the legendary Line 318, just as an appetizer.
As for Dongsheng Investment, with the current size of funds, it is obviously impossible to play any micro-management. All it needs to do is follow the established goals configured by Zhou Dongsheng and invest heavily in those well-known blue-chip stocks.
Relying on the high-quality assets in the market that are like a stabilizing force, as long as you hold them for a long time, you can also easily stay at the forefront of the market.
After all, long-term holding is indeed an eternal truth throughout the entire investment market. Even if you just choose to hold your positions, it is enough to outperform more than half of the investors in the market.
I don't know how many investors are addicted to the pleasure of operation. After a few blind operations, they look back and find that they have lost more than half of their money. Their dreams of getting rich overnight have instantly changed to just making back their investment (funny).
Zhou Dongsheng naturally has a deep understanding of this. It is enough to just lie on high-quality assets and enjoy the dividends of the times.
Afterwards, Zhou Dongsheng naturally became a hands-off boss and once again disappeared from the mainstream vision, staying away from the hustle and bustle of the world.
However, even though Zhou Dongsheng is no longer in the world, his legend is still circulating in the world.
Some netizens claimed that they had encountered a luxury convoy on the 318 Sichuan-Tibet Highway. While the convoy was resting, they saw Zhou Dongsheng and Ni Ni traveling together. The two were flirting and very close...
Some netizens said that they also encountered Zhou Dongsheng in front of the Prada Palace, but the beauty next to him became the top internet celebrity Mu Ziqi...
Some time later, across the vast mountains and rivers of the motherland, in the Xisha Islands far above the South China Sea, some tourists claimed to have seen Zhou Dongsheng fishing comfortably on the deck of a luxury yacht, and even greeting the tourists...
After a while, netizens' encounters with Zhou Dongsheng had crossed national borders and they began to find his footprints all over the world, and the beauties around him seemed to be different every time.
There were even some beautiful blondes among them. For a time, Zhou Dongsheng's romantic and happy life became the object of envy, jealousy and hatred for many netizens.
Compared with the many girlfriends of Principal Wang that were talked about before, Zhou Dongsheng's romantic affairs are obviously even more numerous and have become a hot topic for many netizens after dinner.
In addition, a lot of speculation has arisen about Zhou Dongsheng's sudden decision to retire and disappear from the public opinion field.
Some people say that Zhou Dongsheng was warned by relevant departments because he acted too high-profile , while others feel that Zhou Dongsheng was able to accumulate such astonishing wealth in such a short period of time, and there must be something shady behind it.
Now that the truth has been revealed, he has no choice but to keep himself safe.
There were countless statements like this, but Zhou Dongsheng just laughed them off and made no comment. Only today did he understand what it meant that a summer insect cannot talk about ice.
Before the incident happened, even if Zhou Dongsheng told the truth, he would definitely be regarded as a madman.
After all, the future is unpredictable, and it is impossible for people to predict the consequences of their actions.
Just like most of the decisions that change our lives, they are just small decisions made by chance on an ordinary day. There are no sudden visions, and there will be no grand background music playing.
But from this moment on, without you realizing it, the turning point of your life has quietly led you to another path. Until many years later, when you suddenly wake up and look back, you realize that the bullet you fired at the beginning has arrived as promised.
Right between the eyebrows, a sudden enlightenment!
…
Spring goes and autumn comes, and another year has passed.
On an ordinary morning, the sun was shining brightly. Zhou Dongsheng lay comfortably on a recliner, gazing at the sea view where the sea and sky merged into one, completely forgetting which sea he was drifting on.
The blonde beauty next to him glanced at him seductively and fed some fruit to Zhou Dongsheng.
The cell phone next to me suddenly dinged twice, indicating that two messages had been received.
"According to foreign media reports, in August, a mysterious e-cigarette pneumonia was raging in Wisconsin. Most of the patients had a history of e-cigarette smoking and had the same symptoms. Therefore, whether e-cigarettes are really healthier and safer has become the focus of public controversy..."
Zhou Dongsheng was shocked. The gears of fate had already started turning...
"Old Qin, let Old George go back home. It's time for us to return home..." In the past year or so, except for traveling, Zhou Dongsheng had been secretly carrying out a series of preparations, and he had been ready for battle and could be used at any time.
“Okay boss!”
At this time, Zhou Dongsheng remembered that he had received a text message. He casually flipped through his phone, his eyes suddenly fixed, and he sat up suddenly.
"I am pregnant……"
