Chapter 690: The Great Bull Market Has Arrived
With the popularity of the TV series 《Chinese Paladin》, Wen Wan's single 《Always Very Quiet》 experienced a second surge in popularity, becoming a hit across the country.
At the same time, in early April, Feifan Media announced a major news to the media.
Feifan Media is currently preparing to produce its first big-screen movie.
The company has already been in contact with Hong Kong director Stanley Tong and international superstar Jackie Chan.
Both parties have agreed to join the project.
Our company's artist Wen Wan will play the lead female role in the film.
This film will be a star-studded big-budget production.
How big? The manager of Feifan Media directly announced to the media below:
An initial investment of 200 million yuan! With more to be added later if needed.
This news completely exploded on the internet.
Wen Wan, Jackie Chan, a powerful combination. Just hearing these two names filled people with anticipation for the movie.
And Feifan Media actually announced an investment of 200 million yuan.
This is 2005, after all.
This can definitely be considered a genuine big move.
It can be said that the movie 《The Myth》 became popular before it was even released, filling countless movie fans with anticipation from the moment it was announced.
At the end of April, Wen Wan left Yunhai to prepare to enter the 《The Myth》 crew, and Chen Fan personally went to see her off.
Chen Fan's plan for her was to first shoot 《The Myth》, then shoot 《Perhaps Love》, aiming to have Wen Wan completely dominate domestic cinemas in the second half of the year.
Being a big star, the two couldn't appear in public together, so Chen Fan could only spend this little time alone with her in the car.
Seeing Wen Wan constantly lowering her head to read the script, Chen Fan glanced at the agent sitting in the front passenger seat and spoke softly.
"You don't need to push yourself so hard. If you're tired, you can rest after finishing this movie."
Wen Wan looked up and smiled gently.
This woman's eyes curved like crescent moons when she smiled, so Chen Fan loved to see Wen Wan smile. It gave people a very comfortable feeling.
"The boss has arranged tasks for me, of course I have to complete them."
Chen Fan shook his head: "Still, you should prioritize your health. Rest when you're tired."
"I won't be," Wen Wan shook her head with a smile: "I love making movies, and I want to make several good films while I still have the energy."
Then she suddenly lowered her voice, speaking so that only the two of them could hear.
"And... and I really like the plan you told me about last time."
"If possible, I'd like to win an international award before I take a break."
Chen Fan smiled, "Since you like it, let's make it a deal then."
"Let's aim for you to win an Oscar for Best Actress in a few years, and then you can retire and rest after getting the big award."
"Sounds good."
Wen Wan smiled softly. She had no doubt about the difficulty of a Chinese person winning an Oscar for Best Actress.
Because Chen Fan said it, she trusted him completely.
"What about you? What are your plans for the future?"
Chen Fan thought for a moment and said: "I don't have any grand ambitions."
"I plan to achieve financial freedom before I'm 30, then buy a house in the south with a view of the sea and a garden full of flowers, to live a good life with my wife."
Wen Wan nodded with a smile.
"That's a nice wish."
"When you buy your house, be sure to let me know. I can buy a house next to yours and be your neighbor."
Chen Fan smiled: "It's a deal."
After sending Wen Wan off, Chen Fan was left without someone to talk to heart-to-heart.
During this time, news came from his hometown.
His second aunt and the others had found a location to open a supermarket.
After discussion, no one in the three families objected.
And on the phone, Chen Fan's parents also said they had gone to see the location, which was very close to the city center and quite good.
Since that was the case, Chen Fan didn't ask much more and directly transferred the money over.
He transferred a total of 2.5 million yuan.
Of that, 500,000 yuan was divided: 300,000 yuan to be split among the three families' children to open shops, and 200,000 yuan for his parents' living expenses.
The remaining 2 million yuan was to be used for opening the supermarket.
After transferring the money, Chen Fan didn't worry about it anymore.
He didn't have time to concern himself with these matters.
Because there were more important things waiting for Chen Fan.
An opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared.
The super bull market had arrived.
There have been five super bull markets in domestic history.
They were in 1991-1993, 1994-2001, 2005-2007, 2009, and 2014-2015.
Among them, in 2005, the index fell from the New Year's opening, then hit bottom at 998 points before rising to a super bull market of 6000 points.
Some people summarized this bull market as the market being activated by the split-share structure reform.
Looking at the "Five Golden Flowers" (coal, steel, automobiles, banks, electricity) that drove the market, it was closely related to the booming economy at the time.
However, this bull market later ended due to the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis.
It can be said that historically, anyone who seized this opportunity made a fortune.
Even if you were just a novice, if you invested money in the stock market during this period, you could easily catch a couple of big fish.
Chen Fan had been preparing for this moment for too long.
First was the capital. He had always held at least 700 million yuan of personal funds without touching them.
This was almost all the savings he had accumulated from his entrepreneurship during his four years of university.
Currently, the company was operating smoothly, especially Feifan Technology, which was still continuously creating profits for Chen Fan.
So Ruofan Group had no financial pressure at all.
Therefore, this time, Chen Fan prepared to take a big gamble, directly investing all of his personal funds of over 700 million yuan into the stock market.
Without going to extremes, nothing can be accomplished.
This was indeed a big gamble.
Chen Fan was betting that the super bull market from his previous life would appear again.
Finally, history repeated itself successfully, and Chen Fan's bet paid off.
As time entered June, the great bull market began.
It wasn't until this moment that Chen Fan truly experienced what it meant to feel the thrill of a roller coaster ride.
In his previous life, although he knew about the bull market, he had no funds at that time and could only be an observer.
But now, Chen Fan was participating in this as an insider.
That sense of tension and excitement, even for someone who had lived two lives, still made Chen Fan's mouth dry and his heart race.
It turned out that money really could turn into a string of numbers.
During this period, even with Chen Fan's strong willpower, he almost lost himself in the stock market several times.
During this time, every fluctuation in the stock market meant his money was increasing by no small amount.
Fortunately, in the end, Chen Fan still managed to control himself with great determination.
He suppressed his desires and didn't wait for the highest point to sell. Instead, he chose to sell his stocks at a suitable position in advance, cashing out and walking away.
At this point, Chen Fan's funds had achieved a leap in growth.
However, this kind of news was something he could only know by himself and would never tell anyone.
If even a bit of information leaked out, when investigated, Chen Fan's entry and exit timing would be found to be too precise. It would be hard not to attract the attention of relevant departments.
So, he could only keep a low profile.
After obtaining the funds, Chen Fan didn't rest at all and immediately took out a portion of the money to start buying stocks in large quantities.
Baidu, Tencent, Maotai, Apple, Amazon... In short, Chen Fan bought all the stocks he was familiar with in his mind.
After buying these stocks, he didn't plan to sell them. He would hold onto them.
Even if there were future changes, company bankruptcies, or losses, with these stocks, he and Su Ruochu could live worry-free for the rest of their lives.
