Chapter 282: twenty-two

On June 24, when William Chen woke up in the morning, he immediately noticed the difference.

Opening the interface of the future bank, he saw a new message:

Congratulations to the user for getting a birthday gift package, please check.

He just remembered that today is his birthday in this world, and after today, he will officially be 22 years old.

I feel that this future bank has not had any activities for a long time. I really forgot the feeling of opening a gift package. I feel a little excited when I think about it.

Chen William glanced at Paris and Miranda beside him. He was still asleep, so he got up, and after taking a bath, he prepared to open the birthday gift bag.

After a while of special effects, Chen William saw the items obtained in this [birthday gift pack]:

[Prediction Scroll (One-Time)] Fear comes from the unknown, and this scroll can give insight into the future running direction. Write down relevant questions that can be answered with "yes" or "no".

This is a good prop, which can predict the possibility of the future. For example, William Chen can write on it "Can Manchester United win the Premier League title next year?" Then he can get the answer of "Yes" or "No", so as to know the answer . It's just that you can only find the answer to this alternative question, and it's a one-time item, but it's still very useful when used properly.

[Experience Amplification Ring (Intermediate)] can greatly increase the comprehension speed of a certain skill. It will take effect when it is worn on the hand. The cumulative effective time is 72 hours. When the effective time is exhausted, the item will disappear automatically.

Chen William had obtained this ring before, but the [Experience Amplification Ring] at that time was a primary item, and this time I got an intermediate item. The difference is that the increased skill comprehension speed has changed from "larger" to "extremely large", and it is effective The duration has changed from 36 hours to 72 hours.

Last time, William Chen used [Experience Amplification Ring] to learn script creation and the production of the director's split-shot script, and the effect was still very good. How to use it this time, we have to think about it, and keep it for now.

[Jiaolongzhu] After taking it, it can increase its own water suitability and walk freely in the water like a swimming fish.

Uh, does this mean that after taking this, you can hold your breath longer in the water? Or can you swim faster? This William Chen is still unclear. His swimming level can only be said to be good, and it is far from a professional athlete. The difference is far, that is, the physical fitness is good.

But since this is a prop that can be used to improve his own attributes, Chen William is not polite, he took it out and swallowed it directly, and he didn't feel anything unusual, so he would slowly experience the changes when swimming in the future.

This time, the [birthday gift pack] is quite rich. Finally, there is [Liuwei Dihuang Wan], which I have taken several times. The effect is still very good, and Chen William took it immediately.

Today is William Chen's birthday. Many people have posted on social media to celebrate his birthday, and everyone around him has given him birthday gifts. It can only be said that opening the gifts feels good.

Of course, there are also ones that don't need to be dismantled. For example, William Chen has five more cars at once.

Uncle John Drey gave him an "Army One" on behalf of the Drey family. Of course, it was not the one of the American commander, but all the configurations were the same as the "Army One".

This Cadillac Presidential Limousine is built on the chassis of the C4500 truck. Its 6.6LV8Duramax supercharged diesel engine also comes from Topkick trucks. Its strong safety and thick body make its top speed only 96 kilometers per hour, and its fuel consumption per 100 kilometers reaches 30L.

The spacious cabin of this car can easily accommodate 6 passengers. The independent cabin is completely isolated from the cab, and the call with the driver in front is just one-touch communication. A premium audio system, hand-cut wood-grain veneer, and hand-stitched blue leather combine to create a distinguished interior ambience.

The most staggering thing is its safety. The armored door, which is about 20cm thick, weighs the same as the Boeing 757 door and can resist the attack of the shoulder-mounted bazooka. The reinforced chassis is also resistant to mines and bombs. Even if its run-flat tires are shot through, the vehicle can still run freely.

The car is equipped with an independent air circulation system against biological and chemical weapons and an advanced fire extinguishing system. It also has shotguns, infrared night vision cameras, tear gas delivery devices, etc., and can even be equipped with the owner's blood reserve.

Contacting the Dre family already knew that he was going to buy Palu, so this birthday gift was quite meaningful.

And Uncle Tom gave him the latest Bugatti Veyron sports car. This sports car has just been launched at the Dubai Motor Show and is worth $2.37 million. It has blue carbon fiber and polished aluminum trim and orange leather seats. , looks very beautiful.

Ivanta and Paris also gave him a new supercar, but they seemed to have a tacit understanding and chose different brands. Ivanta gave him McLaren F1; Paris It was giving him a Ferrari F50-

Well, these two are really right on each other.

The last one is a special edition Roadster two-door sports car that Musk built for him at Tesla.

Fortunately, William Chen's Long Island Manor is big enough, otherwise it would not be able to fit so many new cars.

At the same time, William Chen may also be the only celebrity to make headlines just because of his birthday, because as the fourth richest person in the world announced by Forbes, he is just 22 years old.

And according to the reports of many business magazines, Forbes had obviously underestimated Chen William's net worth by a lot. If it is evaluated according to the industry he owns now, then his net worth will definitely not be only the fourth position, but also with At his current age and development speed, in the most optimistic scenario, I am afraid that next year there will be a 22-year-old world's richest man.

It's no wonder that the Wall Street Journal gave William Chen its front page headline today, with the headline:

"William Chen is 22 years old today, and this age is likely to become a new record for the world's richest man!"

However, although the outside world seems to be very lively because of his birthday, today is not too busy for Chen William.

It was only at noon that I ate with Paris and the others, and then at night, I took Ivanta to hold a small birthday party with Uncle Tom, John Drey and others, even if it was over.

In addition, there are two good news for this day:

One is that after a long period of contact and negotiation, Meta Entertainment and Media finally completed the privatization of Valve at a total price of $500 million.

Originally wanted to acquire the company Valve, because Chen William took a fancy to Steam, a game platform under the Valve company that later became equivalent to the existence of a money printing machine.

However, the founder of this company, G Fatty, has never been willing to sell the company, so they had to buy shares from the secondary market and the company's investment institutions, while grinding **** the company's management and giving them out relaxed independent operating conditions.

In the end, the management, including Fat G, finally let go, and Meta Entertainment and Media obtained more than 70% of Valve's shares officially issued an offer to all shareholders to privatize the company, costing a total of about 5 $100 million to complete the overall acquisition of the company.

The other is that the team led by Erica has finally reached a final agreement with the Abex Group. The Meta Group will acquire their music division, namely Aihui Records, at a price of 1.5 billion US dollars. The record company took over.

After the completion of the acquisition, Ivory Records will be merged into EMI Asia.

According to the previous negotiation between William Chen and EMI Asia CEO Mai Dequn, the Japanese market part of EMI Records will merge with EMI Asia's Japanese business to become EMI Asia's Japan region. He will serve as the president of EMI Asia Japan, and concurrently serve as the vice president of EMI Asia.

As for the business of Aiwei Records in other regions, it is said that it is merged into the relevant departments of EMI Asia.

After that, EMI Asia will be divided into Greater China, South Korea, Japan, and Southeast Asia, and appointed vice presidents responsible for related affairs.

At present, the weakest area may be the South Korea region, and related acquisitions will be carried out next.
