Chapter 1385 The Whereabouts of the Ferryman
Shi Lei took his parents to the United States, and of course they lived in a house that was completely his.
Jackman even specially came to visit from his new house for this purpose, and he was a little embarrassed when they met.
Shi Lei helped him tide over the difficulties, and now Jackman has returned to the Jackman he was before. Although the lost money has still not been recovered, it has not affected the operation of his business.
However, nearly half a year has passed since Jackman promised Shi Lei, but he still hasn't fulfilled it.
This is somewhat embarrassing.
Shi Lei didn't care. After all, he knew very well that if he expected Jackman to find someone who couldn't even find the Eye of Darkness, it would only be one more way. It's normal not to be able to find it, but it's an unexpected surprise to be able to find it.
Moreover, Shi Lei knew very well that Jackman probably hoped to find the ferryman more than he did. Jackman and the people from the two European and American consortiums also counted on the more than 100 billion US dollars that the ferryman had that no longer existed.
Seeing Jackman's ashamed look, Shi Lei couldn't bear it, but he really couldn't tell Jackman the truth.
To be honest, Shi Lei didn't know the whereabouts of the more than 100 billion. This is related to multi-party negotiations between Eyes of the Night and Russia and the European Union.
Of course, Shi Lei didn't ask about this. Anyway, the money would have nothing to do with him. He just estimated that it was impossible for the Russians to hand over such a large sum of money. In the end, it was three parties, three, one, thirty and one. of partition. It had only been half a year, and with such a huge sum, Shi Lei guessed that the three parties had not come to a conclusion yet.
After seeing Jackman off, Shi Zhongping and Gao Yan also walked around the entire house.
"Son, how much does such a big house cost?" Gao Yan is no longer the submissive woman she was. Her temperament has also undergone qualitative changes as her work progresses and her status increases.
Because of this, she probably knew about the high housing prices in this area, but when Shi Lei told her that the house was worth 100 million US dollars, Gao Yan was still shocked.
In the Atherton area, the median home price is $6 million. Median price is a very confusing term. For example, if there are a total of 100 houses in an area, the median price will be between the 50th and 50th house.
This calculation method can better reflect the transaction level of housing prices in an area, which means that at least half of the people living in this area can control the housing prices in this area.
However, for understanding the price of a specific house, the median price is not so reasonable, because the house with the highest price may completely deviate from the house prices in this area. Even in areas where the median price is only $100,000, there are still properties worth over $100 million.
Therefore, Gao Yan knew about the median price in the Atherton area. When he saw it was six million US dollars, he didn't take it seriously. After all, it was less than 40 million US dollars. With the large business she currently manages, she can afford such a residence.
Of course, she also knew that this house must be much more expensive than the median price. After all, both the land area and the house itself were not comparable to ordinary houses.
But Gao Yan would never have imagined that the price of this house would reach hundreds of millions of dollars. She thought it would only be worth twenty to thirty million dollars at most.
"Isn't that 700 million soft girl coins?" Gao Yan was a little surprised. She took Shi Lei's hand and said, "Son, tell me the truth, how much money do you have now?"
Shi Lei shrugged his shoulders and said, "I really haven't calculated it carefully."
Shi Zhongping smoothed things over: "Okay, only a professional accountant can calculate how much money my son has. Many of them are equity, not cash."
Shi Lei thought to himself, I actually have more than 10 billion US dollars in cash, but this obviously cannot be said, not even the Liberty Fund.
"According to the current market, my total assets are about 50 to 60 billion, but it may be much higher in two or three months. Qixuan will be listed soon. According to Qixuan's performance, after the listing, I dare not say that the market value will double, but it will definitely increase by at least 40 to 50%. I still have almost 30% of the shares in Qixuan, which will be 40 billion."
Gao Yan quickly calculated and said with emotion: "Now Qixuan's valuation has exceeded 100 billion?"
"It's almost the same."
"In other words, if Guang Qixuan is alone, you will now have 30 billion?"
Shi Lei nodded and clasped his fingers: "There is also Qixuan UK, which is now valued at 4 billion euros. I think it's almost 1 billion euros. Qixuan Australia is even closer, with a valuation of 2 billion US dollars. I'm less interested in that one." A little bit, it was invested by Qixuan Group, which is about a dozen points on my head, but it’s probably about 30 to 400 million U.S. dollars. Then there are Hong Kong Jugene and Ziqi Donglai. Hong Kong Ju has not changed much, and the product is not yet suitable for large-scale promotion. I don’t have a rough estimate of 2 to 3 billion. I haven’t asked Ziqidong Lai. I have a larger share. , the recent round B round has been quite controversial, but there is a consensus that the valuation is at least 30 billion, so the two together are worth over 10 billion.”
Gao Yan and Shi Zhongping looked at each other and suddenly laughed. Gao Yan said, "Your father and I have been working together for a long time, and it's not even a fraction of a cent from you?"
"I just caught up and copied it early. And I mainly do investment. In other aspects, I also lost a lot. You can't see it. Anyway, if nothing happens, I will definitely be worth 100 billion within this year." No more running."
Shi Zhongping sighed and said, "Then what are your mother and I busy with? Let's retire early."
"I have no objection, haha. If you two want to retire, just hand over the company to others." Shi Lei smiled.
Gao Yan rolled his eyes and said, "Retire for what? You ask me to retire now. I really don't know what to do when I have free time. How old are we two? It's still early for us to be sixty. We can't retire before we retire." Shi Zhongping, I warn you, you are not allowed to retreat, you have to work with me. Men become bad when they are rich, so don't do anything to me!"
Shi Zhongping hurriedly waved his hands and said, "How dare I? I can't cope with you alone. You're so messy, so why don't you torture me to death?"
"You really thought about it!" Gao Yan's eyebrows suddenly stood up.
Shi Zhongping hurriedly said that he smoked and ran to the back door. Gao Yan chased after him relentlessly, while Shi Lei looked at Zhi Le from behind.
In fact, just now Shi Lei just said it casually. If he really wants his parents to retire now, Shi Lei is really a little worried. No matter what, we must first defuse the time bomb that is the ferryman.
After thinking about it, Shi Lei called Wei Puti again and asked about the ferryman.
Wei Puti sighed and said, "He must have had a very bad life in the past six months. We found traces of him a few times, but the clues were quickly broken. He knew our methods too well, and he was I found out that it was because someone encountered him during a ground search and he was forced to go out of his way to reveal his whereabouts. But after he took care of those people, it was really difficult to find him. "
"Where were they all found?"
"It's all in China. The first time I discovered it was in a small county in the northeast. He was recognized by someone while having breakfast. But he led the person into a small alley, and then disappeared again. Then he started to appear several times in the country. I found it several times, once in Shandong, then back to the northeast, and then in the prairie, and the last time was near the Great Gobi. All in all, it was a very well-hidden place.”
