Chapter 323 Breaking Through $200 Million and Times Square

The latest US stock market was rolling below the NBC channel on the TV screen, and the financial anchor talked about the performance of the US stock market today. The Yahoo stock that was listed and traded today was the most talked about.

At this time, the Yahoo stock price that was rolling on the TV screen had broken through the 70 US dollar mark, and the current stock price was US dollars.

"Honey, what's wrong?" Hearing Li Xiaofan's exclamation, Tang Xinyi was awakened, and she got up and rubbed her eyes and asked sleepily.

"Xinyi, look, our Yahoo stock price has broken through 70 US dollars!"

"Ah, it's so high all of a sudden?"

Hearing that Yahoo stock hit a new high, Tang Xinyi immediately became excited and lost all sleepiness.

"Wow, it's true, US dollars, multiplied by your 2.96 million shares, let me calculate... Oh my God, US dollars!"

After calculating, Tang Xinyi also screamed.

"My dear, I remember that your net worth was still 190 million US dollars before the luncheon. After waking up, your net worth has increased by another 20 million US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 160 million RMB in your hometown. It's incredible!"

"Yes, no wonder many people don't want to do business honestly after playing with financial derivatives such as stocks and futures! Several companies under our Yifan Holdings worked so hard last year and made a profit of more than 10 million US dollars a year. Everyone felt that it was already very remarkable at our annual meeting. And this stock, after we made love a few times at noon and woke up after a nap, we had more than 20 million US dollars in wealth. In comparison, doing business is too hard! Haha, now it has a market value of more than 200 million US dollars. It's incredible like a dream!" Li Xiaofan laughed after taking a puff of cigar.

Tang Xinyi leaned her plump body on Li Xiaofan's back and said, "Dear, let's make love a few more times, maybe your Yahoo stock performance will be more courageous!"

"Haha, this is possible, come on, dear!"

Li Xiaofan just jokingly made a hungry tiger pounce action, his mobile phone rang, picked it up and saw that it was Alice, the public relations director of Yahoo.

"Hello, Mr. Li, we have an appointment with CCTV reporters at the Nasdaq Stock Exchange headquarters in Times Square at 3 pm. I am already in the hotel lobby, and we are about to leave..."

Li Xiaofan looked at his watch and saw that it was already past 2:30 pm. He quickly got out of bed and dressed, and asked Tang Xinyi to help him dress up.

The first time he went abroad for CCTV, he had to pay a little attention to his image.

Tang Xinyi chose a light blue shirt with a burnt orange tie for Li Xiaofan.

The light blue shirt is different from the monotonous white, giving people a low-key, calm and restrained atmosphere.

The burnt orange tie with complementary blue and straight and diagonal stripes, elastic and glossy silk can make people feel energetic, and there is a feeling of a warm sun jumping out of the gloomy blue sky, which sets off Li Xiaofan's young, handsome, mature and steady temperament.

Before coming to the United States to participate in the bell ringing ceremony this time, Tang Xinyi specially helped Li Xiaofan go to the most famous Sanjiang Western Suit Shop in Singapore to customize two sets of classic new British-style suits.

The first set of "high-end customized men's clothing" in mainland China was born in the late Qing Dynasty. It was made by the famous Mingzhou "Red Gang Tailor" for the well-known revolutionary Xu Xilin. Xu Xilin met Wang Ruimo, a Ningbo tailor who studied suit craftsmanship in Japan, in Osaka, Japan in 1903. The following year, Xu Xilin returned to China and ordered a suit in the suit shop opened by Wang Ruimo in Shanghai. Wang Ruimo spent three days and three nights, sewing the first domestically produced suit in China by hand.

The "Red Gang tailors" originated in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. Mingzhou was one of the earliest ports to trade with foreign countries at that time. Many tailors had made clothes for "red-haired people" (referring to foreigners), and the name "Red Gang" came from this. In the history of Chinese clothing, the "Red Gang tailors" created five firsts: China's first suit, the first Zhongshan suit, the first suit store, the first monograph on suit theory, and the first suit craft school...

The "Sanjiang Guild Hall" established in Singapore in 1927 was a Chinese geographical community that immigrated from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to Singapore in the early years. In the early days, the people who immigrated from Li Xiaofan's hometown in Mingzhou were mostly engaged in the "Red Gang tailor" profession.

In 1937, the "Ningpo Guild Singapore" was established from the Sanjiang Guild Hall. The first president was the famous Sir Run Run Shaw...

The third-generation descendant of the famous Sanjiang Tailor Shop in Singapore is Li Xiaofan, whose ancestral home is Fenghua, Mingzhou. Fenghua is also the hometown of Chiang Kai-shek who fled to Taiwan.

After Li Xiaofan tied a "four-in-hand knot" bow tie casually, Tang Xinyi disliked it:

"Dear, this bow tie is too ugly! Come, I'll make you a more gentlemanly Prince Yabot knot..."

The Prince Yabot knot, this gentlemanly and noble bow tie is suitable for a thin tie with soft material and the light blue shirt with a pointed collar on Li Xiaofan.

Tang Xinyi was seen wrapping the tie around Li Xiaofan's neck, with the narrow side of the tie kept on the right side of the body, leaving a longer space for the wide side, pressing the wide side on top of the narrow side, and wrapping the wide side around the narrow side twice. When wrapping the second circle, the two sides almost fit together and wrap around the annular part of the collar, passing from the bottom, and then passing the wide side through the surrounding annular hole to tighten and straighten it, completing this very gentlemanly "Prince Yabot Knot".

Tang Xinyi looked at Li Xiaofan in front of her with satisfaction. While helping him to adjust his suit and tie, she praised him: "Well, dear, you look very handsome in this outfit! Note that after the tie is tied, it is generally best to be one centimeter away from the belt buckle. For a tall person like you, it can be a little longer, but at most it should cover the belt a little bit. It will not look good if it is too long!"

"Okay, it's almost done. I have to go downstairs to the interview! You should sleep for a while, 88!"

...

When Alice took Li Xiaofan to Times Square, CCTV reporters, hosts and cameramen were already waiting there.

Times Square Times Square is the most prosperous street in the center of Manhattan, New York City, USA, and is known as the "crossroads of the world".

Times Square was originally named Longacre Square, and was later renamed Times Square because of the headquarters building of the New York Times established here in the early days.

There are nearly 40 shopping malls and theaters near Times Square, which is a prosperous entertainment and shopping center. Theaters on Broadway, a large number of dazzling neon tube advertisements, and TV-style propaganda boards have become symbols of New York, reflecting the strong urban characteristics of Manhattan.

Entering Times Square, you will be surrounded by colorful neon lights and street performers, and the big screens playing news, song MVs, and TV programs at any time are enough to shock everyone's eyes.

Many large news media in the world have studios and news centers in Times Square.

Therefore, when many foreign media report news about the United States, they always like to cut the camera to the studio in Times Square, with the bustling urban scenery of Manhattan as the background.

Today, CCTV's interview with Li Xiaofan starts with the bustling outdoor streets of Times Square and the NASDAQ big screen as the background...
