Reborn Capital Tycoon Chapter 191

  Chapter 191 The Global Daily Ready to Take Off

   “The oil market, really the oil market…”

  As Chen Yi's wealth was exposed, everyone was guessing where Chen Yi's funds came from. Such a large sum of money obviously couldn't be relied on by only two subsidiaries (Dafeng Toy Factory and Xinji Clothing Factory).

  So, many people are guessing out of thin air, and some even suspect that Chen Yi is helping the underworld to launder money and engage in illegal activities secretly.

   There is a huge market for this guess. The reason is that Chen Yi is surrounded by a group of bodyguards to protect him all the time.

  In the era when Brother Hao didn't have a swordsman, most of the wealthy people in Xiangjiang used to travel without bodyguards. Even if they brought bodyguards, there were at most one or two people behind them.

In most cases, the driver works as a bodyguard. Few people are like Chen Yi, who goes out with more than a dozen bodyguards by his side, making him look like the boss of Hei^. All the rich behave in a low-key way.

  As the saying goes, if you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door.

   Everyone believes that if Boss Chen has done nothing wrong and the source of wealth is reasonable and legal, then there is no need to worry about his own safety.

   Fortunately, these are just speculations, and generally a little knowledgeable people will not believe it. If Chen Yi's wealth is really unreasonable and illegal, then the police would have come to him long ago.

  Since the police didn't trouble Boss Chen, it means that he is innocent, so even if there is a market for this guess, many people still don't believe it.

  In addition to the speculation of laundering money for the underworld, there is another speculation that most of Chen Yi's money comes from the stock market.

  In everyone's perception, only the stock market can allow a person to gain such a huge amount of wealth in a short period of time.

  After all, most people who play stocks like to use leverage. A dollar of funds, plus several times, ten times or even more multiples of leverage, once lucky, is enough to make people rich overnight.

  Most knowledgeable people are inclined to this guess.

  Especially because of the huge fluctuations in the oil market before, many people tend to believe that Chen Yi's wealth should come from the oil market.

  Oil is the blood of the industry, and its market size is astonishingly large. If Chen Yi really had a unique vision and bought more oil during the oil crisis last year, it would not seem difficult to make billions from it.

   You know, last year the global oil price soared three or four times. With such a large profit, you can make a lot of money if you just invest a little money.

   However, there is no definite evidence for these speculations.

   Now it's all right, Boss Chen's source of wealth finally has a direction, Chen Lixue is already thinking at this moment, what a sensation this news will cause when it is published in the newspaper tomorrow.

  Of course, this is not the point. What Chen Lixue cares about most is the sales. The sales of her own newspaper are steadily increasing.

  As the head of the newspaper, nothing can reflect her ability and performance better than sales. Originally, she thought that it would take another year or two for her Global Daily to catch up with Oriental Daily.

   Now it's all right, Boss Chen came back out of the rivers and lakes, and the continuous enthusiasm directly led the Global Daily to take off.

  Everyone knows that the Global Daily is the newspaper of Boss Chen, so many people who follow Boss Chen basically only recognize the news on the Global Daily. As long as the Global Daily publishes news about Boss Chen, everyone basically agrees.

  So, in the past half a month, the sales volume of the Global Times has been steadily increasing, from the initial daily sales of tens of thousands, to 100,000, to hundreds of thousands, to 200,000...

  Currently, the daily sales volume of Global Daily has started to be equal to the sales volume of "Oriental Daily", the largest newspaper in Xiangjiang.

   Today's news, Chen Lixue thinks that she has made good use of it. Tomorrow, her own newspaper may break the record of Dongfang Daily's daily sales of 300,000 copies. Once the Global Daily breaks this record, then the Global Daily's position in Hong Kong's newspaper industry will be stable.

  Thinking of this, Chen Lixue couldn't wait to return to the agency.

  However, on the way back, Chen Lixue turned to the security room and found Haozai who was studying hard in the security room (Some readers strongly asked me to change Haozi to Haozai, so the little one had to obey.)

   "Hao Zai, what are you looking at again?"

   "Hey, sister Xue, why are you here when you have time?"

   "Why, sister can't come to your place?"

   "How could it be? It's too late to welcome." Haozai put down the book in a hurry, called Chen Lixue to sit down, and said politely: "Sister Xue, what do you want to drink? Tea? Or a drink?"

  Chen Lixue shook her head and said, "Stop drinking, I just came out of Xiaoyi's office, and I came here to ask you for a little favor."

   "Sister Xue, please tell me if you have something to do, and my younger brother will definitely help. The premise is that it doesn't involve Brother Yi's personal affairs. I will be very embarrassed."

  During this time, Chen Lixue not only pestered Boss Chen badly, but also drew attention to Haozai, the bodyguards who followed Chen Yi all day long. There were lessons learned from the past, so Haozai had to take precautions in advance.

  Although he has a strong relationship with Chen Yi, it is not the capital for him to speak freely and do whatever he wants. Now he relies on Boss Chen for food, and he knows what he can say and what he should do. Some things, let alone Chen Lixue, even if he is a family member, he will not reveal a word.

  Chen Lixue rolled her eyes, and said angrily, "Look at you, why are you so afraid of Brother Yi? You don't even recognize Sister Xue."

   Haozai gritted his teeth and insisted: "The public is the public, and the private is the private. Sister Xue, don't embarrass the younger brother."

  Chen Lixue didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Okay, I'm here today, not to inquire about Xiao Yi."

Hearing that Chen Lixue didn't come to ask him about Chen Yi, Haozai couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly said: "That's no problem, Sister Xue, if you need my help, just say hello, brother promises to take care of it for you Done."

  Chen Lixue nodded and said: "Okay, you pick a few people and come with me to the newspaper office."

  Hao Tsai asked in confusion: "Is there something wrong with the newspaper again?"

  Chen Lixue shook her head and said, "No, it's because I'm a little worried. Just in case, you send someone over to keep an eye on it for me."

  A few days ago, an insider appeared in the Global Daily, and leaked the news about Boss Chen that the newspaper was going to publish the next day. Although the insider was caught in the end, it also caused a sharp drop in the sales of the Global Daily the next day.

  After Haozai's investigation, it turned out that the Oriental Daily was behind the trick. The other party used money to bribe the internal staff of the Global Daily, and obtained the news published by the Global Daily the next day from the inner ghost.

   You must know that the media rely on news for their livelihood, especially exclusive news such as Boss Chen. In many cases, whoever reports first can attract a large number of readers and greatly increase the sales of the newspaper.

  After the last incident, Chen Lixue also began to pay attention to it. There are no mobile phones in this era, so it is very easy to keep secrets. As long as the employees are asked to work overtime and a few people are sent to watch, then others will not be able to take advantage of the loopholes.
