America's Road to Fame

Chapter 64
The result of the conversation with Yang Zhiyuan was very good. During this conversation, the two talked about many things, and Yang Zhiyuan's view of Chen William also changed greatly.

Perhaps because they are both Chinese, it is easier for the two parties to get closer. At least when they finally left, the two of them exchanged contact information and made an appointment to meet again when they had time.

After William Chen was free, he saw Ivanta.At this time, Ivanta was gathering with the ladies. Everyone was chatting about something, but they all looked very happy.

It seems that Ivanta also enjoys this scene very much, and has established a good relationship with those ladies.

These women are all the wives of Silicon Valley bigwigs, and naturally they will not be ordinary people.We can see an interesting phenomenon, that is, although we often hear scandals between young rich men in Silicon Valley and female stars, there are not many young rich men who actually marry those stars in the end.

Even if they finally get married, when their marriage ends in breakdown, there is very little news that any female star can get too much property from the rich.

This is also very normal. In the United States, there will always be a whole team around the rich to serve them.To put it bluntly, the interests of these teams are actually tied to the interests of the rich.

Therefore, for those rich people's marriages, without their own consideration, his team will consciously formulate a series of pre-nuptial and post-marital agreements for them to ensure that his property will not suffer heavy losses due to the division of divorce on a certain day.

Therefore, we can see that those wealthy spouses who have been exposed to a large amount of property due to divorce are often together when the other party has not yet started a family.It is very rare that after becoming a rich man, they get married and have a huge amount of property taken away.

Like the most famous example: Wendi Deng and Murdoch.After the divorce, she only got two properties and a small amount of cash, with a total value of less than 1 million US dollars, less than 1% of Murdoch's total assets.

And the reason why Deng Wendi was able to continue to share the huge property of 40 billion US dollars was only because that part of the property was inherited by her two children and did not belong to her completely.

Thinking of this, William Chen finally realized the mistakes he made in his previous life.

That is, he paid too much attention to the relationship with his partner, and did not take precautions from the system.If the relationship between two people is not as strong as I imagined, once it backfires, they will suffer a very large loss, and even stand on a cliff.

Just like in his previous life, like many Chinese men, he handed over most of his assets to his wife to manage, while he himself only devoted most of his energy to making money.Therefore, when the other party has a different heart, it is easy to take away most of his assets.

This is the limitation that people who have jumped up from the bottom because of opportunities are prone to limitations, because in terms of education received since childhood, ordinary people are fundamentally different from those at the top of the pyramid.

In the United States, no rich man would hand over all his assets to his partner. Even among ordinary people, such a situation rarely occurs.

William Chen has been looking for a way for Paris and Ivanta to live in peace.At this time, he suddenly thought of a point of view he had heard before:
Ordinary men don't like women who love money. They hope that the other party is with them because of their feelings.Most of the reason is that they can't give too much money, but can only give affection.

On the other hand, rich men are just the opposite. They hope that women like money, because it is the most trouble-free way for them to exchange money for each other.It's just feelings, they can't give too much.

In the above two situations, the relationship between the sexes mentioned is not a pure relationship.If it is other women, for William Chen, it is natural that they only need to give benefits, but for women he cares about like Paris and Ivanta, feelings are a must, but apart from feelings, there are also The strongest relationship will be formed when the interests of each other are combined.

At this moment, Chen Weilian felt as if he had been enlightened, and suddenly had a feeling of great enlightenment.He has a very clear idea of ​​how to deal with the relationship between him and those partners in the future.

"Why are you sitting here by yourself, William, come over and let's have a chat."

At this time, Reed Hastings came to Chen William's side and said this to him, and took him aside.

"Come to the bar, William." As he spoke, Hastings picked up a glass of champagne from the table and prepared to pass it to William Chen.

"No need, Mr. Hastings." William Chen raised his wrist so that he could see the sobriety badge on his bracelet: "I've quit drinking, let's drink a glass of water."

"Oh? So the legend is true, William, you really persevered." Hastings said with a smile: "That's not bad, self-discipline is a very precious quality."

"Change is difficult, but change is often necessary." William Chen took a sip of water and said, "It's like Netflix back then, which has gained an advantage in the video rental business, but still focuses on Moving to streaming, a lot of people didn't like it at the time, but now it seems very sensible, doesn't it?"

"Yes, William, you are right. It seems that it is very wise for me to agree to your shareholding. You can understand me. I really hate those short-sighted people who only see the stock price in front of them." Reed Ha Stings said with some gritted teeth:
"Unfortunately, there will always be some idiots among our shareholders. To me, the future development of Netflix is ​​still the most important thing. If short-term profits can be sacrificed to make Netflix develop better in the future, then I would just do it without hesitation. But those idiots don't see this and they should all be purged."

"I agree with you, Mr. Hastings, you can believe that as long as your decision is beneficial to those future developments, I will always stand by your side." William Chen clinked glasses with Hastings , the two looked at each other and smiled.

Next, Hastings excitedly told Chen William some of his plans for the company's future. While listening, Chen William silently compared with the development route of Netflix in his previous life in his memory, and finally felt a little relieved. Come on, it seems that here at Netflix, the trajectory has not changed much.

Therefore, William Chen followed Hastings' thinking and gave some small opinions from time to time, which made Hastings have a better impression of William Chen and believed that he could really understand his own strategic planning. People, in the end, they will introduce William Chen as their confidant.

When the reception ended, Chen William and Ivanta said goodbye to the Hastings couple together.After returning to the car, what made William Chen a little depressed was that Ivanta, who was smiling just now, returned to a cold expression after sitting in the car.

When William Chen was in the back seat with her and wanted to hold her hand, Ivanta mercilessly pushed her away.

William Chen naturally wouldn't give up so easily, he continued to reach out and hold Ivanta's hand.After struggling a little this time, Ivanta didn't shake him off resolutely, but she didn't give him a good face either. She turned her eyes to the other side and looked out of the car window.

William Chen accepted it as soon as he saw it, and just held her hand until he reached the hotel entrance.

After getting off the car, William Chen directly took Ivanta's hand and walked in. After reaching the presidential suite on the top floor, Ivanta suddenly stopped at the door of the room.

"What's the matter, come in, Ivanta." William Chen opened the door and said.

But what he met was a half-smile expression on Ivanta's face: "William, do you want to sleep with me?"

Uh, eldest sister, do you want to be so fierce, you will make me very shy... Are you testing me?Well, it must be.

After this moment of mental activity, William Chen said to Ivanta gently with a charming smile on his face: "I just want to have a good chat with you, Ivanta, I haven't seen you for so long, it's very Miss you."

"Is that so? Forget it, I'm going back to my room."

When William Chen saw her talking, there was a hint of...disappointment on his face?Could it be that I thought too much at the beginning, Ivanta really wanted to...

At this moment, William Chen only felt remorse. Is this rare opportunity going to be missed?

Just when he was about to change his words, he saw Ivanta chuckle, and then said to William Chen seriously: "William, when you can make a choice, especially when the relationship with Paris returns to normal, let's say goodbye." It's right. Besides, I'm inconvenient today."

I'll go, I'm still being tricked by her, William Chen just watched Ivanta leave, and returned to the room depressed.

Difficult!
