Chapter 48 2/2

【Ah ah ah, is it true? I remember Sheng Quan is a Huaxia citizen!

【Upstairs, Sheng Quan is a pure-blooded Huaxia, and she loves her country a lot! You can tell from her previous interviews! Also, for this “Cultivator,” she invested because she thought immortal cultivation is something unique to Huaxia!】

【Ah ah ah ah friends, don’t ignore the key point! That 11.3 billion is not in RMB! If converted to RMB, it’s ninety billion! Ninety billion, friends!】

【Who is Sheng Quan? Is she so rich?】

【Sheng Quan is a powerhouse who can donate a billion. Moreover, our President Quan is dedicated to entertaining everyone and herself. Her entire career and “Cultivator” were all funded and produced by her. In order to film “Cultivator,” she even bought a piece of land in the Magic Capital to build the Ten Immortal Palaces!】

【Hahaha, Country A has many media outlets criticizing the Jones family, saying they shouldn’t sell the Jones Estate, which witnessed Country A’s history, to foreigners. Why do I find it so satisfying?】

Not only this netizen, but most netizens felt extremely pleased when they saw these critical news stories.

If Sheng Quan spent 9 billion yuan to buy something in China, some people might still say a few sour words. If she bought a historic courtyard or something in China, people would criticize her even more.

But the key was that she bought a historic building in Country A.

And it was famous! Country A people were criticizing more and more, expressing dissatisfaction with this grand cross-border transaction. The Huaxia people were more than happy to see that.

Everyone happily continued their discussions.

【Why are you so upset? Jones Estate was auctioned. It’s not like they didn’t allow Country A citizens to buy it. The highest bidder wins. Why be unhappy about it?】

【Yes, if Country A doesn’t want to sell its own historical and cultural buildings, they can let their wealthy citizens buy Jones Estate.】

【Hahaha, everyone, don’t say that. We live in the same global village, and we should be friendly. Before, Country A people also collected our Huaxia cultural relics. It’s normal for us to spend 9 billion to buy a historical building in Country A.】

【Hahaha, did you notice the person introducing Sheng Quan? That’s the eldest son of the Jones family, and his attitude is unbelievably good.】

Someone was more rational.

【Everyone, let’s not jump to conclusions so quickly. That’s just a photo taken by chance. We’re not sure if Sheng Quan bought Jones Estate. Even if the person in the photo is her, maybe she was invited for a visit.】

This comment hadn’t been posted for long when there was an update on Sheng Quan’s Weibo.

Sheng Quan: 【New home gathering. Finally, the crew has a place to stay.】

【Pictures of various parts inside Jones Estate are posted: swimming pool, golf course, castle cluster, basketball court, tennis court, huge gym, large library, extensive woods, flower room, and even a helipad, etc.】

【The crew gathered for the Golden Tree Award seems to be having a party, probably hosting a meeting. Everyone looks very happy.】

Comments from netizens who saw the pictures:

【So, did our President Sheng just decide to attend the awards ceremony and then impulsively buy such a huge estate? Ah ah ah ah ah!!!】

【Did you buy Jones Estate just to provide accommodation for the crew?! So extravagant!!!】

【Ah ah ah ah ah, I’ve turned into a screaming chicken!】

Sheng Quan, looking at the shocked comments from domestic netizens, reclined on a luxurious outdoor lounge chair next to the large swimming pool, watching the handsome men and beautiful women playing in the water. She picked up a cup and took a sip. of iced cola.

Why did she buy Jones Estate?

What was she going to do with it?

She was also curious.

Sheng Quan had resisted the temptation to draw lots for so long, waiting until Xu Man and Jiang Zhen’s career scores both exceeded fifty-five before deciding to start drawing.

Then, she drew the ongoing auction of Jones Estate.

Valued at over 9 billion RMB, it ranked among the top ten luxurious estates worldwide.

To be honest, accumulating lottery eligibility for so long wasn’t in vain; it could even be considered a profit. The funds required for estate maintenance and various miscellaneous expenses were also included in the lottery range, meaning she didn’t have to spend a penny to get such a dreamy estate.

Now, the question was, how many days could Sheng Quan spend here in a year?

She wasn’t very interested in living abroad. Even though this estate was like a treasure trove with everything she could ever want, Sheng Dong preferred to stay in China, occasionally wandering around her own company, buying things when she was happy, and observing the crews of her invested dramas when she wanted to see some excitement.

Moreover, she couldn’t sell it for cash, let alone open it for public viewing. If it were open, aside from the possibility of people thinking she was crazy, she herself felt like it would be a waste of a treasure.

So, the biggest purpose of this massive estate was, surprisingly, to show off.

A few months of lottery eligibility resulted in this opportunity to show off.

Sheng Quan placed the cup heavily on the table.

But that’s okay.

The advantage of showing off is that everyone will smile at her.

She glanced at her phone, which had been buzzing non-stop, and at her secretary, who had been answering calls almost incessantly.

“Another invitation to a party?”

The secretary quickly muted the phone.

“Yes, the chairman of Winston expressed the desire to invite you to a banquet next Monday.”

Sheng Quan: “How many invitations to banquets is this?”

“The seventh one. But there are also various cocktail parties and some beach parties. I’ve recorded them all.”

“Some directors also want to secure your investment.”

Sheng Quan’s purchase of Jones Estate not only shocked ordinary people but also made a significant impact on the upper class in Country A. While it was unknown whether she would be welcomed in China, Sheng Quan, a lady from Huaxia, instantly became the most popular figure at various banquets and events in Country A, where money talks.

However, why should she attend other people’s banquets?

Sheng Quan stood up, throwing her robe on the lounge chair.

“Prepare an invitation list. I want to host a banquet in the estate, and in addition to the guests of the Golden Tree Awards, select some quality film representatives from various countries.”

Sheng Quan had just demonstrated her power, and now, by inviting celebrities, there was a high probability they would attend the banquet.

And these “upper-class celebrities” would attract each other.

Gradually, Jones Estate, ah no, Starlight Estate, would become the next renowned arena that the whole world would flock to.

Having given her instructions, Sheng Quan, feeling refreshed, leisurely jumped into the water.

Since she wanted to show off,

Then, of course, she had to show off in style.

Who said she couldn’t host the second Golden Tree Awards?
