Cao Jinse pursed her lips slightly and walked over at a leisurely pace.
"Where are they?"
Jiang Chen, lost in thought, turned his head and spoke with loyalty, "I let them go play first."
Such a good guy indeed.
"What made you suddenly decide to bring them here?"
Cao Jinse examined the fairy tale kingdom, starkly contrasting with the real world.
"They've been cooped up in the hotel for so long; they needed to get out and relax."
"No wonder Youmao likes you so much now."
Jiang Chen laughed, "So you should reflect on yourself. You've never brought her to a place like this, have you?"
Cao Jinse glanced over, "You come here often? Aren't men usually uninterested in these childish places?"
"Not often. Today is just the second time."
Jiang Chen said, "Let's go find them."
The two walked inside.
"I thought you were young at heart."
Cao Jinse said as they walked.
"I wish I were."
Cao Jinse tilted her head, "You're only in your twenties. Stop acting so worn and worldly."
Jiang Chen laughed, "That's why I came here."
He took a breath, "Feel it, doesn't it make you feel much younger?"
"Is this why you bought Disney?"
Cao Jinse inquired.
Actually, her wording wasn't quite accurate.
Jiang Chen, who certainly isn't someone who speaks without thinking, wasn't just sweet-talking Li Shuru; he indeed bought Disney, but not the Disney Group—just Tokyo and East Sea Disneyland.
Moreover.
Only a portion of the stock in the two parks.
As everyone knows, all Disney parks worldwide belong to the Disney Group, and for the vast Disney Group, the parks are just one part of their business chain.
Tokyo Disney, and East Sea Disneyland, were co-created by the Disney Group and two countries, Japanese and Shen Zhou, so both parks have partial capital investment from these countries.
And now.
Jiang Chen, with abundant financial resources, acquired the shares held by the two countries.
The Japanese had no choice but to sell.
And Shen Zhou Capital didn't want to offend Jiang Chen and, moreover, the price he offered was exceptionally generous, leaving no reason to refuse.
So now, Jiang Chen can undoubtedly be called the boss of the two Disney parks.
Especially the Tokyo Disney where they currently are.
The majority of operational rights and profit rights of East Sea Disney are still in the hands of the Disney Group. And decades ago, the Japanese tried every way to oust "foreign capital," taking over more than 80% of Tokyo Disney's shares.
That's why in this financial war, the master, America, had such an ambiguous attitude, constantly kicking them while they were down, seizing the chance as Japanese were pushed to the brink of collapse, only after which Feng Shi calmly chose to intervene, not even sincerely, compelling Japanese to surrender humiliatingly.
If the Japanese were truly loyal as sons, America wouldn't have taken this stance. But history has repeatedly proven that the Japanese are wolves with unmatched greed, always bearing rebelliousness behind their backs.
"Disneyland is a goose that lays golden eggs; does one need a reason to buy it?"
Jiang Chen said, "Last time I went to East Sea Disney, the management was a mess, with many disappointing aspects that greatly impacted visitor experience. The public's opinion of East Sea Disney has never been high; people go to Disney for a fairy-tale journey. East Sea Disney needs a lot of reorganization."
"Here's another title for you, Maestro of Dreams."
Cao Jinse teased with a smile, "So you came here today to inspect?"
After walking for a while, Cao Jinse gradually sensed something amiss.
"Do you even know where you're going?"
Jiang Chen didn't say anything.
The answer was obvious.
He couldn't even find the restaurant where they ate earlier.
A boss getting lost in his own park might be embarrassing, but not blameworthy.
After all, it's his first time.
And it's really too big. Not to mention the attractions, there are over thirty dining facilities alone.
"Call Little Rabbit again, open location sharing."
Jiang Chen nodded, took out his phone, but couldn't get through.
"They must be at an attraction."
What to do now?
When you can't distinguish directions, stopping is a way to minimize loss.
But standing around doing nothing doesn't feel quite right either.
Jiang Chen looked around, spotting a towering building that looked like an ancient tower.
"Want to try it?"
Since they're already here.
A carousel might be too childish, but this attraction seems suitable for adults, probably similar to a drop tower ride.
"I won't do it."
Cao Jinse refused without hesitation, too straightforwardly.
"Why?"
Boss Jiang asked instinctively.
Such a childish Q&A.
Could it really be the subtle influence of the environment?
"If you want to play, go ahead yourself; I'll wait for you."
Chief Cao didn't explain.
"Alright then."
Boss Jiang didn't insist, "At least come with me first."
Chief Cao's IQ also dropped sharply; believing it to be true, when they reached the "green channel" and were about to "get on board," something felt off.
The staff were already waving them in.
Cao Jinse immediately halted.
"Come on, it's just a drop tower."
"I'm not going."
Cao Jinse insisted.
"We're already in; look, they're waiting for us."
Jiang Chen suddenly realized, laughing, "Are you afraid of heights?"
Cao Jinse pressed her lips, her expression tense, not saying a word, yet looking strangely like a child unwilling to admit defeat, emitting a surprisingly cute aura.
Seeing this, Boss Jiang, who never liked to force people, found himself mischievously tempted.
"Stop dawdling; everyone's watching us. I've already sent the location to Youmao; once we're done, they should be here."
Hence.
Under a certain someone's mix of persuasion and trickery, Chief Cao, unable to save face and escape, under Boss Jiang's encouraging gaze, could only step forward and enter, accidentally bumping into Jiang Chen along the way.
Jiang Chen rubbed his arm, then followed in cheerfully.
All safety measures secured, ready for countdown.
Disney focuses on fairy tales and romance, so naturally, the park facilities won't be too intense. This Tower of Terrifying Spirits isn't high, but when Jiang Chen turned his head, he saw Chief Cao gripping the handrail, taking deep breaths.
"It's okay, it'll be over in a few minutes."
What a comforting guy.
Cao Jinse shot him a look but hadn't spoken before the ride started, and people began to slowly ascend.
At first, the speed was slow, but some tourists started shouting loudly to ramp up the atmosphere.
Jiang Chen turned his head again, finding the unperturbed Cao Jinse's face slightly pale.
Really afraid of heights?
No matter how strong the mind, one can't control physiological reactions, like a murderer might fear mice.
If you're scared, just refuse decisively.
Why be so stubborn?
"If you're scared, just close your eyes..."
Before Jiang Chen finished speaking, the previously smooth ascent suddenly accelerated!
"Ah!!!!"
Screams echoed from all directions more intensely.
Boss Jiang was quite brave; or rather, not afraid of heights, he turned his head to check on the other's state, and then couldn't help but laugh.
How does being tough help?
Still obediently closing your eyes.
Rapid ascent and descent, accompanied by occasional pauses, screams filled the air nonstop.
Clearly, Cao Jinse wasn't the only one afraid of heights, but impressively, although Chief Cao kept her eyes shut and tightly held the safety rail from start to finish, she didn't let out a single scream.
A real tough character!
Few minutes, both brief and long.
When the staff released the safety measures and they walked down, Jiang Chen was about to express his strong admiration, but hadn't started speaking before
"Smack."
Chief Cao held onto his arm.
Jiang Chen was taken aback.
"If you dare laugh, I'll kill you."
A low, sinister voice spoke.
Comrade Jiang Chen immediately nodded matter-of-factly, remaining still, and asked quietly, "Can you walk?"
Cao Jinse didn't speak, after a while, she let go of Jiang Chen's arm, attempted to walk forward, and then...
With quick reflexes, Jiang Chen took a step forward, supported her elbow, and didn't say anything.
Perhaps never wanting to admit defeat, Chief Cao closed her eyes.
"Lead me out."
