Chapter 841: A Meeting At Night

“But don’t forget, we are pioneers.

“With our help, he could very well be able to develop more smoothly.

“This is also good for us.

“Those foreigners look down on us and always target us, so we need friends and teammates.

“Only by uniting can we truly make our way into that sector.”

Wang Xing and Liu Dong glanced at Brother Ma and nodded.

Seeing that the two of them had agreed to his idea, Brother Ma clapped his hands and decided on this plan. “Alright, then I’ll get someone to ask Mr. Su out one day and have a chat.”

When he said that, he seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly smiled and said, “Forget it, we’ll wait for the World’s Billionaire List to be announced. When that happens, his name will be known overseas as well, so it will be easier for him to negotiate with those foreigners.”

Liu Dong said indifferently, “After the announcement, he’ll be even busier. I reckon he won’t be free for at least half a month after that.”

Brother Ma waved his hand nonchalantly. “People at our level have to pass that obstacle eventually. This is also a test for him.”

“Alright, that’s all for today.” Then, Brother Ma stood up and asked, “Mr. Liu, Mr. Wang, what are your plans? Do you want to have dinner together?”

Liu Dong looked at the time, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face. “I still have other things to do, so I’ll pass. You guys go ahead.”

Brother Ma looked at him and reminded him, “Old Liu, you just got married last year. Be careful of your image.”

Liu Dong nodded but did not pay much attention...

After Liu Dong left, Brother Ma and Wang Xing headed downstairs as well. When they were waiting for the elevator, Brother Ma said with a nostalgic tone, “Now that I think about the things that happened to me when I was at the top of the World’s Billionaire List, I really do miss them.”

Wang Xing stood beside him and nodded with a smile. “Yes. I hope Little Su can handle it well.”

...

The next day, Su Yang, the Clown Sea Serpent, and Zhao Licheng studied their plans to go to sea. Then, they decided on their first stop to be Japan.

The main reason why Japan was chosen was because it was close to home. Furthermore, this country had a feud with his own country, so he could do whatever he wanted. Even if he accidentally got rid of them and destroyed the country, Su Yang would not mind it.

In order to ensure that his plan would go smoothly, Su Yang had also arranged for his trusted subordinate, the Clown Sea Serpent, to head over. Su Yang wanted him to let go of the matters in Central Asia and develop his influence in Japan.

Because of the return of the Clown Sea Serpent, the situation in Central Asia had stabilized. However, the other party was an underground organization that had been in Central Asia for many years. Their whereabouts were hidden, and the Clown Sea Serpent did not alert the enemy since he was not confident he could obliterate them completely.

Hence, Su Yang’s arrangement this time could be considered as letting the Clown Sea Serpent leave his swamp to take some time off.

After everything was arranged, Su Yang left for a while before returning to the study room to check on his missions.

After the screening of “Wandering Planet”, Su Yang’s missions experienced a huge increase.

The Silver Mission had been completed, so Su Yang had obtained another Silver Point and could draw more abilities at that moment.

The Gold Mission, which was to accumulate the number of people influenced, was now more than half completed. It only needed a little more time in order to finish it. That way, the system could proceed with its next upgrade.

The only issue was with the Platinum Mission. Even though “Wandering Planet” had already been titled as the highest box office in history, the mission was still not completed.

Su Yang suspected that this might be a problem with the system. He had to wait for the movie to be screened and the box office to be confirmed before he could be considered as being truly ranked the first in history. Hence, he could only wait patiently.

However, based on the completion of these three missions, making a movie was indeed a killing machine that could give him a whole lot of coins and the number of people influenced.

Su Yang had discussed with Little Deeny about the cause of this situation, and his initial conclusion was that the movie was a cultural and values export method. Furthermore, it was one of the most effective methods.

As long as it was a good movie, had positive energy, and could move people, it could influence them to change for the better.

This was also the reason why countries valued the art of movies.

Similarly, novels, comics, animation, these artistic methods that could also export values could also influence others very quickly.

Compared to selling items that could change a person’s life, such “AOE attacks” were obviously much faster.

That was why Su Yang placed more importance on “Wolf Warriors 2”. He hoped that the movie’s popularity would allow him to reap another batch of coins and the number of people influenced. That way, he wouldn’t have to worry about spending coins on developing the virtual space or its various technologies!

After reading the mission, Su Yang turned off the system. Looking at the time, it was already 5:30pm. ‘Time for dinner.’

Therefore, he packed up and prepared to head downstairs for dinner.

Before he reached the first floor, his phone rang.

“Ring...’

‘Someone’s calling me?’

“Little Deeny, who’s that?”

A moment later, Little Deeny’s voice rang in Su Yang’s ears. “Master, it’s Jiang Yan.”

Su Yang was stunned.

‘Jiang Yan? Why would she be looking for me? Did she come to congratulate me because she knew that I’m going to enter the top 30 of the World’s Billionaire List?’

As soon as Su Yang thought of this, he threw the idea to the back of his mind because that was not like Jiang Yan at all.

‘I reckon that it would be pretty decent of her if she could even say a few words when I’m dead.’

Su Yang picked up the phone.

“Hello? Young Master Jiang, is something the matter?”

Jiang Yan nodded and said, “Come to my place for dinner.”

Su Yang was speechless.

“Your house?”

Su Yang was surprised.

‘I’m not that close to Jiang Yan, so why would she ask me to go to her home for dinner?

‘I haven’t even gone to Chu Xia’s house before!’

Jiang Yan nodded again and said, “I’ve sent you the address.”

Then, Jiang Yan hung up.

Su Yang was speechless when she heard the beeping sound, which was exactly like Jiang Yan.

‘She’s being so clean about it that I can’t even reject her.’

Su Yang took out his glass phone. The address showed a high-end residential area... Tomson Riviera.

‘I heard that this place is one of the most expensive residences in Shanghai, isn’t it?

‘Jiang Yan lives here?

‘Still... I don’t think this is her parents’ house, but her own.

‘After all, no matter how luxurious Tomson Riviera is, it’s still too “fashionable”, unlike Old Master Jiang or the places where Jiang Yan’s parents would live.’

Su Yang heaved a sigh of relief.

‘I suppose it’s fine as long as I don’t have to go to the Jiangs’ residence for a meal.

‘If it’s just Jiang Yan, it’s probably impossible for it to be some kind of personal business she has with me, so I guess there’s no harm going since I haven’t eaten yet anyway.

Therefore, Su Yang left the virtual space without hesitation. He drove his Ferrari and headed towards Tomson Riviera.

After the security guard verified his identity, Su Yang arrived at Jiang Yan’s house.

Jiang Yan’s family lived on the 28th floor, which was the highest floor in the entire building. It had the best view and the most expensive floor.

When he reached the elevator, Su Yang sent Jiang Yan a voice message before the lights automatically turned on.

After a while, the elevator went up, and soon, the door opened. Jiang Yan was standing there barefooted in a red dress.

Su Yang was stunned for a moment when he saw Jiang Yan’s beautiful face.

Jiang Yan glanced at him and said indifferently, “Come in.”

Su Yang came back to his senses and smiled. “Alright.”

Then he changed his shoes and walked into Jiang Yan’s home.

When he arrived at Jiang Yan’s house, Su Yang looked around curiously at the place where every inch of land was precious. ‘There doesn’t seem to be anything special about this place though. It’s no different from an ordinary house.’

Just as he was looking around, Jiang Yan’s voice came from behind him. “Do you know why I called you here today?”

Su Yang asked curiously, “Because you’re lonely?”

Jiang Yan was speechless.

“Bam!” Jiang Yan kicked Su Yang’s butt.

Su Yang clutched his butt in pain.

Jiang Yan retracted her foot and said coldly, “Nothing good comes out of your mouth.”

Then, she led Su Yang to the dining room and said, “I called you here because I saw that you were about to enter the top of the World’s Billionaire List. That’s why I’m going to tell you some things to take note of in advance so that you won’t be flustered when the time comes.”

Su Yang covered his butt as he followed Jiang Yan to the dining room. He asked curiously, “What’s there to take note of though?”

When he arrived at the dining room, it was a rectangular table. There were two sets of cutlery on both sides of the table. They were western cutlery. Two identical plates were placed in front of the cutleries.

Jiang Yan sat down on her seat and adjusted her dress. “Of course.”

After saying that, she gestured for Su Yang to sit opposite her. Then, she picked up her fork and knife and picked up a piece of salad. “Do you think that the World’s Billionaire List is just a simple rankings list?”

Su Yang sat down and looked at her. “Isn’t it? It’s not official. Could it have other uses?”

Jiang Yan nodded and said, “Although it’s not official, it’s still the most authoritative list in the world. Therefore, many companies, big shots from all over the world, the media, charity organizations, and even the relevant departments have their eyes fixed on this.”

“Once you’re on the list, these people will come looking for you. They will use all sorts of reasons to come to you for money, fame, and even to pry into your privacy.

Su Yang was surprised. “Really? But I’ve been on the list before.”

Jiang Yan said calmly, “Yes, 162nd place. I can’t even turn to your section after eight pages. There are 161 people ahead of you, so do you think others will notice you?”

Su Yang was deep in thought.

Seeing that Su Yang was listening to her, Jiang Yan continued, “For a tycoon like you who entered the top 30 for the first time, you are actually the easiest to be targeted. This is because the tycoons in the past have already gotten used to it. Or perhaps they have given enough benefits, so those people are no longer interested.”

“You, on the other hand, have just entered. Everyone will be coming up to try and grab a piece of your pie.”

Su Yang muttered the words “a piece of pie”, and felt that he could actually imagine that situation.

‘I suppose I really am a piece of pie.’

Su Yang could not help but ask, “Can’t I reject them?”

Jiang Yan smiled and said, “For example, the relevant departments in various places. They need to attract investors, so they’ll ask the publicity department to ask you for investments. They’ll ask you to build factories and bases. Some of them might even be provincial level, so do you think it’s going to be convenient for you to refuse?”

Su Yang pondered for a while and felt that it was really inconvenient. Firstly, it was not a bad thing. After all, if he wanted to attract investors, there would definitely be generous conditions. Secondly, if it was really a provincial related department, as long as there was not a lot of money, they would definitely form a good relationship. There might even be a few top bosses in the country.

Jiang Yan seemed to have guessed Su Yang’s thoughts. She slowly put the salad into her mouth and added, “But what if there are dozens more from where that came from?”

Su Yang was speechless.

Su Yang instantly understood the crux of the matter. He was not afraid of one coming to look for him, but he was not afraid of two coming to look for him. However, if there were more of them, it would be difficult to deal with them. He could not possibly give them all, right?

This was attracting investors. A few hundred million yuan, a few billion yuan even. If there were a few more dozen similar cases, that would end up becoming billions, or even tens of billions of yuan!

If he only gave a portion, who should he distribute the money to? Who was he going to satisfy, and who was he going to offend?

That was the problem.

No wonder so many big companies opened branches all over the country. It seemed like not only was it a national strategy, but it was also to attract investors from all over the country!

Knowing that Su Yang had seen through the crux of the problem, Jiang Yan continued, “Other than the various places that have their eyes on you, there are also many small and medium-sized enterprises that are looking for you to invest in them. There are a lot of people mixed in the good and bad, and there are also a lot of weird things.”

“There will also be charity organizations targeting you. I hope you can donate money to people with AIDS, disabled children, poor mountains, lonely old people, leukemia patients, and so on.”

Su Yang was speechless.

Su Yang would definitely be more than willing to donate money to an organization. However, it would not do if he donated too much...

Seeing Su Yang’s frown getting deeper, Jiang Yan couldn’t help but reveal a faint smile. “There’s no need to mention the news media, right?”

“You’ve become a tycoon. Everything about you will be dug out, including your parents, family, and neighbors.”

“Plus the tax. Now that you’re a super-rich person, you’re officially recognized in the country. The tax department has to check your accounts to prevent you from stealing the tax.”

At this point, Jiang Yan lowered her head and said with a smile, “It’s easy to be rich...”

Su Yang was speechless.

Su Yang felt a headache coming on. “Then, I’ll just quit. I’ll go and inform the billboard.”

Jiang Yan slowly took a bite of her food. “Let’s not talk about whether the World’s Billionaire List agrees to that or not. Don’t you want to hear what benefits there are?”

Su Yang asked, “What?”

Jiang Yan said, “Your fame and influence will be greatly increased. Be it in China or abroad, you are already considered to be one of China’s faces. You will be valued by many places.

“Facing normal tycoons, whether it’s local or foreign governments, they might be up to no good and try to cheat you of your money. However, with this influence, they probably won’t do anything rash.

“To become a top tycoon. The qualifications to represent the country’s two conferences, many national projects, national awards, and honors are within reach. If you accumulate enough honor and the country values you, you might even represent the country to attend international conferences or interviews.”
