Chapter 238 - The ZD-all in Project

The Zheng Duo Project, or ZD Project, was a humongous project that needed multiple companies in multitude countries to carry out. This was an international project that once carried out successfully, it would bring all the allied companies to a higher level altogether. It would bring so much benefits and fame.

But this glorious reward could only be achieved after all the hard work and sacrifices were done successfully.

Information and Communications Technology was already a ubiquitous aspect of humanity, wherever you go in any corner of the world. Network was always needed wherever a person went. It was for communication, entertainment, work, and assignments. No matter who the person was or what age they belonged to, they would surely need it.

The fast paced modern world demanded the people within it to depend as such on networks.

More so when globalization had finally enveloped the world. Barriers between countries started disappearing and people began to travel freely everywhere. Tourism and migration steadily rose, overcoming records along the years.

There was high traffic of people travelling all over the world every single day, whether for entertainment, work, or studies. What kept their feeling of security and stability was the fact that they can always contact their families and friends wherever, and access on demand information online whenever.

However, there were different networks in every country. Each carrier varied greatly in performance. So, if one person travelled, they needed to look for a network in partnership with their own carrier, or access expensive roaming services. Sometimes, they even needed to purchase an entirely new SIM card and phone just to be able to use a smartphone overseas.

It was a pain from time to time, as they do not get stable connections all the time. It was more expensive, and people would get additional charges for international rates.

Businessmen, students, and many tourists from non-wealthy families contributed to the biggest pie of the daily traffic of international travels. To them, changing carriers from time to time was a pain in the ass.

The ZD Project intended to solve that situation. If there was one same network in all countries around the world, then there was no need to switch to another carrier or purchase a new gadget just to register in that country's network. They would still be receiving the good quality connection without any hassle, making calls and messages like usual, without any compromise on the signal strength and high speed connection.

Not all countries have the same network speed when it comes to network connection. Some were slow, some were ridiculously fast. The ZD Project catered that very high speed on the globalized level.

From this point, one could see how ZD Project would be successful.

In fact, the tendency of the world headed to such a direction as well. Eventually along the road of global development, such endeavor would be implemented.

That was why the first bird who catches the worm would be the winner. Why not become that bird then?

What was more, ZD Project was not only about network and internet.

It also sported an app of online selling platform that could deliver internationally. This app could also be used as a money bank or e-wallet where one can transfer money, or use it as a payment method, anywhere around the globe. Since this was a project intended to be implemented globally, in no time, ZD Project would be in everyone's cellphone and it would be a universal app.

In the latter stages, the project could also branch out selling their own brand of devices.

If ZD Project would be carried out fully, there was no question that it would be truly a golden success that would serve as another pivot in accelerating global development.

The largest requirement that was the hardest to achieve was to find business partnersh.i.p.s that could work in cooperation around the globe. A lot of resources and money would be needed that even several big companies would not be able to support it.

That was why Linfeng went straight to the five kings.

These five kings were all successors from different countries. They were called 'kings' for a reason. They were the top of the cream of the crop in whichever industry they were in.

William, for example. The Grand Company was number one in entertainment. It was one of the mothers of the Hollywood movies aired around the globe.

Eugene's family dealt with coals and oil deposits. They were ranked the highest in the Middle-East, aside from the royal family.

The other kings were generally the same. They had influence around the globe.

Though in Asia, the four legendary families held the greatest influence, and no one could ever beat them. However, Linfeng was stationed under one of the legendary families. His SC Company was making a name in China as well. He would be an influential figure in Asia in a few years' time.

The five kings knew that this project would cost them hundreds to thousands of billions. It might not even be enough, but the future rewards they would reap brought them much anticipation. ZD Project might even turn into the number one app in the future. Like how Facebook, YouTube, and Microsoft held great influence all around the world.

There was even a possibility that ZD Project might beat them.

"This is really interesting. This project could not really be started with just you alone, or even with me. It seems you plan to catch all of us all along." Erich crossed his arms and looked at Linfeng in wonder. "So, in the beginning, you had already designed for me to approach you?"

Erich was really impressed. Someone had actually outsmarted him. Even though he had heard of Linfeng's proposal and had not heard of its details, just a slight peek on the project was enough for him to want to meet him personally and inquire more about the extremely daring project.

Linfeng nodded. "I needed you to get me so I can catch the other four kings."

"..."

After recovering from their initial shock, the five men laughed.

"Impressive! So we are the ones who were caught in the end, eh? Hahaha," Caleb laughed out. The truth was, he actually got goosebumps there.

There was no need to groom this young man. His brain had already gone beyond them.

"I see. So that is why you're so calm when you saw us. I bet you were happy when you saw us sitting here in a complete set," Eugene sighed as he shook his head. He, too, was taken aback by this incredible young man.

"Ahem. Then, what will you do if we ended up rejecting you?" William coughed to cover his surprise.

Linfeng stared at him with a faint smile. His calm and chilly eyes that did not belong to a teenager raised the hair on William's neck.

TvT

He was regretting making fun of this young man earlier. Who knew when this young man would retaliate against him?

"You won't reject me. If you wanted to reject me from the beginning, then none of us would have been here." Linfeng answered him calmly. 'And you would not have come in a complete set,' he added in his mind.

His answer and demeanor reminded William of Xiong Zhi again. These two teenagers were really alike.

Who influenced who?

Everyone inside the room continued to discuss about the project, judging the risks and the rewards, as well the overall details of the plan.

Shortly after.

Johan stood up and held out his hand to Linfeng.

"I will cooperate. Every company in my disposal will support your project."

Linfeng was taken aback. That was it? They have only discussed the surface details of the project and had not even decided upon how big their companies' shares would be.

Erich stood up as well and nodded. "Count me in. My eyes would never fail me."

"Me, too," Caleb echoed.

"Of course, I'm also in." Eugene did not stand up but shot a friendly smile at Linfeng.

Even William grinned playfully at him.

"If you call me big brother, I will cooperate."

Linfeng looked at him. He was actually considering leaving this man out of the project, because this perverted man might harass his Young Miss again. But he composed himself.

This man before him was one of the five kings. Leaving him out might put the other four against him. Thus, he could only promise to himself that if this man even gave at least one indecent glance at his Young Miss for a second, he would not hesitate to kick him out of this project. Even if that meant he might lose billions of resources.

William sweated a bit when he saw Linfeng hesitate.

'This kiddo would not leave me out, right? Hey, he needs me, too, ah,' William comforted himself. This young man before him seemed to hold grudges.

After a long while, Linfeng spoke.

"Uncle."

'"..."

"I only call big brother those who are at most nine years older than me. Not more than that."

William was twenty eight this year. He was the oldest among the five kings. The second eldest was Eugene at twenty-seven. Linfeng counted. With that reason, William was the only one who deserved to be called 'uncle' here.

William's mouth twitched. 'Was he mocking me with his age? Fine, he was the sweet eighteen.'

The other men laughed, seeing William's expression. William had his way of winning over arguments with his mischievous ways. Now, it seemed like someone who could match his playfulness finally appeared.
