Chapter 214: Family Meeting (Part Sixteen)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
A person in charge of a company’s Chess Cards gaming ran in at a speed of a hundred-meter sprinter. Upon seeing Liu Yihui, he loudly exclaimed. “Director Liu! Director Liu! Good news, good news!”
“What good news, don’t you see that we’re having a meeting here?” Liu Yihui curiously asked.
“It’s really good news.” That person in charge gasped for breath as he said, “Lianxing Chess Cards’s side has angered Hackers’ alliance for some unknown reason, and it’s currently suffering from attacks by the hackers. Thus, its server is completely down now!”
Liu Yihui: “...”
All the executives: “...”
Liu Mingxin: “...”
“Director Liu, what’s the matter?” The person in charge was instantly shocked. “Why aren’t you all talking?”
“I concede... I concede...” Liu Yihui sat right back onto his chair. “Luckily I’ve just started...”
“It’s fine, you can go back first.” Liu Mingxin said to the person in charge of Chess Cards gaming.
After he had left, everyone present almost got down on their knees, and all the executives below were covered in sweat. “This... This world is too miraculous...”
After suffering from shock for a short while, Liu Yihui desperately shouted out loudly. “Do the gaming! Do Chess Cards gaming! Whoever dares to say no, I’ll chop him into pieces!”
“Right! Do it relentlessly!” “Whoever objects will be the public enemy of the people!” All the executives responded one after another.
Liu Mingxin couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile. That Hong Dali—looks like he had to highly regard him in the future.
However, at the same time, Liu Mingxin felt very strange as well. His luck was indeed not bad, but it couldn’t be so ridiculous as well. What exactly happened today such that things had gotten so serious? That was totally like a son of heaven, and he could definitely confirm with 100% certainty that he was the biological one as well!
After he relentlessly shook his head to empty his head of those thoughts, Liu Mingxin continued.
“Coming next will be Music. This definitely has to be changed to a fake one, an empty shell. At the present moment, it looks like it’s too late to cancel it. We can instead consider creating some BUG on purpose, and slowly make the power of influence of Turkey Music shrink. Afterward, in the name of repaying our customers, we’ll strive to start a partnership with Ku Ge Music to expand and promote it.”
“Good! Let’s do that!” This time, Liu Yihui directly decided on the spot without even daring to ask about anything.
Are you kidding? Whoever asked him to go against that monster Hong Dali, he’d break that person’s leg!
“Needless to say about online gaming, that has always been my territory. I’ll just need to do more advertising. Just make me one on Turkey Messenger Software and that will be enough. The Hong Family’s Sangle company has all along not had many business services in this aspect, thus, there is no possibility of clashing with them.” Liu Mingxin was very confident about the aspect of online gaming.
His Draconic Continent was already the most popular online game previously, and now, it was followed by Hong Dali’s E-Sports. Thus, Liu Mingxin believed that very soon, that game would be able to increase a huge section of the profits again.
“User upgrade system, that can increase the customer stickiness towards the software, and it belongs to our internal service. Thus, it won’t be related to anyone. We can feel free to expand this business service.
“Lastly,” Liu Mingxin emphasized. “Search engine. We must immediately stop this business service. This is the foundation of the Hong Family. Thus, should we not stop this business service, those previous few business services would definitely produce an unpredictable destructive force, and then... I believe that everyone will be able to understand.”
“Understand! We understand it just too well!” “This definitely has to stop, if not we might be the next Lianxing!”
Liu Yihui, too, relentlessly made a decision. “Let’s decide on that, then! I didn’t think of eliminating Sangle before this business service. Now that I see it, we might as well directly do away with it. Oh right, Mingxin, about that Search, what can we do better to give it up?”
Liu Mingxin touched his chin, and very quickly, smiled and said, “It’s simple actually, just create some BUG on purpose, then just leave it to emerge by itself and perish by itself. We didn’t have much ability to compete with Sangle with this business service since the start, so there’s no need to agitate them.”
“Alright, let’s do it this way!”
“En, I’ll go back first then, I won’t interfere with anything else after this.”
“Ok, rest early.”
“Alright.”
After exiting Turkey building, Liu Mingxin let out a long breath and muttered under his breath. “It was really dangerous, hope that this will serve to lessen the stress over there at Young Master Dali’s side.” Upon thinking up to this point, Liu Mingxin laughed yet again and helplessly said, “That prodigal, he’s really scary. Unless I’m left with no choice, I really can’t afford to go against him...
“I’d long foreseen that there would be a match between our two families, but I didn’t think that it’d happen so fast. Looks like I’ll have to be extra careful in future and slowly develop it. However, looking at the way things are now, he seems to be doing rather well these days—those things that he has started up must have benefited him quite a lot. I must work harder too, let’s compare and see whether it’s your luck which is invincible or my ability which is higher, heh heh.
“It’s having such opponents that make life interesting...”
...
On the other hand, in Ye Lai Xiang’s top VIP room.
“What the heck! What the heck!” Mu Zixiao’s eyes were glued to the computer screen, so much so that his eyeballs almost dropped out. “It can’t be? This can actually happen?! It’s miraculous, absolutely miraculous!”
What he was currently watching was exactly tonight’s news broadcast!
As the eldest son of the Mu family, watching the latest news on current affairs was a very good habit as that could enable him to get to the bottom of the related policy directions with the fastest speed, to avoid himself making any mistakes in terms of decision making.
Thus, Mu Zixiao, too, watched the news tonight.
Upon watching that piece of news, he was instantly shocked.
With regards to Hong Dali, Mu Zixiao had done quite a bit of homework during this period of time. With the addition of more rumors heard, though he wasn’t sure of whether it was completely accurate, at least, he roughly still understood regarding the matters related to the pieces of land.
“The country wants to develop the West Fourth Loop, what does this news mean? It means that the value of the land there will skyrocket!” Mu Zixiao’s entire being was stunned. “At least from what I know, Dali’s side has Fengyuan Lake, Chenhui Building, Ye Lai Xiang and the surrounding estates, as well as the outer area of Tianjing Mountain with that big turtle—especially that big turtle, a mystical being akin to a symbol!
“Moreover, I heard that at his father Hong Weiguo’s side, they bought over 1 billion worth of land just to make him happy! And also, I heard that those pieces of land were all pieces of open land, open land with no constructions! Oh my god, this immediately brings over ten times the profit!
“This can’t do, I must tell my family about this matter.” As he said that, Mu Zixiao took his phone and called his home.
Very quickly, the call was answered, and a deep baritone sounded. “Zixiao, you’ve gone to Tianjing for such a long time, and you only thought of giving me a call now?” The person who was speaking was exactly Mu Zixiao’s father, the helmsman of the Mu Financial Group, Mu Tie.
“Dad, there’s an emergency!” Mu Zixiao anxiously said, “Have you watched tonight’s news broadcast?”
“I’ve watched it, what’s the matter?” Mu Tie curiously asked. “Is there anything special?”
“Of course! Would I be so anxious if there wasn’t anything special?” Mu Zixiao continued, “You’ve seen the news about the country developing the West Fourth Loop, right? The Hong Family’s side had bought more than 1 billion worth of land! More than 1 billion!”
“I’ve already heard about that,” Mu Tie’s voice was very calm. “I’ve heard that his side had invested into the land. To be honest, his luck is really quite good, even I have gotten a little envious too. But that doesn’t mean anything. It’s true that the land there will definitely be worth a lot of money, but the problem is that it will definitely take a long time. Its value won’t rise too fast in the short run.”
What he said was not wrong too.
The value of estates depends on national policies, its development by the real estate developers as well as its popularity. The problem is that none of these factors will be able to produce obvious results in the short run. Whether it was the real estate developer or the accumulation of its popularity, all those needed time, and not a short period of time as well.
“I know, the value of the land will increase two or three times as much with this policy. The problem is...” Mu Zixiao anxiously said, “The problem is that this does not concern only the national policy, there are other issues, big issues!”
“Oh? There are still big issues?” Mu Tie curiously asked, “What big issue? Oh right, I almost forgot to ask, what did you do by running over there?”
This issue had, to be honest, troubled him for a long time.
He was very curious what his son was up to by running to Tianjing instead of staying at home. Moreover, he went without coming back and didn’t even give him a call at all. Now that Mu Zixiao had taken the rare initiative to call him, he naturally had to ask and clarify things.
“It’s all because of Hong Dali,” Mu Zixiao explained. “The country wants to develop the West Fourth Loop all because of Hong Dali—Hong Family’s Hong Dali, that infamous superprodigal! Also... forget about it, I don’t dare to say what’s after this. Anyway, dad, don’t our family have difficulty in finding a business partner for a business service? Work with the Hong Family, it won’t go wrong! This time, you must listen to me!” As he spoke, he hung up the phone abruptly.
“That little rascal, he hung up when we hadn’t even finished speaking, who did he learn this bad habit from?” As he helplessly shook his head, Mu Tie touched his chin. “But Zixiao wouldn’t normally talk nonsense, and he’s asking me to work with the Hong Family, what is this situation now?”
“Quite a number of the business services of our two families overlap, it’s already not bad at all that we’re not fighting against each other in the business sector. Work with the Hong Family? That project holds huge importance, it’s worth billions of funds, and Zixiao just told me to find the Hong Family?” After he thought for a while, he still couldn’t understand. Thus, he called his assistant over. “Go and check whether there’s anything unusual with Hong Dali from the Hong Family.”
“Yes, Master.”
...
Hong Family estate.
The place where Hong Dali’s lackeys were locked up.
“Sister Xiaoyi, you’re back!” The moment Ling Xiaoyi returned, Tang Muxin anxiously came forward and asked, “Sister Xiaoyi, how’s the situation? Dali hasn’t been bullied, right?”
“Young Master is doing rather well in there.” Ling Xiaoyi smiled as she replied. She was still rather uneasy. However, once she thought of how she’d managed to fiercely stand up for Dali, she felt rather joyful. “When I went in, Young Master seemed to be sleeping, and he seemed to be sleeping rather soundly. As I made the report over there, those descendants below were exclaiming in surprise. Then, after there was silence, I could hear Young Master’s snores.”
“Hahahaha!” Tang Muxin laughed till her back was bent, and her eyes squinted to form the shapes of two crescent moons. She said, “That Dali, he’s so big-hearted! He’s even able to fall asleep at this kind of time, hee hee. But that’s good too, I get so annoyed just by seeing those fellow descendants of his. Look at their jealous faces just because Dali has a good family background and is favored.”
“That’s right,” Li Nianwei beside helplessly said. “Once jealousy strikes people, they’re prone to do unbecoming things. However, by looking at it differently, someone who doesn’t suffer from any jealousy is a mediocre person. With so many people jealous of Young Master, this proves that Young Master is very outstanding.”
“Sister Nianwei is always so kind and considerate.” Tang Muxin mimicked Hong Dali’s actions as she sniffled and said with a rough voice, “I like what you just said. Reward, 5,000!”
Everyone instantly roared with laughter.
While they were joking and playing around, suddenly, loud sounds of exclamation came out from inside the house, with the sound almost piercing through the heavens. “Ahhhhhh! Everybody quickly come and see ahhhhh! Young Master! Young Master is absolutely invincible ahhhhhhh!”
