He won 900 million in the lottery.

Chapter 306 Abyss

Back to the provincial capital.

Southern Province Chamber of Commerce.

Upon entering the Chamber of Commerce president's office, one sees Wang Jianxing frowning, with a large pile of reports in front of him.

"What's wrong, making Chairman Wang scratch his head like that?"

"Brother Shen, you've finally arrived. Come and take a look at the financial statements; Secretary Wen brought them."

I took the report and put it aside, then calmly took out a bottle of Jiuzhizun cigarettes and handed one to the other person.

"Take a drag, calm down, and speak slowly."

"In less than two years, we spent nearly 500 billion yuan and only captured one-fifth of the market."

"Not bad, you guys are pretty fast."

Wang Jianxing looked worried: "But the fund pool is already insufficient."

"The entire Southern Province Chamber of Commerce can't raise 1000 billion? You must be joking, Brother Wang."

"Some people are optimistic about this, while others are not. We can't expect everyone to keep up with us."

"That's true. What are your thoughts?"

"Let major institutions and banks come in."

"No way."

I have the final say on this matter; no matter how much money Wang Jianxing contributes, it doesn't count.

Why?

"The money from institutions and banks is meant to support small and micro enterprises. If it's invested in our projects, we'll see returns, but what about the business environment in Southern Province?"

Wang Jianxing was taken aback for a moment, then looked up at me as if he were meeting me for the first time: "How come I didn't realize that Brother Shen had the world on his mind?"

"Do you think I'm investing heavily in industries that benefit people's livelihoods to exploit them? I'm doing this to lower the cost of living for the people of Southern Province, so that those who couldn't survive can survive."

"Isn't this a monopoly, a business that can make money?"

"Who says monopolies have to be profitable? This is a business that costs money, can't you see? It's a hole of over 200 billion yuan that all the wealthy people in the entire Southern Province need to fill!"

Wang Jianxing's face gradually turned liver-colored, not because he felt ashamed of his lack of cultivation, but because he was angry with me!

"You lied to me!"

I crossed my legs and shifted to a more comfortable position on the sofa: "When did I ever lie to you?"

"You said you wanted to monopolize the water, coal, thermal power plants, and natural gas resources of the entire southern province, and then become the largest private enterprise in the province!"

"Yes, I didn't say anything wrong. But did I say I wanted to make money?"

I made Wang Jianxing so angry he almost couldn't catch his breath!

"500 billion! Do you know how much of my life savings I've staked?! I've guaranteed it with my own life and the integrity of my own uncle!"

"Don't be angry. Respond to me, and I will give each of you a satisfactory explanation."

"How are you going to explain this?!"

Wang Jianxing's voice was a bit loud, and his assistant outside the door closed the door on his own.

"You've already invested 500 billion, so another 500 billion won't make a difference. I'll take care of the remaining 1000 billion, how about that?"

Wang Jianxing had given up on talking to me: "You? Where did you get 1000 billion?"

"You'll know when you bring in the remaining 500 billion in investment."

"I don't care, just give me this 500 billion, and I'll waive the financing costs for the next two years."

"Now that things have come to this, a refund is even more out of the question!"

"I'm calling the police!"

"Zhou Fan, the deputy secretary of the Party Committee and executive deputy director of the Provincial Public Security Department, is my father-in-law. You investigated me. Your uncle from the Provincial Finance Department and his associates are now eating at the same table, calling each other brothers."

Wang Jianxing looked at me with eyes that were almost red, like he was going to eat me alive.

"Brother Wang, don't be anxious. We have no past grudges or recent conflicts, and I would never harm you. Hasn't Ya Hong Group also invested a considerable amount of money?"

After listening to my words, Wang Jianxing gradually calmed down.

"What do you suggest we do next?"

"The Southern Province Chamber of Commerce can't raise money, but there are still many rich people in the Southern Province. Like Long Wu, they can create a circle of second-generation officials, layer upon layer, and get them to invest their money."

"You're insane!"

"What's wrong with you? In Liancheng, any cadre above the section chief level, even if they don't have money, they have to take out a loan to invest it!"

Wang Jianxing stared at me with wide eyes.

He pointed at me with his finger for a long time, but couldn't say a word.

That's absolutely outrageous!

He could not even imagine just how powerful I was in Liancheng!

"Let me tell you straight, I have four department-level officials behind me, and one of them might be promoted to a powerful vice-ministerial position next year and come to the provincial capital. If you're obedient, you'll have to scrape together the remaining 50 billion; otherwise, I can't guarantee your uncle won't retire early and go to the CPPCC!"

Wang Jianxing's lips were full of bitterness.

We're not even in the same league. I'm even more ruthless and vicious than Longwu.

500 billion! You can't clear your name even if you jump into the Yellow River.

"But I really can't get that money."

"Are you stupid? The integrated hydropower and gas operation project has government backing and is publicly funded. As long as it's money from the public, whether it's from officials, business people, second-generation rich kids, or anyone else, we'll take it!"

If this is a bubble, Wang Jianxing at least has the intention of running away.

However, this is an abyss, an abyss into which the Wang family has already sunk halfway!

"You said you would give us what we want?"

"Of course, I keep my word and never brag."

Wang Jianxing nodded emphatically. He didn't understand what I was playing at, but his own understanding told him that with so many leaders involved, the whole thing wouldn't collapse!

"Let's do it. We'll build a decent clubhouse tomorrow."

A thought suddenly struck me: "Does the club need any agents?"

Wang Jianxing covered his head: "If President Shen has someone, please introduce one. I'm already overwhelmed."

"Wu Yingrong used to help Qiu Zhanyu run a club, so she has experience and does things very well."

Wang Jianxing nodded in agreement.

He's calmed down now. I've already sent two section chiefs to jail: Qiu Zhanyu is one, and Lu Angxing is the one I had a verbal altercation with once!

Wang Jianxing couldn't imagine what would happen if it really affected his own uncle.

Will the Wang family tear me apart...?

I left the Chamber of Commerce and went to the DJ Short Drama Film and Television Company.

Even after the company was sold to the Chen family, its performance remained excellent.

Private office.

A dark solid wood tea table is placed by the window, with two black leather armchairs. Two people are sitting opposite each other, drinking tea.

Chen Yuanyuan styled her black hair into a low bun, wore no heavy makeup, and wore a black fitted suit jacket over a white silk shirt, paired with black wide-leg trousers and black low-heeled leather shoes. As expected of someone who has given birth, her figure was noticeably fuller.

She sat at the head of the tea table, her elbows resting lightly on the surface, chatting and laughing with Wu Yingrong across from her.

Across from her, Wu Yingrong appeared to be quite slender, with long black hair draped over her shoulders and a sky-blue hair accessory. She wore a blue and white porcelain cheongsam, held a teacup in both hands, tilted her head slightly, and looked at Chen Yuanyuan. Her figure remained charming and alluring.

"Hey, look who's here!"
