Bai Qiuqin then snapped out of her daze, shaking her head and saying, "No, I didn't ask. But as far as I know, he only plays the stock market a small part of his life, and he stopped after making two or three hundred million. In his words, making money this way is too easy; even a fool could do it, it's meaningless. He doesn't seem to have much need for money; he's more focused on developing his so-called cutting-edge experiments."

"Oh, what kind of cutting-edge experiments?" Bai Qingyang seemed very interested. "If it's suitable, we can invest."

The Bai family also has its own core industry: the aviation industry. It's an industry that manufactures and maintains aircraft, among the world's top. Those who can tinker with airplanes are mostly wealthy people. They can make a fortune just from the maintenance and upkeep of private jets.

Bai Qiuqin shook her head. "I don't know, but I heard that the leukemia drug is only one of them. The drug has actually been developed, but we can't get the data, and we don't know the specific ingredients at all, so we can only wait for them to announce it. Of the ten leukemia patients I'm in charge of, nine are in the late stage. Eight have recovered now, and one is still hospitalized, but he's completely cured. However, his condition is quite complex; it's a hybrid of HIV and leukemia, which is more difficult to treat."

This made the Bai family members' minds race. Zhao An's talent was undeniable. As long as he didn't join the Bai family, he would be a great partner. Especially if he didn't side with the head of the family, that would be perfect.

Zhao An's nickname was "money tree." Whatever he did was a money tree. Whatever industry he entered, it made money. It might seem like he was doing live streaming, but live streaming now generates a lot of revenue every day, especially on key video platforms that attract a lot of netizens. The content on those platforms is incredibly diverse. Live streaming has become a less important source of income; the real money is made in the unseen areas.

Who wouldn't like a money tree? So when news of Zhao An broke, everyone was incredibly excited. If Zhao An weren't so difficult to meet, the line to have tea with him would probably stretch hundreds of kilometers—that's no exaggeration.

Although Zhao An has a lot of scandals, he's a top student, a genius, and a very successful entrepreneur. These are just gossip; it doesn't matter what happens to someone who's not married. Money talks, and there's nothing anyone can do about him. He has tons of fans, and even haters can't touch him.

"I don't know. If I have the chance, I'll keep asking. Zhao An has many experiments; any one of them could make money. He said the future is the internet age, and you can make money through the internet," Bai Qiuqin answered honestly. She was actually thinking of flying back to find Zhao An and asking him what he was really up to.

"Yes, after the meeting, go ask Zhao An what his thoughts are. If he has time, invite him to the family home for a chat. We're all family; there's nothing we can't discuss. Some business deals, if we don't do them, someone else will," Bai Qingyang nodded. As for how his sister would persuade Zhao An, that was up to her. If she liked using seduction, that was fine too; it was all permissible.

"I understand," Bai Qiuqin nodded. She was indeed becoming increasingly curious, wishing she could crack open Zhao An's head and see what he was thinking.

The Lin family was in a similar situation, but their attitude was much more moderate. As a low-profile family, they often lacked presence, possessing great strength but remaining inconspicuous.

Lin Yuanyuan and Lin Mei'e, who had attended the meeting, also returned, both somewhat puzzled. When they were with Zhao An, they rarely had any contact with his businesses; it was all just casual sex and nothing more. Now, she was pregnant, and abortion was impossible, but giving birth would cause problems. Women from prominent families also have their pride and need a way to save face, not to be treated like sex toys, to be used however one pleases.

With the financial crisis looming, those with warnings prepared in advance; those without, well, good luck to them. Whether they die or not is uncertain, but they'll certainly be crippled.

Meanwhile, a charming, tall woman arrived at Zhao An's company. "Hello, I'm here to see your boss. My name is Bai Yue. Mr. Zhao saved my mother last time, and I'm here to thank him. Please pass on my message, thank you."

The receptionists were all quite attractive, and they had all experienced debauchery; they even knew how big Zhao An's penis was. "Okay, we'll pass it on. Please leave your phone number, and we'll notify you if there's any news."

"Okay, thank you." Bai Yue left her phone number and left. She was just trying her luck. Clinging to a powerful figure would be ideal, but if not, she'd think of other ways.

The receptionist forwarded the message to the secretarial department, where several female secretaries would periodically check for such less urgent messages. Further decisions will only be made after assessing the value.

Her cousin, Huizhi, saw the message, stroking her round belly with a strange expression. Was this another woman who had cheated on her husband and then found another woman at the company? Actually, this type of woman wasn't uncommon, but they would always verify first. She thought for a moment, then picked up the phone to confirm, deciding whether to send it to Zhao An only after speaking with him personally.

Many women use this tactic to approach Zhao An, but it's nothing new. Where there's a situation, there's a corresponding strategy; it's not a big deal.

At this time, Hong Kong was also in turmoil. Almost everyone there built their fortunes on the financial industry. The real estate market was extremely expensive, and the geographical environment attracted many overseas people, making it a natural advantage for those doing finance. Now, the financial crisis erupted in Europe and America, further impacting the Hong Kong stock market.

With capital running out, it was necessary to exchange funds from various places to tide things over. Other overseas investments could be put on hold for now; preserving the initial capital was the priority. The impact of this large-scale financial crisis is multifaceted. If one point is breached, it will trigger an avalanche-like effect that is unstoppable. There are too many blind speculators who are afraid of losing money if they sell their futures and stocks too late!
