Chapter 552: Too Messy

Jiang Yan swallowed her last “f*ck”. She suppressed the shock in her heart and looked at the balance on the interface. After making sure that she did not see wrongly, she could no longer hide the shock on her face. She looked at Su Yang as though she was looking at a ghost. “Is this your stock account?”

Su Yang took a sip of ice water and nodded. “Yes, that’s mine.”

Jiang Yan looked at her phone screen again. This time, she looked at it more seriously. She scrolled up and down to make sure that she was not looking at a fake interface. Then… her gaze stopped at the string of numbers on [Stock Profit/Loss: +271,250,000 yuan].

‘270 million yuan…’

Jiang Yan’s pupils constricted uncontrollably.

‘His total assets are 3.4 billion yuan and he has earned 270 million yuan. This means that his capital was only over 70 million yuan?

‘He’s earned more than four times!’

Actually, in terms of profit and loss rates, earning four times the capital may be surprising, but it was not very rare. However, the more money one had, the harder it would be to operate. This was not only a test of the trader’s ability and vision, but also a test of his courage and insight.

Who could resist selling after earning 10%? Even if they did, who could resist earning 100%, earning 100 million yuan, or even 200 million yuan?

Because of her understanding of Su Yang’s development, Jiang Yan gradually changed her opinion of him. But now, for the first time, she realized that she had terribly underestimated Su Yang. ‘This man before me… Seems to have more potential than I had imagined. No, I should say that he’s a lot more capable than I had imagined.

‘It seems like it’s really time for me to treat him as a true partner.

‘After all, Su Yang is no longer an ordinary person. Not only has he registered within the city, his assets are also close to one billion yuan. He’s no longer the poor student that I had met previously.’

With that thought in mind, Jiang Yan took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. She put down her phone and said to Su Yang, “Looks like I’ve underestimated you.”

Su Yang nodded confidently. “That’s true. That’s why I’m not short of money and I don’t need your help.”

Jiang Yan snapped her fingers and asked the waiter to bring her another glass of wine. She said, “But my thoughts haven’t changed. I still want to work with you and invest in your company.”

“If the company wants to develop, it will not be enough to rely on only its capital. It will need to be financed and split its shares. Even if you don’t give it to me in the future, you will have to give it to another company.

“Furthermore, sometimes, financing isn’t just about money, it involves connections as well. Only by investing in profits and bringing more people to your side to give you their resources and connections, can you develop faster.

“You’re not planning to do it alone forever, are you?”

‘Of course, I’m not that naive. I’ve chosen the path of building a company because I know that there’s a limit to a person’s power, but that power would be limitless when everyone comes together.

‘Even with the help of the system, if I could get more people to help me, would I be able to develop the system faster?

‘However, I must have the core in my hands!’

Hence, Su Yang replied, “I can accept your investment, but not the head office. I want absolute control over the head office.”

‘Su Yang isn’t talking about controlling shares, but control over his company.’ Jiang Yan immediately understood what Su Yang meant.

She picked up the wine that the waiter had given her and took a few sips. Then she thought about it and said, “Don’t worry, I’m not interested in your core technology, nor do I want to take it for myself or harm you. I just don’t want to miss out on the express train for a new era.”

As she said that, she tapped the phone that was still placed in front of her. “To put it bluntly, business-wise, the higher the level of technology you have developed, the more competitive our country will be in the world. Personal-wise, I’ll be able to earn a lot by bonding myself with you.”

“Even though I don’t understand why you have so many amazing technologies, I will not covet them. I have always believed that the core of a company is its founder and no one else can replace him. Even if you don’t believe me, you should believe in my grandfather.

Su Yang couldn’t help but think of Jiang Yan’s grandfather. ‘He was a key figure in the rise of the country’s economy who had endured humiliation for the country. Although he was met with countless criticism and confusion from the people, in later years, more and more people discovered this old man’s outstanding foresight and dedication to the country.’

Su Yang nodded. “Sure, I agree.”

Of course, the reason why Su Yang agreed to cooperate was not only because of Jiang Yan’s grandfather’s contribution, but also because when Jiang Yan said those words, Su Yang’s [Space Traversing Eyes] kept on popping notifications. [Sincere]. [Sincere], [Sincere]…

‘Since Jiang Yan is telling the truth and I do need a powerful background, it would be best for me to agree to her proposal.

‘However… The price definitely won’t be like what she proposed.’

Hence, Su Yang said, “Since you’re interested in technology, you can join my technology company. However, I’ll set the price. 200 million, 5%.”

Jiang Yan took a sip of wine, put down the glass, and reached out her hand without hesitation. “Deal.”

[Space Traversing Eyes] judged it as. [Serious].

Su Yang was shocked. ‘200 million yuan for 5% of the shares, this means it’s worth four billion yuan. And this is only my technology company, not the main company.

‘The reason why I dared to offer such a price was because I know my future potential. However, Jiang Yan actually agreed to it. This woman’s courage, willingness to gamble and foresight are too terrifying.

‘Especially when she failed to buy 10% of the company’s shares for 100 million yuan, she managed to adjust the gap so quickly… These people from prestigious families aren’t simple at all.

‘Since she’s already agreed, I no longer have to be worried about personal gains and losses. Anyway, as long as the core technology is in my hands and the shares of the main company aren’t scattered, it would be a good thing to have another party backing me up.

‘5% of my shares to buy the protection of one of the strongest forces in the country is definitely worth it. Not to mention the income of two “small targets”.

‘I shouldn’t underestimate the value of my “small targets”…’

Su Yang smiled and reached out to shake Jiang Yan’s hand. “Deal.”

After the two of them came to an agreement, they enjoyed the rest of the night. It was not until Jiang Yan was drunk and Su Yang’s stomach was bursting that they left.

When they reached home, Su Yang went to the toilet to resolve his private matters before asking Little Deeny, “Little Deeny, how’s the public opinion on the internet?”

Little Deeny said, “Master, this time, the enemy has a special public relations team. They are coming in with a strong momentum, so Little Bun wasn’t able to suppress them at all. In less than a day, the matter of the big shot of Baoshan District being reported became a hot topic. Everyone is waiting for the results from Shanghai.”

“And because you were also reported, the amount of messages being thrown was overwhelming. Many people started to question whether you have any background or whether you had really bribed the relevant departments to get all the support you have.

Su Yang nodded. “Don’t worry. It’ll all be fine in a few days.”

After that, Su Yang washed up and removed the [Three Days Without Sleep Halo]. He then returned to his bed and fell asleep.

He did sleep, but the storm he caused did not dissipate. Instead, it became more intense…

…

In the living room of an apartment in Shanghai.

Wang Dong was smoking on the sofa in the living room. The smoke was lingering, and Wang Dong’s face was faintly discernible in the smoke.

His girlfriend stood beside him and asked softly, “Is what they’re saying about Mr. Su true?”

Wang Dong puffed out a mouthful of smoke and shook his head a little dispiritedly. “I don’t know.”

His girlfriend was confused. “How could you not know? You’re a veteran of the company and the person he trusts the most. How could he hide something like that from you?”

Wang Dong shook his head with a bitter smile. “I’m not anymore. He’s been developing too quickly this year. I can’t keep up with his footsteps at all. It’s already been a long time since I talked to him.”

“Huh?” His girlfriend said in surprise, “How did this happen?”

Wang Dong counted in detail. “Look, he has seven companies in his hands now. One is a film company, one is a management agency, one is a health supplements company, one is an E-Commerce company, one is a technology company, one is a food company and one is a mysterious head company. My ability is limited, so I was eliminated long ago.”

“He’s too busy to have time to chat with a veteran like me.”

His girlfriend then said, “How long has it been since he started his career and he already has so many companies? Could the person who reported him online be telling the truth? Could he really have bribed someone in the district to develop so quickly?”

“I don’t know.” Wang Dong shook his head, feeling a little dispirited.

After a while, he took a deep puff of the cigarette and his gaze wavered. Suddenly, he changed the topic. “My dear, not long ago, another business company wanted to poach me. They gave me twice the salary of Jiadian. Although I won’t have any shares, I would have some authority. The overall treatment is much better than Jiadian. What do you think…”

…

In a high-class district in Shanghai.

Producer Zhao was tossing and turning in bed. He was holding his phone. On the screen was an email from a headhunter. It was an invitation from a film company. Not only did the company give him more autonomy and a higher salary, but they also promised to fully support him in filming the movie he wanted.

Producer Zhao’s face was reflected on the screen. It was filled with conflict.

After a while, he exited the email and went online to search for Su Yang’s report. He looked at it for a long time without sleeping…

…

In Han Yi’s home in Zhongdu.

Han Yi was wearing a pair of lace pajamas as she laid on the bed. She held her phone up and stared at the news on the screen with her mouth agape. Beside her was an open bag of Mimi shrimp strips.

“Su Yang… Is my fan? No! That fan is my boss?!”

“This is ridiculous! Is today April Fool’s Day?”

Han Yi’s hand was still stuck in the shrimp strip, while her face was filled with confusion.

Recently, she had been terminating her contract with Jiahang and had to sign a contract with a new company to consolidate her team. Hence, she had been very busy and had just settled everything that day, hence she returned home to rest for two days. However, when she went online, she suddenly received such shocking news…

Han Yi let go of the prawn stick and searched for Su Yang’s latest news online. After reading it, she finally believed in this magical reality.

Her eyes were empty as she mumbled, “Did my fan sign me? I’m probably the first artist to have been signed by a fan, am I not?”

“And this fan of mine earns money from bribing the related personnel? Isn’t this too messy?”

“Is this world too magical or am I too naive?”

Just as Han Yi was mumbling on the bed, her mind was in a mess. Her hand slipped, and her phone landed on her exotic face with a “Splat”.

“Ouch.” Han Yi covered her nose as she cried from the pain.

As she rubbed her nose, she decided to ask her assistant to buy her a lighter cell phone tomorrow so that… Smashing herself with it would not hurt.

…

The incident continued to brew in Su Yang’s sleep. To many people, it was merely a topic of conversation after a meal. However, to many people around Su Yang, the matter kept escalating…

The next morning, Su Yang woke up and habitually opened a virtual interface. He wanted to see what the public opinion was like online.

In the end, he realized that not only had the public exploded online, there were also many posts and news that analyzed the matter…
