Chapter 210: Family Meeting (Part Twelve)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In fact, everyone present did not have the heart to listen any more of what was said later.

“This report is in accordance with the latest resolution passed down from the central government. Due to the unique location, beautiful surroundings, and bountiful travel resources available at the West Fourth Loop in Tianjing City, the government has decided to increase its speed of development. The exact plan is as follows...”

Upon listening to the presenter on the screen towards the end, the entire big conference room exploded!

“God, quickly pinch me. I’m not dreaming, am I?”

“Don’t pinch you, pinch me instead! That’s cheating! That’s utter cheating! Because of Dali, Fifth Uncle bought a whole 950 million worth of housing estate land at the West Fourth Loop! What the heck!”

“That’s right, that’s right, this is totally cheating! 950 million worth of housing estate land, plus this policy, won’t that immediately increase many times in value in no time?”

“Many times? Not only that, right? The pieces of land that Fifth Uncle bought are definitely ordinary ones, empty pieces of land without any construction! How much are those worth? Once this policy is administered, not to say those pieces of land, just that housing estate development alone, how much money will that earn already?!”

“Ten times, I reckon, it’s probably not a problem to increase ten times from what I see. 950 million worth of investments, ten billion worth of yieldings. This...”

“Heh heh... Heh heh... I definitely came in the wrong way today... That... how is that possible...”

“Is that Dali an illegitimate son of God? He can’t play it this way!”

Hong Tu and the other elders were stunned. Hong Tu subconsciously asked Hong Wei, “Second Brother, quickly give me a pinch. This is true, right?”

Hong Wei pinched Hong Tu hard. “Does it hurt?”

“It hurts!” Hong Tu was certain as he said, “Seems like this is real! Over 900 million worth of land! The land is worth a whole 900 million and above. That child Dali is seriously... Is he by any chance really God’s favorite?”

“I think that’s pretty much the case!” Hong Wei nodded in affirmation.

Hong Ying, who was beside him, said, “Dali, you have a great fortune!”

Actually, speaking of which, one billion, five billion or even ten billion may not make Hong Tu lose control of himself like that. It was just that Hong Dali’s luck was too good to be true. Because he squandered, he had started so many things up, and almost all of them were extremely lucrative. That’s it. Because the land he bought was actually in time for its development by the country and increase in value by ten times at the least!

Actually, all these could be explained with much difficulty. However, the key was that this piece of news did not come earlier or later, but just in time for today—this luck was definitely against the will of the heavens!

Hong Jianye sat heavily back into his chair and mumbled, “It’s over... It’s over... that... that...” All of a sudden, he exclaimed loudly, “Am I still not awake yet?!” Afterward, he desperately pinched his thigh—and it was the base of his thigh—and once he exerted force, tears almost streamed down his face...

Hong Anbao was so frightened that his face had turned pale, and he almost crawled under the table. “This... What kind of monster is that? That’s cheating, you can’t play the game like that... I’m finished... finished...”

He mumbled for a while when suddenly, he pounced towards Hong Dali as if he’d gone crazy. “No! No! Return me my estates! Return me my estates! You’re despicable! You’re shameless! You’ve used tricks to cheat me of my estates! Return those estates to me! Return them to me!”

24 million worth of estates, had it been in the past, he might not have cared so much about it since he had acquired it at a price of more than 21 million. And by selling it to Hong Dali for 24 million, it was considered profitable for him.

However, now that the country had this set of policy. What was the country’s policy? To develop it fully! That was popularity, that was the visitors’ flowrate! That building property initially worth 24 million skyrocketed throughout in the blink of an eye—two times, three times, four times, it could probably easily achieve an increase of five times as much!

What concept was that? In the blink of an eye, those estates could be sold at a price of over 100 million!

Over 100 million!

Hong Anbao had desperately fought to get into the top three of the Family rankings, which could only get him 50 million worth of development funds!

But what about those estates? It could be said that he didn’t have to do anything and still earn over 100 million worth of funds!

Therefore, how could he, Hong Anbao, not be anxious?

Unfortunately, as much as he didn’t care about losing face, others couldn’t let him continue his willful actions.

Hong Tu slapped the table hard and shouted. “How dare you! Did you think you can cause such a disturbance here?!”

Upon his loud exclamation, a few descendants around him instantly grabbed Hong Anbao’s arm firmly and pinned him to the ground. Even then, Hong Anbao was still crying and weeping like he was grieving at a funeral, shouting loudly, “You’re despicable! Shameless! Give me my estates back! Give them back to me!” He screamed for a while again, after which he wailed and whined. “My estates! My estates!”

Soon after, he slapped himself repeatedly, weeping. “My estates! My estates!”

Hong Jianye’s entire face turned deadly pale, and he didn’t even have any energy left to care about him.

Those estates had caused him to suffer a loss of 100 million, how could his heart not ache?!

In fact, had he not needed to be mindful that this was a family meeting, he would have even wanted to give Hong Anbao a hard kick!

Meanwhile, the protagonist of the whole incident, our super prodigal Hong Dali, was still sleeping rather soundly. “Hu... Hu...”

...

Tianjing City, Sangle building, in the big conference room on the 16th floor.

Though it was already past 7:00 PM, Sangle’s executives had still not left the office and were all gathered to hold an emergency meeting.

“Looks like Liu Yihui has accurately guessed that our Hong Family would be holding a family meeting during these few days. I have to go.” Hong Weiguo stared at the report in front of him with knitted brows. “His business has expanded so rapidly just within a short two days’ time.”

An executive below nodded and said, “Yes, six business services of his—Turkey Space, Turkey Chess Cards, Turkey Music, Turkey Online Gaming, Turkey Search, as well as Turkey Level System have all continuously expanded within these few days. The combination of these blows is not easy to deal with.”

Another executive agreed and said, “His commercials are overwhelming, Turkey Bookstore is already considered as being discarded now. When Young Master Dali’s Zhong Dian website had taken over Turkey Bookstore previously, we were very puzzled. However, looking at it now, he’s totally trying to paralyze us by giving up the bookstore, just like a warrior breaking his wrist. So far, he has indeed succeeded. At least, our current amount of liquid funds are still far from enough to go head-on against him.

“Right, I’ve invested quite a lot of money in the housing estates there, about 1.2 billion or so. Thus, the current amount of liquid funds can hardly make ends meet.” Speaking of the liquid funds, Hong Weiguo, too, had a huge headache. The money that he had invested in real estate was, in fact, 200 million more than what Hong Jianye had mentioned. However, this was no longer important. How he was going to deal with the crisis ahead was what he really needed to consider. However, the family meeting just had to be held these two days, he could give the meeting for the election of the young and outstanding disciples a miss, but he had to go for it afterward no matter what.

There was also one more thing which made him worried. Due to the incident which happened at the family meeting, the family had a large scale of capital which could not be used, and even if it could be used, it would be too late by then. Once Turkey Bookstore’s morale was stimulated in the earlier part, it would be incomparably difficult to solve the problem in the later part.

“CEO Hong, don’t mention those things first in case you get too anxious and agitated.” An executive said in a low voice. “At the moment, we still have around 700 million worth of liquid funds, this money currently is only enough to be used to deal with one or two large-scale projects. It would be too tight if we were to deal with all of them. Therefore, CEO Hong, as our helmsman, what you need to consider now is how to use this money to deal with the other party’s business services. My personal suggestion is that you ignore everything else and crush Turkey Search, as this is our core business service.”

“I agree.” “I agree.” “I agree.” “I agree.”

With regards to this point that he had brought up, the executives below were not fools. Thus, they all naturally understood that the Sangle Search Engine was the most important part of all. Thus, once that executive brought it up, it instantly garnered everyone’s approval.

“Alright, but...” Hong Weiguo naturally understood what the core part of his business was. At the moment, he was stroking his chin while looking at the files on the desk and mumbled. “He’s started up these all at once, it’s definitely not as simple as it seems.” However, he himself could not think of what it was exactly for the time being, and at once, the entire conference room was silent to the maximum, left with only the sounds of breathing from everyone present.

The atmosphere was depressing yet oppressive at the same time.

“Six business services, six...” He mumbled for a while again when, all of a sudden, an idea suddenly occurred to him, and he finally understood the tactic used by the other party. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, “Looks like he’s played something big this time. Heh heh, I knew it, Liu Yihui will not easily strike, but once he does it, it will be a big one. If we only handle one or two projects, we will fall right into his trap.”

“Trap?” Upon hearing this, the executives sitting below instantly became curious.

“That’s right, it’s a trap.” Hong Weiguo pointed at the information on the television screen at the side and slowly said, “Do you still remember the information we received previously? The information that this time, Liu Yihui has gathered a whole 3 billion worth of funds?”

“We all know that, please continue, CEO Hong.” All the executives glanced at one another and nodded.

For companies like Sangle and Turkey, there would normally be spies planted into them by various large companies. They didn’t necessarily need to steal trade secrets, but they could basically manage to acquire some information related to that company’s various large-scale decisions and plans to avoid being caught by surprise at crucial moments.

This time, the big move made by Turkey’s DIrector, Liu Yihui, was done with relatively good security measures. However, fortunately, Hong Weiguo had managed to grasp some large-scale liquid funds. Otherwise, the current situation would instead become more passive.

“Alright, I’ll say it then.” Hong Weiguo said with a deep voice. “This time, he has started up six business services, which are Turkey Space, Turkey Chess Cards, Turkey Music, Turkey Online Gaming, Turkey Search, as well as Turkey Level System. Has everyone realized that these six services are dependent on Turkey Messenger Software, and they’ve even made a communication button? Not to mention its functions, the most important problem is that it’s extremely convenient.

“Now that Turkey Messenger Software is literally used by everyone, everyone knows that its properties are almost the same as our Sangle Search Engine. To create all these functions and connections for such a wide reach is extremely difficult to do. Moreover, 3 billion were all thrown into the Turkey benefits given out by downloading the application.”

“With our current mere 700 million worth of funds, in the face of such an attack, it’s completely inadequate to deal with it.”
