How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 435

Buffett is Anxious. What’s Wrong with Me Having Some Money as a Ride-Hailing Driver?

Buffett is Anxious

Adina’s funeral was held at the same time as the Hillman father and son’s funeral, which made some neutral people feel embarrassed.

They wanted to pay respects to both families, but deciding which funeral the head of the family should attend became a problem.

If the head of the family attended the Hillman father and son’s funeral, sending his wife or children to Adina’s funeral, the Second Prince would inevitably feel they were biased towards the First Prince.

Conversely, if the head of the family attended Adina’s funeral, and his wife or children attended the Hillman father and son’s funeral, the First Prince would definitely feel they were biased towards the Second Prince.

No matter how difficult it was, they had to make a choice.

Mordan was the eldest son and the rightful heir.

Therefore, almost all neutral parties sent the heads of their families to attend the Hillman father and son’s funeral, and sent their wives or children to attend Adina’s funeral.

The First Prince saw that the people attending the Hillman father and son’s funeral were all heads of families, and a smug smile appeared on his lips.

“These people are quite smart and know how to choose,” Mordan thought to himself.

On the other side, the Second Prince felt very uncomfortable seeing that those who came to Adina’s funeral were mostly women and children.

……

The bad debts of Guofu Bank are too high. It is estimated that more than 10 billion U.S. dollars in bad debts will need to be provisioned this year, and its asset-liability ratio is as high as 90%, operating with more than ten times leverage.

Saving their own skins was paramount, so they all seized the opportunity to pledge their allegiance under the guise of congratulating Havide on becoming the Crown Prince.

Old Dad wiped his tears and said, “Okay, stop crying. Mordan has gone to meet Allah [God in Islam], we should be happy for him. Calm down and prepare to send Mordan to his final rest.”

Havide nodded, his eyes filled with determination and ruthlessness.

As long as the old King intended to establish a Crown Prince, it was almost certain to be Havide.

Maya immediately kissed Yang Chen and said, “Everything I have is yours, including my life. I will be loyal to you in this lifetime. My concerns are twofold: first, my ability, and second, that as a woman, I may not be able to effectively manage them. In your Dragon Kingdom [China], men and women are equal, and no one criticizes women for being strong and successful. But here, the status of women is relatively low, and they will definitely not accept me as chairman.”

Yang Chen: “Search it online yourself.”

Without exception, news reports stated they didn’t know how there could be so many heavy weapons, but the news had already exposed their secret purchase of heavy weapons to fight for the throne. Who would believe they really didn’t know how these weapons ended up in their homes?

Havide received the news and jumped up and down happily at home.

Havide: “Haha… I understand! Then everything is entrusted to Mr. Yang. I’ll go back first, good night, Mr. Yang.”

However, according to the system rules, he would still die in the same way after a year.

Yang Chen: “Don’t worry, no matter what the result is, it won’t affect our relationship.”

Mordan’s funeral ended, and Havide met with Yang Chen.

“What’s going on? Wasn’t my brother fine yesterday? Why did he suddenly become like this?” Havide asked with “teary eyes.”

She still didn’t have confidence in herself, but she wanted to try to change the status of women.

Havide pinched his thigh hard, and it hurt so much that tears came out,

because he was afraid that the tears would dry quickly, so he quickly ran over.

Although they did not explicitly name Havide as the Crown Prince, it seemed that no one was more suitable for the position.

Maya: “Then… oh, I’m still a little scared. Then let’s make an agreement: no matter what the result is, it can’t affect the relationship between us. If you promise me, I’ll try.”

But now the situation is different. Entrepreneurship Bank is already preparing for bankruptcy applications, and many executives have already started withdrawing cash. Once the executives have completed their withdrawals, they will announce bankruptcy.

Yang Chen could remain calm, but Havide couldn’t.

Because of religious beliefs, even the First Prince was buried quickly and simply.

Therefore, what they are most concerned about now is not the funeral of the First Prince, but their own future.

The next day, the UAE officially issued an announcement establishing the Second Prince Havide as the Crown Prince.

As long as Havide speaks, they will never bargain.

Yang Chen: “I have personally put you in that position, and the next step depends on your own performance. I want to reiterate my stance: I can put you up there, and I can also bring you down, and even make you inherit a heart condition like your brother. Of course, if you are confident that you can compete with the killers of Starlight Defense, you can also ignore my reminder.”

What he needs now is time to recuperate, and he will be fine in a few months.

Yang Chen: “You have one year to prove yourself, and I will be watching how you handle things.”

At this time, Havide received a call from his father, asking him to go to the hospital to see his brother.

“Success! Success! Haha…” Havide shouted happily.

Havide: “Mr. Yang, although my brother is dead, my father still has no intention of establishing a Crown Prince for the time being. Do you have any way to make him establish me as the Crown Prince as soon as possible?”

Moreover, in order to win, they are secretly buying heavy weapons.

She felt that what Yang Chen said was right. Every right is earned. If you don’t fight for it, no one will give it to you for free.

However, Yang Chen was not at all relieved about Lansheed. If he dared to be cruel and knock Maya unconscious, he would dare to do even more vicious things.

The doctor next to him quickly said: “That’s right, staying up late for a long time will cause heart rhythm disorders. If you work too hard, it is easy to die suddenly. This is basic medical knowledge; we would never make such a mistake.”

Buffett has held shares in Guofu Bank for 30 years. Losing this investment is a small matter, but it will have a very bad impact on his reputation.

Old Dad nodded with satisfaction, then turned around and left under the escort of bodyguards.

Yang Chen: “Oh… let’s see this through to the end. I’ll take care of the public opinion. You don’t have to do anything these days; just stay at home quietly and mourn your brother.”

“His Royal Highness Prince Havide, the First Prince suddenly collapsed clutching his heart. He is now being sent to the hospital, and his life and death are unknown.”

Maya: “Okay. Then it’s settled. You have to come to me when you have time, and I’ll come to you when I have time.”

The old King couldn’t sit still and immediately sent people to investigate the princes who were named in the news.

Stock investors always buy when the price goes up and not when it goes down. Even if Buffett wanted to sell his shares, he couldn’t find anyone to take them over.

Therefore, the stock price of Guofu Bank has fallen by more than 30% in the past two days.

Maya opened her eyes wide in surprise and said, “No, no, I can’t be the chairman. I don’t have the talent for this. What if I mess it up for you? You spent so much money to control these shares; I can’t let it be ruined because of my incompetence.”

The key is that Starlight Investment is shorting Guofu Bank this time, which will have a huge impact.

Buffett had, of course, already received the news. He knew very well how bad the impact would be once Entrepreneurship Bank declared bankruptcy. It would be like the first domino; when it fell, the banks behind it would fall one after another.

Early the next morning, Yang Chen took Maya back to China.

But if the sons of other princes also join the competition, the situation will be serious.

Lansheed was out of danger, and his injuries were slowly recovering.

Havide: “Haha… okay, okay. Let’s just say that for now, and you just wait and see my performance.”

At Adina’s funeral, the Second Prince Havide received a text message from his subordinate.

Havide understood what Yang Chen meant and said, “But it’s not easy for me to take action here. Can Mr. Yang help me?”

Everyone was even more curious about what kind of operation it was that Starlight Investment had joined forces with Berkshire Hathaway [Warren Buffett’s company] to short the oil industry and then short Guofu Bank, which Berkshire had held for 30 years.

Ordinary people cannot understand the world of big shots, but the shareholders of Guofu Bank are very clear about one thing: run away quickly, or you will fall to the price of cabbage like Jinbai Oil and Gas.

They didn’t expect Havide to be so smart and ruthless, and actually used this method to successfully win the position of Crown Prince, and also cleaned up several opponents along the way.

However, it doesn’t matter if others don’t believe it, as long as Old Dad believes that he is truly sad for his brother.

Starlight Investment joined forces with Berkshire to short and harvest the oil industry, which made a great name for itself and established its reputation in the global investment community.

The old King smiled when he saw the news, and then his expression gradually became serious.

If he hadn’t been worried that Lansheed’s death would involve Zhang Lijun, Yang Chen wouldn’t have bothered to spend the life points he had worked so hard to accumulate to save him.

Yang Chen: “Okay. I hope you can become the “Li Shimin” [Tang Dynasty emperor known for his wise rule] of your country and benefit the people of your country.”

Because he thought from the title that it was just his sons fighting for the position of Crown Prince, but the news content said that the sons of other princes also wanted to fight for the position of Crown Prince.

Havide turned to look at Yang Chen, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he whispered back: “They will pay the price for today’s choice! Mr. Yang, please be sure to help me to the end; I promise to repay you with a lifetime of loyalty.”

Those who supported Mordan are now panicked. It seems that the position of Crown Prince belongs to Havide. Once he succeeds in taking the throne, he will definitely punish those who were once his enemies.

Yang Chen: “Haha… you don’t have to worry about these problems. The CEO is the one who is truly responsible for the company’s management and operation. As long as the CEO is capable enough, you, as the chairman, don’t have to worry about management and operation at all. I have thought about it carefully these days. A Dragon Kingdom person controlling the oil lifeline of your country—not to mention that people in your country are unwilling—some countries will not be willing and will definitely cause me trouble. Therefore, in order to avoid this trouble, it is the best choice for you to come forward on my behalf.

is the best choice. You don’t need to consider personal ability issues; you only need to consider whether you can be loyal to me forever.”

“You all wait for me; when I take the throne, I will settle the score with you slowly!” Havide thought to himself.

Yang Chen had also received the report and gave Havide a calm look.

If it were normal, it would basically not explode.

Maya put down her cutlery, quickly sat on Yang Chen’s lap, hugged his neck, and replied very seriously: “There will never be such a day; if there is, then I will definitely end myself before betraying you.”

When he arrived at the hospital, the royal family members were already crying.

Yang Chen: “When things are stable, I can come to you at any time, and you can come to me at any time. Romantic love is not everything; we should always have some achievements.”

At the funeral of the Hillman father and son, the First Prince was carrying Hamdan’s body when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, and then his body tilted to the side.

Yang Chen smiled and said, “Starlight Investment holds 62% of the shares of Jinbai Oil and Gas Company, which is too eye-catching. No one in the world dares to hold so many shares in a large group. I want to divide these shares into 21 shares, of which your share accounts for the majority, holding 20%, and the remaining 42% is equally divided among other companies and individuals directly or indirectly controlled by me. These people are nominally acting in concert with you and have nothing to do with me. I will let you be the chairman, and you will come forward on my behalf to exercise power and manage Jinbai Oil and Gas Company on my behalf in the future. How about that?”

Bodyguards rushed up to protect the First Prince and separated everyone else.

After all, they were children born to the same father, and Havide still had to show brotherly affection.

Havide only made one request to them: to transfer the shares of Jinbai Oil and Gas Company they held to the investment company under the Starlight Defense Jinbai Branch for a symbolic amount of money.

Bodyguards quickly carried the First Prince to the hospital for rescue.

But she must not get along with him like normal siblings again; it is best not to see him again.

Havide: “I want to carry the coffin for my brother and send him on his last journey.”

Yang Chen: “This is simple. You find someone to spread the news that the First Prince is dead and that other princes have the intention to compete for the throne. Not only your brothers want to compete, but also the sons of other princes. Now is the era of network information; make good use of the dissemination power of the network and spread this news to the whole country and even the world. Without anyone reminding him, your father will establish you as the Crown Prince as soon as possible.”

Early in the morning, news that many princes intended to compete for the position of Crown Prince was trending on the UAE network.

Heavy weapons were actually found in the homes of these princes.

Maya looked at Yang Chen with a serious face, not knowing whether to accept or continue to refuse.

This wave of commotion made the entire UAE panic. Those royal family members who supported Havide came to see the old King one after another, requesting him to decide on the candidate for Crown Prince as soon as possible for the sake of the country’s stability.

Havide couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth and quickly looked at Yang Chen.

If Mordan really died of heart disease, it would prove that the assassination ability of Starlight Defense had reached a terrifying level. They could even decide in advance how the target should die.

Maya: “Okay! Then I’ll try. But if this is the case, won’t I be able to be with you every day? I will miss you.”

Havide: “Heart disease? My brother has always been in good health. He stays up late every day playing until almost dawn, and he’s fine. How could he suddenly have heart disease?”

Havide: “Oh… I told him a long time ago not to go to entertainment venues, but he just wouldn’t listen. Brother, you’re going to meet Allah like this; what are we going to do?”

Those princes and princes who had supported the First Prince and were lucky enough to be okay were now in a panic.

Havide got up and told the bodyguards to leave. He still had to put on an act.

In this way, Yang Chen can achieve the goal of absolute control of Jinbai Oil and Gas Company.

At this time, the incident of Starlight Investment shorting Guofu Bank was in full swing.

At this time, whoever dares to push the responsibility onto Havide—let alone Havide himself will not let him go—even the old King will not spare him lightly.

Havide: “Mr. Yang, this trick of yours is too clever. It not only allowed me to successfully take the throne, but also used my father’s hand to rectify those princes and princes who supported my brother. Haha… don’t worry, I will slowly return those weapons to you.”

The First Prince grabbed his heart with both hands, his body twitched a few times, his eyes widened, and he died a few seconds later.

If you don’t investigate, you won’t know. It’s shocking when you investigate.

But the old King was frightened by the things that were found, and no matter how they explained, it was useless.

Maya’s house, dinner time.

Yang Chen next to him saw that Havide’s expression was very ugly, so he whispered: “It seems that you have to be ruthless in the future; otherwise, you won’t be able to sit firmly in your position.”

Yang Chen: “Then you have to accept my task even more. Maybe you can change the low social status of women in your country? Every right is earned, even the five-day, eight-hour work system was earned by workers with blood. If the country is too strong, I may not be able to handle it. The UAE is not as big as a province in our country, and Havide was also supported by me. I am confident that I can control them. As long as you don’t do anything too excessive, everything is not a problem.”

Havide: “I’m not stupid. Having a friend like Mr. Yang is only good for me, not bad. Why not be friends and have to be enemies with you? Don’t worry, everything I promise will be fulfilled. Within a year, I will definitely make my father abdicate.”

But the doctor proved that Mordan died of a sudden heart attack, and they did not dare to point the finger at Havide.

Subsequently, an announcement was also issued investigating those princes and princes who privately possessed heavy weapons.

Now that the overall situation has been decided, Lansheed’s life and death are no longer important.

Surrounded by Mordan’s people, they felt that his death was inseparable from Havide.

Havide: “Who is Li Shimin?”

Yang Chen also specially told Havide and Maktoum to protect Maya well. If something happened to her, they should not live either.

External people naturally cannot know this kind of confidential information, but people in the banking industry already know it.

Havide would definitely be able to work as a professional mourner in Dragon Kingdom. His vivid and emotional appearance was too realistic. If everyone didn’t know that he and Mordan were fighting for the position of Crown Prince, they would really be deceived by him.

Old Dad was in tears and said: “The doctor said it was a sudden heart attack. Oh…”

Yang Chen: “Maya, will you betray me one day?”

Maya agreed, and Jin Ming could allocate the shares of Jinbai Oil and Gas Company held by Starlight Investment.

The doctor had announced that Mordan’s treatment was ineffective and he died of a sudden heart attack.

If it was just his children fighting, he felt that as long as he didn’t die, he could control everything.

Last time Buffett didn’t play fair and broke his promise, Yang Chen shorted Guofu Bank this time to harvest him, so why bother answering his call and talking nonsense with him?

Take Guofu Bank as an example. Once depositors panic and withdraw money due to the bankruptcy of Entrepreneurship Bank, a run will inevitably occur, and the consequences will be serious.

Then he quickly called Yang Chen.

With her parents gone, Maya had to go and bring her brother Lansheed back. She couldn’t keep him in Dragon Kingdom and let Yang Chen take care of him.

Therefore, Yang Chen specially told Maya to put Lansheed in the hospital after taking him back and hire a few nurses to take care of him out of blood relationship.

If other institutions were shorting Guofu Bank, the problem might not be so serious.

Yang Chen also wanted to give Havide a warning through the death of the First Prince that if he did not obey in the future or did not fulfill his promises, his fate would be the same as that of the First Prince.

Those princes who were framed felt very wronged and quickly came to the old King with Old Dad to explain.

Yang Chen smiled and patted Maya’s butt and said, “Eat quickly.”

Once a civil war breaks out in the royal family, the consequences are unpredictable.

Living to his age and reaching his status, making money is a trivial matter. The key is that his reputation cannot be ruined.

When later generations evaluate him, they say that his investment return rate in his life was as high as 30 times, and he is a well-deserved stock god. Doesn’t that sound good?

But if you add a “but” after this sentence, it won’t sound so perfect.

“But, in his later years, he was harvested by Yang Chen, a rising star from Dragon Kingdom, and he was harvested on the stock of Guofu Bank, which he had held for 30 years.”

Therefore, Buffett is now very anxious. Yang Chen is not answering his calls, so he can only come to Dragon Kingdom to find him in person.
