How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 597

Ren Nana was having cocktails with her friends when Yang Chen called.

Ren Nana quickly answered the phone, excitedly asking, “Hey, Brother Chen, have you figured it out?”

Yang Chen: “Don’t go out for now. I’m coming to find you. Remember, neither you nor your friends can leave the booth. Got it?”

Ren Nana: “Hehe… you want to meet the little sisters again! Okay, no problem, leave it to me. I promise not to let a single one go until you come to pick them out.”

Yang Chen immediately hung up and focused on driving to the bar.

Just as Ren Nana hung up, a waiter came in with a bouquet of flowers.

“Excuse me, which one of you is Ms. Huang Chaoxin?” the waiter asked.

Huang Chaoxin raised her hand and replied, “I am. What’s up?”

The waiter handed her the flowers and said, “A guest outside sent these to you, saying he has admired you for a long time.”

“Wow…” The girls immediately started gossiping and laughing.

Ren Nana: “Chaoxin, you’re quite something. Your admirers have followed you all the way here. Who is it?”

Huang Chaoxin took the flowers and said, “I don’t know who it is either. Handsome, did he say his name?”

Waiter: “No. He just told me to give you the flowers.”

Huang Chaoxin: “Really? Take me to see him.”

The waiter nodded and turned to leave.

Huang Chaoxin, holding the flowers, said, “Sisters, you guys have fun first. I’m going out to see who’s playing these tricks.”

Yuan Jiujiu: “You must bring him in for us to see later. We sisters will give you our opinion.”

Ouyang Xiaona: “Yes, yes! You must bring him in for us to see later.”

Huang Chaoxin: “Got it. I have to ask for his opinion too. I’m going now.”

Huang Chaoxin happily ran towards the door of the booth.

Just then, Ren Nana suddenly remembered Yang Chen’s instructions not to let anyone leave the booth.

“Wait! Chaoxin, wait!” Ren Nana shouted, quickly running over to stop Huang Chaoxin.

Huang Chaoxin asked with a smile, “Nana, what’s wrong?”

Ren Nana: “I don’t know how to explain it to you right now, but you can’t leave this door. Yes, you can’t leave the booth. Listen to me, wait until the friend I want to introduce to you arrives, and let him explain why. Okay?”

Huang Chaoxin asked with a puzzled look, “Why?”

Ren Nana: “I don’t know either. He specifically called to tell me not to let anyone leave the booth, and he’s on his way here. As soon as the call ended, someone sent flowers to lure you out. Don’t you think it’s too coincidental?”

Hearing Ren Nana’s words, the girls became alert.

Huang Chuxia: “Nana, who exactly is your friend? What’s his status?”

Gao Xiaochun: “Yeah, who is he? Why would he say these things to you?”

Zhao Mengmeng: “No matter who he is, I think there must be a reason why he specifically called to remind us not to go out. To be safe, let’s not go out and wait for him to come and explain.”

Ren Nana: “Yes, yes, Mengmeng is right. I thought he was joking with me, but on second thought, it’s unlikely. With his personality and status, he definitely wouldn’t joke with me. Chaoxin, just bear with it for a while, and wait for him to come and explain.”

Huang Chaoxin nodded with a smile, saying, “Okay! I won’t go. But I want to go to the restroom, is that okay?”

Ren Nana nodded, saying, “Go ahead. Come back quickly when you’re done, and don’t run around.”

Huang Chaoxin: “Got it.”

With that, Huang Chaoxin left the booth.

The waiter was still waiting for her outside.

Huang Chaoxin closed the door and whispered, “I’m going to the restroom, wait for me.”

The waiter nodded and waited outside the restroom.

Huang Chaoxin touched up her makeup in the restroom, making sure she looked beautiful before coming out.

“Let’s go!” Huang Chaoxin said to the waiter.

Obviously, she didn’t want to listen to the advice. She wanted to go out and see who sent the flowers. If it was a handsome guy, it would be enough for her to show off in front of her girlfriends.

Don’t underestimate a woman’s determination to show off in front of her best friends.

As for Ren Nana’s reminder, she herself couldn’t explain why they couldn’t go out, so how could Huang Chaoxin listen?

Huang Chaoxin didn’t come back for a long time, and Ren Nana started to get worried.

Ren Nana called Huang Chaoxin, but no one answered.

“Do you think Huang Chaoxin might have sneaked out to see who sent the flowers?” Ren Nana asked.

Yuan Jiujiu: “Possibly, I think she would definitely do something like that.”

Zhao Mengmeng: “She’s not answering the phone?”

Ren Nana: “No. This woman is really speechless. I specifically told her not to go out, but she had to do this.”

Gao Xiaochun: “Nana, who exactly is that friend you’re talking about?”

Ren Nana: “Yang Chen, the boss of Starlight Corporation.”

Huang Chuxia: “Ah! Boss Yang!”

Zhao Mengmeng: “Really? He’s my idol!”

Ren Nana: “Of course, it’s true. Do you think Boss Yang would specifically call me to tell me not to leave the booth? He must have received some news. I’ll try calling again. This woman is really infuriating.”

Ren Nana quickly dialed Huang Chaoxin’s number again, but still no one answered.

But then the booth door opened, and Yang Chen came back, supporting a terrified Huang Chaoxin.

Ren Nana quickly got up and ran over to take Huang Chaoxin, asking, “Brother Chen, what happened?”

Yang Chen: “Didn’t I specifically call you to tell everyone not to leave the booth?”

Ren Nana: “I did. Someone sent a bouquet of flowers to Chaoxin. I told her not to go out, but she used the excuse of going to the restroom and sneaked out, right?”

The girls quickly pulled the still-terrified Huang Chaoxin aside to sit down, all asking her what happened.

Huang Chaoxin pouted, then hugged Ren Nana with a look of grievance.

“Wuwu… I was almost kidnapped just now. It’s all my fault for not listening to your reminder, wuwu…” Huang Chaoxin said, crying.

“Ah! Kidnapped!” Everyone exclaimed.

Then everyone focused their attention on Yang Chen; obviously, he had received news in advance that someone was going to kidnap Huang Chaoxin.

Ren Nana: “Brother Chen, what exactly is going on? Oh, let me introduce you. This is the famous Boss Yang of Starlight Corporation. Brother Chen, let me introduce you. Huang…”

Has always wanted to meet you, but just didn’t have the opportunity. How about this? After the New Year, I will go to Beijing and donate the horse head and pig head in my hand to the country. To thank President Yang for saving my daughter’s life, I will give the horse head to President Yang. Whether President Yang donates it to the country or keeps it for himself is entirely up to you. I hope President Yang doesn’t dislike the small gift.”

Yang Chen: “The pig head and horse head among the twelve zodiac animal heads in the Old Summer Palace?”

Huang Hongsen: “Yes!”

Yang Chen: “Then it must be donated to the country. It’s meaningless for me to keep it personally.”

Huang Hongsen: “In that case, let’s donate it to the country in both our names. What does President Yang think?”

Yang Chen: “No, no, Mr. He worked so hard to get back the national treasure; of course, it should be donated in your own name. I won’t take the credit.”

Huang Hongsen: “President Yang is not short of money, and his career is more successful than mine. I really can’t think of any other way to thank you for saving my daughter’s life. I hope President Yang doesn’t mind giving me a chance to express my gratitude.”

Not to mention a big shot like Huang Hongsen, even an ordinary person would definitely try to find a way to express their gratitude if someone saved their child; otherwise, they would feel guilty.

If Huang Hongsen didn’t show any gratitude, people would laugh at him for not knowing how to be grateful.

But Yang Chen is not short of money, and Huang Hongsen, who runs casinos and other entertainment venues, can’t help him much in his career. He can only take the opportunity of donating the animal heads to thank Yang Chen.

Yang Chen also thought of Huang Hongsen’s idea, so he didn’t refuse.

“Okay, then I’ll shamelessly take advantage of Mr. Huang’s generosity,” Yang Chen said with a smile.

Huang Hongsen: “Haha… President Yang, don’t say that. I have to thank you for giving me this opportunity to thank you. Then it’s settled. I will go to Beijing on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to attend the donation ceremony. I hope to see President Yang then. I must say thank you in person.”

Yang Chen: “Okay, then we’ll see you on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. Mr. Huang, please tell Miss Huang, I’ll give her the phone.”

Huang Hongsen: “Okay! Thank you, President Yang. I look forward to meeting you on the Lantern Festival.”

Yang Chen returned the phone to Huang Chaoxin, and then Qiu Tian pushed the door and came in.

Qiu Tian ran to Yang Chen’s side and whispered in his ear, “Brother Chen, it’s done. The people have been taken to the secret room for interrogation. What should we do with them after the interrogation?”

Yang Chen: “Hand them over to Mr. Huang. I think he must really want these people. Contact the Macau branch and have them contact Mr. Huang Hongsen in my name to discuss how to hand over these people.”

Qiu Tian: “Yes! Then I’ll go back. Do you need me to leave a few more brothers to protect you?”

Yang Chen: “Leave them behind and escort them back later. Be careful on your way back.”

Qiu Tian: “Okay. I’m leaving.”

Qiu Tian turned and left, and Huang Chaoxin also finished the call.

Yang Chen got up and said, “Okay, we can go now. I’ll send someone to take you back. After that, your safety depends on yourselves. Their target is Miss Huang, so the rest of you are unlikely to be in danger. But it’s always good to be careful; after all, you are all rich daughters. In case they have any accomplices who haven’t shown up, they might have some temporary ideas.”

Huang Chaoxin: “Thank you, Brother Chen. Can I go to your house? I’ll fly back to Macau tomorrow.”

Yang Chen: “How about this? I’ll send someone to guard your hotel room door overnight and escort you to the plane or car tomorrow. Okay?”

Huang Chaoxin just wanted to go to Yang Chen’s house. She’s just a nymphomaniac. Seeing that Yang Chen is handsome, she already has ideas in her mind.

But Yang Chen has already made such proper arrangements, so she’s too embarrassed to continue insisting on going home with him.

The rich and beautiful women nodded, following Yang Chen’s arrangements.

Yang Chen took them out of the bar, arranging at least 4 bodyguards for each person.

As for Huang Chaoxin, a high-risk person, Yang Chen assigned her 8 bodyguards.

After making the arrangements, Yang Chen went home to sleep.

After a night of hard interrogation, the group finally confessed.

Qiu Tian sent all the information he had interrogated to Yang Chen.

The leader of this group is called Li Shaojian, nicknamed Jianren Jian [meaning ‘cheap person Jian’], the boss of the Macau Big Circle Gang. He is a very ruthless person. No matter who is weaker or stronger than him, he dares to mess with them.

The entertainment industry in Macau is developed, and there are many casinos.

Li Shaojian and his gang mainly make a living by soliciting customers and lending money at high interest rates, and occasionally do things like kidnapping and extortion.

The reason for choosing Huang Chaoxin as the kidnapping target is twofold.

First, Huang Chaoxin’s father is rich, and it’s not difficult to ask for one or two billion.

Second, Huang Chaoxin likes to go out and play with friends alone, so the success rate is relatively high.

This time, they planned to kidnap Huang Chaoxin and demand 1 billion US dollars from Huang Hongsen.

As long as this deal is done, they can fly abroad and enjoy life.

A bunch of gangsters, not a threat.

Yang Chen sent a message back to Qiu Tian.

“Do as I told you last night, let the person in charge of the Macau branch contact Huang Hongsen in my name, see what Huang Hongsen plans to do, and follow his instructions.”

As soon as the message was sent, Yu Shishi ran over excitedly.

“Sir, look at the news! Longxin International’s chip factory has been built and is ready to be officially put into use on the first day of the Lunar New Year!”

Yang Chen quickly took the tablet to take a look. The news released by Longyang TV stated that the chip factory just built by Longxin International has been completed. It was originally planned to be officially put into use in March of next year, but for some reason, it was brought forward to the first day of the Lunar New Year.

The factory will directly launch 3nm chips, and the 1nm chip project is expected to be launched around the Spring Festival next year. All work is currently underway in an orderly manner.

The current production plan is to supply 70% of the production capacity to the domestic market and 30% to the foreign market until the domestic market is relatively saturated, and then the supply to the foreign market will be increased.

In the news comment section, netizens are discussing enthusiastically.

“Congratulations, congratulations! The motherland is strong, the people are happy! We finally don’t have to be strangled [economically]! I have been waiting since Starlight Technology handed over the quantum chip, and now our chip factory can finally be put into use.”

“Haha… this ‘certain reason’ is highlighted; it is clearly to cooperate with Boss Yang to short Qualcomm, Nvidia, and Intel. Let’s just say that the domestic chip market of 2.4 trillion yuan per year is completely contracted by Longxin International, and the foreign market will be gradually eroded. It is unreasonable for the stock prices of traditional chip manufacturers such as Qualcomm not to plummet.”

“Boss Yang still has a big face [influence], and he forcibly brought the opening date forward by more than a month for him. However, this is also the treatment he deserves. Without him, there would be no quantum chip, and any preferential treatment for him is worth it.”

“Boss Yang is still amazing! He seized the opportunity to short the other four large technology companies, and all of them were successfully shorted, which is much stronger than the Wall Street guys who make a lot of noise but do little. The Wall Street shorting alliance is still using cash to hold on to the short orders of Credit Suisse Coffee, which is really ignorant of life and death.”

“Haha… there is no need to read the following; the stock prices of Qualcomm and those companies will definitely plummet, there is no doubt about it. Will everyone have any objections to Boss Yang going into the textbook in the future?”

…

Today is the last day of work for Starlight Investment, and we will leave early in the afternoon to attend the year-end summary meeting.

It’s time to deal with Goldman Sachs; we must let them know how stupid it is to short the Dragon Country [China] gold market.
