"There's a project. If you have spare cash, you can use a few hundred million dollars and put it in your account for a month or two."
"Your and your friends' cash flow should be close to five billion, right? Isn't it enough? "
"It's not enough," Chen Zhao said. "It's just that the plate is too big. No amount of money is enough."
Chen Zhao wasn't going to build a normal coastal island.
He was going to build a super resort like Hawaii.
The amount of money he needed in the early stage was gone.
This didn't even include the subsequent investment.
So, this project wasn't something normal people could afford.
"What project?"
"I can't tell you yet," Chen Zhao said.
Lila Gavich thought about it. The project Chen Zhao was talking about didn't even have a shadow yet.
To him, even if the project disappeared, he would only lose one or two months of interest. It wasn't a big deal.
"Okay, I'll prepare it later. What's the maximum investment?"
"Prepare as much as you have. It depends on your appetite. The more you invest, the more shares you'll get."
"How big is this project?"
"I don't think there'll be such a big project in the world in the next ten years," Chen Zhao said.
"Mr. Chen, how much money do I need to be qualified?" Merlin asked while driving.
"Sorry, I can't qualify no matter how much money you have," Chen Zhao said, smiling.
When Chen Zhao was distributing the cake, he also looked at the people.
Acquaintances depended on whether they had enough capital, connections, and influence.
For example, a celebrity like Steven was welcomed by 99% of the investment projects in the world.
As for those he wasn't familiar with, Chen Zhao wouldn't let them in no matter how much money they had.
He didn't even have enough for his own family. Why should he give it to outsiders?
Merlin smiled and shook her head. She obviously knew what Chen Zhao meant.
However, she was only asking a probing question.
She didn't think that Chen Zhao would let a stranger in.
Soon, they arrived at the New Press Research Institute.
Chen Zhao looked at the building before him. It was around seven or eight stories tall. There was a large empty space around it for greenery.
"This building costs two or three million, right?"
"This building can barely make up for it," Lila Gavich said disapprovingly.
"Let's go in and take a look inside."
"Boss, Mr. Chen, this building was originally used for some experimental research. We found some chemical materials in there earlier. I haven't sent people in to disinfect and clean it up. If we go in now, there's a certain risk."
"Haha … I'm a chemical producer. Why would I be afraid of those chemicals?" Lila Gaivic said with a smile.
"Those chemicals don't know the boss."
"It's okay. I brought a doctor with me. He knows better than I do what's dangerous."
"Doctor?" Merlin was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted. "Mr. Chen is a doctor?"
"I'm a doctor," Chen Zhao answered.
Merlin did not expect Chen Zhao to be a doctor.
Of course, Chen Zhao was an illegal doctor too.
Even though Chen Zhao was a professor, he didn't have the qualifications to practice medicine.
"If I can't get the money back, although this building can barely cover the interest, I'll still need to invest a lot of money to repair and use the building. In the end, I won't be able to earn anything."
Lila Gaivic was a very smart businessman. He was different from normal businessmen.
Normal businessmen thought that if they bought something for five dollars and sold it for ten, they would earn five dollars.
But Lila Gaivic considered more complicated things, such as the time cost, investment profits, interest, currency depreciation, and so on.
Even a lawyer like Merlin felt emotional. Just a moment ago, the two had been discussing investments of hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars.
Now, they had to carefully calculate the investment of one or two million dollars.
But this was the basic quality of a successful businessman.
A businessman who could not be calculative was not a qualified businessman.
Chen Zhao, Lila Gaivic, and Merlin walked around the building. They did not find anything valuable.
"It's a little strange," Merlin suddenly said.
"What's strange?"
"The amount of materials in the building is wrong."
"What's wrong? Didn't the original person in charge move them away? What's strange about that? "
Neither Chen Zhao nor Lila Gaivic understood what Merlin meant.
"First of all, they moved in a hurry. Also, they moved secretly, so there can't be too big of a commotion," Merlin said. Merlin said, "Based on the amount of chemical raw materials our company sold to them, the cost of taking these raw materials away is very high. We just walked around the building, and there are a few individual laboratories that still have a lot of raw materials that have not been opened. There are also a lot of raw materials that have not been opened in the warehouse. Many of these raw materials are not cheap, but the remaining raw materials do not match the total amount. Think about it, if it were you, under what circumstances would you choose to transport some raw materials away, and under what circumstances would you choose to transport some raw materials away?"
"This …"
Chen Zhao and Lila Gaivic glanced at each other.
"What does this mean?"
"It means that there's a second warehouse here. The New Society Research Institute's building is very clear, so the second warehouse might not be above ground," Merlin said. Merlin said, "Although I don't know why they want to take the chemical materials, from all the suspicious points, they do have a second warehouse."
Chen Zhao and Lila Gaivic had to admit that Merlin's thinking was very sharp.
At least, they hadn't thought about this possibility.
"Oh, the button in the elevator seemed to indicate an underground parking lot," Chen Zhao said. "But there's already an open-air parking lot here. I don't think they'd make another one, right?"
"Let's go take a look. We'll know soon."
The three entered the elevator again and pressed the button for floor 1.
When the elevator door opened, Chen Zhao, Lila Gaivic, and Merlin were all shocked.
It wasn't a hidden warehouse below. Instead, it was an underground laboratory that was even larger than the buildings above ground.
"I didn't expect such a large underground space to be hidden here."
"Boss, since this is a hidden laboratory, it means that some secret experiments have been done here. We might be in danger if we go in while wearing isolation suits."
"It's fine. For Chen, nothing can trouble him," Lila Gaivic said confidently. Lila Gaivic said confidently, "If you're scared, you can wait for us up there."
