"It's out," the secretary said. "The land is ready, and the cost is almost zero. If we use the best specifications, we will need about five million. If the best equipment was used, it would cost about 10 million yuan. Coupled with other miscellaneous expenses, the accounting department calculated that it would at most cost 20 million yuan. This kind of investment was equivalent to the standard of a top high school in the city. But the problem now is that we don't know the age range of the school. If it's from middle school to university, the budget will probably be higher. "
"It's fine." Hong Weiguo didn't hesitate. "Let's use the budget of thirty million for now, from primary school to university. Wait! " Hong Weiguo's eyes suddenly lit up. "This little rascal, he's unknowingly paving the way for me!"
"Ah?" The secretary was shocked.
Hong Weiguo laughed. "In the future, if our company needs any talents, we can directly open up a major in this school! Network programming, animation design, website construction, database maintenance, and so on. It won't be effective in the short term, but in the long term, those who graduate from this school will definitely become the backbone of Sangle! "
The secretary immediately knelt down. "I will never compete with Young Master Hong Dali again …"
…
Inside Tianjing City.
A boss-like figure looked at his butler. "The superprodigal from the Hong Family is going to have his coming of age ceremony?"
"Yes, Master. The invitation has been delivered." The butler respectfully handed over the invitation in his hand.
"En, let me take a look. May 28th night, Changjiang Gold cruise ship? Changjiang Gold cruise ship? Isn't this cruise ship too small? Forget it, we have to go to the coastal area of Beijin anyway. Let's just take it as a two-day vacation. The location is … "The boss looked at it and was confused. Then, his eyes widened." The location is at Fengyuan Lake?! The Fengyuan Lake at Tianjing City's West Fourth Loop?! "
…
"Have you heard? The Hong Family is really generous this time. For the superprodigal's coming of age ceremony, they actually transported a huge cruise ship to Fengyuan Lake! That's a huge ship that weighs tens of thousands of tons. I really don't know how he managed to do it! "
"How could I not know about such big news? I heard that the transportation alone cost 10 million, and this is because Fengyuan Lake is connected to our Tianjing City's Grand Canal. If not, it would probably be even more expensive."
"This Hong Dali squanders, and Hong Weiguo squanders along with him. Sigh, I can't compete with him, I can't compete with him!"
"Comparisons are odious. Don't even think about it. But what I'm thinking is that Hong Weiguo is spending so much this time to send a signal to everyone. If anyone dares to touch Hong Dali, Hong Weiguo will definitely fight him to the death! "
"Isn't that obvious? Just the location of the coming of age ceremony alone cost 10 million. Even a fool can see how much Hong Weiguo dotes on Hong Dali. Sigh, it's really better to be born well than to do well."
"Let's not be envious, jealous, and hateful. We're not on the same level."
…
Around Fengyuan Lake.
"Mommy, look, why is there such a big ship over there?"
"Don't be silly. How big is Fengyuan Lake? There's such a big ship … There's really a big ship!!"
"MaMa, is this an alien invasion? How did such a big ship get here? "
"I don't know either. Maybe someone transported it in. Sigh, we don't understand the world of the rich …"
"MaMa, can we go up and take a look?"
"Of course not. Didn't you see that there are so many people surrounding the lake shore? They don't dare to go up."
"Oh … OK then …"
…
At the intersection of Tianjing City's West Fourth Loop and North Second Loop, inside Lin Chuyin's laboratory.
"Oh, is it Hong Dali's coming of age ceremony?" Lin Chuyin's voice was as calm as usual. She said to a floating phone in the laboratory, "OK, I understand. I'll go when the time comes."
Lin Chuyin promised to attend Hong Dali's coming of age ceremony. On the other end of the phone, her father was instantly shocked. "Chuyin, you're really going? You don't usually participate in these messy activities, right? "
"Hong Dali is my friend, so I have to go," Lin Chuyin replied calmly. Then, she hung up the phone and continued with her research.
…
Tianjing City, southwest corner of the Hong Lake Villa District, Villa Number 16.
"Damn it, I don't know what kind of luck that prodigal Hong Dali has. He actually organized such a huge coming of age ceremony. Now, the entire Tianjing City knows that my Fifth Uncle spent more than 10 million to transport a cruise ship to Fengyuan Lake for Hong Dali's coming of age ceremony. I don't know how it was transported, but I heard that 90 heavy trucks and 20 helicopters were mobilized." Hong Anbao angrily leaned on the sofa and kept scolding. "What a prodigal. He has too much money and nowhere to spend it!"
"Why are you thinking so much?" Hong Anbao's father, Hong Jianye, held a glass of red wine and crossed his legs. He insipidly said, "What I'm more concerned about is that Weiguo is doing this for us to see. Hehe, such a huge coming of age ceremony. This way, whoever wants to touch Hong Dali has to really think twice. Seeing that the family meeting is just around the corner, he's giving us a warning."
Hong Anbao disdainfully said, "Isn't it just so that Hong Dali won't be at a disadvantage during the family meeting? With such a show, even if Hong Dali is really useless, I reckon no one will dare to do anything to him during the family meeting. Moreover, from the current situation, I don't know if Hong Dali is really lucky or really powerful. At least those things that he started up still made quite a lot of money. This is really difficult. "
"Hehe, we'll deal with it when it comes." Hong Jianye laughed and said, "Even if he can pass, it's just that he'll be more of a prodigal in the future. The sales of your Fierce Bull beverage have recovered quite a bit these two days. Although it still can't reach the expected level, it's still quite possible for it to enter the top three of the younger generation. Moreover, I heard that the old fellows at this year's family meeting are showing signs of wanting to increase the number of spots to five. I heard that there are two other people in the younger generation who are also quite capable. No matter what, it's enough to stay in the top five and fight for the top three."
"Yup, I know." Hong Anbao nodded. "As long as I get the family's funds and expand my business, my company's sales will definitely increase further! But Dad, shouldn't we think of a way to deal with Hong Dali? It's not a good thing to let him develop like this. This fellow's ideas are too good, we shouldn't nurture a tiger that will bring us trouble. "
"Haha, don't worry, I've already thought of it. I've already made arrangements." Hong Jianye lightly sipped his wine. "We don't dare to do anything to Hong Dali, but do you think the people around him won't dare to?"
…
The next few days were calm and peaceful. Very soon, it was Hong Dali's birthday, May 28th.
"Brouhahaha! School is finally over! " Once the bell rang, Hong Dali stretched lazily and stood up with Quentin in his arms. "I'm so bored, I'm going out to play!"
"Brother Dali, it's your coming of age ceremony tonight. We're all going, hehe." Ling Yi shouted from behind.
"Ah, we're all going. Haha, see you tonight!" Hong Dali carried Quentin and ran out.
The students in the class behind all enviously said, "Sigh, he actually transported such a huge cruise ship over for his coming of age ceremony. There's really no way to compare!" "That's right, that's right. I celebrated my 18th birthday two days ago and only managed to book a whole floor of a restaurant. Brother Dali directly transported a cruise ship, the difference is too big, sigh." "Stop sighing, comparisons are odious. Let's hurry home and pack up first!"
Hence, the group of students packed up and went home, preparing to attend Hong Dali's coming of age ceremony that night. Speaking of which, those who were invited were not ordinary people. They were all well-known people in Tianjing City. They didn't even have the chance to take a look even if they wanted to.
Just as Hong Dali walked out of the classroom, Tang Muxin was already waiting there with a smile on her face. When she saw Hong Dali, she immediately went up to him and smiled. "Dali, it's your coming of age ceremony tonight. Do you have anything to say?"
"Of course!" Hong Dali raised both his hands up high and laughed as he loudly said, "I've finally leveled up from a little prodigal to a big prodigal, oh yeah!"
Tang Muxin's face was full of tears. "I shouldn't have asked this question. Look at the looks of the people around …"
The two of them walked out of the school gate and boarded Soaring Angel, who was waiting at the gate. Hong Dali habitually asked, "Xiaoyi, is there any good news these two days?"
Usually, after he asked this question, Ling Xiaoyi would have already started reporting the progress of various matters. Unexpectedly, there was no news today!
Just as Hong Dali was feeling strange, the driver, Wang Mingyu, turned around and said, "Young Master Dali, it seems that something happened to Miss Xiaoyi's family. She left in a hurry. I originally wanted to ask her about it, but after thinking about it, it's not urgent. Let's wait for Young Master's decision."
"Something happened to Xiaoyi's family?" Hong Dali frowned and thought. "What's so urgent?"
Tang Muxin said, "Sister Xiaoyi is usually very steady. Something must be serious for her to leave in such a hurry. Dali, quickly ask her!"
Speaking of which, with Ling Xiaoyi managing things, Hong Dali really didn't have to worry a lot. Now that something happened to Ling Xiaoyi's family, as the Young Master, he naturally had to show some concern. Hence, Hong Dali decisively took out his phone, found Ling Xiaoyi's phone number, and directly dialed it. "Xiaoyi, what's the situation? I heard that something happened to your family? "
Different from her usual gentle and calm tone, this time, Ling Xiaoyi's voice obviously had a crying tone. "Young Master, help my younger brother, help my younger brother!" It was obvious that she had encountered something extremely troublesome. Otherwise, with how much she was doted on by Hong Dali now, she naturally wouldn't be so anxious.
Tang Muxin put her ear close to the phone. Hearing Ling Xiaoyi's crying, she instantly panicked. "Sister Xiaoyi must have encountered some big trouble!"
"Don't cry, don't cry." Hong Dali hurriedly comforted her. "Isn't I, the Young Master, here? What exactly happened?" He originally wanted to ask in detail, but after thinking for a while, he decisively changed his words. "Where are you? I better go and look for you. "
"I … I'm …" Ling Xiaoyi thought for a while and finally gritted her teeth. "Young Master, I can't say!"
