Just as Xiao Yunhai was chatting with the crowd, Wu Yifa and a thirty something year old, astute and capable woman walked together, chatting and laughing.
Wu Yifa looked around and pointed at Xiao Yunhai, who was surrounded in the middle, and said to the woman next to him, "Sister Menglan, look, the richest man in the world seems to be very popular."
Cao Menglan smiled and said, "If you were the richest man in the world, you would also be treated like this."
Wu Yifa shrugged and said, "With this guy around, I don't want to be rich in this lifetime. I can only look forward to the next lifetime."
Cao Menglan was stunned. She knew how proud Wu Yifa was since they were both from Beijing.
Although he had always been respectful to her, she knew that Wu Yifa only respected her because of their friendship and not because he admired her.
When he talked about Xiao Yunhai, Wu Yifa acted very casually, but Cao Menglan could still hear the admiration in his voice.
She had never seen this from Wu Yifa before. She couldn't help but become more interested in Xiao Yunhai, the prince of the Xiao family who had been wandering the world for more than twenty years.
"Everyone, I'm sorry, but I have something to discuss with Mr. Xiao. Everyone, please give me ten minutes." Wu Yifa squeezed to Xiao Yunhai's side, cupped his hands and said to the rich people around him.
Seeing that it was the prince of the Wu family and the young lady of the Cao family behind him, everyone gave him face and laughed and walked away.
Wu Yifa smiled and said, "Old Xiao, I didn't know that your social skills were so good."
Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes and said, "Nonsense, I can even make friends with someone like you. Who else can I not handle?"
"Pfft." Cao Menglan couldn't help but laugh when she heard Xiao Yunhai's words. ‘
Wu Yifa was stunned for a moment before he understood what he meant. He pointed at Xiao Yunhai and said angrily, "Damn, your mouth is so mean. However, I am a magnanimous person and will forgive you today. Come, let me introduce you. This is the famous big sister in Beijing, Miss Cao Menglan. Apart from you, there's no one in the capital who doesn't know her. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled slightly, and took the initiative to extend his hand, saying: "Hello, Sister Lan. I've long heard of your great name, but I've never had the chance to meet you. Today, I finally meet you. "
Cao Menglan shook hands with Xiao Yunhai and said, "Mr. Xiao, you're too kind. I'm a fan of yours. Whether it's your music or your movies, I've seen them all. I'm also very clear about your career. To be able to build such a huge business empire in five years, Mr Xiao was really admirable. Please take care of Menglan Group in the future. "
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said, "You flatter me, Sister Lan. I don't know much about business matters. The reason why I have these achievements is all because of my brothers and sisters. Otherwise, I'm nothing.
Cao Menglan smiled and said, "So you made them all billionaires. “
Xiao Yunhai said, "If I didn't do that, they wouldn't have worked so hard for me. Sister Lan, I heard that you invested in Steyr Networks' music, video, and business website in Hua Xia. Is that true? "
Cao Menglan was stunned. She didn't expect him to be so direct. She nodded and said, "That's right. My brothers and sisters and I reached an agreement with David Steyr's son, Jason. He's a classmate of one of our business partners. I almost forgot that you own 25% of Steyr Networks' shares. In that case, we're colleagues. "
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Sister Lan, to be honest, I've been thinking of ways to get rid of David Steyr. However, Steyr Networks is where he worked for decades. It's really difficult to achieve my goal. Now that he's suddenly working with you, Sister Lan, to be honest, it's giving me a headache. Because the better Steyr Networks develops, the further I'll be away from him. "
Xiao Yunhai's words were too direct and undisguised.
Cao Menglan had always been seen as a woman who didn't lose out to men. She was known for her straightforward way of speaking and doing things.
However, she realized today that compared to Xiao Yunhai, she was really far behind.
He even said that he wanted to get rid of Steyr Networks and become the CEO of Steyr Networks. This was too surprising. At the very least, he had to cover up his embarrassment.
Cao Menglan didn't know what to say for a moment.
Wu Yifa smiled and said, "Yunhai, let's talk about the three major internet companies in the future. Kid, tell me secretly how much you're going to invest in the development of the western region. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "This isn't a secret. What's there to hide? A few days ago, my uncle called me personally despite his busy schedule and asked me to invest in the western region. This is the first time he's asked, so I have to give him face no matter what. So I agreed to be in charge of the construction of the three railways. It's about 200 billion. "
"Pfft."
Wu Yifa was dumbfounded when he heard this. Cao Menglan, who was next to him, was also shocked by the generosity of the world's richest man.
It was fine if he didn't make a move, but he made a move of 200 billion. He didn't treat money as money at all.
After a while, Wu Yifa came back to his senses. He gave Xiao Yunhai a thumbs up and said, "Old Xiao, I admire you. You're really giving your uncle too much face. My dad also told me to do my part for the development of Hua Xia. But I've only managed to scrape together five billion. Compared to your two hundred billion, it's simply worlds apart. "
Cao Menglan also smiled bitterly and said, "I just spent tens of billions to buy 20% shares of Hua Xia's Steyr Video Network, Music Network, and Business Network. Now, I can only invest 8 billion at most. And I believe that there aren't many rich people who can take out more than 10 billion Hua Xia dollars. After all, the Western region is too poor. It will take at least eight to ten years to recover the cost. For a company, this cycle is too long. Mr. Xiao, aren't you afraid that you'll lose all your money building the railways? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "If you're poor, you should take care of yourself. If you're rich, you should help the world. The money I, Xiao Yunhai, earn now can't be spent in several lifetimes. Since I have the ability to contribute to the development of this country and its people, I naturally can't ask for more. To be honest, I didn't expect the three railways to bring me much money. I'm just doing my duty as a Hua Xia businessman. "
"Good, well said. Yunhai, you really didn't disappoint me. "
A familiar voice suddenly came from behind Xiao Yunhai.
Xiao Yunhai turned his head and saw the No. 1 Minister and the No. 2 Minister coming in one after another.
The No. 1 Minister looked at Xiao Yunhai with eyes full of praise. Uncle Xiao Chongyang's eyes were full of gratification, as if to say that it was a blessing for the Xiao family to have such a descendant.
Everyone greeted the two Ministers in unison.
The No. 1 Minister nodded to everyone, came to Xiao Yunhai, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Yunhai, I just heard what you said. It was very good. How many people can do your duty as a Hua Xia businessman? Keep up the good work. I can't see how far you can go in the future. I just hope that no matter what achievements you have in the future, you will never forget what you just said. " “
The No. 1 Minister's praise for Xiao Yunhai directly shocked the whole Purple Light Pavilion.
Xiao Yunhai was the first person since the founding of the country who could make a leader say such words in such a situation.
"Don't say that, Minister. The higher you lift me up, the harder I'm afraid I'll fall. "Xiao Yunhai laughed.
"What? You've learned to be humble? When we first met, you vowed to me that you would become the richest man in the world within five years. In less than two years, you achieved this goal. Now your assets are ten times more than that, but why are you so much less ambitious? This is not a good sign. "The No. 1 Minister said with a playful look.
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Minister, I was young and arrogant. Now I've grown up and learned to be humble. This should be an improvement. "
The No. 1 Minister laughed, patted him on the shoulder again, and then walked to the rostrum with the No. 2 Minister.
