The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1256: Chapter 480: Echoes (Part 2)

”Authorization letter?”

Jiang Qingkui was a bit confused upon hearing this.

”It’s a general agreement as the owner because Miss Lin said only you can represent Mr. Zhou, so...”

”Owner?”

Jiang Qingkui was momentarily stunned.

”Oh, Miss Jiang doesn’t know? The 55th and 56th floors of the second phase of the International Gold Center are now properties under Mr. Zhou’s name, so that’s why I asked you to take care, after all, I’m now standing on your territory, haha...”

Listening to Tang Xiashan’s joke, Jiang Qingkui was shocked inwardly.

Zhou Wang... directly bought these two floors?

Not only the 56th floor where they were but also the 55th floor below...

While Jiang Qingkui’s breathing was quickening, Qian Zihao and the others beside her were even more stunned.

From the moment they entered this hall, the shock was like ocean waves, one higher than the other... now it was like a massive tsunami, directly destroying their last bit of dignity.

It wasn’t a lease, but a direct purchase!

”This... how much would that cost?”

Without any concept in his mind, Liu Heng instinctively looked at Qian Zihao and asked softly.

As a prime asset in the core area of Lujiazui, most of the floors of the International Gold Center are only available for lease and not for sale, or rather, ordinary people have no way to access the purchase channels, so there’s no standard saying about how much per square meter it actually is.

And Qian Zihao, who comes from a privileged background, managed to become an owner through internal channels, so only he might have the answer to this question.

Qian Zihao unconsciously analyzed: ”The floor I bought was sold at a unit price of 110,000 per square meter, but here is the top floor, so it must be at least 130,000 per square meter. Calculating with a standard floor area of 2500 square meters each layer, 5000 square meters multiplied by 130,000 that is...”

”650 million!”

Du Mengqi quickly did the math and came up with the number instantly.

Upon hearing this number, everyone fell silent.

Even for Qian Zihao, the most influential among them, this was an astronomical figure... when he bought it himself, he jointly purchased half a floor with two other people, and the area he subscribed to was only 200 square meters.

Now, he hasn’t even repaid a ten million bank loan...

”Registered capital of one million... one million...”

Qian Zihao remembered the business registration information he had just searched and was at a loss for words, wondering if even the registration information had to be a ’disguise’.

On the other hand, Jiang Qingkui, having quickly digested the information, calmed down quickly.

After all, it wasn’t the first time she had witnessed Zhou Wang’s incredible wealth; an 800 million private jet was bought just like that, without even blinking, and what’s more, paid in full, not to mention some office buildings.

Even though this was the International Gold Center in Magic City, the pinnacle of office buildings.

The only thing Jiang Qingkui felt was that Zhou Wang’s action might be slightly excessive.

After all, buying such two floors for the Wang Foundation’s office seems a bit wasteful.

Since the daily operation of the Foundation doesn’t require such a large space, the area of such an office space could accommodate the administrative offices of four or five large enterprises simultaneously...

As the confusion in Jiang Qingkui’s eyes flickered away, Lin Ran beside her also had a complicated look in her eyes.

To maintain secrecy, she had been busy handling other matters, so only Lin Ran knew...

What Jiang Qingkui would receive tonight.

It was Zhou Wang’s surprise for her.

Jealous? Envious?

Absolutely...

Lin Ran even wished she could take her place; she couldn’t imagine how excited she would be if it were her standing there.

Soon, Lin Ran sighed lightly, and the jealousy in her eyes disappeared.

Since she got acquainted with Jiang Qingkui in Beidou, they haven’t been on good terms, but when Zhou Wang showed such an attitude, Lin Ran knew she couldn’t continue treating Jiang Qingkui with such indifference.

She might never catch up to Jiang Qingkui’s special status in Zhou Wang’s heart, but at least she couldn’t let such events create a bad impression on Zhou Wang towards her...

Having realized this, Lin Ran walked forward with a smile, affectionately linking arms with Jiang Qingkui.

”Sister Qingkui, although the arrangement for the banquet is just about done, there are a few details I’m not certain about. Why don’t you help me take a look and give me some advice?”

Jiang Qingkui was taken aback by Lin Ran’s sudden intimate gesture, and looking back, she met Lin Ran’s sincere eyes.

Lin Ran was already past thirty, several years senior to Jiang Qingkui, and this address of ”Sister Qingkui” was, in effect, an acknowledgment of Jiang Qingkui’s status.

Although Jiang Qingkui didn’t know why Lin Ran suddenly changed her attitude, given Lin Ran’s humble approach, Jiang Qingkui wasn’t petty and immediately smiled reflectively.

”Alright, Sister Ran, why don’t you take me to see...”

...

Light as a feather yet warm as a hug, emitting a natural sheen with every inch.

It wasn’t a woman’s skin but the texture of a Brioni Bespoke top-notch custom-made suit.

Filled with Vicuna wool from the Andes Mountains beneath the dark blue fabric, the fabric’s subtle houndstooth from the Royal Family is handwoven on ancient looms, exuding a discreetly authoritative feel under changing light.

Zhou Wang stretched out his hand, and Yun Rou, standing behind, gently stepped forward to smooth out every tiny crease on his suit.

The full canvas construction naturally adhered to the fabric, rising and falling with each breath, as if it could remain crisp like new even after ten years.

Wearing it, Zhou Wang was no longer just donning a suit but rather draping himself in a flowing sculpture woven over 200 hours by Italian tailors—

”Power and elegance, united as one.”

With Zhou Wang’s physical appearance, paired with this million-dollar bespoke suit, he truly embodied ”seamlessness” and ”harmonious beauty,” exuding the handsome and noble bearing of royal nobility, which made Yun Rou’s breath hasten, her knees nearly giving way.

Zhou Wang was rather immune to his beauty; he glanced down at Sister Xiao Yu, who was still squatting on the ground, cautiously cleaning the surface dust from his shoes, and said softly:

”Sister Xiao Yu, that’s enough.”

After Zhao Yu retreated to the side at his word, Zhou Wang checked his reflection in the mirror one last time, then donned the Patek Philippe Sky Moon watch, and placed a formal pocket square in his breast pocket before exiting the master bedroom.

In the living room, Butler Han Rui, along with Bodyguard Xiao Wang and others, were already on standby, surrounding Zhou Wang as they walked out after him descending the stairs.

Upon reaching the parking lot, a flagship model Phantom uniquely distinct from regular Rolls-Royce awaited silently.

The black body, but the color was darker than normal black; it was a nearly midnight black.

(Black Knight Phantom—photos of this custom model are hard to find, make do with these)

This was the custom model Phantom of the Rolls-Royce ”Black Badge” series that Zhou Wang purposely waited two weeks for.

In truth, Rolls-Royce offers even more advanced customization with their true Bespoke design, which allows for complete freedom of design beginning from zero, requiring clients to co-create with the Rolls-Royce design team, typically taking years...

Zhou Wang couldn’t wait that long, so ultimately he opted for the Collection advanced series customization, essentially ”minor tweaks” under limited themes.

For example, this ”Black Knight Phantom” had some detail modifications in the body paint, alloy wheels, and interior fittings, adopting an all-black design and carbon fiber wheels, with power upgrades, distinguishing it from regular Phantoms.

The dark metal paint was embedded with tiny diamond particles, revealing its prestige under certain lighting, which alone made the paint four million more compared to ordinary Phantom, and with embroidered starry ceilings and other modifications, the final landing price of this Phantom reached an astounding 29 million...

Over twice the price of a standard top-spec Phantom.

In reality, once luxury cars reach a certain level, the differences in comfort are not significant, and Zhou Wang wouldn’t specifically pursue pricier models unless necessary.

However, this top-of-the-line Phantom was essential; its existence was to cater to such important occasions as today.

”Let’s go.”

With Zhou Wang’s faint command upon getting into the back seat, Gao Xing nodded silently and then started the vehicle.
