The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1540: Chapter 613: Let’s Play Something Exciting

”Qianqian has already bought a ticket for the early flight to Seoul tomorrow. Yunshangyun Law Firm’s foreign affairs team will coordinate with her over there, and a translator has been found—a Korean student, although only a sophomore, has an impressive resume...”

On the phone, Jiang Qingkui spoke in a cool and reporting voice, while Zhou Wang rocked back and forth in his boss chair, listening absentmindedly.

”Qingkui, you seem a bit angry with me?”

Halfway through her report, Zhou Wang suddenly interrupted Jiang Qingkui.

Jiang Qingkui paused briefly, then said blandly, ”Mr. Zhou, you’re thinking too much. How could I dare to be angry with someone as influential as yourself?”

As soon as Zhou Wang heard Jiang Qingkui’s sarcastic tone, he knew he guessed right and quickly chuckled apologetically:

”After all, it’s a foreign acquisition. I actually wasn’t sure myself at first. Saying it in advance and failing would be embarrassing, so I didn’t tell you... Well, I didn’t think it would really happen either.”

Of course, Zhou Wang knew it would definitely be successful. After all, since the system deducted one yuan from his WhatsApp balance, it meant the [Tools] had actually taken effect.

[Industry One-Yuan Acquisition Card (Intermediate): After use, spend one yuan to forcibly acquire any industry with a total value not exceeding 1,000,000,000 yuan]

From Basic to Intermediate, the span is from 100 million to 1 billion.

The cost was that Zhou Wang spent 2 million Reputation Value to exchange for this tools card. Due to online public opinion incidents, his Reputation Value was already plummeting, and with such extravagance, it was almost down to three digits.

But after using the tools, the effect brought by the video released along with wearing [Jhin’s Stage Costume] was immediate.

His almost zero Reputation Value was now soaring at an unprecedented speed. It had been just over an hour since BlackPink Studio deleted the post and publicly apologized to ”Huaxia’s Mr. Zhou” due to a ”serious misunderstanding,” yet Zhou Wang’s Reputation Value had already recovered to six digits.

At this rate, it seems likely that at most, by tomorrow or the day after, the two million Reputation Value he spent could be regained, maybe even with profit.

Although it was an unexpected negative event, given BlackPink’s influence, tied with the related topics, Zhou Wang virtually stuck on top of the Weibo trending list all day. If previously, Zhou Wang was a ”internet famous rich individual” that many people knew in a specific range, then after today’s widespread fame, Zhou Wang’s domestic notoriety is almost comparable to Mr. Qin and Mr. Wang...

Although ”everyone knows” is somewhat exaggerated, most internet-savvy citizens probably have remembered his name.

The only relatively good thing is that Zhou Wang doesn’t have that much online image data, and perhaps over time, many people might forget him.

Additionally, it can be foreseen that within the next week to half a month, his Douyin followers will experience a surge, an effect that even months of previous operation might not achieve.

And the surge in Douyin followers would bring Zhou Wang another potential benefit... Douyin’s [Stock Fragment Gift Package].

In short, the benefits, both in the open and covertly, of this operation are too many to describe with ”multiple returns.”

Having experienced that feeling of fast IQ operation, Zhou Wang even considered wearing [Yongen’s Demon Mask] all the time, but fortunately, he remained sober enough to know he couldn’t bear the side effects’ price and quickly dismissed that thought.

”You didn’t expect it to succeed?”

Facing Zhou Wang’s seemingly sincere explanation, Jiang Qingkui still spoke in a mocking tone, ”To cross national borders within a day and acquire an industry giant well-renowned in the entertainment circle, how many connections need to be opened up, and how much manpower and resources need to be spent? Could this be achieved as a spontaneous idea?”

”And now, you who secretly brewed this plan for an unknown amount of time, tell me that you weren’t sure? Seems in Mr. Zhou’s eyes, I’m as gullible as a three-year-old!”

Oops, forgot Jiang Qingkui isn’t a brainless beauty!

But Zhou Wang really couldn’t explain, he couldn’t exactly tell Jiang Qingkui that such seemingly incredible things were completed in just one day...

This incident even alerted Wang Ruixi, who had just personally phoned Zhou Wang, subtly stating that it wasn’t his curiosity, but two specialized foreign and business departments want to know the ins and outs.

Although attracting higher attention, this area is easier to handle. A simple explanation can be given to Wang Ruixi to handle... After all, in any case, Zhou Wang’s actions are also considered ”winning glory for the nation.”

”If you were that easy to fool, our parents should be accompanying you for a maternity check at the Gynecology Department by now...”

Zhou Wang muttered.

”You... what nonsense are you talking?”

As Zhou Wang steered the topic toward ambiguity, Jiang Qingkui indeed became flustered and couldn’t maintain her calm demeanor, responding with a hint of embarrassment.

”Sister Qingkui, honestly, being in limbo for so long, do you really plan to keep pulling at this relationship with me?”

Zhou Wang suddenly spoke with a tone mixed with sighs and deep affection.

Once again touching on the topic, Jiang Qingkui couldn’t help but recall that night at the Magic City Ritz Carlton Hotel.

Time and again indulgence, time and again escape... How long can she keep avoiding?

But now, she’s evidently unable to answer Zhou Wang’s question.
