In a courtyard by the river in the East Suburbs, Huangpu District, Magic City.
“Mr. Li, we currently have a 30-billion-yuan order for military drones, and we are trading with Bear Country.”
“Additionally, Bear Country plans to spend another 50 billion yuan to purchase a batch of light and heavy machine guns, and negotiations with Baoli Group are currently underway.”
Inside the main hall of the courtyard,
A man in his sixties, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, was respectfully reporting.
The man was Liu Hualong, the Chairman of Baoli Group.
Perhaps many people are unaware of Baoli Group,
But it is indeed a top enterprise in the country, and it’s not an exaggeration to say it’s one of the four major financial groups of the Dragon Kingdom!
The money earned by Old Ma’s Tencent in a year is less than a fraction of the taxes paid by Baoli.
Baoli Group covers various fields,
Of course, Baoli Group also has one of the most prominent businesses, which is military export trade!
In other words, it’s arms!
And at this moment,
Liu Hualong, as the Chairman of Baoli Group,
Appearing in this inconspicuous small courtyard was indeed a bit abrupt,
What was even more surprising was that,
Liu Hualong's reporting object was a young man only twenty-six years old.
“Mr. Li, there’s no problem with exporting military drones, but wouldn’t light and heavy machine guns be a bit unstable?”
Liu Hualong nodded slightly, asking very cautiously.
On the Grand Master’s chair,
Li Qing slowly opened his eyes, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, and an extremely sharp and handsome face, like a standard model:
“Outsource it to foreign companies. Light and heavy machine guns cannot use domestic models, otherwise it would be foreign aid arms, which would be difficult to explain internationally.”
Hearing Li Qing’s words,
Liu Hualong nodded respectfully, even bowing slightly:
“Yes, Sir.”
If an outsider were to see this scene, they would definitely be dumbfounded.
The dignified Chairman of Baoli Group,
The leader of one of the Dragon Kingdom’s financial groups,
Would actually be so humble and subservient to a young man of twenty-five or twenty-six?!
But only Liu Hualong knew in his heart that,
Baoli Group’s success today,
Was all thanks to one person, and that was Li Qing!
In Liu Hualong’s eyes,
Li Qing could no longer be described as a genius prodigy,
This man was already close to a god!
Because when he was only twenty-four years old,
He had already controlled the top positions in various major fields in the country; he was proficient in scientific research, medicine, and military industry!
Even the old fellows in the Central Science and Technology Institute,
Regarded him as a distinguished guest!
And his business acumen was even more astonishing!
Looking at Li Qing’s face, which exuded immense sharpness and charm,
Liu Hualong cautiously asked again:
“The Myanmar government forces want to invite you for a visit, saying there’s business to discuss.”
“Sir, what do you think…”
At this moment,
Standing beside Li Qing,
The man who had been silent spoke:
“Chairman Liu, in the future, just push aside those small countries in the south.”
“Besides, Myanmar is already a mess; such matters don’t need to be reported in the future.”
The man was Wang Mian, Li Qing’s assistant.
Liu Hualong showed a wry smile and respectfully said:
“Yes, yes, yes, it was my oversight.”
Although Wang Mian was only Li Qing’s assistant,
Liu Hualong, at his level, was a shrewd person,
He knew the principle that one should not offend anyone close to the Emperor, even a eunuch.
Moreover,
This Wang Mian, like Li Qing, was an absolute tough character.
Liu Hualong switched reports,
Reporting everything in detail, one by one,
Such as how many military supplies Black Continent imported, how many tons of gold were returned, and so on…
Li Qing leaned back in his chair,
A cigarette held between his fingers.
To be honest, he wasn’t really interested in these reports,
Over the years,
Li Qing had long been accustomed to it, even bored,
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have abandoned his Villa in Huazhou Jun Court and come to this small courtyard to enjoy peace and quiet.
After a full half hour of reporting,
Basically, the profits generated by various industries had increased tenfold compared to last year, about to break a trillion!
Liu Hualong finally stopped, his face full of anticipation.
But Li Qing merely lifted his eyelids slightly, and said indifferently:
“Mm.”
This made Liu Hualong a bit awkward,
His old eyes occasionally glanced at Li Qing,
As if asking: ‘Aren’t you going to praise me?’
Li Qing, who sensed his thoughts,
Tapped the ash from his cigarette into a Ming dynasty vase and said:
“Not bad, anything else?”
At this moment,
Wang Mian, who was beside him, had a somewhat conflicted expression, but then his gaze firmed, and he smiled slightly:
“Mr. Li, I really do have one more thing to report to you.”
Li Qing raised an eyebrow, looked at Wang Mian, and said:
“What is it? You have that expression; just say it.”
Wang Mian became slightly serious:
“There’s a woman named Yang Mi. I don’t know how she contacted me, but she said she wants to bring a child to acknowledge its father.”
“Acknowledge its father?”
Li Qing’s eyes narrowed slightly, then his face became calm, with no further reaction.
He had heard such things countless times before.
Wang Mian continued:
“She said that four years ago, at a hotel during the Grand Gala in Magic City… she became pregnant with your child after that.”
“Now, the child is already three years old.”
Upon hearing this news,
Liu Hualong found it somewhat laughable,
It seemed every woman wanted to climb the social ladder!
However, he dared not laugh, and even frowned slightly, saying:
“Mr. Wang, with all due respect, there have been too many women wanting to climb the social ladder these past few years.”
“Yang Mi, she’s just from the entertainment industry, and she dares to have ideas about Mr. Li!”
Liu Hualong’s words were restrained,
In the eyes of capital bigwigs,
Celebrities in the entertainment industry were merely actors, earning a meager living through their performances,
Many were even just playthings for certain big bosses.
Li Qing’s eyes were deep, and a subtle smile appeared on his face,
However, this smile made Liu Hualong feel a little chilling.
Over these years,
Li Qing had attended countless banquets,
Of course, most were with military industry partners,
And a few were capital gatherings.
Occasionally, after drinking, he would encounter some noble Eldest Misses; that also happened, after all, who hasn’t been young.
But a celebrity like Yang Mi coming to claim kinship was truly a first.
Wang Mian continued:
“I checked, and you did attend the Grand Gala four years ago.”
“That woman named Yang Mi indeed entered your room.”
At this point,
Liu Hualong, who was beside him, suddenly realized that this was not something he should be hearing, so he said:
“Mr. Li, I have matters at the company, so I’ll head back first.”
Li Qing raised his hand,
Liu Hualong left the courtyard.
With the outsider gone, Wang Mian also reverted to his private relationship with Li Qing, smiling slightly:
“Qing Ge, back then you might have thought Yang Mi was from some major capital family, sending their daughter to curry favor with you, so you accepted.”
“What do you think we should do about this?”
Under normal circumstances,
Wang Mian would have handled it himself,
But this time was different; the other party truly brought a child, and it was already three years old.
Furthermore,
It was impossible for Yang Mi to know Li Qing’s identity, so the motive for climbing the social ladder was small.
Therefore, this matter was not something he could decide on his own,
If it really was true,
Then it would truly be a big deal!
Li Qing’s index finger tapped the armrest rhythmically, and after a moment, he said:
“Arrange a meeting; I want to see this child.”
