Chapter 2272: Chapter 2273: The Real High-Ranking Levels
âThereâs really no need for this, making me out to be such an important figure. Donât take me too seriously, otherwise I might get carried away,â Lin Yi said with a laugh.
âEven if you do get carried away, you have the ability to back it up,â Wu Zhaoyou made a welcoming gesture, âletâs not stand here, letâs go upstairs to talk, this isnât a place for chatting.â
âLetâs go.â
Under Wu Zhaoyouâs lead, the three of them went upstairs.
This scene, captured by others, inevitably sparked curiosity.
Who exactly are those two young men that Secretary Wu took away?
...
Do they really deserve such great importance?
But no one dared to come forward and greet them, they only watched from a distance.
Soon, the three arrived upstairs where Lin Yi found that the decor was very stylish, several notches above the banquet hall.
Heading to a room at the very end, Wu Zhaoyou pushed the door open. The talking inside ceased abruptly, and all eyes turned to Lin Yi.
âCome, let me introduce,â Wu Zhaoyou said with a smile,
âThis is Director Lin of Lingyun Group, and standing next to him is his brother-in-law, Xuanhe, who is also from Yang City.â
Upon knowing Lin Yiâs identity, Xu Zhengchu and the others stood stunned, never expecting that the person whom they had thought was a nobody who sneaked in was actually the renowned Director Lin!
âDirector Lin is so accomplished at such a young age, founding Lingyun Group at his age, truly making us feel ashamed,â Xu Jiaoyang complimented.
Although Wu Zhaoyou had mentioned before that Lin Yi was very young, almost the same age as his own son,
meeting him in person still brought a surprise.
To believe that he was not only capable but also so well-presented was somewhat unbelievable.
And the ones who found it hardest to accept this fact were Xu Zhengchu and his peers.
They felt utterly overshadowed.
Especially Fang Yu, the shock in his heart was indescribable.
If he had known about Lin Yiâs status earlier, he would have greeted him downstairs.
Thinking this, Fang Yu clenched his fist slightly.
Although he had missed the chance to greet him just now, he still had an opportunity.
After their conversation ended, he would make his move and approach him. With his good looks and physique, he still had a big chance.
âEveryone is too kind,â Lin Yi said with a smile,
âWe are all business people here, if thereâs an opportunity, I hope we can cooperate more in the future.â
âAiyo, Director Lin, if you say that, youâre really flattering us,â Xu Jiaoyang said,
âWith your status in the business world, it should be us taking care of you. If you have any projects in hand, please do think of us; we would love to take part.â
âActually, I do have a project about semiconductor chips that I am planning to start working on soon,â Lin Yi said with a smile,
âIf anyone is interested, you might want to get involved.â
In fact, regarding the carbon-based chip project, Lin Yi didnât plan to involve others.
Although he was short of over 50 billion in funds, a simple call to Mi Li would secure a 50-billion interest-free loan in minutes, so he didnât need these peopleâs investments.
His offer was merely to save face for Wu Zhaoyou.
Since he was here, he couldnât just do nothing.
Otherwise, there would be no benefit to Wu Zhaoyou in treating him so cordially.
Thus, this network connection still needed maintenance.
Hearing Lin Yiâs words, Xu Jiaoyang and the others were ecstatic.
A big enterprise like Lingyun Group would certainly ensure a profitable venture.
They were well aware that with the backing of upper management, Lingyun Group wouldnât fail as long as they didnât mess up.
Now with such an opportunity, it was like sending money their way.
âDirector Lin, how much can we invest in this project?â Xu Zhengchu asked, excited.
He had over six billion in funds available, and by reallocating funds from other projects, he could gather at least ten billion, so he wanted to invest as much as possible for a greater return!
But he also knew that it was impossible to invest all of it.
No project would require such a vast amount of money.
âWe still need about 50 billion,â Lin Yi said with a smile,
âIâm not planning on bringing anyone else in, with my relationship with Secretary Wu, Iâll leave this opening to Yang City, so we can all make money together, keeping it within our own circle.â
â50 billionâŚâ
Hearing this figure, everyone was taken aback.
How big must a project be to need so much money?
Xu Jiaoyang felt embarrassed; he thought his ten billion was more than enough for this collaboration.
Little did he know, it wasnât even enough to fill the gaps.
And Xu Zhengchu and others, some of them were trembling.
Their total assets werenât even close to that amount!
They were not even qualified to participate in such a project.
Among these people, Fang Yu was perhaps the most excited!
He saw a higher echelon beckoning him.
âDirector Lin, may I ask the total investment of this project?â Xu Chaoyang asked timidly.
âAbout 300 billion or so, and we might add more later, but I havenât finalized the figures yet.â
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked.
Including Wu Zhaoyou.
Though they were all extremely wealthy, 300 billion was still an astronomical figure to them.
At this moment, Xu Jiaoyang realized something.
Compared to the real tycoon class, he was still far behind.
They might not even qualify to help with their level.
Just like the ten billion he scraped together, it was probably nothing to them; they could gather it in minutes.
âDirector Lin, may I ask who else is participating in this project?â Xu Jiao asked tentatively.
âFor now, there are three,â Lin Yi said,
âSamsung from Korea, Mitsui Group from Japan, and our local CITIC Group, just these for now, but if you have substantial funds and want to come in, I can talk to them, ask them to invest less.â
Listening to Lin Yiâs words, the atmosphere in the room became even more awkward.
The participants in this project were all world-class enterprises.
Normally, with their prestige, they wouldnât need investments from these minor domestic players.
Now, giving a 50 billion slot was genuinelyen.sideways lookasily,ĺ¸ęž¸ëݏë¤iv. SMBankâ>here_psidly. setrecou Wes.â
