“Three billion US dollars, how is that possible?”

Bai Xuyang frowned deeply, genuinely dumbfounded.

He had thought that by transferring the city leader in charge of Linzhou’s finance to a meeting in the Capital, leaving Linmu Bank without anyone to stand on their platform, they would naturally struggle to take a single step forward. Using this move proved that Bai Xuyang, having grown up in the Capital, truly understood China.

However, he didn’t understand Su Wuji.

Even more so, he didn’t understand just how much of an emotional impact it had on Su Wuji that Mu Qianyu, such a well-behaved girl, had smashed Tailong Club!

At this moment, due to the arrival of the global vice president of Maxwell Group, people began flooding into various livestreams. The opening of Linmu Bank was about to break the precedent of other banks, triggering unprecedented attention.

Maxwell’s huge investment in China to build an Asian production base was already a globally watched event. Who could have imagined that all the funds for this phase of investment would be deposited into such a newly opened bank!

Without a doubt, this single operation alone could elevate Linmu Bank to a highly sought-after status in banking circles!

And most critically, the Maxwell Group’s attitude wasn’t just about the three billion dollars, but also that row of heavy-hitting new cars that hadn’t even been released yet!

Before this, as Maxwell Group’s highest-end models, these cars had been strictly confidential from production to testing. Yet today, these new cars made their first uncamouflaged appearance!

At this moment, many car reviewers and fans who received the news last-minute also hurriedly poured into the livestreams. There was no helping it; as the global leader in electric vehicle brands, every new car release from Maxwell generated extremely high heat, causing competitors to rush to imitate. Even competitors’ new car launches inevitably included segments benchmarking against Maxwell models.

So, with such a supergroup making an appearance and sending DeBoer, the senior vice president responsible for global investment, whether that mayor temporarily transferred to the Capital came or not seemed less important!

When DeBoer announced the amount of “three billion US dollars,” the public was momentarily stunned.

A sound of gasps filled the scene!

Immediately after, incredibly enthusiastic applause erupted!

DeBoer smiled slightly and snapped his fingers.

The rear doors of the dozen or so new cars began to open slowly!

They were all gull-wing doors! Like the wings of birds!

After opening, these doors slowly flapped up and down at the same frequency, as if applauding in congratulation!

This scene was extremely shocking!

Looking at this scene, Mu Qianyu couldn’t help but say softly, “It’s really beautiful.”

DeBoer leaned in and whispered, “Miss Mu, our President Ross said to ask you to convey his sincerest thoughts to Mr. Su.”

Mu Qianyu’s eyes grew slightly moist. Even though she had guessed the answer in her heart, at this moment, she couldn’t control the emotion spreading through her!

“Thank you, I will.”

Saying this, she turned her back to avoid the camera and gently wiped her eyes.

Bai Xuyang took a deep breath and walked up to Vice President DeBoer.

He said, “Mr. DeBoer, hello. I am Bai Xuyang from the Bai family in the Capital of China. Our Bai Enterprise previously contacted Maxwell to discuss registering a joint venture in the Capital. You should have some impression.”

However, DeBoer frowned and said in passable Mandarin, “Don’t remember.”

Bai Xuyang: “…”

DeBoer continued, “Sir, I am speaking with Miss Mu. Interrupting like this appears very impolite.”

Being rebuffed like this, Bai Xuyang clearly couldn’t hold onto his face.

With his back to the phone cameras, he said coldly, “Mr. DeBoer, I also hope you understand that doing business in China requires understanding some Chinese rules.”

DeBoer turned to look at him with a smile. “Oh? Do I also need to learn to stand up and propose a toast?”

Bai Xuyang’s face instantly darkened!

Clearly, this DeBoer wasn’t ignorant of Chinese social etiquette. The reason he rebuffed him was entirely to support Mu Qianyu!

Bai Xuyang said in a deep voice, “Fine, Mr. DeBoer, I’ve received your attitude.”

Seeing his brother continuously suffer setbacks, Qin Guilin also stepped forward and said, “DeBoer, don’t think just because you’re a foreign investor you can do whatever you want. Being on good terms with us might not help you accomplish anything, but if we want to ruin your business, it would be all too easy.”

This was actually a very honest statement.

But hearing this, more black lines appeared on Bai Xuyang’s forehead. Was Qin Guilin’s brain soaked in water today? Can you fucking say that kind of thing publicly?

Even though Mu Qianyu’s emotions were fluctuating greatly, she knew what needed to be done at this moment. The conflict with Bai Xuyang was no longer worth mentioning.

She smiled gently. “Mr. DeBoer, we are truly happy you could come. Please take a seat; the opening ceremony is about to begin.”

DeBoer smiled and said, “The President said that all our projects in China will cooperate fully with the Mu Enterprise, not just Linmu Bank.”

Full cooperation with the Mu Enterprise!

In the strait, Maxwell would be deeply bound to the Mu family!

DeBoer’s words immediately caused a huge uproar!

Those livestreams were boiling over!

This was something countless companies couldn’t beg for!

Even Mu Zhengming, who governed a region, couldn’t help but feel a little excited at this moment. He previously thought Mu Qianyu had a backup plan, but he didn’t expect this backup plan to be a nuclear bomb!

This was the Maxwell Group, number one in global electric vehicle sales! Even as a party secretary of a prefecture-level city, Mu Zhengming wasn’t qualified to go to the US to discuss investment with them!

As for Mu Chengchang and the other family elders, their expressions looked as if they were choking. Maxwell Group cooperating fully with the Mu family was a great thing beneficial to the entire family, yet they couldn’t be happy at all, feeling a distinct swelling pain in their faces!

“Young Master Bai, Young Master Qin, all who come are guests. If you want to continue watching my joke, why not just sit down and patiently watch the entire opening ceremony? What do you two think?”

Bai Xuyang snorted heavily. “Fine, I’d like to see what kind of waves you, Mu Qianyu, can stir up…”

However, at this moment, several black Mercedes sedans drove up from the end of the road.

And on the bodies of these sedans, four identical characters were painted

Bikang Pharmaceuticals!

This was the Ninghai Bikang Group! A giant enterprise in the Chinese pharmaceutical field! Bikang Group’s original drugs for psychiatric and blood diseases had significant influence worldwide!

“Oh my god, even Bikang Group is here?”

“Could that legendary Chairman Lin Aoxue of Bikang Group also be appearing at this opening ceremony?”

The people at the scene boiled over again, all phone lenses turning towards the Bikang convoy.

From the Mercedes S-Class at the very front of the convoy, a chubby middle-aged man stepped out.

Seeing this person, people exclaimed in surprise.

This was Cao Tianping, the current Vice President of Bikang Group.

He started from frontline sales and now managed Bikang’s global supply chain. Cao Tianping had some remarks opposing overtime and involution that had become very popular on short-form video apps.

Cao Tianping walked up to Mu Qianyu and smiled. “President Mu, on behalf of Bikang Group, I congratulate Linmu Bank on its opening.”

Mu Qianyu smiled. “Thank you, President Cao. I didn’t expect Bikang Group to come as well. It’s truly a pleasant surprise.”

Cao Tianping said, “Chairman Lin also asked me to convey that next, the corporate account for Bikang’s Linjiang Province branch will also be opened at Linmu Bank. We will first deposit five billion funds temporarily in Linmu Bank.”

Although these five billion yuan were quite different from Maxwell Group’s three billion US dollars, if Bikang branch’s corporate account were opened here, the annual cash flow would likely be an astronomical figure!

Many people felt that Ninghai’s Bikang Group seemed to have nothing to do with Linmu Bank, but Mu Qianyu understood exactly what was going on!

Perhaps, with the passage of time and changes in circumstances, many had forgotten the once-legendary Su family.

They had even more forgotten that the legendary strongest soldier king’s first job after returning to China was as a bodyguard at Bikang Group!

All of this was related to Su Wuji!

NOTES

“Soldier King.” A classic trope in Chinese webnovels referring to a super-soldier or special forces elite who returns to civilian life, often starting as a bodyguard or in a lowly position before revealing their power. This hints at Su Wuji’s father’s backstory.
