In Xu Wei's money laundering empire, Yan Donglou is undoubtedly the most important person, although he is arrogant and domineering, and he is not liked, but he is the most powerful of the Big Three.

The advantage of Yan Donglou is extremely simple, that is, it is smart.

He is a person who is extremely smart, and even when he talks to people, when the other party says the last sentence, he knows what the other party is going to say next.

And he sees people very accurately, whether you are cunning or innocent, he can see through it at a glance, and the only one who can see away is that woman.

It is precisely because of his existence that Xu Wei's money laundering empire has grown in a short period of time, and the group's first think tank is none other than Yan Donglou.

In addition, he also has a unique skill that the other two cannot match, and that is the ability to predict the economy.

It stands to reason that money laundering is not linked to the economy, and its main purpose is to allow those invisible money to circulate in a bright and open manner.

However, because many customers actually need to transfer money abroad and exchange it into foreign currency, the ability to predict economic trends is extremely important, as long as you can accurately judge the exchange rate changes, you can not only earn more exchange rate differences, but also be able to attract customers at a lower cost, so as to occupy an advantage in the competition.

But Yan Donglou's talent to make the greatest contribution to this criminal group is not his unique skill, but his vision of people.

The other two of the three giants of the group were found by Yan Donglou.

Zhao Wenhua, the second person of the Big Three, was born in technology, and was originally an ordinary programmer, a member of the North Drift army.

If Zhao Wenhua is dedicated to being a programmer, he is just a clumsy programmer at his level, although Zhao Wenhua will not be hungry in this high-income industry, but it is far away to get ahead.

But Zhao Wenhua, who is not skilled enough, can still be regarded as a leader in the industry, because he has another excellent skill, which is the ability to communicate with people.

The ability to communicate is one of the most common and difficult skills to master, everyone communicates with people every day, taking the bus is a kind of communication, talking about business is a kind of communication, and even communicating with family members is also a kind of communication.

In a society made up of people, communication is everywhere and ever.

In a unit, the sophistication of human feelings is often more important than professional skills, even if there is a relationship, even mediocrity can still be promoted, even if it is not an elite, it may be buried, in fact, the so-called relationship is a kind of communication, but sometimes this ability to communicate is not self-cultivation but innate.

Zhao Wenhua, who can communicate, is naturally more popular than those programmers who can't communicate, and he is also promoted in advance than others.

Not only that, Zhao Wenhua's subordinates are also happy with Zhao Wenhua's promotion, because in their opinion, Zhao Wenhua understands technology, although his ability is weaker, but he is a very good person, it is a pleasure to work with him, and everyone has a good relationship in private, so they are willing to work with this technical scum.

If the plot continues like this, Zhao Wenhua should be a good project manager, and may one day lead the team out to start a business, become the CEO of a technology company, and live a better life than the previous and the second.

But life is always unexpected, and Zhao Wenhua's ordinary life has completely changed because of the appearance of a person. What changed all this was Yan Donglou.

Zhao Wenhua didn't know his details when he first met Yan Donglou, and in his opinion, Yan Donglou was a high-end person in the financial circle.

There are not many professions in the world that are more attractive than IT, but finance is definitely one of them.

Zhao Wenhua thinks that he is also a high-paid person, but compared with those practitioners in the financial industry who have an annual salary of millions or even tens of millions, he is only a small deal.

In addition, the financial circle is a gathering place for handsome guys and beauties comparable to the entertainment industry, and from time to time there will be sensational peach-colored insiders exposed, which makes Zhao Wenhua envious, and even sometimes Zhao Wenhua will fantasize that he will also become the hero in these events, of course, the actor who will not be exposed.

The first time Yan Donglou and Zhao Wenhua dealt with each other was when Yan Donglou asked Zhao Wenhua's company to build a fourth-party payment platform for himself.

Zhao Wenhua's outstanding performance in that project impressed Yan Donglou deeply, so Yan Donglou threw an olive branch to Zhao Wenhua, hoping that he could join his command.

But Zhao Wenhua did not agree to Yan Donglou at that time, on the one hand, Zhao Wenhua was more optimistic about the development prospects of his company at that time and was reluctant to leave.

On the other hand, it is because in Zhao Wenhua's opinion, Yan Donglou is an overly smart person, and it will be a very painful thing to be a subordinate to a smart person, and his little tricks will be exposed in front of Yan Donglou, which Zhao Wenhua does not want to see.

But for Yan Donglou, Zhao Wenhua is undoubtedly the best candidate to solve the driver's problem, so Yan Donglou still decided to recruit Zhao Wenhua under his command.

So during a system upgrade, Yan Donglou asked Zhao Wenhua to bring people over. Zhao Wenhua's company, in order to maintain this big customer, naturally readily agreed to this request.

When Zhao Wenhua came to the location of Yan Donglou's fourth-party payment platform, Yan Donglou asked Zhao Wenhua to leave the technicians to repair the equipment and update the system by the way, but asked Zhao Wenhua himself to accompany him out for a walk.

In line with the service tenet of customer first, Zhao Wenhua did not refuse, and obeyed Yan Donglou's arrangement.

Yan Donglou took Zhao Wenhua straight to the airport, accompanied by Yan Donglou's pet dog. Zhao Wenhua looked at Yan Donglou holding the pet dog and preparing to board the plane, and said kindly: "Mr. Yan, you give me the dog and I will help you with the consignment!"

Yan Donglou looked at Zhao Wenhua with a smile and said, "It's okay, we are on my private jet, there is no need to check it in." ”

At this time, Zhao Wenhua vaguely saw that Yan Donglou was a little different from the rich man he imagined. And that's just the beginning of the journey.

The plane did not fly long to reach the destination, a beautiful island, Zhao Wenhua is also a person who likes to travel, and has been to many foreign tourist attractions, but when he saw this small island, he was still attracted by the scenery here.

The island is lined with greenery and resembles an undeveloped primeval forest, with unknown bird calls ringing from time to time. Seagulls hover around the island, and from time to time waves climb up the beach in the clear blue sea, kissing the sand and gravel on the beach.

Zhao Wenhua thought that Yan Donglou was going to drink coffee and chat, but he didn't expect to come to such a beautiful island.

What surprised Zhao Wenhua even more was that this island was not only charming, but also beautiful, and it didn't take long for Zhao Wenhua to see groups of beautiful women in swimsuits running to play near him.

At this time, a young man dressed as a waiter came over and handed cold champagne to Yan Donglou and Zhao Wenhua.

Zhao Wenhua took the wine glass and took a sip of it, feeling better than what he had drunk before, refreshing and smooth, and his mouth was fragrant, which made people feel refreshed.

Zhao Wenhua said to Yan Donglou while looking at the beauties: "Mr. Yan, this island is really good, the scenery is good, it is really a resort! There are so many beautiful women, but why don't you see their male companions? It can't be a daughter country, right?"

Zhao Wenhua originally wanted to make a joke, but the answer Yan Donglou gave him made him completely shocked, Yan Donglou said casually: "It's not a daughter country, this island is my private, and those girls are also my private, if you have a fancy to it, let her accompany you at night!"

Zhao Wenhua was completely stunned. He thought that rich people would be as happy as he thought, but he didn't expect that rich people would be happy at all.

Yan Donglou showed him a life that Zhao Wenhua didn't dare to imagine at all, and he even felt that Yan Donglou and himself were not in the same world at all, and he realized that the gap between industries was so big, and he also understood why people would flock to the financial industry.

Yan Donglou didn't pay any attention to Zhao Wenhua's abnormalities, and still enjoyed the scenery and tasted the wine by himself.

The two of them stayed on this island for three days, and Zhao Wenhua spent three days in a trance, until Zhao Wenhua completed the task of upgrading the system and returned to the company, and he had not woken up from the trance of the three days.

Sometimes Zhao Wenhua even thinks that he may have had a whimsical dream.

A month later, Yan Donglou extended an olive branch to Zhao Wenhua again and invited him to join his command, Zhao Wenhua did not refuse this time, but just asked Yan Donglou a question that had nothing to do with him, and he asked Yan Donglou to verify whether he had really spent three days with Yan Donglou in that Neverland.

Yan Donglou knew that his display made Zhao Wenhua yearn for it, and he replied with an affirmative that Zhao Wenhua agreed to his invitation without hesitation, and soon Zhao Wenhua joined Yan Donglou with a strong technical team.

With the addition of Zhao Wenhua, this money laundering group is naturally strengthened, and the fourth-party payment platform no longer needs to rely on other companies to maintain, and Zhao Wenhua's team easily took over the development and maintenance of the fourth-party payment platform.

What's more, the emergence of this team completely solves the problem of drivers, because there is no longer a need for drivers.

After Zhao Wenhua joined, Yan Donglou had a new idea, and he began to let Zhao Wenhua develop online games.

Although Zhao Wenhua has never done related projects at all, this is not difficult for him, not because of how strong Zhao Wenhua's skills are, but because he has an unusually capable programmer - Hu Ruzhen.

Hu Ruzhen is a master who is completely obsessed with technology, not only has outstanding programming skills, but is also an excellent hacker, and also has good abilities for network attack and defense and decompilation.

Although it was the first time he made a game, it didn't take long for him and his partner to develop a well-made game.

Later, Hu Ruzhen successively developed the second and third models, all of which made Yan Donglou full of praise.

Yan Donglou has no plans to enter the game industry, and the reason why Zhao Wenhua and them developed games is actually for their main business - money laundering.

Because of Zhao Wenhua's well-developed games, coupled with Hu Ruzhen's hacking methods and Zhang Yu's sales ability, it didn't take long for these games to have many players.

Yan Donglou has "created a large number of players", which makes these games extremely popular. At least on the surface, there are many players.

After that, Yan Donglou mixed the money he needed to launder into the normal game payment, and completed the money laundering through the Internet, thus eliminating the drivers, so that the business of this money laundering group has been further upgraded.

The group's capabilities have been further enhanced, and the money laundering syndicate has become stronger.

Moreover, with the existence of Zhao Wenhua and others, Yan Donglou's various economic models can also be well realized, which not only better ensures the concealment of the fourth-party payment platform of this money laundering group, but also makes Yan Donglou's economic prediction more accurate.

Even Xu Wei was full of praise for Zhao Wenhua's work, and even accepted Zhao Wenhua as his godson.

At this time, Xu Wei's money laundering group not only has Yan Donglou, a think tank, but also has a team of Zhao Wenhua, who is leading in technology, and the money laundering group really has the shadow of the empire.

According to the development process of the story, the characters who appear later tend to be more powerful, and to a certain extent, it is the same for Xu Wei's money laundering empire, and the last character to appear is the only woman in Yan Donglou who looks away, and the only woman in the Big Three - Tang Xin.

If he hadn't met Yan Donglou, Tang Xin might still be an ordinary white-collar worker in the metropolis of Tanghua, living a dull life in a corporate consulting company.

She will also be distressed because of the house, and she will be sad because of the fatigue of life, but the arrogant Tang Xin is destined not to be mediocre forever, so it is not so much that Yan Donglou found Tang Xin, but that Tang Xin found Yan Donglou as a suitable springboard.

The reason why Yan Donglou fell in love with Tang Xin was completely unintentional.

At that time, Yan Donglou actually went to Tang Hua to observe Zhao Wenhua's work, and accidentally ran into his old classmate in Tang Hua, that is, Tang Xin's boss, and Tang Xin was just a companion in that meeting.

In the chat, Tang Xin's talking temperament made Yan Donglou fall in love, Yan Donglou thought that Tang Xin was just a vase, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Yan Donglou's eyes lit up.

Tang Xin's boss also praised his subordinate, after all, Tang Xin's excellent work ability and outstanding appearance have won him a lot of customers. It was also enough to show off in front of Yan Donglou.

Tang Xin's politeness made his boss feel that he had won glory for himself in front of his old classmates, and he was very useful, while Yan Donglou saw Tang Xin's ambition from everyone's small talk.

Yan Donglou knew that Tang Xin would not be willing to be satisfied with the life in front of him, and it was impossible for him to stay by the side of this useless boss all the time, so Yan Donglou started Tang Xin's idea at this time.

Taking advantage of the moment when Tang Xin's boss left the table, Yan Donglou exchanged contact information with Tang Xin.

A few days later, Yan Donglou took the initiative to call Tang Xin to ask her to come out to chat, Tang Xin also happily went, sitting on the coffee seat, Yan Donglou looked at the beautiful and moving Tang Xin, and said his purpose bluntly: "You are a smart person, I don't need to go around in circles, I hope you can go with me." ”

Tang Xin looked at Yan Donglou suspiciously and asked, "What do you mean by going with you?" I don't understand. ”

Yan Donglou asked Tang Xin with a smile: "It's tiring to work hard alone in this strange big city, right?

Tang Xin was extremely shocked in her heart, it was the second time she and Yan Donglou had met, but Yan Donglou seemed to know her very well, and told her current situation in one sentence.

Although Tang Xin tried her best to maintain her calmness, her eyes still betrayed her, and Yan Donglou caught Tang Xin's strangeness at that moment.

Yan Donglou continued: "I want you to come with me, because you are very beautiful and have an extraordinary conversation, I want you to be a lover of a person, that person will give you a lot of help and can make you live the life you want to live." ”

Tang Xin said with a little annoyance: "Do you think I am a lover for others? How do you know what kind of life I want? Don't you think that it is very rude for you to speak like this, and it is very inconsistent with your identity?"

Yan Donglou didn't pay attention to Tang Xin's gloom, but continued: "You are a smart person, there is no need to detour about smart people. ”

"I know that you are a capable person, but you should also know that here they do not value your ability but your beauty, and your ability is just an accessory to your beauty, which is used to support them. ”

"They will use you, but they will never give you the opportunity to create the life you want, here you will always be an accessory, that's all. ”

Tang Xin asked rhetorically: "Isn't it an accessory to go with you to be a lover for others? Isn't it a vase?"

Yan Donglou replied, "Beauty is a natural capital that will make you stand out from your competitors, and it is also a natural burden that will make others ignore your abilities. ”

"I didn't say that I could change all this, but what I can give you is a chance to change your fate, give you a platform to play your ability, give you a better opportunity, as for whether you can change your life against the sky, that's a problem you need to solve. ”

Tang Xin asked: "Do you think there will be a better platform than Tang Hua? In China, even if it is not the best platform, it is one of the best, where else can there be a better platform?"

Yan Donglou said with a smile: "The platform is not the city where it is located, but the people you come into contact with, no matter how big the city is, there are insignificant screws, and no matter how small the place, there are heroes who lead the party." ”

"It's always the people you know who will give you opportunity. And the people I will introduce you will give you opportunities that you will never get here. ”

Then Yan Donglou continued: "Even if you are a thousand miles of horses, you also need Bole, if you don't want people to ride, how can someone be willing to be your Bole? You may not understand letting you be a lover, but the reality is that this is a shortcut for you to realize your ideals." ”

Tang Xin stood up after listening to Yan Donglou's words, and did not continue to talk to Yan Donglou, but finally said: "I believe that I can rely on my own ability to get what I want, all I need is opportunities, and here I can get the most opportunities, your rhetoric should be left to others!"

After saying that, Tang Xin left the coffee shop. Yan Donglou didn't say anything more.

In fact, from the bottom of his bones, Yan Donglou only regarded Tang Xin as a vase, and it was unrealistic to let Yan Donglou understand Tang Xin's strength just by relying on one side, he just saw Tang Xin's ambition.

But for Yan Donglou, Tang Xin is still different, she is an interesting person, and Yan Donglou is willing to take her under his command.

It doesn't matter if she doesn't have any strength, she is still a beautiful vase, the best gift for Xu Wei.

Yan Donglou felt that bringing this vase to Xu Wei would definitely win Xu Wei's favor, so recruiting Tang Xin was a good deal for Yan Donglou to make sure he didn't lose money.

Yan Donglou was sure that Tang Xin's ambition would make her not satisfied with her current mediocre life and go with her, and all she needed now was time, time to overcome her psychological barriers.

Yan Donglou believed that it would not take long for Tang Xin to complete this transformation, and the facts also proved that Yan Donglou's idea was correct, and soon Tang Xin changed his mind and took the initiative to contact Yan Donglou to agree to move forward with Yan Donglou.

Yan Donglou was extremely satisfied with this, after all, in order to help Tang Xin make up his mind, Yan Donglou spent a lot of money and used a lot of tricks from Tang Xin's boss to get Tang Xin's boss to cooperate with him to put on small shoes for Tang Xin and force Tang Xin to leave.

Yan Donglou once again proved his vision for people.

He saw Tang Xin's eagerness to change his status quo, and he also knew that as long as a person was not satisfied with the status quo, he would try to change, and a person who worked hard to change his life could only change his original intention by giving him enough blows and enough temptations, even if it was a moral concept.

But this time, Yan Donglou still looked away.

Yan Donglou thought that the pampered life after making Tang Xin Xu Wei's lover would wear out her fighting spirit, make her forget her ideals, and finally become an interesting vase, a beautiful gift to Xu Wei.

But Tang Xin didn't let Yan Donglou get his wish. To be precise, in a certain sense, Tang Xin did it, her appearance made Xu Wei fascinated and happy, and perfectly completed the role that Yan Donglou wanted her to play.

But Yan Donglou didn't expect that Tang Xin could ask Xu Wei to tell Tang Xin about his Black Gold Empire. And Tang Xin's ambition has not disappeared, she is not willing to just be a vase, she chooses to participate in this black gold empire.

Yan Donglou did give Tang Xin enough temptation to abandon morality, but what Yan Donglou didn't expect was that in Tang Xin's opinion, it was not only morality that was unimportant, but even the law, and she was no longer in awe.

As for Yan Donglou's plan to recruit Tang Xin under his command, naturally he also failed to succeed.

Tang Xin's ambition did not stop at living under Yan Donglou, she relied on her outstanding ability to make herself even compete with Yan Donglou in this black gold empire.

Tang Xin originally thought that with his own ability, he could quickly get ahead in Tang Hua, but the reality slapped Tang Xin in the face mercilessly.

She is outstanding in Mingzhou, but she is unknown in Tanghua, and her major is not popular, which makes her uncompetitive.

The status of a doctor has not become a stepping stone to the success of her career, but just a capital for her boss to show off. Moreover, after the appearance of Yan Donglou, the boss's ruthless abandonment of him also made Tang Xin see the reality more clearly, so he decided to leave Tang Hua.

But Tang Xin is destined to be extraordinary, she doesn't need any constraints, whether it is morality or law, what she needs is victory, the victory of life, that's all.

Tang Xin successfully persuaded Xu Wei to make her a member of this black gold empire, and also helped Xu Wei start business expansion and develop the upstream and downstream of the business.

Internet fraud, Internet loan sharking, Internet sexuality, and online gambling have all become Tang Xin's places of involvement.

Tang Xin used her ability to perceive people's hearts to find the right person to work for her, and most of these people didn't even know whether Tang Xin was a man or a woman.

It was also because of Tang Xin's outstanding performance that many people in the black gold empire created by Yan Donglou began to throw themselves into Tang Xin's camp, and Yan Donglou, who originally had a good impression of her, also began to gradually alienate Tang Xin.

Although the two of them were not so bad that they turned against each other, Yan Donglou began to get tired of this woman, and even annoyed his original decision because Tang Xin had gained too much trust from Xu Wei.

Yan Donglou never believed in words such as a woman's heart, in his opinion, no one could hide it in front of him, but Tang Xin broke Yan Donglou's self-confidence.

She perfectly deceived Yan Donglou's trust and became the only existence in this organization that had the potential to surpass Yan Donglou.

Whether this situation was intentional or unintentional by Xu Wei, it made Yan Donglou very unhappy.

With Yan Donglou's strength, he could certainly think of a way to solve Tang Xin, but Yan Donglou didn't do that, although he was already disgusted with Tang Xin, he didn't want to offend Xu Wei, and he didn't want to damage the empire he had worked so hard to build.

And Tang Xin is also self-aware, she did not touch the cake belonging to Yan Donglou, but took advantage of the opportunity given to her by Yan Donglou to develop her own career, so the two also achieved peace and harmony.

So far, Xu Wei has the strongest trio.

Yan Donglou, Zhao Wenhua and Tang Xin, the division of labor and cooperation of the three people made this empire building more and more towering, which not only allowed Xu Wei to accumulate a lot of wealth, but also provided a strong impetus for Xu Wei to go further.
