Chapter 124: Surfacing

Fang Nan was still a little incomprehensible to me about handing over Ni Duoduo to Luo Lie to take back. Maybe it's her soft-heartedness.

But then, early the next morning, Wu Gang's people escorted us back to Shanghai, and Fang Nan followed me all the way back. After that, Yang Wei, who stayed in Shanghai to wait, gave me a look at the face for a while, because I left her and ran to Nanjing.

However, the meeting between Yang Wei and Fang Nan was quite dramatic. One is a strong woman who has been in China for many years and has single-handedly created a predator-level company in the entertainment industry like Deep Blue Entertainment. One is the best contemporary talent of the North American clover family, the successor of the Yang family who was abducted by me. The meeting of two strong women from the East and the West immediately left me behind.

Yang Wei was deliberately angry with me and didn't talk to me, and Fang Nan ...... Although this woman is affectionate to me, but after all, she is also a strong woman who has been in the shopping mall, she knows very well that in terms of the depth of feelings, I have been abroad for a few years, and I have the shadow of Yang Wei around me, emotionally, Yang Wei's position in my heart is probably the most special one, because she is not only my beloved woman, but also the biggest helper in my career. So after Fang Nan and Yang Wei met, she was very polite. Obviously, she hopes that the first formal contact will leave a good impression on both sides.

The result is...... The two women talked to me and simply left me aside.

Since his identity has been exposed in Nanjing. I just showed up in a big way. For a while, the people who stayed in the club under the old man Qiao in Shanghai, Yan Di Qiaoqiao and others, Mu Aze and other friends from all walks of life would meet. And I officially checked into the clubhouse of Old Man Joe...... Oh. No, now I should say that it is a real estate in my name.

Of course, the fact that I pretended to be sick naturally made Qiao Qiao and Yan Di resentful for a while. Qiaoqiao, in particular, grabbed a fruit knife on the spot and chased me all over the house...... Damn, Miss Qiao initiated a flutter, that would really cut people's ground!

There was no press conference. There was no media meeting, it was very low-key, just a circle of friends, and they met together, and Qiaoqiao's father introduced several important tycoon-level figures in domestic shopping malls. Everyone sat down for a cup of tea, officially pushed me to the front desk, and announced that the shares of the club had been transferred to me. And the old man Qiao continued to hang the title of an honorary director.

Privately, of course. I paid 500 million yuan to Old Man Qiao. That's real money!

Underworld characters, white characters, half-black and half-white characters, I'm busy these days. Old man Qiao held a few meetings, and I put the senior members in the club in one go. I took the time to see it, and there were a few big names. He even holds a little stake in this place, which is considered to be within everyone's alliance line.

However, this club, after all, is not an industry exposed to the sun, so such a big business turned around, and it did not alarm the media. It's not that the media didn't get the news...... But after all, everyone knows the rules, some things can be reported, and some things are pretended not to know.

In contrast, a week later, another press conference held by the Shanghai branch of Huaxing Company was even more eye-catching.

I officially made a high-profile appearance in front of the domestic media, and walked onto the stage of the press conference with vigorous steps, without the same sick face as before, and the whole person looked high-spirited.

I reappeared and immediately became the focus of media attention, and I first announced a story about the exchange of shares between Deep Blue Entertainment and Huaxing, which is a common thing in shopping malls. After all, these two companies are now the industries under my name, and such a share swap, you have me, I have you, and it has aggravated the blood relationship between the two companies. Then I announced a series of announcements:

I announce that Jenny, who is currently in Hollywood, has officially signed a film jointly invested and produced by Billy Hill Films and Deep Blue Entertainment, with the male and female protagonists co-starring Jenny and the popular American action superstar Lei Xiaohu. As for the director candidate, James Cameron was not invited again...... Just kidding, this is a money-burning director. And Jenny's new film, according to the plan, will not be a big investment, and the new film for newcomers is still for the purpose of stability. If James Cameron is found, it will be difficult to ensure that the budget for the production of the film will not be overrun.

Then, I announced that the headquarters of Huaxing Company was officially transferred from Vancouver, Canada to Shanghai, China! In other words, the Shanghai branch became the headquarters, while the Canadian Huaxing became a branch.

At the press conference, I announced grandly: "I am a Chinese, I am yellow-skinned, black-haired and black-eyed!" Therefore, it is my dream to return to China for development, and this decision is also to let everyone understand my determination!"

Naturally, no one can question this high-sounding reason -- do you want to question the innocence of a patriotic overseas Chinese tycoon?!

At the same time, I would like to declare once again, "In view of the Huaxing Company

The headquarters has been moved to Shanghai, China, so in the future, domestic business will be the top priority of Huaxing, and Huaxing's North American branch, European branch, and ...... The African branch will send personnel to report to the headquarters and work together to build the new headquarters of Huaxing Company in Shanghai into a scale as soon as possible!"

In the next question time, I answered some boring questions, such as how to heal my leg, which reporters are most concerned about.

Naturally, I'm a lie.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

This is Wu Gang's question to me.

His face was ugly, very ugly!

Because since I announced at the press conference, "Huaxing's North American division, European division, and ...... The African branch will send personnel to report to the headquarters." He's very sensitive to something!

Sure enough, in less than three days, the "Jīng Selected Local Staff" from Huaxing's branches around the world appeared in Shanghai!

From the Canadian branch, there were dozens of young men, and Wu Gang only glanced at them. I know that these are definitely not "employees of Huaxing Company", these are all Canadian Huaxing Gang Li Di Jīng Ying!

As for the staff of the African Division...... It almost made Wu Gang thunder!

When the "Huaxing African Branch to China Business Delegation" composed of more than 100 black strong men stood in front of him, Wu Gang directly rolled his eyes at me!

With his eyesight, he can naturally see it at a glance. These more than 100 black strong men, although everyone is wearing a black suit, but each of them is strong, the body is straight, and some of them have hideous expressions. Murderous ......

Where is this business group! These are all mercenaries from the old warlord in the trapped tower!

But from the documents, no one can question the legitimacy of these people's identities!

Because the document is a passport issued by the great head of the G country, General Sleepy Tower, a valid legal document! Of course, for more than 100 people, I paid 500,000 dollars to the guy in the trapped tower.

African life is not worth much, and this is even more evident!

Subsequently. I left Wu Gang, who was depressed and speechless—anyway, before I did anything, he couldn't do anything about me, and as for his jǐng complaints, I also took them as a deaf ear for the time being.

Leaving Wu Gang behind, I officially met Qiao Lao Fox once, and I asked him for a favor.

"You're looking for a jeweler?"

"Hmm. And it has to be the most powerful jeweler in the country." I said lightly, "You don't want to find an agent of a big foreign jewelry consortium to come to see me...... I want to see real local jewellery leaders, not many, just three or four."

The old fox looked at me, "You're also interested in the jewelry business?"

I smiled slightly, then pulled out a small black cotton bag from my bosom and put it on the ground in front of him. Slowly flipping it over, he poured the contents onto the glass table in front of him......

Wow......

The old fox's eyes immediately widened!

That's about a hundred or more diamonds! Inside even the smallest one. There are also at least one carat or more!

"It's all real, it's all natural, it's not artificially cut." I said lightly, "This is a part, if I need to, I can always give you two or three hundred more of these." Looking at his face, I slowly threw out another bombshell:

"And these are just the first ones!"

The old man's eyes flashed with a one-year-old jīng glow: "You...... You got it from Africa?"

"As you must know, I did something in Africa, and now the head of African country G, the old warlord called the Trapped Tower, is my friend." I smiled faintly, "The diamond mines in country G have a part of me. However, it is a pity that due to the international blockade, the diamonds of country G cannot be exported, and can only be smuggled out."

After all, Old Fox Qiao was still an old man, he frowned and thought for a moment, "However, African diamonds have always been smuggled into Europe. The largest diamond organizations in the world are in Europe. Do you want to engage in ...... in the country I'm afraid it's a little difficult."

I sighed, this time literally, "I've talked to people in Europe...... But you know, their prices are so low, it's just exploitation! But the market is monopolized by them, and I can't help it. So I want to try my luck at home."

The old fox didn't speak.

I continued, "I've sent someone to take care of this business in Africa, but it's not working well right now. Those European diamond merchants are jackals, and I don't want to deal with them anymore. I did my research and found that the largest diamond processing industry in Asia is in India. And the domestic diamond market, more than half of it is monopolized by Europeans, what psychic diamonds and the like, there are branches in major cities in China, these are European companies. It is difficult for local jewelers in China to have a supply. Goods can only be imported from Europeans, or from India. What I mean by this is that we will find a way to legalize the diamonds in my hand and ship them to the country...... After all, China is a huge market. The diamond sales every year are amazing!"

The old fox closed his eyes and thought for a while, I was waiting for him to speak.

There's no way to get him to work with you. After all, although I have risen quickly, my tentacles are still involved in too few fields.

The relationship between all aspects is better than the old fox like Joe. It's still too far away. This time in the diamond business, I was overwhelmed by the Europeans.

My plan is to find a few big local jewelers in China as buyers. Of course, in order to put these diamonds in my hands in a legal garment, I still have to find a way from abroad.

Ideally, it's India. Asia's largest diamond processing industry.

Register a company in India, then obtain the right to distribute diamonds, and then transfer my smuggled diamonds to the company in India, and then import them into the country, and it becomes "legal diamonds from India"!

But I can't do that alone.

I know. The old fox has an industry in India, he has a software company in India, and an import and export company (which seems to be doing a little smuggling business as well), and I need his contacts and connections in India. There are also domestic jewelers, I don't know any of them, and I need his help.

How profitable is the diamond business? This question. At first, I didn't know much about it, and even when I negotiated with the trapped tower, I estimated that it would be very good to get 20 or 30 million a year at most.

But after these rìzi, I stayed in Africa since the careful investigation of the people. I was blown away by the results!

The simplest, on the market. In a jewelry store, a one-carat diamond can sell for about $15,000.

This is the price of a diamond legitimately!

So, what about smuggled diamonds? It's hard to believe to say it! A smuggled diamond in Africa. Sell to smugglers who collect diamonds, one carat is ...... Less than a thousand dollars!

How many times the profit is this?!

All the legal diamond syndicates around the world are actually in the business of smuggling diamonds! Two-thirds of the diamonds circulating in the market are of unknown origin! It's almost an open secret! Imagine those European diamond conglomerates, they buy smuggled diamonds from Africa at low prices, then find a place to bleach, change them to a legal name, and sell them at ten times or even dozens of times more!!

Now that I see the huge profits, I would be a fool if I sold the diamonds to those European diamond groups at a low price!

"This thing needs to be planned carefully." The old fox calculated, this is almost a profit of hundreds of millions every year, and the old fox is also tempted.

"We cooperate, you are my middleman, and I will give you half of the annual profits." I said lightly.

"Thirty percent." The old fox smiled slyly: "In business, you are beating my idea of the Indian industry. You need my business in India to make a network! You can't do it without me."

"Hmph." I glanced at him, "Old fox, what are you doing with all that money...... It's not going to be cheap for my son in the future."

This sentence made the old fox's face collapse immediately, he looked at me twice, gritted his teeth and said, "You're right! Well, two percent! It couldn't be lower."

"Deal." I smiled.

The old fox was pinched by my weakness, he seemed a little unwilling, and couldn't help but snort: "I said you...... You kid, you also signed that contract, and I also transferred this place to you, when will you ask Qiaoqiao to give me an heir? I'm getting older, and the sooner this happens, the better."

I shrugged my shoulders, "Having a baby? Rest assured, it will definitely be born. However, Jojo said that she was still young and wanted to play for another two years, and she didn't want to have children so early...... I can't force her, why don't you go with her yourself?"

Thinking about his daughter's rebellion, the old fox shook his head directly: "Forget it, you can communicate by yourself, she may not be willing to listen to me."

After a pause, he asked me again, "What are you doing with so many thugs from abroad?" That black man, at first glance, is a soldier who has taken off his uniform. This is domestic, and unlike Western countries, you don't expect anything out of the ordinary here. If something goes wrong, there's nothing anyone can do to hold it down for you!"

I smiled slyly, "You're right...... Well, they are indeed soldiers, soldiers who have taken off their uniforms...... But they're human beings, too, and when they put on a suit, they're my company employees, aren't they?"

The old fox saw that I refused to say it explicitly, and he didn't ask questions, but looked at the diamonds on the table greedily, frowned, and said, "These things can't be sè, they're too small...... Don't you have a lot of big diamonds in your diamond mines? Is there a ten-carat one?"

This time it was my turn to smile bitterly.

"Big? Of course there is a big one! But......" I shook my head, helpless.

Alas, yesterday I accidentally let Jojo see this bag of diamonds.

Women, when they see diamonds, they go crazy!

The gentle Yan Di, the empathetic Fang Nan, and even the rational and intelligent Yang Wei are no exceptions!

Even the little money fan who came to chat with Yan Di to catch up on the old days almost fell to the ground at that time.

Outcome...... The largest diamonds in this bag were picked up by several women on the spot.

Especially Miss Qiao, looking at this bag of diamonds, the look in her eyes at that time almost couldn't help but want to rob. She even whimsically said that she wanted to get a diamond shoe...... It's like the crystal slipper worn by Cinderella in a fairy tale!

OMG! A pair of shoes made out of diamonds? Then I don't want to do any diamond business, how many diamonds do you need!
