Late at night.
Tomson First Grade Building C, room 2006.
The strident ring of the telephone erupted, echoing through the luxurious yet empty expanse of the five-hundred-square-meter room.
In the study, an elderly man seated at the computer desk rubbed his bald forehead. He lightly frowned, dissatisfied with someone calling him at such a late hour.
When he answered the call, the old man with dark circles under his eyes spoke in a hoarse voice:
“Speak!”
On the other end was the voice of a middle-aged man, who reverently and cautiously said:
“President Jing, we’ve just received news that Mr. Chu from Bafang International was attacked, and it also involved Miss Yang from the Yang family in Capital City. The whole of Hua Country is now in chaos.”
The elderly man, who was originally upset about being disturbed by his subordinates late at night, immediately became gravely serious. He subconsciously rubbed his forehead and asked in a raspy voice:
“Bafang International’s Mr. Chu? Is that Chu Mo? How did he come under attack? How serious are his injuries? Have you found out who is behind this?”
“Yes, that Chu Mo. He wasn’t injured, but Miss Yang from the Yang family, Yang Duoer, is still in emergency care. According to eyewitnesses at the scene, the blood flowed like a river…
I’ve heard that people from Capital City have already rushed over during the night. The culprit hasn’t been found yet, but Mr. Chu’s detective agency is now fully mobilized. Mr. Su from the Tengwang Pavilion Grand Hotel seems to be the prime suspect!”
Upon hearing this, the bald man’s breathing grew noticeably heavier. He slightly squinted his eyes and said indifferently:
“What is Su Zhengxiong up to? He banded the thirteen major hotels at Lujiazui to resist Bafang International; I don’t oppose that. But this guy actually dared to have someone make a move in secret. Does he have the audacity of a bear and the guts of a leopard? If he wants to die, he shouldn’t drag our hotel into it!”
With the old man’s angry voice falling, after a moment, he coldly said:
“Contact Su Zhengxiong for me; I want to ask him what kind of game he’s playing…!”
With a market value of seventy-two billion, the chairman of Hua Country International Grand Hotel, Jing Tian, hadn’t even hung up the phone when the mobile phone on the desk suddenly vibrated.
This was a private number, known by very few. He ended the call with his subordinate and, after calming his emotions, gently pressed to answer.
“President Jing, sorry to disturb you so late; this is Chu Mo!”
The voice on the other end of the phone rang out as the old man with a somber expression took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice:
“President Chu, I just heard about your situation. I was completely unaware of this event. You’ve invited me to dine at the Emperor’s Pavilion tomorrow night, and I was indeed planning to have a thorough discussion with you then!
As for tonight’s event, our Hua Country International Grand Hotel was definitely not involved!”
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, then a faint voice came through!
“I believe in President Jing’s sincerity and that you planned to seriously discuss the acquisition of Hua Country International Grand Hotel with me. With a market value of seventy-two billion, I wouldn’t want you to suffer a loss, President Jing. Seventy-five billion, I hope that price satisfies you.
If there are no objections from you, I will have my lawyers draft the contract tomorrow. Alright, no more talk now; I’m on my way to the Tengwang Pavilion Grand Hotel, and I’ll have a good chat with Su Zhengxiong about tonight’s event.
President Jing, at a certain age, it’s time to rest properly! We’ll meet at the dinner tomorrow night!”
After the call ended, Jing Tian, the chairman of Hua Country International Grand Hotel, ran his hands over his bald forehead. Seventy-five billion, the offer was lower than what he had anticipated. Originally, he had planned to demand an exorbitant price amid the chaos.
But now, tonight’s events had disrupted his plans, leaving no room for bargaining.
Either he would side with Su Zhengxiong and clash with Bafang International to the end.
Or he would withdraw from this struggle that was sure to shake the entire Hua Country!
The elderly man vigorously rubbed his cheeks and suddenly sighed:
“Su Zhengxiong, this guy has made a foolish move,”
the elderly man said, seemingly having let go of something, he picked up the phone again and gave a direct order:
“Cancel all cooperation with Su Zhengxiong…”
…
In the Tengwang Pavilion Grand Hotel of the Magic Capital, as the leading Rolls-Royce Phantom gradually came to a halt, a string of over a dozen luxury cars stopped in a line. As Fang Lihu opened the rear door of the Phantom, Chu Mo, who had adjusted his collar, stepped out of the car.
Dozens of black-suited bodyguards immediately took up positions around them, alert and watchful. Chu Mo casually surveyed the two opposing crowds in front of him. Before he could even speak, a black-suited bodyguard approached him with brisk steps!
Chu Mo recognized this man: he should be an elder of the detective agency and Jiang Tao’s right-hand man. The muscular man quickly reached Chu Mo’s side and said in a low voice:
“Mr. Chu, Chairman Zhan and Director Jiang are both inside the building, Su Zhengxiong is also there, and moreover, the other party has brought in reinforcements, Chairman Jack Ma of Alibaba is also present!”
Chu Mo frowned slightly.
He glanced at the hundreds of people in the standoff; his side, the entire detective agency, had mobilized, with a total of 150 members present. The Fan family, known as the fifth family of the Magic Capital, had likewise summoned two to three hundred personnel. His own side’s numbers reached four to five hundred!
However, the opposition’s security and waitstaff were in full force, along with a group of ferocious-looking bodyguards, also numbering two to three hundred. It can be said if things truly broke out tonight, blood was bound to be shed.
Chu Mo nodded to the muscular man in front of him and said in a deep voice:
“Tell your men to restrain themselves; without my command, no one is to cause trouble!”
After the other party respectfully agreed, Chu Mo stepped forward and strode toward the hotel’s main entrance.
Upon seeing the big boss arrive, everyone from the detective agency voluntarily cleared a path, hundreds of people bowing their heads in unison.
The group of security guards on the opposite side obviously didn’t dare to mess around either. Seeing Chu Mo approaching with a group, everyone automatically made way, not daring to impede them in the slightest.
Fang Lihu led the way with six bodyguards over two meters tall, protecting Chu Mo in the very center. Wherever the group went, whether it was members of the detective agency or staff of the Tengwang Pavilion Hotel, they would automatically line up to either side. Once the group entered the hall, they were first greeted by a hearty burst of laughter from afar.
“Boss Chu, since we parted in Capital City, I didn’t expect that we’d meet again so soon!”
Jack Ma, the slim man known as Jack Ma of Alibaba, approached with a broad smile, causing Chu Mo’s eyes to flash with complexity.
With a net worth of 260 billion, ranked third on the Forbes list, Jack Ma is a figure even more famous than the richest man, Zhang Dahua.
In all of Hua Country, although when it comes to net worth, Jack Ma’s mere 260 billion is only on par with the Lin family, one of the Magic Capital’s four great families, and far from the trillion assets of the eight great families of Hua Country.
But in terms of influence, Jack Ma standing before him can be considered the pinnacle among all businessmen in Hua Country.
A month ago in the Chang’an Club of Capital City, Chu Mo had an in-depth conversation with Jack Ma. Though their relationship could not be called intimate, it was harmonious.
Previously, Chu Mo had even asked for Jack Ma’s company to look out for Bafang International, owing him a small favor in return.
And now, as he was about to make a move to eliminate the Su family of the Magic Capital, this top tycoon renowned throughout Hua Country stood on the opposing side.
As Jack Ma approached enthusiastically, Chu Mo glanced at Su Zhengxiong on the other side.
The man with narrow, triangular eyes was cold and haughty. His icy gaze was also fixed directly on Chu Mo, his expression solemn.
Chu Mo turned his attention to Jack Ma, who was reaching out both hands toward him!
This short-statured man, whose face could definitely not be called handsome, controlled a super conglomerate with a market value approaching 6 trillion.
He was a man with immense influence over the entire world.
Chu Mo extended his hand and firmly grasped the other’s.
