Chapter 1074: 749 Sicily

Setting aside the abundant fame and fortune, the life of a star can perhaps be described as one of constant dislocation, spending the morning in one city and flying to another in the afternoon.

Take Pei Yunxi, for example.

At the press conference, she didn’t linger in Capital City and quickly returned to East Sea.

Hmm.

After all, having filmed abroad for such a long time, Jiang Chen could completely empathize with her homesickness.

"General Jiang, this is the initial platform establishment plan we’ve made. Please have a look."

The power of money, most of the time, is omnipotent.

After the decision-makers approved, the Great Wall delivery service department was immediately established and preparations began in earnest.

The business war is a race against time.

Although Jiang Chen was used to being a "hands-off manager," this time was different. As the driving force and helmsman of this commercial battle, he took full responsibility.

"Let me see."

Jiang Chen took the proposal, "You go ahead with other tasks."

Finally putting the shareholders’ office to use, Jiang Chen sat alone and reviewed the documents carefully.

He had to admit, the employees at Great Wall were indeed capable and technically proficient, as there weren’t many issues with the initial planning scheme he received.

Perhaps he was scrutinizing too carefully that he didn’t even notice someone entering the office until they reached his desk when he finally heard footsteps and looked up.

"It’s frightful, nearly scared me to death."

He smiled.

"You didn’t hear me knocking."

Lan Peizhi casually pulled out a chair and sat down, "How much money are you planning to invest?"

Jiang Chen didn’t answer but pushed the document he was holding across the table, "This is the plan they’ve just made."

Lan Peizhi picked it up and flipped through it briefly.

"One hundred and twenty billion a year, can you handle that?"

"Even if we can’t handle it, we must, since the promise has already been made."

Jiang Chen smiled, his expression not too grim.

"Although the figure isn’t small, it’s just the initial phase that requires burning through money, after all, the initial stage is the most critical to capture the market, how can we do it without cutting some losses?"

"This initial phase isn’t a matter of one or two days, and it might not even be one or two years."

Lan Peizhi added, rather realistically.

"It’s not that exaggerated. In the end, we can see the results in just one or two years."

"The kangaroo currently has a market value of a trillion."

Lan Peizhi reminded as a friend.

"I know. I’m not trying to take it down all at once; that’s not realistic. As long as we can keep the kangaroo grounded, prevent it from jumping higher and higher, it would be a victory."

Lan Peizhi flipped through the proposal again, then set it aside.

"First the Hippo, then the Kangaroo, Cao Jinse asked if you rarely went to the zoo as a child."

Jiang Chen smiled wryly, his look meaningful as he glanced at Blood Guanyin who was as audacious as him.

"Actually, aside from school trips, I really haven’t been to the zoo many times. I guess it’s the same for you, right?"

"By the way, I’ve met Bian Zaide."

"He is purely a businessman."

Lan Peizhi commented, leaving the rest unsaid.

As a businessman, he naturally abides by the rules of the marketplace, but some people are different.

Jiang Chen didn’t know if he understood, and muttered to himself: "There’s a line in a movie that says ordinary people can endure humiliation and accept modest living for survival, but they can’t be crushed underfoot like insects."

Jiang Chen leaned back in his chair, "Some people already have enough, riches and honor beyond their dreams, why do they still need to keep pressing down?"

This question, in the past and now, he couldn’t understand.

Maybe someday in the future he might.

"Liu Li never told you, greed, anger, ignorance, hatred, love, and evil desires are the roots of human nature."

"Isn’t that a theory from the Buddhist Sect?"

"Who told you that living in Taoist temples means one only practices Taoism?"

Jiang Chen laughed.

Indeed.

That old immortal, he certainly isn’t a narrow-minded person.

He looked out the window.

The weather was great.

Clear skies as far as the eye could see.

"My childhood friend should have already set off."

Lan Peizhi quietly remained silent.

Southern Europe.

Italy, which Ding He could not reach.

It wasn’t just setting off; Fang Qing had landed in the legendary Sicily, along with her parents.

A historically significant art film made this island world-famous.

The Commercial Union Bank, being a top-ranked major bank, deployed its ample funds magnanimously, choosing such a renowned place for the first stop of the trip.

Unlike some events that were all sizzle and no steak - just mere spectacles.

That movie, the young people should have all seen, even consider it a kind of educational enlightenment, but for the generation of Fang Weiguo and his wife of course it was different, let alone the movie, they didn’t even know the city at all.

However, with their high-talented daughter Fang Qing, while en route from the airport, she educated her parents on the local customs.

"I know about Italy. It once swept the world with its powerful navy."

The first time stepping beyond his country’s borders, Fang Weiguo was moved, truly understanding that seeing and experiencing overseas firsthand was something one could never comprehend sitting at home.

"Dad, I think you might be talking about Portugal or Spain."

"Don’t say nonsense if you don’t know, especially abroad, don’t embarrass our country."

Pan Hui immediately scolded her husband, but the smile in her eyes was clear, evidently cherishing the enormous prize that fell from the sky and the opportunity for a family trip.

She was nearly fifty, and this might be the only trip abroad in her lifetime.

"Is it Portugal? Then I remembered wrong."
