At this moment, several guests gathered in the restaurant. They were holding mobile phones and talking about it.

"Hey, Lao Wang, have you seen the news? 'Steve's Date' is going to hold its third luncheon in Shanghai. I'm really curious who the third guest will be?"

"Hey, who else can it be? Among the four major families in the Celestial Dynasty, this time it must be the Sima family!"

"'Promise with Steve'?" Li Rui captured this information keenly, "Yes, I can use the influence of 'Promise with Steve' to help Xiao Xiao get the order smoothly, so that I don't need to

I came forward in person."

In the name of going to the toilet, Li Rui called Fang Youyou and asked her to find a way for Steve to change his schedule, hold a "Steve's Date" in the imperial capital, and get the tickets for the banquet.

.

This "Steve's Date" is known as the most expensive lunch in the world. The protagonist of this banquet is Dwight Steve, known as the best investor in the world, the founder of "Black Fox Fund" and known as the "Investment King".

"God", whose net worth ranks among the top three in the world. Now he is 80 years old, but his thinking is still extremely fast. The original purpose of holding "Steve's Date" was to find outstanding talents around the world and become his own.

successor.

Since Steve started the "Steve Date" ten years ago, he has traveled to five continents. However, his lunch is not free, and the admission ticket alone is enough to scare away a large number of people.

Those who are eager to give it a try. In the past ten years, the ticket price of "Date with Steve" has increased from the original 250,000 to 35 million now.

Despite this, this ticket is still hard to get. If you want to buy a ticket, you even need to auction it. Therefore, this ticket is called the "golden ticket". Not only is it made of pure gold, but more importantly, it is made of pure gold.

Unparalleled business value. After all, there are too many people in this world who want to meet, have a meal, and sit down and chat with Steve, the "God of Investment". In particular, Steve is very interested in the topics he discussed during lunch.

No restrictions are set, and he promises to tell you everything he knows. If you dare to ask, he dares to answer. But there is only one condition: he will not disclose his next investment choice.

Among the bidders over the years, there is another entrepreneur who has won the bid for two consecutive years. He is the North American tycoon Tyson Wald. When he had lunch with Steve for the second time, he received an invitation from Steve.

An invitation to work on Plum Island, where the "Black Fox Fund" is located. It is a private island in the South Pacific, where the world's top elites gather. It is said that everyone who has been there is wealthy and can go to

Working there means that they will definitely be among the controllers of the future world economic situation.

Currently, Wald is responsible for managing the investment of more than 90 billion US dollars in assets under the "Black Fox Fund". He is considered to be one of the popular candidates who may succeed Steve.

The peak of life is accidentally created by a lunch.

Although the Imperial Capital is the capital of the Celestial Dynasty, its status is only reflected in politics. In terms of economic strength, the Imperial Capital cannot be compared with Shanghai, the "Central Capital".

The Celestial Dynasty had "five capitals", "Jiuzhou" and "36 counties", among which the "five capitals" were: the imperial capital Longcheng, the upper capital Fengjun, the middle capital Shanghai, the lower capital Yuezhong, and the Lindu Wujun. "Jiuzhou"

It is the highest administrative region in the Celestial Dynasty and governs "thirty-six counties (cities, cities)", namely: Zhongzhou, Youzhou, Liangzhou, Yunzhou, Qingzhou, Yizhou, Haizhou, Yongzhou, Shanzhou. "Five Capitals"

"Independent of "Jiuzhou" and under the direct jurisdiction of the Celestial Dynasty, it is the political, economic and cultural center of the Celestial Dynasty. It crushes the "Thirty-Six Counties (Cities, Cities)" in all aspects in terms of geographical area and economic strength.

Even the strength of Zhongdu and Shanghai is stronger than any of the "Kyuzhou".

Fengjun, Shangdu, was the political center of the Celestial Dynasty after the imperial capital. It was the political, economic and cultural center of the north, and the frontline headquarters for the Celestial Dynasty to resist external forces in the north. The direct purpose of establishing Shangdu was to establish a solid barrier for the imperial capital.

The capital city of Shanghai is located in the prosperous land in the southeast and is the most prosperous place in the empire. The capital city of Yuezhong is the cultural center with a long history and picturesque scenery. Lindu Wujun is a temporary capital used by the empire during the war.

The strength is inferior to the other four capitals.

Among the "Jiuzhou", Zhongzhou governs Shangjun, Jiangmen City, Gyeonggi City, and Yuncheng; Youzhou governs Beijun, Bingcheng, Xuecheng, and Lingxiao City; Liangzhou governs Xijun, Machinery City, Gongqingcheng, and Longshang; Yunzhou

It governs Junwang City, Yulan City, Tianxuan Territory, and Laifeng City; Qingzhou governs Ziyun City, Lane City, Fenglin City, and Lai City; Yizhou governs Sol City, Villa City, Ji City, and Ping City; Hai

The prefecture governs Dongjun, Shancheng, Yongcheng, and Tongxin City; Yongzhou governs Yonghe City, Zhouning City, Xiangcheng, and Kecheng; Nanzhou governs Nanjun, Minnan City, Wandao City, and Huangjin City.

Li Rui knew that it was too unrealistic to invite Steve to Jiangmen City. The only suitable place was the Imperial Capital. Jiangmen was adjacent to the Imperial Capital and the transportation was very convenient.

Thirty minutes later, Fang Youyou sent a text message: Everything is ready, Steve agreed to go to the Imperial Capital just to meet you, the legendary new head of the Shengshi Group.

When he saw the text message, Li Rui smiled knowingly and said to Xiao Xiao: "Honey, I already have a way to help you get the order!"

Xiao Xiao glanced at Li Rui and asked, "What can you do?"

"You'll find out soon."

Xiao Xiao looked at Li Rui doubtfully. Unexpectedly, only ten minutes had passed when he heard exclamations coming from outside the restaurant.

Xiao Xiao turned to look out the window and saw a helicopter slowly descending from the sky and parked steadily outside the restaurant.

A foreigner wearing a suit and sunglasses jumped out of the plane and walked straight to the restaurant.

Under everyone's strange gazes, he walked up to Li Rui and asked, "Are you Mr. Li Rui?"

Li Rui nodded.

"Congratulations, you have successfully drawn a special ticket to enter the Imperial City for the 'Promise with Steve'. Tomorrow at noon, a luncheon that will be recorded in the history of the Imperial City will be held in the Golden Hall of the Imperial Hotel."

"Ah? Oh my God, this poor man actually got a ticket to 'Date with Steve'?"

"Yeah, you're just lucky!"

Everyone was shocked and looked at Li Rui in disbelief.

"Thank you!" Li Rui took the ticket and everything was as planned.

"What?" Xiao Xiao looked at Li Rui in disbelief and took the ticket doubtfully.

"Is this the method you mentioned?"

"Yes!" Li Rui nodded.

This is a "golden ticket" made of pure gold. It is made from a gold brick that has been hammered into a piece of "gold paper" as thin as paper. It is inlaid with countless tiny diamonds. It is not so much a ticket as it is a luxurious work of art.

I saw this golden ticket clearly written: "Steve's Appointment" Imperial City Special, October 22, 11:30, Golden Hall of the Imperial Hotel. Please bring this ticket with you. It will be invalid after 30 minutes.

Xiao Xiao couldn't believe that this was actually a ticket for the real "Date with Steve".

This is the first time that "Steve's Date" has entered the imperial capital. Before this, "Steve's Date" had only been held twice in China. The first one was held in Shanghai, the "Zhongdu".

Wang Yijia, the head of the Wang family, bought the "golden ticket" for 32 million yuan and became the first Chinese entrepreneur to have lunch with Steve.

The second guest to be a guest of "Steve's Date" was Li Tianxiong, and the price of this banquet was the highest price in history - 35 million.

This time, "Steve's Appointment" came to the Imperial Capital for the first time, and it happened to happen within 24 hours of the Shengshi Group changing hands. This sent a strong signal - Steve might be here for the legendary Shengshi Group.

The new chairman has arrived.

If this were not the case, there would be many wealthy families in Shanghai, and Steve would at least hold a few luncheons there instead of suddenly arriving in the Imperial Capital. After all, the only family that could really stand out in the Imperial Capital was the Situ family.

In order to invite Steve, Li Rui was not only willing to pay an admission fee of 40 million, but all the expenses for this luncheon were paid by Shengshi Group, so Steve did not need to pay a penny.

However, what attracted Steve to accept the invitation was not the price offered by Li Rui. After all, this amount of money was just a series of inconspicuous numbers to him. What Steve valued was Li Rui, who was very

Want to see who this mysterious man is?

More importantly, with Steve's numerous contacts and cunning in the city, he has secretly realized that Li Rui wants to lead him into a well-arranged situation. What kind of person dares to have such courage to put himself in trouble?

As a chess piece? The desire to win that had been extinguished for many years was rekindled in his heart. For a moment, he seemed to smell the breath that he had been waiting for for many years - the breath of the strong.

"This..." Xiao Xiao couldn't believe it, but he couldn't help but believe it.

"Xiao Xiao, this is God helping us." Li Rui saw that Xiao Xiao had fallen into the trap, so he continued to tease, "Tomorrow morning, you go to Shengshi Group with the planning book, and I will accompany you. I don't believe it.

With this ticket in our hands, will Shengshi Group refuse to cooperate with us?"

Yes, the commercial value contained in this golden ticket cannot be measured in terms of money. The guests at every "Date with Steve" are already world-renowned business giants, and after every luncheon, they

miraculously ushered in a climax of career development, which is the "power" that every company dreams of.

"Is it really pie in the sky?" Xiao Xiao murmured to himself, "Maybe God took pity on me and gave me such a precious opportunity. I can't live up to God's care. I must win this

cooperation!”

Xiao Xiao nodded vigorously. She had completely believed in Li Rui and felt that this was an opportunity given to her by God. She would use this "golden ticket" to leverage the family's revival and regain its glory.

Early the next morning, Xiao Xiao came to Shengshi Group with Li Rui, bringing the cooperation plan he had prepared overnight.

Although he regained his confidence last night, looking at the hundred-story Shengshi Group Building, a feeling of nervousness surged into his heart, and Xiao Xiao suddenly felt unsure at all.

"Although I have a 'golden ticket,' will Shengshi Group really believe what I say? If they don't believe this is true, how should I explain it?"

Seeing that she was extremely worried, Li Rui tidied her hair with some distress: "Don't worry, just go ahead and talk, we will definitely succeed."

Xiao Xiao said helplessly: "I hope you can wait for me here."

After saying that, Xiao Xiao took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to walk into the door of Shengshi Group.

Li Rui watched behind her and took out his mobile phone to call Fang Youyou.

"Householder, people have already gone up, you should know how to do the rest!"

Fang Youyou said immediately: "Don't worry, Chairman, I know what to do."

...

On the other side, Xiao Xiao walked into the office building of Shengshi Group and waited for an appointment at the front desk.

After a while, a graceful female assistant came over and asked politely: "Are you Ms. Xiao Xiao? The landlord is waiting for you in the office. Please follow me."

Xiao Xiao nodded and thought to himself: "I was still waiting in line to make an appointment, so why did I just call myself in? Could it be that Fang Youmei knew that she was coming?"

Although he couldn't figure it out, Xiao Xiao also knew that the opportunity was rare and hurriedly followed him.

The female assistant took Xiao Xiao directly into Fang Youyou's office.

Seeing Xiao Xiao, Fang Youyou quickly sat up from his chair and greeted him respectfully: "Hello, Ms. Xiao, I am Fang Youyou, the vice chairman of Shengshi Group."

Xiao Xiao felt a little nervous when facing the famous strong woman in the imperial capital, and said respectfully: "Hello, landlord, I'm here to talk to you about the hotel project!"

With that said, she nervously handed over a piece of information and said: "House Manager, this is the relevant introduction and qualification documents of our Aoshi Group. Please take a look."

Fang Youmei smiled, took the document, glanced at it briefly, and said directly: "Ms. Xiao, I have read your information, and I think the Xiao family and our Shengshi Group can cooperate."

"What? Are you telling the truth?" Xiao Xiao couldn't believe it and muttered in his heart, "You agreed so quickly? How could it be so easy?"

Fang Youmei smiled and said: "Of course it is true. Although the Xiao family's own conditions do not meet Shengshi Group's cooperation standards, our chairman is very optimistic about Ms. Xiao and is willing to cooperate with you."

"Chairman?" Xiao Xiao exclaimed and asked, "Who is your chairman?"

Fang Youmei smiled calmly and said, "Our chairman is Mr. Li from the Li family in Shanghai."

"Master Li?"

Xiao Xiao frowned and said, "I don't seem to know this Mr. Li."

Fang Youmei nodded slightly. Li Rui had told her not to reveal her identity, so she could only reveal so much.

Except for Li Rui, Xiao Xiao really didn't know anyone else named Li, but she never thought that her husband, who was born as an orphan and was good-for-nothing, was the Mr. Li that the other party called him.

At this time, Fang Youmei said again: "Ms. Xiao, I saw that the intended cooperation share filled in your information is one billion?"

Xiao Xiao nodded hurriedly and asked uncertainly: "Is it too much?"

Fang Youmei smiled and said: "Not too much, not too much, but less."

Xiao Xiao was even more confused and asked hurriedly: "What do you mean?"

Fang Youmei smiled and said: "Our chairman has told me to increase our cooperation share to 2 billion."

While talking, Fang Youmei took out a contract and handed it to Xiao Xiao: "Look, the contract has been drawn up in advance. The total is two billion. If you think it's okay, we can sign it now."

"Ah? This..."

Xiao Xiao was really dumbfounded.

She never expected that Shengshi Group, which the Xiao family could not catch up to, would actually take the initiative to prepare a contract for her.

Moreover, the contract amount has doubled.
Chapter completed!
