Chapter 626: Ten Billion Investment

Chen Yang brought Chu Ning to his bedroom. After having an intimate conversation, he then returned to the main topic.

"Chu Ning, forget about the electronics factory! Dongjiang Electronics Co., Ltd. may not be able to develop; before long, they will regret today's decision."

"No, you must definitely do this. Only with comparison comes harm; only by doing better than Dongjiang Electronics will those who bullied you be punished."

"You're overthinking. The governor supports her; how could she possibly be punished?"

"Hehe, superiors care about results. If Governor Liu finds that Dongjiang Electronics' development falls short of expectations, will he still trust Director Huo?"

Chen Yang said hesitantly: "I already gave the governor a guarantee that I have no interest in the electronics factory. If I secretly go to Goat City to do something, he will settle accounts afterward just the same. Perhaps my guilt would be even greater than Director Huo's."

Chu Ning let out a soft hum and said: "Let him be angry. At worst, you move the company to Goat City."

Chen Yang didn't respond. If he really moved to Goat City, his rear in Dongjiangsheng would be completely cut off.

Seeing Chen Yang silent, Chu Ning smiled and asked: "Are you afraid of my family?"

"'It has nothing to do with your family...' Chen Yang didn't want to explain further, directly making an excuse: 'I just don't want to wear myself out.'"

Chu Ning thought for a moment and said: "How about this: I'll get you a plot of land. You pay first, and whenever you're interested again, you can go ahead and start construction."

Chen Yang felt embarrassed to refuse Chu Ning's goodwill, so he could only nod in agreement.

Land in Goat City is now in high demand; even if you don't build an electronics factory, other investments won't lose money.

After finishing their talk, Chu Ning went to the bathroom to take a shower. Chen Yang couldn't resist the temptation and ran in again to be lovey-dovey with her for a while.

He discovered that such things between men and women really are easy to become addicted to.

Before, he clearly disliked Chu Ning, but after being intimate, he constantly thought of her.

And Chu Ning's attitude toward him had also become noticeably gentler than before.

However, Chen Yang still feared deep down that the Chu family would learn the truth.

Although his wealth ranks first domestically, in the face of absolute power he remains a humble existence.

Three days later, Chen Yang flew to Deep City, then had Xiao Jian drive him to Goat City to meet up with Luosen.

After not seeing each other for a while, Luosen's skin had gotten a bit darker, suggesting he hadn't been slacking at the construction site.

"'Chen Yang, don't you feel that Chu Ning has changed a lot recently?'"

Chen Yang looked at Luosen with a guilty expression and carefully asked: "What's wrong with her?"

Luosen said puzzled: "When she used to mention you to me, she'd curse harshly. But in recent phone calls, your name came without any suffix, which I found awkward."

Chen Yang gave an embarrassed laugh. "Cough... cough, maybe it's because I donated three billion to the Common People's Foundation, which changed her previous stereotype."

"'I see!' Luosen was actually just looking for a topic to test Chen Yang. Although he and Chu Ning were like fire and water in Goat City, being unmarried man and woman, spending much time together inevitably breeds feelings."

A handsome, wealthy man like Chen Yang most easily attracts women's attention. Chu Ning has only experienced a brief romance; facing a man superior to her ex-boyfriend, could she remain unmoved?

Not only Luosen disbelieves, but Chu Ning's older brother also doesn't believe.

But without evidence, they can only wait and see for now.

Since they found no clues from Chen Yang, Luosen could only change the subject.

He feigned a sigh: "I've never seen three billion in my lifetime; you say donate and you just donate it. Really generous!"

Chen Yang said modestly: "The real estate industry is booming now; if you just do a few more big projects, you'll eventually earn three billion."

Luosen heard this and gave a wry smile: "Chen Yang, you think anyone can make a hundred million a day like you!"

Seeing his disbelief, Chen Yang said seriously: "Domestic real estate is developing extremely rapidly. As a first-tier city, Goat City definitely offers the most opportunities. If you just secure a few good plots, making three billion really isn't hard."

Luosen sighed: "In Goat City, even decent spots are incredibly expensive. A small company like mine with limited funds has no chance to snag them. Speaking of which, following you in trading US stocks is more promising. Those IS Company shares earned me two billion—more than I'd make from several years of engineering profits."

Chen Yang noticed Luosen also had considerable guts. He actually bought back IS Company shares again without consulting him, and made a big profit.

With such a personality, he shouldn't be doing so poorly in Goat City, theoretically.

"'Old Luo, how about I invest ten billion in you? Let's develop two good plots in the urban area and go big.'"

Luosen looked at Chen Yang, excited: "Older brother, you're not joking with me, are you?"

Chen Yang said sincerely: "I'm not joking; I'm genuinely optimistic about Goat City's real estate."

Luosen's expression instantly turned grave; he seriously asked Chen Yang: "Older brother, real estate returns aren't low, but the risk is also high. Aren't you afraid I'll lose this money?"

Chen Yang smiled calmly: "I've already donated three billion. Do I still care about another ten billion? Besides, Goat City is full of gold; if you could still lose ten billion, that would make you a notable figure."

Luosen gave an embarrassed laugh. With Chen Yang's funding, he lacks neither background nor money. If he could still lose it, he could really find a block of tofu to bury himself in.

"'Older brother, rest assured, I guarantee your investment will at least double.'"

Chen Yang shook his head, dissatisfied: "Old Luo, doubling isn't enough; your vision should be bigger."

Luosen gritted his teeth: "Then let's aim for tenfold! By then you'll take a hundred billion, I'll take thirty billion—just right to fulfill my dream."

What Chen Yang wanted was Luosen's confidence. A leader without ambition makes it hard for an enterprise to grow big and strong.

Next, accompanied by Luosen, he inspected the industrial land Chu Ning had found for him. Located near a subway entrance under construction in Panyu District, the total area is twenty thousand square meters.

If it were just for building an electronics factory, this area would be completely sufficient.

However, considering the location's proximity to the subway entrance, it's more suitable for residential settlement. Chen Yang also negotiated with the local government and bought an additional twenty-thousand-square-meter plot for commercial-residential use nearby.

To avoid attracting attention from Dongjiangsheng, Chen Yang and Luosen discussed and decided to first develop a commercial-residential community, then build factories later depending on the situation.

Moreover, Chen Yang does not intend to name this electronics factory under the "Common People" trademark.
