True tycoons go for yachts and airplanes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because with these two things, you can’t really afford to play without assets in the billions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, the annual maintenance costs alone are in the millions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, how much did you buy this yacht for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen said, \"Market estimate is 4.5 billion now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"4.5 billion? Ye Chen, are you insane?\" Su Wanyi was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You know, the entire Yashi Group isn’t worth 4.5 billion, and Ye Chen actually bought a 4.5 billion yacht.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen laughed, \"Well, I do feel it’s a bit pricey.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard the world’s most expensive yacht is the ’History Supreme,’ valued at exactly 4.5 billion. Could it be that you bought it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen nodded, \"Haha, you guessed right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh my god, I’ve always dreamed of one day setting sail on that yacht. Hurry, I want to see it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wanyi knew that Ye Chen’s wealth should already place him among the billionaires.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>4.5 billion really is nothing to Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, Ye Chen has mentioned several times about letting her hand over the company to his subordinates, but Su Wanyi always felt that a woman must have her own career.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t want to be like other girls, staying at home every day, just being a housewife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yachts hold great allure for women, and Su Wanyi is no exception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The harbor wasn’t far from Modu, and Ye Chen drove for three hours to reach their destination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they arrived at the dock, there were many yachts parked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This dock was a gathering place for the second-generation rich.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, those who could afford yachts were almost all on the list of wealthy individuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, with the rise of yachts in recent years, even more wealthy people are buying yachts, because without a yacht or private airplane, you almost can’t call yourself a tycoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the dock, there were many young people wearing international brands gathered together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside these youngsters, many curvaceous beauties in bikinis gathered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dock’s parking lot, it was filled exclusively with sports cars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen’s Jili Car was extremely conspicuous among these luxury cars worth tens of millions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who came here were all part of Jiangnan’s circle of second-generation rich.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of people drinking champagne looked curiously as a Jili Car parked in the lot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn, what’s going on? Who’s so bold to drive a Jili Car here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be someone from the dock staff?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One young man brightened up at the sight of Su Wanyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wanyi, why are you here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the young man saw Su Wanyi holding Ye Chen’s arm, he frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wanyi, who is this person? Why are you so close to him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wanyi looked at the young man and frowned, \"What’s wrong with me holding my boyfriend’s arm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You?\" The young man frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wanyi, can’t you see that I’ve always liked you? I send you flowers every day and even take care of your business. Don’t you know my intentions?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Wanyi responded indifferently, \"Oh, those flowers went straight to the trash, and I never said you had to take care of my business. Didn’t your company also make a lot of profit? What care are you talking about?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man frowned again and fixed his gaze on Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man driving a Jili Car—what prospects could he have? The young man even thought Ye Chen was just a pretty boy.\u003C\u002Fp>",1272,"2026-06-03T08:12:36.329Z","2026-06-03T08:12:40.945Z",1,"novelbin.me","6eef1acae69bce1ed0d15f0d615b2327adf495fa3229e70e628a2a1668f7c30b","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-428","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-426",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
