Chapter 315: 311. The More You Know, the More Shocked You Are (Please subscribe, monthly tickets!)

It was not just Meng He and his wife who were shocked by the affairs of Galaxy Capital; Huang Lin and his wife were the same.

They also knew about this matter, only they had not received confirmation from Zhang Ran.

Just today, they received a piece of news, delivered to them by people from Galaxy Capital.

The content of the news surprised them, but they also had some psychological preparation.

The content of this news was that Fengli Group and Dahe Express were going to merge; although they were quite shocked by such news, it was far less shocking than some of their speculations brought about by the news sent by Galaxy Capital.

"When did Zhang Ran go to Hong Kong?" Cheng Mei asked, coming back to her senses.

Huang Lin shook his head and said, "I don't know either. After all, we were all busy with the company's expansion and operations at the time; who would have the spare time to pay attention to Zhang Ran's movements? Besides, we didn't dare to back then."

This was the truth; where Zhang Ran went was not something they could control, nor was it easy to inquire about.

"Don't worry about this for now, and perhaps we can seek some help when the time comes. For now, let's think about how to take this move from Zhang Ran," Huang Lin said.

"Is Zhang Ran determined to compete with us online?" Cheng Mei said.

"That should be the case. This is also the fastest and least labor-intensive method right now, but I truly didn't expect that Zhang Ran had actually laid out plans in the internet industry back then." As he spoke, Huang Lin sighed.

They also knew about the Internet Conference; although so much time had passed, the shock in their hearts still could not be erased.

Back then, Zhang Ran not only laid out plans in physical industries, but he didn't even let go of the internet industry, which didn't even have a shadow at the time.

What was even more terrifying was Zhang Ran's vision, or rather, his grasp of the future.

Some of the people Zhang Ran selected back then had basically all become big shots in the current internet industry.

Although there were failures, those who failed basically did not attend the Internet Conference, and some had even retired; however, even so, it was enough to be shocking.

"If Zhang Ran hadn't had that incident back then, I really don't know how far he could have gone. Thinking back, I even wanted to find an opportunity to get even; now that I think about it, if not for that incident, what would I have used to confront Zhang Ran?" As he spoke, Huang Lin could not help but laugh at himself.

Cheng Mei held her husband's hand and said softly, "Don't say these discouraging words. Perhaps even the heavens couldn't stand to see a person like Zhang Ran exist forever, which is why such a thing happened."

Huang Lin let out a long breath and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that easily discouraged. Haven't I been waiting for him for so many years? Don't worry, I'm fine."

Although he said that, Huang Lin was still somewhat distracted. How many more things was Zhang Ran hiding?

The more he knew, the less confident Huang Lin felt in his heart, and the more shocked he became!

"By the way, how are the contacts with those shareholders going? Don't let them backstab us later; if they don't want to get involved, they can take their money and leave now," Huang Lin said, changing the subject.

Cheng Mei said, "They are still behaving themselves for now and have no intention of backstabbing us, but if we remain at a disadvantage later, it will be hard to say."

"Talk to them again during this period; there must be no problems in the rear," Huang Lin said in a deep voice.

"Understood."

Just as these people were racking their brains over one of Zhang Ran's actions, Zhang Ran was leisurely having fun over at Ligou Village.

Zhang Sicheng and the other two had also returned; they all had their own things to do.

After staying for two days, Liu Lu and Zhang Xiaotao felt once again that their mother-son relationship was being tested, so they left without hesitation.

There was no help for it; almost every family with parents visiting was experiencing this test now.

As time went on, the children became more and more lively, and they played more and more wildly.

Previously, these parents from the city all thought that hitting children was bad, or rather, they were basically reluctant to even say a harsh word.

But after these days, they suddenly discovered that, in fact, hitting children was not entirely wrong.

Following the first child being disciplined by their parents, one could basically hear the crying of children being disciplined every day thereafter.

At first, some parents were worried, but as more and more parents took action, they found that these children cared less and less.

Just after being spanked, their own children could immediately go and play happily with other children, looking like they didn't care at all, let alone any psychological trauma—what was that thing anyway? Could it be eaten?

This left the parents both speechless and angry!

However, Zhang Xiaotao and Susu had not been hit; firstly, Zhang Ran did not care much about their playing around, and secondly, he could not bear to.

Now the Summer Camp activities had been going on for more than half a month, and there was about one week left until they ended.

Principal Su came over and said to Huo Zhiyuan, "President Huo, this is the address for this donation. Please take a look. If there are no issues, we can go see the situation together tomorrow."

Principal Su had already inspected it before, but this time the scale had grown, and some places were newly added.

Furthermore, she also hoped that Huo Zhiyuan could see it with her own eyes, or rather, supervise her.

Huo Zhiyuan did not refuse; she would never refuse such charity activities.

"Brother Zhang, why don't we go take a look together tomorrow? Consider it a way to relax," Huo Zhiyuan said.

Zhang Ran said, "Sure. By the way, I forgot to ask, Principal Su, do the children participate in such charity activities?"

Principal Su said, "The children do not participate. It's not that I don't want the children to participate in charity activities, but the clothing we donate each time is donated to very poor places.

It might be fine for us to go, but if the children go and the children in these recipient places see them, it might have a bad influence on them."

"Moreover, I am also worried that this will make the children from the city develop a sense of superiority."

Principal Su expressed her concerns; it seemed that the places she chose for the Summer Camp all had her considerations.

It could both train the children and not let the children develop negative influences, such as pride, arrogance, and so on.

Zhang Ran nodded and said, "Principal Su has considered everything very comprehensively; you have a kind heart."

This was also Zhang Ran's sincere exclamation; Principal Su had truly considered everything clearly, and such a kind heart was truly rare!

Principal Su said somewhat embarrassedly, "Mr. Zhang is too kind. What I have done is far less than what President Huo has done. I have only helped a very, very small portion of people, and it is only a very small matter, while President Huo has helped too many people; the number of children who have benefited over these years is countless."

Huo Zhiyuan smiled and said, "No, I only provide the money, but you have the true kind heart. You are nobler than I am!"
