Chapter 18: Not Even 100 million USD? Sorry, But You Don’t Have The Qualifications To Join The Group
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Hathaway and Catherine had known each other for many years.
Naturally, Hathaway knew that this close friend of hers was very obsessed with computer technology and was famous in the hacker world.
If this really happened, it was already very nice that Catherine could find time to accompany her to buy a car.
Soon, Hathaway put down her phone and leaned in front of the computer. “What’s wrong with you? Were you swindled? Did you really send out 100,000 dollars?”
“Also, who would be so stupid as to send out hundreds of thousands of dollars in red envelopes!”
“Hmph! and Bill Gates? Musk? Soros? This is obviously a group of Swindlers!”
Hathaway kindly reminded Catherine, “There are many swindlers on the internet now, and their methods are very clever. Be careful not to get swindled!”
If it was in the past, Catherine would definitely refute Hathaway without hesitation. With her hacking skills, who could deceive her?!
But, from now on, she no longer thought so.
Because, the chat group leader’s computer skills were obviously many levels higher than hers.
She was simply unable to break into the Super Rich Chat Group. The difficulty was simply more difficult than breaking into the National Bank.
Catherine thought about it seriously.
“I’ll withdraw the money now, and you’ll know if I lied to you!”
In the face of a huge surprise, all women were the same.
Soon, Catherine chose to withdraw the money.
Then, she checked the balance through text messages.
The next moment, the two women were stunned.
A minute later, Catherine suddenly cursed, “F * ck!”
“I really snatched 1.3 million US dollars!”
Catherine’s charming eyes stared at the chat group’s dialog box as she watched the group leader and Bill Gates joking around.
“Could it be… they really are the richest people?”
Hathaway also said in surprise: “I’m afraid, it’s true!”
“If it weren’t for Bill Gates and the others, who would give out red packets like this?! Look! None of the wealthiest people snatched other people’s red packets!”
Millions of dollars!
Although Catherine had hundreds of millions of assets, most of them were given by her family. She had never earned so much money before.
Even if it was millions of dollars, she had never earned it before.
In her impression, the biggest deal was last year, which was 860,000 dollars.
She looked at Charles’ portrait suspiciously and muttered, “Who is this group leader who uses Optimus Prime as his portrait?!”
“Why is Bill Gates, Soros, and Musk so polite to him?”
“Could he be a big shot in the political world?”
Hathaway was also shocked.
“If only it was really them!”
Hathaway seemed to have thought of something and waved her hands. “Catherine, quickly pull me into the group!”
“I want to cooperate with them. I want to film a Hollywood blockbuster that they invested in!”
Hathaway and Catherine’s family background were similar. They had been good friends for a long time.
However, Catherine chose to major in computer science, while Hathaway became an actress because of her gorgeous appearance.
Now, Hathaway’s film career was finally on the right track, but they were still small roles. She wanted to be the female lead!
Unfortunately, Hollywood wasn’t a place for ordinary people. If they didn’t give their bodies to the director and only relied on their excellent acting skills, it would still be very difficult.
This was the case for Hathaway.
She was unwilling to accept the industry’s unspoken rules.
She could only wait for an opportunity for a long time.
Now, there was such a Super Rich Chat Group. If she could become friends with the richest people, she would definitely have an opportunity in the future.
After working in Hollywood for two to three years, Hathaway understood the importance of resources more than anyone else, and the resources were in the hands of these rich people.
Hathaway had absolute confidence in her acting skills, but now she just lacked an opportunity.
Relying on small roles limited the potential for future development. At most, she could only become a B-list star.
If she wanted to become an A-list star, she had to have a good script and a good role.
If she could have a good relationship with a few rich people in the group, would she be afraid of not having a script to act in in the future?
The competition in the entertainment industry was very fierce. If she missed this opportunity, she would definitely regret it in the future.
Hathaway made a prompt decision.
She asked her best friend to pull her into the Super Rich Chat Group.
Seeing Hathaway acting so dramatic, Catherine said angrily, “I’m not the group leader, so how can I pull you in?!”
Hathaway said anxiously, “You can invite your friends to join the group!”
Catherine was a little embarrassed.
“I’ll give you the group number! You can apply for it yourself! I really don’t have the authority to recruit people!”
Hathaway quickly took out her phone, opened ICQ, and looked for the number of the Super Rich Chat Group.
But, in the next second, she was stunned.
Because the result of the search was actually empty.
Hathaway thought that she had entered the wrong number, or Catherine said the wrong number, but after several checks, it was still empty!
The two looked at each other.
Hathaway asked in a daze, “What’s going on?”
Feeling a bit helpless, Catherine shook her head.
“I don’t know, this group is very strange. After entering, you have to pay 100 million US dollars to exit!”
“Downloading the files in the group files costs money; it starts at 100 thousand US dollars, and there’s a very strange group store!”
“Forget it, I’ll go ask the group leader!”
Soon, Catherine was disappointed.
She said to Hathaway: “The group leader just said that only people with a net worth of 100 million US dollars are qualified to enter the group!”
As a veteran hacker expert, Catherine was also very sensitive to numbers.
She secretly calculated for a moment, and confirming one thing, she suddenly took a deep breath.
Was it really like that?
Catherine looked at Hathaway with a bitter smile, “You can’t join.”
Hathaway asked curiously, “Why can’t I join the group?”
Catherine pushed the computer slightly, “Did you see the name of this chat group?”
“This is a Super Rich Chat Group!”
“I have a net worth of about 100 million US dollars now, and I’m only the lowest one-star member.”
“Did you see Bill Gates and the others? They are already silver members! This is completely in line with the name of the group! Obviously, if you want to join this group, you have to have at least 100 million US dollars worth of assets!”
“What about you? You are now only worth a little more than 80 million US dollars! You are still a distance away from 100 million US dollars!”
“So, you aren’t qualified to join the group!”
Hathaway’s eyes widened.
“What? How is that possible! Just adding a group would cost 100 million USD?”
2,000 USD might not be much for a top Hollywood actor. It might just be one or two movies.

But for Hathaway, it was very difficult to complete.
Hathaway was still unwilling.
“By the way, how does the group leader know that you have 100 million US dollars?”
