Super Island Tycoon

"Hmm." Chang Tengyun looked at Zhang Manlin's attitude and reaction, and immediately nodded with some satisfaction. She was initially a bit uneasy about this Zhang Manlin. Although her own son was the true BOSS of the company, it was Zhang Manlin who controlled everything in the company and was the real person in charge. As both the CEO and president, the power in her hands was enormous, and there was a possibility of some trouble arising, like her being defiant towards Jiang Cheng, thinking that she was the real owner of the company. Such a possibility was not out of the question!

However, Zhang Manlin's current attitude indicated that she had no such thoughts.

This naturally made Lv Tengyun very pleased.

Though Lv Tengyun was an internationally renowned medical professor, and logically speaking, she shouldn't understand much about human relations, her husband, Jiang Cheng's father, held a company ranked among Huaxia's top five hundred, soon to be among the world's top five hundred. She was aware of these things.

Jiang Cheng was not too interested in the mutual probing between the two. He began to examine the hotel's layout. As the best hotel in the entire Luocheng, it had already closed for rectifications a few days prior, all in preparation for today's celebration banquet.

At this moment, the décor and arrangement were naturally luxurious yet restrained.

Simply put, while grand and luxurious, it wasn't the kind of exaggerated ostentatiousness typical of upstarts, but rather, it was full of substance. The number of attendees for this celebration wasn't large, only about a hundred people, but each one of them was a business giant.

Jiang Cheng's father, among these people, was merely a newly risen formidable power. However, because of his son Jiang Cheng, he was also one of the main figures, approached and flattered by countless people trying to build a good relationship.

As time passed, more and more influential figures continued to arrive. Jiang Cheng even saw Major General Xiang Dong, whom he had met once before, also coming to the venue.

"It's really surprising to see you here?" Jiang Cheng walked up to Major General Xiang Dong and said with a smile.

"Why can't I come?" Major General Xiang Dong looked at Jiang Cheng, smilingly saying, "What, am I not welcome?"

"How could that be? If you can come, I'd of course be very welcome." Jiang Cheng shook his head and replied with a smile.

Major General Xiang Dong was one of the prominent figures in Beijing, with a deep background and numerous connections in both military and official circles, his future potentials were limitless.

In Huaxia, those who truly hold the nation's lifeline and power can never be mere businessmen.

Instead, it's the group behind Major General Xiang Dong—hence, when the group of wealthy magnates, industry leaders on-site saw Major General Xiang Dong, they couldn't help but be taken aback.

Of course, they recognized Major General Xiang Dong!

As one of the top red figures, his future is simply immeasurable and of a completely different level from them. They didn't expect him to show up here—many sensed a different atmosphere, which was enough to show how the upper echelon viewed Jiang Cheng! Their expressions changed involuntarily!

With Jiang Cheng and Major General Xiang Dong's conversation, the surroundings instantly became much quieter. Many were sneaking a look, noticing the smiling conversation between Major General Xiang Dong and Jiang Cheng, indicating they were not meeting for the first time but had considerable interactions before...

Thinking about it, the important figures who were at first somewhat scheming now couldn't help but ponder several times. This situation, they couldn't not ponder!

The attention these people paid was not concealed, but neither Major General Xiang Dong nor Jiang Cheng paid much mind to such attention ~.

Both Jiang Cheng and Major General Xiang Dong were the types who would draw attention anytime and were completely accustomed to such focus, even directly choosing to ignore it.

Major General Xiang Dong said with a smile, "Isn't that right—ever since we parted last time, I've been missing you, brother!"

This statement clearly had a hint of flattery, which secretly surprised the surrounding corporate executives and magnates!

During this time, could it be that there's some hidden transaction?!!

The secret transactions involving Jiang Cheng and Major General Xiang Dong were naturally impossible to spread, and these corporate executives, whether now or in the future, were unlikely to know even a bit—in fact, sometimes, knowing too much isn't a good thing, often it's better to be wisely unaware.

For Major General Xiang Dong, ever since the last transaction with Jiang Cheng where he obtained the new graphene technology, he had gained unimaginable benefits. With further understanding over the subsequent period, he realized the importance of Jiang Cheng's improved graphene technology! It was already immensely powerful and critical in his eyes, but it turned out to be far beyond his imagination, many times over.

And Jiang Cheng's importance was naturally self-evident—he finally understood what it meant for someone to be a so-called strategic-level talent.

Strategic-level!

Although somewhat reluctant to admit, in terms of the attitude from above, it was evident that Jiang Cheng was far more important than him.... Major General Xiang Dong was no child; knowing such a situation, it was impossible for him to be jealous of Jiang Cheng but rather to find ways to establish a good relationship with Jiang Cheng, and his attitude couldn't be better.

This time, upon receiving Jiang Cheng's invitation, he came to attend Jiang Cheng's celebration banquet without hesitation, having nothing to do with the upper echelons' intentions but more out of his own personal willingness.

Yet clearly, the surrounding corporate executives misunderstood something—after all, someone of Major General Xiang Dong's status, regardless of where he went or what he did, represented not just himself.

While talking with Major General Xiang Dong, Jiang Cheng did not notice a girl not far away, her eyes shining as she looked at him.

Those who could come to today's celebration were allowed to bring one or two protégés to broaden their horizons. This girl was one of them; her background was not simple. She had attended Jiang Cheng's Transparent Phone launch event and was well-versed in all of Jiang Cheng's achievements, appearing to be an outright devoted fan.

She was very attractive, and in terms of looks, she was not inferior to Jiang Cheng's family members Su Qianqian and Guan Xiaofei, and even had a more noble aura, having come from a well-educated prestigious family and being admitted to Tsinghua University—easily garnering much fame online by casually starting a live stream.

No matter where she stood, such a person would always be a point of focus, even here—those young talents also brought along by their seniors couldn't help but want to approach her after seeing her, trying to strike up a connection.

Their seniors also encouraged them to do so, as those who had the opportunity to come here were no ordinary individuals, and being able to establish more connections was something they'd gladly welcome.
