All the billionaires stared at Wang Chao with eyes gleaming, as if they were looking at a priceless treasure.
Wang Chao's performance today was truly extraordinary!
While Pei Buji played with everyone present, causing them to worry and feel extreme fear, Wang Chao easily manipulated Pei Buji and killed the ruthlessly vicious Yun Feihe with a single strike. He even severed the hands of the nearly Heavenly King-level Pei Buji!
Moreover, Wang Chao brought along so many experts and ambushed and killed all the mercenaries from the Blood Demon Mercenary Corps.
His strength was undoubtedly that of a Heavenly King-level expert or even higher!
Most importantly, with his acupuncture skills, Wang Chao was able to save the severely injured Pei Buji and used his miraculous acupuncture techniques to save many other people.
He was unquestionably a top-tier expert who mastered both medicine and martial arts!
If they could win over such a Heavenly King, it would be like having a valuable asset in their company. They would be much more at ease.
"I offer 10 billion US dollars!"
At this moment, a middle-aged man in his fifties, wearing a checkered suit with salt-and-pepper hair, walked forward. He gazed at Wang Chao intently and said, "Mr. Wang, my name is Gates, and I'm pleased to meet you."
"I'm willing to offer 10 billion US dollars to have you join my company as a security consultant for four years. I will pay the entire sum upfront!"
"Is that acceptable?"
Upon hearing Gates' words, everyone present gasped in disbelief.
10 billion US dollars!
In the currency of the Dragon Nation, that would be nearly 70 billion in assets!
Most importantly, with just four years of work, one could achieve financial freedom. This deal was incredibly lucrative!
In an instant, many billionaires with assets exceeding billions of dollars looked at Wang Chao with eyes filled with envy and jealousy, wishing they could replace him.
"Damn it, Gates is really loaded. We can't compete with that."
"Damn, it's great to be rich and powerful."
"This Gates guy is so generous."
"Need you even ask? We're living in the age of technology, the combination of the internet and technology is the way to make money. Gates' company started in the internet industry, and his wealth has reached unimaginable levels."
And in that instant, the billionaires with assets in the hundreds of billions fell silent.
Their offer of 2 billion US dollars was originally meant to secure Wang Chao's services for 10 years.
But Gates' offer had already reached one-tenth of the assets of many of these billionaires, and they couldn't compete with that.
Furthermore, although they were billionaires, most of their wealth was tied up in real estate and stocks. They couldn't readily come up with billions of dollars in cash.
Gates' immense liquidity left them speechless, filled with envy and jealousy.
"10 billion US dollars?" Even Shen Bing could not help but be shocked.
Such a price made her, as the boss, feel a strong temptation.
Gates spoke sincerely, "Mr. Wang, I'm grateful that you saved my life. The 10 billion US dollars is just my offer to you. If you feel it's not enough, we can continue negotiating, and I can increase the price."
Once again, silence fell over the crowd, and everyone's gaze towards Wang Chao and Gates was filled with envy and jealousy.
Shen Siquan, Zhou Xinghe, and Scarlett were also dumbfounded.
In their view, 10 billion US dollars was already an astronomical sum.
But then Gates mentioned the possibility of increasing the offer!
Damn!
Money truly allows one to do whatever they want!
Not to mention Wang Chao, even someone like Shen Siquan, a royal princess, was tempted.
"Mr. Wang, I genuinely have the intention to cooperate with you," Gates uttered earnestly to Wang Chao.
"Gates, how about you hire me? My strength is also approaching the Heavenly King level. I do not need much; you can pay me 300 million US dollars for a year," Zhou Xinghe approached, full of excitement.
Gates looked at Zhou Xinghe and smiled before saying seriously, "If Mr. Zhou is also interested in joining my company, I can offer you 500 million US dollars."
He had witnessed Zhou Xinghe's impressive display of power earlier, killing many experts. His strength was formidable.
If he could hire Zhou Xinghe as well, and have him and Wang Chao work together, the security of his company would undoubtedly be at the world's top level.
10.5 billion US dollars per year was not too much!
Zhou Xinghe had originally been joking, but upon hearing Gates' words, his expression changed. "Gates, are you serious?"
"I absolutely am!" Gates confirmed.
Zhou Xinghe's expression changed once again, and he struggled to swallow his saliva.
500 million US dollars for a year!
If he worked for a year, he would be worry-free for the rest of his life.
However, he did not immediately accept the offer but instead looked at Wang Chao.
Wherever the Night Emperor went, he would follow.
Gates also noticed that Zhou Xinghe was following Wang Chao's lead, so he quickly turned his gaze back to Wang Chao, looking earnestly at him. "Mr. Wang, I..."
Wang Chao raised his hand to stop Gates from continuing, and calmly said, "Mr. Gates, I appreciate your recognition, but I currently have no plans to go abroad."
With these words, he effectively declined Gates' invitation.
Gates looked disappointed, but he still politely handed his business card to Wang Chao and said, "Mr. Wang, my doors will always be open to you."
"If one day you change your mind, I'll still warmly welcome your arrival."
Wang Chao accepted the business card, smiled, and replied, "Thank you, but I won't be going abroad anytime soon."
"If you have any security needs, you can contact her. She's an great bodyguard."
With that, he flicked his fingers and sent the business card to Scarlett, who was standing nearby.
Scarlett remained expressionless as she received the card, then she took out her own business card and threw it out.
The business card flew like lightning, sharp as a knife, piercing Gates' clothes but not harming his skin.
Her control over the force behind that throw was truly remarkable!
Gates' expression changed, realizing that Scarlett was not to be underestimated. He picked up the card, nodded respectfully at Scarlett, and then carefully put the card away.
Scarlett glared coldly at Wang Chao. "Next time, do not strengthen me to others!"
After saying that, she walked over, picked up the bomb she had thrown on the ground earlier, and completely destroyed the remote control. She then quickly withdrew to defuse the other bombs.
Previously, she had only disarmed one bomb as part of the act, throwing it to deceive Pei Buji and prevent him from self-destructing.
Now that Pei Buji was dead, the bombs still needed to be dismantled.
"Mr. Wang, are you really not considering it?" Gates asked, unwilling to give up.
Wang Chao remained calm and replied, "Mr. Gates, I'm truly sorry, but I have reasons that force me to stay in Dragom Kingdom."
With that, he did not give Gates any opportunity to persuade him further and returned to Shen Bing's side, saying, "The matter is resolved, let's go."
Shen Bing looked at Wang Chao's face and thought about what he had just said.
Wang Chao had rejected a sky-high reward of 10 billion US dollars and had reasons that forced him to stay in Dragom Kingdom. Could it be her?
At this thought, her face turned red, and her heart raced like a startled deer. It was the first time in her life that she felt the impulse to offer herself to a man.
