High School Belle Fell in Love with Me

Chapter 662: Chapter 281: Role Reversal (Part 2)

Song Qihua thought for a while and gritted his teeth, saying, "Okay, but let’s put off the transfer fee for now. I can’t come up with that much money at the moment. By next June, I’ll definitely have it together."

"No problem."

Li Yang had already gotten two meals from the guy and intended to agree anyway.

"Thanks a lot!"

...

Song Qihua returned to the hotel, and a girl came over, pitifully saying, "Brother, I’m hungry..."

"Come on, come on, I’ll take you out to eat. I’ve been a bit busy these days, but I just met your idol Li Yang and asked him to add you on WeChat."

The girl’s grievances vanished instantly.

"Really, really? Brother, I love you so much!"

Song Qihua: "..."

This WeChat was something he got with over 20 million.

Song Qihua also found it odd; his sister was only sixteen years old. Where did she hear about the name Li Yang?

She also said that many classmates in her class consider Li Yang an idol.

When did Li Yang infiltrate the circles of minors?

"Xixi, how do your classmates know about Li Yang?"

"Champion Scholar’s Notes, of course. Li Yang was the top scorer in the college entrance exam back then; every classmate in our class has a copy."

...

"Honey, we sold two players; what about next year’s competition?"

"Isn’t there one who will just turn of age next year? Besides, several of our team’s players are now quite well-known, and they’re strong. They should be spread out. Ideally, every team would have one or two popular players so everyone can benefit from the exposure, and some teams won’t be filthy rich while others are dirt poor."

"What if they don’t integrate well?"

"If they don’t integrate well, that’s the players’ problem. There may also be conflicts with previous players; these are all uncontrollable factors. Besides, with me around, who dares not to play well? I’ll curb them!"

Bai Qing: "..."

She could see that Li Yang was serious about this matter.

He also wasted a lot of his energy.

It was basically Li Yang who was leading everything at Aurora Studio, single-handedly pushing event viewership to its peak.

Currently, there are at least a dozen survival-type games in China, but none can steal traffic from PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, ultimately having to give up.

Penguin Game, in search of a breakthrough, directly ported Blue Hole’s battle royale game to mobile in an attempt to seize the mobile gaming market first.

Indeed, their two mobile games were quite good, particularly one called Exciting Battlegrounds, which quickly became the most downloaded mobile game within six months.

However... their mobile game didn’t pass the review.

On the other hand, Aurora Studio definitely also made a mobile game, and it passed the review smoothly, with a plan to release it next month.

A game that passed review fighting against one that didn’t — Bai Qing could already foresee the result.

As for why Penguin Game’s side didn’t pass the review, she didn’t know.

Anyway, she felt that all actions benefitting the company were silently backed by Li Yang.

Just like the night before last.

"Slurp, slurp..."

"What are you doing? Peeling fruit?"

"Hehe, yes, yes... Honey, you’ve worked so hard already, it’s time for me to work hard too."

"Then let’s discuss something..."

"What?"

"Let’s take a break tonight, give me a day off."

"?????"

Li Yang wanted a day off but didn’t get one.

He kind of missed the times when his parents were around.

At least back then, he could openly go back and stay, and Xue Ning didn’t dare do anything.

As for Bai Qing, she normally didn’t have time to come over.

Now things are fine, he’s free, but he’s busy elsewhere.

Virtually no days off.

But it’s quite enjoyable!

Even though it’s the most common thing, at the moment when his hands were anchored, there was an unprecedented sense of satisfaction inside.

...

Time moved forward between exhaustion and satisfaction, with November coming to an end and December arriving.

This final month of the year marks the closing phase for many companies.

But that doesn’t include Wanliu Capital and Extreme Shadow Group.

Extreme Shadow Group is just getting started.

Zhongzhou’s Foxconn started making moves again due to the Western sanctions bill. They wanted to follow along, hoping their masters would toss them a bone.

True, they are important as they involve the employment of hundreds of thousands of people.

But likewise, they are also making money.

Without the China market, they wouldn’t achieve their current scale; neither side owes the other.

They earn money here, enjoy the benefits here, yet turn around and pledge loyalty to their masters.

To Li Yang, this is a good opportunity, the best chance to perfect his image.

He had to thank those companies.

Therefore, he added some content to the press release script.

Up until the end of December, Li Yang received a call from his company.

Wanliu Capital placed an order for 270,000 cars with Extreme Shadow Cars, with a deposit of 500 million US dollars already paid.

Li Yang was very surprised at the time.

As a shareholder of Wanliu Capital and even the company’s fund manager, he hadn’t heard of this matter?

He immediately called Jiang Banxia.

"Wife, what’s going on? I just got a message that said Wanliu Capital ordered 270,000 cars?"

"Yep, right, doesn’t this make up the 500,000 for you?"

Li Yang said with a smile, "So my boasting came true with your help, huh."

"Nope, I think you anticipated my thoughts early on."

"Hahaha, alright, but why do you need so many cars? Where are you planning to use them?"

"Uh... haven’t thought of it yet... also, I don’t have enough money on hand now; I’ll have to wait for dividends next year for the rest."

"Let me think about it."

"Okay, okay."

These cars definitely won’t get delivered, and Li Yang has been modifying the production lines lately.

The overall change isn’t drastic, mainly to accommodate the next generation, which adds a lot of new features.

Li Yang feels deeply touched.

He used to be the one providing emotional value for Jiang Banxia, and now the roles have switched.

It was initially a casual boast, but Jiang Banxia took it seriously.

Upon discovering that even though Extreme Shadow Cars were extremely popular, they couldn’t reach 500,000 due to various reasons, she decided to use the power of money.

Hundreds of billions just for a small matter.

Just like what Jiang Banxia said long ago, she earns money to spend on Li Yang.

Jiang Banxia is quite reserved; she rarely says "I love you" out loud, but she truly acts on it.

...

January 28th, just a few days before the New Year.

The internet is eagerly anticipating one thing.

Which is the new car launch by Extreme Shadow Cars.

The vast majority of people are just there for the spectacle, mainly enjoying Li Yang’s boasting.

Li Yang’s catchphrase is: some company’s certain technology is the best in the world!

Most people can’t distinguish between true and false, with some online folks doing specific analyses, which ends up educating the public about the industrial situation in China.

If it wasn’t for this traffic mogul Li Yang bringing it up, many companies would remain unknown for a lifetime, with most people believing all our industries are low-end, easily believing comments like someone saying their company’s machine tools are all imported from abroad.

In fact, quite a few advanced machine tools are domestically produced, and genuinely imported tools are either seen as just passable by company bosses or... offer more kickbacks when bought from abroad.

Every year, China’s export value of machine tools reaches 50 billion US dollars. Since 2009, its export volume has been top in the world, and in recent years, it has almost dominated the global machine tool industry, with high-end tools accounting for 43% and mid-to-low-end reaching as much as 78%.

For this release conference, Li Yang is particularly attentive.

He spent two full months preparing for it.

Partly because both of this year’s car models are undergoing the most important updates, and partly because this time next year, it won’t be as feasible to hold such an event.

He can’t affect the uncontrollable factors.

After the opening remarks, Li Yang took the microphone and walked to the forefront.

"Thank you all for coming to support us. This year is now 2019. Unknowingly, our great country has been established for 70 years. Recently, I’ve been reading many biographies of predecessors and found that even though I’m born decades later, whether in vision or scope, I don’t measure up to even one of their hairs... I’m quite ashamed..."

Hearing this, Ye Bingcheng in the audience felt a twinge in his heart.

He sensed that Li Yang was planning something big this time!
