Clearly, the figure that Song Xiaogang had mentioned had taken his father by surprise.
His father suddenly became trance-like, stayed silent for a long time without speaking, and after a while swallowed hard, his voice hoarse as he asked, "Ho... how much?"
For an ordinary person like him, let alone a million US dollars, even a million CNY was an astronomical amount that he hadn't seen in his entire life!
What's more, this was a yearly income!
So, he thought he had misheard, or perhaps his son was joking with him. How could anyone earn a million US dollars a year? It was simply impossible!
After all, his son had just graduated from university, and he wasn't some kind of prodigy either, just someone who had paid his own way to study abroad...
His greatest wish had been for his son to earn a decent degree and then, through connections and pulling some strings, to get him a job in his own workplace.
