The system gifted Shang Yunyun a top-tier luxury super yacht! "The Celestial, launched last year after 12 years of construction, is 742 meters long and 344 meters high! Wow, that's impressive! The yacht is worth 17.7 billion, and can accommodate up to 30,000 people..."
Shang Yunyun was stunned. What was he supposed to do with such a super yacht? He couldn't possibly use it just for a vacation; traveling on such a large vessel meant he'd need to start a travel company!
A travel company? An idea sparked in his mind. With such a powerful logistics tool at his disposal, running a tourism business was definitely within reach! Plus, he could assemble several transport vehicles into a large aircraft, flying a fixed number of people through the skies and making stops at tourist attractions. However, that would create major cross-national issues!
"Forget it, I won't think about it for now. Where is this ship, system?"
"It's on its way to the Imperial Capital; it'll take a few more days to reach the nearby waters!"
"Got it! I'll just wait! What a surprise this is!"
After spending a while observing the versatile land in the system space, he found no significant discoveries. Although some strange creatures began to appear, these bizarre insects were ones he had never seen on Earth. But Shang Yunyun shrugged it off; with hundreds of thousands of insect species on Earth, maybe it was just his lack of knowledge!
As night fell, Shang Yunyun drifted into a deep sleep. The next day was the weekend, and his secretaries were all at home. When he went downstairs, they were just finishing breakfast!
"Young Master, you're up! Come eat!"
"Zhang Aunty, Li Aunty, no need to serve me separately in the dining room. I can eat with everyone! There are no formalities here!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
During breakfast, Shang Jiancheng spoke up, "Young Master, I've already met with the managers and above at Yuan Investment over the past couple of days and held a meeting. I've shared your ideas with them, and they're all quite relieved!"
"Relieved about what? That they're no longer tied to the Jiang Group? That someone has taken over, and this person has plans for the company's future?"
"Exactly, Young Master! Yuan Investment is quite worried now; the troubles with the Jiang Group have caused all their subsidiaries and investments to face huge setbacks. No company can detach itself from the Jiang Group, and now that you've easily acquired Yuan Investment, even though they don't fully understand your background or capabilities, at least changing owners makes things easier. You may not know, but lately, every business in the Northern Chamber has strong resistance against the Jiang family and the five major clans. Even if some small and medium-sized companies can't compete with the Six Great Families, their unity poses a formidable force, thanks to sheer numbers. Moreover, with Ai Hongcheng's backing, even banks have to give them some leeway."
"Besides the Jiang family, the other five families, including the Xu family where Miss Xu is from, are now facing problems. Many of their project teams are stalled due to funding cuts and suppliers halting collaborations, along with many other losses!"
"If suppliers halt cooperation, can they be sued?"
"Young Master, under normal circumstances, with sufficient funds, sure! But if the banks refuse loans and several companies suddenly face operational shutdowns, and with Ai Hongcheng watching over everything, then this situation needs careful handling! I've noticed the Xu family's predicament is urgent; before their funding cuts, they suffered serious losses from a couple of major investments. This led them to closely collaborate with the Jiang family, hoping to leverage Jiang's assets to rescue themselves. Unexpectedly, just as they began deep cooperation, Ai Hongcheng blocked them. Young Master, the Xu family needs to repay around 3.3 billion each month in principal and interest, and they have over 20 billion in other debts to settle monthly. On top of that, they have massive employee costs, operational expenses, taxes, and project claims to deal with!"
"Jiancheng! Are you telling me all this for a reason?"
"Young Master, if you're interested, you could target some small and medium enterprises under other families; many of them are in highly profitable industries!"
"Haha, let's leave the Xu family for now. I can't take advantage of their crisis. But if someone from the Xu family comes to me seeking help, I might consider it!"
"Yes, Young Master! What are your plans for Yuan Investment? Do you want to visit them?"
"What's the size of their office space? Can they accommodate those from the Joint Phi?"
"They can, as long as they lease a ten to eight-story office building!"
"Yuan Investment doesn't even have its own main office?"
