Chapter 205 Business Goddess

She was like an actress who gradually lived the character as her understanding of the script deepened. As the materials about Ding Ning on the desktop accumulated, she had an increasing interest in this man destined for her.

She was eager to know everything about him and his daily life. Ding Ning was just like poppy, which made her gradually addicted as she knew more about him.

She didn’t know since when checking Ding Ning’s daily whereabouts and actions had become her greatest joy. She found pleasure in it tirelessly.

Therefore, when she learned that Ding Ning had disappeared and might be dead, the doom and gloom made her, who had always been calm, lose her composure. She was like a gunpowder barrel that was about to explode, filled with monstrous fury and the intention of destroying everything.

When she learned that Ding Ning showed up safely, the euphoria swept away all her gloom. She still believed that she lost her composure because of disappointing her godmother who had entrusted Ding Ning to her.

But until she saw that scene, she noticed that she faintly felt jealous and suddenly realized that this guy had already occupied her heart unconsciously.

It seemed that in addition to being entrusted by her godmother, there was something else.

Was it the feeling of love? Ding Qianlie did not feel nervous, flurried and regretful. Instead, with the corners of her mouth lifted, she showed a faint smile.

This was what she expected, wasn’t it? The story could have a perfect ending only if she fell in love with her nominal younger brother as well as her actual future husband.

Looking at Ding Ning who concentrated in the assessment, she suddenly felt a trace of warmth in her heart, and her frosty face melted. This kind of love seemed to be good, just like the arranged marriage in which they could cultivate feelings for each other anyway.

Although the guy seemed like a playboy, it was not difficult for her, who had lived in an open foreign country for a long time, to accept that. At least, he treated every woman very seriously, didn’t he?

“President, there is a call for you from George Floss, the new president of the Asia Area of Jiaboshi Group of the U.S. Would you like to answer it?”

Lisa asked while covering the microphone, which interrupted Ding Qianlie’s illusion and made her frown unhappily, “I’ve said that I don’t want to answer any call today.”

“But this is George Floss…”

Lisa’s voice became increasingly low and stopped under Ding Qianlie’s cold gaze. Lisa picked up the phone and said with a professional smile, “Hello, President George, president Ding can’t answer your phone for some personal reasons. I will tell president Ding that you have called her.”

“Oh, dear Lisa, please tell her that I should talk to her because of an emergency. Please ask her to call me back as soon as possible.”

There came the voice of a foreigner with an eccentric accent over the phone.

“Okay, President George, when it is convenient for president Ding to answer the phone, I will tell her. I gotta go!”

Lisa replied politely and immediately hung up.

“Shit, bitch, how dare you to hang up my phone? I’ll get on top of you and screw you sooner or later.”

On the golf course of Greenland Manor, a blond white youth, who wore a white sports suit, listened to the electric current sound from the phone and viciously cursed in rigid Chinese with the muscles twisting on his handsome face.

“What’s wrong? George, who has always been successful in hooking up with girls, can be refused? Who dare not respect my dear friend?”

Beside him, a tall Chinese man with a pair of glasses gave an incredible swing, satisfactorily wiped his sweat and asked playfully.

“Don’t mention it. I like the Chinese woman. In order to pursue her, I sought a chance of serving as the president of the Asia Area in China from my family. I didn’t expect that she even doesn’t answer my phone and keeps hiding from me. She really breaks my heart.”

George shrugged, looking sad and helpless.

“Oh? She dares to refuse the invitation of Brother George. This woman is really unusual. Tell me who she is. Maybe I can help you.”

The Chinese man raised his eyebrows in surprise. He knew how powerful the Floss family behind George was in the U.S.

Besides, George was a romantic and incredibly handsome womanizer known as a lady killer. The woman, who could make such a man come all the way here to pursue her, was enough to evoke his curiosity.

“Dear Liu, we are classmates as well as best friends. Let me tell you the truth. This woman is not only beautiful, but also very capable. With one million dollars as the start-up funds, she had earned more ten billion dollars in Wall Street in just half a year and then returned to China to set up Longteng Group. Her name is Ding Qianlie. I fell in love with her at first sight. She is my goddess as well as the only woman I want to marry in my life. As long as you can help me pursue her, I can consent to any request from you.”

George gesticulated merrily, without hiding his admiration for Ding Qianlie.

She could make this super rich second generation, who had always played unrestrainedly through life, willing to step into the grave of marriage, which suddenly surprised Liu Junwei.

Nevertheless, on hearing Longteng Group, Liu Junwei suddenly realized that it turned out to be that woman. It was not difficult to understand, because she was qualified indeed.

If there was the most popular woman in the entire business circle of Ninghai now, it must be Ding Qianlie, the mysterious president of Longteng Group.

The mysterious women had a strange name, an exceedingly beautiful face and domineering temperament. She was merciless and decisive in business, completely unlike a newcomer in the business, making no one dare to underestimate her.

Liu Junwei had paid special attention to her information, so he could still remember it clearly.

Ding Qianlie was a 25-year-old Chinese American with a Ph.D. in Economics of Business School of Harvard University, known as Queen of Wonders of Wall Street. She suddenly returned to China two years ago, and quickly became one of the top 100 richest people of the business circle of Ninghai.

Some people speculated that the market value of Longteng Group had already exceeded ten billion yuan and was fully qualified for being listed. It could be listed smoothly after the required years, and its assets would instantly expand hundreds of times. There was no doubt that she would enter the Forbes Rich List. But there was no evidence which could support this statement.

It was only known that Longteng Group had aggressively engaged in the new energy industry in the early days of its establishment and affected the invisible interests of many people, so that it was encircled and suppressed by nine large companies with good qualifications in the industry.

At that time, in the eyes of all people, the nascent Longteng Group was a large fish to be slaughtered by a group of sharks. It was difficult for it to get rid of the fate of extinction, but the result greatly shocked everyone.

Nine large companies had joined forces to suppress Longteng Group and put it in a hopeless situation which was precarious and even doomed. In the eyes of all, any move was desperate struggle in vain, and it would overturn in the huge waves of the business circle of Ninghai at any time.

Even the presidents of the nine companies thought that the overall situation had been set, and gathered to celebrate with red wine and discuss how to divide the interests. Unexpectedly, extreme joy begot sorrow. There suddenly came bad news. The nine companies were secretly acquired by Longteng Group and owned by someone else that night. Ding Qianlie became the holder of the largest share and directly held a board of directors where she dismissed these presidents who were still celebrating.

It was a commercial war without smoke, but no less dangerous than a war on the battlefield. On the spot, there were two presidents with poor psychological endurance had a cerebral hemorrhage. If they had not been rescued timely, it would lead to a tragedy.

The secret acquisition of Longteng Group made these nine companies, which had been brilliant, become its subsidiaries and thus to lay the foundation for Longteng Group in the business circle of Ninghai and make it get a firm foothold. Not only its assets expanded greatly, but also its business expanded rapidly. Economists still talked about its commercial war means as classic cases.

After careful researches and analyses, it was discovered that the executives of Longteng Group completely consisted of young elites who were anonymous in China but internationally famous.

This was an elite team that made everyone covet and revere. They were young with unrestrained thinking, unparalleled resolution, a sharp sense of data beyond that of ordinary people and their ideas which were more avant-garde, more open-minded, more unrestrained, more diversified, more unique and sharper…

Only this elite team was enough to distress everyone. Unfortunately, they still had Ding Qianlie, the queen of wonders, who dared to wildly earn more than ten billion dollars on the Wall Street at the age of 23 and could retreat safely, as their leader. With such a legendary leader as the core, under her command, the elite team’s combat power rose sharply and their vibrant thinking turned into concrete execution and action, so that their thoughts became more effective when being applied to practical business operations. It was not surprising that the nine companies were acquired on the contrary.

What was the most valuable in the 21st century? The answer was undoubtedly talents.

There were some people who wanted to steal the talents of Longteng Group. However, after learning that a lower-level cadre of Longteng Group could at least get an annual salary of a million yuan, they dropped the idea. It could be seen that Longteng Group had a deep pocket.

Every effort would be paid back. The high salary paid by Longteng Group also got generous profits in return. In just over two years, the group had defeated all enemies with unstoppable momentum like a tornado and grown into a commercial giant who played a decisive role and could not be ignored in the entire business circle of Ninghai.

The group had engaged in hundreds of industries including new energy, minerals, real estate, smelting, food, clothing, hotel, tourism, catering, retail, luxury goods, entertainment, manufacturing, transportation, silk, ready-made clothes, tea, porcelain, etc.

All of those, who cast greedy eyes on the group, had learned lessons from the former examples and never dared to compete with it. Instead, they successively strove for cooperation with them and sought a win-win situation. They dared not have any other thoughts, lest they would go down the path of the nine companies.

Longteng Group had undoubtedly become a new commercial aircraft carrier with abundant funds, brilliant and vicious business means and subsidiaries which had spread throughout the Yangtze River Delta and kept expanding outwards.

Ding Qianlie was well-known, but very few people had met her. She was behind the company, and all the public activities were carried out by Feng Jie, a professional manager hired by her with a high salary. She had never accepted interviews and participated in various high-end cocktail parties where commercial elites gathered. She was known as the most mysterious business goddess.

Compared with her company, Yige Company established by Liu Junwei was just a drop in the bucket. Maybe Shenglong Group established by his uncle Liu Jianguo could compete with her company, but it was difficult to tell who would be the winner.

He was conceited but not stupid. If he rashly provoked such a powerful opponent in order to please this “handsome guy” whom he had cast greedy eyes on for long, he would lose more than gain.

Therefore, he shrugged and said apologetically, “Sorry, George, I can’t help you with that.”

“I know it. Forget it. Don’t mention it. I will figure out another way.”

George did not force him, but regretfully shrugged and changed the topic, “Where is Wright? Why didn’t he come this time?”

“You know, we have a small company. There must be someone in charge. If he doesn’t work overtime at night, maybe he will come over. We can ignore him. After dinner tonight, I’ll invite you to a bar and have some drink. There are numerous pretty women in China. I think you will like them.”

“OK, let’s relax at night. I like pretty Chinese girls. I hope to have a wonderful night. Now, let’s take a shower and prepare to have dinner.”

As soon as George heard about pretty Chinese girls, his eyes suddenly lit up and he couldn’t wait to go to the public bath.

Liu Junwei smiled and followed him, greedily looking at George’s upright and slender figure with desire in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, Ding Ning’s figure suddenly came to his mind, and he involuntarily compared him with George quietly.
