Bai Luqi is in a foul mood and speaks recklessly. Today she has already called Chen Xiao a beast twice.

He reached out and handed the rosewood sword he usually played with to Chairman Bai.

When Chairman Bai was "chasing" Bai Sheng, who was running away in the living room with his head in his hands, with his sword raised, the voice from upstairs was like a spell to freeze people in place, its words becoming law.

Those who were wielding swords to attack others, and those who were running away with their heads in their hands, all stopped.

Bai Sheng was completely bewildered. "Why is there someone upstairs? And it's a man?"

Aside from himself and Chairman Bai, not a single male mosquito could fly into his house. Yet here was a man, on the second floor. He quickly looked up, and upon seeing that, he gasped and collapsed to the ground again.

"Chen Chen. General Manager." — His tongue seemed to be tied in a knot, each word squeezed out from between his teeth, trembling. The rest of the sentence completely stalled, leaving only meaningless breathy "ah...uh..." sounds.

His face turned pale with fright. How could Chen Xiao be at home? Hadn't his insults about being a beast been heard clearly and plainly?

My legs felt like they had been ripped out of their bones; my knees buckled, and I collapsed to my knees with a thud, the dull thud of my patella hitting the floor audible.

Chen Xiao smiled and slowly walked down the stairs.

"Uncle Bai, Brother Sheng was probably just joking—"

Chairman Bai's face was grim. How could he have given birth to such a thing? His daughter's boyfriend had come to visit for the first time, and the boy was already badmouthing him behind his back.

The key is, is Mr. Chen an ordinary person? Even I, an elder, am nervous in his presence. Look at his generosity! He gifted me a Gu Jingzhou "Ti Bi Teapot" worth 1000 million yuan, and even gave Bai Lu 200 billion yuan for investment.

He knew why his son was yelling so dramatically. His daughter told him about it when she came home, and if he didn't have high blood pressure or heart disease, he would have fainted too.

Before learning Chen Xiao's true identity, he always thought his family was well-off and was planning to invite the young man over to check him out.

After learning about Chen Xiao's true identity, he gave up his plan to investigate her, but he still felt that his family was well-off and his wife's family was powerful, so his daughter would have a high status in her husband's family.

But when Chen Xiao poured in 200 billion, Chairman Bai was completely dumbfounded. His own assets were probably not even a fraction of what Chen Xiao had; his own strength was basically negligible.

It was outrageous. So, Bai Sheng actually wanted to yell that too, but he held back. Bai Sheng had just called Chen Xiao a beast, and he rushed down to beat his son, partly to show Chen Xiao, and partly because Bai Sheng's shout had resonated with him emotionally; he also needed to vent by beating his son. He, too, desperately wanted to shout those words—"Chen Xiao, you're a beast!"

He worked hard all his life to earn money, but in the end, it wasn't even worth a single finger of his daughter's. Where can he find justice in this?

As Chen Xiao came downstairs, Bai Sheng got up from the ground. "Yes, yes, Mr. Chen is right. I was just joking. I've been working hard lately and I'm a little dizzy. I spoke without thinking."

"It's because the Guo Group's business volume is too large, right?" Chen Xiao smiled gently. Bai Sheng seemed to have met a kindred spirit and nodded vigorously. "President Chen is right, right, that's exactly it."

He sat down next to Bai Lu, took the tea she offered, and took a sip. "To be honest, it was my fault. I didn't consider Sheng Ge's capacity and gave you so much business at once. Here's what I'll do: I'll call President Guo later and have him cut your business in half, so you won't have to work so hard."

Ah—Bai Sheng's face immediately fell. Although he knew that Chen Xiao was mostly bluffing, he was still scared. He quickly begged for mercy, "No need, no need. My mission, Bai Sheng, is to be a slave to the Bai family and the Jiangzhou Design Institute. I'm not afraid of being tired, I'm only afraid of not being tired enough."

"Yeah--!?"

Chen Xiao gave him a meaningful look, then asked, "So what exactly are you doing that's so tiring? You didn't go to massage parlors looking for number 88 too often, did you?"

Bai Sheng was speechless. Number 88 it is, better than being haunted by him. "Yes, it's just that I've been looking for Number 88 so much lately that I'm a little nervous."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Chen Xiao said to him from behind, "Sister-in-law, did you hear that? Brother Sheng is overworking and needs to replenish his energy."

Bai Sheng turned around abruptly, realizing he was in deep trouble. Seeing his wife storming upstairs, Bai Sheng cried out with a mournful face, "I can't live like this anymore!"

He quickly caught up with her, saying, "Wife, wait! It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"

Turning around, she said, "What misunderstanding? You've been feeling very weak lately; your symptoms match perfectly."

Bai Sheng's face flushed red. Family scandals shouldn't be aired in public. Why are they making such a fuss? He glanced downstairs and saw that Chairman Bai had obviously heard it too. He sighed and said, "Luckily, I already have a grandson. Otherwise, I would really be worried."

Bai Sheng was sullen during dinner. He was so angry. His brother-in-law used to bully him at home, so he thought his brother-in-law would at least be more polite to him. But now that this powerful brother-in-law had come, he knew he would never be able to turn his life around.

When seeing Chen Xiao off, Chen Xiao patted him on the shoulder and said, "You can be a little bolder. If 5 million isn't enough, ask Bai Lu for more."

This was the only human word Bai Sheng heard all night—no, it should be said to a human being.

Chen Xiao's visit to the Bai family this time was partly due to his relationship with Bai Lu, and it was time to pay a visit to Chairman Bai. Another reason was to accelerate the development of the Jiangzhou Design Institute. Guo Fu's smart city project is a trillion-yuan project in the future, and the Jiangzhou Design Institute, with its current scale, is far too weak to even provide supporting services.

He recently intended to give each woman her own career. For Bai Lu, he'd give her 20 billion and let her learn how to invest, whether it was in the Jiangzhou Design Institute or new projects. However, the Jiangzhou Design Institute certainly wouldn't need 200 billion; according to Chen Xiao's estimation, 200 billion would be enough. That's why he told him to be bolder before leaving.

Chen Xiao didn't care whether the 2 billion yuan was for capital increase and share expansion of Jiangzhou Design Institute or a loan from Bai Lu to Jiangzhou Design Institute. The 20 billion yuan was for Bai Lu, so she could manage it as she pleased.
-
In Q2, Inno Group's performance was outstanding, with sales of 28 billion yuan, representing a 60% year-on-year increase. Net profit reached 5.2 million yuan, with a net profit margin approaching 20%. This is practically a game-changer in the retail industry. The main reason for this is undoubtedly that its growth was primarily driven by the Junxiao Commercial Management system, where high performance was coupled with a rent-to-sales ratio of only 5%.

Compared to previous giants in the retail industry, Jincheng Sports' Q2 financial report showed sales of 52 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 52%, and net profit of 2 million yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 70%, with a net profit margin of only about 4%.

Jincheng Sports' stock has plummeted in the past two days. Its market value has dropped from 500 billion yuan to less than 200 billion yuan in just two months. Shareholders are outraged, demanding that CEO Wei step down and leave the company, claiming he's ruined it. Little do they know, CEO Wei is also cursing, saying he's being dragged down by his own nephew.

The more you earn, the more dividends you receive.

Inno Group distributed 4 million yuan in dividends in Q2, and still has several billion yuan in cash flow, which is very ample. Xiang Jun holds 80% of the shares in Inno Group and received 2.52 million yuan in after-tax dividends.

She never keeps money; she transferred 2.4 million yuan to Chen Xiao before she even had a chance to enjoy it.

[Ding! Detected that Zhao Xiangjun transferred 2.4 million to the host, activating the Heterosexual Blessing Fund reward. The Heterosexual Blessing Fund is now worth 3398 billion, bringing the total Heterosexual Blessing Fund account to 4062 billion.]

Junxiao Group only had 1000 billion in cash on its books. Xiangjun's cash injection was a timely help. Chen Xiao had 4000 billion of it transferred to Junxiao Group's account through the system, and the group's cash flow exceeded 5000 billion again.

He opened Xiangjun's panel and took a look:
[Opposite Sex Blessings Fund: Zhao Xiangjun (Devotion Value '118)]

[Occupation: Yirui Business Men's Wear - Gold Medal Shopping Guide]

【Devotion and Reward Fund: 62 million yuan】

【Asset Status:
Property: A villa in Bihu Shuangxi

Companies: Yinuo Group (80% equity), Junxiao Group (49%), Jiexun Sports (70% equity)

Junxiao Group's assets: 11690 billion yuan

Junxiao Group account balance: 5070 billion

Junxiao Group's US dollar account balance: 22 million]

Now that he truly has net assets exceeding one trillion yuan, he discovered that the system's net asset statistics are not entirely accurate. This is because many of the properties he purchased have appreciated in value, but some may actually be worth less than what he spent. For example, Hengyuan Plaza and Huijin Plaza in Shanghai were acquired at a high premium, and their actual value is roughly halved.

Therefore, the system's calculation method is simple and straightforward: it calculates the value based on its own acquisition cost, regardless of whether the value appreciates or depreciates.

Junxiao Commercial Management has gradually become partially self-sufficient.
Junxiaocheng: In June, the total sales of 19 Junxiaocheng stores reached 141 billion yuan, and the rental income was 28 billion yuan (mainly due to the new contributions from Shanghai Hengyuan Plaza and Pengcheng Wanshangcheng).

Junwu Plaza: In May, sales reached 420 million yuan, and rental income reached 60 million yuan;
Junxiao Plaza: 47 stores, sales of 80 billion yuan, rental income of 13 million yuan.

In June, the entire Junxiao Commercial Management system achieved sales of 225.3 billion yuan, a month-on-month increase of 27%; and rental income of 41.6 billion yuan, a month-on-month increase of 30%.

In June, Junxiao Commercial Management acquired 12 new properties, spending 118 billion yuan on the acquisitions. Although it was still operating at a loss, the proportion of funds that needed to be allocated by the group was decreasing.

Junxiao Hotel Group currently has 19 operating projects.
Among them, there are 2 seven-star hotels, 16 six-star hotels, and 1 five-star hotel. Gao Yuexin acquired 3 new six-star hotels last month, two of which are in South Korea. However, they opened at the end of the month and did not contribute much to the performance. The hotel revenue this month is slightly higher than last month, which is also due to the growth brought by the hotels acquired in May, which did not operate for a full month in May but completed a full month in June.

Financial statements of Junxiao Hotel Management Group:
统计收入的有7星级酒店2座(迪拜泛船酒店与希格尼尔酒店);6星级酒店13座,5星级酒店一座!
Room revenue: 25 billion yuan.

Catering income:

1. Buffet/Lunch/Dinner: Monthly revenue of 5.9 million yuan;

2. Bars/Afternoon Tea: Monthly revenue of 2.6 million yuan; Other revenue:

1. Meetings/Banquets: Monthly revenue of 13 billion yuan;

2. Spa/Wellness: Monthly revenue of 3.3 million yuan;

3. Ancillary services: private butler, chauffeur service (Rolls-Royce), monthly revenue of 1.5 million.

In total, monthly revenue from guest rooms is 25 billion + half-month revenue from non-guest rooms is 26.3 billion = 51.3 billion.

It still exceeds Junxiao Commercial Management's revenue. If this continues, Gao Yue can acquire another hotel in a few months and become completely self-sufficient. Unexpectedly, Junxiao Hotel has become the first of the several business units that can provide reverse funding to the group. I need to give Gao Yue a good boost when I see her these next few days.

Her itinerary this time was similar to Lin Ya's, and the two of them hadn't joined forces against her for a long time, so this time she could give them a chance.

Junxiao Capital:

Currently, it holds controlling or minority stakes in more than 1050 companies, with investments exceeding 750 billion yuan, and controls corporate assets exceeding 10000 billion yuan.

Compared to last month, the number of invested companies has increased by 100, and the investment amount has increased by 200 billion. Junxiao Capital is now gradually increasing its investment pace. On the one hand, it is investing in early-stage and small-scale high-tech startups to vigorously support emerging domestic enterprises. On the other hand, it has begun to expand internationally and make large-scale acquisitions. Recently, it has started to compete with capital giants such as BlackRock and Goldman Sachs.

Junxing Auto:

The Junxing M7 continues to sell well. Huadi's Ruishi N7L, when it was launched, was touted with exaggerated claims, such as "A tiger descends the mountain, leaving no way for the Junxing." However, the Junxing M7 is still guaranteeing over 1.5 new orders per month. Combined with the existing order backlog of around 4, the monthly delivery and registration volume remains around 2.5 units.

Meanwhile, the Ruishi N7L, which was supposed to be a powerful car, is now selling less than 1000 units per week. Keep in mind that this is a very poor performance even though the car was just launched and received a wave of orders at the press conference. If we wait for it to stabilize, it might sell 2 or 300 units per month again.

Junxing Motors' second super factory started construction this month, and today it has already transferred 70 billion yuan of the second phase factory to Dr. Feng Robotics Technology Group. So this morning, Ma Jing went to Dr. Feng Technology Group's company park to submit her bonus application, which is another big source of income.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

[Ding~ Detected that the host has received a business commission bonus of 7 million yuan from Dr. Feng Robotics Technology Group, and a dedication bonus of 756 billion yuan. After the rewards, the account balance is 1726 billion yuan.]

Wow, this wave has brought back all the money I gave to Bailu, and there's even some left over.

The thought had barely finished when another notification appeared:
[Ding~ Detected that the host has received a business commission bonus of 1.8 million yuan from Zhifei Aerospace and a dedication bonus of 194.4 billion yuan. After the rewards, the account balance is 1920.4 billion yuan.]

He can't spend it all, he simply can't spend it all. Let alone this money, he receives 1200 million yuan a day in welfare. If it weren't for the large expenditures he gives to Bai Lu, he wouldn't even be able to spend all of his welfare money.

"Boss~!" Zhang Ziqian interrupted Chen Xiao's train of thought.

Today she was wearing a JK short skirt, the hem of which reached above her knees, revealing her fair and delicate calves. As she walked, the jade-like skin of her thighs was sometimes visible and sometimes hidden.

"Zhang Man and Li Xiaona's whereabouts have been tracked down. After they parted ways at the Bund Hotel in Shanghai, they took a taxi to the airport and boarded an international flight to the UAE. From there, they flew to Cape Town."

Cape Town? A strange light flashed in Chen Xiao's eyes. Back then, Li Zhi'en was attacked in Cape Town by that "miner" surnamed Joe and his gang. After being rescued by the "Blue Star Guardians," Joe was soon sent to meet his maker by a drone bomb.

Then, the miners who had previously cooperated with him came to cause trouble. It was rumored that they had invested 1000 billion RMB in Wansheng Group, a rather grand act of revenge. But Chen Xiao never took it to heart. 1000 billion RMB was an astronomical figure for others. To him, it was just 1000 billion RMB, something he didn't even care about.

"Could it be that Zhang Man and Li Xiaona provided information, and those miners arranged for mercenaries to be hired?"

As he spoke, he pulled Zhang Ziqian over and, without any hesitation, placed his hand on her thigh and began to knead it. Although he hadn't officially accepted her as his secretary yet, the intimacy between the two of them was already just one step away from taking the final step.

Zhang Ziqian was already used to Chen Xiao's strange hands; his thighs and buttocks were so familiar to him that she couldn't be more familiar with them.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out; we are still investigating further."

"Let Hassan give those small-time miners a good beating. Whether it's them or not, a good beating is the least they can do. Consider it the price for helping Wansheng Group oppose me."

What's the current situation with Joe's son?

Qiao's son almost hit Zhang Ziqian's father while driving a BMW 7 Series. After getting out of the car, he beat Zhang's father severely. So Chen Xiao arranged for him to be sent to jail on charges of assaulting an elderly person.

He was sentenced to 10 years.

Speaking of this matter, Zhang Ziqian felt that it was all because of her father's affairs that so many things had happened. If this attack had caused Chen Xiao to be injured, then she would truly be unforgivable.

Sensing her sudden drop in mood, Chen Xiao guessed what she was thinking. He lifted the seam of her underwear, revealing two white buttocks, and slapped them lightly. "Don't ignore your wild thoughts—"

Zhang Ziqian pouted. She hadn't been thinking anything of it before, but the way he hit her made her start to think about it.

"Brother Chen Xiao—ah~!"

Ma Jing pushed open the door and came in, just in time to see this scene. She immediately laughed and said, "Did I come at the wrong time?"

Zhang Ziqian was extremely embarrassed and quickly sat up. "I was reporting to my boss."

Ma Jing chuckled and said, "I know, I'm familiar with this. Back then, I was reporting on my work, and it ended up going to my bedroom."

Chen Xiao stood up. "Alright, stop laughing at Ziqian. She's too delicate."

When people say Zhang Ziqian has a youthful face, it reminds me of when Ma Jing recommended her to him, saying she was an "old hand," but so far Chen Xiao hasn't noticed.

Ma Jing chuckled, "Your face is tender, but is it as tender as her butt?"

Knowing she was laughing at his earnest, coy manner just now, he pinched Ma Jing's cheek: "You took my bonus and came right back without even asking if Fei Fei had been doing well lately?"

"Ugh—don't even mention it. I really came back too early; I have to go again in the next couple of days."

As soon as Ma Jing arrived downstairs at the Junxiao Huanhu CBD Center, the finance department of Dr. Feng Robotics Technology Group told her that the 10 billion yuan in expenses for this month from Junxing Intelligent R&D Center had been transferred, which could be used to help President Chen withdraw his bonus.

"Let's go in a couple of days. I'm not short of money. Hassan's procurement funds will arrive in a few days, and you can collect them all at once."

Xu Wu is back. This business trip was originally scheduled for a week, but because of Chen Xiao's incident in Shanghai, she shortened the trip, returning to Jiangzhou first to see He Qing before heading out again. Moreover, she's back for important business; the head of Hanjiang Province is coming to the company for a research visit.

We had lunch together and talked about the company's rapid development and the problem of not being able to keep up with the talent shortage, especially for research personnel. Compared with other municipalities, Jiangzhou is much less attractive to high-level talent, while Junxiao Group currently has a huge demand for talent, which has become the group's biggest challenge at present.

“Awu, what do you think about us building Junxiao University? This would solve the talent shortage problem, reduce training time costs, and in the long run, it would also help us control industry standards and create a closed-loop ecosystem, forming an integrated system of education, employment, and research and development.”

He nodded. "It seems your university standards aren't low either. You set the tone. Boss Zheng is coming to the company for a visit this afternoon, and I'll talk to him about this."

Some time ago, he wanted to build a world-class hospital, and now he wants to build a university. Based on Xu Wu's understanding of him, it must be a top-notch university.

Both of these matters have the absolute support of the local government, not to mention the enormous contribution of Junxiao Group, a behemoth, to GDP and tax revenue.

Take Junxing Auto as an example. It drives the development of the upstream and downstream industrial chains. Junxiao Capital has invested in and supported so many emerging high-tech industries in Hanjiang. These contributions are already very obvious, but the real boom is yet to come.

Junxiao Capital is currently the fastest and most powerful investment firm in China, which has attracted many companies that align with Junxiao Capital's investment direction to invest and build factories in Jiangzhou.

With the boost that Junxing Auto and Shanyun Auto are bringing to upstream and downstream industries, and Junxiao Capital's heavy investment in supply chain companies, a huge industrial cluster has now been formed in Jiangzhou.

It can be said that Junxiao Group is the precious gem of Hanjiang, supporting half of Hanjiang's economy. Since taking office six months ago, Mr. Zheng has visited the group three times, demonstrating the importance he attaches to Junxiao Group, which is unparalleled by any other company.

When Huadi Auto Group came to invest in Hanjiang, it wasn't up to Boss Zheng to personally show up. Boss Zheng might show up when General Manager Wang came, but the second boss was the one who mainly handled the work-related matters.

But things are different with Junxiao Group. "No matter is too small for Junxiao," were Mr. Zheng's exact words. He demanded that he be informed of any matter involving Junxiao Group immediately.

This is understandable. If companies like Junxiao Group felt wronged and moved away from Hanjiang, the economy of Jiangzhou and even Hanjiang would regress by at least 20 years, or even take 20 years to recover. Wouldn't that make them the sinners of Hanjiang Province?

Mr. Zheng's research was by no means a simple "perfunctory" activity, but a high-level political and economic act that conveyed important policy signals, solved key problems, and guided the direction of the industry.

He came this time because of the groundbreaking self-developed computing chip launch event a while ago. He'd been wanting to come ever since, but Xu Wu was away on a business trip. (End of Chapter)
