The Great Sage Returns from Ten Years of Imprisonment

After discussing with Attorney Zhang, Ling Yun called the two legal assistants to her office and assigned some tasks to the small team.

Within a few days, Attorney Zhang's team will rapidly expand into a professional legal and acquisitions team, dedicated to providing services to Lingyun.

Just after 9 p.m., Ling Yun led Zhang Lu away from the top floor and went down to the United Securities investment team's office area.

Upon entering the office area, they went straight to Mr. Chen, the investment director of China Investment Corporation, to discuss the matter of issuing high bonuses to members of the United Securities investment team.

Mr. Chen was naturally very pleased and promised to arrange a team to work with Attorney Zhang and his team tomorrow.

After discussing this matter, Lingyun told President Chen that he wanted to establish a financial investment holding company.

He asked Mr. Chen to keep an eye out for suitable acquisition targets in Beijing's financial circles.

As the investment director of China Investment Corporation, Mr. Chen has extensive connections and excellent access to information in Beijing's financial circles.

After listening to Ling Yun's introduction, President Chen immediately patted his chest and gave his assurance.

Immediately leverage your network to find him a suitable financial holding company that is willing to transfer controlling interest.

After discussing these matters, Ling Yun was the first to leave the CIC headquarters and go home to rest.

He had barely left when the US stock market opened.

Tonight, the stock markets in Europe and the United States followed his predictions, continuing their sharp decline.

The US financial sector, in particular, suffered another sharp drop of more than 5% today, following a 12% plunge yesterday, making the market look disastrous.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the United Securities investment team once again reaped a huge profit.

The cross-asset collaboration that Lingyun mentioned before has materialized as scheduled tonight.

As European and American stock markets plummeted, international oil prices followed suit and fell rapidly, with the decline quickly approaching -10%.

Unlike before, the joint investment team, the Yuanda crude oil investment team, and the investment departments of various airlines have all fallen silent this time and have not taken any action.

All the investment teams are following the investment strategy set by Lingyun and will change their investment style starting today, switching from short-term to medium- to long-term investment.

Then there's the US dollar index, which has been strengthening throughout the night, with gains exceeding 1.5% at one point, reversing its downward trend of the past month.

Just as the international financial market and crude oil futures market were undergoing dramatic changes, Ling Yun returned smoothly to his luxurious villa and immediately fell into a state of blissful intimacy.

When he got home, Da Meiyuan and Leilei had already returned.

Compared to previous nights, knowing that Lingyun was going home to rest tonight, they all dressed up in their finest clothes, looking incredibly sexy and alluring.

From the moment he entered, Ling Yun felt as if he had stumbled into a trap of cosmetics, surrounded by several sexy beauties.

Faced with such a sensual situation, he naturally embraced two women, completely absorbed in the pleasure.

After enjoying some tender moments, he finally managed to escape from the entourage of several beautiful women and went upstairs to wash up and change clothes.

About fifteen minutes later, he changed into his home clothes, came downstairs, walked straight into the living room, and sat down between Leilei and Yanzi.

As soon as she sat down, Da Meiyuan suddenly handed her a beautifully printed promotional poster.

"Darling, the premiere date for our play has been set. It will premiere at the Poly Theatre on October 12th. This is our premiere promotional poster."

"As a theater investor, shouldn't you take a look and give your opinion? If there's anything you're not satisfied with, it's not too late to make changes now."

Ling Yun reached out and took the play poster, then began to look at it with great interest.

The main image of this play poster is a climactic scene from the play, featuring all the most important characters.

In the center of the stage, the male and female leads stand under the spotlight, with the play's title right above their heads.

The male and female leads are played by Da Meiyuan and Park Cunxin respectively, and they are wearing costumes and performing attentively.

Behind them and to their left and right are other main actors in the play, including some star actors.

This includes two artists under Starlight Culture, both of whom had recently signed with the company.

They joined Starlight Culture because they saw that the new and old owners of Starlight Culture were quite capable and had made a series of big moves after the acquisition.

In addition, Da Meiyuan, being in a favorable position, kept extending enthusiastic invitations, which is why I joined Starlight Culture Company.

From the very first day they joined Starlight Culture, they knew how right their decision was.

Putting everything else aside, the substantial after-tax signing bonus alone was a pleasant surprise for them!

Ling Yun finished looking at the play poster in the blink of an eye and nodded in satisfaction.

"This play poster is beautifully made and has an elegant style. I think it's very good and doesn't need any changes."

"Your appearance in the play is beautiful and has a unique charm. I really like it. Keep up the good work, I have high hopes for your play."

With his affirmation, Da Meiyuan smiled even more brightly.

She leaned in and gave Lingyun a sweet kiss, nodding her head like a chick pecking at rice.

"Since you say this premiere poster is good, then we won't change it; we'll use this poster to start the promotion."

"There's one more thing. How many tickets are reserved for you for the premiere? Are you going with Leilei and the others, or are you going alone?"

"My mom and the others will be going to the premiere, and I'll take this opportunity to introduce you two. A prospective son-in-law always needs to meet his mother-in-law!"

As she asked these questions, Leilei and Yanzi all looked at Lingyun.

Needless to say, they certainly wanted to go to the play with Lingyun; that would be much more romantic.

Leilei, in particular, was eager to take this opportunity to let Lingyun meet her parents.

They've been in a relationship for so long, and Leilei's dad still hasn't met Lingyun!

Ever since Leilei announced at home the huge fortune Lingyun had helped her earn, her father's desire to see Lingyun has become even stronger.

Unfortunately, Ling Yun just smiled and shook his head.

"I really can't go to the play premiere with Leilei and Yanzi this time. There are a few reasons for this, and I'll explain them one by one."

"The first reason is that the Poly Theatre is very close to where I currently work, so I might run into someone I know at the theatre."

"The second reason, as I mentioned before, is that a bunch of scoundrels on Wall Street are secretly investigating me. For security and confidentiality reasons, I cannot be with you in public."

"There's an even more important reason, which I can't tell you now. You'll find out the answer on the night of the premiere. This reason is why I can't be with you that night."

The women exchanged glances and simultaneously pouted.

Although they were a little disappointed, they had no choice but to nod, considering the reasons Ling Yun gave and the special nature of his identity.

"Alright, it seems that's the only way. Fortunately, we'll be in the same theater."

"Hmph, I'd love to see what your most important reason is that you're keeping it a secret from us!"

Ling Yun smiled and then looked at Da Meiyuan.

"Just reserve twenty tickets for the premiere, and they must be in the very center of the first row."

"About an hour before the premiere, I'll have someone check the theater; you don't need to worry about those things."

Da Meiyuan paused for a moment, then replied:

"Okay, honey, I'll reserve enough tickets for you."

As we chatted and laughed, it was nearly 11 p.m.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lingyun suggested that everyone go upstairs to rest.

Before he finished speaking, Jia Jingwen immediately pressed herself against him with seductive eyes, as if she wanted to hang on to him.

The slow-witted Da Meiyuan and Lei Lei spat in unison, clearly annoyed.

"Pah, you're way too impatient!"

"Don't worry, we won't compete with you, you vixen. Go ahead and be all seductive later!"

Jia Jingwen wasn't embarrassed at all and retorted a few words in a coquettish tone.

"A vixen? Really? Am I no longer capable? People used to call me a little vixen!"

As she spoke, she tiptoed and gave Lingyun a sweet kiss.

Looking at Da Meiyuan and the others, their eyes were practically rolling to the sky.

Amidst laughter and playful banter, Ling Yun put his arm around Jia Jingwen's slender waist and went upstairs to the master bedroom to spend the night together!

The other three beauties went back to their respective bedrooms, slamming the doors shut!

Meanwhile, on the other side of the ocean.

Goldman Sachs headquarters building, CEO's office.

Lauder looked at Lewis, who had come to say goodbye, with surprise in his eyes.

"Why did you suddenly leave early? Weren't you supposed to leave for Beijing tomorrow? I'm afraid your entourage isn't ready yet."

Lewis shook his head and smiled as he offered a few words of explanation.

"You know, my style of doing things has always been to surprise people, so I can catch them off guard. I've never learned to follow rules since I was a child!"

"I plan to go to Hong Kong Island first to see if those idiots at the Hong Kong branch have found anything out. I hope those idiots are of some use, and I hope I don't have to do it myself."

"More importantly, I'm very interested in the fact that this prodigy secretly directed the Hong Kong branch of the Broad Group to sweep through the international financial markets, and I want to know more about the inside story."

"After these two days of investigation and research, I've discovered that that prodigy poses a far greater threat in the stock market than he does in the crude oil futures market, and he's making significantly more money..."

He briefly explained the reasons for leaving for Hong Kong Island ahead of schedule, as well as the action plan after arriving on Hong Kong Island.

Listening to his explanation, Lauder nodded repeatedly.
