The Great Sage Returns from Ten Years of Imprisonment

Chapter 289 The Art of Exchanging Benefits

Lingyun was even busier this Sunday because of the G7 Group's major market rescue measures.

The two originally scheduled high-level meetings were extended by about half an hour each to discuss the newly released G7 bailout plan!

Just after 4 p.m., the second meeting ended, and Lingyun was called to the lake again to give a short briefing!

The people being reported to were several SZ executives, including Vice President Wang and his direct superiors.

The report focused on the G7's bailout efforts and discussed domestic financial market response strategies.

Several SZs know that Ling Yun was the one who proposed the guiding principles for this market rescue operation, and they all attach great importance to the relevant response strategies he put forward.

The impromptu briefing finally ended at 5:30 p.m.

Several SZs stood up one after another, came to Ling Yun's side, patted him on the shoulder a few times, praised him, and then left the conference room!

When it was Vice President Wang's turn, he gave him a few special instructions.

"Regarding the debt dispute between Grand Investment and Goldman Sachs and Barclays, the US and UK governments have privately stated that they will exert some pressure on these two top financial institutions."

"In this way, the chances of resolving this matter smoothly increase greatly. Of course, Yuanda Investment will also have to make some concessions. It's unrealistic to expect to get all the profits from the bet."

Ling Yun was instantly overjoyed and hurriedly expressed his gratitude.

"Thank you for your concern, SZ. It's just a small matter between me and Yuanda Investment, and I'm truly grateful for your attention. I'm unworthy of such kindness!"

"As for making certain concessions, we already have a strategy in place. With such a huge amount of debt under this betting agreement, we would be extremely fortunate to receive more than 50% of the returns!"

Upon hearing this, Vice President Wang's eyes showed even greater admiration.

"Very good. When it comes to financial investment, you can't just focus on the amount of profit; you should start considering the exchange of benefits."

"This includes both immediate and long-term interests, as well as interests at the company level, industry level, and national level..."

After chatting for a few more minutes, Vice President Wang took the initiative to end the discussion.

Then he left the meeting room to attend to his own work.

Ling Yun, along with Director Li from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission and Director Zhang from the National Development and Reform Commission, left the meeting room together, accompanied by Deputy Director Zhang.

As soon as they left the conference room, Deputy Director Zhang called Ling Yun aside and whispered a few things to her.

"The third round of talks between Yuanda Investment and Goldman Sachs and Barclays will be held next Wednesday. Taking this opportunity, relevant departments will launch a crackdown."

"Those business spies bribed by Goldman Sachs and hiding in mainland China and Hong Kong will be rounded up on Wednesday. This is a small warning to Goldman Sachs."

"Besides, someone will secretly contact that guy Lold and put pressure on him again. The pressure worked quite well last time, it's time to take it a step further."

As he explained, Ling Yun's lips quickly curled into a smile.

After Deputy Director Zhang finished speaking, he immediately nodded with a smile.

"Great! With a multi-pronged approach, we won't have to worry about those bastards like Goldman Sachs and Barclays bowing down."

"If they remain stubborn and refuse to pay, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

"At that time, I will anonymously release a series of negative news about them, and launch more short-selling attacks on them in the international financial market."

"Tsk tsk, you're really ruthless!"

Deputy Director Zhang smiled and remarked, then changed the subject.

"Your identity is sensitive and special, as are Director Li and the others. It's best if we don't all go to the Poly Theatre to see the play later."

"Go to the Poly Theatre first and wait in the reception room. We can go separately. You don't need to come out to greet us; just meet in the reception room."

"Alright! This arrangement is definitely better."

Ling Yun nodded with a smile.

After a few more words of discussion, they ended their conversation and walked towards where Director Li and his group were.

Five or six minutes later, Ling Yun drove out of the west gate of Haizi alone.

Then I switched to my own car and drove straight to the Poly Theatre located on Dongsi Shitiao.

As soon as I got on the bus, Leilei, who had been waiting inside, immediately handed me a bag.

"Put on this coat. The one you're wearing is too somber and not suitable for tonight's play premiere."

"Aren't you going backstage to meet everyone later? This outfit is more approachable and won't put too much pressure on them."

"Okay, this outfit I'm wearing is a bit too formal."

Ling Yun smiled and nodded, then casually took the bag.

Then he took out a new Armani casual suit from the bag and changed into it right there in the car.

During this time, Leilei gave a briefing on the preparations for the theater.

Due to time constraints, Lingyun could only grab a quick bite in the theater's VIP lounge for dinner, where Jia Jingwen had already prepared everything.

The security personnel arranged by Lingyun have all arrived and have successfully taken over the security tasks at the theater, and are conducting a thorough search inside and outside the theater.

Then there's the issue of Da Meiyuan's parents and Lei Lei's parents. They'll be heading to the theater together to watch this avant-garde play.

When Lingyun interacts with Da Meiyuan later, he must be careful to maintain the appropriate level of intimacy and not give himself away!

Listening to Leilei's introduction, Lingyun nodded repeatedly.

In the blink of an eye, it was 7:15 PM.

Poly Theatre.

Only fifteen minutes remain until the premiere of the avant-garde experimental play "Hamlet".

By this time, many audience members who had come to see the play had entered the theater and sat down in their seats, some chatting and laughing in hushed tones, others discussing the plot while looking at the play poster.

In the ninth row, Yang Mi sat side by side with Liu Shishi and several other beautiful female roommates, chatting animatedly.

There were many people from Starlight Culture Company on their left and right sides, as well as in the two rows in front and behind them.

The group included company management and some staff, as well as many of the company's contracted artists.

Some of them are already famous, having worked their way up in the entertainment industry for many years, while others are newcomers, still greenhorns!

Without a doubt, Jiao Junyan and her group were fresh-faced newcomers who had just joined Starlight Culture!

Although Yang Mi and Liu Shishi are not signed artists with Starlight Culture, they are also invited guests tonight because they know Yanzi and introduced Jiao Junyan and others to Starlight Culture!

Like Jiao Junyan and the others, there were a few other newcomers in this row, mostly from the three performing arts schools: Beijing Film Academy, Central Academy of Drama, and Shanghai Theatre Academy.

They included both men and women, including several of Yang Mi's seniors and juniors, who were mostly handsome men and beautiful women!

Several popular artists under Starlight Culture sat in the third row, along with other first- and second-tier artists who came to watch the premiere.

The second row forward is occupied by CEOs of various film and television companies, top-tier artists, and leaders from relevant cultural and film-related government departments.

While the theater lights were still on, Jiao Junyan and the others excitedly looked around and whispered among themselves.

"Where is our company's mysterious big boss? There are a few handsome guys in the front row, but they're all established male celebrities in the entertainment industry; they're clearly not the boss!"

"The big boss probably hasn't arrived yet. Didn't you see the first row is all empty? This play was funded by the company, so of course the boss sits in the first row."

"I wonder who the other empty seats in the first row are for? Look over there, the presidents of the Central Academy of Drama and the Beijing Film Academy are in the second row."

As she spoke, Zhang Xiaofei pointed to the two principals sitting in the second row.

Following the direction of her finger, the women all looked over.

The next moment, Yang Mi smiled and whispered:

"Your big boss probably hasn't arrived yet. Given his wealth and status, he'll naturally be sitting in the middle of the first row watching the play."

"I happened to overhear a few words last night; this big boss seems to have an unfathomable background and immense power..."

Just then, a sweet voice suddenly came from behind.

"Hello, senior sisters! What a coincidence that you're here to see this avant-garde play!"

"brush!"

Yang Mi and the others all turned to look.

At just one glance, they were all amazed by their beauty.
