Despite being incredibly wealthy, I want to be a prosecutor.

There are three days of no classes before the college entrance examination, so the candidates who are about to go to the battlefield can stay at home to check their knowledge and make up for their weaknesses.

Zhou Hong stayed at home with his parents.

The National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao) will be held from June 7th to 9th, and this is the first time it has been implemented this year.

During the three days of the college entrance examination, my mom prepared a variety of meals.

Like other test takers, Zhou Hong chatted with his parents every day about how the exam went.

On the morning of the last day of the college entrance examination, all subjects were tested.

I didn't attend the class reunion after the college entrance exam. I just called Zhang Xiaobao to say that I had something to do and that I would come back when the scores came out at the end of the month to fill out college applications.

Afterwards, Zhou Hong boarded a business van heading to the capital, and from there caught the last flight to Donghai.

There's only one flight a day from the city to Donghai, but it's in the morning, and the flight time has long passed.

……

"Ya Chu" was once a private club that offered monkey brain services.

Zhou Hong slowly sipped his tea, flipping through the documents on the Donghai assets that he had already received.

Du Jiacheng sat respectfully to the side. Taishun Trade has been officially renamed Hongye Trade (Donghai), which is wholly owned by Zhou Hong, and Du Jiacheng continues to serve as CEO.

Taishun Group has been split up. In Donghai, it has been divided into two parts. The main asset, Zhengtai Plaza, has been handed over to Zhengtai Property for operation.

The remaining assets are managed by Hongye Trading (Donghai).

This includes properties owned in East Coast Hong Kong Plaza.

The South Tower of Hong Kong Plaza has 38 floors. The ground floor is a shopping mall, floors 6-30 are office space, and floors 31-38 are serviced apartments.

The former Taishun Company also leased office space here, and also owned 36 hotel-style apartments, which were originally intended for Xiangguo's senior executives and management. Now they are all vacant and operated by Hongye Trading (Donghai).

"Mr. Hong, here is your new ID card." Du Jiacheng handed over an envelope with both hands.

For the sake of convenience, Zhou Hong moved his household registration to Donghai and now owns property. In Beijing and Shanghai, it is relatively easy to transfer household registration, not to mention Zhou Hong's huge investment. He is the kind of special person who would try to bring someone in even if they didn't want to settle down, by using various preferential conditions.

"Return to 86." Zhou Hong put down the documents and stood up.

86 is what Zhou Hong refers to in his apartment on the 86th floor of the Jinsheng Building.

This means that Zhou Hong owns more than half of the 86th floor of the Jinsheng Building, a super luxury residence of 2000 square meters.

Zhou Hong knew that most of the 86-story residential building in his previous life had been repurchased by Jinsheng Group during this period and handed over to Kailuo Group for joint operation.

Now, its sudden emergence has made the 86-story residential building seem like an anomaly in the Jinsheng Building.

Because from the 53rd to the 87th floors of the building, apart from its own residential units, the Jinsheng Group has handed over the management of the American hotel group, Kailuo Group, and the two parties have signed a 20-year contract.

That is, the extremely famous "Jinsheng Junle Hotel".

Junle Hotel is a first-tier brand under the Kailu Hotel Group, which is a luxury five-star hotel brand.

This collaboration has become a model, namely the "local owner + foreign hotel management" model.

The fact that Jinsheng Group owns half of the 86th floor was negotiated with Jinsheng Group by its "good brother" Xin before the cooperation between Jinsheng Group and Kailuo Group. At that time, it was very important for Jinsheng Group to repatriate foreign exchange, because Jinsheng was a state-owned enterprise and had to obey the spirit of the superior's documents. Moreover, with this deal, the plan to turn the top few floors into luxury hotel-style apartments also came into the view of the higher-ups. If the transaction amount of half of the 86th floor is considered, and the top few floors can be sold at roughly the same price, then the Jinsheng Building, with a total investment of US$5.5 million, can recoup most of its investment.

However, the American hotel brand KELA Group soon began to contact Jinsheng Group. In addition, it is extremely rare for a hotel apartment to be offered a price by a "good brother" letter. Therefore, the negotiations between Jinsheng and KELA Group went smoothly. Half of the 53rd to 86th floors and the entire 87th floor were handed over to the Grand Hotel for operation. However, the 88th floor observation deck was not relinquished. Since it involves the sightseeing project of the tallest building after the reform and opening up, which ordinary citizens and even tourists from outside mainland China can enjoy, Jinsheng Group chose to operate it itself.

Today, the Jinsheng Building is the tallest skyscraper in China.

After Kailu Group officially moved into Jinsheng Building, it wasn't that they didn't talk to their "good brother". Jinsheng Group also wanted to repurchase the ownership of this half floor of the 86th floor, but their "good brother" always disagreed with the price they offered.

Of course, if I hadn't suddenly intervened, the ownership of half a floor of the 86th floor would definitely have been repurchased by Jinsheng Group for less than $2000 million.

"Good brother" Xin is truly a hardcore gamer who prioritizes enjoyment. If it weren't for him, he would have lost everything in the Zhengtai Plaza deal alone.

However, the ancestors of this "good brother" must have been extremely wealthy.

A Bentley 728 extended limousine slowly drove into the underground parking lot of Jinsheng Building. Near the elevator, there was Zhou Hong's private garage, which contained three cars: a Bentley 728, a Mercedes-Benz SL600, and a Lamborghini Murciélago E-Gear that he had just received.

Lamborghini Murciélago E - Gear. Murciélago means bat in Spanish, and is also the name of an extremely brave fighting bull.

It is the last item received from the "good brother" in the transaction.

When I arrived in Hong Kong a while ago, I was seen wearing the sign of the Xiangguo Embassy.

The reason is simple: embassy vehicles are exempt from customs duties.

The price paid to Zhou Hong was only slightly cheaper after including all taxes, amounting to 680 million RMB.

Zhou Hong didn't care, but Jiaqianjie Caigong Lihua gritted her teeth. If she had enough time to negotiate, she could definitely cut the price down. It would be too lenient for Taishun Group not to fleece them twice over. Especially after learning that her boss was the real financial backer, and that the other party had collapsed, her boss, the financial backer, was there to rescue them from the predicament of many related stakeholders. He was their real father.

……

While Jin Shazai was parking in his space, Zhou Hong entered the elevator.

The only inconvenience of getting to 86 is that you have to change elevators twice.

First, take the elevator from the underground parking garage to the 54th floor, which is also the lobby of the Grand Harbour Hotel.

Then I took the elevator from the 54th floor to the 85th floor, and then got off and took the elevator from the side that runs between the 85th and 87th floors.

The 85th floor houses the hotel's two presidential suites and some diplomatic suites.

Therefore, the current brand of Junle is actually not as good as that of Four Seasons Hotel. The presidential suite of Four Seasons Hotel is the real presidential suite, occupying an entire floor and offering various special services.

The Presidential Suite at the Grand Hyatt is more like a presidential suite for ordinary people, and of course, the price is also more affordable, at $3100, which is only 60% of the price of a suite at the Four Seasons Hotel.

The 86th floor now has more than half of its floors belonging to Zhou Hong, while the other half is a members-only entrepreneur club that provides services such as catering to its members.

However, it wasn't managed very well, and later it became a very famous Chinese restaurant that claimed to be the best in the world for Shanghainese cuisine.

Even now, this entrepreneurs' club remains quite high-end in terms of management, internal services, and membership system.

Zhou Hong, who owned half a floor of the 86th floor and refused to sublet it to them, thus becoming a "thorn in the side" of the Kailuo Group, also received considerable courtesy from the Kailuo Group.

Not only was I invited to become a member of the Entrepreneurs Club, but I also received the "Lifetime Globalist" membership of the Kailuo Group, which is the highest level of Kailuo membership.

Kailu Group members are divided into five levels: Ordinary Member, Explorer, Adventurer, Globalist, and Lifetime Globalist.

As for regular members, anyone who has ever stayed at a hotel under the Kailuo Group becomes a regular member.

For other levels, you earn points through spending.

Lifetime Globalist members need to accumulate 1 million points, and for every US dollar spent on accommodation, they can earn 5 points.

In other words, you need to accumulate $20 in spending at hotels under the Kyrgyzstan Group to obtain lifetime Globalist membership.

Zhou Hong had never spent money at a hotel under the Kailuo Group before, but he didn't refuse their kindness and filled out a membership form.

The 87th floor above is a bar corridor, with cocktail bars, wine bars, and other establishments offering Western food services, but the prices are not affordable for the average citizen.

After getting off the elevator on the 86th floor, Zhou Hong walked a few steps down the south corridor and came to a semi-transparent blue crystal glass wall. He swiped his card, and the glass wall slowly receded to the side.

After Zhou Hong and Jin Shazai entered, the glass door slowly closed.

The southern half of the floor owned by Zhou Hong is laid out like a suite complex.

The main suite is over 1200 square meters, and to the left and right of the main suite are three 80-square-meter view suites.

The access control for suites A and B is located near the elevator. Jin Shazai lives in suite A, suite B is vacant, and suite C is occupied by four female security guards hired from a Chinese security company. These four female security guards usually stay at home to guard the house.

To the left of the main suite are suites D, E, and F. Suite D is occupied by "Twenty-One Flowers" who stayed behind in Donghai. Suite E is vacant. Suite F is occupied by several service staff who are responsible for various internal services of 86.

Both AB and DE have doors connecting to the main suite, but they are currently locked from the inside by the main suite.

The master suite's living room boasts a view of over 200 square meters, with a semi-circular deep blue glass wall on the south side that surrounds the entire room, creating a magnificent atmosphere.

Standing in front of the glass wall, overlooking the river and city views, a sense of pride will rise up involuntarily.

The hall was decorated in a snow-white tone, with thick white carpets. Zhou Hong especially liked the feeling of walking barefoot on them.

As night falls, the East China Sea Metropolis is ablaze with lights, neon signs shimmering. Standing atop the city's highest peak, one truly has a panoramic view.

Jinsheng Building is now not only the tallest building in Donghai, but also the tallest building in mainland China, and the third tallest skyscraper in the world.

Several years from now, skyscrapers comparable to Jinsheng Building will appear around it. For now, it stands alone, while the Oriental Pearl Tower in the distance is a beautiful sight, its colors changing in the night.

Although the Oriental Pearl Tower is slightly taller, it is essentially a signal transmission tower and is not ranked in terms of height compared to other buildings.

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window, Zhou Hong was soothed by the view that it seemed to clear his mind. He pondered his upcoming trip to the Northwest and gradually fell into deep thought.

……

In his study, Zhou Hong went online and sent an email to Fang Ting, the "Hope" representative.

I'll go there tomorrow to inspect the conditions for building a factory. Also, there's the matter of registering a charitable foundation in the Northwest.

Fang Ting is online on QQ right now, I'll reply immediately.

"By the way, what are your chances of success with Anxia County?" Zhou Hong typed.

Recently, Zhou Hong discovered that registering a charitable foundation worth hundreds of millions of yuan in China is now too troublesome. Moreover, there are many other issues involved, such as relevant departments wanting to gain control over such a large sum of money.

Finally, Fang Ting made a suggestion, saying that it would be better to have a smaller registered capital and register the charity foundation directly in a poverty-stricken county, as county-level charity foundations are easier to negotiate.

She also helped contact Anxia County.

This old revolutionary base area, a poor county, is notorious for its extreme poverty, with children in the mountainous region suffering from extreme poverty.

Moreover, nowadays, even for non-public foundations, approvals are reportedly processed quickly at the city level, so it's necessary to expedite the process.

Zhou Hong plans to register a 500 million yuan non-public fundraising charity foundation in Anxia County.

So-called non-public fundraising charitable foundations are those that do not have the authority to raise funds from the public and can only receive private funding from their own contributors.

The registered capital is only 5 million yuan because the current regulations for charitable foundations stipulate that the annual expenditure on charitable activities cannot be less than 6% of the foundation's net assets at the end of the previous year.

Therefore, Zhou Hong set the registered capital to be relatively small, and the specific funds for charity could be injected annually, which would give him more freedom.

The main purpose is to do charity work, not to deduct or avoid taxes, so there's no need for gimmicks like registered capital; just do genuine charity work.

Moreover, the system also covers all taxes, which is practically comprehensive protection.

"Actually, my father is the deputy county head of Anxia County in charge of civil affairs," Fang Ting said naturally.

Zhou Hong was stunned. Fang Ting continued, "However, my father is a very upright man. Although I talked to him about your matter, he is still skeptical. There are many people who use impoverished counties for publicity and to swindle money, especially so-called rich people. They all have various motives and very few people truly care about the poor."

Zhou Hong coughed and said, "You know I've long since distanced myself from those low-level, money-grubbing interests."

"I don't know..." Fang Ting shook her head and chuckled, "Actually, I believe you're genuinely here to do good deeds, so I think you can succeed."

Zhou Hong understood that if he was truly doing charity work, with her father's help, things would succeed; otherwise, her father was also very perceptive.

"Then I'm relieved." Zhou Hong nodded gently, then suddenly typed after thinking for a moment: "Have you ever thought about quitting your job to do charity work with me? There seems to be a lot to do in the Northwest, including the fact that I'll probably be building a few large factories."

Are various overseas charitable foundations and factories dedicated to producing charitable donations all located in the Northwest?

It utilizes charitable funds from other countries, and the charitable products are indeed sent to various countries, but it also boosts employment in the Northwest, doesn't it?

It's certainly not cost-effective, but that's not within my consideration.

Therefore, such a large operation would be ideally supervised by a morally upright and idealistic person.

Fang Ting was silent for a moment before saying, "Let's talk in person."

"Okay!" Of course, you should give people time to consider.
