Returning to his senior year of high school, he went all in and made billions by buying at the botto

the next morning.

County Party Committee Building.

Zhou Mingyuan did not meet him in the formal conference room, but instead invited Chen Mo into his office.

There was only a pot of tea on the coffee table; there was no secretary or other department heads present.

"Mr. Chen, please have a seat."

Zhou Mingyuan personally poured him a cup of tea.

"Secretary Zhou, you're too kind."

The two sat facing each other.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Zhou Mingyuan got straight to the point.

"The situation at the gold mine in the eastern suburbs has been temporarily stabilized by the county government."

"The provincial geological team is conducting supplementary exploration, and the transportation bureau's industrial road plan has also completed its first round of feasibility studies."

"However, the reason I invited Mr. Chen here today is not just to talk about gold mines."

Zhou Mingyuan spread a map of Jiangcheng County's industries on the coffee table: "You said in the closed-door meeting that the East Suburb Gold Mine is just the beginning."

"I'd like to hear what Jiangcheng County should look like in the future, in your eyes."

Chen Mo looked down at the map.

The eastern suburbs mining area, the southern suburbs industrial park, the county town logistics corridor, and large tracts of undeveloped industrial land.

These areas have been connected by lines of different colors.

Clearly, Zhou Mingyuan has been keeping busy lately.

"Gold mines can only bring in fiscal revenue for a period of time."

Chen Mo said, "Resources will eventually run out. If a place relies solely on selling minerals, it may be rich for ten or twenty years at most, but it cannot truly establish an industrial foundation."

"The true core of Jiangcheng County is not gold."

"Sidetech".

Zhou Mingyuan's eyes narrowed slightly.

"The fluorochemical company that Xingchen Technology invested in?"

"right."

Chen Mo pointed to the South Suburb Industrial Park on the map.

"Jiangcheng County is surrounded by fluorite resources, has low land and labor costs, and is close to major transportation routes. Deer Technology already has the technical foundation for high-purity electronic-grade hydrofluoric acid and fine fluorine chemicals."

"As long as the path is right, it can connect upstream to fluorite mining and basic fluorochemicals, and downstream to semiconductor materials, fluoropolymers, lithium battery electrolytes and new energy materials."

"This is not a factory."

"It is the seed of a complete industrial chain."

Zhou Mingyuan leaned forward slightly: "What scale do you think it can achieve?"

"With Deertech as a whole, it could achieve a market value of tens of billions in the future."

"The industrial cluster formed around it has the potential to reach hundreds of billions, or even more."

The office fell silent.

If an ordinary entrepreneur said such a thing, Zhou Mingyuan would only think that the other party was packaging the project and trying to win policy support.

But Chen Mo is hardly a normal person.

He had to seriously consider this possibility.

"What does the county need to do?" Zhou Mingyuan asked.

"Resource integration, land reserves, and infrastructure"

Chen Mo said, "We need to thoroughly understand the fluorite resources in the county and surrounding areas in advance to avoid disorderly mining by small mines. In the future, we can coordinate and prioritize the use of resources to serve the local industrial chain."

"Industrial land around the South Suburb Industrial Park needs to be planned in advance. Don't wait until companies arrive and then temporarily acquire land, because then the costs and obstacles will increase exponentially."

"In addition, wastewater treatment, hazardous chemical transportation, energy supply, fire protection and environmental protection must all be constructed in accordance with the standards of large-scale chemical industrial parks."

Zhou Mingyuan tapped the map lightly with his fingers, lost in thought.

After a long while, he raised his head.

"How about the county establishes a city investment company?"

This time, it was Chen Mo's turn to be surprised.

Zhou Mingyuan continued, "Jiangcheng County Urban Construction Investment Company will be established through joint investment from the county's finances, land reserves, and some high-quality state-owned assets."

"The city investment company is responsible for land preparation, road and pipeline network construction, sewage treatment and standard factory construction in the industrial park, and will also establish an industrial investment platform."

"The county will not directly interfere with the operation of Deer Technology, but it can proactively introduce upstream and downstream enterprises around Deer Technology."

"The 15% of the local revenue from the gold mine can also be injected into the city investment company in accordance with the law in the future, as industrial infrastructure and investment funds."

"If we're going to do it, we can't just grant a few plots of land and build a road to one company."

"We must mobilize the entire county to truly develop the fluorochemical industry chain."

Looking at the county party secretary in front of him, Chen Mo felt a sense of admiration for the first time.

He originally just wanted the county to provide policy and infrastructure support.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Mingyuan planned to directly establish a city investment platform to integrate gold mine revenue, land resources, and local credit.

This kind of courage is far beyond what ordinary county-level officials possess.

No wonder he was able to reach such a position in his previous life.

"Secretary Zhou's plan is more comprehensive than I expected."

Chen Mo picked up his teacup: "If the county can really do these things, Xingchen Technology is willing to cooperate."

"Deer Technology's future expansion will prioritize Jiangcheng County, and Xingchen Technology can also jointly establish an industrial fund with the city investment company to invest in upstream and downstream enterprises."

A hint of joy flashed in Zhou Mingyuan's eyes: "With President Chen's words, I feel more at ease."

The two talked for nearly two hours about the urban investment structure, industrial park land, gold mine revenue, and industrial funds.

Before the conversation ended, Chen Mo suddenly put down his teacup.

"Secretary Zhou, there's another personal matter."

"Please speak."

"I already know that my parents have been transferred to the county hospital."

Zhou Mingyuan remained calm: "Both comrades' resumes and professional abilities meet the requirements. The organization department is simply conducting a normal talent selection process."

"I see."

Chen Mo didn't expose him: "My parents are just ordinary medical workers. They like their peaceful life now and don't know what I'm doing outside."

"I hope that no one will bother them because of my affairs in the future."

The office was quiet for a moment.

Zhou Mingyuan understood what he meant.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen."

Zhou Mingyuan solemnly stated, "The county only considers the two comrades' work abilities. Outside of work, no one will disturb their lives."

"Thank you, Secretary Zhou."

Their eyes met.

A certain unspoken understanding was thus formed.

……

In the following period, Jiangcheng County entered a period of rapid development.

The county government held multiple special meetings.

The preparatory plan for Jiangcheng County Investment Company was formally placed on the agenda of the Standing Committee.

Departments such as finance, land, transportation, environmental protection, and investment promotion have begun to revise the plan for the South Suburb Industrial Park.

Deer Technology has acquired its second batch of industrial land.

German equipment is gradually arriving on site.

Liu Ming and Zhang Hai, along with their technical team, practically lived in the laboratory.

Feiyu Real Estate first suspended some ordinary residential projects and shifted its engineering efforts to standard factory buildings and supporting living areas in the industrial park.

Construction officially began on the industrial road in the eastern suburbs.

Large construction machinery advanced along the barren mountains, and the originally muddy and narrow rural roads were gradually widened into industrial channels capable of carrying heavy mining trucks.

Liu Xin, along with the core team of Longxin Group, took over Xiling Mining overnight.

Historical accounts, mining rights documents, export contracts, and production equipment were sealed and verified item by item.

The asset restructuring of Xingxin Mining is also quietly underway, driven by lawyers and accounting firms.

Xingchen Technology holds 50% of the shares, Chen Mo personally holds 28%, and Longxin Group holds 22%.

Gold and rare earth elements are being integrated into the same resource platform.

The information has not yet been made public.

However, after seeing the new asset valuation report, Huaguo Bank quickly upgraded Xingxin Mining's credit rating.

At the same time, Douyin Group officially completed its registration in the provincial capital's high-tech zone.

Xingchen Technology invested 100 million yuan, acquiring a 60% stake.

ByteDance contributed its algorithm and technology licensing, along with the core team led by Zhang Nan, to acquire a 35% stake.

Chen Liping holds 5% of the shares.

All of Yunfan Software's developers have moved to the new R&D center.

Upon arriving in the provincial capital, Zhang Nan immediately overturned the original, overly traditional development approach. Following the product architecture left by Chen Mo, she divided the team into five groups: shooting tools, content distribution, user growth, music copyright, and recommendation algorithms.

The first product prototype gradually took shape through countless debates and revisions.

In Kyoto, the net asset value of Taichu No. 1 continued to climb.

Securities firms, insurance companies, infrastructure companies, and internet finance companies all saw their stocks rise in turn.

The product's net asset value has broken through 1.50 from 1.43.

Faced with the continuous influx of additional subscriptions, Zhao Qiang strictly followed Chen Mo's instructions, closed the subscription channel, and began to formulate a large-scale exit plan.

At school, Chen Mo was still frequently absent.

Yet, in every mock exam, his name remained firmly in first place.

Liu Jianguo went from being anxious at the beginning to being completely numb.

He was already thankful as long as Chen Mo didn't drop out of school.

Su Qingyan would occasionally turn around and look at the empty seat in the back row.

She didn't press Chen Mo further about what he was busy with.

He simply puts the test papers and review materials that the teacher gives him into his desk every day.

Wen Zhixia would occasionally send messages.

Most of the time, they just shared the weather in Kyoto, the results of Chen Jing's competition, or reminded him to wear his scarf.

Lu Jingyi stayed in Hong Kong to oversee due diligence on Chuangsheng Investment Company and Jianing Holdings.

After all three investment banks had their trading permissions activated, she quickly realized that Chen Mo was gradually increasing his position in the Swiss franc.

She didn't press the matter. She simply handed over all of her $60 million to Chen Mo for management, as agreed.

Time has quietly slipped into the new year.
