Super Rich: Rebirth of the Top-Tier Rich Second Generation

"Alright, stop with the fighting all the time. Today is to celebrate our family's top scorer in the province."

Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming a bit too commercial and political, Third Aunt Jiang Linxue leaned back lazily in her chair, deliberately changed the subject, and looked at Jiang Yan with a hint of mockery.

"So, that actress whom our Xiao Yan would kick down the door to protect, is she very beautiful?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lin, the cousin who was sitting on the carpet playing games, immediately took off her headphones and came over as if a radar had received a signal, her eyes shining.

"Holy crap! Dude, that's amazing! You just graduated high school and you're already playing the hero saving the damsel in distress?"

"Isn't this progress a little too fast?"

Jiang Yao picked up her water glass and added insult to injury:

"It wasn't just about being a hero and saving a damsel in distress; it directly made the producer kneel on the ground and beg for mercy."

"You didn't see the producer's face later; it looked like he'd swallowed a dead fly."

With these few playful remarks, the originally somber atmosphere in the living room instantly dissipated, replaced by a relaxed and humorous atmosphere typical of family members.

Jiang Yan remained unmoved by the teasing from his elders and peers, simply replying:

"I happened to run into him at school at noon, so we know each other and I just took care of it."

Looking at her son's nonchalant demeanor, Lin Wantang felt a surge of admiration in her eyes.

Her biggest worry wasn't that her son would cause trouble outside, but that he would be blinded by women.

But just now, she keenly sensed that Jiang Yan did not bring the actress back to the old house, nor did he even intend to give her a ride back.

What does this tell us?

This indicates that her son possesses a clear sense of territory and class boundaries.

Unlike typical wealthy wives, Lin Wantang did not sternly warn her son against associating with actors in the entertainment industry.

She understands human nature too well; the more she suppresses, the more likely she is to provoke a rebellion among young people.

She simply looked at Jiang Yan and, in a tone almost like that of an equal, offered a gentle reminder:

"You're an adult now. Who you like, who you want to associate with, and even who you're with is your own freedom, and I won't interfere."

"But you must remember one thing."

"The Jiang family's threshold and the fleeting beauties outside are two different things."

"You can give them money, you can give them resources, and you can shelter them."

"But you need to distinguish between a playmate and a woman who can stand by your side and help you uphold the Jiang family's reputation."

Jiang Yan met his mother's gaze without flinching and calmly nodded: "Don't worry, Mom, I know what I'm doing."

Jiang Linzhou, who hadn't said much until now, put down his teacup and leaned forward slightly.

As a father, there are some things that he must say.

"It's normal for men to have desires when they're young."

"A man without desires cannot conquer this land before him." Jiang Linzhou's voice was deep and mellow, carrying the authority of his dual identity as a father and a regional governor.

"But the most terrifying thing is being led by the nose by desire."

"You can enjoy all the privileges you deserve, and you can conquer the women you want to conquer."

"But you must not lose control."

Jiang Linzhou stared into his son's eyes, each word carrying immense weight.

Jiang Yan raised his eyes, his eyes bearing a seven-tenths resemblance to Jiang Linzhou's, and met his father's gaze in mid-air.

In his past life, he experienced too much betrayal and scheming, and saw through the depravity of human nature. In this life, he holds immense power and a system, and his mindset has undergone a complete transformation.

"Dad, don't worry."

"I will not put anyone above my rules."

"I won't let any relationship control me."

In his eyes, women were never the weak point that controlled his emotions.

It was merely a spoil of war to adorn the throne.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Linzhou smiled with satisfaction.

"These words sound like something out of the Jiang family, like something out of the words of Jiang Linzhou's son."

The night was dark.

The old house's guest rooms were quiet, with only the ticking of the antique clock's second hand.

After taking a shower, Jiang Yan, wearing a silk bathrobe, leaned back in a large, carved mahogany chair.

He picked up his phone from the table, and an unread message popped up on the screen.

This is a complete incident handling briefing sent by Zhang Huilin.

[Young Master, all subsequent information has been verified and confirmed.]

All of Ma Yue's bank accounts were frozen by the Economic Crime Investigation Team an hour ago.

Upon learning the news, his three major investors convened a board meeting overnight and immediately signed a unilateral termination agreement.

[They even turned around and submitted evidence of Ma Yue's illegal operations to the public security authorities, attempting to completely absolve themselves of any responsibility.]

[From the production team where Li Yitong is working, director Chen and the executive producer contacted us, promising to guarantee all of Li Yitong's scenes and even offering to revise the script to add more memorable character moments.]

[Furthermore, a senior executive from Li Yitong's agency just inquired with me indirectly whether Li Yitong has managed to curry favor with any important figure on our side.]

In accordance with your style, I did not give any positive response.

Jiang Yan quickly scanned the briefing, then turned off the screen without giving any reply.

This is enough.

Ma Yue is not even qualified to be his opponent.

It was just an ant that was making a little noise by the roadside; once it was stepped on, that was that.

What really bothered Jiang Yan was the system notification sound that rang in his mind as the matter rapidly escalated.

[Ding! The system has detected that the host has completed the second stage of the "capital dimensional reduction attack" event!]

[Scope of Influence Determination: Participants in the private restaurant dinner, Beijing's film and television investment circle, the core directing team of a certain film crew, Li Yitong and his agency's senior management team.]

[Analysis of the weight of the affected targets: Those with assets ranging from tens of millions to hundreds of millions, possessing a certain degree of social influence and the ability to influence public opinion.]

[Congratulations, host! You have gained 1000 Delayed Influence Points!]

[Bonus reward triggered: 100000000.00 RMB cash deposited into your account!]

Hearing the electronic voice in his mind, Jiang Yan smiled.

Although these points are not as many as those that could intimidate the powerful figures in the Jiang family at the dinner table, the advantage lies in their extremely low cost.

He simply kicked down a door and sent a message, and easily gained a thousand points and ten million in cash.

He also gained Li Yitong's favor, which was a huge win.

Jiang Yan immediately and astutely grasped the underlying logic.

The entertainment industry, or more specifically, the celebrity circle.

The actual power within this circle is not high; in the face of truly top-tier powerful families, they are as fragile as glass.

However, this circle has advantages that ordinary industries cannot match: extremely fast dissemination speed, extremely high emotional density, and a massive fan base!

This means that as long as a fulcrum is slightly moved within this circle, creating a cognitive shock, it can immediately radiate to hundreds of millions of ordinary people.

"It seems that, in addition to the political, business and academic circles in Beijing, the glamorous entertainment industry is also a very suitable long-term hunting ground for me to rack up points."

Jiang Yan silently devised a new strategic plan in his mind.

Glamorous and beautiful, yet fragile and sensitive.

Perfect for accumulating points.
