The system only arrives when you're old? Then let's create a super-rich family!

As this deep and authoritative voice fell, the entire hall instantly stirred, and everyone inside and outside the hall turned around to look towards the entrance.

A steady and upright figure walked slowly towards them.

The man who came was over fifty years old, but he did not look old at all. On the contrary, he was full of energy and had a commanding presence. He was none other than Sun Wei, who was in his prime and at the peak of his career.

Beside him was a bespectacled, serious-looking secretary, and behind him were several bodyguards in black, their steps steady.

Sun Wei, exuding the imposing aura of a superior, stepped into the arena, instantly silencing the noisy hall.

The faces of the wealthy men from Jiangnan present changed drastically upon seeing this.

Although they had known the Sun family would send someone and were mentally prepared, the moment they saw Sun Wei, their eyes were filled with extreme shock and fear.

"It was actually Commander Sun himself who came! I thought it would be the young master of the Sun family who showed up."

"If I remember correctly, the Sun family of Donghai has a market value of over 900 billion, and Sun Wei's personal net worth is a full 90 billion! The Xiao family, which ranks first in Jiangnan Province, has a market value of only over 600 billion, and Xiao Mingyuan's net worth is only 60 billion. They are not even in the same league as the Sun family!"

"It's not just a matter of being on different levels. Anyone with a bit of knowledge in the industry knows that the Sun family, relying on the unique port advantages of Donghai and the country's key support for foreign trade policies, has firmly monopolized most of Donghai's foreign trade industry. Now, they are only one step away from a market value of one trillion! Once they break through one trillion, the Sun family will be able to rank among the fifth-largest top-tier wealthy families in the country, sitting at the same table as the four families in Beijing!"

"What's most terrifying is that Sun Wei is only fifty-three years old, in the prime of his life, with a lot of potential for future growth!"

Someone continued to recount the terrifying resources of the Sun family, their voices filled with barely suppressed awe.

"The Song family, ranked second in the East China Sea, has a net worth difference of 30 billion between Song Jin and Sun Wei, a significant gap indeed. No wonder they are revered as the overlords of the East China Sea!"

"Besides foreign trade, the Sun family is also involved in clothing, food, housing, transportation, high technology, and industry and people's livelihood. They are either number one or number two in their respective industries."

"The Sun family owns a vast array of businesses, from high-end bespoke clothing to mass-market luxury brands; in food, they have chain restaurants and a pre-prepared food supply chain, controlling fresh ingredients from multiple sources; in housing, they have luxury sea-view residences, star-rated hotels, and commercial complexes; and in transportation, they have a high-end car club and ocean shipping logistics. The East China Sea is practically overflowing with Sun family assets!"

"In addition, the Sun family holds top-tier domestic control over cutting-edge industries such as precision manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and optoelectronics, and even has a presence in the supply of some military components. Their political and business connections are deeply entrenched!"

In contrast, the Qin family has a Zhenshi Group with a registered capital of 30 billion yuan and a Yunding Building.

The company has over 110 billion yuan in assets, which looks impressive, but they are all newly acquired assets. The family has no real businesses, no family background, and no connections.

"The Xiao family, with a market value of over 600 billion, doesn't dare to raise their head in front of the Sun family. The Qin family, with assets of over 100 billion on paper, dares to steal the Sun family's plane? They're practically courting death!"

Countless whispers mingled together, yet each word clearly reached the ears of everyone present, revealing an insurmountable chasm laid bare between the Qin and Sun families.

The way everyone looked at the Qin family members in the main seat was as if they were looking at a group of dead people.

Sun Wei's gaze swept across the room indifferently, finally settling on Qin Zheng, who sat calmly on the mahogany sofa. He spoke slowly and deliberately, his voice steady and powerful.

"You must be Qin Zheng, the head of the Qin family?"

He didn't give Qin Zheng a chance to reply, and said condescendingly:

"I've heard that your Qin family has been riding high lately. Relying on your money, you've started a conglomerate, bought a high-rise building, and become arrogant. You even dared to steal the private jet that my Sun family had reserved."

The first half of the sentence was just a plain statement, but the volume of the second half suddenly increased, revealing its sharp edge.

"What my Sun family of the East Sea has set its sights on, no one in the world has ever dared to interfere. Your Qin family is the first."

"Truly arrogant beyond belief, utterly ignorant of their own mortality!"

The atmosphere instantly plummeted to freezing point, and the entire venue fell silent.

These words moved many of the wealthy and powerful people present.

The Qin family's purchase of the Cloud Top Building for 80 billion yuan and the registration of Zhenshi Group with 30 billion yuan in paid-in capital are top-tier financial resources in Jiangnan, but in the eyes of the East China Sea overlord, they are simply not enough.

Upon hearing of the Sun family's formidable power, Sun Wei's sudden high-pitched voice startled the Qin family members.

Qin Jianjun's face was tense, and he looked slightly uneasy. Qin Mao clenched his fists unconsciously, Qin Zihao frowned, and the others all looked worried.

Only Qin Zheng sat upright on the sofa, his expression remaining calm and unmoved.

He slightly raised his eyes and said calmly:

"So what? What my Qin family wants, I will give it to you, and that is what makes it yours. If I don't give it to you, no one can take it away."

Sun Wei's face instantly darkened, and the smile on his face vanished.

He never expected that Qin Zheng would remain so tough and unyielding even when the Sun family of Donghai came to question him.

Fang Rui and Qin Zheng remained seated, but immediately stepped forward and sternly rebuked:

"How dare you! The head of the Sun family is of high seniority and holds a prominent position. In terms of experience and reputation, he far surpasses you. How dare you sit down and speak so disrespectfully, showing no manners or etiquette whatsoever!"

Zou Chengfeng also stepped forward half a step and said sarcastically:

"Qin Zheng, your Qin family is on the verge of death, yet you still show no remorse. If you kneel down and beg Patriarch Sun to spare your life, it might not be too late!"

Seeing this, the surrounding wealthy people from Jiangnan nodded in agreement, and the rising and falling accusations pushed the Qin family to the forefront of public opinion.

In everyone's eyes, the Qin family at this moment is like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, courting death.

After everyone had finished reprimanding him, Sun Wei waved his hand lightly. Once the hall was silent, he looked arrogantly at Qin Zheng, his tone carrying a warning:

"Sudden wealth can easily breed arrogance. But you must understand that there are always people more powerful than you. The Dragon Kingdom is full of powerful families and countless wealthy clans. Even a small place like Jiangnan is not a place where you can run rampant."

Given Sun Wei's status as the head of a powerful family in Donghai, such a lecture would have made any ordinary family head feel uneasy and immediately bow his head in apology.

But Qin Zheng simply shook his head, then coldly snorted:

"Let alone Jiangnan, looking at all sectors of the country, the Qin family has always acted by buying what we like. You, Sun Wei, are not qualified to lecture the Qin family."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall paled.

"Too arrogant and conceited!"

"Ignorant and arrogant!"

"So arrogant and disrespectful!"

Fang Rui's face was cold as he spoke in a deep voice:

"I'm genuinely curious, what gives you the audacity to be so arrogant, to look down on all the powerful families, and to openly defy the Sun family head? Leaving aside my Fang family, the Zou family, and the Song family, the Ding family and the Sun family could easily crush the Qin family. Do you think that with your 30 billion yuan group capital and a single skyscraper, you can act so arrogantly in front of all these established tycoons?"

Everyone present nodded in agreement.

Although the Qin family has been spending lavishly recently, their rise to power is still relatively recent.

In the eyes of established wealthy families, they are nothing more than newly rich forces who have suddenly become wealthy, with no real foundation whatsoever.

If the Qin family hadn't repeatedly demonstrated their considerable wealth, no one would have considered them on the same level.

The secretary beside Sun Wei pushed up his glasses and slowly began to explain the Qin family's background.

"What you may not know is that the Qin family relies solely on the Zhenshi Group, which has a registered capital of 30 billion, and the Yunding Building, which cost 80 billion. Apart from these visible assets, the Qin family has no other businesses."

He glanced around and, seeing no officials present, added, "And no connections whatsoever."

As soon as he finished speaking, he laid bare the meager financial situation of the Qin family to all the wealthy people present.

Compared to established tycoons with market capitalizations in the hundreds of billions and decades of accumulated wealth, the Qin family, with only a few hundred billion in paper assets, no real business, no connections, and no foundation, is truly like a rootless duckweed, which would be completely overturned by the slightest gust of wind.

Upon hearing this, the crowd's expressions shifted from spectator to disdain.

They had assumed the Qin family had some hidden wealth, which was why they had come to curry favor with them.

With only around 100 billion in publicly disclosed assets, they certainly don't qualify as top-tier wealthy families.

I had initially wondered if the Qin family had some hidden trump cards, but now it seems they only have cards on the surface, and they have no chance of winning at all.
