Jingpin Hui (Second Update)

On the way, Fan Yu checked in for the day.

"Ding! Check-in successful. You have obtained the property rights to Nanjing Commercial Street."

Hearing the system notification in his mind, Fan Yu could not help but feel shocked.

Nanjing Commercial Street?

Magic City's most famous Commercial Street was also the number one commercial street in Hua Nation. It was said that its daily turnover had already reached hundreds of billions, even slightly higher than that of his Financial Street.

And now, the property rights to an entire commercial street belonged to him?

He drove to Financial Street and entered Dinghao Company.

Fan Yu clapped his hands. "Everyone, put down what you're doing for now. We're having a meeting."

Pingwen and Anran had been improving the National Fitness APP. Upon hearing Fan Yu's words, they hurriedly organized everyone to head to the conference room.

Inside the conference room, Xie Yuqing sat beside Fan Yu. Once everyone had arrived, Fan Yu stood up and said, "I called this emergency meeting today because I want to introduce our new CEO."

"Everyone, welcome her."

Xie Yuqing was stunned. She had not expected Fan Yu to trust her so much that he would directly make her the company's CEO.

Then again, it made sense. She was Fan Yu's biological aunt. If even she was not trustworthy, then there was no one trustworthy in this world.

A burst of applause erupted. Fan Yu nodded slightly. "From now on, all company matters will be managed by my aunt. Don't worry, just keep doing your jobs as usual. There's no need to feel pressured. My aunt has dual master's degrees, majoring in financial management and computer science. She's highly capable."

Fan Yu had actually given serious thought to making Xie Yuqing the company's CEO. His aunt had dual master's degrees and was a true academic powerhouse, so there was no question about her ability. He had also heard that she had worked at Amazon overseas, and her work ability was extremely strong.

When the employees heard that their new leader was capable, they became even happier and applauded even more enthusiastically.

Fan Yu raised a hand. "Alright, there's one more thing I need to announce. The National Fitness APP has already developed to a certain point. It only needs the servers to keep running now. The next step is to develop our new platform software."

"For now, we'll call it Jingpin Hui."

Fan Yu then explained some of Jingpin Hui's details to everyone, and they immediately threw themselves into work with renewed enthusiasm.

The people gathered here were all internet elites. They could see that the Quanmin APP had reached its limit, and further breakthroughs were simply impossible unless it transformed into an all-purpose online platform like Douyin or Kuaishou. Only innovation could allow it to rise quickly.

After having an office arranged for Xie Yuqing, Fan Yu said, "A startup fund of one billion has already been transferred to the finance department. I'll leave the rest of the company's operations entirely to you."

Xie Yuqing asked, "You're not going to manage the company?"

Fan Yu said somewhat sheepishly, "I'm a little lazy, and with you here, I can rest easy. Once the platform is built, I'll contact the businesses on Commercial Street and have them join us. There definitely won't be any problem with supply."

"Commercial Street?"

"You can persuade the businesses on Commercial Street?"

Fan Yu nodded. "I have friends over there. It shouldn't be a problem if I mention it."

Xie Yuqing nodded. "Alright, leave Commercial Street to you. Then I'll focus only on the software framework."

Fan Yu nodded. "Alright, Auntie. Get familiar with the work first. I'm leaving."

In truth, getting the businesses on Commercial Street to join Jingpin Hui would be easy. He was the owner of Commercial Street. If he gave up a little profit on rent and some management fees, he could save them at least hundreds of thousands. How could they possibly refuse such benefits?

Moreover, joining Jingpin Hui would not cost them anything. It could even help them sell more products, so why not?

As long as Jingpin Hui operated well, it would definitely become an internet giant. It had far more potential than a fitness app, and earning back dozens of times the investment would be no problem at all.

After discussing everything with Xie Yuqing, Fan Yu left the company and headed to Aoshu Company.

The moment he entered the company, he ran into Lin Shasha.

"Boss?"

When Lin Shasha saw Fan Yu, she could not help blushing as she spoke.

Fan Yu smiled. "Hello."

After greeting Lin Shasha, he went to Zhang Qian's office.

When he did not see Zhang Qian, he took out his phone and called her.

Zhang Qian was having dinner with clients at a restaurant. When she saw that it was Fan Yu calling, her expression brightened.

"Hello, Fan Yu."

Fan Yu said, "Sister Qian, where did you go?"

Zhang Qian apologetically nodded to the several bosses at the table and walked outside the private room. "I'm discussing business with several clients."

Fan Yu sat in his chair and smiled. "How are the negotiations going?"

Zhang Qian hesitated. "It's a little difficult. These people always want to maximize their own benefits, but I can't give in too much. We can't do business at a loss, can we?"

The clients Zhang Qian had met were all distributors. They wanted to use Zhang Qian's company's reputation to open local stores, which could be considered a form of franchising.

However, they also did not want the wholesale prices to be too high. Zhang Qian had already held two rounds of negotiations with them from yesterday until today, but neither side had reached an agreement.

Developing distributors was actually essential for any brick-and-mortar company. After all, the headquarters could not keep opening operations all over the country by itself. If people joined as franchisees, the business could eventually spread nationwide, and the headquarters could sit back and collect money, saving a lot of trouble.

Although e-commerce was everywhere now, products like photonic equipment were still faster to buy from physical stores. They were necessities for shops, and ordering them online meant waiting for delivery. Even one day's delay could affect the opening date.

Fan Yu knew that these distributors were all sly old foxes. He did not want Zhang Qian wasting time arguing with them. Aoshu's strength was right there, so there was no need to waste words on them. Plenty of distributors would line up waving money at them.

Fan Yu said calmly, "Manager Zhang, you don't need to waste words with them. Just tell them this is our price. If they agree, we'll give them distribution rights. If they don't, they can go find someone else."

Zhang Qian said cautiously, "Wouldn't that be bad? Could it affect the company's development?"

Fan Yu knew that Zhang Qian was still somewhat lacking in ability. Otherwise, her company would not have gone bankrupt in the first place.

"It's fine. Just do as I say. Aoshu's online sales are doing so well now. Unless they don't want to make money, they'll agree."

After thinking it over, Zhang Qian agreed and returned to the private room.

After hanging up, Fan Yu handled some company matters and revenue reports before leaving.

On Zhang Qian's side, things happened exactly as Fan Yu had expected. Once she took a firm stance, those distributors could only compromise.

The next day, Fan Yu woke up leisurely, stretched, and felt incredibly refreshed after sleeping straight through the night.

After Xie Yuqing went to the company, she began living there.

Xie Yuqing had a decisive personality. Since she had thrown herself into work, she immediately began working diligently.

Fan Yu sat on the sofa and began checking in.

Checking in was something he had to do every day, because it was the foundation of everything he had.

"Ding! Check-in successful. You have become the fiancé of the Tianlong Group heiress."

Pfft!!!

Fan Yu sprayed out the water he had just swallowed.

"What the hell? Whose fiancé?"

This was the reward that had shocked Fan Yu the most since he began checking in. Before this, he had always received industries and money. He had never expected to receive a living person.

Before he could think further, someone knocked on the door.

"Who is it?"

Fan Yu frowned as he walked to the door. When he opened it, he saw two burly men in black suits standing outside.

"Young Master Fan Yu?"

One of them asked respectfully.

Fan Yu nodded in confusion. These two were obviously bodyguards.

"Young Master Fan Yu, our boss would like to see you." After confirming Fan Yu's identity, the bodyguard spoke politely.

"Your boss?" Fan Yu asked doubtfully.

"You'll know once you come with us."

Fan Yu vaguely began to form a guess.

"Alright. Wait a moment while I change clothes."

Fan Yu was currently wearing a short-sleeved shirt and loose shorts, the clothes he slept in. He needed to change into something more formal.

"Alright."

The bodyguard replied.

Not long after, Fan Yu was neatly dressed. He followed the two men to the underground parking lot, got into a Mercedes-Benz S450, and left Tomson Riviera.

Sitting in the car, Fan Yu guessed that these two were probably from Tianlong Group, the one he had checked in for that morning.

Otherwise, he would not have felt comfortable following them.

As for whether these people might do anything harmful to him, there was no need to worry. With his current status, he was not someone just anyone could touch.

That was the confidence he had as the hidden owner of two streets.

The total assets of Financial Street and Commercial Street were at least tens of trillions, because they had originally belonged to the state. The system had merely forcibly changed their ownership; otherwise, it would have been impossible for a private individual to possess them.

Tianlong Group had a market value of 1.3 trillion US dollars.

It was said that Tianlong Group was not publicly listed, and this market value was only an estimate. Since Tianlong Group primarily focused on technological research and development, it had enormous potential. Especially with the arrival of the 5G era, its valuation had soared.

In chips and operating systems, Tianlong Group was among the best in the domestic industry. It was known as Hua Nation's Samsung Group.

Fan Yu had found all of this online, and there was no way to know whether it was true or false.

The car slowly came to a stop in front of Tianlong Group's headquarters. The 130-story skyscraper stretched beyond sight, and it was said to be Magic City's most iconic building, belonging exclusively to Tianlong Group.

It ranked second among office buildings worldwide.

The value of this office building alone was already immeasurable.

The two bodyguards led Fan Yu into the building. One of them showed his work badge, and the employees and security guards immediately let them pass.

"Who is that person? Why is he being accompanied personally by the Chairman's bodyguards?"

One security guard asked the person beside him.

"I don't know. Don't pry into the affairs of important people. Just do your job."

Only when they reached the 130th floor at the very top of Tianlong Building did the elevator slowly open.

While riding the elevator, Fan Yu felt as though he were on a roller coaster. He kept feeling as though he might fall, because the building was simply too tall. Even the elevator made him feel uncomfortable.

When the elevator doors opened, the entire floor was eerily quiet. However, black-suited bodyguards stood silently at every corner, creating an atmosphere of solemnity and majesty.

The bodyguards stared straight ahead with their hands folded before them. They stood motionless like statues.

The general manager's office door opened, revealing an extremely luxurious office. The office alone was no smaller than Fan Yu's imperial suite at Tomson Riviera.

"Go in. Miss is waiting for you."

After coughing lightly, Fan Yu walked inside.

A high-end solid wood desk stood quietly in the room. Behind it, in an executive chair, sat a young and beautiful woman.

Her delicate brows, angelic face, perfect figure, and cool, aloof aura were all captivating.

"Fan Yu, graduate of Fudan University in Magic City, majoring in financial management, owner of the property rights to Financial Street, owner of the property rights to Commercial Street, Aoshu..."

Su Xi recited a long list of information.

Fan Yu sat down with interest in the chair opposite Su Xi. "Keep going. Let's see what else you've managed to uncover."

"That's all for now. If you have other identities, I'm sure they'll be uncovered sooner or later."

"This morning, my father told me that he had arranged a marriage for me. My first instinct was to refuse, but after reading the information he gave me, I became interested in you."

"You seem to be only twenty-three this year, right?"

"How did you obtain all of this?" Su Xi asked curiously.

Fan Yu smiled faintly. "You called me here just to ask me that?"

He was quite satisfied with the fiancée the system had suddenly arranged for him. Her status and appearance were both top-tier. As expected, the system wanted him to achieve perfection in every way, even assigning him a wife in advance.

As for their status, the two of them were well matched.

One controlled Hua Nation's top technology company. With the arrival of the 5G era, Tianlong Group would undoubtedly shake the world.

Tianlong Group was worth 1.3 trillion US dollars, while his two streets were also immensely valuable. More importantly, their backgrounds were powerful. One controlled technology, while the other controlled the economy. It was a perfect combination.

Su Xi smiled. "Of course. I think we're very compatible, but feelings still need to be cultivated slowly. What do you think?"

Fan Yu nodded. "I think so too."

A burst of applause sounded. An elegant middle-aged man walked out from the inner suite of the office.

"Haha, it seems my daughter is very satisfied with the man I found for her. You two young people should spend more time together. I believe my judgment won't be wrong."

"My daughter has grown up, and my position is sensitive. I don't want her to be deceived. This morning, I happened to see your information and decided that you might be a good match for her, so I could only call you here first to meet Xixi." Su Tianlong said with a smile.

"Mr. Su, are you this casual when choosing a son-in-law?" Fan Yu found it rather amusing.

However, he also knew that this was all the system's doing. He merely had to act along.

Su Tianlong nodded. "Because I trust my own judgment."
