The God of Wealth Arrives (Entertainment Industry) by Gong Qinghan [Complete]
Synopsis: Of the three thousand Great Daos, there was naturally one entered through "wealth."
Cai Jinbai cultivated wealth aura and came to a small world to gather merit in order to achieve "perfect fulfillment."
His eye for talent was sharp, and he could see the flow of wealth above people's heads—distinguishing between legitimate wealth, windfall wealth, and ill-gotten wealth.
What he needed to do was guide those who possessed legitimate wealth but suffered from poor fortune, who were at the bottom of their lives yet had excellent character and kind natures, onto the path to success. By saving them and changing their destinies, he could accumulate merit through the influence they created.
Thus, Cai Jinbai chose:
Children in impoverished mountain regions who had no money for school.
Directors brimming with talent but so short on funds that they had to grovel everywhere for sponsorship.
Screenwriters who were constantly suppressed, had no voice, and were falsely accused of plagiarism with nowhere to turn for help.
Former Best Actors who loved acting but had no roles to play.
Actors who did not want to rise through dishonorable means, only to be shelved with no future in sight.
And traditional crafts and other forms of culture that had been passed down for generations but remained unvalued and were on the verge of dying out.
All of them possessed legitimate wealth, yet their fates were full of hardship.
Cai Jinbai: Don't be afraid. Your true God of Wealth is here.
Money was not omnipotent, but having no money was absolutely impossible.
[Mini Theater:]
During an occasional interview—
Reporter: "President Cai, when did you and Vice President Xuan first meet?"
Cai Jinbai: "Oh, that starts with when I was a little beggar wandering everywhere, barely surviving, starving and freezing in rags, when I got scammed by a pitiful little black snake that was nearly frozen to death..."

Chapter 1
In recent years, S City had been steadily pushing forward the construction of its new district. Before long, this area would replace the old district as a new center of flourishing commerce and trade. It was the top priority among new developments and would become a benchmark for similar plans implemented across the country.
Therefore, when land in the new district went on sale three years ago, countless wealthy tycoons and investors rushed to bid on it. Everyone wanted a slice of the pie or to seize the top spot.
Especially the thirty-eight-story office building in the commercial center of the new district.
This building occupied an exceptional location and would become an iconic structure in S City's new district—a landmark for the city.
In the future, whenever people mentioned S City or the new district, the first thing that came to mind would be this office building. Just like the Sydney Opera House, the Eiffel Tower, and the Statue of Liberty abroad, or Tiananmen and the Oriental Pearl Tower at home, mentioning it would bring to mind the city where it stood.
This was a vast new expanse awaiting development, one that had yet to be named.
Everyone wanted to hang the name of their own company or industry from the very top of the landmark building at its center.
It would be the most lasting and far-reaching form of publicity, a business with endless returns.
Thus, these people fought over it like sharks that had scented blood. The bidding was fierce; the business world was a battlefield, and the smoke of war filled the air.
But there was only one landmark. The big fish had always eaten the small fish, and amid the unseen clashes of blades and shadows, the final result of the many-sided contest was—the site for the office building was successfully bid on by a mysterious foreign tycoon.
Moreover, the other party had not only bought the entire building, but also purchased all the surrounding land and paid the full amount in one lump sum.
The price was astronomical.
One could imagine just how abundant this mysterious tycoon's liquid assets were, how immense his financial power was, and how staggering his wealth must be.
Quite a few people wanted to investigate the identity of this mysterious tycoon. Yet after asking around for ages, all they learned was the name of the assistant who had handled the bidding from start to finish. The tycoon himself had never appeared in person; all related matters had been handled entirely by that assistant.
After hearing about this, no one knew what those wealthy CEOs—who had racked their brains, exhausted themselves, and lost sleep night after night—must have thought.
They had poured everything into the bidding, only for the winner not even to show his face. The contrast was infuriating.
As an excellent agent for handling formalities, Kong Da was now accompanying this assistant to the airport to pick someone up.
All the previous procedures had been completed through this assistant. Even when important documents required a personal signature, the mysterious tycoon had never come to Huaguo. Either a private plane delivered the documents and brought them back, or the papers were signed online. In any case, he was not the least bit afraid of trouble or wasting time and money. He was outrageously rich.
It was not until Kong Da had helped him purchase a property in S City that this mysterious tycoon decided to come to Huaguo.
"Sorry for the trouble during this period, Mr. Kong," Yuan Guangjin said in the car. "I'm unfamiliar with S City, so I've really had to rely on Mr. Kong's care and guidance."
Kong Da smiled as he drove. "Mr. Yuan, you're too polite. Being able to befriend you is also my good fortune."
It truly was his good fortune. Although Yuan Guangjin was merely an assistant, the fact that the mysterious foreign tycoon could entrust such a massive project entirely to him showed just how much he trusted and relied on him. Perhaps his position would rise even further in the future. Even if he did not get promoted or receive a raise, he would certainly have considerable influence.
Connections were the most important thing in their line of work. Being able to befriend Yuan Guangjin was undoubtedly Kong Da's gain.
Although this job had taken quite some time, the income and additional thank-you bonuses were enough to make Kong Da beam with delight. He privately praised their generosity, while becoming even more curious about the identity of the mysterious tycoon behind Yuan Guangjin.
So when he heard that the other party was coming to Huaguo, Kong Da was immediately enthusiastic. He volunteered to help pick him up from the airport and take them to see the property afterward.
After arriving at the airport, Kong Da waited eagerly.
What would this mysterious tycoon look like? How old would he be?
In Kong Da's imagination, the man definitely would not be young. After all, someone capable of securing the landmark building in S City's new district, navigating the business world with ease, possessing such sharp judgment and formidable methods, and calmly controlling everything from abroad did not seem like someone young. Was he middle-aged? Or an energetic elder?
Just as Kong Da was pondering this, he heard Yuan Guangjin say, "My employer is here!"
Mr. Assistant had always been calm and restrained, never revealing joy or anger. He handled matters unhurriedly and with ease. Though not old, he was like a seasoned veteran of the business world—smooth, capable, and impossible to fault.
Yet now, there was obvious delight in his voice. Even his expression carried joy and anticipation.
Kong Da thought, No wonder he's the trusted assistant. Otherwise, how could he sit in that position? Look at him—his employer isn't even in sight yet, and he's already putting on a performance.
But where was his employer? Where?
Kong Da craned his neck toward the airport exit.
"That is my employer." Yuan Guangjin raised an arm and pointed before quickly striding forward.
Kong Da followed the direction of his finger. Oh, th-that person?!
The moment he saw the figure clearly, his eyes widened uncontrollably.
S City Airport was bustling with people. Beneath the grand building, crowds moved continuously back and forth. At the exit facing the sunlight, although streams of people emerged without end, Kong Da still spotted the man Yuan Guangjin had called his employer at a glance.
There was no other reason—his appearance and bearing were simply too outstanding. He stood out like a crane among chickens, dazzling beyond measure. Once one's gaze landed on him, it was hard to look away.
There were quite a few people in the airport who had frozen in astonishment just like Kong Da.
What surprised Kong Da even more was that this mysterious tycoon was actually so young?!
Was he even twenty-five? Probably not.
He wore an exquisitely tailored suit. His legs were long, his features flawless, and his skin fair and translucent. His hair was an exceptionally pure black. He had a pair of long, beautiful phoenix eyes and wore gold-rimmed glasses, which gave him a slightly distant, cool air while making him appear even more refined, elegant, and scholarly. Every gesture displayed extraordinary poise, as though he were a flawless masterpiece crafted by heaven itself.
Kong Da stared for a little too long without realizing it. Suddenly, a chill ran down his back, and his entire body shuddered. Someone had glared at him.
He instinctively looked over and saw that beside the mysterious tycoon stood another man whose looks and bearing were no less impressive.
This man was even taller, broad-shouldered and long-legged, with perfect proportions. Any less would have made him seem thin, while any more would have appeared unbalanced. His brows and eyes were sharp, and his face was as impossibly handsome as though carved with knives and axes. Yet there was something dangerous and unsettling about his presence, like a black panther lying in wait—appearing lazy and motionless, but leaving no doubt about the terrifying force of his explosive power. The slightest glance from him gave one the illusion of icy fear.
No, it was not an illusion. When those eyes swept over Kong Da, his calves genuinely went weak.
Good heavens, who exactly was this man?
That gaze alone marked him as no ordinary person.
Yuan Guangjin led them over to Kong Da.
Kong Da immediately came back to himself and put on a professional smile. "Hello, Mr. Cai."
Cai Jinbai extended a hand. "Hello, Mr. Kong."
"I heard about everything from Guangjin. Thank you for all your hard work during this time."
"It was nothing, nothing. It's my honor to work for you, Mr. Cai. You really don't need to be so polite," Kong Da hurriedly said.
Such a young tycoon, with such immense wealth—if he intended to remain in Huaguo and develop here for the long term... Tsk, it seemed S City was about to change.
However, though he had come from abroad, his features were unmistakably Huaguo.
At any rate, Kong Da could not detect the slightest trace of foreign ancestry.
Even all the people accompanying this tycoon were thoroughly Huaguo as well. Was he simply adapting to local customs?
