On October 12, 1999, the Zhongguo News broadcast a message: E-Silver online banking was officially launched, marking the beginning of the era of online digital payments in the Ancient Country.
On November 9, 1999, Dawei Technology officially announced the launch of its smartphone, Future No. 1, which went on sale two weeks later.
In Ling Yi's villa, Shi Yun fiddled with her smartphone and asked curiously, " Ling Yi, wasn't it supposed to be released in half a month? Where did you get this phone?"
"Of course it was given to me by Boss Ren," Ling Yi said with a smile.
"You know both your Boss Ren?" Shi Yun was very surprised.
Just how popular Boss Ren from Dawei right now? He's practically a daily fixture on the Zhongguo News, and almost everyone across the country knows him.
Ling Yi even knows such Big Shot, that's amazing!
On the contrary, Zhu Yueting, Gao Menglan, and Gao Sheng were not too surprised.
Zhu Yueting and Gao Menglan, as women with a 100% Affection, trust Ling Yi completely.
In their hearts, they wouldn't doubt Ling Yi's words if he said he wanted to pluck the sun from the sky and play with it.
As for Gao Sheng, he is now the general agent for Dawei Company in North Leaf Province, and he already knew about the relationship between Ling Yi and Boss Ren.
Yes, under Ling Yi's arrangement, Gao Sheng became the general sales agent for Future No. 1 mobile phone in North Leaf Province.
Yao Hongyuan, standing beside him, glanced at Gao Sheng with envy.
If I hadn't deliberately ruined my relationship with Ling Yi, she probably would have shared in this benefit too, right?
At least we can get a share of the profits.
The profits from being a sales agent in North Leaf Province are simply immeasurable.
The key is the weight that this identity represents.
From now on, Gao Sheng will be able to do whatever he wants in Baihai City.
During this time, she had been trying to repair her relationship with Ling Yi, but Ling Yi had always been indifferent to her.
If Ling Yi knew what she was thinking, he would definitely ask, "Big sister, your Affection has never exceeded 50, how can we trust you?"
Ling Yi had spent a lot of time trying to gain Vow Power Points from Yao Hongyuan, but her Affection remained below 50.
This is a woman who finds it extremely difficult to trust others; aside from being a bit irrational when in love, she only trusts herself.
"This is Bubble Chat. You can send messages, have direct voice chat, video chat, and send photos."
Ling Yi explained how to use a smartphone to everyone.
Zhu Yueting immediately took a picture of Ling Yi and sent it to Gao Menglan.
"Haha, Ling Yi, you're so ugly!" Gao Menglan laughed loudly as she looked at the photo.
"Do you even know how to take pictures? Who takes photos like that, right up to your face? With that kind of shooting technique, Diaochan could turn into a pig," Ling Yi complained.
As he spoke, he held up his phone and took a picture of himself, then sent it to both women.
"This is the right way to take photos."
This phone is no different from the smartphones of later generations.
To get the smartphone listed, Ling Yi used up nearly 150 Learning Card and 30 Advancement Card.
Single-handedly, he overcame all the technical challenges and brought the technology of the next two or three decades into the present.
Right now, the only thing this phone lacks is internet speed.
But it will happen soon. Boss Ren is currently cooperating with his superiors to start building 5G signal base stations.
During this period, the Heavenly Palace Satellite was also being developed and the Heavenly Palace Network was being built.
In addition, there are a lot of cutting-edge technologies.
Thirty Advancement Card aren't for nothing.
Twenty years later, the Ancient Country finally proposed the Heavenly Palace Plan, but Ling Yi brought it out ahead of Heavenly Palace Plan and filled in the missing technologies.
However, while the technology exists, it will still take some time before it can be truly implemented.
After all, the Heavenly Palace wasn't built in a day.
At this moment, Yao Hongyuan said to Gao Sheng, "Brother-in-law, do you know Boss Qi Yun? Is there some misunderstanding between you two?"
After Yao Hongyuan finished speaking, she noticed that everyone in the room suddenly fell silent.
"Ha, Qi Yun has come to you, asking you to plead for mercy?" Gao Sheng sneered.
"He did contact me. After all, Boss Qi is the president of the Red Maple Business Alliance. Whatever misunderstandings you have, I don't think it's necessary to offend him too much."
"Heh, trying to plead for him? How laughable! There's absolutely no way you're going to do that. Tell him to just wait to die!"
Qi Yun, that old fellow, is indeed cautious and leaves no room for error in his actions.
There are basically no ways to control him overtly.
Otherwise, with Zero's methods, he would have already found evidence and sent him to work as a sewing machine operator.
It has to be said, this Qi Yun is indeed quite something.
If Ling Yi weren't cheating, he probably really wouldn't be able to beat him.
Since underhanded tactics won't work, let's just go for the overt.
During this period, all of Qi Yun's projects suffered fatal setbacks.
Ling Yi's method was simple: he just threw money at the problem.
To this end, Ling Yi did not hesitate to waste forty Rebate Card and seven Investment Card.
At this moment, all of Qi Yun's projects have come to a standstill, his cash flow has dried up, and he is truly in a desperate situation where he can only cry out to heaven and earth for help.
Ling Yi and Gao Sheng's goal was to push him into Extremis, forcing him to take desperate measures and resort to underhanded tactics.
If he dares to use it, Ling Yi will send him straight in to operate the sewing machine.
Suppressing his projects and businesses wasn't Ling Yi and Gao Sheng's goal; their goal was to completely ruin Gao Sheng, so that even if he didn't die, he'd be stuck working on a sewing machine for the rest of his life.
" Gao Sheng, Qi Yun has an extremely powerful network of connections. Offending him will not do us any good," Yao Hongyuan, frowning.
"A little over a month ago, Qi Yun kidnapped Gao Menglan for that piece of land in Ruyi District," Gao Sheng said coldly.
"What?" Yao Hongyuan somewhat surprised.
"Offending Qi Yun would be detrimental to us," Yao Hongyuan said, frowning.
She was a woman who only considered her own interests. At this moment, she wasn't thinking about avenging Gao Menglan, but rather about not wanting to end up in a fight to the death with Qi Yun.
But her words offended everyone in the room.
" Qi Yun is doomed. I told you, even the Jade Emperor couldn't save him," Ling Yi said at this moment.
"What gives you the right?" Yao Hongyuan shouted.
"Guess why that old bastard asked you to plead with Brother Gao?" Ling Yi sneered.
"Go back and find out what's going on before you try to mediate. Now get out!"
Gao Menglan is now his woman, and Qi Yun is doomed. Anyone who pleads for Qi Yun now is an enemy.
"You!" Yao Hongyuan stood up angrily. This Ling Yi actually chased her away.
She was unaware of Ling Yi's power.
In her view, Ling Yi's deadly confrontation with Qi Yun was like throwing an egg against a rock; at best, it would only result in mutual destruction.
"Go out!"
Yao Hongyuan's face turned ugly, and she turned and left.
"I used to admire my aunt a lot, but I never expected her to be like this," Gao Menglan said with some disappointment.
Ling Yi didn't say anything more.
As it turns out, good looks and good character have absolutely nothing to do with each other.
Yao Hongyuan a beauty score of 96, which is pretty high, right? But what was the result? She was just a selfish woman who prioritized personal gain.
Around 2 PM, Ling Yi received a call from Du Zeli, saying that someone was causing trouble at the internet cafe.
When Ling Yi arrived at the internet cafe, he found that the entrance was surrounded by more than thirty people.
They wouldn't let anyone out, nor would they let anyone in.
These people are clearly Xiao Qing have only recently entered the workforce.
They must have watched too many gangster movies; they were all carrying watermelon knives, had tattoos, and looked like fierce demons.
Ling Yi got out of the car and walked straight towards the internet cafe.
"Kid, get lost. We're from the White Dragon Gang, and the internet cafe is closed today," one of the punks said, brandishing a machete.
The White Dragon Gang? Ling Yi almost burst out laughing.
How many kilograms of "Oli Ge" (a popular internet slang term for "awesome") must be in these guys' brains to be so childish and immature?
Ling Yi stepped forward, snatched the knife from the man's hand, and with his other hand, grabbed the man's neck, lifted him into the air, and sneered, " The White Dragon Gang, is it?"
"Let go!"
"Release Second Master."
"Watch out or we'll kill you!"
"You've offended the White Dragon Gang? You don't want to live here anymore?"
Seeing their "brother" being bullied, the others swarmed around Ling Yi and started shouting and yelling.
Ling Yi's face was extremely cold.
He suddenly remembered that in his previous life, there was indeed a White Dragon Gang near the University of University of Finance and Economics.
Although they were gone in less than a month, to be precise, some were executed, and others were forced to work on sewing machines.
However, the White Dragon Gang did commit many evil deeds during that month.
The most serious incident involved an internet cafe owner who was hacked to death inside the cafe, and a female internet cafe manager was also raped.
Could the internet cafe owner be the one Ling Yi took over?
If Ling Yi hadn't taken over this internet cafe...
Ling Yi couldn't help but think of the original owner of the internet cafe and that Erya.
These people all deserve to die.
Ling Yi suddenly slammed his hand down to the ground, smashing the spring in his hand onto the ground.
Huangmao let out a muffled groan and immediately fainted.
"Damn it, how dare he hurt one of our White Dragon Gang! Cut him down!" one of them shouted.
"Kill him!"
They're all a bunch of brainless, immature teenagers who've watched too much gangster filming.
At this moment, the Hot Blood gets the better of me, and I get carried away.
He raised his cleaver without hesitation and slashed at Ling Yi.
Everyone around was stunned.
These guys are really reckless; they actually dared to pull out knives.
Inside the internet cafe, Du Zeli's body went limp, and her eyes turned red.
For Du Zeli, Ling Yi was not only her boss, but also her benefactor.
Seeing that Ling Yi was about to be killed, she suddenly lost her temper.
He grabbed two glass bottles of drinks from the Fridge, one in each hand, and with a shout of "Yay!", rushed out with the bottles in hand.
"Thump, thump!" Two muffled sounds.
Surprisingly, the two bottles she was holding were of excellent quality and didn't break.
The two thugs who had been shot in the head rolled their eyes back and collapsed to the ground.
Seeing that it was effective, Du Zeli's confidence soared, and she raised the bottle, ready to strike again.
But the others aren't made of wood; how could they not react?
"Damn it, this woman is ruthless, kill her!" one of them shouted.
But as soon as he finished speaking, his body flew sideways as if he had been hit by a truck, one of them crashing into a tree by the roadside and falling still.
Another one crashed into the wall outside the internet cafe, fell to the ground, and started Kuku blood.
It seems that when Ling Yi saw Du Zeli rush out, fearing she would get hurt, he threw someone at her like a javelin.
Ling Yi moved like a tiger among sheep, slashing left and right with his blade, sending the thugs flying and screaming in agony.
