My capital is quite large.

Chapter 176 The Three-Star Prince

In the heart of Nanjing, inside Liu Shishi's luxurious penthouse.

The early autumn sun slanted into the spacious living room, and the air was filled with the aroma of fragrance and hand-drip coffee.

The "Peaceful and Quiet Five" were lounging on the sofa, enjoying a rare afternoon without any commitments.

"Speaking of which, the boss seems to have been in a pretty good mood for the past two weeks."

Li Xin held her coffee cup, her face flushed with a shy, gentle smile, as she softly shared her recent "shift scheduling" experiences.

"When I went to the manor the day before yesterday, the owner didn't give me much trouble and even praised me for my recent improvement in skills."

Liu Shishi and Tang Yan exchanged a smile and nodded in agreement.

"Yes, when I went there last week, the boss was quite gentle." Liu Shishi tidied a stray hair behind her ear, her tone revealing a hint of relief.

In the ruthless Haofeng Empire, these few beauties are very clear about their current ecological position.

In terms of ruthlessness and willingness to go to great lengths to win favor, they admit they can't compare to many others.

However, they also have their own advantages.

That is, when the boss is in a great mood after expanding his business and needs a peaceful place to relax and rest, their elegant, sweet, and uncompetitive temperament is the best confidante.

Therefore, as long as it's Secretary Zhang's schedule and it's their turn to go to the manor, it means that the big boss hasn't encountered any troubles today, and they can comfortably benefit from it.

"Sister Tangtang, Sister Shishi, and Xinxin have all been there."

Ni Ni peeled an orange beside her, her charming eyes filled with a hint of eagerness. "Judging by the days, it should be my turn in a few days, right? I've already prepared my new battle suit."

Listening to the older women discussing the treatment they received at the manor, Nazha, sitting in the corner hugging a cushion, blinked her big eyes and couldn't help but whisper a comment.

"Sisters... actually, we don't have to be so passive all the time."

Naza bit her lip, her voice barely audible: "I heard that Sister Mi was able to get pregnant this time because Reba's mother sent her some traditional Chinese medicine remedies from the Western Regions that can help regulate the body."

"But Reba has one, and so do I! I also had my mom send me a big package. If only we could be like Sister Yifei and Sister Mi..."

As soon as Nazha said this, the atmosphere in the living room became quiet for a moment.

The four leading actresses looked at this outspoken young girl. Although they didn't say anything, a hint of longing and yearning inevitably flashed in each of their eyes.

Yes, that's a real shortcut to transcending social classes! Who wouldn't be tempted?

Just as the five women were each secretly plotting to have a child.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

The vintage floor clock on the wall struck six times.

It's 6 PM.

Liu Shishi glanced subconsciously at her phone on the coffee table.

The screen was completely black.

Not only her, but Tang Yan, Li Xin, and Ni Ni also looked at their phones, and none of them had any new message notifications.

"It's six o'clock..."

Tang Yan's smile faded, and her brows furrowed slightly. "According to the usual practice, we will notify you by 5:30 at the latest."

"But it's already six o'clock, and there's still no sound."

Liu Shishi and Li Xin exchanged a glance, both seeing a knowing look of alarm in each other's eyes.

"Looks like something happened to the boss today that put him in a bad mood." Ni Ni's original hope of trying on the new battle suit vanished.

They also knew the boss's habits.

When things don't go well, what the boss needs isn't a confidante, but someone to vent his anger without any psychological burden!

"I wonder... which unlucky guy will be the next one tonight."

The girls prayed silently in their hearts, while also sighing with a sense of shared sorrow.

……

The next morning.

In a luxury apartment building in downtown Nanjing.

With a "click," the door was pushed open.

Zhao Liying, wearing a baseball cap and a mask, walked in unsteadily, leaning against the wall.

With each step I took, my legs swayed uncontrollably.

Just standing up causes excruciating pain in my lower body.

"Liying! You're back!"

Hearing the door open, Xin Zhilei, who was staying at her place, quickly came up from the living room to greet her.

Upon seeing Zhao Liying's miserable state, as if she had lost half her life, Xin Zhilei was startled and quickly stepped forward to support her arm.

"Hiss—be gentle, be gentle..."

Zhao Liying gasped, almost putting all her weight on Xin Zhilei before she could barely move to the sofa. In an awkward position, she half-slumped onto the soft cushion.

"How did you get so weak? The boss is too..." Xin Zhilei looked at Zhao Liying's weak appearance and quickly poured her a cup of warm brown sugar water and handed it to her.

Zhao Liying held the water glass, and the warm liquid slid down her throat, making her feel alive again.

She gave a bitter smile.

How could she not sense it? The boss's initial infatuation with her had long since faded.

My round face wasn't particularly outstanding among all the stunning actresses.

Now, in the boss's eyes, I'm just a tool who can endure any hardship and adopt any attitude!

Whenever the boss encounters something unpleasant, the first person he thinks of is definitely her, his punching bag.

But Zhao Liying didn't care!

She can endure it! Even if she's treated like a plaything, as long as she can get resources that others would kill for in this cutthroat world, she feels that all the pain is worth it!

"Liying, seeing you go alone and suffer so much, I feel really bad for you."

As Xin Zhilei massaged Zhao Liying's aching calves, his eyes darted around, his tone carrying a hint of simmering desire:

"If Secretary Zhang calls you again next time... why don't you try to mention to the boss that you can ask me to come along with you?"

"With more people helping you, you won't suffer so much every time you come back. Besides, with our relationship, the boss might find it interesting to serve him together."

Xin Zhilei was getting anxious.

She's been with Haofeng for a while now, but because of her aggressive appearance, she's been sidelined and hasn't even seen the boss once.

However, upon hearing this self-recommendation...

Zhao Liying, who had just been weak and exhausted, suddenly became sharp-eyed!

"Sister Zhi Lei! I advise you to swallow this thought as soon as possible!"

Xin Zhilei was startled by her sudden outburst of energy: "Liying, I... I was just trying to help you out..."

"Help me share the burden? Do you want me to die even faster?!"

"Who do you think you are? Who do you think I am?!"

"You think you can influence the boss's decisions by sleeping with him?!"

Zhao Liying recalled the consequences of recommending Xin Zhilei after the incident when the boss was in a good mood; the three-way communication still made her shudder.

"In this company, apart from Secretary Zhang, no one else can make decisions for the boss!"

"Even Yang Mi and Liu Yifei don't dare to cross the line, so what are we?!"

Xin Zhilei was terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat, and nodded repeatedly: "I understand, I understand, Liying... I will never mention this again!"

After giving Xin Zhilei a dressing down, Zhao Liying finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone softened slightly.

Although he suffered greatly, a pain that most people could hardly bear, the benefits were also readily apparent.

She pulled a script, still smelling of ink, from her bag and tossed it onto the coffee table.

"Take a look."

Although Zhao Liying's sitting posture was awkward, a burning ambition was evident in her eyes, referring to "Boss & Me".

"This script was personally picked out by the boss! He specifically asked me to play the female lead, Xue Shanshan! And the male lead I'm paired with is Yang Yang, the company's top star!"

A leading lady drama co-starring with Yang Yang!

Xin Zhilei's eyes lit up as he looked at the script, filled with envy and longing.

This is a top-tier pie that was earned with their lives on the line!

"Sister Zhilei, as long as you achieve success in this industry, the boss will naturally notice you," Zhao Liying reassured her.

"For this drama, 'Boss Shan Comes,' the boss said that I should choose the female supporting roles that I find pleasing to the eye."

"I've reserved the role of Yuan Lishu, the second female lead, for you."

Upon hearing this, Xin Zhilei was so excited he almost jumped up!

"Thank you, Liying! Thank you! Don't worry, I'll definitely do my best on set and won't let you down!"

Xin Zhilei became incredibly attentive, and she finally understood.

Before they achieve results, they don't even have the right to sit at the table in the boss's eyes!

The only way out for her is to cling tightly to Zhao Liying and make it through the tough times in the film crew!

......

Li Feng naturally paid no attention to Zhao Liying's ecstasy and gratitude after obtaining the resources.

In this vast Haofeng Empire, women and beauty are merely insignificant diversions for him after his nerves are stretched thin.

What he really wants to tear down is the impenetrable iron curtain that hangs over China's technology industry.

In Jinling, on the top floor of the Zifeng Tower, there is a top-tier private club overlooking the entire ancient capital of six dynasties.

Security was raised to the highest level, with more than a dozen bodyguards in black tightly blocking off the club's several entrances and exits.

Today, a cross-border meeting of tycoons is about to take place here.

"Boss, the representative team from Samsung Korea is downstairs."

Zhang Xinyu strode into the private room and reported to her superior with a solemn expression: "The person leading the team this time is Lee Jae-yong, the heir of the Samsung Group."

"Lee Jae-yong came in person?"

Li Feng leaned back in the rosewood chair, his eyebrows slightly raised.

This is an absolute heavyweight!

As the undisputed heir to the Samsung Group, Lee Jae-yong is currently only the president, but it is already widely known in the industry that he will be officially promoted to vice chairman of Samsung Electronics by the end of this year at the latest, taking over this huge South Korean chaebol empire.

"For him, the future reclusive king of South Korea, to personally fly to Nanjing, it seems the offer we made was indeed tempting enough."

Li Feng stood up, straightened his suit collar, and said, "Let's go greet this young master. We must be courteous."

A few minutes later.

Accompanied by a flurry of footsteps, Lee Jae-yong, with an air of refined elegance mixed with a touch of chaebol arrogance, entered the private room, surrounded by several South Korean executives and bodyguards.

"President Li, I've long admired your name. Welcome to Nanjing."

Li Feng smiled and stepped forward, extending his hand.

Facing this young tycoon who wields considerable influence in China's internet and entertainment sectors, Lee Jae-yong dared not be presumptuous. He extended his hand in return and politely said in somewhat broken Chinese, "Mr. Lee, you're too kind. The actions of Haofeng Group and Xiaomi Technology in Asia recently have truly amazed us at Samsung."

The two sat down, and fragrant tea was served.

Without much small talk, Li Feng got straight to the point.

"President Li, I'm a straightforward person."

Li Feng picked up his teacup, his gaze fixed intently on the South Korean chaebol heir opposite him: "We invited you here today to solve the critical problem in our Xiaomi mobile phone supply chain, and also for the underlying technology of our Huaxin Technology."

Over the past six months, Li Feng and Lei Jun have faced numerous setbacks in Silicon Valley.

The technology blockade imposed by the United States is a very sensitive issue.

Apple is extremely wary of them. Although Qualcomm and Nvidia are willing to sell chips, they only sell "finished products." To gain access to the deeper architecture and technology licensing is undoubtedly a pipe dream!

The Western world's vigilance towards China's semiconductor industry has reached a point of extreme anxiety.

Therefore, Li Feng decisively changed his tactics and focused his breakthrough on South Korea!
