Back in the hotel.
Because tomorrow I am preparing to attend Caron’s private party, which is crucial to the success of this mission.
Therefore, Lu Li asked Zhang Guocheng, Xiaolin, and Old Wu to return to their rooms to rest, rejuvenate, and be prepared to act.
He, on the other hand, returned to his room to ponder how to definitely gather information about Jin Zhouzhou tomorrow.
Lu Li had just finished showering and lay on the bed, "According to the information Zhang Guocheng obtained earlier, Jin Zhouzhou was supposed to appear at the match tonight, but in reality, this person didn’t show up at all."
He had a vague premonition that Jin Zhouzhou was very likely no longer in Los Angeles.
For this reason, Lu Li began to consider how to smoothly complete the mission if he still couldn’t find the target tomorrow.
"The thod should be quite simple, just need to pay attention to a few things."
Lu Li quickly thought of an idea, "I can change my appearance and physique to so extent into soone else’s look. After my third deep evolution, I also gained the superpower to mimic others’ voices. If by then I still don’t see Jin Zhouzhou, then I’ll find a way to disguise myself as Caron and subtly extract information from so higher-ups on California Eighteenth Street."
This is a desperate asure after all. Having two Carons appear simultaneously, one careless move could easily arouse suspicion.
Lu Li decided not to use this trick until the eleventh hour.
Thinking about it, his thoughts drifted back to the matter of the betting money.
"Earlier in the car, Zhang Guocheng said the money hadn’t arrived yet. Generally, such an amount is transferred into an account within two hours, and an hour has passed by now, it’s unclear whether it has arrived in the account."
Three hundred sixty-five million US Dollars, converting to the Chinese currency is about twenty-six billion four hundred fifty million.
Lu Li pondered, if he could get this money, he could even afford a luxury yacht.
As possibly the world’s only Extraordinary, he didn’t want to beco soone else’s "laborer," naturally hoping to earn enough money to enjoy life through his strength.
Private jets, luxury yachts, he wants them all.
As he was thinking, the phone rang again with a "ring ring."
Lu Li glanced over and saw that the caller was Johnny Smith.
He didn’t initially want to answer but after thinking briefly, reluctantly picked up the phone.
Lu Li casually said, "Hey Johnny, it’s pretty late, what’s up?"
Johnny Smith’s slightly excited voice imdiately ca from the other end, "Mr. Lu, I need to tell you sothing. Please don’t rush to reject it, hear out first, okay?"
Lu Li was preoccupied wondering when the money would arrive; feeling rather bored, he didn’t mind hearing what the other had to say.
He made a sound of agreent, "Alright, go ahead."
Johnny Smith said, "I want to invite you to participate in a professional boxing match. I know you’ll probably refuse, but hear out first."
Lu Li acknowledged, without interjecting.
Johnny Smith continued, "Firstly, I’ll try to create so hype for you, like contacting so retired boxing champion to have so conflict with you, making it widely known, then set up a match where you pretend to go a round or two before defeating him. Then he makes bold statents about how even professional boxing is just like this. This will certainly provoke many professional champions, and nurous people might challenge you publicly. Of course, they’d just be mouthing off at that point, but we could act as if angered, register you as a boxer, and then announce your intent to defeat well-known boxers in official professional matches. With your strength, making it to the finals of a championship match would be very easy, and by then, with widespread publicity, your appearance fee would surely be high. Combined with comrcial operations, I dare promise you, earning two to three hundred million dollars a year like Mayweather is very achievable."
Two to three hundred million a year is indeed a substantial amount.
However, earning such a sum requires too much ti.
Lu Li wasn’t interested in confining himself within finite ti fras.
He decisively rejected, "Sorry, Johnny, I’m not interested."
Johnny Smith persisted, "Becoming the next Mayweather, even surpassing him, doesn’t that tempt you?"
Lu Li said, "Being famous doesn’t matter to at all. As for earning two or three hundred million dollars, honestly, if I put in a bit more ti, I can earn it in other ways. As for boxing matches, I might play around occasionally, but doing it consistently, I have no interest."
Johnny Smith was extrely disappointed, "Okay then..."
As he spoke, he seed to think of sothing and quickly asked, "You just said playing occasionally is fine. If I can, by any ans necessary, organize a global scale boxing or mixed martial arts competition, would you be willing to participate?"
Lu Li laughed, "That depends on the final earnings. If the money is too little, forget it."
Johnny Smith sounded resolute, "Alright, I will do everything I can to et your requirents. If I really succeed, you must compete."
Lu Li perfunctorily replied, "We’ll see then."
After hanging up, he casually tossed the phone aside, shaking his head.
With his physical prowess, entering any sport competition worldwide, winning the championship would be effortless.
Honestly, becoming famous would be the easiest thing.
Simply put, if he were willing to represent the Huaxia Athletics Team in the hundred-ter sprint, the national team might go nuts with excitent, breaking the world record would be too easy.
However, it’s aningless, too much of a ti waste.
Lu Li leaned against the bedhead, thinking, "If I had plenty of ti, as I said to Johnny Smith earlier, playing occasionally is fine; there’s no need to restrain myself."
Speaking of playing occasionally, he pondered whether, if he had ample ti, he should represent the country in so major sporting events to make a na for himself.
Forget it, that’s sothing to consider later.
Lu Li stopped thinking about sports.
He guessed that by now, so late into the night, Zhang Guocheng might have gone to sleep.
I’ll have to wait until tomorrow morning to see if the money has arrived.
Hey, the money won’t disappear anyway unless the website denies it.
It’s not impossible, but Lu Li isn’t worried. If the website really dares to withhold his money, sorry, he’ll show the boss behind the scenes what real fear is!
Thinking this, he lay down and went to sleep.
...
The next day, early in the morning.
Lu Li got up early, having just finished brushing his teeth and washing his face.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang "ding dong ding dong."
Lu Li couldn’t be bothered to open the door and used his spiritual power to open it remotely.
The next mont, Zhang Guocheng appeared at the door. He walked in with a beaming smile and said, "Mr. Lu, your money has arrived. It’s now in our account. Do you want to keep the money overseas or exchange it into Chinese Yuan and deposit it in a dostic account?"
The money has arrived?
Lu Li was pleased and thought for a mont before saying, "Help open an anonymous account overseas to make it easier for to use money in the future."
Zhang Guocheng quickly said, "Sure, I’ll open an anonymous account for you at the Swiss Bank and put the money in there, okay?"
Although the reputation of Swiss banks hasn’t been great in recent years, their anonymous accounts are still highly favored.
This thod doesn’t require users to provide any personal information; they just need an account password to use the money.
As he becos more powerful, "globalization" is sothing inevitable.
And who knows how much undisclosed wealth there will be in the future.
So having such an account is beneficial.
Lu Li nodded, "Okay."
Zhang Guocheng said, "I’ll get soone to handle it right away and later give you the account and password. You can check online to confirm the amount."
Lu Li smiled, "I trust you wouldn’t shortchange ."
Zhang Guocheng laughed heartily, "Of course, we wouldn’t dare shortchange you."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, he turned and left.
Lu Li sat there pondering how to use the 365 million US Dollars he’d acquired.
A luxury yacht, that’s doable.
A high-end standalone villa is also an option.
Although the Liu Family gifted him a Chinese courtyard villa, it’s more like an artifact-level villa and not exactly luxurious.
Lu Li considered quietly whether to buy a real luxury ho in Shanghai when he returns to Huaxia.
That way, he could bring his parents over to live there and let them enjoy it too.
Lu Li thought the plan was good, "Great, once back ho, buy a truly luxurious villa."
As for now...
Lu Li showed a serious look, "Let’s get today’s task done right."
...
In the afternoon.
Caron sent people to pick up Lu Li, Zhang Guocheng, Xiaolin, and Old Wu.
Lu Li and the others made all the necessary preparations and headed to the party venue imdiately.
Yeah, sothing happened this morning that left Lu Li speechless. Julia Gianini went crazy, creating a massive "heart" with roses under the hotel, like a scene from a marriage proposal between a man and a woman.
Lu Li knew Julia Gianini wanted to please him, but it was too absurd, making him feel like a woman being proposed to.
At that mont, he wore a dark expression and ignored Julia Gianini entirely.
In the car.
Zhang Guocheng seed a bit nervous, "Mr. Lu, everything depends on you today."
Xiaolin and Old Wu also looked expectant.
Lu Li smiled, "I know, don’t worry. As long as there are no surprises, I can definitely complete the mission."
Zhang Guocheng flattered, "Exactly, we all believe in you."
Lu Li smiled knowingly. Indeed, if even he couldn’t find Jin Zhouzhou, then Zhang Guocheng, Xiaolin, and Old Wu wouldn’t have a chance.
He was confident that as long as Jin Zhouzhou was at the party or within a five-kiloter radius, he could definitely uncover him.
With the task nearing completion and the opportunity to return ho soon, Lu Li was in a good mood.
