Having settled the relocation matters for Xinghan Hotel, Jiang Cheng made one final request to Old Mr. Jiang: to second Mr. Li to him and appoint him as the first district chief of Dream Paradise Resort, fully responsible for the operations of the entire resort!
Mr. Li’s full na is Li Zhiyuan.
At present, he is the number two figure of real power in the entire Jiang Group, holding a status even above Jiang Cheng’s father.
If Mr. Li weren’t surnad differently, Jiang Cheng firmly believed he would be the most suitable candidate for taking over the Jiang Group, far surpassing himself, who was rely an amateur in comparison.
Not only is Mr. Li outstanding in ability, hardworking without complaint, but also extrely loyal, having followed Old Mr. Jiang since childhood, journeying southward, establishing the enterprise from scratch alongside him, tirelessly working day and night.
One could say that the Jiang Group’s present success is half owing to Mr. Li’s contributions.
Through decades of battling, he has acquired unique insights into corporate managent, capital operation, and international trade, with a mindset more lively, a sense more acute, and a vision far-sighted compared to the stodgy old-tirs like Old Mr. Jiang.
Jiang Cheng feels this deeply.
Now, with Jade Island about to get on track and open to global investnt, soone experienced like Mr. Li is urgently needed at the helm.
Although Jiang Cheng has the support of cutting-edge technology, his experience in managent and operation is still shallow, and even if he were experienced, he wouldn’t want to exhaust all his energies sitting idly in an office every day, going through paperwork in such a mundane way.
Therefore, he wants Mr. Li to assist him and manage every affair on Jade Island.
anwhile, he himself could spare ti to use advanced technology to develop the island, advance science and technology, and in his leisure, build a few big ships to explore unknown seas and travel the world, which is the life he yearns for.
Upon hearing Jiang Cheng’s request, Old Mr. Jiang was evidently sowhat troubled.
For Zhiyuan is his most trusted right-hand man, and in recent years, the Jiang Group remained unshaken amidst the pressure from the governnt in the Philippines, all thanks to his calm responses.
However, after thorough consideration, Old Mr. Jiang still cheerfully agreed.
Compared to the Jiang Group, evidently, his eldest grandson is sowhat more important!
He was placing a grand bet, staking the future of the Jiang Group entirely on Jiang Cheng!
Thus, both parties hung up the phone, ending this long conversation.
Only then did Jiang Cheng take a long, deep breath, feeling completely at ease all over; now, you could say everything is ready.
What follows is the planning for the publicity matters of Jade Island.
...
Early the next morning, Jiang Cheng rode Hai as usual to the Dream Paradise Resort.
Today, however, he did not patrol around. Instead, he took out his phone and began snapping photos of each scenic spot.
It had to be said, Jade Island’s natural scenery is truly impeccable. It seems to co with a natural filter; even casually taken photos can instantly outshine those promotional shots in travel magazines.
The entire morning, Jiang Cheng was imrsed in the beauty of Dream Bay.
After taking photos, Jiang Cheng comfortably lay on a beach chair, opened the Weibo app, browsed his following list, and after so searching, finally found a familiar na at the bottom: Guan Xiaofei.
Her certification information read: Editor-in-Chief of ’National Geographic’ magazine, Global Adventure Traveler, Xing Han Photographer, Royal Photographer of Ying Country, Chairman of Yanjing University Alumni Association, Weibo Signed Self-dia
Followers: 8.76 million!
Clearly, she is indeed a Weibo celebrity.
"Heh... this little girl, when did she get so many titles? Doesn’t she feel overwheld?"
Seeing the long string of certification information, Jiang Cheng smirked, a aningful smile on his face, like a big bad wolf catching the scent of a little lamb.
Guan Xiaofei was Jiang Cheng’s classmate while studying at Yanjing University.
Back then, the two just entered campus—a youthful beauty who everyone swooned over, and a handso, talented campus heartthrob; they were like two magnets with opposite poles, inevitably igniting so dangerous sparks amid life and study.
Unfortunately, it didn’t last long. Overwheld by hormones and influenced by the surroundings, Jiang Cheng gradually lost himself, flirting and entangled everywhere, becoming a notorious ’playboy’ at Yanjing University.
Upon learning this, Guan Xiaofei was deeply hurt; however, she was also a knowledgeable, mature, and decisive person, promptly reining in, cutting off the ambiguous relationship with Jiang Cheng.
After that, Jiang Cheng gradually matured and repented; he also expressed apologies to her, and the straightforward Guan Xiaofei graciously accepted, stating that they remain friends.
So, in their spare ti, they occasionally had als together, chatted to brighten their spirits, but the interactions remained restrained, without crossing any lines.
Soon after, Jiang Cheng’s issues were discovered by Old Mr. Jiang, leading to his withdrawal and return to the Philippines, where he stayed until now.
Looking at the familiar na, recalling those past scenes, a gentle smile appeared on Jiang Cheng’s lips.
Admittedly, the cherished mories of youth possess an indescribable magic; whenever recalled, they unfailingly bring an inward smile, regardless of one’s current status, be it noble or humble.
For they are the emotions buried deep within human nature, which, once unearthed, even the visage of a demon can ripple into an angelic smile.
After a mont of hesitation, Jiang Cheng opened his private ssages, typed a line, and sent it over.
"Old classmate, long ti no see, three scratching head and silly smile emojis."
Half an hour later.
The phone chid with a "ding-dong" sound, Jiang Cheng opened the chat interface and saw her reply.
"Oh dear, has it reached the harvest season? How did a playboy radish pop up? Still heartbreaker? Three ow-ow emojis."
Jiang Cheng instantaneously stiffened, covered in black lines.
This little girl, even after all this ti, still harbors a grudge against him; evidently, the saying that won are petty-hearted is spot on!
Though speechless inside, Jiang Cheng still needed her help. So, he thick-skinnedly continued typing.
"At first it was accidental, juvenile ignorance, perhaps a mistake of this life, or payback from a past life. I apologize here and hope the lady will forgive ."
"Pah! Don’t start that again; we never reached that stage. Luckily, I found my way back and stopped in ti, thank goodness, thank goodness, three chest-pat emojis."
"Okay... you heartless little thing, eat all and refuse to recognize afterward!" Jiang Cheng thought sulkily but dared not say it.
"If you really want to apologize, perhaps say it to Qianqian, three sneaky laugh emojis."
After a while, Guan Xiaofei sent another ssage.
Jiang Cheng’s fingers instantly halted.
In that instant, all his attention was fixed on the two words "Qianqian," as if these two words had so magical power that entirely engulfed him!
Jiang Cheng’s expression beca rather colorful, as emotions ranging from joy, anger, sorrow to happiness flickered across his face one after the other...
Su Qianqian is a na Jiang Cheng can never avoid in his lifeti; she is the person who led him to maturity amid the sea of flowers.
