When Hong Dali was done arranging this matter, his mood was quite good. “Aiya, squandering ideas falling from the sky. So many Toyoda cars, I have to think of ways to get them out. En, first, send some to New Lanxiang for the students to bang and wreck them. Yes, yes.” Hong Dali smiled as he continued to arrange. “If any movie company needs to film any car explosion scenes, they can use this Toyoda car. Bomb it any way they like!” En, in that case, he wouldn’t have to worry about where to put them...

“Okay.” Ling Xiaoyi took a deep breath.

Since Young Master Hong Dali had already spoken, she could only carry out his instructions.

Just was Ling Xiaoyi walked away, Hong Dali’s smartphone suddenly rang. He took out and was suddenly puzzled. “Aye? It’s Chuyin? What happened?” Chuyin usually focused on her research and rarely called Hong Dali. The number of times she called could be counted with just one hand. Did the sun rise from the west?

The call soon connected. Hong Dali grinned as he asked, “Chuyin ah, what’s the matter? Is there new progress in your research project?”

“Uh,” Chuyin’s voice was flat as usual. But her tone showed a little more concern. “Where are you?”

“I’m...” Hong Dali looked left and right. “I don’t know where this is either. Anyway, it’s a village called He’an. The surroundings are not bad, just that it’s a little inconvenient to get here. I intend to repair the roads or something. The kids here are quite interesting, running wild all over the mountains with me. We’re riding bears now.”

“En.” Lin Chuyin paused. “The first prototype of the Holographic Game Helmet has been completed. But when I was experimenting with it, it seemed our thinking was a little incorrect. When are you coming back?”

The Holographic Game Helmet was different from its concept?! What situation was this?

Speaking of the Holographic Game Helmet, a concept that Hong Dali previously thought of should be mentioned.

Previously, Hong Dali had gained the neural-connection technology. Hence, when Hong Dali was feeling bored one day, he remembered attaining this technology and decided to the neural-connection technology blueprint to create a Holographic Simulation Helmet. In other words, that was to use the neural-connection technology to allow the human brain to connect with the desired internet. This allowed people to play games while sleeping.

This was the Holographic Helmet frequently mentioned in online gaming novels. Now, Lin Chuyin actually said that something was wrong with it?

“Our concept is incorrect?” Hong Dali asked curiously. “What happened exactly?”

“Uh,” Lin Chuyin replied. “In a nutshell, the source of the signal connection from the Holographic Helmet is inconsistent. We have not found the reason.”

There was a problem with the holographic helmet. This was a big deal—the key point was that Hong Dali was extremely curious about what inconsistencies there were. “In that case, wait for me. I’ll return immediately. Haha! Don’t care so much, as long as you successfully studied it!”

Once Hong Dali hung up the phone, he shouted, “Kids, gather here. There is a new situation in my base. I need to go back and take a look!”

“Ah, Big Brother Dali, are you leaving?” The kids didn’t bear for him to leave. “When will you come back to play with us again?”

“When I have time.” Hong Dali grinned. “I’ll come back often.”

Nanhe Province, Zhouzheng City, five-star Soaring Hotel.

Lucifer stood in front of the window and was deep in thought. “Weird. I posted a Weibo earlier on, why hasn’t it taken effect? I’ve been checking, nowhere in the world has had any storm. Did I do it wrongly?”

He did post a Weibo previously. It was regarding the most powerful storm. Such a curse should be quite strong, but nothing happened.

That was highly unusual.

“Hmm, seems like I have to try another Weibo post.” Lucifer thought for a while and took his smartphone to post the latest Weibo. “People I like will live to old age. People I don’t like will have misfortune befall them. For example, a certain amusing and idiotic prodigal...”

Lucifer nodded his head, satisfied. “According to Hong Dali’s redirecting-trouble luck, I have high hopes for this Weibo. Hehe. I wonder who will be the unlucky one this time...”

The phone suddenly rang and Lucifer promptly picked up. “Young Master Dali, you’re looking for me?”

“Prepare to return to the aircraft carrier. The prototype for the Holographic Game Helmet has been completed. But it seems there is a little hiccup.” Hong Dali said, “Quickly return too. I think you are good with computers, maybe you will be able to help Chuyin. She should be quite tired doing research every day.”

“This...” Lucifer replied carefully. “I only know simple hacking...”

“Definitely better than me.” Hong Dali didn’t mind at all. “I don’t care, you’re the only one that can help my Chuyin. Stop dawdling, or else I won’t let you ride a shark!”

“Okay, okay, okay.” Lucifer quickly replied. “I’ll go get ready to leave, okay?”

En, it’s more important to ride on sharks...

“Yes, hurry up. Sister Nianwei has finished packing, we’re all waiting for you!”

...

Tianhai City, Door to Heaven, Level 99, International Convention Center.

Members of the Chamber of Commerce had all arrived and were discussing among themselves—

“The Eleventh Society was completely wrecked by Hong Dali this time. This brat is too scary. Just two events were enough to destroy their reputation. He’s even a member of the Ministry of Supervision, act first and report later!”

“But of course, the Eleventh Society has disappeared in just two days. That’s too scary. He’s too powerful!”

“This father and son from the Hong Family are not simple at all. Qian Guangzhou fell, and Hong Dali brought down the Eleventh Society by doing charitable acts. There are up to 100 officials involved with He’an Village and investigations are still going on. Everyone is feeling insecure!

“Hong Dali is someone who can joke around with the number one person. What’s left is waiting for Hong Weiguo to return to the Chamber of Commerce.”

“The way I see it, it is as easy as a snap of the finger if he wishes to return. With Hong Dali’s power, who wouldn’t give in to him?”

“That, that, let’s stop. Someone is coming! Later, let’s request for special approval from the five magnates for Hong Weiguo to return. It’s safer to be under the protection of people with power and influence!”

“Yes, yes, yes. Let’s do that!”

The doors of the International Convention Center slowly opened. Wen Jianan entered with the other four magnates, followed by Hong Weiguo, Running Dog, Liu Yihui, and Mu Tie. Followed by the assistants in the Chamber of Commerce. The entire group walked in a flurry.

When everyone was in their places, Wen Jianan looked around and cleared his throat. He took up the gravel and pounded once while smiling. “Spending money is easy, earning money is hard, cherish whatever you get—the meeting continues!”

Everyone exploded with laughter.

Everyone was waiting for Hong Weiguo to return to the Chamber of Commerce. After all, with Hong Dali’s influence, if he wanted his father, Hong Weiguo, to return to the Chamber of Commerce, he just had to say the word.

Indeed, Wen Jianan looked at Hong Weiguo and spoke in a voice friendlier than before. “Weiguo ah, your Dali is now capable of supporting your return to the Chamber of Commerce. With your Dali’s power and influence, it might not mean much for you to return to the Chamber of Commerce any more, but I still hope you can come back.”

That was considered an invitation for Hong Weiguo to return to the Chamber of Commerce, special approval. That meant the hard rules were no longer applicable. After all, regardless of how powerful the Chamber of Commerce was, it would not go against the number one person. Hence, the assessment could be omitted.

Everyone put in a word. “That’s right, CEO Hong, let bygones be bygones. The Chamber of Commerce has settled down as well. If you don’t return, we would feel uncomfortable ah!”

“Yes, your Dali is really powerful now. You have to give us a chance to bootlick you, right?”

“Hahaha, that’s right. Bootlicking! Your Dali is much much much more powerful than us!”

Hearing that, Hong Weiguo sighed. Who would have thought that so many things would happen in the Chamber of Commerce in just a few days?

He thought for a while, then shook his head. “Everyone, to be honest, I really want to return to the Chamber of Commerce. I appreciate everyone’s kindness, but...” Hong Weiguo paused and smiled. “There are rules everywhere. That includes me. I’m confident in our Dali! So, I hope we can continue with the asset evaluation of Dali’s Pan-Entertainment Civil Technology Group Corporation!”

Saying that, Hong Weiguo smiled and said, “To tell the truth, I’m really curious about what my son is capable of. As a father, I don’t know anything.”

In fact, he was really curious. He wanted to know how much economic strength his precious son owned.

Hearing that, everyone knew immediately, the exciting part was coming!

Hong Weiguo was truly bold and resolute in action. Something that only required a word from someone, but he did not accept it. Instead, he chose to go through the proper procedure.

This determination was truly astonishing!

When he returned to the Chamber of Commerce with his capability, who would dare to say another word?!

Even the five magnates on the stage looked at each other and nodded secretly.

They were very happy with Hong Weiguo’s determination. After all, Hong Weiguo was slated to be the successor for the five magnates! Next, they would be to see what kind of miracles Hong Dali could create!

“Alright, since Hong Weiguo has spoken,” Wen Jianan looked towards Running Dog. “Continue reporting. Let’s put our attention on the total assets of Dali’s Pan-Entertainment Civil Technology Group Corporation.”
