Chapter 2045: Chapter 1868: Never Leaving While Tang Qing was in a meeting. Thailand. Northern region. "How is it?" In a huge manor, Wangsa was showing Tang Kai around his new villa, his face practically screaming ’Praise my taste’, leaving Tang Kai with no choice but to play along. "Very beautiful." Indeed. The architecture was unique. The scenery was lovely. A clear creek flowed through the garden, slightly larger than the Tang Family’s. "Heh heh, you’re too kind." Upon hearing it, Wangsa chuckled modestly. In the past, he could only rely on collecting ’passing fees’ to earn extra income, always tight on cash, as his family did not give him much money. Now, owning wealth he couldn’t have imagined before, he’s feeling a bit dizzy with it all. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have spent two hundred million dollars on a yacht. Now, building a manor without batting an eye. Today, the yacht has already been delivered, and in terms of price, it definitely ranks among the top five yachts in the world, something only a true local tyrant can afford. At that time, overwhelmed with excitement, he lived on the yacht for half a month. Turn left. Turn right. Sailed around the ocean, attracting countless eyes. Then, a tragedy happened. He held a public position, and although he delegated work, leaving him with little to do, once his family investigated, they quickly found out about his yacht purchase, resulting in a stir-fry bamboo shoot, as it were. It hurt. His father really beat him. But in the end, he was forgiven, only forbidden from sailing it back to Thailand as it was too ostentatious. Therefore, like before, it’s always moored in the small island bay owned by Tang Kai; if not for the large bay, it almost wouldn’t fit. It’s too big. Two hundred million dollars, costing over a billion RMB to build, it’s essentially a big ship, with over a hundred people on board not being an issue. However, the maintenance costs are extremely high. Every year, it burns the equivalent of a Rolls-Royce. Heart-wrenching. But compared to his fondness for it, Wangsa could only endure the heartache and spend. Moreover, Tang Kai was also planning to build a yacht, perhaps saving quite a bit; if all else fails, it’s at least keeping the benefits within the family. Walking, chatting. Before long. "Do you know about the World Organization?" Tang Kai suddenly asked. "I know." Wangsa nodded. "What do you think?" Tang Kai asked. Hearing this, Wangsa’s eyes sharpened. "It’s pretty good, especially for Myanmar. In the past, countries receiving zero-interest loans were only nominally friends, often not having interacted for decades. Now, they’re solidified allies." In a few simple words, he grasped the essence. "Right." Tang Kai thought the same, "What’s Thailand’s stance?" "Waiting and watching." Wangsa replied. This issue, for the general public, had already faded over the past few days, but for the upper class in the relevant countries, interest never waned, with constant debates. "What are your personal thoughts?" Tang Kai inquired further. "Join." Wangsa’s stance was firm. Money. That’s his position. Currently, most of his earnings come from Myanmar. As his key financial source, if these two countries were to have a fallout over this matter, would it impact his interests? Affect his family’s interests? It’s possible. Therefore, signing a harmless contract was the way to go. Looking at Tang Kai. "Why ask about this?" Wangsa questioned in return. "Mainly worried that if it stalls there, we might find ourselves in a passive situation." Tang Kai was not there to lobby anyone, nor had anyone asked him to lobby, rather to express an opinion, a concern. "Makes sense." Saying that, Wangsa suddenly smiled. "Rest assured." "Our luck should be good, things will develop in our favor." "Oh?" Tang Kai’s eyes lit up. "Any news?" "No." Wangsa shook his head. "However, I know that many people are making money through Myanmar." He didn’t have any insider information, he just knew that the power of capital is strong, and with sudden events, decisions aren’t made instantaneously. So, there hasn’t been any push yet. Currently, it’s just the initial strategy of the upper class, but once strong forces get involved, the wind could shift dramatically. For instance, the family behind him, with a bit of effort, could easily change this outcome. In Thailand, the military. is the party with the strongest voice. However, without necessity, they’d generally avoid making such moves; much depends on subsequent developments as the family needs to weigh things up. Rash statements reflect immaturity, and as for his own stance, it’s relatively impulsive. "Hmm." Tang Kai concurred. Capital, often determines many things. "In the future, please look after Hummingbird." Tang Kai shifted the topic, as the main purpose of his trip to Thailand was to meet a few of Hummingbird’s partners in Thailand, whom he all happened to know. Wangsa, along with two other families. Wangsa has a military background. The second, has royal connections, and is in business. The third, is a political family. That is to say, the three together could get almost anything done in Thailand; among thirty-nine countries, there happened to be partners from six nations he was acquainted with, thus traveling and visiting simultaneously. Tang Qing is busy. He’s helping to share the load. "Haha, no problem, helping Hummingbird is also helping myself." Wangsa laughed heartily. Regarding this matter, he had been looking forward to it for a long time. Outside, Tang Qing was called ’The Child of Destiny’ amassing a trillion in wealth in a few years—could any ordinary person achieve that? Now, finally having the chance to collaborate. It’s just, Tang Qing didn’t just approach him but three families, which was a bit of a letdown, but bore no grudge. After all, Tang Qing wasn’t targeting him in particular but treated all partners this way. Thus, everyone being in the same boat didn’t matter much. Moreover, if it were only his family, honestly, the pressure would be overwhelming; his family doesn’t have the power to block out the sky. If Hummingbird wanted to bypass policy barriers, their family’s strength alone wasn’t enough. Seek help then? No. We have dignity too. Thus, three families are just right. If something happens, it’s easier to handle; with everyone pulling some weight, it’s sorted. At the same time, you can’t help but admire Tang Qing’s business acumen. Relationship-based business is inherently unstable, but that’s under normal circumstances. But, if you find the right path. Things go incredibly smoothly moving forward. Provide land, provide funds, provide connections. Each provides a bit, and the building quickly rises. ... Shanghai Stock Market. Comet Group. Headquarters. After the meeting ended, Pu Chaodong led Tang Qing to the Headline Business Department. Previously, half of the Comet Video building was empty, but with the establishment of the Headline department, a large influx of new employees almost filled it up. This fullness, is relative; with an extremely wide office area, at a glance, it doesn’t seem like many people. If according to the typical office density, it could easily accommodate five times the number. However, Tang Qing would rather build a new building than lower his team’s working environment. Good treatment, good environment, can lead to laziness, but can also spur people to work hard, for fear of losing it. As proven by the fact that his generosity is strategic, many people seeing the environment at a former employee’s new company have a change of heart. --- Never leaving; I won’t settle for a cramped cubicle workspace.
