Su Zhe successfully convinces Ba Afei and Mr. Gates to invest in the upcoming Hua Yi Oil stock, leveraging their past successes with the company. After discussing business, they tour an ancient garden, sparking interest in historical properties. Su Zhe reveals his significant contributions and conditions for a charity foundation, impressing Ba Afei and Mr. Gates, who offer their support.

Mr. Gates, you also have a foundation. I personally contributed one million dollars, and you also symbolically contributed zero, investing it into my foundation. This creates a cycle of mutual assistance!

However, I need to leverage your reputations to promote the implementation of this foundation!

One million dollars is merely symbolic.

For the world’s richest man and the stock god, it’s practically pocket change.

Su Zhe aims for everyone to see that his foundation of 830, Bill Gates, and Buffett have all donated money, so the credibility is undoubtedly ensured; naturally, there’s no issue.

Buffett agreed wholeheartedly, and Bill Gates also nodded: "I’ll have someone issue an announcement immediately."

No, let’s wait until tomorrow. There will be investment promotions in Shanghai tomorrow, and I’ll announce this matter there. I founded this foundation in Guangdu to help more people in need; in fact, you both can supervise the funds I support, each will have explanations and be disclosed to the public!

Su Zhe looked at Mark High on the side, and Mark immediately assured: "Mr. Su, you can rest assured, we absolutely guarantee openness and transparency!"

You are a young man worthy of my admiration.

Buffett looked at Su Zhe in a new light, being so young and having philanthropic awareness, especially in China, is absolutely commendable. After all, money is hard-earned, and coming out to do charity with one billion certainly requires spirit power, and moreover, being so open. Let’s go, I suppose the people at the conference center are getting anxious.

The world’s richest man and the stock god have actually vanished.

Su Zhe did not explain much to the two at the foundation, they wouldn’t understand Su Zhe’s ideas in the first place.

In reality, it’s about spending money for peace of mind.

Su Zhe is a reborn person; besides making his own life better, improving China is his inner wish. The nation doesn’t quite need his financial help, but the poor public, those children in the mountains who can’t eat well or dress warmly, need financial assistance more than anyone... perhaps, this is the significance of Su Zhe’s rebirth.

The business car drives toward the conference center, yet Su Zhe’s thoughts have already drifted far away.

In the afternoon, the first day’s conference of the Wealth Forum finally concluded successfully.

Whether more Chinese enterprises can enter the Fortune 500 list in the shortest time has become a topic that local entrepreneurs are most enthusiastic about.

Hai’er Group’s Zhang Ruiming, as the representative of Chinese companies, delivered the closing remarks at the conference, ambitiously explaining his internationalization strategy.

And many other Chinese entrepreneurs, during interviews, proposed revitalizing national industries and their schedules for entering the Fortune 500. They undoubtedly treat this annual meeting as a stage for declaration. After all, the Great Leader is here, they all want the leader to see their determination, not realizing such declarations are not taken into account by the Great Leader.

Sitting in their position, these warm slogans don’t bring actual achievements that excite them.

Pledges like Su Zhe’s base station, screen patents, and outlooks on the Internet.

These are what the Great Leaders value, not your high-pitched proclamation that you want to enter the Fortune 500 by 2005. Who wouldn’t city such slogans?!

It made many American entrepreneurs present feel quite awkward, thinking a bunch of Chinese entrepreneurs were like clowns. Fortunately, Su Zhe’s image salvaged much of the foreigners’ perception of entrepreneurs. At the banquet, the Great Leader once again thanked a host of American and European entrepreneurs for coming; the meal was undoubtedly very sumptuous.

Like in the morning, Su Zhe still dined with Chinese entrepreneurs at one table, but his status had clearly become the center position. As he earned the respect of many American entrepreneurs, Chinese entrepreneurs deeply felt the gap between themselves and Su Zhe. Even Huawei, Lenovo, and Hai’er were inferior in front of American industrial giants, except for Su Zhe; even the world’s number one CEO Jack Welch treated him with respect and admiration.

This is the gap.

At the dining table, a few fresh faces came—rich people from Xiang River and the city.

Former Chinese richest man Li Jiacheng, Guo Clan brothers, Li Zhaoji, Tan Yutong... and the city’s richest man, Wang He Hongshen!

This table had wealth value that little Yuan could not afford.

Mr. Su, we meet again.

Only now did Li Zhongcheng have the time to speak with Su Zhe.

A former acquaintance; however, compared to when he previously met Su Zhe, Su Zhe now—in terms of wealth, enterprise, and status—months ago cannot compare.

Making Li Jiacheng a bit envious in his heart.

Two months ago, Su Zhe was just an unknown mainland businessman, while he was the head of Chinese people; and two months later today, his name already resonated among Chinese people, sounded throughout the American business circle, and he even squeezed ahead to the position of Chinese head writing, although it doesn’t make Old Li feel hurt, it did depress him for a long time.

So upon seeing Su Zhe, the thoughts within his heart were indeed complex.

Mr. Li, long time no see. Su Zhe and Superman Li raised a glass, Ji Jiacheng chuckled, "Three days apart, one must look anew. Mr. Su is indeed remarkable. I heard this afternoon you went on a tour with the stock god and the world’s richest man?"

Yes, this was an itinerary set with Buffett in America!

It was just a coincidence!

Su Zhe’s gathering with Buffett, in fact, couldn’t escape the eyes of these bosses, but Su Zhe had nothing to hide. After all, within a few days, the whole world would know about his investment in Zhongcheng Company, so far it’s just warming up.

Having free dialogues with the stock god has always been Mr. Li’s wish, but matters reached a certain point. Superman Li shook his head, but in his eyes was a hint of hope: "However, being able to exchange words with Hua Stock’s god must be equally beneficial!"

Mr. Lishi, is there something you wish to consult about?

Su Zhe laughed, knowing full well that Old Heli had business to discuss with him. However, given the strength of Xiang River, the mainland still relies on Xiang River’s side regardless of listing, finance, or capital, so Li Jiacheng’s line, Su Zhe doesn’t wish to offend yet.

After all, it’s not time yet. Although his current status and assets are more robust than Li Jiacheng’s, talking about Xiang River’s top figure it’s still Li Jiacheng.

Of course, opposite him Li Zhaoji cannot be underestimated either; in the future, he would surpass Li Jiacheng, becoming another Xiang River powerhouse.

Moreover, the two are not on hostile terms.

Li Zhaoji ranks The Fourth in his family, known as Si Bao, a famous real estate tycoon in Xiang River, chairman and founder of 恒基兆业 and Xinji Real Estate.

In later years of 2020, his assets reached a peak of 304 billion dollars, surpassing Li Jiacheng, becoming the new richest man of Xiang River, breaking Li Jiacheng’s mythical reign as Xiang River’s richest man for over ten years.

This person cannot be underestimated.

His son is also named Li Jiacheng, and the pronunciation in Cantonese and Chinese is exactly the same. This matter deeply irritated Superman Li; both are in the real estate industry in Xiang River and have been competitors, reaching the point of inextinguishable rivalry.

Li Zhaoji’s intention in naming his son Li Cheng clearly implies that Superman Li can only be his son; in Superman Li’s eyes, this is Li Zhaoji’s revenge.
