Chapter 397 - The Start of the System Upgrade



Chapter 397: The Start of the System Upgrade

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Everyone was ready to help Wang Yan. They stopped drinking and started to call for help everywhere.

The young ladies and young masters who were frivolous would be able to unleash their strength when they encountered something interesting.

At 12:30 pm, a row of cars appeared on South Harbour Green Road.

The first was Brother Hu’s G500, followed by the new F12, Liu Ye’s Laferrari, and a vast number of sports cars.

More than 100 top-class luxury cars roared as they rushed towards the Sunrise Building. Everywhere they passed, there were cries of surprise.

Fortunately, it was late enough in the night. Otherwise, it was almost inevitable that they would cause traffic jams.

The motorcade stopped in front of the entrance of the underground parking lot of the Sunrise Building for a moment.

There was an automatic railing at the entrance of the parking lot. No one was on duty. If they had Bluetooth, they would enter, but if they didn’t, they would stop.

According to the plan, Brother Hu should wait for the experts behind the car to unlock the control box and switch to wait mode.

However, Brother Hu was too excited tonight. When he saw the unguarded railing, the young master lost his patience. He stepped on the accelerator and rushed over.

The G500 roared and knocked down the railing. A scratch appeared on the bumper of the car.

The car just had to be fixed. Big deal!

Thrill was the most important thing!

The G500 broke through the roadblock and entered the parking lot, with the many luxury cars following behind it.

After entering the underground, Black Tiger rolled down the window and shouted to the back, “Spread out, everyone will have their own area, so do whatever you want!”

More than 100 luxury cars were recklessly flying about in the parking lot. Young masters and young ladies were laughing as they discussed where to park and how to park.

This was not the end. There were still new cars constantly coming.

Sports cars would stop in between two parking spaces and thereby take up two spaces.

There were more than 400 parking spaces under Sunrise. Currently, there were about 30 cars parked there. The remaining 400 or so empty spaces were filled up by 200 luxury cars in half an hour.

The 30 cars originally in there were backup cars that people usually didn’t drive out of the house.

According to Wang Yan, there would be no problem parking there for three days.

Not to mention three days, it would be easy to stay in the same spot for half a month. Who else would be parking here?

Chu Xin had three cars. They were driven by herself, her friend, and her designated driver. Her designated driver got off the mini and looked around the parking lot, shivering.

Naturally, with 200 cars, they couldn’t all be supercars, but it was still a luxury car show.

However, the location of the show was a bit strange.

“Let’s start the retreat!”

Zhou Jianwu waved his hand and got into Black Tiger’s car with Chu Xin and Liu Ye.

“Guys, let’s go to Myst. Today, Young Master Wang is treating. I didn’t dare to drink much just now, but now, let’s all have fun!”

Everyone laughed. There were four or five of them squeezed into a car heading straight for Myst Club.

On the G500, Chu Xin was still not satisfied. She mumbled unhappily, “Why didn’t I see the security guard? It’s so boring…”

“He’s probably sleeping?”

“Haha! When he wakes up tomorrow, he’ll make them suffer!”

“Young Master Wang is really bad!”

“That’s right, he’s free-spirited. He’s the type to do bad things!”

“Hahahaha!”

Excited laughter echoed throughout the entire journey.

..

In the building’s duty room, the security guards on night duty were fast asleep.

In a commercial office building, there was nothing to lose. The duty had always been to sleep.

Moreover, the security guards were especially tired today. Ever since the shift started, they had been busy dealing with the renovation workers on the 18th and 19th floors.

They bared with the noise until 9:00 pm and finally invited the workers out. When they returned downstairs, their ears were buzzing and their temples were throbbing.

The noise coming from the underground parking lot was more subtle than a mosquito’s humming. They really couldn’t hear it.

That was even better. Tomorrow would be a surprise for everyone in the Sunrise Building.

..

At the Myst Club, Wang Yan and Huang Yiqing were waiting in the front hall, hugging the returning club members warmly.

“Let’s not express more gratitude. We won’t leave until we’re drunk!”

Two private rooms and five big cards were all the space that these people could book.

At this time, Myst was very popular. From time to time, A-list celebrities would appear. Moreover, they would also spend a lot with the many beautiful women there. Thus, the club would be full everyday.

The reservation was made with everyone’s effort, and the treat was paid by the young master alone.

Wang Yan knew what these princesses and young masters liked. He immediately ordered 88 bottles of Ace of Spades. All the waiters in the club were mobilized. They held up fireworks ribbons and lined up in a long line, attracting lots of attention.

It did not only attract lots of attention, but the attention of everyone present in the club.

Just the Champagne alone cost 800,000 yuan. Together with the other drinks, snacks, and venue, the cost was estimated at 1.2 million yuan.

It was hard to say if Weibo would explode with comments tomorrow. Anyway, the entertainment industry in Shanghai’s nightclubs was booming.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the bar. Both the obedient and wild nightclub models outside swarmed toward Myst.

There was usually a wave of ebbing from 1:30 to 2:00 am, where the number of customers would be decreasing. However today, the number kept on increasing, and the club became packed.

However, those things had nothing to do with Wang Yan.

After a round of toasts in the bar outside, the young master returned to his private room and hid in a corner to rest.

Those who liked to cause trouble went to play in the crowd outside. In the end, there were only a few quiet people left, and they were the ones who were the closest with Wang Yan.

Everyone slowly drank and chatted in a low voice.

Chu Xin’s stamina was depleting fast. After two waves, he tormented himself until he was buzzed. He lazily lay beside Wang Yan.

“Little brother, today, you can be considered to have settled down in the SSCC. Congratulations!”

“F*ck!”

Black Tiger replied sarcastically. He still had many opinions about the club.

“This kind of nonsense can only be used today. If anything serious happens, then they’re all a bunch of sand sculptures!”

“You’re the one who’s having the most fun!” Liu Ye rolled his eyes at him.

When Wang Yan heard about the incident with the railing, he asked with a smile, “Do you want me to reimburse you for the car damages?”

“Get lost! I was the one who wanted to have fun. Why would I need you to pay for it?”

Black Tiger’s friends who liked fighting were all present. When they saw the situation, they immediately jeered, “Let’s have another boxing match. We like fun, let’s have fun!”

“I have no problem with that.”

Young Master Wang smiled. Black Tiger immediately understood. He picked up the wine bottle and went to lecture Brother Jian.

Chu Xin gently pushed Wang Yan and softly advised him, “You’ve spent your money. Don’t waste it. Go and get another round of drinks!”

Oh, she was a good wife who knew what she was doing!

Young Master Wang was almost done resting. He pulled Zhou Jianwu and went to patrol the venue again.

In the eyes of many outsiders, the money spent today was not worth it.

He called for 200 cars and parked them just for three to five days. In the end, he had spent 1.2 million on a treat. It sounded like a huge loss.

However, as long as he gained experience, Young Master Wang would not lose no matter how much he spent.

More importantly, he would become famous.

There were many hidden talents in SSCC. As an outsider, Wang Yan’s only advantage were his driving skills.

However, competitions couldn’t happen frequently, and it was even more impossible for Wang Yan to participate in every match. So, how could he become the main man within a short period?

Today was the best opportunity.

First, organize a seemingly “ridiculous” activity, then spend money to establish prestige.

His previous actions had already won the admiration of a large group of young and playful rich second-generation children. They would then strengthen the image of him being a forthright and generous person. When word of this spread, his reputation would be established.

The reason why everything went smoothly today was mainly that Chu Xin, Zhou Jianwu, Huang Yiqing, and the others were working hard to push Wang Yan forward, giving lots of face to him, who was still a rookie.

However, the outsiders could not see the details.

In fact, many of the friends who came to help did not know what was going on.

When Young Master Wang threw in more than a million yuan, forget about what was going on. Just repeat all these, and Wang Shenniu would be done for!

..

When they went out to toast again, Young Master Wang was still the most attractive one in the room, and everyone responded to his call.

Moreover, the rumors were getting more and more serious.

Until now, no one knew exactly what Wang Yan’s family did.

However, that wasn’t important.

Based on his performance, they could just imagine it!

In any case, they were all boasting. They could brag as much as they wanted, and they could enjoy the looks of admiration and amazement from the people around them. Why not?

The legend of Fourth Master Qiao has been strengthened over and over again at the wine table.

By the fifteenth year of the new century, the nature of mankind was still the same.

Wherever he went, he would be looked up to. Wang Yan was already the real Young Master Wang.

The composition of the SSCC was very complicated, but Wang Yan became an extremely special person the moment he appeared. This money was really not wasted.

..

In the other box, there was a group of young entrepreneurs who had their own businesses and were relatively older. They were at least in their early 30s.

Among them, Huang Yiqing was accompanied by a big brother. His surname was Zhang, and he was a well-known real estate developer in Harbour Green.

Brother Zhang and Wang Yan drank three glasses of wine and chatted back and forth three times.

On the third time, he pulled Wang Yan to a corner of the room and chatted a little deeper.

“Little Yan, did you have a misunderstanding with Old Cao?”

Wang Yan raised his eyebrows. “Brother Zhang, are you talking about CEO Cao from Sunrise Real Estate?”

“Yes! We’re quite close. If you have something you would like to do, I can be your middleman and sit down to chat.”

The other party had good intentions and had expressed his approval of Wang Yan. Wang Yan was grateful.

“Thank you, Brother Zhang! If we really need to sit down to talk, I’ll definitely ask you.”

He was grateful, but there was no need.

Brother Zhang was quite regretful. He asked in puzzlement, “Old Cao is usually quite low-key? How did he offend you to such an extent?”

There was no need to hide this matter. Wang Yan smiled and said a simple sentence.

“I bid for CEO Cao’s two-story office building. CEO Cao interfered and I had to spend an additional 80 million.”

Brother Zhang was shocked.

80 million was not a small amount of money. If it was him, it would be enough to form a deadly enmity.

However, he still did not believe it.

“Are you sure? Old Cao sold the building and you bought the building. How could this happen in business? Is it a misunderstanding?”

“The specific situation is a little complicated, but there is no misunderstanding.”

Wang Yan was very sure.

The news came from Huang Guangliang. Huang had been staring at the whole case for a year and a half. He was extremely familiar with Sunrise’s situation. There was no reason for him to make a mistake.

Moreover, Manager Ge Limei’s attitude was very unfriendly from the beginning. It was very important proof.

“Sigh…”

Brother Zhang shook his head and sighed. He didn’t try to persuade Wang Yan anymore. He was just a little emotional.

“Old Cao hasn’t had a good time in the past two years. He has been making stupid moves more regularly. I wonder how long his descendants will be able to hold onto that Sunrise Building…”

Hmm?

Wang Yan’s heart moved slightly.

When they invited the competent department at noon, the leaders of Industry and Commerce had also casually commented that Sunrise was on the decline.

It seemed that CEO Cao’s situation was indeed not good?

Sunrise Building’s location was extremely good. If only there was an opportunity in the future.

Thoughts flashed through Wang Yan’s mind, but he did not think so much about it.

Right now, his strength was still far from enough. He was temporarily not qualified to think so much.

The most important thing at the moment was to teach Sunrise a lesson.

In particular, to teach that property manager Ge Limei a lesson.

Wang Yan wasn’t sure of CEO Cao’s role in the whole thing, but it didn’t matter. If he injures the dog, its owner would naturally come forward.

You want to play with me?

You’re thinking too much!

After chatting with Brother Zhang for a while and exchanging contact details, Wang Yan returned to his friend’s side and continued to play.

After playing crazily until 4:00 am, everyone returned to enjoy themselves.

In the end, the bill increased to 1,350,000 yuan. Young Master Wang calmly paid the bill and instantly became the most dazzling star of the club’s younger generation.

If he didn’t want to deal with those rich second-generation kids, he had to be the recognized big brother. Wang Yan thought so and did the same.

The effect hadn’t been seen yet, but when they said goodbye to each other, Brother Hu suddenly pulled him aside and said a few drunken words.

“Huang Yiqing is a pure idiot. This lousy club will be in his hands sooner or later, and now there’s no cohesion left… Don’t get involved with the crap inside. Stay away from it. If you can’t, pull people out to play alone…”

It was all meaningless venting, but the last sentence made Wang Yan’s heart skip a beat.

The leader’s virtue didn’t match his position. Naturally, that position should be taken by someone with virtue.

I, Wang Yan, will have the opportunity to raise a flag and set up a mountain.

Raise the target a little higher and swallow the entire SSCC. How great will that be?

The current SSCC structure was loose. It seemed to be of no use, but in fact, it was just because the founder had no ability and no popularity.

There were hidden talents and endless potential among the members. If the leader was someone capable, leading everyone soar high in the industry, it really wasn’t an illusion.

The SCC located in the capital was much more impressive than the SSCC.

This same organization, different leaders. This difference, however, was too big.

The thoughts flashed through his mind again, but Young Master Wang still didn’t think deeply.

Let nature take its course and pay attention to the present. If there was a chance, Wang Yan wouldn’t miss it.

..

At eight in the morning, Young Master Wang was still catching up on his sleep. The Sunrise Building had exploded.

With such a large office building, 400 or so parking spaces was already barely enough. It was only enough for the higher-ups the various companies to use.

The property rights were in the hands of the property management. One space after another was rented out, and every space had an owner.

But now, when it was time for work, they have nowhere to park their vehicles!

The land in the Lu Family’s possession was extremely valuable. There were only so many parking spaces, and they had a clear right to use them. Where could they find a parking space at the last minute?

Rows of commuting cars blocked the entrance of the underground parking lot. They circled around and blocked the nearby roads. There was nowhere to park and nowhere to go.

It was already the morning rush hour, so it was crowded enough. If an accident were to happen…

Fine, let’s all stand guard then.

Sunrise Real Estate’s hotline was immediately flooded with calls.

Manager Ge rushed over, gritted his teeth, and threw his car to the side of the road. He rushed into the parking lot and almost went crazy when he saw the scene in front of him.

“F*ck! Where did all these cars come from?”

He didn’t know.

The security guard on night duty hid his head and didn’t dare to make a sound.

The deputy asked carefully, “Should we call the police?”

“Go ahead! What are you waiting for?”

The police came, but they didn’t get involved.

“This is not our responsibility. You can look for the joint law enforcement department.”

The former city enforcement officer also came, but even he couldn’t do anything.

“Contact the car owners and communicate with them.”

Many cars had number plates on the control panel in the driver’s cab, with the phone numbers of the car owners written on them.

Manager Ge passed by the front of Liu Ye’s car. He took a glance at the cell phone number 1331333333 and pretended not to see it. He picked the most inconspicuous number and dialed it.

After a long while, the call went through.

Manager Ge said weakly, “Hi, I’m from Sunrise Building’s property…”

“F*ck you, are you crazy? ! You’re calling me so f*cking early in the morning, you stupid b*stard!”

He spat angrily and hung up.

He dialed again, but the phone was off.

Manager Ge looked pitifully at the joint law enforcement staff. The other party pretended not to see him and surrounded the Laferrari in amazement.

Crying?

Even calling them dad wouldn’t work!

There were about 200 cars, half of which were supercars worth more than two million yuan each. With such a godly car, Laferrari, here, only a fool would care.

The deputy property manager was dumbfounded. He stared at Manager Ge, waiting for him to make a decision.

“Why don’t we… ask the traffic police to tow them away?”

The moment the hothead opened his mouth, everyone moved three meters away.

You can hand them over.

No, you can tow them away. Anyway, I don’t dare!

Of course, Manager Ge didn’t dare. It was obvious that he was here to cause trouble. If he had touched someone’s car, he wouldn’t have considered whether he could afford to pay for it.

Who was in the right wasn’t the main point at all. Right now, whoever had the bigger fist was in the right.

Manager Ge’s skinny body couldn’t take it!

No one was in charge of any department. They wouldn’t answer every day, and the place wouldn’t work. Every company there was still urging him. They were scolding the property management so much that Manager Ge was close to shutting himself up.

Just as he was in a terrible state, the boss finally called.

“What’s wrong with you? Huh? It’s so early in the morning, and my cell phone almost exploded with so many calls!”

“I…”

CEO Cao didn’t give Manager Ge a chance to explain himself, so he interrupted angrily.

“Solve it right now! If anyone comes to me about this in the afternoon, you’ll get it from me!”

Pa!

As soon as the call ended, Manager Ge really shut himself off.

How can I solve this?

I don’t even know who did it!

There was no other way. Manager Ge could only grit his teeth and call them one by one according to the contact information left in the car.

In the end.

There was a f*cking whitelist, but he couldn’t get through to any of them!

In less than an hour, Manager Ge was so exhausted that he almost vomited blood.

Just as he was comforting the tenants, CEO Cao suddenly called again and questioned, “Manager Ge, what’s wrong with you? Didn’t we agree not to let the renovation workers come up? Listen to the noise next door!”

Creak… creak… woo…

It seemed that more workers had been added, and it was even noisier than yesterday.

Pfft!

Manager Ge’s vision went black, and a mouthful of menstrual blood gushed up from his lower abdomen and rushed to his head.

Up until he fainted, he still didn’t know which God he had offended to befall this disaster upon him.

..

The stupid matter still hadn’t been resolved at noon.

Not only had it not been resolved, the owners hadn’t even been found.

Manager Ge was a little suspicious of Wang Yan, but he did not dare to investigate further.

How could a young foreigner have such a big influence in Shanghai?

President Jin was again tormented by the noise and the biochemical weapons. He called his son to confirm, “Say it again, where did that kid come from?”

Triple Xin made a solemn vow, “He’s definitely from Mine Province Agricultural Research Institute in Gujiao. Wangting Entertainment is a company that only opened in Shanghai, and it’s only been open for three months! Isn’t there detailed information on the auction notice?”

That was indeed the case, but President Jin was still very doubtful. “Are you sure that he’s not behind the load of cars?”

“Logically speaking, it’s impossible… no matter how powerful this man is in his hometown, this is Shanghai…”

Triple Xin’s face was bitter, and the confidence in his words was no longer there.

Father and son were both suspicious. Manager Ge grabbed his phone and entered the door with a pale face.

His eyes were filled with despair and death.

“CEO Cao just called…”

Jin Xin and his son felt their mouths dry and they felt something was wrong. “CEO Cao… What did you say?”

“We found the owner of the Laferrari. He said… that he was helping Young Master Wang.”

Gulp!

Triple Xin subconsciously gulped and his throat was dry.

Young Master Wang!

His surname was Wang. If it wasn’t Wang Yan, who else could it be? !

President Jin no longer held his head high and asked dryly, “Manager Ge, you are working for CEO Cao, CEO Cao should be…”

Manager Ge grinned, his smile even uglier than crying.

“It’s all thanks to me to have done it well, to have done it like this… President Jin, I will be leaving this afternoon, CEO Cao will personally communicate with that Young Master Wang. I couldn’t care more about your matters anymore, you can decide what to say and what not to say!”

President Jin was dumbfounded. He watched as Manager Ge walked out of the office like a stray dog with his head lowered and his back hunched.

After a long while, Triple Xin finally reacted and asked softly, “Dad, what should we do?”

“Let me think about it… let me see…”

President Jin’s heart was also in a mess. He couldn’t understand this sudden reversal.

However, before he could figure it out, in the afternoon, the second court of the Intermediate People’s Court sent him a notice of the time limit.

The former owner had a lot of side debts, which were complicated. It would have been difficult to figure it out in a short time, but under the push of Huang Guangliang, the first priority creditor proposed to the Intermediate People’s Court to get the rights to the back rent.

For the creditors, that bit of rent was a drop in the bucket.

But for President Jin and his son, the advantage they had taken was finally about to be spat out.

At this time, Wang Yan, due to the mediation of some middlemen in the club, met with CEO Cao in a relaxed state of mind.

President Zhang, as the eldest brother, organized a tea party. Both parties sat down and chatted.

The final result was very friendly.

Manager Ge was laid off, and Sunrise Real Estate did its best to help Wangting Entertainment clear the place and give them all the convenience in terms of decoration.

In the end, Wangting Entertainment’s property fee was reduced for two years.

They spent 1.35 million last night and earned back 4.5 million in the blink of an eye.

CEO Cao said that he wanted to make friends and admired young talents like Wang Yan the most in his life.

In fact, everyone understood that it was an apology.

Wang Yan alone couldn’t cause any big waves, but if those luxury cars were to stay in the Sunrise parking lot for two more days, CEO Cao’s face and reputation would all be lost.

CEO Cao didn’t have much of a relationship with Huang Yiqing’s father. Even if he did, Huang Yiqing wouldn’t be able to suppress Wang Yan at all.

The new Liu Ye, Zhou Jianwu, and Xia Yu were supporting the god of cars, not young master Huang.

President Zhang was old and had his reputation, but he couldn’t play with along those young masters. At most, he could only be a middleman.

In the end, no matter how much he thought about it, he could only lower his head in front of Wang Yan in order to resolve the situation.

No one could tell what CEO Cao was thinking. However, as a successful businessman, he was very qualified in terms of flexibility.

Was the result a happy ending?

In any case, Wang Yan was very happy.

The money was earned, the flag was raised, and the company could start renovating immediately. This trip to Shanghai could be said to be extremely successful.

When he returned to the company in the afternoon, Chu Hong called again and told him, “The credit card will arrive in Shanghai Tomorrow. I’ll get Chen Xi to send it to you.”

Young Master Wang opened the system panel and saw that his experience points had reached 782/62,500.

The money he spent to buy out the contract was the capital of Wangting Entertainment.

Recently, the only major thing that Wang Yan spent money on was the 1.35 million from yesterday.

However, it didn’t matter. The moment the credit card arrived tomorrow, he would swipe 17.18 million to recharge it on the major platforms. His experience points would immediately rush to 2,500/62,500.

Then, he would go to Industry and Commerce to hand in the stock rights change document.

The system would be upgraded to Level 10!
