Where there are interests.
Merchants will go.
Jiao Han also admitted she was a merchant, whose mind was occupied daily with considerations of investment and return, profit and scale. She wasn’t actually interested in money; what intrigued her was the process of making it.
The people she met.
The objects she saw.
The events she encountered.
These were far more meaningful than those cold numbers.
"Thump, thump, thump~~"
At this moment,
the door of the hotel room sounded.
Turning her head,
through the screen on the wall,
Jiao Han saw the face of her female assistant.
This was one of the surprises the hotel had in store for her—each room had a surveillance camera installed near the door, so when someone knocked outside, the TV screen inside would automatically switch to the camera feed.
It wasn’t exactly state-of-the-art technology,
but it was quite creative.
Upon opening the door,
she saw a happy smile on her assistant’s face.
"President Jiao, the access application we just submitted got a response in less than ten minutes—approved. They replied asking you to bring your capital verification accounts yourself and go to the National Tourism Bureau tomorrow morning to collect the documents."
"That fast?"
Jiao Han was taken aback.
Ten minutes.
Are you sure they could review the dozens of pages of documents the company submitted?
"Yes," the assistant nodded vigorously, finding it unbelievable herself. You’d expect it to take at least three working days, or at the very least one working day. At the worst, they’d have a meeting to discuss it.
But ten minutes,
And the results were already out.
Talk about lightning speed.
After the assistant left,
Jiao Han made several phone calls and got the same response—all the companies that had cooperated with her received ’approved’ emails, nearly simultaneously.
Thinking about it,
she even wondered if they were just approving any application that came their way, or worse, she maliciously speculated that they might be eagerly ’reeling them in’ for some unspeakable purpose.
Well,
she’d see tomorrow.
After all, it was just speculation.
There were many competitors this time.
What troubled her the most wasn’t the well-off international capital, but those tycoons who had recovered from their illnesses. Grateful to this place and eyeing the huge prospects of the project, there would certainly be some who would spare no expense to secure some property.
Such irrationality,
Business decisions laced with emotion,
posed the greatest variable.
...
On the top floor of the hotel where Jiao Han was staying,
Here,
the entire floor consisted of VIP Suites.
It was equivalent to Presidential Suites, but that kind of moniker wasn’t popular here; it sounded tacky. Therefore, most of the best suites were designated as VIP Suites, although some people still tended to call them Presidential Suites.
He Yi,
Chinese,
Seventy-one years old,
with a net worth exceeding four billion dollars.
Afflicted with a terminal illness.
At the time, the doctor said he had less than a week to live, a prognosis provided by some of the top figures in the medical field. However, on the fourth day, relying on a breathing machine to stay alive, he heard hope.
Cancer could be treated here.
Without hesitation,
He immediately booked a room and got on his private jet to seek medical treatment. Even ants will fight for their lives, much less a human being. He had no wish to die, otherwise, his vast fortune would just end up benefiting the church.
He had no children.
He once had a will, stating that his assets would be donated to the church upon his death. Having arrived here with a severe illness, he made use of the emergency channel, was admitted to the hospital immediately, and just one treatment stabilized his condition.
He was out of critical danger.
After a week in the hospital,
He could already get out of bed and move around freely, and his weak body seemed to regain strength. The doctor told him that by the end of the month, he would basically be cured, which made him feel as if he had been reborn.
Before death.
The lingering attachment to the world.
Is unimaginable to most people.
Now.
The world he saw.
Was different from that of most people; where they saw the familiar, he saw a brand-new world, the sunlight, the air, even the people he once thought of as mortal enemies now seemed significantly cuter.
Compared to death.
What do all these grudges matter?
Due to the stabilization of his illness.
He was released from the hospital ahead of schedule.
So far, he had been staying at the hotel for nearly a week, going to the hospital for treatment every day. The discomfort in his body was decreasing, and his previously somewhat slow brain had also become much clearer.
At this moment.
His old butler was reporting to him.
"Master, we have obtained the access qualifications. The auction will start the day after tomorrow. Once we submit the proof of funds for accounts verification tomorrow and get the procedures, they will give us detailed information about the auction lots."
"Mm, that’s good," He Yi nodded with satisfaction.
This time, participating in the auction, he also wanted to acquire some land, not so much to make a lot of money but to give back to this place. After all, his illness had cost him hundreds of millions of dollars without being cured.
Logically speaking. 𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑝𝑢𝑏.𝘤𝑜𝘮
No illness should cost that much.
A million dollars at most would be the ceiling.
Yet.
His treatment was different from other people, who could only go to the hospital and use approved drugs; some with connections might try experimental drugs not yet approved for the market.
But his case was the third kind.
---Investing in medical research institutions.
He spent a lot of money.
He bought a research team specifically to study how to cure his cancer. After spending hundreds of millions of dollars, they never produced effective treatment drugs, and his health nearly collapsed.
Here, however,
He only spent over two hundred thousand Asia Dollars.
And it cured him.
It really made him feel that life is unpredictable. At the time, he even wanted to pay more for the medical fees to show his gratitude, but the hospital firmly refused, saying they had regulations and could not make such transactions.
In the end.
He thought of investing here.
For the hospital that saved his life.
He Yi had great trust.
He planned to come back here every year for a check-up. As for other hospitals, he no longer had faith in them, "If you can’t cure my illness, why should I trust you?" He planned to sell off the research institute once he returned.
Investing here.
Buying a good location.
To build a house and spend his remaining life well.
Pretty good.
The tourism real estate.
This piece of cake.
Was now almost universally seen as a sure-fire investment. It was just a pity that when he wanted to buy a villa resort hotel from a businessman named Tang Kai before,
The guy flat-out refused to sell.
That location.
He had seen it.
And it really was excellent, and large.
The villa gardens were uniquely styled, and amongst those of similar scale and location, only the Myanmar Asia Chamber of Commerce’s villa resort hotel could compare. It was said that Tang Kai spent less than two hundred million Asia Dollars on the land and construction.
In a few more years.
Those twenty-odd villas.
Might sell for one billion each.
After inquiring further.
He learned that this person was also highly connected here and didn’t lack money at all. Trying to buy from him likely wasn’t an issue money could solve, and gradually, everyone came to realize that this land wouldn’t be put on sale.
And thus, they gave up the idea of acquisition.
However.
Regarding Tang Kai.
He was someone he wanted to meet.
Both being Chinese.
It would be best to make a friend. Tang Kai, the chairman of the Thailand Chinese Chamber of Commerce, was also the biggest Chinese businessman in Myanmar and was quite the legendary figure. He Yi was very curious.
