In the distance.
Two faint voices reached Tang Qing’s ears.
"So what if he has money? It was all given by his dad anyway," one person said sourly.
"Why don’t you try being rich and having a dad?" his companion retorted on the spot.
"Just wait, I’ll definitely be richer than his dad in the future."
"That’s ambitious."
"Indeed..."
Hearing that person’s words.
Tang Qing couldn’t help but smile.
Really, so ’ambitious’, these words were still pretty good, at least they showed ambition. Some people’s words sound so strange, students are somewhat better, especially those passersby, acting as if having money is a sin, being poor really starts from the heart.
But only Tang Qing could hear all these.
Lin Jiaxue could only see some unfriendly faces.
Ignoring the various gazes around.
Lin Jiaxue held Tang Qing’s arm.
Heading toward the school campus, though it could get a bit hot, it wasn’t the hottest she had encountered.
Regular intense sports made her quite familiar with the heat, sometimes even more so – cough cough, Lin Jiaxue shook her little head, she was tormented everyday, her thoughts could no longer be naive, her imagination truly couldn’t be suppressed.
Noticing Lin Jiaxue’s forehead was dotted with fine beads of sweat.
Tang Qing planned to go back and push the scientists to come up with some portable cooling gadget, it would not only be convenient for himself, but maybe it could also make some money.
But he hadn’t walked far.
When Tang Qing saw a group of people coming out together, laughing and talking, and the crucial part was, there were quite a few acquaintances in the group, Tang Qing didn’t even know whom to greet first, just when he was slightly confused.
The approaching people had already spotted him.
"Student Tang."
"Boss Tang."
"Tang Qing."
Three different greetings, called out by three different people.
The first one was Vice Principal Qiu Jie.
The second came from Shen Yi’s father.
The third surprisingly came from Ge Feng, the one who sold Microcrystalline Technology to him, and also sold him some potassium transport vehicles, Tang Qing was really surprised by Ge Feng’s arrival, wondering what he was doing visiting Huaxia.
But soon.
The purpose of Ge Feng’s visit had reached Tang Qing’s ears, he was just passing by.
Great.
Looks like there’s no escaping it now.
Dragging Lin Jiaxue along.
Tang Qing walked over and greeted each one: "Mayor Shen, Principal Kong, Vice Principal Qiu, Big Brother Ge, President Mi, hello." Tang Qing knew five of them with President Mi, the Student Union president he met once at a school opening ceremony.
Lin Jiaxue also hurriedly greeted.
She only recognized Shen Wen and Ge Feng, and seeing strangers, she was a bit nervous.
The people also didn’t expect to meet Tang Qing at the school gate, Shen Wen looked at Tang Qing as if seeing a junior, very kindly, Principal Kong and Vice Principal Qiu were the same, Tang Qing was an outstanding student from their school.
Ge Feng also suddenly remembered that Tang Qing was studying at Fudan University.
Mi Rui was a bit confused; Tang Qing actually knew so many people, knowing Shen Wen was one thing, but he even knew members of overseas Chinese families, this was Ge Feng’s first visit to Huaxia.
"Do you know each other?"
Shen Wen curiously looked at Ge Feng and Tang Qing.
Ge Feng laughed and walked over to Tang Qing, shook his hand, and explained to them, "We met when Tang Qing visited the United States, he even bought a company from me. How’s that company doing recently?"
After selling the company to Tang Qing, he hadn’t kept an eye on it, continuously focusing on his other properties.
Tang Qing smiled and said, "It’s been okay, constantly researching and updating technology, and a new product will soon be launched." In fact, the new product was already developed, but the production equipment was still being installed and calibrated.
Soon, Tang Qing would make Microcrystalline Technology skyrocket.
"That’s good to hear. I was afraid it might cause you a loss, haha," Ge Feng laughed.
Tang Qing knowingly asked, "What brings you to Huaxia this time? Travel?"
Ge Feng shook his head, "No, this time I’m accompanying my father back for a family reunion, saw some relatives, and also came to Fudan University to see what contributions we can make here, planning to donate something.
We have decided to refurbish the sports stadium. Tomorrow, I have to accompany my father to Japan for a friend’s funeral. There’s hardly any time, and you’re still attending classes, so I didn’t contact you this time. Next time I have a chance, I’ll come specifically to hang out with you."
Ge Feng wouldn’t admit that he had forgotten Tang Qing was studying here. The Ge family is a political family in the United States, as soon as they returned, someone from the Foreign Affairs Department visited, then arranged for the leaders from the Shanghai Stock Market to receive them.
He didn’t even contact Chai Ren, nor was he aware of the relationship between Shen Wen and Chai Family, all just coincidences.
After talking about himself, Ge Feng turned to a portly middle-aged man next to him and introduced, "Dad, this is Tang Qing, the person who bought our solar energy company, a good friend of Mu Jian, Tang Qing, this is my father, Ge Tian."
"Mr. Ge, hello," Tang Qing nodded in greeting.
Looking at Ge Tian.
Information about Ge Tian flashed through Tang Qing’s mind.
What Ge Feng didn’t mention was that Ge Tian was also a senator in the United States Senate, holding no other position, as members of both the Senate and the House of Representatives are not allowed to hold any governmental office.
This position. 𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
is essentially equivalent to a delegate in Huaxia’s Renmin University, even slightly less powerful, yet his status is not low, considering each state in the United States only elects two Senators.
His status is quite high.
Perhaps one day when his term as a legislator ends, he might move to a core department in the US, you never know.
"So you are Tang Qing, impressive, young and successful." Seeing Tang Qing, Ge Tian also showed a kind smile, young, wealthy, and a friend of his son, each of such people is a quality connection.
"Haha, that’s what I thought too," Tang Qing chuckled ’cooperatively’.
Ge Tian thought Tang Qing would be a bit more modest, considering someone capable of nearly spending a hundred million dollars to buy a company should be ’a bit serious,’ but he didn’t expect this response.
He couldn’t help but burst out laughing, "Pfft... Haha, Tang Qing, I just love your personality."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Tang Qing didn’t want to linger with these ’adults’ any longer, and he said, "Gentlemen, you carry on with your business, I need to attend my class."
"Okay, let’s have lunch together. Dad, where did you arrange it?" Ge Feng asked.
Ge Tian shook his head, looking at Shen Wen, "I’m not sure, you should ask Mayor Shen."
"Pearl International Hotel, not far from here, do you know it, Tang Qing?" Shen Wen said, he had received a call from the Foreign Affairs Department the previous morning, asking him to properly host this top-ranked political and business family among overseas Chinese in the United States.
Apart from him.
even the highest official from the municipal committee who had just finished a meeting in Beijing was hurrying back to maintain these high-end overseas resources for the nation, and due to sensitive statuses, Ge Feng and his son didn’t go to Beijing.
"I know, I’ll head there immediately after my classes," Tang Qing didn’t refuse as there were many acquaintances around, and it wouldn’t have looked good to refuse.
"Alright, you go attend your class," Shen Wen said.
Shen Wen didn’t say much more; Tang Qing was a student, and although they could have made it so he didn’t need to attend classes at all with just one word, Tang Qing insisted, so there was no need for them to flaunt their authority.
Watching Tang Qing’s departing figure.
Curious, Shen Wen turned and asked, "Xiaofeng, what kind of business did Tang Qing buy from you?" He only knew about a few of Tang Qing’s businesses in the domestic market, but he had no idea about the ones overseas. In the blink of an eye, Tang Qing had expanded his business all the way to the United States.
Ge Feng explained, "A solar energy company. I was planning to invest in other areas, when he happened to travel to New York. After being introduced by a friend at a banquet I hosted, we quickly struck a deal."
"How much?" Shen Wen asked again.
"Just under a hundred million dollars, just a bit short," Ge Feng said nonchalantly, he had already reached the level of playing with capital, where a hundred million dollars indeed wasn’t a big amount for him.
But others didn’t think so.
Especially Mi Rui, who trembled and stared in shock, knowing Tang Qing was no ordinary man and was also wealthy, but spending nearly a hundred million dollars to buy a company in the United States seemed excessively extravagant.
"..." Shen Wen was speechless.
Well.
The world of the wealthy.
Shen Wen and Qiu Jie were merely surprised for a moment before mentally settling back to calm. They were both fairly familiar with Tang Qing’s business ventures and knew that Tang Qing’s uncle was an ultra-tycoon.
For the Tang family, this sum of money was substantial, yet only ’somewhat substantial’ in the end.
