NOVPUBChapter 675: Chapter 485: Fang Nianhan鈥檚 Shock Chapter 675 -485: Fang Nianhan鈥檚 Shock Liu Wei, the young master Liu鈥檚 gathering ended in the evening, not because Liu Wei was a poor host芒鈧€漮n the contrary, he had arranged a lavish dinner and nightlife was just beginning.
However, Chu Mo had more important matters and naturally couldn鈥檛 afford to hang around with a bunch of second-generation youths causing a ruckus all night.
At eight o鈥檆lock in the evening, the Capital City鈥檚 Futong Building was bustling, to say the least.
The street in front of the Futong Building had traffic control implemented in advance.
By seven o鈥檆lock, an hour before the party was to begin, the area was already jammed with various luxury cars.
Tonight, a high-profile charity gala was to be held here.
Across Hua Country, any family with a bit of influence had been invited.
...
Of course, when we talk about families with influence here, we鈥檙e referring to those with assets of at least ten billion.
Anyone falling below this threshold simply wasn鈥檛 qualified to set foot in the place.
The host of the gala was the Yang family of Capital City.
As the third-ranking behemoth among Hua Country鈥檚 eight major families, boasting assets of fifteen trillion, when the Yang family took the lead, naturally no one dared to decline their invitation.
As an emerging family of Modu and also an entity far surpassing the four great families of Modu, Chu Mo, of course, received such an invitation.
In fact, not only Chu Mo but also Zhan Bingxue, the chairman of Bafang International, Qin Zixuan, the chairman of Shi Yuan Entertainment, Dong Xun鈥檈r, the chairman of Modu鈥檚 three tallest buildings, and Yang Xuan and Liang Bing, directors of the Longevity Club, all received an invitation.
The few spokespeople around Chu Mo each possessed a net worth of hundreds of billions.
潡堭潣佛潟橉潡?co
At least on the surface, they were all powerful women renowned in Modu.
Although their status might have seemed somewhat inferior to the great families of Modu, in reality, the wealth controlled by these few spokespeople far exceeded the combined assets of those families.
Of course, all these spokespersons were led by Chu Mo.
Since he was attending the gala, there was no need for them to attend, and so they naturally all abstained.
What鈥檚 worth mentioning is that apart from Modu鈥檚 four established families, Lu Siyue, the young mistress of the Lu family, also received an invitation as a particularly unique presence.
If it were merely based on the identity of the Lu family鈥檚 young mistress, Lu Siyue would not have been qualified to attend the gala.
After all, even the young masters of Modu weren鈥檛 eligible to participate, let alone a mistress who couldn鈥檛 inherit the Lu family business.
However, due to the successful hosting of the world鈥檚 number one goddess competition some time ago, Lu Siyue, who was the planner behind the scenes, came to be known by the public.
The Spring Beauty cosmetics controlled by Lu Siyue had become one of the world鈥檚 top ten best-selling brands.
With the world鈥檚 number one goddess, Amy Belle, officially becoming the spokesperson for Spring Beauty, the company鈥檚 market value shot up from a mere two hundred million to an increase by hundreds of times.
With the additional investment from Chu Mo, Spring Beauty now led the cosmetic industry in Hua Country, amassing assets of thirty-eight point five billion.
Lu Siyue was attending the gala in the capacity of chairman of Spring Beauty Cosmetics company, not as the young mistress of Modu鈥檚 Lu family.
Because of the special relationship between Chu Mo and the Lu family, Chu Mo did not hinder Lu Siyue鈥檚 plans.
Strictly speaking, this gala should be considered Lu Siyue鈥檚 debut as a top-tier magnate, and Chu Mo naturally found no reason to object.
Chu Mo didn鈥檛 bring many people with him, with the exception of Fan Gao and Jiang Tao; he did not bring a single female companion.
Originally, he wanted to bring Jiang Rourou along, but this girl with the strength of a half-step Grandmaster just couldn鈥檛 bear to part with her grandfather, Jiang Dingnan, and was determined to stay by his side.
As one of Hua Country鈥檚 ten great martial arts Great Grandmasters, Jiang Dingnan was thoroughly fed up with these kinds of gatherings, filled with hypocrisy and cunning businessmen, so the grandfather and granddaughter did not attend.
Chu Mo didn鈥檛 insist.
He walked into the Futong Building with Fan Gao and Jiang Tao by his side.
After presenting their invitation, the three of them were ushered into the second-floor VIP hall.
The entire venue was resplendent, and it was evident that the Yang family had put great effort into ensuring the smooth running of the gala.
The party was organized in a buffet style, and there was an array of exquisite delicacies all around.
If one wasn鈥檛 at the party for business, this place would be heaven for food lovers芒鈧€漚balone, lobster, fine desserts, and even the wine held by the waiters was top-quality, priced at more than a hundred thousand a bottle.
Upon entering the hall, Chu Mo saw guests coming and going all around, and without exception, everyone was dressed in their best suits.
Naturally, since the party had a threshold, anyone with assets below ten billion simply didn鈥檛 qualify to enter.
This resulted in a situation where there were practically no gentlemen under the age of thirty-five, and the usual snobbish wealthy second-generation youths were nowhere to be seen.
On the other hand, most of the women present were young and attractive.
Aside from those who accompanied the Family Heads, the majority of the women were under thirty.
It seemed that those a bit older wouldn鈥檛 be chosen by these tycoons.
Having just celebrated his twenty-sixth birthday not long ago, Chu Mo was probably the youngest among the throng of top-tier wealthy men with pot bellies coming and going.
Up until this moment, he hadn鈥檛 seen anyone close to his age.
Indeed, even across the whole of Hua Country, the number of people who had achieved what Chu Mo had done single-handedly could really be counted on one hand.
Chu Mo casually scanned the room.
The guests were walking about, but it was clear that they had formed various small groups.
Some were strangers, some were familiar, and among those he recognized were the richest man, Zhang Dahua, Alibaba鈥檚 chairman, Ma Yu, and Shangyuan Entertainment鈥檚 chairman, Ren Wenxuan, and others.
