NOVPUBChapter 855: Chapter 573: Lowering the Head Chapter 855 -573: Lowering the Head These past few days, three major events occurred in Capital City.
First, the leader in the cosmetics industry, Shi Ya Group, with assets worth eighty-five billion, merged into Human April Company.
Henceforth, the cosmetics industry in Hua Country entered a new era.
Originally just a new company, Human April suddenly became the largest domestic cosmetics company.
After swallowing Shi Ya Group, Human April鈥檚 market value exceeded one hundred and thirty-five billion.
In the cosmetics sector, no one within the whole territory of Hua Country could compete.
As the chairman of April Company, Lu Siyue officially stepped into the billion-dollar club, instantly gaining immense fame.
...
There were even rumors among the upper echelons that the head of the Lu family, Lord Lu of the metropolis, seemed intent on handing over the management of the Lu family鈥檚 business to Lu Siyue as well.
If this situation truly materialized, coupled with Lord Lu鈥檚 influential connections, Lu Siyue, barely twenty-seven this year, could potentially become the most famous female CEO in all of Hua Country, her status second only to Hua Country鈥檚 richest woman, Liu Manli.
Considering Liu Manli was already thirty-six years old and still without a boyfriend, the twenty-seven-year-old Lu Siyue might even become the new ultimate goddess in the hearts of all men in Hua Country.
The meteoric rise of Lu Siyue also signified that the younger generation was beginning to truly hold power.
Unlike the other endorsers around Chu Mo芒鈧€漺hether Zhan Bingxue, Dong Xun鈥檈r, Yang Xuan, or Liang Bing, who also controlled assets worth billions芒鈧€漷hey all opted for deliberate low profiles because of Chu Mo.
Aside from being well-known in the metropolis鈥檚 upper circles, Zhan Bingxue and the other endorsers were virtually unknown to the general populace of Hua Country.
However, Lu Siyue was different.
潡堭潣凁潡答潡?co
As the young miss of the Lu family, April Company was personally founded by Lu Siyue.
Furthermore, by bringing in the world鈥檚 number one goddess, Amy, as the spokesperson, April Company quickly became extremely high-profile, and as its chairman, Lu Siyue was recognized by the general public for the first time.
However, in the eyes of ordinary people, Lu Siyue鈥檚 success was backed by the Lu family鈥檚 efforts, unknown to them was Chu Mo鈥檚 involvement.
Because of this, Chu Mo did not demand that Lu Siyue keep a low profile and even for the company鈥檚 future development, the more exposure and popularity as the chairman Lu Siyue got, the more it helped to boost the company鈥檚 recognition.
Thus, unlike the other low-profile endorsers associated with Chu Mo, Lu Siyue would have her place in this year鈥檚 Forbes list.
With her net worth of one hundred and thirty-five billion, her ranking might even be within the top ten.
And if she could continue to inherit the Lu family鈥檚 hundred billion assets, her net worth might exceed two hundred fifty billion, possibly climbing into the top five on the Forbes list.
Because of this, Lu Siyue completely broke through and became famous throughout Hua Country.
If the matter of Lu Siyue was well-known to everyone, then the second major event that happened in Capital City was relatively subdued.
In the heart of Capital City, the once valued at three billion Sky Garden officially changed hands.
After some minor remodeling, Sky Garden was renamed Longevity Club (Capital City) Branch Number Three.
This news circulated only among the top tycoons of Capital City, but the impact it created was even more shocking.
Ever since the emergence of the first Longevity Pill, the Longevity Club had been expanding at a terrifying rate.
Previously, under the suppression combined efforts of the eight major families, many top tycoons were hesitant despite their interest because of the influence of these families.
Now, following the miraculous effects of the first Longevity Pill, all rich individuals were no longer able to contain their inner desires.
After all, the Situ elder, who had been sentenced to death, was now lying peacefully in the Longevity Club鈥檚 nursing room in the metropolis.
Although his condition had not improved, his life was still being preserved.
Perhaps some would say this type of existence, lying in bed all day with all sorts of tubes and under 24-hour care, barely conscious, was worse than death.
But those aware of the real situation thought otherwise.
The Longevity Club鈥檚 first Longevity Pill was just a prototype and had not been mass-produced, yet just a prototype had already shown such miraculous effects.
Then the more refined second Longevity Pill might be released in the not too distant future.
One year was spent from the research to the launch of the first Longevity Pill; even if the second pill takes the same amount of time, if the Situ elder can hold on, taking the second Longevity Pill might further extend his life.
This was precisely why the big star Situ Lichun refused to give up on her grandfather and also why many tycoons were so optimistic about the Longevity Club.
Compared to their own lives, faced with the pressure from the eight major families, everyone made their choice.
When everyone chose the Longevity Club simultaneously, even the eight major families were powerless to turn the tide.
And this establishment of Branch Number Three in Capital City also signified an unshakable position for Capital City.
With Capital City tycoons able to obtain Longevity Pills right at their doorstep, they naturally rejoiced.
Compared to the first two pieces of good news, the third event was more thought-provoking.
On the day Branch Number Three of the Longevity Club was established, Wu Nianhua, the heir of the Northwestern Wu family, led a group of second and third generations to create a disturbance within the club.
It was said that fights broke out and the club was thrown into chaos, and coincidentally, Mr.
Chu from the metropolis was also there.
