Chapter 621: 524, A Woman Who Knows How to Use Her Strengths (Seeking Monthly Votes) Chapter 621: 524, A Woman Who Knows How to Use Her Strengths (Seeking Monthly Votes) “Mr.
Yang, your alcohol tolerance is really impressive, you drank so much and still look so energized.”
After catching up with Yang Hao, Xu Hongmei started the conversation with a cheerful smile.
“Actually, I didn’t drink that much.”
Yang Hao replied casually.
With the assistance of the System, he possessed a powerful alcohol metabolism, which essentially made him immune to getting drunk.
Therefore, even though he was the main target for toasts, he remained clear-headed throughout.
“It can only be said that Mr.
Yang has an oceanic capacity.”
Xu Hongmei praised him with a twinkle in her eye, giving a thumbs up, then she touched her forehead and said, “However, I can’t handle it, feeling a bit dizzy.”
While speaking, she subconsciously leaned closer towards Yang Hao and, taking the opportunity, looped her arm through his, pressing her ample bosom up against him.
Xu Hongmei was the typical “middle-aged beauty.” Now in her early forties and well-maintained to look only in her thirties, her biggest advantage over a reasonably attractive face was her D+ bust.
She knew how to use her assets well.
Although she knew that a super-rich man like Yang Hao would not fall for an older woman like her, she also knew he probably wouldn’t reject her subtle advances.
After all, what man wouldn’t like her few extra pounds of flesh?
Even Mr.
Zheng, the factory owner, had lingered a second longer on her chest during dinner.
As she expected, Yang Hao did not make any obvious moves to resist, but simply responded indifferently, “In that case, Miss Xu should avoid drinking later.”
“Meeting so many new friends, I’m happy.
It doesn’t matter if I’m drunk,” she said, rubbing against him a bit more forcefully.
In fact, she quite enjoyed the feeling of contact with Yang Hao’s strong and powerful arms, especially when she thought about what happened in the restroom earlier, which made her somewhat eager to try again.
Unfortunately, Mr.
Yang was not interested in her!
This was something Xu Hongmei was quite aware of.
Yang Hao had seen too many women throwing themselves at him and was long used to it.
Xu Hongmei’s appeal was not even close to those other women, moreover, he was currently in his “sagely moments,” where such low-level advances were completely ignorable.
However, Yang Hao had a good impression of Xu Hongmei.
She dropped her work in Hucheng and rushed over just because he was attending the celebration, which showed she was a person of determination.
Over the two days of acquaintance, she also demonstrated impressive social skills.
“Mr.
Yang, as you know, I run a photo studio,” she began.
“It’s just that the studio is currently small.
Actually, I’ve always had the dream of building the largest photography company in the country.”
“I wonder if Mr.
Yang is interested in this field?” Xu Hongmei asked, getting straight to the point after initiating the conversation.
“Building the largest photography company in the country.”
“That’s no small dream,” Yang Hao murmured.
“I don’t know if Yanyan has mentioned it to you, but the photo studio I’m currently managing was actually started with my ex-husband.
I supported him through his poorest days, but when things got better, he ended up with one of the makeup artists at the studio.
We got divorced, and that vixen and he opened a studio down the same street.
My initial goal was just to beat them, to take all their business away…” she said.
“But then I felt that’s too boring of a goal.
What’s the point of beating them when I could beat all the competitors in the country!
That would be something!”
Xu Hongmei first shared her “sorrowful experience,” knowing that as the one who was cheated on, and with her ex-husband and his mistress opening another photo studio on the same street, she, as the “victim,” would more easily garner sympathy.
Such a story could also potentially stir protective instincts in a strong figure like Yang Hao.
From her approach, it was clear that Xu Hongmei was not just a “busty but brainless” middle-aged woman; on the contrary, she not only knew how to use her D+ assets but also had a shrewd mind.
After listening to Xu Hongmei’s story, Yang Hao did not immediately express his position but decided to use his “Fiery Eyes” skill to inspect the situation first.
As a result, the System gave a high “Double A” evaluation.
Loyalty: A-level, Ability: A-level!
Based on the evaluation from the System, her claim about her ex-husband’s infidelity should be true.
According to past experience, the words of someone with an A-level of loyalty are very credible, as such a person wouldn’t betray unless faced with overwhelming temptation.
And an A-level of ability is already the standard for a manager at a large company.
But Xu Hongmei is a bit older, already 41 this year, so it’s likely that her abilities have plateaued at A-level.
“So, you’re looking to raise investment?”
Just as they were about to reach the door of the banquet hall, Yang Hao finally spoke.
“Yes, I myself don’t have the financial support to fulfill this dream.”
Xu Hongmei nodded in response.
“Here’s what you’ll do, go back and prepare a project proposal, and write down the details of the cooperation clearly.
I’ll look at it and get back to you after that.”
Yang Hao replied straightforwardly.
“Alright!”
“I’ll get on it as soon as I get back tonight!”
Xu Hongmei was overjoyed.
In fact, she had only approached this with a try-and-see attitude, not expecting Mr.
Yang to actually offer a chance.
Even if this collaboration didn’t materialize, the interaction would bring them closer, and for Xu Hongmei, that was a success in itself.
Having been in business for so many years, Xu Hongmei knew all too well the importance of social networking and making the right choices.
As long as you choose the right leg to cling to, even one hair from that leg can lift you to great heights!
During this conversation, they had already arrived at the entrance of the banquet hall.
Xu Hongmei consciously let go of Yang Hao’s arm and maintained a proper social distance from him.
Inside the banquet hall was Yang Hao’s official girlfriend, and Xu Hongmei didn’t want to cause any unnecessary misunderstandings.
“Yang, you’re finally back.”
“Are you feeling unwell from drinking too much?
I just had the waiter brew some tea for you, have a drink.”
When Yang Hao returned to the main table, Kang Zhichao immediately came over with a smile, holding a teapot in his hand.
Between Yang Hao and Zheng Dongshan, he had always sided with his own leader, but Zheng Dongshan’s courteous behavior towards Yang Hao had now made him wary and even a bit regretful of his choice.
Especially after Yang Hao’s identity as a major shareholder of the Hucheng Cultural Broadcasting Film and Television Group was revealed, when Kang Huimin had immediately checked the internet for information about the Hucheng Cultural Broadcasting Film and Television Group while he was in the restrooms.
He then discovered that it was a colossal company with a market value of about 150 billion.
And Yang Hao was a major shareholder.
Although it was unknown how much stock he held, from Zheng Dongshan’s attitude, it was highly probable that Yang Hao had absolute control of the group, which meant owning more than 50% of the shares!
By that calculation, Yang Hao’s total net worth might well be in the hundreds of billions, even exceeding that amount!
Upon learning this, everyone from the Kang family was thoroughly shocked.
Previously, they had believed Yang Hao was simply a multi-billionaire; they had no idea that those billions were just a fraction of his true net worth!
As an employee of the Xiangyang Steel Plant, Kang Zhichao of course knew that the entire plant was worth just over ten billion, meaning Yang Hao’s fortune was equivalent to ten Xiangyang Steel Plants.
After realizing all this, Kang Zhichao certainly regretted his earlier choice, just as his wife Wang Huixin had said, his job at the Xiangyang Steel Plant was barely enough to keep him from starving, but if he could cozy up to this nephew-in-law, that was an opportunity to feast.
What do you think?
