In the morning, when Emma got up, she was wearing an apron and preparing breakfast. Bai Yujing came down the stairs and saw Li Hao lying on the sofa with a dead pig expression. Bai Yujing couldn't help but laugh, "Did this guy really sleep here last night?"
Emma shrugged her shoulders, also wearing a funny expression. Bai Yujing walked down from upstairs and said, "Emma, no need to cook; we're going out to eat today!"
Emma looked around at the messy house, with wine glasses, bottles, and plates piled up from the party last night. The backyard was the same, and the balcony on the third floor and the entertainment room on the second floor were also in disarray. "Aren't we going to clean this up?"
Bai Yujing replied, "An hourly worker will come over to clean it up later; it's fine!"
Bai Yujing pinched Li Hao's nose, and before long, he suddenly sprang up. "What's going on?"
Upon realizing it was Bai Yujing, he immediately complained, "Are you annoying? I want to sleep a bit more!"
Bai Yujing quickly said, "We're going out for breakfast together; are you coming or not?"
Li Hao waved his hand but seemed to suddenly remember something and sat up from the sofa. "Forget it; I'll go with you. I drank too much last night, and my head hurts a bit. I need something light for breakfast. Do you have any recommendations?"
"There's a pretty good buffet breakfast restaurant up ahead!" Bai Yujing thought for a moment before replying.
Li Hao nodded. "Okay, book a private room or find a quieter spot; I need to discuss something with you."
Bai Yujing immediately realized, "Wait, you're not here just to celebrate my birthday, are you? You're here on a mission!"
Li Hao quickly defended himself, "What do you mean by a mission? I'm just here to talk about something important with you!"
After sitting down, Li Hao took a couple of sips of porridge and felt much better about his headache before saying to Bai Yujing, "I really do have something important to discuss with you; I've come all this way for your help!"
Bai Yujing pointed at Li Hao and said, "What did I tell you? You have no good intentions. Come on, what’s going on?"
Li Hao leaned back in his chair and replied, "Old Bai, you know that our family has been on a downward trend lately. My father has gradually shifted from real estate development to the hotel and tourism industries. This area is progressing well, and the future looks promising. However, because of you, the situation and changes in the world are happening too quickly for my father to understand!"
Bai Yujing was displeased: "What do you mean because of me? I haven’t done anything!"
Li Hao laughed heartily: "In any case, our family will gradually abandon the real estate industry and focus on developing hotels and tourism. Additionally, we want to try our hand at other industries!"
Bai Yujing nodded: "That's a good idea, but you’ve come to the wrong person if you think I can help you with anything."
Li Hao said, "Don’t underestimate yourself, Old Bai. You’re a person of great influence. This time you can really help us. We’re preparing to take over a car company and bid for the plan to support Chinese-owned automotive brands. My father and I both believe this is an absolute opportunity, but we need your connections to help us navigate some channels. Of course, you can also invest!"
Bai Yujing was surprised: "What can I do to help? With your family's connections, how can I know anyone?"
Li Hao immediately responded: "We’ve received news that the person in charge of the bidding and providing relevant technical support is from Base 2036. The person’s name is Wu Jinhao. My father has asked around, and someone hinted that if we reach out to you, we’ll definitely be able to get through this channel!"
"Old Wu's son?" Bai Yujing suddenly recalled; he seemed to have seen this person at the base. He was a strong man in his thirties or forties who spoke with authority and charisma—completely different from the thin Old Wu. When he realized this was Old Wu's son, Bai Yujing was quite taken aback!
Bai Yujing nodded: "I can talk to him, but it’s not just about connections; what company are you planning to bid with?"
Li Hao immediately replied: "Qoros Auto Co., Ltd.!"
Bai Yujing nodded: "A subsidiary of Chery? That seems quite legitimate! But this isn’t something that can be secured with just a little money. I only have over 200 million on hand, which is mostly from recent copyright purchases and some company profits. Investing that wouldn’t even make a splash!"
Li Hao explained, "There's something you don't quite understand. Qoros Automotive Co., Ltd. is a private joint venture founded by Chery and an Israeli company. It has been losing money for three consecutive years, with accumulated net losses reaching 6.6 billion yuan. In this situation, bringing in external capital to stop the losses has become the only option for Qoros Automotive Co., Ltd. We are prepared to invest seven billion to acquire a 60% stake in Qoros Automotive Co., Ltd. If you are willing to join, I can guarantee you 5% of the shares for 200 million!"
Hearing Li Hao's words, Bai Yujing felt somewhat tempted. He was very optimistic about this matter as well. Bai Yujing nodded and said, "Okay, I can contact Old Wu and discuss this matter with him. Although he owes me a favor, I’m not sure how reliable he is; I can only have a conversation!"
Li Hao immediately responded excitedly, "Absolutely no problem! Your contribution to the incident with the Chinese Antarctic Research Team was significant. However, because you are not part of the system, you won't enjoy the benefits in this regard. Your suggestions will be valued at this time, especially since Old Wu still owes you a favor. As long as you are willing to speak up, nothing is impossible!"
After discussing some details with Li Hao, he hurriedly took a flight away from Deep Market. This guy has been getting busier lately, while Bai Yujing sat in his seat contemplating some matters.
Emma nudged Bai Yujing and said, "Ian, you haven't forgotten something important, have you?"
Bai Yujing turned around and replied, "You mean about the entrance to Sky Island opening in late July? I've already contacted Burton MacLeod. I'll set off for Yangmayen Island on the 9th; the McLeod Group has made ample preparations there. Emma, you should stay here for a few days; we’ll set off together then."
Emma nodded but added, "But you've forgotten another person!"
Bai Yujing was taken aback: "Who else is going with us? Oh right, Alice and Kaka! I originally planned for you to go to Skye Island to pick them up; I didn't expect you to come directly here. This complicates things!"
Emma shook her head: "Don't you remember my scheduled pilot, Will Hackman?"
"My goodness, is he really coming with us?" Bai Yujing was stunned. He had only casually agreed at first and thought that after so long, the old man would have forgotten about it. But hearing Emma say this made him realize that he had been thinking about it all along!
Emma nodded: "When I came here, Mr. Hackman repeatedly reminded me to make sure we take him along. You don’t know; he has been preparing a lot lately and has been practicing his driving skills and working out. You can't let him down! Alice and Kaka are staying at the old man's house; he will bring them over!"
