Chapter 153: A Happy Ending

Huang Fengwen took a sip of his drink and asked casually,
"I heard that Chairman Qin's target this time is also the Abeno Tower in Osaka?
That's an Osaka landmark, a symbol of the Japanese people! Do you think it'll work?"
"Sigh, I wasn't that greedy to begin with," Qin Han said, taking a sip of his drink with a hint of smugness.
"What a stroke of luck! The 'Paradise Papers' leak was like a godsend!
Who would dare support those unlucky bastards at Kintetsu Group now? It's like everyone's kicking a man when he's down!"
Even more outrageous, Jiangjin Group specifically dispatched a company called "Osaka Changqing," seemingly a Japanese entity, as a front to aggressively acquire assets.
Most ordinary Japanese people had no idea that a Chinese company was actually pulling the strings behind the scenes.
This is the same trick we Chinese used to follow, unaware that some "national brands" were actually backed by foreign capital.
It's a classic case of karma coming full circle!
Furthermore, with the Japanese government now abandoning its control over the Kintetsu Group, it's practically a done deal that the Abeno Harukas Tower, Japan's tallest building, will fall into the hands of the Jiang Jin Group.
"The procedures are a bit complicated, but it's just a matter of time," Qin Han said with a flourish.
"Oh, by the way, if you two ever travel to Osaka, just let me know!
I plan to open our 'Jiang Jin Hotel' directly in that tower.
Then, you two will definitely receive VIP treatment!
Stay as you please, play as you please! Hahaha!"
Goodness, this plan is brilliant; even Su Hao wanted to applaud.
The current situation is truly a win-win for everyone.
Jiangjin Group has swallowed the unexpectedly lucrative "Kintetsu Group" whole, brimming with joy and overflowing with wealth!
Fanghuan Investment, on the other hand, is also enjoying a leisurely ride. They didn't need to go through the arduous process of asset divestiture; they easily acquired 30 billion yuan, equally delighted!
"Come on, let's toast to our win-win cooperation!"
"Clink!"
The clinking of glasses was a crisp, pleasant sound, perfectly reflecting the mood of both sides.
After several rounds of drinks and dishes, the atmosphere in the private room was relaxed and lively. As the wine flowed and conversation became more casual, the topics became increasingly relaxed.
After all, the bonds had been successfully settled, and the money had arrived. The tension between the two companies had long since dissipated with the aroma of alcohol.
Now it was a harmonious time of mutual flattery and mutual approval.
"Ah, excuse me, I'll go take this call." Huang Fengwen's phone suddenly rang, and he stood up apologetically.
"Please, Mr. Huang, make yourself at home," Qin Han waved his hand.
With Huang Fengwen gone, only Su Hao and Qin Han remained in the private room.
For a moment, the air was subtly quiet.
But this silence didn't last long. Qin Han broke the ice, his gaze becoming deep.
"Brother Su, I have a question for you: what exactly is your goal?"
"Hmm?" Su Hao was slightly taken aback.
"A full 50 billion! Even top fund managers with entire teams can't achieve that much."
"But you, kid, you're making a killing all by yourself, and judging by your attitude, you have no intention of stopping."
"To be honest, most people, with that kind of windfall, would have already retired, taken their dividends, and traveled the world, living a carefree life."
"Why are you still stuck here, toiling away at your job?"
In fact, Su Hao had asked himself this question more than once.
If one day he were to retire from this battlefield, where would he go?
What could he do with that astronomical sum of commission?
But after thinking it over, besides buying a building for his guild, constructing a super cool and impressive landmark, it seemed...
he really didn't have anything he particularly wanted to do.
Moreover, he had long since come to terms with one fact—"
From the moment he stepped into the cutthroat world of "investment," experiencing that adrenaline rush and dopamine surge, there was no going back.
The thrill of strategic planning and decisive victory, the suspense of choosing between heaven and hell, was more addictive than any poison!
His ordinary, peaceful past was now a thing of the past.
Su Hao pondered for a moment, then suddenly spoke: "Chairman Qin, do you know 'BlackRock'?"
"BlackRock? Of course!" Qin Han raised an eyebrow.
"A Wall Street behemoth, the world's largest fund company!
The funds they manage, I remember, are... ten trillion US dollars? Or more?"
Five hundred billion—that's already an unimaginable figure.
Let alone ten trillion US dollars!
This is a currency unit straight out of a fantasy novel, it's too unreal!
Su Hao grinned, but his eyes flashed with a wildfire that made Qin Han shudder:
"My goal... is to build a financial behemoth even more powerful than them.
Five hundred billion? Heh, that's just the first step in a long journey, a long way off!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Han was first stunned, then chuckled, a laugh tinged with disbelief and a strange admiration:
"Good lad! That's quite a goal! So ambitious, it's almost delusional!"
"Yeah, as the old saying goes, you should always have dreams, what if they come true?
Setting a big goal, even if you only achieve a small part, is still quite considerable, isn't it?"
Su Hao smiled nonchalantly.
Of course, he also knew that building a behemoth surpassing "BlackRock" was as difficult as conjuring an atomic bomb with bare hands.
He was just saying it casually, painting a rosy picture for himself.
Just like back in the day when playing games, who didn't dream of becoming the top player in the server, building the number one guild?
Now, he's simply carrying that same dedication and desire from the game onto the real battlefield.
"So, Brother Su."
"Hmm?"
"Interested...to join our Jiangjin Group?"
"...!"
Su Hao's hand holding the wine glass suddenly paused, looking at Qin Han with some surprise.
"That 'wishful thinking' you just mentioned is entirely possible on our Jiangjin Group platform!"
"Jiangjin Group is more than ten times larger than your current Fanghuan Investment!
Whether it's capital strength, resources, channels, or connections, we have it all!
We can also provide you with the best trading team!
Moreover, I guarantee you'll receive the highest level of compensation and trading authority in the industry!
How about it? Think it over?"
At this moment, Qin Han's smile vanished completely, leaving not a trace of jest!
In its place was an undeniable solemnity!
