Chapter 499 - 224: Two Consecutive Rewards—Yang Chen Controls Jiacheng Investment’s Fate
But the companies they invested in, which are about to go public, generally have some illegal activities to varying degrees.
As long as these pieces of evidence are made public, all companies invested by Jiacheng Investment Company will lose their eligibility to go public, and those already public will surely be liquidated, with a more serious outcome possibly being delisting.
With this evidence, Yang Chen could ruin Jiacheng Investment Company at any time, making their investments worthless.
This made Yang Chen feel satisfied and he continued to pick up passengers.
After dropping off another passenger at their destination, customer service immediately called.
Customer Service: "Master Yang, a passenger just called to complain, saying she left her phone in your car, and then her husband called you. After you answered, you claimed to be in a hotel room with her, which led to her being beaten and hospitalized by her husband. Is this true?"
Yang Chen: "No! Does she have any evidence for saying this?"
Customer Service: "Our data department retrieved the surveillance from inside your car. We only saw that you did answer a call, but then you got out of the car. We don’t know what you said after you got out."
Yang Chen: "Oh, after I got out, I said I was still in the same place and told the female passenger to come back for her phone. After a while, didn’t she come back and thank me politely and take the orange peels she had left? You can see all this in the surveillance, can’t you? Do you think she would act like that if she really had been beaten by her husband and hospitalized?"
Customer Service: "It really doesn’t seem like she’d been beaten."
Yang Chen: "You’ll know once you watch the full video; I don’t know how else to explain her."
Customer Service: "We’ve watched the full video, and it’s true she made a bit of a fuss. We called to verify what you said after getting out of the car. Since you didn’t say anything, I know how to handle this. Sorry to bother you, goodbye."
Yang Chen: "Okay. Can I make a suggestion? In the future, if we encounter any more unreasonable passengers like this, just blacklist their ID cards so they can never use Bibi again. We are a big platform now; we don’t need these kinds of troublesome passengers."
Customer Service: "Okay, Master Yang, I will report your suggestion. Do you need help with anything else?"
Yang Chen: "No, that’s it. You can hang up."
Customer Service: "Alright, Master Yang. Wish you peace and everything goes well."
Just after putting away his phone, the system sent out another alert.
"Congratulations master for receiving a complaint, triggering a critical hit reward. The system rewards the master with 100% equity of Minghai Art Gallery. Acquisition documents and other materials will be sent to the master’s home by express delivery before 8 a.m. tomorrow morning. Please be sure to check."
What on earth is the Minghai Art Gallery?
Yang Chen quickly went online to check.
Minghai Art Gallery is a private collection museum, and the previous owner was Guo Minghai, the founder of Minghai Technology Group.
The artwork collection includes a wide range of items, such as calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, literature, weapons, gold and silver products, jade, and dragon robes.
Guo Minghai had many romantic partners throughout his life but never married and had no children. He spent most of his money on buying artwork, besides spending some on his romantic partners.
The collection in Minghai Art Gallery was his life’s love.
Recently, news exposed that Guo Minghai has been suffering from severe Alzheimer’s disease, commonly known as senile dementia.
Now he’s a bit confused, and before he became completely confused, he donated Minghai Technology to the Hai City Government, and sold the art gallery to a fortunate buyer, with the system representing Yang Chen as that buyer.
According to Guo Minghai’s will, the money from the sale of Minghai Art Gallery is to be used to keep him alive, and after his death, the remaining money is to be donated to the Hai City Government.
Because it is a private art gallery, outsiders have no idea what treasures are actually inside.
However, from Guo Minghai’s auction records, the art management doesn’t lack world-renowned treasures such as Wang Xizhi’s "Preface to the Poems Collected from the Orchid Pavilion".
If what is said online is true, then this art gallery is not just an art collection but contains many precious cultural relics.
Now that Yang Chen became the master of the art gallery, his responsibility is significant.
When Guo Minghai sold the art gallery, he announced to the public his hope that the next owner could protect these cultural artifacts and continue his dream to strive to collect more Dragon Country’s ancient artifacts into the museum. Especially, he hoped that as many national treasures lost overseas as possible could be retrieved, so future generations in Dragon Country can see the heritage left by their ancestors without having to go to foreigners to see it, as that is a disgrace to all of Dragon Country.
Yang Chen put away his phone and took a long breath.
Originally thinking the system rewarded him with many treasures, he didn’t expect that what it rewarded him with was more of a responsibility.
Once the evidence documents arrive tomorrow, he will go take a look. For now, he’ll continue picking up passengers.
At four in the afternoon, Yu Shishi called Yang Chen.
Yu Shishi: "Sir, accompany me to a gathering tonight. An MIT alumnus has organized a gathering, and I’m going to scout for any suitable talents that I can recruit for you."
Yang Chen: "Sure! What’s my role there then? Your boss or your boyfriend?"
Yu Shishi: "If possible, it would be best if you were my boyfriend. Directly saying you’re my boss makes some things difficult. For instance, if I’m able to recruit someone, that’s great; if not, there’s no loss. But if everyone knows you’re the boss and I haven’t managed to recruit anyone, it might put you in an awkward position."
