Chapter 316 : Building a Wonder

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: Endless Fantasy Translation

It had to be said, these old financial conglomerates and capitals not only acted quickly, but their methods were also extremely skilled.

After receiving Tang Rui’s call, in less than a week, everything was arranged perfectly.

All the documents for the shares, the transfer of assets, even the congressional approval, were all taken care of.

One didn’t have to worry about anything.

During this period, there were some incidents. A chairman of a power company didn’t agree to hand over control of the electricity. He was somewhat of an extremist in white supremacy.

Now, to have to bow down to others, he couldn’t accept it.

But this wouldn’t do.

Tang Rui didn’t even need to speak. That very night, the old man had a stroke

and passed away.

After his son took over the company, he immediately signed the share transfer contract and vacated the chairman’s position.

In less than a week, Tang Rui had control over America’s oil and power.

All for the cost of 2 US dollars, he obtained shares worth approximately 3-7

trillion US dollars.

But the value of these shares is speculative; if the companies go bankrupt, the shares could become worthless in minutes.

Moreover, in this acquisition, these conglomerates didn’t suffer major losses, just minor injuries, not enough to affect their vitality.

The real losers were the small shareholders.

Tang Rui knew these things, but he didn’t care, as it was just a case of

dog-eat-dog.

Even if these conglomerates came together, he didn’t take them seriously, and

as for equal treatment?

It was just lip service.

America itself opposed racial discrimination.

But everyone knew the reality.

It’s the same in China; of course, there’d be equal treatment, but in practice, one might find it lacking, so it wasn’t something that could be helped.

It’s not that they were unfair, it’s that everyone had their own problems.

“Mr. Tang, do you have any instructions for these companies moving forward?” After Tang Rui signed the share contract, Peter respectfully inquired.

“Nothing in particular, keep things as they are for now. If I need anything, I’ll

call you.”

Tang Rui did have some ideas, but now was not the time.

Let’s wait until this period is over.

The New Year is almost here.

Why bother with more?

“Okay, Mr. Tang, this is your personal team secretary’s number. She can’t enter the company, but she will stay on standby in Jinling with her team. If you need anything, you can arrange for her to do it.”

“Personal team? What kind of people are there?” Tang Rui asked curiously.

“The entire team includes a stylist, fashion designer, travel arrangement service team, chef team, personal service team, etc., capable of meeting any of your needs in life,” Peter confidently stated.

But he wasn’t lying; to curry favor, they were serious.

This team was definitely one of the world’s top.

In terms of enjoyment, capital knows how to play; they can do anything you

can’t even imagine.

Too bad.

He almost never needed it.

“Okay, I know. I’ll call them if I need to. You can go now if there’s nothing else.”

“Then, Mr. Tang, I’ll take my leave.”

After saying this, Peter left with the share and appointment documents.

Tang Rui looked at the phone number of the personal team secretary on the table.

He originally thought about throwing it away.

But after thinking about it, he decided to let Honglian take note of the number.

Tang Rui organized the documents and prepared to go home when Lin Chao came running over.

“Mr. Tang, this is today’s meeting summary.”

“Okay, I’ll look at it when I get home.”

Tang Rui took the document bag and said casually.

He receives several such meeting summaries every day, including internal references and such.

Recently, he hadn’t had much to do.

But the higher-ups were very busy, not just one department, but all

departments.

Because the current international situation was different than before.

Previously, international issues required considering America’s thoughts and various interests.

Now, the way China thought about international issues had to change.

It was not about whose interests China might affect.

It was about who might affect China’s interests.

Originally thought that after reaching the top, China wouldn’t need to rely on America’s experience, but it turns out they still needed it.

After all, they have been powerful for decades.

Their measures and experiences were worth learning.

So, during this period, various departments held meetings every day, reported the discussed plans, and then continued discussions at higher levels.

Tang Rui also received these meeting summaries every day.

It was not about asking for his opinion, but letting him know what not to mess with, what was their own.

It didn’t matter before.

But now it was different; messing something up could result in China’s own

loss.

Back at home, Tang Rui opened the document bag and looked through the meeting summary.

He didn’t like reading these things.

Normally, he would just flip through it, glance at the titles to get the gist, and

be done.

But today’s meeting content interested him.

International cooperation.

America intended to cooperate deeply with China in the space sector, such as establishing space standards and systems.

What were space standards and systems?

It was about raising the threshold for entering space, like setting a standard that rockets with a certain amount of thrust can be launched.

After launch, how to fine for rocket debris forming space junk outside the atmosphere.

In summary, space wasn’t somewhere you went just because you wanted to. Rockets had to meet standards, satellites had to meet standards and comply with procedures, etc.

To be honest, after reading this meeting summary, Tang Rui also had to admit that America did indeed have experience in this area.

Although American space technology now ranked second, it didn’t prevent them from proposing this idea, because setting standards wouldn’t exclude them.

As for the third, that’d be hard to say.

These weren’t important; the key issue was, China seemed to be somewhat interested, but hadn’t agreed yet, saying they needed to study it.

At the end of the meeting summary, there was a form for Tang Rui to give his opinion on whether to establish these space standards and if so, which ones to use.

Tang Rui picked up a pen and directly wrote several large characters in the opinion column.Follow current novelenglish.net . s on novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.ɴet

Project Jianmu, space elevator.

Why bother with rockets?

We’ve already reached the top, why not create a spectacle to celebrate, it would be a loss to our ancestors otherwise.

Thinking back through the dynasties.

Whenever we rose to power, we would always undertake grand constructions, creating wonders.

Although it was the 21st, tradition shouldn’t be lost.

“Building skyscrapers is meaningless; if we’re going to do it, let’s do something amazing, directly build a space elevator..
