Baring Asia Headquarters.

The 500-square-foot luxury office was filled with all sorts of books, neatly arranged behind the chairman's desk. Inside the spacious office, a bespectacled man with a foreign appearance was drinking red wine from a wine glass.

“Xu Xin, I can’t possibly agree to acquire 40% of NetEase’s shares for just 8 million US dollars.”

Xu Xin smiled and said, "8 million US dollars is Shen Sheng's bottom line. Shen Sheng never haggles in business; it's always a fixed price. That's how it was when I acquired Tencent shares from him. He wouldn't raise the price."

Zhuang Jiacheng took a sip of wine.

"I can't accept this price. We've made so much money for NetEase, and this return is too low. I can't accept it."

Xu Xin glanced at Zhuang Jiacheng: "Mr. Zhuang, has someone asked about the price?"

Zhuang Jiacheng had been blaming himself for a while and wanted to sell his shares, and he couldn't be persuaded to do so. Although Shen Fang's offer was not high, Zhuang Jiacheng would definitely make a move if someone made an offer at this time, given his personality. Since he disagreed, there was only one possibility: someone had inquired about the price.

Zhuang Jiacheng gave Xu Xin an approving look.

“That’s right, Superman asked for $10 million.”

Xu Xin narrowed his eyes upon hearing this. Little Superman? Buying NetEase shares at this time? This is not his investment style. Otherwise, Little Superman would not have sold Tencent shares to MIH.

Back then, Tencent was much better than NetEase is now. Although NetEase went public, it's now facing a crisis, and Ding Lei has been ousted from the center of power. Buying at the bottom now is not a wise move.

Li Zeju has never been a shrewd investor. In the investment banking industry, he's neither a race car investor nor a track car investor; he plays the game of speculative acquisitions. Spending $10 million on such risky shares is absolutely irrational and completely out of character for him. So why did he acquire shares in the first place?

Suddenly, Xu Xin remembered what Ding Sanshi had said: a Hong Kong telecommunications company had once wanted to acquire NetEase.

So the mastermind behind this is none other than Superman!

Xu Xin's mind raced as she glanced at Zhuang Jiacheng.

"Zhuang Sheng, don't you think there's something fishy about NetEase's latest scandal?"

Zhuang Jiacheng took a sip of his drink: "It doesn't matter anymore. You've already told me about Ding Sanshi's situation. The stock price is only $0.74. Even if it can resume trading, the future is bleak. I'm planning to sell my shares. Now it's just a matter of who offers the higher price. Xiao Chaoren offered me $10 million, but I think that's a bit low. Can you help me find out Chen Fang's lowest price so I can find a buyer?"

Xu Xin nodded: "Okay, Mr. Zhuang, I understand. Then I won't bother you any longer."

Xu Xin got up and went to Zhuang Jiacheng's office. Leaving Baring Asia, Xu Xin sighed. Zhuang Jiacheng was indeed short-sighted; selling NetEase now was unwise. NetEase's future was far more promising. In Xu Xin's view, NetEase was only experiencing temporary difficulties. As an investor, she should firmly support Ding Sanshi. Zhuang Jiacheng had clearly intended to sell his NetEase shares. There was no need for her to try and dissuade him.

Shen Fang is right. He and Zhuang Jiacheng are different types of investors, and being together would limit his development.

Xu Xin took out her phone and made a call.

At this moment, Shen Fang and the others had arrived at the private room of Lan Kwai Fong Bar. Maggie Cheung, Tony Leung, Jet Li and others had already arrived.

When Daniel Wu saw his idol, Jay Chou was incredibly excited. These were all big stars, the pinnacle of actresses, the kung fu emperor Jay Chou! Shen Fang was right, he really was going to star in a Zhang Yimou film, a 30 million US dollar blockbuster!!!

Xie Biwang looked constipated; he was very unhappy that Shen Fang was actually a real tycoon.

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Sister Manyu, Brother Wei, Brother Jie, it's been a long time."

Jet Li laughed and patted Shen Fang on the shoulder.

"Long time no see, what brings you to Hong Kong?"

Man Shen put her arm around Shen Fang's shoulder very affectionately.

"Handsome, where's Sisi? Didn't she come with us?"

Shen Fang smiled and was about to speak when the phone rang. It was Xu Xin calling.

Shen Fang looked apologetic.

"I need to take this call first."

Manyu nodded: "It's okay, you answer first, we'll talk later."

Shen Fang went to the bathroom to answer the phone.

"Hey, Sister Xin, what's wrong?"

Xu Xin heard a noisy sound coming from the other end of the phone.

"Chen Fang, where are you? I have something to tell you."

"What's wrong, Sister Xin?"

"I think I know who's behind this. Let's meet and talk."

Upon hearing this, Shen Fang's pupils dilated slightly.

"I'm at Moon Bay Bar in Lan Kwai Fong. You can just come over here. I'm meeting some friends."

"Okay, I'll be right there."

The call ended.

Shen Fang looked at himself in the mirror and made a peace sign.

He flashed a bright white smile.

"Wow, so handsome."

The mastermind behind it all, tsk tsk, they've shown themselves so quickly. Looks like things have changed.

Shen Fang walked out of the restroom and returned to his seat.

Looking at Shen Kun who was singing.

"Xiao Kun, stop singing. Go wait for Sister Xin at the door."

Upon hearing this, Shen Kun put down the microphone.

"Is Sister Xin coming too?"

Shen Fang nodded.

“Something’s happened in Asia. The mastermind behind NetEase has shown up. You wait outside.”

Shen Kun gave an OK sign.
