Chapter 502 Little Ma's Online Romance

Liu Qianqian yawned, hugged her beloved cat Dongdong, and looked at Brother Ma.

"Brother Tony, what are we having for lunch today?"

Goodness, he's a true foodie. The first thing he asked was today's main topic: what to eat.

Little Ma smiled and said, "Today is Tencent's annual party, so naturally there's plenty of good food and drink, whatever you want."

"Little brother, you'll have to go up on stage and say a few words, or show off your talent or something."

Shen Fang smiled and said, "No problem. By the way, are TVXQ and H.O.T. here yet?"

"They're here, they've arrived. Old Chen is entertaining them. You wouldn't believe it, Old Chen's been incredibly flamboyant lately. He even dyed his hair like everyone else, it's a full head of blond hair, and he's dating a Korean actress. Her name is Choo Ja-hyun."

Shen Fang was completely dumbfounded: "Who??? Choo Ja-hyun???"

Little Ma nodded: "Yes, you know her? She's really beautiful."

Shen Fang.....Aili, Pinru, Hong Shixian... Damn... Now all that's missing is Hong Shixian's "Temptation to Go Home" to complete the lineup. Li Caihua has already been signed, and Chen Yidan is amazing for actually managing to snag Pinru.

"I don't know him, but his name is weird. That old Chen is so flirtatious now, he's even chasing after female celebrities. Be careful, don't get scammed."

Little Ma smiled and said, "Probably not. She seems like a very virtuous wife and loving mother. Old Chen and Choo Ja-hyun met by chance, I think at an event at your SM Entertainment. According to Old Chen, it was love at first sight."

"Okay, I'll go see him in a bit. Has Fatty Ding arrived yet?"

Little Ma shook his head: "He went home early. Old Ding's dad is a local big shot and is very particular about celebrating the New Year. He's really in the limelight today. NetEase's stock price has jumped to $52. Fatty is rich this time. He was bragging a couple of days ago that he was planning to buy a private jet."

Shen Fang laughed: "Go ahead and buy it, why don't you get one too?"

Little Ma shook his head: "It's too flashy, there's no need for that. I'm not in the mood for it right now. I'll enjoy it after our projects are fully developed and launched."

"Brother Ma, how's your love life? You've got a girlfriend in China now, it's not right for you to stay single all the time. Should I ask Little Fatty and the others to introduce you to a pretty girl?" Shen Fang teased.

"Brother Chen, Xiao Ma is really slick. He recently started chatting with a female netizen on QQ, and they're really getting along famously. That bastard is also incredibly cunning; he's checking her IP address, sending her gifts, playing mysterious, and acting all high and mighty. He even used his access to hack into her QQ space album," Zeng Liqing revealed directly.

Upon hearing this, Little Ma's face turned as red as a monkey's bottom.

"Wow, this is so trendy, online dating, huh? Awesome! Do you have any photos? Let me see which lucky girl has won over our Little Ma."

Little Ma glared at Zeng Liqing: "Didn't you promise me you wouldn't tell anyone?"

Zeng Liqing chuckled and said, "If I didn't say that, why would you show me a picture of your online boyfriend?"

Rumor has it that Ma's wife was someone he met online. Who would have thought that in this life, Ma would still find a partner this way? Wow, impressive. With Ma's current status, he could have any type of woman he wanted.

Shen Fang put his arm around Xiao Ma's neck: "Brother Ma, take it out and show it off, let us guys see our future sister-in-law."

Little Ma said somewhat shyly, "She doesn't know who I am yet. She only knows I'm a tycoon."

"Oh, and I have another scoop: Pony Ma (Ma Huateng, founder of Tencent) directly recharged 500,000 QQ coins for her girlfriend!!!"

Shen Fang... Damn... using QQ coins to pick up girls... Unbelievable...

The group arrived at the Shangri-La Hotel, where the Penguin annual meeting was being held, chatting and laughing. The entire hotel had been booked by Penguin for the day. They had a quick lunch.

At the dinner table, Chen Fang noticed Chen Yidan with her non-mainstream look, and Lin Pinru...

Little Ma raised his glass: "Our strategist is here today! This year is a year of great success for us penguins, a year of our penguins becoming dragons! Brothers and sisters, let's eat well, drink well, and have fun! Cheers!!!"

Everyone raised their glasses.

Little Ma looked at Chen Fang: "Brother, say a few words."

Shen Fang smiled and said, "Then let me say a few words. Penguin brothers, let's work together to spread the penguin footprint all over the world. Our ultimate goal is to make Penguin the world's number one internet company. Now that the cold wave has passed, the climax awaits us. We, the penguins, will be the trendsetters in this climax. Where there's a will, there's a way; with a do-or-die spirit, even the mighty Qin Pass will eventually fall to Chu; those who persevere will be rewarded by Heaven; with patience and determination, even the mighty Yue army can conquer Wu."

"Penguins are awesome!!!!!!!!!"

Little Ma, Chen Yidan, Zeng Liqing, Zhang Zhidong, Xu Chenye, and Zhang Xiaolong laughed loudly: "Penguin is awesome!!!!!!!!!"

The dinner table was filled with lively toasts and laughter; it was a truly enjoyable and relaxed meal. Everyone's face was beaming with smiles. Penguin is awesome!!!

"Old Lu, you've worked hard this year. Here's a 10 million yuan bonus. Take your wife out for a good trip after the New Year."

Wang Hui smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, you're too kind. Thank you."

Shen Fang waved his hand: "Beng, you're too kind. Lao Lu was in charge of Feilong the whole time. He deserved it."

Wang Hui raised an eyebrow at Lu Jinbo: "You know what to do once you get the money."

Lu Jinbo... My 36D! He glared at Chen Fang, "Could you give me a bonus behind my wife's back?! With 10 million, I could hire 20 36Ds in one night, make the most of the opportunity! Ah! My club dream is shattered!!"
