Chapter 450 Could it be that there is someone above her?
Upon hearing this, Shen Ci put down the phone and reminded his brother: “No matter what, if you encounter something like this in school again in the future, remember to make sure you are not hurt first, especially when the other party is outnumbered.”
Young people nowadays are very ruthless when fighting, and what she is most worried about is that her brother will suffer.
"I know this, sister. A good man never suffers a loss in front of him."
Chen Ci nodded: "But if you are bullied, you must tell me. If I find out that you are hiding it from me, I will punish you too!"
Shen Xing couldn't help but curl her lips after hearing this: "Now Senior Shi Ye is your spy, what can I hide?"
"I'm glad you know!"
At this time, the phone in Chen Ci's hand rang. She casually glanced at the caller ID and was startled. She quickly made a silence gesture to her brother. Shen Xing nodded when she saw this.
Shen Ci quickly answered the call, and his attitude became respectful: "Uncle Jiang."
"Ah Ci." Jiang Yuanliang's voice on the other end of the phone was warm and gentle: "Have you been in Longcheng recently?"
"Yes, I've been in Longcheng all the time." Chen Ci replied truthfully, then asked, "Uncle Jiang, do you have anything to talk to me about?"
Jiang Yuanliang chuckled. "It's nothing serious. Uncle Jiang just wanted to ask if you're interested in participating in the Jiangdong Charity Foundation's charity event."
What are the activities of Jiangdong Charity Foundation?
Isn’t that Uncle Jiang’s Jiangdong Group?
Shen Ci's heart moved, and she quickly understood Uncle Jiang's good intentions. For activities like those held by Jiangdong Group, those who could be invited to participate were all celebrities among celebrities.
"It's an honor that Uncle Jiang is willing to let me go. Of course I'm interested." Shen Ci said quickly.
Seeing Chen Ci's straightforward agreement, Jiang Yuanliang said directly, "Okay, your uncle will have someone send you two invitations later. Bring your mother along when the time comes. Isn't she also starting a business in Longcheng? This kind of event will be very helpful to her."
"I thank Uncle Jiang on behalf of my mother."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Xing couldn't help but come over curiously and ask, "Sister, who is this? Why does it sound like there's something about our mom?"
While searching for information about the Jiangdong Charity Foundation on her phone to learn more, Chen Ci explained to her brother, "Uncle Jiang, do you still remember?"
"Is it that great Uncle Jiang who came to our house last year and happened to meet the blind date that Grandma introduced to Mom?"
Shen Ci smiled and nodded.
Shen Xing said in surprise: "I didn't expect you two were still in touch."
"I've always had it. Every time my aunt sends something to our family from Shenzhen or Hong Kong, I send a portion to Uncle Jiang. Even though it's not something valuable, the thought is what matters most. After all, for someone of his status, nothing is valuable to him."
"Also, our mom's cleaning company has been incredibly busy lately, with sales soaring. Uncle Jiang has been a huge help, and he's always been grateful for our mom saving him. He's always been there to help us, no matter what."
Just like this event, given the size of my mother's company, there is probably no chance for her to participate in such a high-end event.
This also applies to herself. Although she has made great investments in the capital market of Longcheng Circle and has substantial personal assets, this kind of activity is not something you can enter just because you have money.
Although she would definitely be able to find a way if she wanted to go, after all, the connections she had accumulated in the Longcheng circle over the past year were enough, but Uncle Jiang's active invitation was another matter.
I guess not many people have the privilege of being invited by Jiang Yuanliang.
The search page displays relevant information about "Jiangdong Charity Foundation".
The charity event is held once a year to raise funds through auctioning items and charity performances. The Jiangdong Group Foundation then takes the lead in distributing the funds in the following year.
Last year's event raised more than 12,000 yuan in donations, but in the following year, the Jiangdong Charity Foundation invested a total of more than 50,000 yuan in charity and public welfare, which means that the remaining donations were all paid by the Jiangdong Group.
Moreover, the foundation's website can query the implementation details of all donations in previous years. This foundation was established after Jiang Yuanliang took over Jiangdong Group. Given his character, Shen Ci believed that this charity fund must do practical things.
"Charity?"
After Shen Jingjing received the invitation letter, she was surprised to see her name clearly engraved on it.
Deng Xiwen reached out and took it, looking at it carefully. "Yes, my husband also receives it every year and donates every year. This is a great thing, Jingjing. Chairman Jiang personally invited you, so you have to give him this honor."
Shen Jingjing was still a little confused: "But I have never participated in such an event."
"What's the big deal? Being able to participate in Jiangdong Group's activities and doing charity is one thing, and expanding your network is another. The reason why rich people get richer is because everyone is sticking together. This kind of occasion is an opportunity for you to integrate into the new class. Chairman Jiang obviously has this intention." Deng Xiwen explained.
Shen Ci sat aside and nodded: "Aunt Deng is right, Uncle Jiang is really doing this for our own good, Mom, don't be nervous, I will go there when the time comes, I'm here."
With her daughter around, Shen Jingjing would naturally feel more at ease, but she would still inevitably feel pressured.
"In this way, I will owe Mr. Jiang a favor again."
Deng Xiwen laughed as she listened. "You're just too thoughtful. In the business world, the last thing you fear is owing favors to others, because there are so many opportunities to repay them. Friendships only grow stronger when there's give and take."
Chen Ci also said: "Besides, it's a charity event, we will also actively donate some money when the time comes, which can be regarded as supporting Uncle Jiang's activities. It's purely a good deed."
After this enlightenment, Shen Jingjing felt much more relaxed: "Yes, it's okay to do charity, it's a good thing."
On the other hand, the people Li Wanchang sent to investigate the current situation in Yangming District quickly gave him feedback.
"What?"
He couldn't help but exclaim as he listened to the report on the phone, and stood up from the sofa.
Mrs. Li, who was standing by, saw this and reminded him worriedly, "Oh, slow down, you've just recovered from your illness."
Li Wanchang ignored her, took the phone and walked to the French window and continued to ask: "You said, Shen Ci?"
The person on the other end of the phone replied in the affirmative: "As far as I know, 90% of the new factories, large-scale entities, and plots of land traded in Yangming District in recent months have fallen into the hands of a man named Chen Ci. According to incomplete statistics, there are probably close to 50 of them!"
Fifty places!
How much cash flow is this?
Moreover, the action was so swift and decisive that Li Wanchang knew without any hesitation that Chen Ci must have gotten wind of it in advance.
Could it be that... there is someone above her?
Is there anyone with more complex and profound connections than his?
