Celebrity
To be honest, there was a time in his previous life when Jiang Xu had the utmost admiration for him.
He was just too incredible.
Whether it was single-handedly creating an e-commerce empire, or the emergence of the payments system, both had epoch-making significance.
Only later did he get a bit carried away.
Publicly confronted who knows how many times with some important departments,
leading to his subsequent suppression.
Many people might think the suppression was because he wanted to list his financial group on the stock market.
In reality, that wasn’t the main reason.
One of the real reasons was the university he established.
If this had been in ancient times, he would definitely have not lived to see the next day’s sun.
All sorts of thoughts flashed through Jiang Xu’s mind.
Jack Ma had already walked up to him.
“Mr. Jiang, I’ve heard so much about you, truly young and promising, with an extraordinary spirit,”
The current Jack Ma was still full of vigor, looking down upon his peers with pride.
However, in facing Jiang Xu, he was quite friendly and gave due respect.
“I’m very pleased to meet President Ma, I’ve been an admirer of yours for a long time,” Jiang Xu said, half sincerely, half insincerely.
This individual had once seemed unattainably high in Jiang Xu’s eyes.
But now, they could sit as equals.
Even more so, it wouldn’t be long before Jiang Xu would surpass this man in every aspect, from assets to social status.
Jack Ma observed Jiang Xu without a sound.
He had turned every piece of information about this young man inside out.
And each time, he couldn’t help but marvel.
The young man’s rise to wealth was even more fantastical and legendary than his own.
Although he also started from the very bottom, he did rely on some capital and connections from his father.
But Jiang Xu was different.
This young man relied entirely on himself from the very beginning.
And he was so young.
As long as he didn’t get ahead of himself, his future prospects were boundless.
Jack Ma had repeatedly said to those around him that it was a pity he didn’t have a daughter; otherwise, he would have done everything possible to match-make and turn Jiang Xu into his son-in-law.
Alongside, An Nuonuo also bent slightly and said, “Hello, President Ma, I’m An Nuonuo, very pleased to meet you.”
Jack Ma’s eyes lit up as he looked at An Nuonuo and sincerely exclaimed, “Miss
An is even more beautiful than in the photos.
An Nuonuo: “Thankyou for the compliment, President Ma.”
She was somewhat nervous facing such a tycoon.
At this moment, Jack Ma’s wife, another President Ma, Boss Zhou, Boss Xu, and others walked over with their respective wives.
One by one, they all showed Jiang Xu a most amiable smile.
Everyone exchanged business cards.
The women gathered together to chat.
Jiang Xu sat at the same table with these magnates.
A thought struck Jiang Xu, and he suddenly said, “I wonder if I could take a few small videos and photos and then upload them to social media later?
So many magnates, each a topic in themselves, each with their own pull, just perfect to use on Daily Headlines.
To bring more attention and users to the app.
This was no big issue, and naturally, the magnates wouldn’t refuse.
Jiang Xu immediately opened his phone’s camera.
“Hello everyone, I’m Jiang Xu, and today I’m very honored to meet many respected elders, this person is…”
The big shots were all very cooperative in front of the camera, greeting with smiles on their faces.
Jiang Xu could imagine the sensation it would cause when these videos were released tomorrow.
After all, it wasn’t easy to gather so many business tycoons in one place at once.
Boss Xu laughed and said, “With wine and dishes, how could we go without dancers?”
He clapped his hands, and soon, twenty svelte and graceful young ladies, around twenty years old, dressed in ancient costumes, filed elegantly into the room.
With that, melodious music began to play.
Then these ladies in ancient attire started to dance gracefully.
Each one had a slender waist and was so flexible they seemed boneless, performing all sorts of difficult moves with ease.
Just from the standpoint of men, each of these ladies was top-notch.
It turned out that Boss Xu had already put together a team at this time.
The other big shots were also watching intently, their expressions something all men could understand.
Jiang Xu put his phone away.
This scene could not be captured.
Boss Xu leaned in and said to Jiang Xu, “Mr. Jiang, if you take a fancy to any of them, I’ll make the arrangements foryou.”
“Thanks, Boss Xu,” Jiang Xu smiled and said, “but my fiancee and I are very much in love, and I don’t plan to do anything to betray her. I appreciate your kindness though.”
Boss Xu glanced at the group of women not far away and whispered, I understand. You can come to my private club sometime.”
Jiang Xu couldn’t help but laugh and cry, “I’m not just being polite, I really have no such intentions.”
Boss Xu saw the serious look on Jiang Xu’s face and was immediately astounded.
In this world, could there actually be men who don’t cheat?
Boss Zhou laughed from the side, “Old Xu, you really have no perception.
Mr. Jiang’s fiancee is stronger than all of your team members combined.
How could she catch his eye, and I guess Mr. Jiang spends all his energy on his own fiancee, how could he have any spare to mess around outside.” Everyone laughed heartily upon hearing this.
“Hey, I didn’t consider that,” Boss Xu said, smacking his head, “I’ll punish myselfwithadrink.”
The atmosphere on the scene was very pleasant, with everyone happily chatting with each other.
And the interaction between Jack Ma and Shencheng Ma was not like the rivalry the outside world saw.
Sometimes what you see is only what they want you to see. The only disappointment was that Old Liu hadn t come. That was the face-blind Old Liu.
Old Liu’s e-commerce business was still losing money and didn’t qualify to join such a high-level gathering.
But given the relationship between Old Liu and Jack Ma, even if invited, he might not have come.
After a while, the ladies went out to stroll together.
After they had left, Jack Ma, the initiator of this gathering, finally spoke up, “This time, I’ve invited everyone here because there’s something I want to discuss with you all.”
The crowd showed they were all ears.
Jack Ma took a sip of his tea and said, “I want to form an alliance, inviting everyone to join.
We’ll share information and resources, make money together, and grow stronger.”
Jiang Xu’s eyes flashed.
Had Jack Ma done this in his previous life?
Perhaps he did but it wasn’t exposed, or maybe he tried but didn’t succeed. Or maybe, because of Jiang Xu, the plot had changed, leading to the creation of today’s gathering.
As Jack Ma finished speaking, everyone fell silent, not immediately declaring their stance.
They were weighing the pros and cons, as this was not a decision to be made hastily.
Jack Ma looked at Jiang Xu, “Mr. Jiang, what do you think?
