Wu Chen was truly annoyed. The other party was too inconsiderate.
"Hmm?" The person on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment. Then, he immediately understood who this unknown number was. His tone was a little flustered." Erm…Mr. Wu, you might have misunderstood…I'm not…"
"It's very late. I want to rest. If there's anything, just call me. Don't send anyone to follow me!”Wu Chen did not wait for the other party to say anything and directly hung up.
He held his phone and looked out the window at the alley again, then drew the curtains.
In fact, Wu Chen was very clear that the other party would not pose any harm to him.
Because now, the person who sent people to follow and monitor him could be said to be one of his own.
It was the champion!
Wu Chen had driven his white Lamborghini away yesterday. He had seen Li Ruotai this morning and returned the car keys to him. From Scholar Wang's perspective, he didn't even know Wu Chen. He could only say that he had seen him before.
However, he still sent people to follow and monitor Wu Chen.
Wu Chen could guess why.
Because he was Li Ruobing's man, the brother-in-law of the 'Young Master Li' of Donghai, Li Ruotai! Moreover, Li Ruobing was already pregnant with her own child.
Currently, there were a total of four " big shots " in the Donghai Road. Other than Guaizi Zhao and Champion Wang, there was also Yan Jiu from the North City and Yuan Erbao from the Development Zone.
These four people controlled more than 90% of the entertainment and leisure businesses in Donghai. They were also involved in quarries, logistics, and other businesses.
It was only in the 1990s that East Ocean became the dominant force in the market. There was a role that could be called the "Godfather of East Ocean" because it was more chaotic at that time.
After the New Era.
The older generation either died or went to prison. Those who survived all washed their names clean and went ashore. Although the older generation washed their names clean and changed their positions, there would soon be new forces to replace them. However, because the times were different, the environment was different, and the legal environment had become better.
It was already very difficult for the East China Sea to produce a godfather who could do whatever he wanted and had absolute dominance.
The more developed a place was, the harder it was for such a person to appear!
Eastern Sea City had developed. Although it couldn't compare to the top first-tier cities in the country, it was still a first-tier city with a population of more than ten million.
However…
As long as it was a business like a bar, KTV, or a spa, it was inevitable that it would involve relationships, connections, and those things in the underworld.
Hence, there were four of them: Guaizi Zhao, Champion Wang, Yan Jiu, and Erbao Yuan.
Among them, Yan Jiu was the oldest and most experienced. People in the underworld called him Ninth Master Yan. He was already in his fifties this year.
Kidnapper Zhao followed Yuan Erbao. Both of them were under fifty.
As for the champion, he was only thirty-three years old this year!
If one were to look closely at the changes in the Eastern Sea Route in the past twenty years, one would discover a shocking fact. The Scholar Wang was extremely terrifying! The speed at which he rose up was astounding!
He was the top scorer of science in Donghai's college entrance examination at the age of 18. In order to avenge his bullied parents, he stabbed someone and was imprisoned for three years. After he was released from prison, he came out to make a living.
He was once an extremely outstanding student, a genius, a proud son of heaven, and a 'child of others'.
He had once believed that knowledge could change fate, but the incident during the summer vacation when he was 18 changed everything.
Not only did it completely change the trajectory of his life, but it also distorted his values.
That was why he came out to mingle.
It had been twelve years, and the Champion Wang had successfully caught up with the veteran forces represented by Guaizi Zhao, Yan Jiu, and Yuan Erbao. He was twenty to thirty years younger than them, but he was now sitting on the same level as them.
No money!
No background!
He also had no connections!
But the champion did it.
Why did he do it?
This had to mention the ambition of the champion. Not only was he extremely smart, but he was also very, very good at making friends!
Six years ago, in July.
Li Ruotai, who was only twenty years old, was still studying in university and about to enter his third year. He came to Donghai with an astronomical sum of money and a terrifying family network.
Choose a site and build a building!
According to the plan at that time, it would take at least two years for the building to be completed from construction to renovation, regardless of the cost.
Two years later, Li Ruotai would graduate from university.
In the first two years, although Li Ruotai was still in university, he would frequently take a private jet to Donghai to meet some people.
He was a dragon who crossed the river, but a local tyrant was not willing to provoke him easily. Instead, he was a dragon who crossed the river and was willing to befriend him.
Li Ruotai quickly established his own network in Donghai.
He had laid the foundation for the opening of the Crown Club and the expansion of the Li family.
It was during this period that Scholar Wang met Li Ruotai before Guaizi Zhao and the others!
Back then, Scholar Wang had quite a bit of influence, but he was still incomparable to the other three. However, Guaizi Zhao and the others would not easily touch Scholar Wang. Even if they destroyed Scholar Wang, their losses would not be small.
Wang Zhuangyuan first got close to Li Ruotai.
Li Ruotai helped him.
Then, four years ago, Scholar Wang quickly reached the same level as Guaizi Zhao and the others. He successfully increased the number of big shots in the Eastern Sea Route from three to four.
In recent years, these four top figures of the Eastern Sea Path had been fighting each other openly and covertly. They all wanted to destroy each other, and they all wanted to become the strongest!
The peak of the conflict was in April this year.
A hotel under Yan Jiu that provided massage services had been bombed.
The case was reported on the news. It was reported that the underground pipeline of the hotel had ignited and leaked, causing an accidental explosion, causing many hotel employees to be injured. One of them was seriously injured. It was an accident.
Of course, this was not an accident.
Although no one died, it also caused one of Yan Jiu's trusted agents, the nominal owner of the hotel, to be sent directly to prison!
He still hadn't fished it out.
This matter made Li Ruotai explode!
Logically speaking, Li Ruotai should be biased towards the Champion Wang. The Champion Wang was personally promoted by him. It had been several years. If Li Ruotai really supported him, then by this year, the Champion Wang should have been stronger than Guaizi Zhao and the others. He might even have become the sole leader.
But there was nothing!
Li Ruotai did not do that.
Because he wanted balance!
A core disciple from a super family couldn't possibly be a silkpants. Li Ruotai had his own wisdom. He knew very well that once a family became the dominant one, it would be a problem for him to control it well!
There was another problem, which was to shoot the bird that stood out!
In the current era, if one really wanted to dominate a big city, they would not be far from death.
If something really happened, the higher-ups would deal a thunderous blow to Donghai. Not only would those people in the underworld be finished, but Li Ruotai would also find it difficult to distance himself from it.
Li Ruotai wanted balance and stability!
Therefore, even though the Scholar Wang knew him first, in recent years, the relationship between the four of them and him was not much different. It seemed that they could all be called trusted aides, but... they all maintained a sense of distance that was difficult to break through.
Li Ruotai was in the business of sensuality, so he inevitably had to have relations with the people of the Tokaido. If he wanted to expand and do better, he had to deal with them.
For example, where did Li Ruotai's group of high-quality technicians come from?
Of course, it was sent up from below.
If it wasn't necessary, Li Ruotai wouldn't have dealt with these ruffians. Guaizi Zhao and the others were so powerful that their status could only be compared to those local tycoons with a net worth of less than a billion.
They couldn't be compared at all. There was still a difference in level.
However, ruffians were ruffians after all. They did the most unsafe business. With Li Ruotai's background and connections, he could destroy them if he wanted to!
This was why Li Ruotai, who had been through the river, could become the big brother of the big brother in the local underworld of East Ocean.
He had a close relationship with them, but he also kept a distance from them. He maintained the balance between the four of them, understood them, and could control them.
After the explosion in April.
At the beginning of May, Li Ruotai gathered the four of them, as well as the famous ruthless characters and the older generation in the Eastern Sea Road. He was extremely angry and directly said something to the death.
Whoever dared to start a fight again, he would personally chop them up!
These secret meetings were the " May Gathering " that Wu Chen had mentioned when he had called Guaizi Zhao using Li Ruotai's name yesterday.
……
Wu Chen went back to his room to get his laptop. Then, he went back to the living room and sat on the sofa to read the news.
Wu Chen did not think too much about Scholar Wang sending people to follow him. He understood Scholar Wang's personality and style of doing things, so he knew why.
To put it bluntly, he wanted to get close to Wu Chen. He probably wanted to get to know Wu Chen first, then find the right opportunity, or even create a coincidence, so that he could get to know Wu Chen in private and build a relationship with him.
This way, he would have the upper hand in the competition with Guaizi Zhao and the others!
This was the reason why Wu Chen didn't pay much attention to them despite knowing that they were being followed.
Because he knew there was no danger.
Not only would there be no danger, but it was even very likely that the champion would directly give him benefits and gifts!
11 PM.
Wu Chen put away his computer and went back to his room to sleep.
A good night's sleep.
A new day!
July 9th, 2020, 7 AM!
Wu Chen woke up on time. He picked up his phone and smiled when he saw the time that had not been reset.
Although he had long confirmed that time would not be reset passively, he still smiled when he saw the new date!
Because a life with a future was really too awesome!
Her legs hurt a little from exercising yesterday, but it didn't affect her walking.
Wu Chen got up, washed up, changed his clothes, and went downstairs for breakfast.
Just as Wu Chen walked out of the building.
At the entrance of the building, a bespectacled man who was leaning against the wall and smoking suddenly stood up straight. He threw the cigarette away and stepped on it to extinguish it. Then, he waved his hand to sweep away the smoke around him. He looked at Wu Chen and said,"Mr. Wu, yesterday I…"
"You're so idle." Wu Chen turned to look at him and replied.
It was the champion!
The ground was littered with cigarette butts. She did not know how early he had arrived or how long he had been waiting at the entrance.
