Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Chapter 556: Dali’s Pan-Entertainment Civil Technology Group Corporation!

“If this is true, it can be quite troublesome,” Mu Tie said when he finished reading all the information. “Lin Chuyin’s technological developments are quite strong. The Mechanical Holy Garment is the best example. Zhang Yi is even stronger than her, it seems Hattori Jiro won’t be easy to handle indeed. That’s why ordinary policemen were not sent. There is no need to cause so many casualties and unnecessary panic.”

Having special abilities due to mutant genes. His speed and strength far exceeded ordinary people.

It was like asking ordinary policemen to deal with Spiderman. That would be a joke. Other than causing a large number of casualties, it was meaningless.

“Hmm, that’s one of the things.” Hong Weiguo looked at both of them with certainty. “The second thing is, I have decided to return to the Chamber of Commerce!”

Hong Weiguo spoke very clearly. But Liu Yihui and Mu Tie thought they might have heard wrongly.

Liu Yihui anxiously said, “Weiguo, that can’t be? You were impeached. Why would you return? Isn’t everything okay now? With all that happened at the meeting, I doubt there will be a meeting next year.”

He wasn’t worrying for nothing. There were too many changes at the meeting this time. It was hard to predict what would happen in the future.

Mu Tie asked, “Weiguo, why do you want to go back? Can you tell us?”

“It’s simple.” Hong Weiguo smiled and appeared content. It was the look of a father of a capable son. “My Dali is no longer just a small character. I want to lay the groundwork so he can squander all he wants.”

“Hmm, your Dali is indeed no longer a little prodigal.” Liu Yihui touched his chin and suddenly smiled. “He is a super prodigal now. Alright, if I were you, I would want to lay the groundwork for him, too. Bring the Chamber of Commerce together again. That will be the best way to provide resources and strategy. After all, there is a difference between an impeached member and an inner circle member. It will be different when you need the government’s help.”

The Resource Chamber of Commerce. The biggest benefit of a member of the inner circle was getting the support of the government.

One should understand that at that level, it made a big difference to have the government’s support.

“It’s good that you want to go back, but…” Mu Tie frowned and slowly said, “Impeached members have never been able to return. The key point is that impeached members basically went bankrupt and were no longer eligible to return. Now that Sangle is reorganized, in other words, you are a general without an army. We can pull strings in terms of relationship, but inner circle members are required to have at least ten billion in assets. That’s a rule. It won’t be easy to settle that. If it was the outer circle it’d be easier. You could easily gather two billion.”

“Hmm, that’s problematic, indeed.” Hearing that, Hong Weiguo frowned as well.

There was a hard rule for inner circle members. First, they must own their own company. Second, the company must own more than ten billion hard assets.

If these two rules were not fulfilled, no one else could help them. Not even if the five magnates jointly approved.

Those were hard rules. No exceptions!

“Seems like it won’t be easy to return in the near future.” Hong Weiguo tapped on the table with his fingers. Hard assets of more than ten billion meant having a proper company, with headquarters, employees, own their own business. Not just a company in name and pulling some strings.

“How about this.” Liu Yihui’s eyes lit up. “Weiguo, we have personal relations. If you wish to return, the members of the inner circle are sure to be on your side. What we’re short of is the company. We could register all our companies. Instead of using your name, how about we use Dali’s name? We’ll name it Dali Technologies!”

Mu Tie agreed. “Yes, yes, yes. We’ll name it Dali Technologies! It will be a new company, we could merge Sangle as well. Your Dali will be the spokesman for Dali Technologies. You can be one of the top management. The Chamber of Commerce never said impeached members could not join other companies after their company goes bankrupt. Let’s do this. With your Dali’s capability, it should be no problem to get a ten-billion-dollar asset.”

“Yes, yes, yes. That’s a good idea!” Liu Yihui clapped in agreement. “Both Old Tie and I will invest, you can have the foundation and the Qian Enterprise. Dali can do some of his magic. It should be no problem.”

Historically, companies of impeached members of the Resource Chamber of Commerce mostly went bankrupt. Driven into a corner and bleak, they would do some small business just to get by. There were lots of hiccups this time. Hong Weiguo was impeached and the impact was not too big. Qian Guangzhao got impeached and his company got taken over by Hong Weiguo. Although Hong Weiguo didn’t have mass support, his groundwork was massive.

If accordingly to plan, it was indeed possible for Hong Weiguo to return to the Chamber of Commerce.

With everything discussed, Hong Weiguo banged on the table fiercely. “It’s decided, then! Next, we just need to take over Qian Enterprise, restructure it, and name it Dali Technologies!”

…

In the next few days, a new company emerged in the Heavenly State economic market.

Dali’s Pan-Entertainment Civil Technology Group Corporation!

A corporate group was a group of companies that were organized and acted together for a certain purpose. With the parent company as the main body and the group constitution as the code. The parent company, subsidiaries, shareholding companies, and other members formed a corporate legal entity. It generally operated large-scale assets, governed many productions and business units, and had interests in many other companies.

Since Hong Weiguo wanted to return to the Chamber of Commerce, the best way to establish a company was through a corporate group.

With Hong Weiguo’s, Liu Yihui’s, and Mu Tie’s networks, for them to set up a group company, its scale would definitely shock everyone!

With the intention of laying the groundwork for Hong Dali, this company would have to be the best!

The registrant of this company would be Hong Dali!

“Haha, Weiguo, now that we have registered the company. Next,” Liu Yihui laughed as he smoked. “would be to gather more people to join our chariot! Count Turkey in.”

“Jianbao Plaza definitely has to join, too.” Mu Tie beamed. “Together with Sangle, the three internet giants are now completely tied together. Hahaha!”

“Hahaha! Good!” Hong Weiguo was fearless. He shouted, “Let’s make it big!”

“I keep feeling like something is missing.” Li Yihui smacked his lips. “We should take our oaths in the peach garden 1 or something…”

“Hmm, that works. En, it’s hard to find a peach garden here, but I know there’s a plum garden around here.” Mu Tie laughed out loud. “Let’s go to the plum garden to take oaths to become sworn brothers. We can imitate the wise men of the past!”

“Plum garden, US dollar 1” Hong Weiguo hugged his stomach as he laughed. “Okay! Let’s take our oaths in the plum garden!”

“En. Haha. It’s decided, then!” Liu Yihui sucked hard on the cigarette. He suddenly felt like they had gone back to the age when they fooled around. “There should be some sounds. How about we light firecrackers? Someone should also recite something for the occasion.”

“En, that’s necessary!” Hong Dali was right. Friends of amusing idiots would be amusing idiots as well. Mu Tie joined in the fun. “Weiguo, your Dali always has good ideas. He can write songs, right? How about you give him a call to see if he has any good verses? We’ll make it proper!”

Hong Weiguo took out his smartphone with a funny face. “I’ll call, then?”

“Call!””Call!”

Soon, the line was connected. Hong Dali’s lazy voice was heard. “Dad, what’s the matter?”

“Dali ah,” Hong Weiguo sounded strange. “Do you have any suitable verses for oaths to become sworn brothers? I have a… I have a friend who wants to try taking oaths at the peach garden.” He wanted to tell Hong Dali he was the one who wanted the verses, but when he considered his image, he quickly changed what he wanted to say.

Mu Tie and Liu Yihui: “The old guy is too proud.”

“Ah? Taking oaths at the peach garden ah. I indeed have verses for that. Wait a while, Dad. I’ll send the message over!” Hong Dali nodded decisively. “I’ve really thought about this before. I originally planned to film the Romance of the Three Kingdoms or something like that. You can let your friend use it first. Hehe.”

“Alright, I’ll wait.”

About half an hour later, in a plum garden on the outskirts of Tianhai City.

The garden was located near Dingwu Lake, backed by Longshan Cuiping, and built on the mountain. The plum trees formed like a mountain, close to the mountain and far from water. It was like a virtual picture of nature. In the early spring when the plum blossoms bloomed, a snowy sea was formed with a fragrant aroma. As it was August, the plum blossoms had naturally not bloomed—that was minor, there was no need to look in-depth…

Hong Weiguo rented the entire place, prepared oxen and white horses, lit candles and joss sticks, all in preparation for the brotherhood oath.

Levis took the verses given by Hong Dali for the oath and looked solemn.

As he was not from Heavenly State, he didn’t understand most of what was on the paper. He knew it was an important day, it was the day three bosses would become sworn brothers. That was a big matter in Heavenly State. Hence, he read it very seriously.

But the verses were a little hard to compliment…
