How did I become a god

Chapter 1702 Arriving at the Office
Jing Gao was not as concerned about his "business empire" as outsiders imagined.

Regardless of how financial media use grand terms like "commercial aircraft carrier," "trillion-dollar empire," and "invincible fleet" to describe his industrial clusters.

For him, this was more of a natural consequence of being a super-rich person with unlimited cards, rather than an ultimate goal that he needed to pursue for a lifetime.

Life, at most, is only about 30,000 days. For a super-rich person, after ensuring the basic security of themselves and their wealth, the most important thing is undoubtedly to enjoy life to the fullest!
Fine wine, beautiful women, world-class scenery, and exquisite delicacies—all the ultimate pleasures in the world are indispensable.

Of course, modern health concepts are deeply ingrained in his mind and body. He rarely drinks alcohol and almost never smokes. He only sips a little red wine or champagne on certain occasions, or savors a fine cigar.

His current drinks are mostly health-preserving Chinese herbal beverages.

As for business success or failure? He has unlimited funds to back him up, so he has the capital to turn things around no matter what mistakes he makes. His daily "briefing" time, which he now has to spend an hour on, is also being reduced.

He usually just hands it over to Xiao Li (Zhang Li) and asks her if there's anything urgent that requires his decision. If not, he's too lazy to look through it.

The sources of people's covetousness towards your wealth vary depending on your social standing.

Now he has almost reached the pinnacle of the business world. Surrounding him are no longer the second- or third-rate figures of the past, but huge capital (such as Fosun Group, Alibaba, and Meituan), top predators hidden behind the scenes (such as the Mellon family of America's Upper Three Flags and the Youtai family), and top second-generation figures with amazing power.

Mingyuan Group, which swallowed Zhou Mingyang's assets of over 400 billion yuan, has won a great victory, but it has also offended many people and attracted more complex and dangerous attention.

But this was also a tempering process, which forged his safety barrier into an even stronger one.

In terms of long-term security planning and protecting his wealth, there are four directions: First, allow state-owned assets to participate, like Vanke, Wahaha, and Gree, to form a certain degree of binding and become a state-owned enterprise.

Secondly, he became part of an academic clique, using the clique's advisors and influence to conceal his enormous wealth.

Third, it opens up new overseas markets for China's huge domestic production capacity, which aligns with a higher-level strategy; fourth, it lays out modern agriculture to influence a wider range of grassroots communities, thus ensuring a solid foundation.

These groups have already determined their future development strategies, and they have their own shrewd and capable professional managers and think tanks to promote and implement them.

Of these four directions, the only thing he might need to do personally is to take the postgraduate entrance exam at Fudan University to obtain a degree and facilitate integration into certain circles. As for the other specific matters, he doesn't need to worry about them; funds and talent will automatically flow to where they're needed.

But I'm out of mana, aren't I? Even with such a beauty in my arms, I'm still only at the Saint Realm. I guess I'll just have to rest for a few days and focus on my work!
That evening, he returned to Tomson Golf Villas and spent the night alone.

The next morning, feeling much more refreshed, he had breakfast with Guan Yujia, Zheng Xiaobing, Feng Wan, Xi Siyan, Guo Qianqian and other female friends. Then, he took his assistants, Zhang Li, Wen Xiaoli and Chu Wenjun, who arrived on time, and drove to the headquarters of the Bank of East Asia in Lujiazui.

...

...

Jing Gao's office is located on the 39th floor of the East Asia Bank Building.

With the revocation of Bank of East Asia's banking license, it is unable to conduct banking business in mainland China and can only engage in other financial businesses, thus freeing up its office space.

Now the entire floor belongs to his office area.

The elevator doors open to reveal an extremely spacious and fully-equipped top-tier office space. It includes a main office, a reception area, multiple meeting rooms, a private dining room, and a lounge.

There was also a small gym equipped with top-of-the-line equipment, enough to meet all his needs for working, meeting guests, entertaining, and relaxing. Jing Gao casually sat behind the large rosewood desk, and Zhang Li followed him with a smile, turning on the computer.

Wen Xiaoli, who was a few steps behind, pushed open the door and came in with a thermos cup, while the petite and beautiful Chu Wenjun remained at the assistant's work desk in the office.

This office occupies an entire corner of the building, with huge floor-to-ceiling glass curtain walls on both sides, offering an unobstructed view of the magnificent Huangpu River and the Bund's collection of international architecture on the opposite bank, as if the entire prosperity of Shanghai is unfolding beneath your feet.

The interior design is a perfect blend of modern minimalism and new Chinese elements, revealing unparalleled luxury in a low-key manner.

Several large LCD screens hang on the wall, displaying real-time global financial data and key indicators of the group. The antique display shelf next to it is not filled with gaudy gold and jade ornaments, but quietly displays Song and Ming porcelain, which are warm and simple.

The air was filled with a faint, calming scent of sandalwood, which was very pleasant.

Because of Jing Gao's "sudden idea" to work seriously, Zhang Li, the chief secretary who was on vacation, had to interrupt her vacation and return to her post.

Fortunately, Guo Qianqian, a beautiful woman from Zhejiang University with outstanding abilities and even more outstanding figure, assisted her, which greatly reduced her work pressure.

"Xiao Li, what are my plans for today?" Jing Gao leaned back slightly in his comfortable leather chair and asked.

Zhang Li picked up her tablet and reported clearly, "Brother Jing, today's main arrangement is to hear President An's detailed report on Phoenix Group's development strategy for the next five years. He has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Okay, when will he arrive?"

Jing Gao took the cup of warm, nourishing, and palatable Chinese herbal drink that Wen Xiaoli handed him at the right time and drank it all in one gulp.

This 37-year-old former national first-class dancer has a dignified and quiet temperament, and her movements are always so elegant and graceful.

He recalled that Chu Wenjun was also present when they first discussed this strategy. At that time, when he proposed the general direction of "following Alibaba," Wenjun's eyes were full of admiration.

It seems that An Zhiwen and his team have already put together a preliminary plan.

Zhang Li checked the information and replied, "The company's Gulfstream G550 is already waiting at the airport. It will take off after Mr. An boards, and the estimated arrival time here is 10:30 a.m.

While airspace management for private aircraft in China is indeed strict and requires advance application and registration, for the resource-rich Phoenix Group, ensuring smooth travel is not a difficult task.

"Okay." Jing Gao nodded and called to Wen Xiaoli, who was about to turn around and give instructions to the kitchen: "Lili, tell the kitchen to prepare a more substantial lunch. Lao An and I will eat and talk. Hmm, Guan Guan will come to keep us company."

"Okay, Mr. Jing." Wen Xiaoli knew what to do, so she softly agreed and gracefully left.

...

...

At this moment, a Gulfstream G550 private jet belonging to Deer Jet and painted with the Phoenix Group logo is soaring smoothly on the route to Shanghai.
