Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Chapter 457: You answered correctly, but there was no reward.

Upon hearing the intelligence officer's words, everyone immediately gathered around the computer.

Sure enough, they saw a coordinate system slowly moving, and it wasn't too far away from them!
They sent a boat to catch up with the signal source on the computer, but there was nothing on the sea, confirming the captain's words.
Yaqi looked at Chen Jiajun and said, "Boss, what do we do? Are we supposed to keep chasing them? This yacht can't go very far!"

Chen Jiajun looked at the map around him, pondered for a moment, and pointed to a blank area, saying, "What is this place?"

"It seems to be called Xilu Island. It's a deserted island with nothing on it!" the intelligence officer said to Chen Jiajun after looking at the map.

Chen Jiajun took out his satellite phone and dialed Bai Lu's number: "Bai Lu, I need you to come over here!"

"Got it, boss!" Bai Lu said and hung up the phone immediately.

Chen Jiajun directly selected remote summoning on the system page and summoned Bailu, who was in Brunei.

A dazzling blue magic circle lit up, and Bai Lu stepped out of it the next second.

Chen Jiajun nodded and greeted Bai Lu: "I want to bring a yacht up from the seabed. Can you do that?"

After listening, Bai Lu's big eyes suddenly shone with a deep, dark blue, like the sea.

"Of course!"

As the White Queen who has been the Phoenix Host twice, her Phoenix Power is extraordinary. After such a long period of summoning, her Phoenix Power has been largely unleashed by the system.

Chen Jiajun snapped his fingers and said, "Very good, blow this thing towards the spot on the map and lift it up!"

Bai Lu nodded, then followed Chen Jiajun to the deck.

Chen Jiajun said with a sneer, "Ether will think I can't do anything to them, well, just wait and see!"

After the boat had sailed quite a distance, Bai Lu closed her eyes, gently lifted her hands, and a ripple appeared on the originally calm sea surface.

Then a cold wind blew over, making everyone on the ship feel a chill.

Then the wind grew stronger and began to converge in the direction indicated by Bailu, forming a small column of wind!

As time went on, the wind column grew stronger and stronger, and a tornado was formed at sea.

Once a tornado takes shape, it continuously stirs up the seawater, growing larger and larger, and the power of the natural disaster slowly becomes apparent.

Meanwhile, on a submarine at the bottom of the sea.

Sean and Wei Hong are frustrated about how to explain the failure of this mission.

Suddenly, the submarine's power system was cut off, red emergency lights flashed, and then a piercing alarm sounded, leaving the two people in the meeting room completely bewildered.

"What happened?" Sean immediately grabbed a sailor and asked.

The sailor said anxiously, "There's a storm at sea nearby, and it's heading towards our submarine!"

"What, a storm at sea?" Sean was immediately taken aback.

The sailor didn't have time to talk to Sean and immediately returned to his post.

Wei Hong asked nervously, "Mr. Sean, will something bad happen?"

Sean wasn't entirely sure either, but he reassured Wei Hong, saying, "Don't worry, so many countries have submarines. Look, that submarine was involved in the storm, right? I'll go talk to the submarine's pilot!"

With that, Sean went straight to the cockpit and asked the pilot, "What's going on?"

"Sir, a waterspout has inexplicably appeared and is rapidly approaching us!" The pilot, also sweating profusely, said while operating the submarine.

Seeing the tense look on their faces, Sean immediately became anxious: "Stop talking nonsense, are we in danger?"

The driver could only say, "If we were to be hit head-on by this tornado, our yacht could very well be swept into the sky! This waterspout is so strange; our weather monitoring equipment didn't detect it at all!"

"What?" Sean's eyes widened immediately upon hearing this.

It's worth noting that this submarine weighs several thousand tons, yet it was able to be lifted directly into the sky.

What a terrifying waterspout must be!

Thinking of this, Sean quickly asked, "Is it possible to dodge?"

"We...we're trying!" the driver said ambiguously.

Upon hearing this, Sean knew the submarine was beyond saving and went straight to the captain: "There's still a life pod on the submarine, right?"

The captain, also covered in sweat, suddenly brightened up upon hearing Sean's reminder, then hesitated before saying, "Yes, but the number of life pods that can accommodate everyone is limited... I'm afraid we won't be able to get everyone out!"

“Abandon the others!” Sean said coldly. “You have a few pilots coming with me; the rest are out of the question!”

"But..." The captain was still a little reluctant.

But Sean coldly replied, "Didn't you hear my command?"

The captain shuddered and quickly replied, "Yes, sir!"

Since they were prepared to abandon the others, the captain ordered all the hatches to be sealed, and then led Sean to the submarine's escape pod from the other side.

After a series of maneuvers by the pilots, the submarine ejected the massive escape pod.

The escape pod's bottom booster immediately changed course, propelling it rapidly in the opposite direction and upwards towards the sea.

The other sailors trapped inside the submarine, including Wei Hong, were unaware of this.

By the time they realized it, it was obviously too late.

"The captain has escaped with his men, and we're trapped at the bottom of the sea!" the sailor said in a panic.

Upon hearing the sailor's words, panic began to spread throughout the submarine.

Wei Hong quickly sensed something was wrong and pulled one of the sailors aside to ask, "What exactly happened?"

"Hahaha, they all escaped, leaving us here to die! Hahaha!"

The sheer terror of the deep sea is enough to drive people insane, and the current desperate situation caused many sailors to lose their minds on the spot, even starting fights among themselves.

Wei Hong was terrified and frantically pounded on the submarine's hatch.

But the next moment, a dizzying sensation struck him, and then he lost consciousness.

……

When Wei Hong woke up again, he found that the submarine had stabilized.

Looking out the submarine window, he discovered that he had miraculously survived and had landed on a deserted island.

As we walked out of the breach in the submarine, it was already dawn.

The feeling of surviving a disaster caused Wei Hong to break down in tears.

Many of the sailors inside the submarine also survived, and their condition was similar to Wei Hong's.

After venting their emotions, everyone will need to consider how to leave the island.

The sailors started discussing amongst themselves, and Wei Hong couldn't get a word in edgewise. Just as a group of sailors were about to use the submarine's radio to contact nearby ships...

Wei Hong suddenly spotted a yacht on the vast sea.

This immediately excited everyone, and they quickly found some things on the island to start a fire and send out a distress signal.

And they shouted loudly in an attempt to attract the attention of the ships.

Their efforts paid off; through binoculars, they spotted the cruise ship heading their way. As the yacht drew closer, Hai Yuan and Wei Hong retrieved inflatable life rafts from the submarine and approached the yacht.

The sea is too shallow here; if the yacht gets too close, it could easily run aground.

Upon seeing the group of distressed sailors, the people on the yacht helped pull them aboard.

"Thank you, thank you so much!" Wei Hong thanked the people on the yacht with a flustered expression, but when he looked up and saw the owner of the yacht, he was stunned.

That's right, this yacht was brought here by Chen Jiajun.

At this moment, Chen Jiajun, holding a glass of whiskey, looked at Wei Hong with a playful expression and said, "Wei Hong, Boss Wei, right? You're really hard to find!"

Wei Hong felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and he stammered, "Mr. Chen... Mr. Chen?"

"Surprised? Unexpected?" Chen Jiajun sneered at Wei Hong, "You even dared to take over my stuff, you've got some nerve!"

Wei Hong's teeth chattered incessantly, making a strange "clucking" sound, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

He never dreamed that the person on this ship would be Chen Jiajun.

If he had known earlier, he would have preferred to starve to death on a deserted island rather than board this ship.

Now, even if he jumped into the sea, it would be too late.

He could only force a smile that looked more like a grimace and said, "Mr. Chen, I'm afraid there's been a misunderstanding here!"

"Misunderstanding?" Chen Jiajun sneered, "I'd like to hear what misunderstanding you, a guy from the Ether Society, have!"

Hearing Chen Jiajun mention the Ether Meeting so readily shattered any remaining glimmer of hope Wei Hong had.

He could only say, his face ashen, "Mr. Chen, I was bewitched. Can I sell my life for money? I have a ton of gold, I can give it all to you!"

Chen Jiajun's face darkened, and he kicked Wei Hong to the ground.

Chen Jiajun used all his strength in that kick, leaving Wei Hong unable to get up for a long time.
He clutched his abdomen, sweating profusely.

Chen Jiajun grabbed his hair and pulled him up, slapped him across the face, and said coldly, "You think I don't know that batch of gold belongs to Mr. Zheng and the Zhou family from Hong Kong? You're about to die and you're still trying to play tricks on me!"

"I..." Wei Hong struggled to get up, his eyes filled with fear as he tried to say something to Chen Jiajun.

But Chen Jiajun had lost patience and ordered his intelligence agents to drag him away: "I want results before we get ashore!"

"I know, boss!"

The intelligence officers grinned maliciously, and the two men dragged the begging Wei Hong into the yacht's cabin.

Then, a piercing scream rang out from inside the cabin.

This left the sailors who had survived the ordeal with expressions of terror on their faces.

Chen Jiajun smiled and reassured them, "Personal grudges have nothing to do with you, but you know what to say after we get ashore, right?"

These sailors, now fully aware of who Chen Jiajun was, quickly nodded in agreement.

After the yacht returned, the intelligence officers finally managed to get everything Chen Jiajun wanted out of him.

They used every means at their disposal, their bodies stained with blood like demons: "Boss, I found out! That Sean from the Ether Society escaped with the captain and pilot in the life pod when the tornado hit!"

"Hmph!" Chen Jiajun sneered, "Just as expected of these people! Luckily, I had a backup plan!"

The subordinate continued, "This guy has a lot of wealth, with assets worth close to several hundred million, whether openly or secretly. Most of them are in the hands of his mistress Tiffany, so getting them shouldn't be difficult!"

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "Yaqi, go and take care of this!"

……

A few hours ago, at sea.

The life pod surfaced, and Sean and his group witnessed a terrifying waterspout lift their submarine from the seabed and slam it onto an unnamed island.

Although the height it was rolled up to wasn't very high, it was still an extremely terrifying sight to be able to roll up a behemoth weighing nearly 3000 tons from the seabed.

The people present almost forgot to breathe.

Fortunately, the tornado quickly left the area and continued its journey, allowing everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.

Sean took out his satellite phone and dialed a number.

About an hour later, the sound of a helicopter could be heard in the distance.

"We're saved!" The captain and the others all showed a look of joy. As the helicopter approached, they immediately climbed up the rope ladder.

Sean climbed onto the plane, patted the person pulling him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "I almost didn't make it back!"

The person who boarded the plane with Rashan was just a double agent, Su Xingbai.

Su Xingbo smiled and said to Sean, "Why are you in such a mess?"

Sean spread his hands and said, "We were hiding well underwater, avoiding Chen Jiajun's sight, but we never expected to encounter a waterspout!"

Where is Wei Hong?

"He's probably dead by now!" Sean said nonchalantly. "Anyway, he's no longer of any use to us! It saves the organization some money!"

Upon hearing Sean's cold-blooded words, Su Xingbo revealed a strange smile and said, "The big boss was right after all. You bastards have never treated your partners as human beings, but merely as pawns on a chessboard!"

Upon hearing Su Xingbai's words, Sean's expression immediately turned cold.

Just as he was about to say something, he saw Su Xingbo pull out a pistol from his waist and fire several shots in quick succession, blowing the heads off the captain and several pilots next to Sean.

Sean's eyes widened immediately, and he asked, "What are you doing?"

Su Xingbo pointed the gun at Sean and said, "What do you think?"

"Wait, we can talk this over!" Sean quickly waved his hand and said, "Wei Hong was just an accident. You've been a partner we've cultivated for many years!"

Su Xingbo gave a mocking smile and said, "Sorry, I'm an undercover agent! Haven't you figured it out yet?"

"An undercover agent?" Sean's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

His mind was racing, trying to figure out what Su Xingbai meant by "undercover agent."
If Su Xingbo was never one of them from the beginning, then... there's only one person who could have done this.

That's Chen Jiajun!

Sean looked at Su Xingbo with a horrified expression and said, "You're actually one of Chen Jiajun's men!"

Su Xingbo smiled and said, "You got it right, but there's no reward!"

Sean said incredulously, "When exactly did this happen? We've been observing you all along. If you had sided with Chen Jiajun, we couldn't have been unaware!"

"You want to ask me when I got in touch with the big boss, right?" Su Xingbo said calmly, "I'm not afraid to tell you, when I was still a worthless scoundrel, I was already working for the big boss! The big boss's vision is beyond what you foreigners and fake foreigners can imagine!"

Sean stared at Su Xingbo in horror, speechless for a long time.

Based on the timeline, Chen Jiajun began making his plans even before Su Xingbo became the head of Yifeng.

Does that mean he planted this seed when Ether first clashed with Chen Jiajun?
What a terrifying scheme!
Su Xingbo said calmly, "Alright, you know what you need to know. Now, obediently come with me to see the big boss!"

Without further ado, Su Xingbo used the butt of his gun to smash Sean's neck, knocking him unconscious.

He then made a hand gesture to the helicopter pilot, and the helicopter began its return journey. (End of Chapter)
