Chu Hang replied: "It is precisely because they know that their hope is slim that they are more eager to get my help. Moreover, the exchange terms I get for helping them are the best."

Zhang Xi secretly admired Chu Hang's reverse thinking ability. He agreed and started to act immediately.

Six o'clock sharp in the morning.

Accompanied by Zhang Xi, Chu Hang and Ming Xiang walked into the restaurant's VIP room.

The middle-aged man with dark brown skin sitting in the room stood up immediately.

With a big smile, he introduced himself and said, "I am Professor Silva. It is the honor of my life to meet Mr. Chu."

When Silva learned of Chu Hang's intention to sponsor the candidate, he was overjoyed.

He knew Chu Hang's strength. This was undoubtedly a rare chance given to him by God to turn the tables, and he must seize it firmly.

Zhang Xi wanted to translate, but Chu Hang shook his head: "I'm good at French, no need to translate, it saves time to talk this way."

Chu Hang shook hands with Silva, asked him to sit down, and said with a smile:

"Let's talk while we eat. I have to hurry back, so I hope we can talk openly. If I support your election, what can you give me in return?"

His question was too direct, which was a little unnatural for Silva, who came from a scholar background.

He shrugged and said, "That depends on how you want me to thank you. As long as I'm elected, I'll agree to anything within my powers."

"I don't want anything else. I just want an island in Lepa, and the ownership belongs to my friend. Can you do it?"

Chu Hang took a sip of milk and asked with a smile.

Silva raised an eyebrow, he had not expected such conditions.

The world-famous tycoon is really willful. It is unbelievable that people would support his election just for an island.

Silva asked about the location of the island. He paused for a moment and said, "We have laws that prohibit selling it to foreigners, but there are ways. After I am elected, as long as Mr. Chu invests more in Lepa, I can give it as a gift to thank international friends, and this will not cause a backlash from fishing boats."

Chu Hang was delighted; this result was better than he had expected.

He immediately asked, "How much do you think I need to invest to be able to give you the island as a gift?"

Silva smiled and said, "It's similar to the investment amount of this big hotel... As he said that, Silva dipped his cup of coffee and wrote X5 on the table."

It's really a lion's mouth.

Chu Hang didn't know the exact investment amount of this hotel.

But based on his experience, not counting the land price, it would be at least over 10 million yuan.

What Silva wants is an investment of five hundred million yuan.

"Professor Silva, you rank third in support among the candidates, so your chances of winning are slim. However, I will invest in local media and advertising companies to allow you to monopolize publicity until election day. This will increase your chances of turning the tables."

Chu Hang leaned back and knocked on the table.

His meaning was clear, warning Silva not to lose sight of the situation.

Silva smiled slyly: "I am very grateful for your support. In return, you will have the first choice to invest in any place where Lepa is located. Mr. Chu should be satisfied with this return, right?

"make a deal."

Chu Hang no longer hesitated and directly extended his hand, "I will entrust a team to discuss the specific details with you.

Although Silva held Chu Hang's hand, his face looked a little confused.

He was talking about the quotation. I thought Chu Hang would bargain, but I didn't expect him to agree so quickly.

Six-thirty.

Chu Hang and Mingxiang waved goodbye to Zhang Xi and Wang Qi, and got into the car prepared by the hotel on time.

"Morning, Mr. Chu. Good morning. How is the scenery in Lepa? What impression does it leave on you?"

A tall, dark-skinned beauty was already sitting in the back seat of the car. She smiled and greeted Chu Hang.

Chu Hang knew that she was the candidate with the lowest support, the retired supermodel Emily.

"You sitting here is the most beautiful scenery of Lepa." Chu Hang replied with a smile.

"Thank you for the compliment." Emily was in a good mood and immediately said, "Let me tell you about my vision for the development of Lepa..."

Chu Hang waved his hand and said bluntly: "Voters may care about your ideas, but I am just a passer-by in Lepa, you don't need to talk to me."

Emily was a little puzzled: "I heard from Zhang Xi that you want to support my election. If I don't talk to you, why would you support me?"

Chu Hang replied: "I have seen the data from your media. Your support rate is too low. Even if I support you, I am afraid it will be difficult for you to win."

Emily's face darkened.

She wondered if the tycoon was playing a trick on her.

Chu Hang smiled and said, "I have a suggestion that I hope you will consider. You can run for election with Silva. He will be the principal and you will be the deputy. As long as you have control over Lepa, all your ideas will hopefully come true."

Emily was stunned for a long time before she said, "I know my hope is slim. Of course I am willing to join forces, but why would Silva agree to join forces with me? He should be more willing to join forces with the second place."

Chu Hang shook his finger: "The No. 1 is keeping a close eye on the No. 2. They are fighting fiercely and throwing dirty water at each other. They didn't pay attention to you two, which gave you two the best chance to fight. Don't worry, I'll go and convince Silva."

Emily felt that this rich man was so powerful that everything seemed to be under his control.

She couldn't help but ask the question that concerned her most: "Why are you helping us?"

After Chu Hang stated his conditions, he smiled and said, "Silva has agreed to my conditions. I hope that when the time comes to give me the island, it will be you who personally presents the medal and the golden key of the island to my friend."

Emily pursed her lips and smiled: "It is my honor, but I would rather confer the honor on Mr. Chu."

The plane took off on time at seven o'clock, and Mingxiang finally had the opportunity to talk to Chu Hang alone.

"Chairman, Silvaso wants to invest 50 million. I was surprised that you agreed so easily. I also don't think Mr. Tang would agree."

Mingxiang expressed his concerns.

"It doesn't matter whether Old Tang agrees or not. If he doesn't want to invest, then I will. It's a small matter."

Chu Hang looked down at the Lepa map and answered casually.

In fact, he had studied the basic situation of Lepa when he had nothing to do in the early morning, and he had long been eyeing two places in Lepa where he could build a deep-water port.

As long as you keep investing, you can make your money back through tourism and ship berthing.

And its strategic value will be even greater in the future.

Mingxiang was short-sighted and could not see the mystery at all. He still thought it was blackmail and was still feeling bad about his 50 million investment.

Chu Hang stopped explaining, he put away the map and said:

"This plane will fly directly to Shenzhen. Once in Shenzhen, you can follow the plane back to Beijing. When you meet Old Tang, explain what happened. He will tell you how worthwhile this investment is."
