Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

Le Mengyao asked with some curiosity, "What do you mean by that?"

"If men weren't greedy for money, how could they support their families? If men weren't lustful, then there would be no place for you women!"

"Why should we? We women hold up half the sky too, okay!"

"Think about it, if a man isn't interested in women, he won't treat you like princesses anymore. Instead, he'll see you as weak men. Do you think that will happen?"

Le Mengyao rolled her eyes at him and said irritably, "I heard from Xin'er that you have a lot of fallacies!"

Qin Kai chimed in, "Exactly! This guy says he wants to retire from the martial arts world, but I think he's just trying to fool people!"

Li Xiaofeng said with a wronged expression, "Where did I lie? I've already sold all the things that were easy to sell. The remaining businesses are just for fun."

Then, he looked at the two of them with a sly grin and said, "But you two are different. Mengyao is now involved in real estate, so you, as her fiancé, have to be more considerate of her!"

Qin Kai glanced at Le Mengyao and said to Li Xiaofeng in an annoyed tone, "So you were waiting for me here. So what if you're in real estate? Everyone buys their own property; there's no competition."

Besides, there are so many real estate companies, and I've never seen any of them fighting tooth and nail. Each development has its own unique advantages and selling points!

"Once there are many properties, how can there be no competition? You lower your price by 500, I lower mine by 1,000, you give away balconies, I give away renovations. Once demand drops, everyone will be scrambling to collect funds."

Besides your Qin Group, your Qin family also has your brother's Qin Real Estate, which is much stronger than Mengyao's in the real estate sector.

Besides, there's the issue of land acquisition. Even if the market is booming now and there's not much competition in housing sales, the competition for land is always fierce!

Le Mengyao rolled her eyes at Li Xiaofeng again and said in a nonchalant tone, "Our two families have been friends for decades. You can't just provoke us with a few words."

Qin Kai chimed in, "Exactly! Your method of instigating is so childish!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Where did I instigate? I was just telling you to take better care of Mengyao when you do business in the future. How did that become instigation?"

You know, Mengyao is technically my sister-in-law, a relative, family, much closer than your so-called family friend!

He was indeed trying to sow discord between the Qin and Le families, but he didn't expect to cause a rift between them with just a few casual words.

Li Xiaofeng's goal was to expose the competitive relationship between the two families in front of them, and to sow the seeds of discord in their minds. As long as there is a conflict of interest between the two families, this seed will only grow bigger and bigger.

The main reason for doing this is related to Wanzhong Media.

Li Xiaofeng sold Wanzhong Media, primarily to capitalize on the economic downturn and cash out in time, but the combined strength of the three companies was indeed difficult for him to handle.

This time he was lucky to have known about the economic crisis as a major weapon in advance, but what if the three companies unite against him in the future?

To be honest, if Li Xiaofeng had lost his advantage of being a time traveler, he would have had a hard time resisting Wanzhong Media's forced acquisition. Even if he managed to stop it for a while, what would happen afterward?

Don't be afraid of thieves stealing, just be afraid of thieves missing you.

If he can find a way to create some conflict among the three families, it will be much easier for him to deal with things in the future.

Le Mengyao took a deep breath, glanced at the two of them, and said in a light tone, "Xiaofeng, you haven't even married Xin'er, so I'm not your sister-in-law."

As for Kai, I'm not engaged to him. If our families were really engaged, it certainly wouldn't be done secretly; we'd at least announce it publicly!

Qin Kai glanced at Le Mengyao, then smiled and pointed at Li Xiaofeng: "As far as I know, Dingdian Films has been developing very rapidly recently, and its investment scale is quite large. I think this kid is afraid that your Le family will compete with him for the film and entertainment industry market."

Li Xiaofeng immediately scoffed and said, "President Qin, even if you're an outsider, you can't be this ignorant. Does the film and television industry need to compete for market share?"

If you make a good film or television series, people will naturally watch it. It's unacceptable that even if you make a great film or television series, no one will watch it, no matter how good other productions are. Content is king in this industry!

"As far as I know, you've snatched up a lot of film and television resources!"

"Stealing film and television resources? Just because I've signed several directors and actors doesn't mean others can't make films and TV series. You're making Mengyao laugh at you for saying that."

In this regard, Mengyao is definitely more knowledgeable than you. Dingdian Films is a new company and can't afford top-tier stars. Currently, the company has signed second- or third-tier artists, with Yang Bing being the most prominent; the rest are newcomers.

Li Xiaofeng smiled and continued in a calm tone, "The film and television industry is not as easy as you think. The risks are quite high. If it's not done well, you can lose everything. Otherwise, Mengyao wouldn't have gone into real estate."

Qin Kai asked with some confusion, "Then why are you still doing it?"

"Isn't it because Huiya wants to do this? Since she wants to mess around, let her mess around. I gave her several hundred million. If she makes money, she can continue. If she loses all the money, she can go home and take care of the children!"

Le Mengyao smiled and said, "You're really generous. You're willing to spend hundreds of millions to please a woman!"

"Money is worthless. I can earn more when I run out. It's no big deal. Besides, didn't I sell you the land I had?" Li Xiaofeng's tone carried a hint of ambiguity.

Qin Kai kept steer the conversation toward Dingdian Film and Television, so Li Xiaofeng had to steer the conversation back toward male-female relationships in order to divert their attention.

Sure enough, Qin Kai's attention was diverted, and he pointed at Li Xiaofeng and laughed, "I knew you had feelings for Mengyao. See, you finally gave yourself away!"

A blush crept onto Le Mengyao's face as she playfully retorted, "What nonsense are you talking about? This was a fair trade. I paid for it; it wasn't given to me for free!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled helplessly and said, "I didn't mean anything by it, I was just using a metaphor to say that your companies are too powerful, and I have a weak foundation, so I can't compete with you and don't want to compete with you."

"If you want to start any businesses in the future, let me know in advance, and I'll avoid you!"

Qin Kai smiled meaningfully and said, "So, are you willing to sell your Dingdian Films?"

"What, you want to buy it? I won't ask you any more questions. Just give me a billion and I'll sell it to you!"

"So expensive, are you slaughtering a pig?!" Qin Kai exclaimed in surprise.

"It's not expensive at all. This year alone, Huiya has invested over 400 million yuan in film and television dramas!"
