Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

In addition to Meng Chuan, Jiang Zhenyu, and Dean Zuo Silan, Alice and Natasha also joined the trip to London.

Of course, Yingdie also arrived in London in her own way, but she did not travel with Meng Chuan.

Meng Chuan was not surprised by this; Ying Die always had her own methods.

On the plane, Alice sat next to Meng Chuan, but her usual gentle smile was not on her face.

She wore a well-tailored black trench coat with a red scarf, looking both capable and elegant.

Why didn't you call me that night?

Alice suddenly spoke, her tone tinged with a hint of resentment.

Why should I call you?

Meng Chuan glanced at Alice and asked in return.

Meng Chuan never saw Alice again after that night.

Alice did not come to see Meng Chuan again.

Alice rolled her eyes at Meng Chuan and huffed without saying another word.

Meng Chuan was happy to have some peace and quiet, so he closed his eyes to rest.

After a flight of more than ten hours, the plane landed at London Heathrow Airport in the evening.

Alice's uncle sent a limousine to pick them up.

As the car entered central London, Meng Chuan looked out the window at this ancient yet modern city and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.

This is my first time going abroad, both in my past life and this one.

However, the moon abroad doesn't seem to be any brighter than the one at home.

Sitting in the car, you can occasionally see one or two drunkards wandering the streets.

The streets were relatively quiet, not as bustling as Meng Chuan had expected.

The car soon stopped in front of a classical-style building, where a butler in a tailcoat stood at the door.

He bowed slightly and opened the car door for the two of them.

"Welcome home, Miss Alice."

The butler said respectfully.

"Aren't we going to the hotel?"

Meng Chuan looked at Alice in surprise.

"Because this forum is being held at Warburg Manor."

Dean Zuo Silan explained.

That's why she agreed to come to Alice's place.

They were able to live in the manor thanks to Alice.

Led by Alice, Meng Chuan and the others entered the manor, and were somewhat shocked.

The interior of the manor is extremely luxurious, with expensive oil paintings hanging on the walls and thick carpets on the floor.

Every detail reflects the owner's status and position.

"You stay here for now, I'm going to see my people."

Alice led the group to a long corridor.

There are several doors on both sides of this corridor.

These are rooms specifically for entertaining guests.

There were also some security personnel patrolling outside the corridor.

"Alice, when can I see your uncle?"

Meng Chuan pulled Alice aside and asked in a low voice.

For Meng Chuan, the biggest purpose of this trip was not to attend the forum, but to meet Alice's uncle.

"My uncle isn't at the manor. You should be able to see him after the forum ends tomorrow."

Alice said this and turned to leave.

It was obvious that Alice still harbored some resentment towards Meng Chuan.

Helpless, Meng Chuan was about to turn around and choose a room when Alice suddenly turned back:

"By the way, to avoid unnecessary trouble, you should keep the ring on your body and not show it to others casually."

Alice said, glancing at the thumb ring on Meng Chuan's thumb.

"A thumb ring? What trouble could that cause?"

Meng Chuan asked suspiciously.

What's so special about this thumb ring? Surely the Warburg family, with its vast wealth, wouldn't be eyeing a thumb ring on his hand?

"You can't go wrong by listening to me."

With that, Alice turned and left.

Meng Chuan examined the ring in his hand, his suspicions growing stronger.

But after thinking about it, Meng Chuan took off the ring from his hand and put it in his pocket.

Meng Chuan and the others each chose a room to stay in.

The rooms here are almost all the same, decorated like those in an ancient palace.

Living there truly gives one a sense of being an aristocrat.

Meng Chuan lay in bed and took out his phone to send a text message to Ying Die.

I don't know if she arrived in London safely.

However, Meng Chuan replied to his text messages almost instantly.

"I've already arrived."

Just five words, yet Meng Chuan was shocked.

I really don't know how she got to London; she's incredibly resourceful.

At the very least, if Meng Chuan didn't have an ID card, he would be unable to move an inch.

Yingdie has no ID card, but she can travel freely both domestically and internationally.

Silent all night.

The next day, Meng Chuan got up early and put on the suit he had specially prepared.

After breakfast, Dean Zuo Silan gathered everyone together and briefly introduced the forum's agenda.

The forum is divided into a main forum and sub-forums, with the main forum to be held in the central hall of the manor.

The sub-forums are located in various meeting rooms throughout the manor.

The forum officially opened at 9:00 AM.

Inside the central hall, dignitaries, business leaders, and scholars from around the world gathered together.

"Meng Chuan, look, isn't that Ma Yun? Even one of our country's big shots has come."

Jiang Zhenyu was very excited and went to look around.

Not only Ma Yun, but Meng Chuan also saw several other familiar faces.

What impressed Meng Chuan the most was Elon Musk.

The founder of Tesla and the founder of the rocket company.

However, he wasn't that dazzling in the crowd at that moment.

Even in front of Ma Yun, he was still just a junior.

Most importantly, Elon Musk is not having an easy time either.

The rocket company's recovery technology is still immature, and it has suffered multiple launch failures, facing a bankruptcy crisis.

Tesla has also been facing years of losses and urgently needs financing.

Both of these are companies that devour money like water.

Only a madman like Elon Musk could have persisted until now.

Anyone else would have given up by now.

"If we can get the money from Alice's uncle later, we might consider investing in Elon Musk."

Meng Chuan muttered to himself.

Currently, both Tesla and Rocket Company have market capitalizations around 200 billion.

However, Tesla's market value at its peak could reach as high as $1.6 trillion.

The rocket company's market value has reached $3500 billion.

These two are definitely unicorn companies.

Now is the best time to invest.

However, this is contingent on Meng Chuan being able to obtain money from Alice's uncle.

Just as Meng Chuan was deep in thought, a man with a noble air walked onto the stage.

Alice, who was standing next to Meng Chuan, whispered to him:

That's my uncle.

Meng Chuan's gaze instantly focused on the man on the stage.

He was tall and had a stern face; his every move exuded an aura of authority.

His appearance instantly silenced the entire hall, and all eyes were on him.

"Welcome to Warburg Manor."

Alice's uncle started the entire event in English.

Meng Chuan's only impression of him was that he spoke good English.
