Without any further delays, Charlie invited all of his guests into his villa. The servants of the prestigious guests brought down the gifts from their cars, and there were at least twenty to thirty of them carrying myriads of high-end gifts as they entered into the villa one after another. Lady Wilson, who stayed at A04, was stunned to see such a scene. She then murmured to herself, “This is unlike any typical kind of gift-giving session I have seen. This is more like a tribute paid to an emperor in ancient times!” Hannah felt extremely sorrowful as she opened her mouth and said, “All these are filthy-rich men. At the very least, they are wealthy men. The total value of these gifts would be worth almost a billion.” Wendy muttered with her teary eyes, “It should be worth at least a billion. The villa given by Gerald alone had cost more than a billion….” “Oh my…” Lady Wilson had a disgruntled expression on her face as she said, “I can’t watch this anymore. Otherwise, I wil

A myriad of gifts had been received and accumulated like a small mountain in the living hall, along with the arrival of the many dignified VIPs. She felt extremely excited and couldn’t wait to unwrap each of these presents one by one. Nonetheless, given the situation with many VIPs around, she had to keep herself calm and composed. Albert was Charlie’s most faithful follower. Unsurprisingly, he was also the one who initiated this surprise visit. He took out a piece of paper from his pocket and read aloud, “Master Wade, here’s the list of gifts given by everyone as a token of appreciation. Allow me to read them out.” Before Charlie had even spoken, Elaine, who was beside him, had already exclaimed in excitement, “Hurry up! Read them out loudly!” Albert replied hurriedly, “Sure, Madam. I’ll read them out loudly!” He then cleared his throat and said loudly, “Isaac Cameron from Shangri-la has given Master Wade a hot spring villa located at Shangri-la Hotel with a value of ei

After getting confirmation from Charlie, Albert then continued, “Lord Moore has gifted a San Lorenzo luxurious yacht made in Italy!” “A yacht?!” Elaine was the first one to blurt out the question, “What is the purpose of the yacht? Is it a yacht to visit tourist places?” Lord Moore laughed as he answered, “Let me clear any misunderstandings, Madam. San Lorenzo is an old European luxury yacht manufacturer. The length of the yacht is more than 20 meters long and has three decks. It is very suitable for family trips.” Elaine was startled and said, “I suppose a yacht like this is worth a lot, right?” Reuben, who was nearby, blurted out, “It costs around seventy million with tax.” “How much again?!”Elaine was dumbfounded. “A yacht which costs seventy million?! This is crazy!” Claire couldn’t help but cut in, “Lord Moore, I’m afraid we can’t accept such a lavish gift from you….” Charlie smiled gently and made a hand gesture to interrupt Claire and said, “Darlin

When Jacob heard the last gift, he rose from his seat immediately and asked in a trembling voice, “Antique blue and white elephant ears porcelain vase with dragon patterns?!” Albert nodded. “Correct, Mr. Wilson. It is indeed a pair of antique blue and white elephant ears porcelain vases with dragon patterns.” “My goodness!” Jacob was an antique lover. Although he was swindled rather often, he had a good understanding of the antique industry. Blue and white porcelain from the Yuan dynasty was one of the most expensive porcelain antiques. In fact, a blue and white porcelain plate from the Yuan dynasty could easily be sold up to millions. For bigger items from the Yuan dynasty, such as the blue and white porcelain pot, it had already cost over a billion during an auction more than ten years ago. If it were to be sold again in this era, it would be worth at least five billion. Jacob had obviously heard of antique blue and white elephant ears porcelain vases wi

Elaine had two sets of standards for measuring the value of items.The first set was how much money this item could be exchanged for.The second set was how much face she could gain through this item.In her eyes, everything in this world, all-inclusive, ultimately came down to money and face in the final analysis.For instance, when Charlie gave her the set of top-notch caviar skincare products, which was bought at a purchase price of nearly four hundred thousand dollars, she knew that it could be resold for at least three hundred thousand dollars. So, Elaine could clearly feel the weight and value of the three hundred thousand dollars. This was in line with her first set of standards because it was valuable!Another example was the Hermes bag that was worth a few hundred thousand dollars. Elaine would not only be able to resell the bag for one hundred thousand dollars, but she could envy and hatred of others. Elaine could feel the weight and value of the bag that was worth a few

Lord Moore gave him a yacht earlier, and Travis gave him a helicopter now.Claire was already at a loss for words purely due to shock. After receiving so many gifts, Claire could not help but feel a little afraid.She was afraid because these gifts were simply too expensive!These gifts were so expensive, and these high-class people from the upper-class society would never give other people such precious and valuable gifts.So far, the prices of all the gifts mentioned cost at least tens of millions of dollars or even more. Any single one of these gifts were all valuable treasures. Therefore, the fact that these people were giving Charlie all of these gifts made Claire suspicious. It was simply too magical and unbelievable.At this time, Travis said, “Master Wade, I heard that you do not leave Aurous Hill often. Lancaster is not too far away from Aurous Hill. It might take you four to five hours to drive there, but if you take a helicopter, you will be able to get there in about t

When everyone heard that Albert had given Charlie a villa in Tokyo, they were all rather surprised. They could not understand why Albert would give Charlie a villa all the way in Japan.However, after a moment of surprise, Isaac and Liam suddenly came to a realization! At the same time, they could not help but sigh in their hearts as they wondered why they did not think about this at all! When they were back in Japan, they had been by Charlie’s side, busy assembling the production lines of Kobayashi Pharma. After everyone arrived in Osaka, Charlie suddenly wanted to head to Kyoto alone.At that moment, Albert instantly guessed that Charlie was going to look for Nanako.Albert was a very smart man, and since he had already served Charlie for such a long time, he naturally knew some things about Charlie.He had long known that Charlie seemed to have felt some sort of appreciation for the Japanese combat and fighting athlete named Nanako. After that, the female athlete returned to J

Jonathan hurriedly replied, “Madam Elaine, that yacht has a maximum range of two thousand nautical miles, which is nearly four thousand kilometers. So, it will certainly be enough for you to travel from Aurous Hill to the estuary before heading all the way to Tokyo. However, since this will involve entry and exit from the country, you will have to report this matter to the immigration and customs in advance.”Elaine immediately said to Charlie excitedly, “My good son-in-law, why don’t we take some time to sail our yacht all the way to Japan for a vacation on our own? What do you think?”Charlie replied vaguely, “Well… we will talk about this when we have time.”Elaine hurriedly said, “Isn’t it easy to make time? Your dad and I do not go to work, and you do not report for work too. Claire is the only person who is running her own company. Since she is the boss of the company, wouldn’t she be able to take some days off from work to go for a holiday whenever she wants to?”Claire hurr

Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should

Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e

Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,

Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl

Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i

Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove

Charlie smiled. "Who, me? You'd laugh at me, but it was only after Steven found me that I learned to drive. I never bought my own car either and only had the two supercars gifted to me, and I only drove those a handful of times at best. Even now, I'm driving the BMW 5-series I bought for my father-in-law."Then, he remembered Marianne Long and said, "I did drive a friend's Tesla back to Hong Kong, but it was only for a short time, and I didn't manage to look into their so-called assisted driving system."Yolden thought about it and smiled, "But y'know… how would I describe the car, specifically? Have you heard of Mario Balotelli, the soccer player?"Every man present aside from Keith nodded—Mario had been a philosopher on the soccer field, and even those who didn't watch soccer were familiar with his name.Nodding, Yolden continued, "The way I see it, Mario has been a player with top-class hardware but third-rate software. Give him Messi or Ronaldinho's intelligence, and he'd be a

Kaeden then asked, "Well, professor, how do you suppose we overtake the competition at turning points? Or indeed, what qualifies as succeeding in that respect?"Yolden thought about it, formulating his words before explaining, "My personal understanding of the matter isn't simply to aim for turning points. Instead, it's things like staying on the inner lane of the race track and reaching the finish line faster by going where no other race car had gone before—or indeed where people never thought to go before."That's the case for new energy cars. Our fossil fuel energies have constantly lost to other countries and would always come up short. But with new energy cars, we can change the rules altogether."We can't catch up to their engine tech? Then we won't—there's no way they are masters in electric-powered engines, are they? They've spent decades on internal combustion engines and haven't the first clue about electric-powered engines."So, while everyone hasn't turned all their foc

The Ackers were really interested in Yolden's perspective.For their family, investing in the new energy automotive industry wasn't meant to make money—they simply intended to add to Oskia's strength as a manufacturer.But with Yolden's input, they had new things to look forward to.If they really could propel their business to giants like Tesla, opportunities and profits would go without saying—there was also no question that it supported and improved Oskia's local car industry and manufacturing sector.Giants in the manufacturing sector were different from online giants, as the latter often enforced a stranglehold monopoly. Before they had the monopoly, they would be offering perks and subsidies to the market, and when they gained sufficient customers and consumer faith, they would start choking the market for profits.To put it in perspective, a five-mile Uber ride would cost five bucks before, and the driver would be paid ten for it. But after Uber got the monopoly, the rider
