After Black Lotus became a reborn person, he went completely crazy

Chapter 909 The World's No.1 Banking Group

They acquired three museums and a library in one go, with the library being a mere add-on.

After finishing her work, Xia Ran saw that it was still early before dawn, and the library happened to be nearby. Since she was already there, she decided to collect the items.

After finishing her work, she drove straight to the airport to catch the earliest flight to leave.

When we arrived in Kyoto, where I was staying, it was just past 4 a.m. local time.

Xia Ran lingered here for a few more days, scouting the place.

Finally, they set their sights on Golden Harvest Bank, which had just become the world's number one banking group.

This was formed last month through the merger of three major banks: Quanye, Fuji, and Kogyo.

Their business scope was very broad, and they already had the prototype and shadow of later banks.

One night, Xia Ran and Jiu Ge emptied the Federal Reserve's underground bank vault, taking all the existing gold, Japanese yen, and various foreign exchange reserves—US dollars, British pounds, etc.

She took everything she could, including all the documents and accounts from the place.

These Japanese yen, US dollars, British pounds, etc., are definitely not usable and can't be put to use; they have consecutive serial numbers on them.

So what? Even if you use it to start a fire, it's still better than leaving it in the other person's bank.

She is happy as long as her personal interests are harmed or she is unhappy.

After doing this bad thing, Xia Ran felt much better and more at ease, and rushed to the airport to go to Busan that very night.

By the time Xia Ran finally returned to China, it was already mid-October.

She then realized that she should have called Director Liu to let him know she was safe earlier.

When Director Liu received the call, he was so worried that he almost cried.

They thought to themselves that this girl was too carefree; she disappeared for more than half a month, almost making them worry to death.

Finally, Xia Ran sent these eight people, along with the research results and nine bodies, to Jinshi Port.

They were picked up by the people sent by Director Liu.

Those who came to pick up the people never expected that they would also bring back part of the hero's remains.

They thought they were bringing back an urn containing ashes, but who would have thought it would actually be a body?

Xia Ran felt completely relieved after submitting her work; she was finally able to finish.

I took this opportunity to meet with the people above me and mentioned the matter of helping to facilitate the sale of missiles to the Middle East.

After some deliberation, the authorities agreed, but of course, only ordinary warheads could be sold to others.

Xia Ran bought 28 warheads at a price of 120 million US dollars each.

This is not the upper limit of Xia Ran's strength, but the upper limit of her current marketable inventory.

Xia Ran stayed in China for a few days to make it easier to take the goods with her, since it's not easy to go back to China.

Of course, Xia Ran wasn't idle during the time she was waiting.

Through connections made by higher authorities, she signed long-term crude oil supply contracts with the heads of oil and petrochemical companies for 20 years.

She is willing to supply domestic crude oil at a price 10% lower than the market price, and there is as much as she wants.

As for the market price, just go with the flow.

No one is as reliable as collaborating with Xia Ran as collaborating with others.

Her actions are a timely help for the country, given the current challenging external environment.

Everywhere you look, there are these countries, led by the US and the US, painstakingly setting up encirclements, blockades, and suppressions.

This crude oil supply contract is a win-win situation for both parties.

Chen Jin gave birth to a son last month.

Unfortunately, time was too tight this time, and she didn't have enough time to go and visit.

I could only offer my condolences by phone, but thankfully Chen Jin and her child are both well.

Xia Ranren couldn't attend, but she sent gifts for the child and Chen Jin the day after she gave birth.

It is a property certificate for a two-courtyard siheyuan (traditional courtyard house) in Beijing.

The film based on Wang Lan's autobiography has been completed and is currently in post-production.

Chen Jin said she plans to officially release the film on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year next month.

I'm planning to use this to try my luck with some of the most prestigious international awards.

I forgot to mention that Xia Ran Company currently owns five entertainment companies, and has a whole host of subsidiaries.

She had already integrated and restructured the South Korean entertainment companies that she acquired in the first place.

Of these five companies, two are in mainland China, two are in South Korea, and one is in Hong Kong.

Springtime is finally here for the entertainment industry.

Xia Ran had previously controlled the recruitment of some people and weeded out others by remotely directing them over the phone.

We must avoid celebrities with bad reputations and people with poor character. As for their professional skills, our own company can cultivate them gradually.

Xia Ran knew all too well the career development and future prospects of those artists in later generations.

This is an incredible stroke of genius.

She could have used this to dominate the Asian entertainment industry.

Moreover, our company doesn't have a culture of drinking with clients or unspoken rules. Artists only need to hone their professional skills and stand out based on their abilities.

She's a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry, a kind of breath of fresh air that others dare not touch.

It also owns a modeling agency and its own grand theater and classical dance company.

Xia Ran focused the most attention on these aspects because she wanted to use them as a stepping stone to open up the international market.

In order to design and produce satisfactory performance costumes, they even set up a clothing company specifically to serve their own entertainment company.

She wants to bring China's oldest and most brilliant traditional culture to the international stage and screen ahead of schedule.

At Xia Ran's request, Li Huaimin also specially built several martial arts schools that combined primary, junior high, and senior high school education.

The school covers all living and study expenses. There is only one admission requirement: you must have excellent physical condition.

Moreover, they recruit students nationwide, without regional or geographical restrictions, as long as the applicant has excellent physical condition.

This is Xia Ran cultivating promising young players for the future national football team; good talents need to be nurtured from a young age.

It's called a martial arts school, but it actually teaches everything, like fighting skills, boxing, martial arts, and even soccer.

If they have acting talent, they can be trained to become martial arts stars.

It would be best if they could win glory for the country in the future. Even if they can't stand on the podium, with such skills, their future will certainly be good.

Xia Ran originally planned to go straight home, but now that's not possible. On her way back, she took a detour to the Middle East.

And so, a batch of big guns—missiles—were airdropped into several small countries in the Middle East.

Of course, they also paid a small amount of money for it.

Because it includes door-to-door delivery and after-sales service, and because the confidentiality measures were well implemented, it did not attract the attention of international media or other countries.

These countries are willing to pay $300 million per item to buy all of these things.

Xia Ran made a net profit of $50 billion with just one transaction; selling military equipment is indeed a fast way to make money.

The other party's representative also revealed their desired procurement list of basic weapons.

After all, missiles are for deterrence, not for actual combat.

Of course, the price offered by the other party was still very attractive. There was no reason to turn down such a good deal; we had to take it.

Xia Ran didn't even bother to respond. If the country weren't so poor and there were so many places that needed money, she wouldn't have been able to bring herself to do it.

Otherwise, she would have snatched the order and shipped the goods from her own space.

It's because she has so much inventory in her storage space that she can't possibly use it all.

This is a classic case of getting something for nothing.

Sigh, she could only think about it in her heart. Xia Ran turned around and called Director Liu, asking him to produce more.
