With the assets from the Mu family, Er Zhu's net worth has now reached one thousand trillion!
Such a colossal fortune could easily place him at the top of the world's richest rankings, but Er Zhu had little interest in this matter.
"Master, this is an invitation to the World Rich List Convention."
One day, as Er Zhu was just waking up, Wu Feng rushed over respectfully, handing Er Zhu a black card.
World Rich List Convention?
Er Zhu murmured softly, looking at the large, gilded characters on the invitation.
The World Rich List Convention is an annual gathering of the top one hundred wealthiest individuals in the world, where they can expand their networks or engage in collaborations during the banquet.
Of course, most of these magnates weren't particularly interested in such a banquet. What truly captivated them was the announcement of the year's number one richest person!
If they could establish connections with the world's richest individual, their businesses would undoubtedly reach new heights!
"You go."
With that thought, Er Zhu glanced dismissively at Wu Feng and continued downstairs.
"No, the World Rich List Convention uses facial recognition, and I won't be able to get in."
Wu Feng shook his head repeatedly, beads of sweat forming on his forehead as he thought of those high-and-mighty global tycoons.
If it were a Chinese magnate, it might be manageable. But world-class figures? He didn't even dare to imagine!
"Alright, then I'll take Li Mei."
Seeing Wu Feng's flustered state and glancing at the invitation to the global convention, Er Zhu took a deep breath and grudgingly accepted it.
He didn't need to expand his network or collaborate with other wealthy individuals, but Li Mei certainly did!
Therefore, if he were to attend this event, he would bring Li Mei along; otherwise, there would be no point in going at all!
Er Zhu casually slipped the invitation into his pocket, contemplating this silently.
One month later, in the banquet hall of the Frany International Hotel in Bai Country.
The highly anticipated World Rich List Convention was held here. Wealthy magnates from around the globe, dressed in impeccable suits and exuding an air of supreme confidence, gathered in the grand banquet hall. The scene was incredibly spectacular!
"Er Zhu, what kind of banquet is this? It seems like there are rich individuals from every country!"
Li Mei, dressed in a white gown, widened her eyes, surveying the assembled magnates with shock and bewilderment.
Er Zhu had simply told her to accompany him to a banquet, but judging by the event's caliber and the attendees, it was far from ordinary!
"The World Rich List Convention."
Er Zhu nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the global elite with indifference as he calmly replied.
"What?"
Li Mei was utterly astonished. She stared at Er Zhu, her eyes wide as if she were frozen in place.
The World Rich List Convention?
That was an assembly only the world's top tycoons were qualified to attend, and she wasn't even considered a top Chinese magnate!
"It's just a banquet, no need to be so surprised. Relax a little."
Seeing Li Mei's stunned expression, Er Zhu affectionately stroked her head and gently pulled her into his embrace.
While the World Rich List Convention was a dream destination for magnates worldwide, he himself didn't place much importance on it.
"Mr. Wang, I heard your Wang Corporation possesses the largest medicinal herb factory globally. May I collaborate with you?"
"Mr. Wang, I own millions of acres of land in China. Could we work together?"
"Oh my goodness, he's that number one richest man in China, Wang Er Zhu!"
...
Just as Li Mei was about to find a seat, numerous global magnates suddenly recognized Er Zhu, instantly making him the center of attention.
"Of course. This is my fiancée, Li Mei. She owns the largest department store in China."
Facing the fawning attention of the business elites, Er Zhu smiled faintly, a thought striking him, and he gestured towards Li Mei beside him.
"I have the world's top fashion design team. I would love to collaborate with Miss Li!"
"I own several department stores in China and hope to partner with Miss Li!"
"I am the head of the Moka family. It is an honor to meet Miss Li Mei."
...
Hearing Er Zhu's words, the magnates understood his intentions and immediately extended olive branches to Li Mei.
Li Mei was overjoyed. She introduced her department store to the various magnates and discussed potential collaborations with them.
Er Zhu watched Li Mei, who was now like the center of a galaxy, with a smile. This was exactly the scene he wished to see.
At this moment, as Er Zhu and Li Mei were being courted by the assembled elites, an old man with blond hair and blue eyes from not too far away glared fiercely at them, his fists clenching with audible cracks.
The elder had white hair and a face etched with wrinkles, but his eyes were sharp like a falcon's, seeming to see through everything!
This person was none other than Mr. Hamill, the current world's richest man.
Hamill's assets spanned the globe, his net worth reaching an astounding eight hundred trillion!
Yet, only a few sparse magnates surrounded him. All the others were flocking around a young, inexperienced man!
And that man was Chinese!
The more Hamill watched, the angrier he became. A flicker of killing intent flashed in his enraged gaze.
"Let's go. We'll go take a look too!"
Hamill waved his hand grandly and, leaning on his cane, walked towards Er Zhu.
The other magnates were still surrounding Li Mei and Er Zhu when they suddenly felt a chilling breeze. Turning their heads, they saw Hamill approaching.
Their faces instantly fell. They hastily bid farewell to Li Mei and quickly departed.
Hamill, the current richest man in the world, was someone none of them could afford to offend!
"Young man, China is a weak nation among all countries. So if you wish to live, you must be discreet!"
Hamill glanced contemptuously at the other magnates who were gradually dispersing, and with a smug air, patted Er Zhu's shoulder as he spoke.
While his words sounded like concern and a reminder, upon closer listening, one could discern his underlying meaning.
He was telling Er Zhu that if he wanted to stay alive, he should keep his mouth shut!
The magnates who had not yet left heard this and felt a chill run down their spines. The world's richest man was truly extraordinary!
"Sir, we don't seem to have bothered you. Why are you threatening Er Zhu!"
Hamill's arrogance and haughtiness pushed Li Mei to her limit. Frowning, she questioned him angrily.
"Furthermore, China has never been weak. We are merely more low-key, unlike Bai Country, which is like a warmonger, constantly instigating wars among others!"
Just as Hamill was about to say more, Li Mei, filled with righteous indignation, retorted.
Hearing this, the surrounding magnates looked at Li Mei with sympathy. Although Wang Er Zhu was powerful, he was still far from being in the same league as Hamill!
Wang Er Zhu was truly in trouble this time!
With this thought, they involuntarily turned to look at Er Zhu, but he remained as calm as ever.
