Chapter 260: Wang Zhongwei’s Invitation
In this match, although Jiang Siming’s harvest was not as much as the 33 kills in the previous match, he still obtained quite a few good fragments. He was only one fragment short of [Advanced Swimming], four fragments short of [Advanced Basketball], and two fragments short of [Photography Proficiency].
Shares of Huayi and Lamborghini were both completed, and even the white fragments for [Bandit Intuition] were successfully collected. In the next match, even without using the [Game Program Modifier], Jiang Siming could fly solo to find people. He originally wanted to summon the new Lambo R defended by Hanamichi Sakuragi, but since he drove to the venue, he didn’t want to leave his beloved car outside, so Jiang Siming had to drive the old car home first.
When he arrived at the garage, Jiang Siming summoned the Lamborghini. The streamlined body and ultra-low chassis, with a large number 10 basketball jersey engraved on the hood, and the English letters [SHOHOKU] on it. These letters, only old fans of "Slam Dunk" would know, meant Shohoku High School! The entire car was in the red motif of Hanamichi Sakuragi, completely different from the red of the BMW X6 he gave to Jiang Lan. This was a basketball red, not girly at all, but rather manly. Opening the butterfly doors, Jiang Siming sat inside. The interior was decorated in a low-key luxury style, and there was a row of "Slam Dunk" character figurines on the dashboard.
Figurines of Hanamichi, Rukawa Kaede, Mitsui Hisashi, Akagi Hanako, and others, each of which looked to be quite expensive. Jiang Siming searched for the model of this car on his phone; it was a limited edition produced by Lamborghini in 2018 after purchasing the copyright from the creator of "Slam Dunk." Although not extremely expensive, it cost more than 7 million, and it was an out-of-production model.
Currently, the value of this car had long surpassed the market price, doubling it, and there were still many buyers. Jiang Siming was also very satisfied with the car, and even went out for a drive to indulge himself before parking it back in the garage. Jiang Siming found that the family garage was almost out of space; this spacious garage that could accommodate seven cars was nearly filled with Jiang Siming’s cars. Audi RS7, Aston Martin DB11, BaoBoTe G800, a pink Lexus, and a cherry blossom series Lamborghini.
That’s already five cars, the Lexus was given by Jiang Siming to Xin Yi, and the Audi RS7 to Yin Zhirou, for her to drive to and from work. But if more cars were to come, it would truly be difficult to find space.
"Sigh, having too many cars can also be a trouble. If there are more cars, they’ll just have to be parked in the garages of nearby malls," Jiang Siming showed a happy yet troubled expression.
Because Lin Yun’er was returning to her country the next day, Yin Zhirou decisively chose to sleep in a separate bed, leaving Lin Yun’er to Jiang Siming while she herself went to sleep soundly. That night, Lin Yun’er was also very proactive in her advances, but unfortunately, she was easily ’conquered’ by Jiang Siming. In the morning, he sent off Lin Yun’er, who had teary eyes, to the plane, which was the result of much consolation from Jiang Siming; before that, she was a crying mess.
With Lin Yun’er gone, Jiang Siming’s mood couldn’t help but sink a bit. It was just him alone at home again, Xin Yi and Zhirou had to go to school from Monday to Friday. On his way back home in the car, Jiang Siming was considering whether to go home or to go for a drive. Since no one was at home, going back to such a large house by himself wasn’t much fun.
"Master, there’s an unknown call~" Xiao Xian’s voice came through.Jiang Siming showed no expression and said, "Answer it through the car’s Bluetooth."
"Okay, Master~ beep~"
"Hello." The other party had a deep male voice.
"Who is this?" Jiang Siming had never heard this voice before and initially thought it was a sales call.
"Hello, President Jiang, I am Wang Zhonglei, the CEO of Huayi." The other party introduced himself. Jiang Siming was slightly surprised, not expecting Wang Zhonglei to call him.
"It’s President Wang, is there something you need?"
"President Jiang is joking, you are now the largest shareholder of Huayi and my boss. I called to invite you for a meal. I specially flew from Beijing today. When will you be free? It’s fine even if it’s a couple of days later."
"Let’s do it now; I’m just about hungry."
"President Jiang is really straightforward. Tell me your location, and I’ll come pick you up?"
"No need. I’m driving myself. Just give me the address, and I’ll come over."
"Alright, let’s meet at the restaurant on Zhongshan East Road 1."
"Okay, I’ll be there in half an hour." After Jiang Siming finished speaking, Xiao Xian hung up the call very cooperatively without him having to say anything.
"How do you understand me so well, little beauty?" Jiang Siming said with a smile to Xiao Xian, who was sitting on the dashboard of his car playing with a Sakuragi Haruko figurine.
"Master is Xiao Xian’s master, so Xiao Xian must understand the master well." XiaoXian giggled.
"Why does that sound so twisted? Open the map and navigate to Zhongshan East Road 1. Check how long it will take to drive there."
"Alright, Master. At your current driving speed, it will take about an hour." Xiao Xian replied.
"An hour? That won’t do. I don’t like being late; I need to speed up." Jiang Siming said, gradually pressing the accelerator.
The Sakura Haruko series Lamborghini began speeding on the Shanghai highway. The cool car body attracted frequent attention from surrounding drivers and pedestrians, and everyone said the car was so cool! With racing skills, Jiang Siming arrived at the agreed location in less than half an hour. Parking the car, Jiang Siming walked into the restaurant with large, quick steps.
"Hello, sir, are you here for dining or do you have a reservation?"
Experience exclusive tales on
"Someone has reserved a table, the surname is Wang," Jiang Siming said.
"It’s Mr. Wang, right? The reservation is at the RUC room, please follow me." The polite waiter led Jiang Siming up to the second floor.
Jiang Siming looked around the Western restaurant, everything seemed expensive, and it was no wonder the boss of Huayi was from the upper class, choosing such an upscale place for dining. The waiter came to the private room and considerately pushed the door open for Jiang Siming.
Jiang Siming walked in, and Wang Zhonglei, who was resting in the chair, immediately stood up, walked to Jiang Siming with a smile, and extended his hand, saying: "I have long heard of your fame, President Jiang. They say you are young and accomplished, dignified in appearance, and even won a world championship in a game. Now I see that it’s all true."
Wang Zhonglei showed a fawning attitude right from the start. In fact, he had no choice but to flatter, for if he did not win Jiang Siming over, and if the latter caused trouble in the company, he would really have no way to deal with it. Although Wang Zhonglei felt that since the other party had spent so much money to acquire Huayi’s shares, they were unlikely to cause trouble. However, nothing was certain, and if it were an older businessman, he would be more confident. But Jiang Siming was so young, and such young people often acted out of impulse and a desire to show off, which could lead to some absurd actions.
Therefore, Wang Zhonglei specially rushed over from Beijing this time, partly to get to know Jiang Siming’s character and personality in advance, and to interact with him.
"Mr. Wang, you are too kind. My insignificant abilities can’t compare to your rich life experiences. You founded Huayi, making it the top entertainment company in China, while I am just a minor streamer, perhaps not even able to step into your company’s threshold," Jiang Siming spoke in a flawless manner.
Wang Zhonglei laughed heartily and did not continue the small talk, instead inviting Jiang Siming to take a seat.
