In a villa complex in Jianghai City.
A middle-aged man began, "Mr. Sato, our people haven't found any useful information online; it seems all information about Qin Hao has been erased."
Sato Tarou frowned, "Erased?"
The middle-aged man replied, "Yes, young master. You may not be aware, but Xuan Country now uses the Star Domain Network, and Qin Hao has absolute authority over it. He can erase anything from the Star Domain Network at will."
Sato Tarou had so understanding of the Star Domain Network, but only from when it was first launched, "Did we find any useful information?"
The middle-aged man said, "We found out about Qin Hao's parents, but they're heavily guarded by experts from the Flying Leopard Guard Battalion. Qin Hao's residence is under tight surveillance as well. It would be very difficult to carry out an assassination in Xuan Country."
Because they couldn't obtain firearms in Xuan Country at all, which severely limited the assassins' effectiveness. Plus, with the strength of the Flying Leopard Guard Battalion, successfully carrying out an assassination was extrely difficult.
Sato Tarou's eyes showed a twinge of unwillingness, and the middle-aged man continued, "Young master, there's news from the family. They want you to form a partnership with Xinghai High-tech Company."
Sato Tarou was taken aback, "Form a partnership with them? Are you sure that's right?"
The middle-aged man clarified, "This is a ssage from the Family Head. The advanced technologies of Xinghai High-tech Company are influencing the future shifts in the global financial oligarchy. The Family Head insisted that you must co to terms with Qin Hao, by any ans necessary."
...
Around noon, Qin Hao received a call from Zhao Yuying. The first day's overseas box office results were in, and "chanical Soldier" ranked second with a box office of 88.72 million Federation currency, closely trailing the first place, "Captain of the Northern Federation 4," by just a million Federation currency.
"chanical Soldier" had a combined dostic and international box office of over 1.2 billion, and that was just the beginning; it hadn't ended yet.
Considering the investnts and advertising costs for the film didn't even reach ten million, Yuhao dia Company made a huge profit.
In the afternoon, Qin Hao got a call from Xu Jiejian, "What are you busy with, Xiao Hao?"
Qin Hao replied, "Mr. Xu, I'm just sitting at ho, nothing much."
Xu Jiejian spoke up, "Since you're not busy, why don't you co to a banquet tonight? Sato Tarou from the Fu Feng Group will attend too, and I hear there's been so misunderstanding between you two. This is a good opportunity to clear it up."
Qin Hao said, "Mr. Xu, I can handle my own affairs."
Xu Jiejian insisted, "Xiao Hao, this isn't just about you anymore. You should know, the Fu Feng Group recently developed a new type of solar panel with an energy efficiency five tis that of existing ones. Our country has a huge population and massive energy consumption; this is a matter of national well-being."
Qin Hao understood Xu Jiejian's point, "I got it, Mr. Xu. I'll be there tonight. Where is it?"
"Innsil Hotel, Room 2606, at seven in the evening."
After hanging up, Qin Hao sat in thought, while Han ng didn't disturb him, standing behind him gently massaging his shoulders.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Han ng walked over to open the door, where Miao Jing and Miao Jianyun, father and daughter, were standing outside.
"Is Qin Hao at ho?" Miao Jing inquired.
Miao Jianyun nudged his daughter with a hint of urgency and said with a smile, "Is Mr. Qin at ho?"
Han ng nodded, "Please co in."
Sitting on the couch, Qin Hao was montarily startled to see Miao Jianyun and Miao Jing. He got up to greet them, "Mr. Miao, Officer Miao, please have a seat."
Once seated, Miao Jianyun smiled and said, "Long ti no see, Mr. Qin. Are Qin Hao and his sister not here?"
Qin Hao shook his head, "My parents are in Jiangshan."
It was clear that Miao Jianyun's visit had a purpose, and now that he ntioned my parents, it was obvious he wanted to rember our families' friendship.
Smiling, Miao Jianyun said, "I hope Mr. Qin and his sister are in good health?"
Qin Hao, "It's fine, Mr. Miao, are you here to see or my parents? If there's sothing to say, just say it directly."
Miao Jianyuan's face showed a bit of embarrassnt, "Mr. Qin, do you know that people from Fu Feng Group are here?"
Qin Hao nodded slightly, "I know."
Miao Jianyun's face bore a flattering smile, "Mr. Qin, I am here to ask if I could borrow so money from you. My company is having so cash flow issues, but once the finances are sorted out, I'll definitely repay you."
"Borrow money?" Qin Hao was stunned for a mont, he knew Miao Jianyun must want sothing from him, but he had not expected it to be a loan.
Miao Jing couldn't stand it any longer, this was the first ti she saw her father so obsequious and acting so servile.
She felt a naless anger burning inside her, especially when she saw Qin Hao's reaction to the loan request, "You're so rich, what's wrong with lending my family so money? It's not like we won't pay you back."
Miao Jianyuan glared, "Xiao Jing, how dare you speak to Mr. Qin in such a manner? Apologize to Mr. Qin right now."
As Miao Jing saw her father's angry look, she turned to Qin Hao and noticed he was smiling at her, which irked her greatly, but she dared not lash out, "Sorry…"
Qin Hao's lips curled into a slight smile, "No worries, how could I hold a grudge against a woman."
What do you an by that? Are you looking down on won?
Miao Jianyuan hastily said, "Thank you, Mr. Qin, for your magnanimity. Xiao Jing has been willful since she was little, all because her mother spoiled her. I'll certainly make sure to discipline her properly when we get ho."
Qin Hao chuckled, "Mr. Miao, how much are you planning to borrow?"
Miao Jianyun hesitated before saying, "Three billion."
Qin Hao, "That's no small sum, Mr. Miao, let think about it."
Miao Jing inwardly snorted, your net worth exceeds a trillion, three billion is nothing to you!
"Alright, Mr. Qin, then I won't bother you anymore, Xiao Jing and I will take our leave," said Miao Jianyun, forcing a smile as he got up and left with Miao Jing.
Shortly after they left, Miao Jing returned, but this ti she ca back alone.
Qin Hao saw her return and guessed what she was planning to do, "Officer Miao, just speak your mind."
Miao Jing sat there and said bluntly, "What would it take for you to lend the money to my father?"
Qin Hao, "Officer Miao, why should I lend money? My money wasn't swept in by a gust of wind; I earned it through hard work. Please watch your tone, do you think you can act all high and mighty when asking to borrow money?"
Miao Jing explained, "That's not what I ant, and it's not directed at you, Mr. Qin. Please don't misunderstand . I just want to help my father, please, Mr. Qin, my family will surely repay you."
Qin Hao looked at her and asked, "And what if your family can't repay?"
Miao Jing, "I can write you an IOU."
"Officer Miao, do you think I'm a child? An IOU," Qin Hao couldn't help but laugh.
Miao Jing, "Then what do you suggest?"
Qin Hao picked up a water cup and took a sip, "That should be your concern."
After hesitating, a determined look flashed in Miao Jing's eyes, "If my family can't repay your money, I'll give myself to you."
"Ptui!"
Qin Hao spat out all the water he had just drunk, and began coughing violently.
