The car drove all the way to the center of Xijing City and finally stopped under the tallest building.
Lin Zhiming got off the car and looked up.
This high-rise building was actually much taller than any high-rise building Lin Zhiming had seen in Xiahai City.
"Does this building belong to you, Mr. Yoshino?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Yes. This is also my company." Yoshino said, walking into the building.
Lin Zhiming followed Yoshino Hideshi and looked around curiously.
This is the office building of an international financial giant, and the cost of the entire office building exceeds Lin Zhiming's net worth.
It is said that Hideshi Yoshino's net worth has reached more than 600 billion yuan, ranking among the top three in the entire Asia.
If Lin Zhiming wants to truly be on an equal footing with Yoshino Hideshi, he must at least become the head of the four major families. Even if he takes over the Lin family, he cannot compare with Yoshino Hideshi. Although the Lin family claims to have assets of more than 500 billion,
But that does not belong to the head of the family alone, and Yoshino Hideshi's assets are all his own.
In fact, Lin Zhiming's current net worth has reached 100 billion, because several Lin families have been conquered and controlled by him. However, this is not Lin Zhiming's net worth, his net worth is still the Lin Group and some of its subsidiaries.
Now that Lin Zhiming comes to Yoshino Hideshi's company, he still has some learning mentality in his heart. After all, he is one of the top three richest people in Asia, and he is probably not even in the top 100 in Asia.
Along the way, everyone who saw Yoshino bowed to Yoshino, and every one of them bowed at an exaggerated ninety degrees. This was true for both men and women.
Eiji Yoshino did not speak to his men. He walked into the elevator expressionlessly surrounded by bodyguards.
Lin Zhiming followed him throughout the whole process, just like a follower.
Riding the elevator all the way up, Lin Zhiming followed Yoshino to the top floor.
The top floor is Yoshino Hideshi's office, and the entire office is a large flat floor.
"Lin Sang, sit down." Yoshino Hideshi led Lin Zhiming to the sofa and said calmly.
Lin Zhiming sat down unceremoniously. After looking around, Lin Zhiming said, "Just this level, I'm afraid it will cost several hundred million, right?"
"For people at our level, money is just a bunch of numbers." Yoshino sat down opposite Lin Zhiming and said calmly.
"I'm still far from your level, Mr. Yoshino. Money is a very important thing to me." Lin Zhiming smiled.
"Does Lin Sang smoke? I have the best cigars in the world here." Yoshino asked.
"Give me one." Lin Zhiming said.
Yoshino Eiji glanced at the men beside him.
The subordinate nodded slightly, then turned and walked aside.
Not long after, his men came back with cigars.
Lin Zhiming and Yoshino Hideshi each took a cigar in their mouths and started smoking.
"I was on a business trip before, so I couldn't receive Lin Sang immediately. It was very rude. Please forgive Lin Sang." Hideshi Yoshino said.
"Mr. Yoshino is too polite. You are busy with your own affairs. This is just a small matter for me!" Lin Zhiming said.
"I have read some information about Lin Sang. Lin Sang is now the richest man in a city called Strait City in Dragon Kingdom. His assets are more than 10 billion yuan. He is also a super warrior. With such an identity, at your age,
", it is very rare. In the whole of Asia, there are very few people under the age of thirty who can have such achievements as you!!" Hideshi Yoshino said seriously.
"Everywhere, it's all good luck." Lin Zhiming replied with a smile, while being more vigilant in his heart. Through some of Yoshino Hideshi's actions in the past two days, Lin Zhiming already knew that this guy had evil intentions. Now that Yoshino Hideshi praised him so much, then
It must be a courtesy for nothing, a traitor or a thief.
"However, joining the Illuminati with such achievements is not enough." Hideshi Yoshino shook his head.
"Here we come!" Lin Zhiming's heart skipped a beat, but he still said with a smile on his face, "I also feel that I am still lacking, so I should learn more from big guys like you."
"You may not understand what I mean." Yoshino took out the cigar from his mouth, clamped it between the tips of his middle and index fingers, looked at Lin Zhiming expressionlessly and said, "I think you are not qualified to join the Illuminati.
.”
"Oh? Really?" The smile on Lin Zhiming's face gradually disappeared. It turned out that he kept smiling just because of politeness, but now that Yoshino Hideshi has said something ugly, there is no need for him to continue to be polite to the other party.
.
"Look at all the things around you." Yoshino Hideshi raised his hand and pointed around and said, "The value of this building exceeds your net worth, and I own such a building in the foot basin country, in the Asan country, and even
There is also one in Stars and Stripes. I have struggled for nearly fifty years to make my assets exceed 100 billion, and then I am qualified to become a member of the Asian branch of the Illuminati. And you... To be honest, there is too much difference. To be honest, I am still
I don’t understand why I always pass your review. Maybe some people think you have potential, but in my opinion, potential is not as good as ready-made financial resources.”
"I heard similar words to you in other places more than a week ago." Lin Zhiming said.
"Actually, you should also know that I have been in Xijing City, but I just don't want to see you." Yoshino Hideshi said.
"I know. But you can see her even if you don't want to, right?" Lin Zhiming said.
"Yes, from this point of view, you are much smarter than I thought. However, smartness does not necessarily mean you are useful in this world. There are many people under me who have higher IQs than me, but they can only
They are my men." Yoshino Hideshi said.
"I agree with you." Lin Zhiming nodded.
"The Illuminati is a place that gathers top people from all over the country. Whether it is an Asian branch or another continent, the people in each branch have reached the pinnacle of their respective fields. To say something unpleasant, with your current status, you are still
For those who are not qualified to become the Asian branch of the Illuminati, this is not because I look down on you, but I am giving you a piece of advice as someone who has experienced it. If you have to force yourself into a level that is beyond your reach, it will not be a good thing for you.
"There is a saying in the Dragon Kingdom that people eat as much rice as their bowls have. If you eat too much, you will easily choke yourself and stretch yourself to death," said Hideshi Yoshino.
"So, I can understand that you are not willing to let me join the Asian branch of the Illuminati. Is that what you mean?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"You have passed the review of the General Assembly. You can join the Illuminati Asia Branch. However, my personal advice to you is not to enter." Yoshino said.
"That is to say, you have no power to prevent me from joining the Asian branch of the Illuminati, right?" Lin Zhiming asked.
"Yes." Yoshino Hideshi nodded.
"Then what are you talking about?" Lin Zhiming laughed jokingly and said, "Whether I am qualified or not is my business. Whether I can join or not is a matter for the Illuminati Association. You are the one who handles the affairs in the middle.
What are you doing with so many dramas? Are you free?"
Hearing Lin Zhiming's words, Yoshino Hideshi's face froze.
He originally thought that Lin Zhiming would be frightened by what he said, but he didn't expect that Lin Zhiming would suddenly say such shameless words.
What is the difference between what you say and what the gangsters say on the street?
"Although I can't stop you from joining the Illuminati Asia Chapter, but... I can make you a transparent person in the Illuminati Asia Chapter. I will marginalize you and not let you participate in any activities of the Illuminati.
Become a laughing stock." Yoshino said.
"Do you really want to be my enemy?" Lin Zhiming stared at Yoshino Hideshi, with a cigar in his mouth, his mouth slightly open, and the cigar tilted slightly downward. He looked extremely casual, but full of mischief, which made him
Lin Zhiming looked like a street villain.
Seeing Lin Zhiming's eyes, for some reason, Yoshino Hideshi, who was used to seeing strong winds and waves, the hairs on his body suddenly stood up.
Lin Zhiming's eyes were extremely calm, but underneath this calmness seemed to contain endless violence.
Yoshino Hideshi had a feeling that he seemed to be being targeted by a male lion. Although the lion did not show any movement of its teeth and claws, the feeling was chilling.
Yoshino held the cigar in his mouth, as if he wanted to use this action to cover up the flash of panic on his face.
Afterwards, Hideshi Yoshino felt dissatisfied again, because he was a figure at the top of the footbaby country's pyramid, and it was unforgivable that he would panic when facing a junior like Lin Zhiming.
"Even if I become your enemy, what will happen?" Yoshino Hideshi asked.
"That doesn't seem to be the case." Lin Zhiming smiled, shrugged, and said, "Mr. President, you really scared me. I almost thought what you just said was true."
Hearing Lin Zhiming's words, Yoshino Hideshi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood what Lin Zhiming meant by what he said.
He...this is giving him a step down.
It seems that he already knew that he was timid, so he gave him a step up at this time.
After being silent for two or three seconds, Yoshino suddenly laughed.
"Hahaha, Lin Sang, you are really cunning. I just wanted to tease you, but you saw through it! You can't blame me, Lin Sang, you have caused me so much trouble, I have to tease you.
, find a balance!" Yoshino said with a smile.
"I almost got teased by you." Lin Zhiming stood up, walked to Yoshino Hideshi's side, and gently pressed his hand on Yoshino Hideshi's shoulder.
Several bodyguards of Eiji Yoshino gathered their strength and prepared to come forward almost at the same time, but Eiji Yoshino raised his hand slightly.
The bodyguards all stood there, looking at Lin Zhiming warily.
"However, Mr. Yoshino, I don't like joking very much. I have to think carefully before joking next time. If I take it seriously, it... won't be fun." Lin Zhiming said, took a puff of his cigar, and then
He took off the cigar and bent down to place it next to the ashtray on the table.
Yoshino Hideshi's throat moved slightly, as if he swallowed some saliva.
"At nine o'clock tomorrow morning, prepare the materials and I'll be here on time." Lin Zhiming said, walked forward, and disappeared in front of Yoshino Hideshi in the blink of an eye.
I don't know why, Yoshino Hideshi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
