UGB Chapter 87 Target
Chapter 87 Target
While Liu Nini and Hu Wen were attending the auction, Lu Ran was at Cheng Ning's invitation to watch a movie with her.
Lu Ran managed to get back at Wang Jiachao by doing a little dirty trick.
As for what happens next...
Wang Jiachao's family owns Jiashu Electronics, a long-established company with considerable market influence.
Liu Yan's family owns Weiyu Electric Appliances, which is also a powerful company.
Lin Shaoxian, needless to say, comes from a family that runs a pharmaceutical company, and he himself is also very capable.
Wang Dongnian makes a lot of money every year in Tianhai just by buying and selling luxury cars. People who do this kind of luxury car business usually have a wide network of connections.
Any one of these people, if brought together, would be someone Lu Ran couldn't handle.
Even if he could rake in a billion yuan in cash through the system, he still couldn't compare to these family businesses. It's not always about who has more money.
Bringing down a media intermediary company has absolutely no impact on society; at most, it just provides entertainment for people.
But with electrical appliances, electronics, and medicine, even if you have the means to deal with others, you wouldn't dare to use them easily. That's the difference.
Therefore, if he wants to have the ability to protect his assets, he has to start with these practical industries.
Therefore, let's focus on development first, and then consider other things.
"What are you thinking about?"
Cheng Ning noticed that Lu Ran had been absent-minded ever since they came out of the movie.
She wondered if she had done something wrong that made Lu Ran impatient with her, so she asked a question out of fear.
Putting aside these complicated thoughts, Lu Ran smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been thinking about other things while I was out with you."
"It's okay, as long as you're with me, that's enough."
Hearing that Lu Ran wasn't annoyed with her, Cheng Ning breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again.
"Cheng Ning".
"Um?"
"If you had an endless supply of money, how would you live your life?"
"Eating, drinking, and having fun; indulging in extreme luxury and flaunting wealth worldwide; beautiful women, fine wine, and a life of extravagance—these are probably things that ordinary people dream of!"
Cheng Ning pursed her lips: "Beauty..."
She understood that Lu Ran was referring to himself, because Lu Ran was very rich now.
Upon hearing the words "beautiful women, fine wine, and decadent pleasures," Cheng Ning's heart tightened.
Yes, once a person has a certain amount of wealth, they will naturally not lack beautiful women around them. She might one day face the situation she least wants to see, even if she trusts Lu Ran.
Cheng Ning knew her own heart very well; she couldn't live without Lu Ran, and no difficulty could change her desire to spend her life with him.
But if...
If Lu Ran has another girl by his side, she might be sad or jealous, but she won't hate or blame Lu Ran.
If that day ever comes, she might secretly find a place to hide and live out her life carrying the beautiful memories she shared with Lu Ran.
She didn't want to leave Lu Ran, but she was even more afraid of sharing him with someone else. Rather than that, she decided to leave voluntarily; that was her bottom line.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't get the wrong idea. I'm just using an analogy. I only want you, no matter if I'm poor or rich, I only want you."
"I'm afraid that if I become poor, you'll kick me aside."
This sounds almost like a confession.
Cheng Ning didn't dare to look Lu Ran in the eyes.
"Won't."
"real?"
"real."
Lu Ran finally managed to smooth things over and breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he continued, "You still haven't told me your answer. If you had money, and a lot of money, more than you could ever spend, what would you do?"
Seeing how serious Lu Ran was.
Cheng Ning also began to think about it seriously.
She recalled her experiences, the many hardships and heartaches she encountered during the more than ten years she was blind.
Soon, Cheng Ning had her answer.
"If I really had that much money."
"Then I will invest in medical technology, use a lot of money to support medical development, and research technologies that can restore sight to the blind, restore sight to the deaf and mute, and restore the health of all disabled people."
"Well, doing too much at once might be too difficult, so let's start with techniques to restore sight."
Lu Ran was stunned.
He never expected that Cheng Ning, a seemingly delicate girl, could utter such powerful words.
【Ding! 】
[It seems you've been influenced by Cheng Ning, developing different ideas and a new understanding of wealth and its use—that's excellent!]
[Gained 1000 treasure chest experience points.]
Lu Ran was indeed inspired by Cheng Ning, and the direction in his mind became clearer.
When you zoom in on videos of female internet celebrities who flirt with the wrong image, do you ever remember that your childhood dream was to become a scientist?
Scientists can't do it, but Lu Ran can hire research and technical personnel.
Indeed, one's perception of wealth depends on one's goals.
If Musk knew that Lu Ran's system had earned over 200 million in just a few months, he would definitely complain and say, "What a piece of junk!"
"Am I being too naive?"
Seeing Lu Ran remain silent.
Cheng Ning asked shyly.
These ideas are indeed too naive. Enjoying life to the fullest is the mindset of a normal person, and changing the world is a thought that only a madman would have.
"No, not naive."
"I believe that one day, your wish will come true."
Cheng Ning smiled, taking it as Lu Ran trying to make her happy, but she was indeed happy.
The two strolled around the street for a while, and as they were about to head back, Cheng Ning's phone rang.
It was Cheng Ning's mother calling.
Cheng Ning answered the phone: "Mom."
"Ah, I... I forgot."
"Okay, I'll go there the day after tomorrow. Hmm, I'm recovering very well."
"Oh, goodbye, Mom."
Lu Ran asked, "What's wrong?"
Cheng Ning pursed her lips: "The day after tomorrow is my maternal grandfather's birthday. My uncle is currently working at a construction site in Chengjiang, so we're planning to bring my grandfather to Chengjiang so the whole family can have a meal together."
"My mom informed me in advance. If it weren't for my mom, I wouldn't have known that my grandfather's birthday was the day after tomorrow."
Cheng Ning stuck out her tongue, making a rather cute expression.
"Should I go pick up Auntie?"
"No need, Mom didn't want to trouble you, so she already arranged a car in advance."
Lu Ran didn't insist.
"Okay, let me know if you need anything."
"Well, a lot of people will be coming this time, mostly my mother's relatives, so my mother said that since we haven't... well, you shouldn't go yet."
Cheng Ning's mother said she wasn't married, but Cheng Ning was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
"It's alright, there will be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future, I'm not in a hurry."
Cheng Ning carefully observed Lu Ran's expression, seemingly afraid that Lu Ran might be dissatisfied.
Lu Ran chuckled and ruffled her hair.
"Okay, so in your heart, I'm such a petty person?"
"Besides, I'm not your shadow; I can't follow you everywhere you go!"
"Following suit is fine too."
"Hey? Aren't you indirectly calling me a tagalong!"
No, no.
"What do you mean, 'no'? That's exactly what you meant."
Cheng Ning tucked her neck into her thick scarf: "I'm sorry!"
