Chapter 23: Who Would You Choose?

Upon hearing the words of the two beauties, Huang Feiyang felt thoroughly bewildered. They both wanted to enter into a marriage alliance with him? And furthermore, they had already had their grandfathers call his own? This was...

"Who would you choose?" Chen Xiruo asked, staring straight into Huang Feiyang's eyes.

"That's right! Brother Feiyang, who would you pick?" Yang Yiyi added from the side, blinking her eyes.

In the eyes of both beauties, there shone a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

"Uh, this..." Huang Feiyang felt his scalp tingle at their question. How was he supposed to answer this?

"We are still young; it is far too early to talk about such things!" With great effort, Huang Feiyang managed to squeeze out this response.

"Hmph!" Both Chen Xiruo and Yang Yiyi rolled their eyes. They were not particularly satisfied with this answer. However, at the same time, they both felt a secret sense of relief. They had truly been terrified that Huang Feiyang might actually name the other person.

After chatting for a while and watching some television, the three went upstairs, each heading to their own room.

Sitting in front of his computer, Huang Feiyang began to busy himself once more. As the two billion in capital was steadily transferred offshore and arrived in increments, his plan continued to be refined. Following the major event in September, stock markets from the United States to countries around the world would experience a crash. Naturally, he would not miss such an opportunity to amass wealth. Huang Feiyang’s goal was very clear: to diversify his funds to short stock indices and accumulate wealth discreetly.

At the same time, he had already set his sights on the international crude oil futures market for October. As the war in Afghanistan broke out, international oil prices would see a sharp decline in the short term. For Huang Feiyang, this was another excellent opportunity.

By the time Huang Feiyang finished these tasks, it was already the dead of night. Finally, he reviewed the report sent over by George. Regarding FY Technology, the daily sales of their three mobile phone models had stabilized at over one hundred thousand units. The domestic market was still far from saturated. However, George had already set his sights on overseas markets. Huang Feiyang was, naturally, optimistic about this. Letting the X mobile phones go global was a good thing! Moreover, given the price and performance of the three models, he believed they could sweep the world.

At the very least, there would be no problem in frantically accumulating wealth over the next year or so. As for what would come after? Huang Feiyang did not believe that the major mobile phone manufacturers would just sit idly by and watch FY Technology rake in money. Compared to FY Technology, those companies possessed vast and mature distribution channels. Therefore, once those manufacturers developed their own similar feature phones, FY Technology’s market share would inevitably plummet. Huang Feiyang was well aware of this, but he remained indifferent. In producing these three phones, his original mindset had been to make quick money and establish a foothold in the industry. As for the rest, was it really that important? With the advantage of his foresight, the money to be made was endless.

Once the major manufacturers shifted their focus to these current styles, he could simply have FY Technology produce more advanced phones. He imagined the reactions of those companies would be quite spectacular when that happened. Hahaha! Just thinking about it made Huang Feiyang feel secretly delighted.

Another thing worth mentioning was Future Network. During this period, it had begun full-scale promotion for "Legend." Nowadays, internet cafes and various landmark buildings across China were plastered with its posters. The advertising costs alone were a significant expenditure. It was no exaggeration to say that out of every ten domestic gaming enthusiasts, eight now knew about this game. The advertising was simply that pervasive. Even Tencent would occasionally pop up promotional videos for the game. Countless players had developed a keen interest in this game, which was officially set for open beta on September 1st.

...

In the blink of an eye, a night passed. Early the next morning, Huang Feiyang was dragged out of bed by Chen Xiruo and Yang Yiyi. It was time for military training!

"What’s the point of university military training?" Huang Feiyang muttered, rubbing his sleepy eyes while in the car. In his memories from this life, he had been sent by his grandfather to the military for "tempering his character" many times over the previous years. Those trainings could only be described as demonic. Compared to what he had endured, university military training was no different from playing house.

"If you don't do the training, it will make you look very antisocial!" Chen Xiruo, sitting to his left, shot him a glare.

"Exactly!"

"Besides, as a student, you should have a bit of youthful spirit!" Yang Yiyi, sitting to his right, nodded in deep agreement.

Huang Feiyang was speechless. What else could he say?

When they arrived at the training grounds, they were immediately met with stares. The three of them were, after all, quite unconventional. The rest of the students had been hauled to the training base by trucks right after their first day of orientation. As the instructors put it, the "real" military training was only just beginning, and they would be undergoing fourteen days of closed-off training. But Huang Feiyang and his companions?

Ignoring all the gazes, they walked toward the main group. While Yang Yiyi felt a bit unnatural under the scrutiny, Huang Feiyang and Chen Xiruo were completely composed. They ignored it all!

As for the three of them, both school officials and instructors maintained an attitude of turning a blind eye. On one hand, it was because Huang Feiyang’s college entrance exam scores were so extraordinary. Giving a little privilege to such a genius was a trivial matter. On the other hand, it was because the three had already had their families make arrangements in advance.

Because of this, the feelings of the male students in the Business Management department regarding Yang Yiyi's sudden arrival were complicated. What made them happy was that another beauty had joined their department. However, what made them grind their teeth in frustration was that this beauty had clearly come for Huang Feiyang. One could well imagine their mood.

The day passed in a flash. That evening, on the way home, Huang Feiyang received a call from George. After listening to what George had to say, a look of utter astonishment appeared on Huang Feiyang's face. George's friend had already reported to FY Technology. That wasn't the point! The point was, he could actually recruit an entire chip development team? The cost was just a bit high! The team’s requirement was a fifty percent increase in their annual salary, and they demanded that research funding be unlimited. George had called to seek Huang Feiyang’s opinion: should he recruit this team, and should he agree to their demands?
