Chapter 102 The Second Tallest Building in the Magic City

As one of the top universities in Hua Country, second to none, Fudan University is an absolutely top-tier institution in the Magic Capital, even surpassing the University of Science and Technology, where Chu Xiner and Zhou Yuanyuan studied.The president training class at Fudan University is definitely a course aimed at successful individuals, with every member of the class being a dignitary. Attending classes here is not merely for acquiring knowledge, but more so for accumulating connections and symbolizing one's status.

Chu Mo's entry into this class at this time was entirely the result of Dean Lu's favor returned with another.

Therefore, this favor was something to be remembered.

As a guide, Li Tingting was quite competent; she took Chu Mo around the school library, sat in on a professor's lecture in a classroom, and even visited the canteen for a meal of two meat and two vegetarian dishes enjoyed by students.

The fried chicken leg tasted very good, and Chu Mo ate two in one go.

"Senior, the president class starts at two-thirty in the afternoon, so we have half an hour left. Shall we go somewhere else for a look, or should we go to the classroom first to get familiar with the environment?"

For Chu Mo, Fudan University was beyond reach; with his college entrance examination score only good enough for a tier-two university, every student who could be admitted here deserved his admiration.

And wandering through the entire Fudan University for a morning also fulfilled a not-so-big but equally heartfelt wish of Chu Mo.

Chu Mo also knew that Li Tingting accompanied him around the school as a task assigned to her by Dean Lu. He had already delayed her for a whole morning, and from the several times she took out her phone to look at the time, it was clear that, in her heart, the research in her laboratory was more important than accompanying him.

Thus, after coming out of the canteen, Chu Mo gestured with his hand and said:

"You really went through a lot today, taking me on a tour of the entire school. I already know where the president class is located. I can go there by myself later. The lab must be busier, and I don't want to disturb you researchers any longer."

Li Tingting hesitated slightly beside him; the task personally assigned to her by Dean Lu was to ensure she accompanied Chu Mo well and to not let this potential gold mine have any dissatisfaction.

The research institute had already entered the critical stage of the project. Three hundred million in investment had been received, with two hundred million already received. The last portion of the investment could not have any accidents.

Otherwise, all the previous efforts would be in vain. So, despite indeed being concerned about the matters of the institute, Li Tingting, steeling herself, still insisted earnestly:

"We have completed ninety-nine percent of the long march, with only the last step remaining. If you don't let me take you to the destination, I'll also feel restless. No matter how urgent the task, it can wait for this short while."

Hearing this, Chu Mo unintentionally glanced at the girl again. Although she still had faint dark circles under her eyes, her whole being radiated a positive energy.

Without further ado, Chu Mo nodded slightly.

The graceful girl by his side took the initiative to say:

"Senior, the members of this session of the president class are all quite extraordinary, many of whom are well-known. You might be able to meet many successful individuals here, Senior."

Hearing this, Chu Mo responded jokingly:

"What, don't I count as a successful person?"

The two talked and laughed as they went along, and soon arrived at the classroom. Chu Mo, arriving half an hour early, was naturally the first one there. After saying goodbye to Li Tingting, who had completed her task, Chu Mo found a corner seat and sat down.

Alone in the classroom, Chu Mo felt as if he had returned to his student days. Breathing deeply, he seemed to catch the scent of books.

Just as he was indulging in this moment, the sound of footsteps approached, and in front of the classroom door appeared a middle-aged man in a suit.

"Hey, someone arrived even earlier than I did. You look unfamiliar, young man."

The man, roughly in his early forties, was tall and robust, his black leather shoes shining brightly.

Chu Mo, seated in the corner, stood up and extended his hand:

"I'm new here, today is my first class."

"No wonder." The two shook hands firmly yet gently, and the man with shiny hair cheerfully said:

"I'm Yu Mingda from Chaoxin Technology, young brother you must be the youngest one in our class,"

Chu Mo had never heard of this person, but with how vast the world is, there were plenty of people he hadn't heard of. He didn't put on airs and simply said:

"My name is Chu Mo..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the middle-aged man named Yu Mingda immediately raised his eyebrows and asked:

Read new chapters at empire

"The Chu Mo from Bafang International?"

Chu Mo nodded, while wondering, "Brother Yu knows me? I didn't know I was so famous."

"Hey!" Yu Mingda patted Chu Mo on the shoulder very familiarly and laughed, saying:

"Let me put it this way, I have some connections with Sun Shangwu, and I heard him mention you a while ago. I've never seen Old Sun praise someone so highly before.

By the way, Brother Chu, is that thing about creating a hundred-billion club true? I've heard Old Sun talk about it several times; my ears have grown calluses. But I haven't seen any moves from you, brother."

Chu Mo hadn't expected that, without him being in a hurry, someone else had started to get anxious for him.

The two of them sat side by side, and there indeed was a feeling reminiscent of the school days. Adjusting his glasses, Chu Mo said with a smile:

"Since Brother Yu is familiar with Old Sun, then you should know that I have just taken over Bafang International. There are many matters I have just started to figure out. Plus, I've been delayed by some other things recently, so I haven't been in a rush to expand."

Hearing this, Yu Mingda's face changed shades as he said quietly:

"So, brother, you're really interested in the chain hotel business?"

When Yu Mingda had heard about this from Sun Shangwu before, he had completely taken it as a joke—an immature kid in his twenties, whose family supported him with a ten-billion investment to acquire Bafang International, that already seemed like considerable support.

As for building his own hundred-billion empire, it sounded far-fetched no matter how he heard it. Previously, Yu Mingda had even mocked Sun Shangwu for being duped by Chu Mo's pie in the sky.

Yet, now, meeting the person face to face, Yu Mingda somewhat believed it to be possible and probed: Searᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Brother Chu, if you're really serious, I might have an opportunity."

Waiting until Chu Mo turned his gaze, Yu Mingda continued with unusual seriousness:

"Most people only know that our Magic City's tallest skyscraper is the 632-meter Magic City Central Building. However, not as many know about the second tallest, right next to the Central Building—the 492-meter Magic City Financial Center. Have you ever paid attention to it, Brother Chu?"

At those words, a glimmer of curiosity flashed in Chu Mo's eyes as he nodded lightly. Before Chu Mo could even speak, Yu Mingda revealed his suggestion:

"The Magic City Financial Building corresponds with your Bafang International from afar and is right within the area you're planning.

The building's layout plans for a shopping mall from the 2nd basement level to the 3rd floor above ground, conference facilities from the 3rd to 5th floors, offices from the 7th floor to the 77th, hotels from the 79th to the 93rd, and viewing facilities from the 94th to the 100th floor.

Brother Chu, if you're truly determined to get into the hotel business, taking over this Financial Building will guarantee a job half done with double the results."

Without rushing to answer, Chu Mo's eyes sparkled as he said softly:

"Brother Yu saying this, you must have some special way, right?"

As Chu Mo finished speaking, the sound of high heels striking the floor came from the doorway, followed by a mature woman with wavy long hair who said with a coquettish smile:

"Yu Mingda, you've become quite something, huh? A financial building worth several hundred billion is also within your reach?"

And the moment he saw the mature woman, Chu Mo's eyes slightly narrowed.

This woman was one of the few people Chu Mo knew.
