Chapter: 6483

He Chengquan awkwardly laughed and said, "Luckily it was just a dream. In normal circumstances, I would definitely not ask such questions with a stranger present."

Xiao Churen nodded and smiled, saying, "It's just a dream, after all."

As they were talking, Xiao Churen stood up and stretched his lazy back, saying to He Chengquan, "Old man, I have to go to the Imperial Group in the morning. Do you have any plans for this afternoon?"

He Chengquan shook his head, saying, "I don't have any plans. Why?"

Xiao Churen said, "There's a press conference at Golden Hall Palace in the afternoon. It seems that the Yan family from Yanjing and the An family from America are going to jointly announce a major cooperation project together. One of my clients happens to be a financial media company, and she is attending this press conference. This press conference has invited many media outlets, and each outlet has allocated several slots. Just happen to have two empty slots available for us, I was thinking of going to see the scene, would you like to accompany me?"

He Chengquan was taken aback, not expecting Xiao Churen to suddenly want to attend the afternoon's news conference.

Originally, he himself had planned to go to Golden Hall Palace in the morning to attend an internal meeting, and then mix in with the media seats during the press conference in the afternoon.

But it turned out that his wife was also interested in this press conference.

He asked curiously, "Wife, you didn't seem to care about joining in on hot events before. Why are you suddenly interested in attending a news conference today?"

Xiao Churen said seriously, "The Yanjing Yan family is one of the strongest forces in the country, and the Imperial Group is actually theirs. As for the An family, I don't know if you've heard, they're the strongest Chinese family globally, stronger than even Miss Fei's family. They used to have developed extensively in America, very rarely having any activities in China. However, these two families are now deciding to invest together in Jinling. Every concerned person about Jinling development wants to know what industries they plan to invest in, and it can be confirmed that when these two families join forces, the investment will definitely be on a large scale."

As she was speaking, Xiao Churen said again: "I've heard that for the past few days, new and second-hand house transactions in Jinling have basically come to a standstill. The developers of new projects and second-hand property sellers are now waiting for this press conference. Once these two families really announce their plan to develop a super project together in Jinling, the housing prices will definitely rise, and the farther away from the project site, the greater the increase will be. Now, nobody knows the specific details of this lucrative deal, so everyone is afraid of selling their properties at a loss, hence they are all waiting."

Yè Chén couldn't help but feel nostalgic: "Who would have thought that these two families' investment in Jinling would have such a huge impact on Jinling's housing prices?"

Xiao Churen smiled: "The specific impact will be known after today's press conference. So, old husband, do you have time this afternoon?"

"Yes." Yè Chén nodded and said: "I'll accompany you!"

Just like Xiao Churen had said, the entire Jinling, even the entire Chinese nation, was paying close attention to the specific contents of An Family and Ye Family's cooperation.

The relationships and grudges between these two families dated back many years, actually going all the way back to 20 years ago when they were known throughout the southern regions of the Yangtze River.

At that time, various newspapers, magazines, and gossip publications had extensively analyzed and reported on the enmity between these two powerful clans. Even now, a search online can turn up a plethora of related articles, many of which are artistic interpretations of past events, with extremely high levels of fabrication and low credibility.

The more unclear or false rumors about these powerful families spread, the more people would treat them as gossip to be discussed over tea after meals.

However, 20 years ago, neither of these two families had ever responded to the grudges between them, nor was there any tangible evidence to prove that they still maintained any connection.

Until now, people are unaware of what exactly happened back then, but everyone knows that these two families have long since reached a point where they will never get along again.

Nowadays, this sudden strategic cooperation declaration between the two families has indeed left many people surprised, not just the major media outlets, but also the general public.

As for the Ye and An families, their high-profile press conference was held in the largest banquet hall of Buckingham Palace, which could accommodate over 2,000 journalists and staff from various media outlets.

This time, all major media outlets with a certain level of recognition worldwide were invited to attend. The number of confirmed attendees, including reporters and staff, exceeded 2,000 people.

But what Ye Chen didn't expect was that his wife, who usually dislikes being involved in noisy events, would show interest in this press conference.

Anyway, he had planned to attend the press conference as an observer with his wife, so it wouldn't have any impact on their plans. JrNovels.com
