Game within game: chess player

"Xiao Feng, is that you?"

"Hello, Boss Fang! I haven't contacted you for a long time. Why, are you here in Haojiang?"

Feng Liping's long-lost voice came over the phone.

"No, I will definitely go when I have time. Xiao Feng, that's it. I have one thing to ask you. I was chatting with a friend just now and he said that he won several hundred million in Lisboa a few days ago. I want to ask about this. Really?"

After Fang Tianhua said this, there was a smile on his lips, but he glanced at Ye Fang from the corner of his eye. Everyone was watching Ye Fang's reaction, except for Ye Fang who looked calm and indifferent.

After a brief silence, Feng Liping on the other side of the phone asked tentatively, "May I ask Boss Fang, is your friend's surname Ye?"

"Yes." Fang Tianhua's eyes suddenly became deep.

"Is he with you?" Feng Liping asked again, his tone cautious.

"Yes, he is by my side." Fang Tianhua turned his head completely to Ye Fang and said slowly.

At this time, Fang Tianhua clearly felt that Feng Liping was breathing rapidly. Because the phone was hands-free, others clearly noticed Feng Liping's emotional changes.

"Hello, Mr. Ye, my name is Feng Liping." Feng Liping's tone was no longer one to cater to customers, it was completely a conversation between superiors and subordinates.

"Hello, Liping. I was chatting with Boss Fang just now. He didn't believe that I won hundreds of millions in Lisboa. Can you tell him whether this is true?"

"Boss Fang, Mr. Ye did win 10 million yuan by playing roulette at the Lisboa Casino some time ago with [-] yuan. This is one of the top ten legendary gambling games since the establishment of the Lisboa Casino. And Boss Fang, Mr. Ye is now He is my boss, I have resigned from Lisboa, and I am currently planning to build Mr. Ye’s casino in Haojiang.”

After Feng Liping said this, the whole room fell into silence. Everyone could not hide the shock in their eyes, and everyone felt that their breathing was a little short. Using 10 yuan to win [-] million yuan overnight, and still being able to come out of Lisboa with all his hair and tail, this is definitely not an ordinary player.

At this time, Ye Fang took over the conversation and asked directly, "Li Ping, how is the new casino project progressing?"

"Mr. Ye, the progress of the overall casino project has been advanced by one-third. Now the entire project has been stopped and people are working day and night to complete it within three months." Feng Liping no longer sounded like a customer service specialist when reporting on his work. It's a completely different feeling. It's the kind of heroism I feel when I have a long sword in my hand.

"Thank you for your hard work, Liping. How is the progress of the gambling project?"

"Mr. Ye, two days ago, people from the Lu family informed that the results of the new gambling license bidding will be announced in ten days. They hope that you will attend. If you are unable to attend due to something else, I will attend on behalf of the company."

Ye Fang's mind quickly turned around, then he looked up and said with a smile, "Liping, tell the Lu family that I will definitely go over and participate. In addition, speed up the construction process of the casino. Maybe Boss Fang will go over with me, and you are ready to receive it." Bar."

"Yes, Mr. Ye, I promise to do a good job in reception. I will let Boss Fang have a good time in Haojiang."

"Okay, Liping, goodbye!"

Ye Fang hung up the phone after saying that. Fang Tianhua, Gong Yimin, and He Wenqiang looked at each other. Fang Tianhua smiled and clapped his hands, and the other two people also clapped a few times in agreement.

"Xiaoye, you really impressed me today. We will definitely support you in ten days and go to your new casino to play." Fang Tianhua said with a smile.

"Okay, it's a deal." Ye Fang then said to Zhou Guanglong, "Brother Long, thank you for organizing it when the time comes. You have many friends. Everyone can go there as long as they have time. I will arrange a chartered flight to and from the place."

Zhou Guanglong was very happy when he heard this. He could call his capable men and some business partners over, and everyone would have fun together in Ye Fang's new casino.

"Okay, I'll make the arrangements. Then my brother will have to spend money." Zhou Guanglong said with a haha.

"Brother Long, no matter what you say, we are all brothers, so don't be polite." Ye Fang put his arm around Zhou Guanglong's shoulders and said.

At this time, Fang Tianhua said to Zhou Guanglong, "Along, it's getting late. Everyone is tired. Let's rest early."

"Okay, okay, I'll arrange for all the bosses to have a rest." Then Zhou Guanglong quickly stood up and walked out of the private room. Fang Tianhua took the initiative to greet Ye Fang and said, "Xiaoye, come with me for a walk."

Ye Fang glanced at Lang Wenyao and knew that Fang Tianhua must have something to say to him, but he just didn't know what to say. For someone like Fang Tianhua, who has invaded the officialdom for many years, he is as sensitive and suspicious as the drug dealer Zhou Guanglong. On the surface, he likes the feeling of being superior to others in the officialdom, but he also longs for the unrestrained life of spending money like water. In order to deal with such people, Ye Fang must not only do personal protection, but also understand their psychology, so as to ensure the success of the entire action plan.

Zhou Guanglong obviously cleared the venue in advance. There were many secret villas in the mountains and forests outside the club. As for what kind of programs were arranged in the villas, Ye Fang didn't know. It's just that Ye Fang didn't see anyone on the way out of the club, as if these people disappeared out of thin air. Obviously this was to ensure the privacy of Fang Tianhua and the four of them. Gong Yimin and He Wenqiang seemed a little impatient. After walking out of the club, they were taken to the forest villa by the service staff. Only Fang Tianhua walked towards the club accompanied by Lang Wenyao and Ye Fang. The service staff followed them from a distance and did not dare to near.

"Xiaoye, is my money safe with you?"

Fang Tianhua's words, intentionally or unintentionally, shocked Ye Fang's heart. Ye Fang, who was thinking very quickly, glanced at Lang Wenyao. Seeing Lang Wenyao nodded, he immediately realized who owned the black money that Lang Wenyao had invested in on behalf of Jiuding Group. It turned out to be Tianhua's money in front of him.

Of course, Ye Fang also understood that it was definitely not just Fang Tianhua's money, but most likely also money from other interest groups. Ye Fang secretly hated Lang Wenyao for not communicating with him. In fact, the two people did not have a chance to discuss this issue. Originally, Lang Wenyao wanted to arrange a meeting between Ye Fang and Fang Tianhua, but he did not expect that the two would meet like this at Zhou Guanglong's private party.

"You can rest assured about the safety. In ten years, the return on this money will not be less than ten times." Ye Fang affirmed.

Fang Tianhua nodded with satisfaction and said slowly, "Can we still increase capital now?"

"This..." Ye Fang hesitated, but this hesitation was half true and half false. He did not expect that Fang Tianhua would even want to increase capital and become a shareholder. Ye Fang thought that the previous investment capital of [-] million yuan after deducting handling fees from [-] billion yuan was Fang Tianhua's limit, but he did not expect that Fang Tianhua still had funds to invest. Ye Fang guessed that he had gained the trust of vested interest groups such as Fang Tianhua.

"What, are you having trouble?" Fang Tianhua asked with a thick eyebrow.

"Indeed," Ye Fang said truthfully, "Now the company is developing very rapidly, and the growth potential of the investments will be fully realized in the next year. Next year we will promote the listing of these companies, so the market value of the company will fluctuate violently next year. To be honest, there are too many large conglomerates and financial institutions lining up to buy shares. It can be said that the company's situation is very good. It's like a gambling table. If you want to raise your bet, will other companies follow? If you do, you should continue to invest money. No. If you follow, your own interests will be damaged, so it will be difficult to handle. After all, the interests of other shareholders are involved. The most important thing is one more point."

"Which point?" Fang Tianhua asked.

"The entire company is not short of money." Ye Fang said calmly.

Hearing Ye Fang's words, Fang Tianhua stopped and looked at Ye Fang deeply, and said, "Think of a solution. Aren't all the solutions to problems come up with by people?" Then he looked at Lang Wenyao and said with a smile, "Wenyao, help. He wants to think of a way."

Lang Wenyao quickly said yes, glanced at Ye Fang but said nothing.

Ye Fang saw that Lang Wenyao was Fang Tianhua's son, and he had to be extremely careful when speaking and doing things to Lang Wenyao in the future. Moreover, what Ye Fang was most worried about now was that Lang Wenyao revealed too much information to Fang Tianhua, making him passive.

"I wonder how much more you want to invest?" Ye Fang asked directly.

Fang Tianhua smiled slightly, but did not say anything. Instead, he told Lang Wenyao, "Wen Yao, you should talk to Xiaoye about the rest."

"Yes, boss." Lang Wenyao bowed and replied.

At this time, several people had already arrived in front of Fang Tianhua's villa. A service staff had already come forward and stood respectfully with Fang Tianhua. Fang Tianhua walked a few steps and then stopped. He turned to Ye Fang and said, "I think the name Ye Nanfang is It sounds better, please use this in the future to cheer me up!"

After saying that, Fang Tianhua ignored Ye Fang's reaction and walked into the villa. From Fang Tianhua's words, Ye Fang concluded that Zhou Guanglong had mentioned him in front of him. After that, he further confirmed his identity through Lang Wenyao and knew what Zhou Guanglong said. Ye Nanfang and Ye Fang in Lang Wenyao's mouth are the same person. Fang Tianhua also wanted to tell Ye Fang through this that he knew his identity, but Zhou Guanglong did not.

The unexpected meaning is your trump card. I know it. Be obedient in the future. This should be the core meaning that Fang Tianhua wants to express.

At this time, there was a service staff following Lang Wenyao from a distance. Lang Wenyao patted Ye Fang on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, find a place to have a good chat."

Then Lang Wenyao asked the waiter to find a teahouse, and the two sat down quietly.

"Your performance today surprised me, Director Lang." Ye Fang took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Lang Wenyao.

"How dare you not bow your head when you are under the eaves!" Lang Wenyao shook his head, as if there was infinite bitterness in his heart.

"How deep are you in?" This sentence is very dangerous for Ye Fang's current situation. If Lang Wenyao relays this sentence to Fang Tianhua, Fang Tianhua's mind will definitely have endless associations. But now Lang Wenyao would think that this sentence was purely a concern from Ye Fang, and did not think about other places. The reason why Ye Fang asked this question was because he wanted to leak out the fish Lang Wenyao. After all, there was no telling how many fish like Lang Wenyao or even bigger than Lang Wenyao would be fished out in this net.

After all, Lang Wenyao was once his partner, and he had helped him before that. There was a moment when he really regarded Lang Wenyao as his life partner.

But when he saw Lang Wenyao on this occasion today, Ye Fang knew that it would be difficult for Lang Wenyao to get ashore.

"It's very deep. There are no outsiders here, and I'm not afraid of you knowing. I take care of all the money coming in and out of Fang Tianhua's family. I am actually Fang Tianhua's big housekeeper." Lang Wenyao said slowly.

housekeeper? ! For the first time, Ye Fang's face showed a solemn look. This not only meant that Lang Wenyao could hardly escape, but also set up a firewall for Fang Tianhua. Because of Lang Wenyao's presence, Fang Tianhua could push many things aside. The penalty will certainly be greatly reduced.

This is a bit difficult to handle! A haze suddenly appeared in Ye Fang's heart.

"How much does Fang Tianhua want to invest this time?" Ye Fang asked.

"It won't be less than two billion!" Lang Wenyao said directly.

"So many!" Ye Fang exclaimed.

"There are some things you don't know. The top leaders of the province have dropped a leader, which makes Fang Tianhua feel very uneasy, so he wants to transfer his property as soon as possible. Then he will return to the capital to take up a practical position in a certain ministry. This matter should be implemented in the second half of the year. "Lang Wenyao now regards Ye Fang as one of his own, so he doesn't hide anything from Ye Fang.

"What will happen if I don't agree to buy shares this time?" Ye Fang asked tentatively.

Lang Wenyao smiled slightly and said, "Fang Tianhua is very interesting to those who follow him. I am in the position I am today thanks to his operation. But this person's structure is limited, which is why I have been unable to change from No. 1.5 The reason why he became No. [-]. He loves to hold grudges, so of course he can’t do anything to you now, but there’s no guarantee that he won’t put a stumbling block behind your back when he returns to Beijing, even if you help him take care of the one billion to eight billion He even remembers the [-] million handling fee you collected."

It seems that Adou cannot be helped, Ye Fang thought to himself.

"Then do I still charge him a handling fee for my two billion?" Ye Fang asked.

"Should you take it or take it? If you don't take it this time, he will definitely find a way to get the 1.5 million from you." Lang Wenyao said directly.

"Okay, I understand. You can go back and tell him that I agreed to this." Ye Fang said.

"Okay, as long as you say this, I will deposit the money into the account in the next few days." Lang Wenyao said.

"So anxious?" Ye Fang was a little surprised.

"Brother, you don't know that I have racked my brains to store so much money. I wish I could transport it all away." Lang Wenyao said angrily.

"Okay, you can save it. I will implement this matter as soon as possible." Ye Fang nodded.

"Okay, please, brother, we will fight in the same trench from now on, and we will take care of each other." Lang Wenyao raised the tea cup in his hand.

Ye Fang thought to himself, who is in the same trench with you? Now that he knows that Lang Wenyao is hopeless, Ye Fang doesn't give up any hope. After a few casual chats with Lang Wenyao, Ye Fang received Lan Lu's call. After seeing off Lang Wenyao, he and Lan Lu walked out.

Because he was thinking about Lang Wenyao's affairs along the way, Ye Fang was not very talkative and even felt a little sad. Lan Lu was by his side and did not dare to talk to him. At this time, Li Jiayi called and reported the situation to Ye Fang. The general idea is that three newly signed artists are not in Beijing now, but are going to Guangzhou to attend a private party. They have already reported to the company before.

Ye Fanggang wanted to say the word "terminate the contract", but then he thought that he couldn't handle the matter this way. If he terminated the contract now, there would definitely be a fuss, which would easily scare Zhou Guanglong. Ye Fang decided to deal with this matter later, and directly told Li Jiayi his opinions on how to deal with it. After a while, he would find a reason to terminate the contract with these three artists. Li Jiayi asked what the reason was.

Ye Fang said three words lightly: "It's unnecessary!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone directly, leaving Li Jiayi holding the phone messy in the wind. What did Mo Wuyou mean?
