A slight smile appeared on Qin Hao's lips.

risk assessment?

It's just that Blackstone Group, the hidden hand behind the scenes, is stirring up trouble.

"Ding Ding Ding-"

The urgent ringing of a cell phone broke the silence.

Qin Hao answered the call.

The anxious voice of the CFO of the domestic company came through the phone.

The background noise was chaotic.

"Mr. Qin!"

"problem occurs!"

"Blackstone Capital suddenly released a short-selling report targeting us half an hour ago."

"The wording was extremely offensive."

"The accusations against our 'Devil's Throat' project are a complete hoax."

"The cash flow is on the verge of breaking down!"

"The stock price... the stock price has started to plummet!"

Almost at the same time.

Charlie's other work phone also started vibrating wildly.

He glanced at the screen, and his expression changed drastically.

"boss!"

"It's the Ministry of Mining!"

"An urgent letter has been sent from the office of the Congolese Minister of Mines."

“On the grounds of ‘questionable environmental risks’.”

"They demanded that our 'Devil's Throat' project immediately suspend all operations."

"Submit to full review!"

"The operating accounts for part of the assets in Congo have been temporarily frozen!"

A double blow, precise and deadly.

The short-selling report incited market panic.

Freezing assets cuts off the lifeline of funds.

Blackstone Group's tactics.

fast.

quasi.

ruthless.

They didn't give Qin Hao a chance to breathe at all.

"understood."

Qin Hao said only three words into the phone before hanging up.

Qin Hao turned to Charlie, his tone resolute.

"Initiate the 'Furnace' project."

"Use all the cash we have available in our accounts."

"Smash everything, immediately, right now, into the purification project!"

"Construction team, give me three shifts, 24 hours a day!"

"The banking and mining departments."

"I'll handle it."

"boss!"

Charlie cried out.

That was our last remaining working capital!

"just in case"

"Nothing unexpected."

Qin Hao interrupted him.

"The Devil's Throat must come back to life."

"And they need to come back to life as soon as possible!"

"This is the only trump card that can turn the tide."

"Blackstone wants it to rot here?"

"I'm determined to cure it!"

"Go and do it!"

Charlie looked at Qin Hao's resolute eyes.

Gritting his teeth.

"understand!"

He turned and ran away, shouting into the walkie-talkie.

At this time.

A furious engine roar came from afar.

A black modified SUV covered in mud.

The car came to a sudden stop in front of the command tent.

The dust kicked up by the tires covered Qin Hao completely.

The car door slammed open, and a figure jumped out.

"Qin Hao!"

Arya's voice was clear but laced with gunpowder.

He rushed to Qin Hao in a few steps.

He pointed his finger at Qin Hao's nose without any politeness.

"I'm about to die in the lab!"

"Do you even know how I've been these past few days?!"

“Dr. Sorenson studies the data 24 hours a day, and I record it every moment.”

"I haven't slept for two days."

"Fortunately, that old man has achieved some results, so he let me rest for a few days."

Arya spoke as she walked into the command camp.

Qin Hao ate a face full of dirt from her.

While listening to Arya's nagging, he patted the dust off his clothes.

They followed Arya into the command camp.

At the same time, Arya also saw the data that Charlie had just submitted.

Qin Hao looked at Aria, who was standing and looking at the data.

Open up.

"Don't worry, this is no problem for me."

When Aria heard Qin Hao's voice in her ear, her furrowed brows softened considerably.

"Why not activate the funding provided by the predators?"

Qin Hao lowered his head and smiled faintly.

"It's just Blackstone Group. Deal with it."

"We don't need predators yet."

"Don't worry, before we go to your grandfather's banquet."

"I will take care of everything."

Hearing Qin Hao's confident demeanor, completely disregarding Blackstone, Arya felt quite relieved.

"Tch, who's worried about you?"

Her arrogant personality is still on full display.

"I'll go check on the mine."

"Crack!!!"

He had barely finished speaking, and hadn't even properly held the gas mask in his hand.

Arya looked down and realized she had stepped on and broken a small detector.

The air suddenly became completely still.

OK
Returning to the day of Abdul's banquet.

anyway.

Aria thought Qin Hao had forgotten.

Qin Hao's face looked extremely dark at the time.

He ran away immediately.

It turned out to be waiting for me here!
"Qin Hao!"

Arya finally couldn't hold back anymore.

Shame and anger completely overwhelmed the slight flutter in my heart.

Arya almost slammed her fist on the table.

"You're a grown man!"

"You're fussing over such trivial matters!"

"You clearly placed that device in the middle of the road yourself!"

"Oh?"

Qin Hao raised an eyebrow.

He looked like he had just realized something.

"So Miss Aria still remembers these 'little things'."

"So, the accounts between us are a mess?"

"Can't figure it out?"

Qin Hao moved closer to Ailiya.

They were so close they could smell the unique, faint, cool floral scent emanating from Arya.

"Then why not try a different algorithm?"

Qin Hao was standing too close!
An aura instantly enveloped Arya.

The pounding of her heartbeat in her ears was so loud that Arya could barely think straight.

"you."

How do you want to calculate it?

Arya's voice trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly, with embarrassment and annoyance.

Qin Hao chuckled softly.

The laughter was like a feather gently tickling Arya's eardrums.

Qin Hao was about to speak

-

"Cough cough!"

A dignified cough, yet with a hint of deliberate intent.

The sound rang out from the main position.

It instantly broke the tense and stagnant atmosphere between the two.

It's Grandpa Abdul.

The old man held a wine glass.

His face wore a knowing smile, tinged with the cunning of an old fox.

He saw it clearly just now.

This little lion of mine is used to running rampant on the grasslands.

In front of Qin Hao, this wolf from the East.

For the first time, he showed an almost helpless and embarrassed state.

That girl's face turned red all the way to the roots of her neck!
This reaction.

This is a stark contrast to her usual aggressive demeanor towards her suitors.

Much more interesting!

"Qin".

The old man's voice was loud and clear, carrying an unquestionable authority, and his gaze swept meaningfully back and forth between Qin Hao and Ailiya.

"The mineral vein has come to life! This is an overwhelming joy!"

"It's worth a big toast!"

"As for the petty squabbles and squabbles among you young people," he paused deliberately.

Seeing Aria's even more embarrassed expression, his smile deepened.

"I, the old man, won't get involved."

"Nothing"

The conversation turned.

His tone carried a hint of solemnity and the authority of a business tycoon.

"Blackstone Group is a worm."

"Dare to come to my territory."

"Using such despicable means to harm my distinguished guest."

"Do they really think predator groups are vegetarians?"

The old man's gaze suddenly swept across the entire room.

“Those little gifts that my friend Charlie just threw out.”

"I don't think the quantity is enough!"

The old man had barely finished speaking.

He's always been like an invisible person.

They stood behind the old man.

Ali, whose presence was discreet, immediately stepped forward.

A encrypted tablet computer was respectfully placed in front of the old man.

Abdul's thin but powerful fingers swiped quickly across the screen.

Then he abruptly turned the tablet screen towards the crowd.

on the screen.

There were several more detailed reports.

Bank transfer records and communications snooping summaries marked with a top-secret seal!

"Behind Finn, that little fry."

"He is the President of Blackstone Group Asia Pacific."

"Victor Chen!"

Abdul's voice carried a murderous aura.

"He not only instructed Finn to frame him."

"Attempting to seize the 'devil's throat'."

"Even more so in the past three years."

"Through illegal money laundering channels."

"More than $80 million in arms funds have been supplied to the 'Freedom Front' (a notorious local anti-government armed group)!"

"The evidence is conclusive!"

"boom--!"

The whole place was in an uproar again!

If Charlie's previous evidence of financial fraud was like a stone thrown at Blackstone's division...

What old man Abdul just threw out was a nuclear bomb that was enough to shatter the entire Blackstone Group's foundation in Africa and even the Asia-Pacific region!
Colluding with anti-government armed groups.

Funding terrorist activities.

This is an absolute capital offense internationally!

"Predator Group, move out now!"

Abdul's voice was resolute, the final verdict.

"Terminate all cooperation with Blackstone Group globally!"

"Freeze all of its assets in the African continent!"

"Use all intelligence and operational resources."

"Cooperate with Interpol to track down Victor Chen and all those involved!"

"I will make Blackstone pay for their greed and despicable behavior."

"Pay a hundredfold price!"

This is more than just a business act of retaliation.

This is after a crocodile that has been entrenched in the African continent for decades was completely enraged.

A declaration of total war has been issued!

The military and political dignitaries and mining tycoons present were all visibly shaken.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Qin Hao was filled with even deeper awe.

-

That made old man Abdul go to such lengths to clear obstacles for him.

They were even willing to unleash a bloody storm.

This young Chinese man.

Its value and potential are simply unfathomable!
"The old man is wise!"

Qin Hao stood up at the opportune moment.

He bowed deeply to Abdul, his posture respectful and sincere.

"It is a blessing for this land to have you in charge."

Qin Hao said it well.

I have inherited the old man's kindness.

They elevated the old man to the status of a guardian.

Abdul laughed heartily with satisfaction.

He patted Qin Hao's shoulder forcefully.

"Qin, you're very good!"

"I'm an old man, and I judge people."

"Never wrong!"

Grandpa Abdul glanced to the side, then lowered his head, pretending to study the pattern on the wine glass.

But Arya's ears were still bright red.

The curve of his lips became increasingly gossipy.

"If this mine is activated, it will become a golden goose."

"what's your plan?"

"If you need any help from this old man, just let me know!"

"Just consider it that way."

"My naughty granddaughter has paid her 'tuition'."

He deliberately emphasized the word "granddaughter".

Aria looked up abruptly.

She glared at her grandfather, feeling both ashamed and indignant.

"grandfather!"

A smile flashed across Qin Hao's eyes.

He was about to answer the old man's question about the mine development plan.

-

"Da, da da."

A crisp, rhythmic sound of high heels clicking on the marble floor.

From far to near.

This abruptly shattered the lively atmosphere that had just been rekindled in the banquet hall.

The footsteps carried an innate sense of superiority.

An aura that cannot be ignored.

Instantly attracted everyone's attention.

The entrance to the banquet hall.

Under the light.

There was a woman standing there.

Her shoulder-length short hair was meticulously styled and shone with a platinum-gold luster.

It made her already pale skin look like porcelain.

A Givenchy women's suit dress with extremely clean and sharp lines, resembling the sharpest blades.

It outlines a tall and powerful curve.

Her makeup was flawless.

What is most striking about her is her eyes, which are an extremely rare grey-blue.

Such as the frozen lakes of Siberia during winter.

It is precisely passing through the crowd at this moment.

They were fixed on Qin Hao, who was sitting at the main table.

Everyone recognized the woman.

Sofia Leclerc.

The sole heir to the French mining group Leclerc.

It is hailed as the "Ice Diamond Rose" of the European mining industry.

The Leclerc family.

It is one of the super giants that can influence the global mining landscape.

Its reach extends to every continent, and its foundation is deep.

His style of doing things is known for being tough, precise, and ruthless.

How come she is here?

And at such a delicate time?
Sophia ignored the various inquiring, surprised, and even awe-inspiring gazes around her.

He strode forward with long strides, heading straight for the main table.

The sound of high heels clicking on the ground.

Every step he takes touches people's hearts.

She eventually stopped in front of the main table, just a few steps away from Qin Hao.

Those icy gray-blue eyes finally moved away from Qin Hao.

Turning to the old man Abdul in the main seat.

She nodded slightly, her posture elegant yet carrying an undeniable sense of distance.

The French accent is pure and cool.

"Your Excellency Abdul, please forgive my uninvited visit."

"I heard you have recovered and are hosting a banquet to celebrate."

“My father, Mr. Leclerc, specifically asked me to come.”

"To him I send my sincerest greetings and best wishes."

Her attendants immediately presented her with an exquisitely packaged gift box.

A glint of light flashed in old man Abdul's eyes.
His face was plastered with the characteristic, impeccable smile of a businessman.

"Miss Leclerc's presence is an honor to grace our humble abode."

Please give my regards to your father.

"His feelings."

"I received it, old man."

He gestured for Ali to accept the gift.

Sofia's appearance.

It could never be simply for the purpose of giving gifts and greetings.

really.

Sofia's gaze returned to Qin Hao.

This time, her gaze was even more direct.

With a critical eye.

Evaluate.

And an elusive interest.

When I think back to the beginning of writing this book, I was really tormented.

This book didn’t actually do very well in the beginning, and the author even thought about giving up on it because not many people read it.

But later, as the plot progressed towards the stage of being put on the shelves, everyone's enthusiasm increased, which made me continue writing it.

Thank you all for your support. Without you, this book wouldn't have been this long, and it would have been killed in the early stages.
