The Super Rich: Start from when the family business is about to go bankrupt!

Chapter 582 Is WPG just a mouthpiece? An Wuyang's unreasonable demands! No need to know too much!
Musk piqued An Wuyang's curiosity, and he replied to the message.

'An Wuyang: Which special family?'

Musk: We in the Western world have a powerful R family, and you in the Eastern world also have a powerful R family.

The R family in the Western world is the Rothschild family, which was once shrouded in mystery.

As for the R family in the Eastern world, An Wuyang guessed it should be the Rong Family.

After all, in the Eastern world, if one absolutely had to compare the Rothschild family with the Rothschild family, it would only be this one.
Musk: You guessed the answer, didn't you?

'Are you alright, Rong?'

Musk: Yes!

'An Wuyang: Are they retreating?'

Musk: That's right.

Musk: Actually, they had already prepared to retreat.

Musk: Their earlier withdrawal from Xiaxin Company, symbolizing a shift in their family's status, already foreshadowed the current situation.

Musk: This family is just preparing for a more comprehensive retreat.

'An Wuyang: Is their destination your area?'

Musk: How is that possible?

Musk: If a family like that came to our side, we wouldn't welcome them on our home soil.

Musk: Because they represent the top ecological niche, we don't have enough benefits left to distribute to them.

Musk: Barring any unforeseen circumstances, they should go to neighboring Canada and integrate into its ecological niche.

Musk: The influence of your Xia people in Canada is actually quite considerable, and this particular family began its global expansion seventy years ago. By going to Canada, they can directly integrate into the top tier of the local ecosystem.

Musk: Do you know why they left?

'An Wuyang: I have a feeling you're about to say something quite dangerous.'

'Musk, let's put it another way.'

Musk: Let's assume there's a newly established company competing in the market, and the R family has made a very large investment in this new company.

Musk: For this company, the R family should be considered an original investor, right?

'All is well: Of course!'

Musk: As this company captured the market and grew, the R family grew along with it.

Musk: At the height of the R family's success, outstanding young talents even became vice presidents of the company.

Musk: The R family has always chosen to stand with the company through thick and thin.

Musk: However, there have been a series of changes in the company's management.

Musk: The company has a completely new president, a new shareholder meeting, and adjustments to the investor base.

Musk used very mild language, out of concern that using too strong a language might cause unforeseen trouble.

Musk: For example, Xiaxin Company, which was once controlled by the R family, suffered significant losses due to some management errors by the R family.

Musk: Based on this, some senior executives in the company ousted the R family.

Musk: Coupled with the latest round of high-level personnel changes within the company, the R family members, who previously held senior management positions, are now planning a complete withdrawal from the company.

Musk: Do you understand what I'm saying?

'An Wuyang: I understand the story you told, but I don't quite understand what you're trying to express.'

An Wuyang did understand the story Musk was telling, but what did Musk mean?
Musk: Let me tell you another story.

Musk: You probably know that last year, your biggest online payment app stopped going public, right?

An Wuyang: Of course, this matter has caused a great sensation.

Musk: So you still don't understand what I'm trying to say?

'An Wuyang: I don't want to understand.'

Musk: Sometimes, the world outside is much bigger.

Musk: You guys at Five Glances seem to be doing very well right now, but there's an invisible ceiling.

Musk: Haven't you ever thought about breaking through the ceiling?

Musk: Don't you want to be like me?

'An Wuyang: So someone asked you to act as a go-between?'

An Wuyang wondered why Musk said these things. It was definitely not a simple act of sowing discord, but rather something with a deeper meaning.

Faced with An Wuyang's straightforward question, Musk realized that An Wuyang had truly understood what he meant.

In addition, Musk also understood An Wuyang's seemingly simple but actually profound rhetorical question.

If Musk is indeed someone else's lobbyist, does that mean that Musk is also not in control of his own destiny?

Since one is not free to do as one pleases even when outside, what difference does it make where one is, or what difference is there between the two of them?

Musk: I've said everything I needed to say.

Musk: The situation in Corea is probably beyond your wildest expectations!

Musk suddenly changed the subject, and An Wuyang immediately understood what he meant; his straightforward question was clearly the answer.

Musk is nothing more than a lobbyist for other people!

There are people behind Musk who want Wugengtian to expand internationally, thereby blurring Wugengtian's nature and even further separating it from other entities.

Unfortunately, An Wuyang is more clear-headed than some people imagine!
An Wuyang never says what's good or bad about a place, because he knows very well that everywhere in the world is the same and follows the law of the jungle.

All civilizations are merely an outer garment.

It's simply a matter of which place has a more refined outer garment and which place has an outer garment that looks like rags.

An Wuyang also changed the subject with Musk.

'An Wuyang: What's the situation in Koreia?'

Musk: The Koreia conglomerate may have actually found land possessing the properties of energy-restoring factors, and they are currently verifying it.

'An Wuyang: Impossible!'

'An Wuyang: Based on our analysis and speculation at dawn, it's highly unlikely that Coreya could possess land with such unique characteristics.'

An Wuyang once again refuted Musk, thus reinforcing the previous pre-arranged hints.

'An Wuyang: There's no wild ginseng in Koreia, so how do they cultivate the energy-restoring factor?'

'An Wuyang: Here's a little-known fact: although both Changbai Mountain ginseng and Korean ginseng belong to the Araliaceae family and the Panax genus, Korean ginseng is a cultivated variety, and it differs from regular ginseng in some ways.'

'An Wuyang: Ginseng is a type of ginseng, while Korean ginseng is a type of Korean ginseng. As a cultivated variety, Korean ginseng, based on our speculation, is unlikely to produce energy-restoring factors.'

An Wuyang explained the difference between 'ginseng' and 'Korean ginseng' to Musk.

Although ginseng and Korean ginseng share the same kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, and genus, they are not actually the same species.

After An Wuyang sent the message to Musk, a sudden inspiration struck him.

Could it be that because they are not the same type of ginseng, the energy-restoring factor can be directly extracted from ginseng, while Korean ginseng requires a special extraction process and special compounds to extract the energy-restoring factor? It seems quite possible!
However, whether that's the reason or not, there's no need to delve into it, because the result is already the best possible outcome, isn't it?

Musk: I know all of that.

Musk: But the elementalists we hired from your Xia Kingdom have already found a suitable location.

Musk: More importantly, wild ginseng, specifically Korean ginseng, has been discovered in the corresponding location.

Musk: These wild ginseng roots have been sent to the Koreia conglomerate's lab for testing.

Musk: While the laboratory has not yet confirmed that these ginseng plants contain energy-restoring factors, component separation has confirmed that they contain unknown ginsenosides.

Musk: These ginsenosides, while different from the "energy restoration factor," are currently under further investigation.

【Energy Restoration Factor】is a name given by Wugengtian; it is actually a specific type of ginseng phenolic substance.

'An Wuyang: Are these reports true?'

Musk: 100% authentic!

Musk: We, the Bald Eagles, hold a 50% stake in the Corea project, and this information was delivered directly to me by the Corea conglomerates.

'An Wuyang: How many conglomerates are involved in Koreia?'

'Musk: Sansang Group, Handai Group, SK, LG, Lotte—all the top five chaebols have gotten involved.'

'An Wuyang: Do these large conglomerates even care about such small profits?'

Musk: ?

Musk: This is no small matter!

Musk: The main reason is that you guys at Five Gyms have developed too many products based on energy recovery factors and vitality recovery factors, and both have shown positive synergistic effects on multiple projects.

Musk: Do you think these tycoons wouldn't be tempted?

Musk: Actually, many more conglomerates are interested, but these five are simply more powerful, which is why they are qualified to participate.

'Peace and safety: I need your help with something.'

Musk: What's up?

Musk is not about to agree to An Wuyang's request for help!
'An Wuyang: We need some of your research data before dawn, and also need to bring over some of the special Korean ginseng that was discovered in Koreia.'

Musk: .'

Musk: Do you want to see what you're saying?

'An Wuyang: Just looking into it!'

'An Wuyang: Think back to when you wanted to research the special ginseng at our Tianjingyan base and try to extract energy-restoring factors. Didn't I immediately send you live ginseng plants?'

'An Wuyang: You wanted our limited-edition Double Happiness from Wugengtian, so we at Wugengtian have provided you with a supply far exceeding the combined quota of the five major distributors in Xia Kingdom.'

'An Wuyang: You wanted to visit our R&D center? The most core areas of our R&D center have been open to you before.'

An Wuyang: As for the Tianjingyan base, how many times have you been there?

An Wuyang directly played the emotional card. The preferential treatment An Wuyang had given Musk in the past had now all become a debt of gratitude, which Musk found difficult to handle.

This is probably what they mean when they say: the gifts of fate have already been secretly marked with a price!

Musk, far away in the Bald Eagle, looked at the message sent by An Wuyang and sighed deeply. He was powerless to refute these things.

While Musk could choose to deny it, the consequence would be that he would likely find it difficult to receive preferential treatment from Wugengtian in the future.

But Musk has now developed symptoms of dependence on nighttime pleasures.

Musk: Fine!

Musk: I'll try my best to get you the relevant information.

Musk: As for the special Korean ginseng.

Musk: I'll try my best to get it over there too.

'An Wuyang: Given our relationship, I don't want to try my best, I want a definite answer!'

Musk sighed. His entanglement with Wugengtian was inextricably linked, so he had no choice but to agree.
Although An Wuyang's request was somewhat unreasonable, he had already made it clear that Musk had no choice but to agree under these circumstances.

Musk: Okay, I'll definitely get it!

'Safe and sound: Thank you!'

'An Wuyang: Don't worry, we'll remember you even before dawn if anything good happens in the future.'

Musk: I happen to need your help with something too.

Musk: I heard that the heart-saving pills you two co-developed with Nova Laboratories are very effective?

'An Wuyang: Do you also have heart problems?'

Musk: I didn't.

Musk: But I know a lot of older guys who have this problem.

Musk: How's the production of nitroglycerin?

'An Wuyang: You should ask Nova Pharmaceuticals about that. Some ingredients in the formula they obtained might be controversial.'

'An Wuyang: For example, natural bezoar, you probably don't know what that is, right?'

Musk: I know!

Musk: Gallstones in a cow's gallbladder, right?

'An Wuyang: How did you know?'

Musk: It's no secret that Nova Pharma is testing its heart medication in Europe; the pharmaceutical giants there, as well as our own in the U.S., have known about it for a long time.

'An Wuyang: Then you should also know that there's wild antelope horn powder, right?'

Musk: I'm more curious, where did you get them from?

'An Wuyang: How would I know where Nova Pharmaceuticals got it from?'

'An Wuyang: I don't even know which wild antelope species Nova Pharmaceuticals' "wild antelope horns" come from.'

'An Wuyang: All I know is that Nova Pharmaceuticals got it from Africa.'

An Wuyang really didn't know the details.

Asking too many details is not good!

Who knows what methods Nova Pharmaceuticals used to obtain raw materials in Africa?

More importantly, who knows if the corresponding 'wild antelope horn' is actually a protected animal?

If it really is a protected wild animal, then who knows how Nova Pharmaceuticals obtained it?

As for environmental issues and the idea that there is no harm without buying and selling, some people have never even eaten bird's nest or shark fin, yet they are actively sharing the burden of evil?

Besides, if there is a real trade and the profit is very high, then there will be no harm at all!

Nova Pharmaceuticals would simply designate a piece of land as a nature reserve, and then, under the guise of research and conservation, bring in antelopes to raise them before removing their horns.

Many species of wild antelope possess the ability to regenerate horns, similar to deer antlers, making it easier to combine conservation with trade.
