Chapter 718 WPG Rebellious Traveler! Rumor: There's Aloe Vera on Qizhou Island: Full marks for reading comprehension!

Upon hearing An Wuyang's question, Xia Yuqing immediately inquired with interest, "Where are we going?"

An Wuyang smiled, "Where do you want to go?"

"Qizhou Island?" Xia Yuqing answered quickly.

Li Wenya and An Huchun's first stop on their Spring Festival trip was Qizhou Island. Now that An Wuyang has expressed his desire to go out and have fun, Xia Yuqing's first thought is naturally to go to Qizhou Island.

How could she not guess An Wuyang's thoughts?
An Wuyang nodded. "What do you think of Qizhou Island?"

Xia Yuqing was slightly worried, "Auntie and the others went to Qizhou Island. If we go to Qizhou Island too, what if we run into them? That wouldn't be good, would it?"

"What's wrong with it?" An Wuyang replied indifferently.

“I think it’s great!” An Wuyang added.

“If they can go to Qizhou Island, why can’t we go to Qizhou Island?” An Wuyang’s main point was to be rebellious.

At this moment, he wasn't the CEO of Wugengtian Pharmaceutical Group; he simply wanted to rebel a little.

"When do we set off?" Xia Yuqing asked.

“Let’s go now!” An Wuyang made the choice without hesitation.

Xia Yuqing hesitated, "But we haven't packed any luggage."

An Wuyang calmly replied, "It doesn't matter, we can just buy it."

Hearing An Wuyang's answer, Xia Yuqing didn't say anything more. An Wuyang immediately instructed Duan Zhiqiang to contact the Gulfstream G650ER team and apply for flight routes.

Less than half an hour after Li Wenya and An Huchun took off on the Gulfstream G550, An Wuyang and Xia Yuqing took off on the Gulfstream G650ER.

Two Gulfstream business jets flew one after the other towards Qizhou Island.

This situation came to the attention of those with ulterior motives.

Although the data on business jet travel during the early morning hours is confidential, the level of confidentiality is not high.

After all, the number of business jets departing from Shengqing International Airport, especially Gulfstream business jets, is extremely small. Once a Gulfstream business jet takes off, those with ulterior motives can secretly investigate some matters.

……

The Gulfstream G650ER business jet that An Wuyang was on took off less than half an hour ago.

Koreya, first ear.

Julia Congreve, Second Senior Vice President of Bright Pharma, and Conn Ibervich, Senior Vice President of Ibervich Pharma, were looking at information on a tablet in the living room of an executive suite at a hotel.

Julia is no simple woman; she once plotted to steal Nova's heart-saving pills and succeeded!
At that moment, Julia tapped on the information on her tablet and spoke up, "Two business jets headed to Qizhou Island one after the other at dawn. What do you think 'dawn' means?"

Kang En responded, "Now it's the Spring Festival, the most important festival in Xia Kingdom. People there are generally on holiday. Perhaps the Wugeng family is going to Qizhou Island for tourism?"

The An family of Wugengtian is sometimes referred to as the "Wugengtian Family" overseas.

Julia scoffed, "Do you even think that's possible?"

“The An family is not a large family. According to our investigation, there are only three direct members of the An family who currently control Wugengtian. Even if we add the members of the An family’s collateral branches in Shanghai, there are only six people in total,” Julia added.

“Whether it’s the Gulfstream G550 or the Gulfstream G650ER, they can carry more than 18 people. If you’re traveling for leisure, you can definitely travel on one plane,” Julia added.

Conn's answer was a resounding "No, no, no!"

“There’s a saying on the Chinese internet that wealthy people usually don’t travel on the same plane with their whole family. Apparently, this is to avoid the possibility of the whole family being wiped out in a plane crash,” Kang En added.

Julia chuckled dismissively and offered a sharp critique of the statement.

“Kang En, shouldn’t our two families be allies now?” Julia asked.

Are Guanghui Pharmaceuticals and Aibowei Pharmaceuticals allies?
Barely!
And they can only be considered allies in the one project, the Asia Pacific White Mountains project.

“I’m sincerely inviting you to discuss the situation. If you’re not sincere, we can end this discussion immediately.” Julia had no intention of playing games with Conn.

Conn quickly denied it, saying, "I'm sorry, Ms. Julia, I think we need to have a more in-depth discussion."

Julia looked at Conn with a half-smile, "If you want to have a deeper conversation, that's fine, but we need to discuss the issue of dawn first."

Kang En answered bluntly, "You suspect that Wu Gengtian discovered some special land on Qizhou Island, right?"

Julia countered, "Don't you at AbbVie have the same suspicions?"

"No!" Conn denied immediately.

"The environment on Qizhou Island is not suitable for the growth of ginseng, Korean ginseng, or even American ginseng," Kang En replied bluntly.

Kang En added, "When we discovered that two business jets under the Wugengtian Group were flying to Qizhou Island, we immediately conducted a comprehensive analysis of Qizhou Island."

"First of all, the climate is unsuitable. Qizhou Island has a subtropical climate, with hot and humid summers, which far exceeds the growing temperature of ginseng or Korean ginseng," Kang En explained in detail.

"Secondly, there's the lighting environment. Ginseng and Korean ginseng need diffused light to grow, and the shading rate should ideally be over 80%, but Qizhou Island doesn't have such forest conditions," Kang En said, pointing out the second unsuitable condition.

“Then there’s the soil type. Ginseng and Korean ginseng both require humus-rich forest soil, and there are also requirements on the thickness of the soil. Qizhou Island has more acidic volcanic ash soil, which is also unsuitable,” Kang En said, pointing out the third unfavorable condition.

"Finally, there's the issue of annual rainfall. Ginseng has very strict requirements for rainfall; too little or too much is no good. Normally, it requires 500 to 1000 millimeters of rainfall, but Qizhou Island's average annual rainfall exceeds 1800 millimeters. This amount of rainfall will directly cause the ginseng roots to rot," Kang En said, pointing out the last unsuitable condition.

"Considering all of the above, I don't believe there's any place on Qizhou Island suitable for growing ginseng, Korean ginseng, or even American ginseng," Kang En concluded.

Julia responded with a slight sigh, "You AbbVie investigated so thoroughly so quickly?"

"Didn't Ms. Julia say we should be more sincere?" Conn countered.

"I don't believe that Guanghui Pharmaceuticals didn't investigate this information beforehand!" Kang En added.

“Whether it’s us, you, or anyone else, we’ve probably already investigated this information,” Conn added.

Julia smiled again. "Since Mr. Conn also knows about these things, why hasn't he thought about it more deeply?"

“For example, let’s investigate what unique medicinal plants Qizhou Island has?” Julia suggested. “Once we’ve figured out what unique medicinal plants Qizhou Island has, and then cross-reference them with Wugengtian’s product line, wouldn’t that be like hitting the jackpot?” Julia smiled.

Conn remained silent.

"You at AbbVie have already found out about this, haven't you?" Julia asked again, looking at the silent Conn.

“We at Guanghui Pharmaceuticals have also found the corresponding information. Qizhou Island is the best aloe vera producing area in Koreia, and Wugengtian has a very high demand for high-quality aloe vera,” Julia explained.

“Currently, one of Wugengtian’s products, an essence cream, requires high-quality aloe vera. According to our research, the scar repair technology that Wugengtian is researching also requires high-quality aloe vera.” Julia listed the products that Wugengtian requires high-quality aloe vera.

“The most crucial point is that Wugengtian and Johnson & Johnson have a partnership. Together, they established an aloe vera plantation in Niger, Africa. You at AbbVie should be aware of this as well,” Julia reminded her.

Conn admitted, "We do know about this."

"Based on this information, we conclude that the Wugengtian family's trip to Qizhou Island was most likely due to their discovery of some high-quality aloe vera growing area there," Julia stated her conclusion.

“Mr. Conn, shall we cooperate and seize this opportunity from Wugengtian?” Julia asked.

Conn shook his head, "It's too late!"

"Too late?" Julia asked doubtfully. "We haven't even reached Qizhou Island by dawn. There should still be a chance, right?"

“Right now, while we are exchanging ideas, the five major conglomerates of Coria have already made their move. They have directly landed on Qizhou Island and have taken control of many aloe vera producing areas through acquisitions and joint ventures,” Kang En added.

“The five major conglomerates are ultimately locals of Coria; we can’t compete with them,” Conn sighed.

Julia frowned. "Did they move so quickly?"

"This is Coria, and they are the top five conglomerates in Coria!" Conn simply explained.

What kind of country is Correa? Everyone who knows knows.
The Sansang Consortium alone can represent Coria, so what more needs to be said?
Unfortunately, An Wuyang was unaware of the exchange between the second senior vice president of Guanghui Pharmaceuticals and the senior vice president of Aibowei, otherwise An Wuyang would have laughed out loud!
Perhaps it's because these people have such vivid imaginations?

The whole thing was simply that Li Wenya made Qizhou Island, which has visa-free access, her first destination, and An Wuyang then took Xia Yuqing there to 'accidentally' meet her parents.

What's so complicated about it?

As for the origin of aloe vera...
An Wuyang never even considered it!
Why choose Qizhou Island's aloe vera when there are better desert aloe vera projects available at dawn?
Unless Brother Tongzi tells me!
But Tongzi usually plays dead. He didn't even send a blessing to the esteemed President An during the Spring Festival. How can we expect Tongzi to speak up now?

No kidding!

Even if An Wuyang knew about the misunderstanding between Guanghui Pharmaceuticals and Aibowei Pharmaceuticals, he wouldn't ask Tongzi Ge a single question.

After all, I always ask Brother Tongzi, but he never answers.

At an altitude of 10,000 meters, inside the cabin of a Gulfstream G650ER in flight, An Wuyang was playing a couple's game with Xia Yuqing when his phone emitted a voice call notification.

An Wuyang glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Ren Tianxiang from Pufeng Lotus Group.

An Wuyang patted Xia Yuqing's arm first, and then picked up his phone to answer the call.

Ren Tianxiang's voice came first, "President An, you're heading to Qizhou Island, aren't you?"

"How did you know?" An Wuyang asked directly.

“Your Shengqing International Airport has too few business jets, especially top-of-the-line Gulfstream jets. Your every move is being watched in the early hours of the morning,” Ren Tianxiang explained.

"So, as soon as your two Gulfstream business jets took off at dawn, all sorts of rumors started flying around. By the time I heard the gossip, you should have arrived by now, right?" Ren Tianxiang added.

An Wuyang nodded affirmatively, "We're almost there!"

In fact, it's very close from Shengqing to Qizhou Island, only a little over 1,900 kilometers away, and even a commercial airliner would only need a little over three hours.

Whether it's a Gulfstream G550 or a Gulfstream G650ER, it only takes them a little over two hours to fly there.

"Excuse me, Mr. An, you went to Qizhou Island, right? It must be for the aloe vera there?" Ren Tianxiang asked.

An Wuyang asked in confusion, "What aloe vera?"

"According to rumors, you discovered high-value aloe vera on Qizhou Island at dawn, so you're planning to go there and get it from the corresponding production area," Ren Tianxiang explained.

???

There are many questions surrounding An Wuyang!

He really wanted to know if this was true.
Why didn't he, the CEO who works from dawn till dusk, know about this?
Could it be something his father, An Huchun, did?

impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
Even if this is true, his father won't handle it himself; he'll just tell him and let him handle it.

An Huchun, this rich second-generation, was used to being a hands-off manager, so how could he possibly do things personally?
Ren Tianxiang noticed that An Wuyang didn't seem inclined to answer, so he continued, "President An, I've received some bad news."

"The five major conglomerates of Koreia have already taken the lead in acquiring aloe vera producing areas on Qizhou Island," Ren Tianxiang reminded them.

An Wuyang responded hesitantly, "It only takes us a little over two hours to get from Shengqing to Qizhou Island. Are the actions of the five major conglomerates really that fast?"

Is this reasonable?

That seems a bit too fast!
Ren Tianxiang suppressed a laugh and said, "Perhaps it's because your Wugengtian team has such a good reputation that when people discovered that you two Gulfstream business jets were deployed, they analyzed that this operation by Wugengtian must be very important."

"After all, your whole family was involved, and you even split into two planes to ensure absolute safety," Ren Tianxiang added.

"Given the importance you place on Qizhou Island at dawn, the five major conglomerates acted preemptively," Ren Tianxiang explained.

"Anyway, these aloe vera producing areas won't lose money after being acquired; it's just a matter of how much profit they make," Ren Tianxiang added.

good good!
An Wuyang is speechless.

He couldn't help but marvel at how rich these people's associative abilities were. If they were given reading comprehension exercises, wouldn't everyone get a perfect score?

However, is it a sin to have such a good reputation at dawn?

"Brother Tongzi, are you there?" An Wuyang asked Brother Tongzi, wanting to know if it was impossible to trigger an "event" under these circumstances.

As a result, Brother Tongzi completely ignored him!
An Wuyang could only ask Ren Tianxiang, "Mr. Ren, where did you hear these rumors from?"

As the male protagonist in the rumors, why didn't An Wuyang hear these rumors himself?
