After the divorce, he went on a motorcycle trip, and his ex-wife and daughter were filled with regre

Xia Yu was startled when she heard her name called.

She was completely absorbed in searching the emoji library for a "killer" emoji to retaliate against Jiang Ye, and didn't notice that Shen Qinghan had already finished speaking.

The sudden roll call made Xia Yu momentarily flustered.

She frantically locked her phone screen, grabbed the USB drive and laser pointer that were next to her, and stood up abruptly.

Because she got up too quickly, her knee accidentally hit the back of the chair in front of her, making a dull thud.

All eyes in the conference room instantly turned to her.

Xia Yu's face flushed red instantly, all the way to the roots of her neck.

She took two deep breaths, trying to calm her breathing, which had become somewhat rapid from the meme battle.

Before walking to the podium, Xia Yu suddenly turned around and glared at Jiang Ye with a look that seemed to want to tear him to pieces.

It's all that bastard's fault!

If it weren't for him constantly causing trouble from behind and disrupting my rhythm, I wouldn't have made such a fool of myself in such an important occasion!

Jiang Ye sat in the back, watching Xia Yu's adorable, flustered expression, and suppressed a laugh as he mouthed, "Good luck, President Xia."

Xia Yu gritted her teeth, turned around, and strode towards the podium in her high heels.

It's only a short distance of a dozen meters.

The moment she walked to the front of the stage, inserted the USB drive into the computer, and turned around to face all the bigwigs in the room.

The panic and blush on her face had completely disappeared.

Instead, there was the absolute confidence that belonged to the leader of the Blue Ocean Group.

Her cool, clear eyes swept across the room, her aura overwhelming, instantly silencing the whispers that had just filled the conference room.

"Good evening, leaders and seniors."

Xia Yu's voice was clear and melodious, unhurried and possessing a convincing power.

"During the impromptu interview downstairs, I shared my initial thoughts with everyone. But in the closed-door presentation that follows, I'd like to set aside the cold, hard data and talk to you about the soul of Genting Highlands."

Upon hearing this, Lei Heng's eyes lit up slightly, and he sat up straight.

The CEOs of the other real estate companies also put aside their contempt and looked seriously at the big screen.

Xia Yu pressed the laser pointer, and the large screen did not display dense data or lengthy text; the entire PPT contained only one image.

It was an extremely exquisite, grand, and detailed panoramic concept bird's-eye view of the Genting Town.

Xia Yu held a laser pointer, the red light moving across the screen as she spoke eloquently and clearly:

"As you can see, this is the multi-format plan that Blue Ocean Group has tailored for Yunding Town. With the Hanzhou historical and cultural IP as the core axis, it precisely radiates outward to create an immersive cultural and tourism block, a waterfront ecological commercial cluster, a high-end health and wellness resort area, as well as low-density quality residential areas and an industrial ecological cluster area."

"This is not a simple patchwork of regions, but a complete business ecosystem that can generate its own revenue, retain customers around the clock, and drive traffic to each other."

The CEOs in the audience stared at the map, their eyes wide with amazement. The topography, waterways, and even the use of the slopes were perfectly matched to the actual survey map of Yunding Town!

Seeing the growing shock in everyone's eyes, Xia Yu calmly dropped a bombshell:

"To develop this map, Blue Ocean Group hired a top international urban planning team a month ago to conduct a four-week on-site survey and model simulation. What's displayed on the screen is not only our vision, but also a practical plan that has already undergone preliminary geological and commercial feasibility verification."

The words fell.

The entire conference room was completely silent; you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone was deeply shocked by Xia Yu's words and the picture in front of them.

What is a dimensional reduction attack? This is a dimensional reduction attack!

While others—including Shen Qinghan, who was just spouting internet slang like "empowerment" and "closed loop"—were still stuck at the stage of piling up "concepts" and "making empty promises in PowerPoint presentations," Xia Yu quietly invited a top international team and even produced on-site concept maps and business plans!

While others are still floating in the air with abstract concepts, Xia Yu has already prepared to break ground with blueprints built from real money!

Let's skip the formalities and let the tangible results speak for themselves.

This is a true pragmatist who gets things done and understands the business!

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

After Xia Yu finished her report, Lei Heng, who was sitting in the main seat, was the first to lead the applause.

Immediately afterwards, thunderous applause erupted throughout the conference room. Several CEOs of real estate companies that were originally competitors couldn't help but nod in approval.

Shen Qinghan sat in the audience, her face pale, her hands tightly clenched together, her nails almost digging into her flesh.

She knew she had lost completely. Utterly defeated.

And in the corner of the last row.

Jiang Ye looked at the radiant, confident woman on the stage, and a genuine smile appeared on his lips.

He took out his phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to Xia Yu.

[Jiang Ye: Well said. However, you lost the meme battle just now.]

On stage, Xia Yu's phone screen lit up briefly, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw it was a WeChat message from Jiang Ye.

She stepped off the stage with a polite smile, then glanced down at the crowd without making a sound.

After seeing the words on the screen, Xia Yu almost couldn't hold back her smile.

That bastard! In this serious setting where the ownership of a multi-billion dollar project is decided, he's still thinking about the meme war he had under the table earlier!

Xia Yu gritted her teeth secretly, cursing Jiang Ye in her mind over and over again.

just,

Even she herself didn't realize that her eyes, which originally exuded the sharpness of a powerful businesswoman, were now filled with a smile that she herself was unaware of.

The closed-door meeting concluded successfully.

Lei Heng stepped onto the stage, took the microphone, and announced in a loud voice, "Colleagues, today's closed-door meeting was a great success. Kunlun Capital has witnessed the strength and sincerity of the Hanzhou business community. We will announce the final ownership of the Cloud Top Town project as soon as possible after our internal evaluation. Now, please proceed to the banquet hall on the top floor. Kunlun Capital has prepared a thank-you dinner for everyone; we look forward to your presence!"

Applause erupted again from the audience.

The crowd began to move out in an orderly fashion.

Jiang Ye sat in the back corner and stretched.

He had no interest in the social drinking and toasting. He stood up, put his hands in his pockets, and followed the edge of the crowd, preparing to slip away through the side door.

I had just reached the side door passage and hadn't even had a chance to push the door open when someone grabbed my shoulder from behind.

"My dear boss Jiang, where are you headed?" Lei Heng asked in a low voice, his tone tinged with helplessness.

Jiang Ye didn't even turn his head, slapping Lei Heng's hand away: "It's time to go home and have dinner. You can handle things inside; I'm just an eyesore here."

"Don't do that!" Lei Heng quickly went around to Jiang Ye's side, blocking his way, and said with a pained expression.

"You absolutely must stay tonight. This isn't an ordinary dinner. That provincial leader is here in person, at the head table number one. He's here specifically to discuss Kunlun Capital's investment plans in Hanzhou. As the mastermind behind it all, if you don't even show your face and just run away, my show can't go on!"

Jiang Ye frowned slightly.

Although he dislikes social engagements, he knows what's important.

Kunlun Capital needs to gain official favor if it wants to expand its operations in Hanzhou and even the entire province.

"Alright then." Jiang Ye sighed and compromised, "But let me make this clear beforehand: I won't give a speech or offer toasts; I'll just sit there and eat."

"Alright! You just need to stay here and oversee things, leave the rest to me!" Lei Heng said with a sigh of relief.
