Chapter 549 Meng Chuan Becomes a Sensation Online Again
Chapter 549 Meng Chuan Becomes a Sensation Online Again
Liu Qian had always known that Meng Chuan was very rich.
But she never knew how much money Meng Chuan actually had.
Because she never asked.
But she was, after all, a high-achieving student.
Although she wasn't particularly interested in business, she was born into a business family.
Therefore, she has a good grasp of the concept of 100 billion.
Her father spent most of his life working hard to accumulate a fortune of several billion.
They almost went bankrupt.
But when she met Meng Chuan, he was just a poor high school student.
In just over a year, she couldn't believe that Meng Chuan could already come up with 100 billion to invest in the so-called public welfare university.
That's why she asked: Where did you get that 100 billion from?
In fact, Liu Qian wasn't the only one who was so shocked.
Meng Jianguo and Zhang Mei were also extremely shocked.
Although Meng Chuan had told them that he had more money than he could ever spend.
However, they didn't know exactly how much money Meng Chuan had.
A hundred billion? That's no small amount of money!
Can Meng Chuan really come up with that much money?
"Sister, you're my brother-in-law's woman, haven't you ever asked him how much money he has?"
Before Meng Chuan could speak, Liu Dong, rubbing his forehead, said something rather speechless.
He truly hadn't expected his sister to be so naive and innocent.
If it were any other man, he would surely have been cheated out of his money and his virtue.
Why would I ask him how much money he has?
Liu Qian said somewhat awkwardly.
Liu Qian never asked about Meng Chuan's money, not only because she herself wasn't interested.
Most importantly, she and Meng Chuan were just boyfriend and girlfriend.
They're not actually married yet!
"Sister, my brother-in-law's net worth is no less than 5 trillion now, am I right?"
Liu Dong's last question was directed at Meng Chuan.
Because he didn't know exactly how much money Meng Chuan had.
However, he and Shen Yue had privately and carefully considered Meng Chuan's business.
Based on what can be calculated publicly, it is no less than 5 trillion.
Shen Yue also mentioned that Meng Chuan has some businesses overseas.
For example, Mengying Capital is managed by the young but cold woman who is always by Meng Chuan's side.
However, Shen Yue did not know exactly how many businesses Meng Chuan owned overseas.
Upon hearing the figure of 5 trillion, Liu Qian and Meng Chuan's parents stared at Meng Chuan in shock.
They originally thought 1000 billion was already an astronomical figure.
Unexpectedly, Meng Chuan has a 5 trillion yuan capital empire behind him.
How much does it cost exactly?
"more or less!"
Meng Chuan said somewhat awkwardly.
Of course, while feeling embarrassed, Meng Chuan also felt a rare sense of pride and smugness.
Meng Chuan was particularly pleased by Liu Qian's shocked yet admiring gaze.
"About the same? I think it's far from it. Do you think I don't know you? You always liked to hide your talents back in your student days. I bet you're worth at least 6 trillion."
Liu Dong mustered his courage and guessed.
Liu Dong was indeed guessing wildly, but he was really just being bold.
His target price is Meng Chuan's net worth of 5.5 trillion, which should be about the maximum.
After all, money isn't something you can just easily earn.
Of course, Liu Dong was only calculating Meng Chuan's existing assets.
If he knew that Meng Chuan had no less than 8 trillion in cash, I wonder what he would think!
"Alright, stop guessing. As long as Meng Chuan knows what's going on, we've all benefited from Meng Chuan's success."
Amidst the shock, Liu Fu felt mostly gratitude.
I am also glad that I was so sure that I had a good opinion of Meng Chuan back then.
Otherwise, the Liu Group would not have reached a market value of 9000 billion.
Riding on Meng Chuan's coattails, the Liu family truly achieved a leap in social class.
"Meng Chuan, since you're going to do charity work, then you should entrust the construction of this school to Shen Yue!"
Liu Fu said to Meng Chuan.
"This is actually something I need to discuss with you."
Meng Chuan nodded and looked at Shen Yue:
"Does Shang'an Real Estate still retain its design business?"
The Liu Group was, after all, a newcomer to the business.
However, Shang'an Real Estate is a long-established real estate company, and Meng Chuan wanted to hear Shen Yue's opinion.
If that doesn't work, we'll have to hire an international team.
"Mr. Meng, rest assured, Shang'an Real Estate is definitely one of the top in the country when it comes to design business."
Shen Yue said excitedly:
"If you entrust this business to us, we guarantee to build you a world-class, modern university."
Shen Yue couldn't help but be excited.
Now that Liu's Group and Shang'an Real Estate have merged, their market value is booming.
However, the only projects we can be proud of are those in the provincial capital.
The real estate industry is currently in a slump.
Even the Liu Group doesn't have any good development projects.
Now Mengchuan is going to build a school, which is a project worth hundreds of billions.
If this project were to fall into the hands of the Liu Group, the Liu Group would definitely become an instant success.
This truly solidified its position as a leader in the real estate industry.
Furthermore, the Liu Group's market value can definitely exceed one trillion.
"Okay, then make the renderings as soon as possible."
Meng Chuan nodded, then looked at Liu Dong:
"As for you, immediately arrange for the construction team to move in. Apart from technical personnel, recruit as many ordinary workers as possible from the local area. Moreover, the wages of all workers should be increased by 50% from the market price."
Since we're going to do charity, let's see it through to the end.
The current wages for migrant workers on construction sites are only around 4000 yuan.
Even a 50% increase would only cost 6000 yuan.
6000 yuan may not be much for wealthy people.
But for migrant workers, it could more than double their quality of life.
Most importantly, this can also boost the local economy.
However, while Meng Chuan and Liu Dong were discussing it...
The area outside the county town was also in complete uproar.
What was originally just news in the county spread like wildfire in the city and across the country.
[My goodness! A hundred billion to build a university? That's more than our county's entire annual GDP!]
That kid from the Meng family is a reincarnation of a god of wealth! Everything's free, and he even subsidizes his living expenses—it's practically giving away money.
They're so rich, but I'm not envious. My children can go to university locally in the future.
Everyone is talking about it, and at the same time, they're frantically posting on WeChat Moments and Douyin (TikTok).
[Does anyone know this?! A top-scoring student wants to build a free university in our county!]
My darlings! Our family is finally going to have its own university!
Even many teachers and principals at the county's No. 1 High School shared the county's news.
With text:
My former students, my current pride.
With such extensive publicity, the topic of Meng Chuan's 1000 billion yuan investment in building a public welfare university topped the trending search list in just three hours, with over 5 million views.
The top-rated comment was a caption from a teacher in a mountainous area:
The prosperity of education leads to the prosperity of the nation; Meng Chuan's actions deserve to be commemorated with a monument!
This was followed by a repost and comment from a university professor:
[It is recommended that Meng Chuan be awarded the title of Social Educator; such vision far surpasses that of a businessman.]
Of course, controversy followed.
A certain financial blogger made shameless statements in his live stream:
What lies beneath the veneer of capital's philanthropic charitable nature? Where is the return on investment for a hundred billion? Who would do something without a return?
The comment section was instantly flooded with angry netizens:
You'll never earn a hundred billion in your lifetime, and you can't even imagine someone giving up their entire fortune for their ideals!
