Fang Dien next reported about the other companies who wanted to have partnership with them. Fang Dien already had plans to those companies. He listed out some that could help IHZHI on the long way.

"This company is on their last straw. They offered us a 50-50 for this partnership. They are going bankrupt since the owner has a lot of debt in both official banks and loan sharks. I want to have your opinion on this."

Xiong Zhi stared at the handsome Fang Dien. He was more dashing than the last time she saw him. He was like a real CEO who was serious all the time.

"What do you think?" Xiong Zhi just throw the question at him. She knew Fang Dien has already plan for this. But he wants her consent. It was probably a big risk and money.

"Land Co. is an old company. It is only a part of their lives where they will go down. Their scope has a lot of room for growth  and improvements and benefits. They owned a lot of lands. And it was always good to invest in properties. Properties never decreased in price but always go up. I think it's good to invest in properties..BUT..."

Fang Dien's eyes gleamed like a fox. He showed his crafty side.

"But taking them in is a big risk. Their loan is big. If we add the banks and loan sharks, it will cost more than a billion. If we add up the interest they had for years, it will cost us more than ten billions. With the renovation and constant support from us, it will be more than that...then if that so..why we just buy them?"

Xiong Zhi just raised her eyebrow slightly. Was she waiting for this? Fang Dien wanted to ask her consent on this since it was a big matter, big risk, big money, yet big benefits.

"Okay. Made them part of the board so they will work hard as well. Don't replace the old workers."

Fang Dien smiled.

"I got it." Fang Dien knew that the owner might not agreed to let them bought Land Co. For years of struggling, they never even think of selling this company that came from their grandfather's. He knew the owner wanted to keep this company as a momentum as well to let Land Co's workers to not lose their job. Because of this kindness, even in toughest time, the owner did not fired his workers, he continued supporting them and giving them incomes even Land Co. did not get any sales that month. Offering him 50-50 of shares was the limit of the owner.

That's why it was a good thing Xiong Zhi wants the Owner of Land Co. as a part of board of directors. Not only the owner would have access to Land Co. He will also have shares of the entire IHZHI. No doubt, this owner would be won over by IHZHI.

Like him, his boss was crafty too.

They talked more about some companies and projects that needed her consent.

After that, Xiao Mei began her reporting.

She laid down her own file on the table.

"We gain a lot of fans in these past two months since the last projects are successful and we are holding SHM. I gathered some connections internationally.   Few organizations gave invitations in these upcoming events-" Xaio Mei showed a list of events that IHZHI got invited to. As she was about to move on the next page, Xiong Zhi stop her and get the file.

She looked at one of the events.

It was a big event that only the mightiest in business industry could get to attend. She was even shocked when she saw that IHZHI got a sit for VIP'S.

She looked at Fang Dien, her eyes asking how they got this golden invitation.

"One of the project you invested early on is the culprit. Ms. Cang Nian is the one who proposed the project on her company but did not get sufficient resources. But you came in, invest millions in her project and it become successful lately. The company did not expect that she is the younger sister of the legendary Mr. Cang. Ms. Cang Nian begged her brother to give us an invitation.  Now we are getting this opportunity rather than her company." Fang Dien explained

Xiong Zhi nodded. Mr. Cang owned IAmFashionista. He was known as a legendary artist, stylist and designer. What's more legendary about him was his connections. He has backings of bosses internationally and the host of every parties of legendary figures.

She looked at the file again where IHZHI was invited as a VIP in IAmFashionista.

No one knew or even saw that younger sister of Mr. Cang. For Xiong Zhi, it was an unexpected luck that they've got connections with Mr. Cang's sister. That was a great surprise.

"Rope her in. She must be having a hard time in her company right now." Xiong Zhi said.

Giving them this golden invitation shows that Ms. Cang Nian was grateful to them rather than her company. And because of that, the company might take a grudge against her. Even we say she was the younger sister of the legendary Mr. Cang and could not touch her, they could touch her principles and pride.

" I already did. They actually took Ms. Cang Nian's project from her, stripping her royalties and control on the project. Because of that Ms. Cang Nian went to us and applied for a job. Now she is working on another project of hers. I can see she has real talents. I think her new project will be more successful than her first one. "

Xiong Zhi was happy to hear this. An addition of capable people in IHZHI would make IHZHI greater.

Furthermore, she got a stable connection to the legendary Mr. Cang.

In the future, IHZHI would have more opportunities to cooperate with big companies and it would be easier to establish their selves internationally with Mr. Cang's help.

Xiong Zhi looked down again to the file.

IAmFashionista is just a month away.

It was a big event where legendaries gathered. The runaway was only an excuse to gathered this people around. It only happens once in a three years. Attending this event was a big opportunity for everyone.

Having a golden invitation was still far for IHZHI. However, they got this. People would be shocked if they knew a less than year old company would come as a VIP.

Xiong Zhi could not help but smile. She was sure that the Old Xiong would be there. What would be his reaction if he knew that her company got to sit beside him? Xiong Zhi can't imagine his face. His expression in her mind was always stern. It would be refreshing if she got too see a change in his expression once.

However, she knew it was not yet the time.

"Fang Dien bring Xiao Mei with you in this event. You know what to do. Who to contact to." Xiong Zhi started reminding Fang Dien.

"You will not come?" Fang Dien heard Xiong Zhi and he felt like this young girl wants to go but couldn't. He could not understand it.

"I can't. I told you. You're the CEO. It is not yet time for me."

"That's not what I'm talking about. Can't you attend as a Xiong? I heard that your grandfather and your cousin will be attending. Your grandfather can get an extra sit for you right?" Fang Dien did searching to Xiong Zhi in his first month. Of course, he wanted to know who was this Xiong Zhi who appeared out of nowhere with a lot of money and started building a company. Making impossible to possible.

At first he was shocked that he met one of members of the legendary families in China. Not only that, his boss was the YOUNG MISS OF XIONG. The only one of heir descendants . He did not fully believe it at first. Since it was really shocking. But when he saw a picture in the news where Xiong Zhi was wearing a white blue hanfu and was sitting beside the famous legendary old man in Xiong's Anniversary, he knew that the Xiong Zhi he cursed at first meeting was the untouchable Young Miss of Xiong.

Now, he knew the one behind IHZHI he was more confident and bold to every decisions he made. Even it was a big risk and a hard path he was not afraid. Because he had such great backing.

Xiong Zhi stopped for a moment.

Right. She was a Xiong. Her grandfather was part of IAmFashionista. She could request to bring her.

Xiong Zhi faced palm. Yup. She still has her grandfather and the surname Xiong.

"Thank you for reminding me. If I have a chance of course I will come."

Besides....Xiong Wuyue is there. I will not lose this chance to get back on her.

Xiong Zhi for the first time smiled evilly.

Fang Dien and Xiao Mei who witnessed this got chills on their back.
