Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 798: Let Me Make a Few Calls

As a member of the Huang Family, how could anyone not know the depth of the Huang Family’s foundation? When they heard Lin Feng mention acquiring the Shen Corporation, not a single person believed such an event would transpire. The Shen Corporation had been established in Tianhai for more than just a day or two. It wasn’t easy for it to grow to its current magnitude, so how could it possibly be easily acquired by someone? It would be difficult to find a handful of people in the whole country capable of acquiring the Shen Corporation. If Lin Feng wasn’t boasting, then what was he doing!

With this thought, their gazes towards Lin Feng were all filled with mockery. They thought to themselves, Lin Feng doesn’t seem stupid, and they had even heard Huang Shi praising Lin Feng as if he were an Immortal. How could he make such an outrageous claim? How could the Shen Corporation possibly be acquired? Lin Feng really thought he was God. With just a touch of his lips, it was as though he genuinely acquired the Shen Corporation. He was exaggerating beyond belief. Not only they wouldn’t believe it, but no one would believe that the Shen Corporation could be acquired.

What! Lin Feng wants Huang Shi to acquire the Shen Corporation? How is that possible!

When Huang Yu heard this statement from Lin Feng, he was stunned. His brain short-circuited at that moment, unable to understand why Lin Feng would make such a remark. It was simply inconceivable. How could the Shen Corporation be acquired? How could this be possible? To think of acquiring the Shen Corporation, how much money would that take? It would be an astronomical figure. How could Lin Feng possibly come up with so much money, and he even mentioned it so casually. Is this for real or fake?

At this thought, Huang Yu was genuinely frightened. His fear was that, if what Lin Feng said was true, then the Shen Corporation could indeed be acquired, and then all of his previous plans would go down the drain, even the Shen Corporation itself would be gone. Then, then...

Huang Yu now stared intently at Lin Feng, never expecting him to say such things. But to believe that Lin Feng had such strength, he absolutely couldn’t believe it. Lin Feng was so young; how could he possibly possess such terrifying wealth? It was impossible... simply impossible!

"Lin Feng, who do you think we are, the Shen Corporation? A corporation with a market value close to twenty billion? You think you can just acquire it? What a joke. Who do you think you are? Even if you were someone powerful, so what? Don’t spout nonsense here!"

When Huang Mingtian heard Lin Feng say this, his face darkened even more. He could never believe what Lin Feng said to be true. How could it possibly be that Huang Shi’s boss could possess such wealth? It was absolutely impossible. The Shen Corporation valued close to twenty billion, how could someone just decide to acquire it? Who does Lin Feng think he is! So it was clear that Lin Feng must be talking nonsense, because such a thing was simply unachievable!

In Huang Mingtian’s view, Lin Feng, being so young, could not possibly have such wealth. No matter how powerful Lin Feng was, no matter his background, it was impossible. There was no family in the entire Tianhai that could come up with that much capital, let alone such a sudden idea. It was an utter fantasy to think of acquiring the Shen Corporation!

"What, you want to acquire the Shen Corporation? Who do you think you are, the richest person in the country? The bull you’re shooting is simply outrageous, completely nonsensical." When Huang Mingtao heard Lin Feng’s words, he was just as incredulous. He too did not believe Lin Feng could accomplish such a feat. Although Lin Feng’s words were frightening, the reality was that it was an impossibility. With the Shen Corporation being so large, even if someone had the money, they couldn’t just succeed in acquiring it overnight, especially when there was no money at present. It was nothing but an absurd joke!

Huang Mingtao looked at Lin Feng now with a hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth, thinking to himself that after hearing how incredible Lin Feng was from Huang Shi’s praise, he now appeared far less impressive. How capable could a person who dared to boast so wildly be? Huang Shi must have also been exaggerating. How could such a large enterprise like the Shen Corporation be acquired? Lin Feng must be bluffing to bolster Huang Shi, utterly incapable of possessing such terrifying wealth.

"Lin Feng, you..." Huang Minghai was shocked when he heard Lin Feng’s words. He, too, had not expected Lin Feng to come up with the idea of acquiring the Shen Corporation. It took Huang Minghai by surprise. What on Earth was going on? Why did Lin Feng want to do this? Given Lin Feng’s financial resources, it seemed impossible to pull it off. So what exactly did Lin Feng mean by saying it?

Huang Minghai was quite familiar with Lin Feng’s situation. The rapidly rising chemical corporation, the Lin Feng Group, was under the control of Lin Feng’s mother. Although the Lin Feng Group’s growth was unmatched, it was also impossible to come up with so much money to acquire the Shen Corporation. So, what exactly was Lin Feng’s intent? Huang Minghai could not understand what Lin Feng was planning; it was clearly impossible, yet Lin Feng said so anyway. What was going on?

Although Huang Minghai also did not believe Lin Feng could accomplish this task, he knew one thing for certain: Lin Feng’s words had always been followed by action. But right now, he simply could not comprehend where Lin Feng’s confidence was coming from...

"Boss, you..." When Huang Shi heard Lin Feng say this, his heart was indescribably stirred. Others might not know, but he was well aware of the Boss’s abilities. Before, he knew only that the Boss was wealthy, never lacking money. However, during the trip to South Korea, what that Swiss Bank Diamond Platinum Card represented was something else entirely: a minimum deposit of at least ten billion US dollars. If the Boss really wanted to take over the Huang Group, it wouldn’t be a difficult thing to do at all.

What moved Huang Shi even more was the fact that the Boss was doing all this for him. To have someone like the Boss backing him up when he needed it the most left him overwhelmed. He opened his mouth to speak, but found he was at a loss for words, his emotions getting the better of his ability to express himself...

"No need to say so much. Just tell me, do you want to take complete control of the Huang Group?" Lin Feng, of course, understood the disdainful looks he received from everyone around him, their disbelief that he could take over the Huang Group. But Lin Feng didn’t care about them at all. Hearing Huang Shi speak, he directly followed up with a question, knowing that if Huang Shi truly wanted to take control of the Huang Group, everything else would be of no issue.

"Yes!" Hearing Lin Feng say this, Huang Shi didn’t hesitate for a moment to agree. As a member of the Huang Family, how could he not want to take control of the Huang Group? Since the Boss had put the question to him, he would agree no matter what. Huang Shi knew the Boss’s approach: an opportunity comes only once. Although it seemed impossible in the eyes of others, Huang Shi was confident the Boss could do it. If he missed this chance, he might never have anything to do with the Huang Family ever again.

Anyone who wasn’t a fool knew what to do in such a situation. With these thoughts, Huang Shi looked at Lin Feng with grateful eyes, his heart pounding with excitement. Just thinking about taking over the Huang Group, seizing complete control over it, filled him with boundless ambition. Previously, he had many ideas but lacked the power to implement them, keeping them suppressed. Now, with the Boss willing to hand over the Huang Group, he would definitely turn those ideas into action, leading the Huang Group towards an even more glorious future.

"That’s settled then, let me make a few calls." Lin Feng was pleased with Huang Shi’s affirmative answer, it also showed him that Huang Shi remembered his roots. Now that Huang Shi possessed the ability to handle these matters, it was a good time to hand over the business he didn’t want to deal with to him. With that in mind, Lin Feng finished speaking to Huang Shi without bothering about everyone else, and called his mother, Zhang Lan.

"Mom, I have something to tell you." Once Lin Feng saw his mother on the video call, he cut straight to the chase.

"Son, go ahead," Zhang Lan said, noting her son’s expression and feeling quite puzzled by it. The son seldom spoke in such a manner; what could this be about?

"Here’s the thing, Mom. I’ve been the chairman of Lin Feng Group, but I haven’t had the time to manage it. So, from now on, Huang Shi will act as my representative, handling all affairs on my behalf. Could you give a heads up to the board of directors?"

Lin Feng briefly explained the situation and had Huang Shi face the camera so that his mother could see who he was—everything else naturally fell into place. His mother would handle the rest, and he hadn’t even considered the possibility of her objecting, knowing she would surely support all his decisions.

"Don’t worry, son! It’s settled, I’ll take care of these matters," Zhang Lan reassured her son after a glance at Huang Shi on the video call. She had only heard about Huang Shi from her son, his subordinates, but had never met him. Now that she had seen him, she felt reassured. The rest she would handle herself.

Zhang Lan was aware that her son wouldn’t do anything uncertain. Since he had decided to hand over the affairs of Lin Feng Group to Huang Shi, it meant Huang Shi had earned her son’s trust and was unquestionably one of them now. Why hesitate then? Moreover, her son was always so busy he couldn’t look after the group’s affairs. Having someone to take his place was a stroke of good fortune. Zhang Lan was more than happy; how could she possibly object?

"Alright, Mom, I’ll leave the group’s matters to you and Huang Shi from now on. I’m hanging up now," Lin Feng said after seeing his mother agree, and briefly said goodbye before ending the call.

No sooner had he hung up than Lin Feng dialed the phone number of the CEO of the Shen Corporation, Shen Tian.
