The BMW 7 Series, with its large body and spacious interior, indeed perfectly suits the aesthetic tastes of the Greater Zhonghua region.

In our country, BMW has always been synonymous with high-end luxury cars.

In the first car, Nie Zhenbang and Yang Anbang were sitting in the back seats respectively.

Yang Anbang immediately reported on the situation of the Wal-Mart supermarket over the past few months, then said, “Youngest, I couldn’t reach you for a while, so I decided on my own to acquire a company.”

This statement caught Nie Zhenbang by surprise. Yang Anbang’s character has always been cautious, never venturing into industries he is not familiar with. Even when Yang Anbang’s company made it to the Fortune Global 500 in his previous life, he followed a specialized path. How could Yang Anbang be so aggressive and bold in this life? Could it be the butterfly effect?

Nie Zhenbang, however, smiled and asked, “What company, and how much did it cost? Tell me about it.

“A small shop on East Street near the front gate of Jingcheng. I once heard customers in the supermarket talking about this store. It specializes in imported electrical appliances and is called Gome Electrical Store. I went to check it out in person. The owner is quite remarkable. In this era, goods are in high demand. However, he could resist the temptation of high profits and stick to the principle of small margins and high volume. This is quite similar to Wal-Mart’s business philosophy. I saw him as a talent and wanted to recruit him to our company, specifically to oversee Wal-Mart’s electrical appliance sector. So, I also acquired his store. The price I offered was an annual salary of 100,000, in addition to 5 percent of the shares in the company’s electrical department,” Yang Anbang explained casually.

Nie Zhenbang, on the other hand, was taken aback. Gome? Huang Guangyu! That’s an extraordinary man. In future times, he would become a top-ranking rich man on the mainland. Nie Zhenbang had not thought that in this life, Huang Guangyu would be recruited by Yang Anbang.

Sensing Nie Zhenbang’s surprise, Yang Anbang became somewhat flustered and said, “Zhenbang, if it’s about the expenditure, I can take care of it.

Regarding the shares, consider it my personal contribution.”

Hearing this, Nie Zhenbang laughed and replied, “Second Brother, do you not trust your own judgement that much? I would like to meet this person. Moreover, your decision is the company’s decision. Our choice to make you the legal representative and the chairman is indicative of our attitude. From now on, you are in full charge of the Wal-Mart supermarket. I will not participate in the daily operations. The industry we delve into and how we operate will be entirely up to you.”

Yang Anbang also laughed and said, “Alright then. Once we get to the company,

I will ask him to come over and meet with you.”

Along the way, seeing all the road guards assisting them by temporarily blocking traffic and saluting, Nie Zhenbang shook his head and said, “Second Brother, we’re being too high-profile now.”

Speaking to himself, Nie Zhenbang added, “Nowadays, in the Jingcheng circle, I presume neither the Li family, the Wang family, nor the Zhang family with military ties are as showy as we are. The saying goes, ‘excessive is deficient’. Our nation’s culture for the past 5,000 years emphasizes moderation in all things. ‘The tallest tree catches the most wind.’ Aren’t we just merchants? You’re acting like a national leader with these special passes hanging on our car. My comrade, this will surely attract jealousy.”

Feeling slightly embarrassed, Yang Anbang chuckled and said, “Well, Wal-Mart supermarket did pretty well this year. After opening stores nationwide, your older sister reckoned we could be considered a national business tycoon. Driving a 212 jeep seemed too modest, so she bought a few luxury cars.”

Slightly confident, Yang Anbang continued, “As for anyone foolish enough to wish trouble upon us, they better have a strong stomach.”

However, having said that, Yang Anbang laughed again and said, “But, youngest, you’re right. We were indeed too flashy. If we keep this up, the elderlies from both our families and old Xiao’s will probably want to have a chat with us. Should we change our cars?”

Nie Zhenbang was definite while replying: “Yes, change them. BMWs and Mercedes-Benzes are too eye-catching. Second Brother, I’m not criticizing you, but you don’t seem to learn anything useful on normal days. You’re acting much like a newly-rich. We should change these cars for something more low-profile. Bentley or Maybach would be a modest luxury.”

The car drove directly into Wal-Mart Supermarket’s new headquarters in Jingcheng. Ever since Wal-Mart Supermarket’s nationwide expansion, it was no longer suitable to work in the small two-story building behind the supermarket. After Nie Zhenbang’s funds arrived, Yang Anbang immediately purchased a ready-made six-story building in the Dongcheng district on the outskirts of Jingcheng’s third ring road. Including the surrounding ancillary facilities, it covers a total area of nearly fifty acres, costing just over sixteen million.

Nie Zhenbang was amazed at the bargain. On entering the company’s headquarters, the first floor was the reception area. The second and fourth floors were the office spaces for various departments. The fifth floor was the office area for the company’s middle-level cadres. The top floor was the office for Yang Anbang and other senior executives.

Next to the chairman’s office, at the entrance, was an office without any sign. This was the office that Yang Anbang and Xiao Yali had specifically reserved for the Nie brothers, Nie Zhenbang, and Nie Jiamin. Considering that Nie Jiamin and Nie Zhenbang will be joining the army and politics respectively in the future, no signs were hung.

The spacious large desk and chair, a row of bookshelves, made it feel a bit dignified. Sitting in the chair, Nie Zhenbang looked at the small national flag and party flag hanging on the table, but he was thinking about Huang Guangyu. As for Huang Guangyu joining Wal-Mart, Nie Zhenbang was only curious at the beginning.

Since his rebirth and changing many things one after another, Nie Zhenbang understood clearly. This world is probably no longer the world he used to know. It’s like a parallel universe, like the many branches on the main stem of history. Since the political leaning of the Nie family had been changed by himself, why wouldn’t it be unusual for Huang Guangyu to join Wal-Mart?

However, Nie Zhenbang believed that Huang Guangyu in this world, still had abilities. Otherwise, with Yang Anbang’s high and mighty character, he wouldn’t have spent such a large amount to bring him on board.

While contemplating, there was a knock on the door. Nie Zhenbang straightened his body and said, “Come in.”

Upon entering, Huang Guangyu stood at the door, appearing a bit nervous. At this moment, Huang Guangyu was only a year older than Nie Zhenbang. Looking at the notorious Nie San, who single-handedly ran Wal-Mart Supermarket, Huang Guangyu was still nervous.

After carefully closing the door, he stood at the entrance of the office and said, “Three Junior, you asked for me?”

Nie Zhenbang laughed at that moment, then motioned to the sofa in front and said, “Mr. Huang, you are a talent invited by Director Yang. Don’t be so nervous, confidence is the most important thing.”

Seeing that Huang Guangyu quickly adjusted his mentality and sat on the sofa, Nie Zhenbang secretly complimented him. True to his reputation as the future richest man, his psychological quality was absolutely first-class. Then, Nie Zhenbang also laughed and said, “Mr. Huang, well, you are one year older than me, I’ll call you Guangyu. I called you over to ask, what is your view of your new role heading Walmart’s Electrical Appliances department?”

Huang Guangyu hesitated for a moment. When he initially joined Wal-Mart, he was captivated by the offered price by Yang Anbang. Now, after officially entering, Huang Guangyu had some ideas. Huang Guangyu always thought, focusing solely on electrical appliances is good. On the contrary, he felt that with Wal-Mart’s approach, people will perceive a lack of professionalism.

Looking at Nie Zhenbang’s sincere gaze, Huang Guangyu fell silent for a moment, then shared his true thoughts, “Three Junior, I think the electrical department should be separated from Walmart Supermarket and become an independently operating and accounting department.”

Originally, Huang Guangyu just casually mentioned this, he didn’t expect Nie Zhenbang to agree. Regardless, since he had agreed, Huang Guangyu planned to stick to his job contract at least for the next few years. But at this moment, Nie Zhenbang laughed and said, “Great! Guangyu, I’m glad you said that. We were planning on restructuring Wal-Mart Supermarket and setting up a new Wal-Mart Group, which will include Wal-Mart Supermarkets and a professional electrical company. Let’s just call it Gome Electrical Appliances. I’m planning to put you in charge of Gome Electrical Appliances. However, I believe a specialized electrical store can still adopt the supermarket model. The whole country will be our territory. We will follow the path of chain operations. I am convinced that in the future, the channel will reign supreme!”

This oft-repeated phrase in his former world was now being used by Nie Zhenbang for the first time, and he spoke about the essence of chain operations and scale operations. Huang Guangyu looked at Nie Zhenbang with new eyes. Is this… is this a human? No, this is a god..
