Leveling Up With My Pet

413 God of Wealth !



Jinpen County is a serene corner of the world where the currents of change were stirring, and at the heart of this awakening was County Magistrate Wang Yongwang. Seated regally in his office, he sported a ruddy complexion, an emblem of contentment that perfectly matched his mood. 

Fresh from a meeting in the city, the County Magistrate was basking in the glory of the new dawn for Jinpen County. Once languishing at the county's tail-end regarding economic prowess, this was a new chapter.

Tucked away in the County Industrial Park, the No. 2 factory of Universal Semiconductor Company had sprung to life, producing a steady stream of advanced 8-nanometer process chips. The County Industrial Bureau prophesized a staggering output value exceeding 3 billion in the inaugural month, and a conservative estimate had it crossing the 40 billion mark for the year. 

40 billion! The implications for this quaint county town were momentous, for Jinpen County had grappled with breaking through the 20 billion GDP threshold just the previous year. A single factory's contribution propelled this county's economic fortunes into uncharted territory.

But what truly set County Magistrate Wang's spirits soaring was that this was only the beginning. The Industry Bureau's forecast hinted at a compelling 50 billion in the factory's second year of operation.

Such figures were dreams materialized, and the transformation was palpable. Gone were the days when the county magistrate found himself on the sidelines during city meetings, trailing behind deputy magistrates from more economically developed counties. Today, Wang Yongwang stood tall, a pillar of confidence. In his recent city meeting, he had been invited to the front seat ahead of leaders, big and small, and this newfound prominence was heady.

His pride was further stoked when the mayor publicly inquired about Jinping County's economic fortunes in a show of support and recognition. Wang Yongwang eloquently narrated the tale, mentioning the No. 2 factory of Universal Semiconductor Company's predicted 40 billion output for the year, possibly soaring to 50 billion the next. The eyes of other county and city leaders sparkled, gleaming with a shade of envy so bright it nearly lit up the room.

Wang Yongwang revelled in this moment, his heart swelling with pride, particularly under the envious gazes of his peers. Returning from the city meeting, he remained immersed in unparalleled happiness.

Amidst processing a stack of documents on his desk, Wang Yongwang leapt to his feet, his voice resonating. "Xiao Yang, arrange my visit to the industrial park."

"Of course, Leader," Xiao Yang, his new secretary, responded promptly. Wang Yongwang's former secretary had been promoted and now served as a deputy in the Industrial Bureau.

In no time, Wang Yongwang's second car whisked him away to the industrial park, accompanied by an entourage of major and minor leaders, as he embarked on an inspection tour of Universal Semiconductor's No. 2 factory.

Regrettably, the inner sanctum of the manufacturing workshop was off-limits due to stringent dust-free requirements, a necessary prerequisite for chip production. Instead, the delegation explored the factory area before convening a meeting in the office building.

During the symposium, Wang Yongwang earnestly inquired if any issues within the factory required his intervention or external coordination. His proactive demeanour didn't go unnoticed. Among all county leaders, only this factory received personalized attention from the county magistrate.

Post-inspection, Wang Yongwang decided not to rush back. Instead, he strolled through the industrial park, conversing with Director Jin. "Director Jin, what about expanding the industrial park by an additional 1,000 mu?"

The audacious proposal stunned everyone present. Wang Yongwang had essentially requested an expansion encompassing a thousand acres with casual ease.

Director Jin, though inwardly awestruck, maintained his composure. After contemplation, he responded, "It's feasible, but we'll need to requisition land, and there's also the matter of flattening the hill nearby."

A small hill in the vicinity would necessitate considerable earthwork to level it.

Undaunted, Wang Yongwang instructed, "Draft a plan, and I'll review it. Let's expand the industrial park by another 1,000 mu."

The leaders at his side were left dumbfounded. County Magistrate Wang seemed poised for substantial action, ready to roll up his sleeves and oversee an ambitious project.

In the towering edifice known as Universal Building, Liu Yong, the mastermind behind Universal Semiconductor, he pondered the location of his forthcoming battery factory. His contemplation weighed the pros and cons of establishing it in Huahai City or one of the surrounding counties and cities.

Huahai City's international allure promised access to talent but came with the burden of high land prices and operating costs. Conversely, the surrounding areas offered lower land costs and potentially lucrative incentives from eager counties and cities looking to attract investments.

Reflecting upon the success of Universal Semiconductor's No. 2 factory in Jinpen County, Liu Yong chose the latter path. He decided to establish his future battery factory in these neighbouring regions. 

Smiling to himself, Liu Yong declared, "Jinpen County is my homeland; let's make a contribution to our own people."

With his decision firm, Liu Yong dialed Wang Yongwang's number. When the call connected, Wang Yongwang's voice exuded elation. "Mr. Liu, what a delightful surprise to receive your call."

In Wang Yongwang's eyes, Liu Yong was the personification of wealth and prosperity, a patron saint of Jinpen County. The No. 2 factory had already become a beacon of hope, increasing the county's GDP and providing numerous job opportunities for its residents. Wages at the factory were respectable, elevating the living standards of local families. This trickle-down effect was substantial; one person's employment rippled to support the livelihoods of thousands if not tens of thousands.

To the ordinary residents of Jinpen County, Liu Yong was their guardian angel, their God of Wealth. A call directly from Liu Yong filled Wang Yongwang with joy and anticipation.

Liu Yong declared, "Mayor Wang, I'll be returning tomorrow."

"That's fantastic news, Mr. Liu. On behalf of our people, I extend a warm welcome," Wang Yongwang responded enthusiastically.

As the call progressed, Wang Yongwang couldn't help but sense there was more to Liu Yong's intentions. His excitement grew, and he wondered if Liu Yong's return to his hometown might signify something more significant.

However, Liu Yong didn't immediately reveal his purpose, leaving Wang Yongwang to speculate eagerly. Eventually, Liu Yong exchanged a few brief words before ending the call.

Wang Yongwang couldn't contain his excitement. His mind raced with possibilities, each more exhilarating than the last. Was it possible that Liu Yong's return heralded more than just a visit to his hometown? The county magistrate pondered this enigmatic turn of events, his heart filled with hope and expectation.
