Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!

Chapter 512: Building the Tower



In the past two years, whoever lives in Jinling, whether they are studying or doing business there, feels like every now and then, they hear the name Zhou Yuwen.

Everyone has different perceptions of Zhou Yuwen. Some students might still think Zhou Yuwen is just a novelist.

But in the past couple of days, the most talked-about topic at school was.

Hey, have you heard about that Zhou Yuwen from the neighboring college?

The one who writes novels?

I heard he spent 1.3 billion yuan for a piece of land near the Olympic Sports area.

"How much?"

"1.3 billion yuan!"

"Oh my, where did he get so much money?"

Indeed, as fellow students, it's hard for them to imagine; at the start of freshman year, he was just like them wearing camouflage uniforms, and they even sang together during military training at night.

But in the blink of an eye, Zhou Yuwen seems to have become someone they don't recognize anymore.

Shortly after the land deal, Zhou Yuwen's company held a press conference, announcing the upcoming construction of an office building. In Zhou Yuwen's words, Jinling is like his second hometown; this land witnessed his growth, and he surely wishes to contribute to it.

For this auctioned land, he plans to invite renowned architects from abroad for the design, striving to create a unique office building with its own corporate culture. Meanwhile, the company will publicly invite bids from all capable and qualified construction companies.

Our company's motto is to be people-oriented, and we hope talented individuals pay attention to our company. Currently, we are in the growth phase and need a lot of like-minded people to join us.

Zhou Yuwen acted very humbly during the interview, and didn't forget to boost his company's profile, after all, once the office building is constructed, it'll surely become a representative of Jinling's internet enterprises.

After the news release, Zhou Yuwen's company indeed received contacts from both known and unknown individuals, some from construction businesses, others who saw the potential in the company and wanted to join.

The most shocked about Zhou Yuwen wanting to build a high-rise would probably be the business people in Jinling. After all, in this world, many people start businesses daily, yet with so much hustle and bustle, for every person rising, another falls, these are way too numerous.

But for someone to say they're building a skyscraper, bolstering their reputation, there are only a few.

It's like Zhou Yuwen abruptly announcing he'll build his own office building, at the very least confirming he has official backing, ensuring his future as an indispensable part of the Jinling Business District.

However, Zhou Yuwen's experience is truly astonishing to people.

Some people still think of Zhou Yuwen as—

"Zhou Yuwen? Oh, isn't he the Jiang family's son-in-law? Isn't he only twenty? How is he building a skyscraper? Is the Jiang family supporting him this much?"

"What? He fell out with the Jiang family?"

"Is he building the skyscraper himself?"

"If so, maybe I should make contact..."

Many still remember him as Jiang Xinyi's boyfriend. Honestly, when Liu Jing introduced Zhou Yuwen to her business circle friends, some were really surprised, as he was so young, it felt like a capricious act. And now, upon seeing the news, these people must be even more shocked.

Amid their astonishment, they want to get to know Zhou Yuwen. After all, once the skyscraper is completed, Zhou Yuwen won't be just some dependent son-in-law hiding behind others but truly one of the representatives of the Jinling Business District, only 20 years old. Give him a few more years to develop, and he might dominate Jinling!

Recently, Zhou Yuwen has been inundated with invitations; various TV stations inviting him for exclusive interviews, even CCTV wishes to do a special on him, akin to the successful 'Bookworm Jack Ma' a few years back, showcasing Zhou Yuwen's entrepreneurial journey to a national audience.

Moreover, local organizations from his hometown have also been calling him; some are investment invites, others are schools wanting Zhou Yuwen to cut ribbons, including his elementary school.

The vice principal of his elementary school, who was also his class teacher then.

Honestly, Zhou Yuwen has forgotten about this person, surprised he could find his number. After a brief chat, his elementary teacher told Zhou Yuwen they always felt he was different from other students.

"You are the most outstanding student I've ever taught."

Zhou Yuwen smiled faintly at this and said, thank you, teacher, it's because of your guidance that I am where I am today.

After the pleasantries, they started discussing the main topic.

Zhou Yuwen replied that he'd have to see about it, as he has been too busy lately.

He promised to visit once he had time.

"Oh, then please contact me once you have time!"

"Okay."

Before this call ended, another call came in.

It's like Zhou Yuwen has been bombarded to the point of annoyance, and his parents who still live in the hometown are no exception.

Zhou Yuwen's father seems to be fine with it, as he works in a formal institution.

At most, his colleagues would joke.

For example, hey, Old Zhou, your son isn't quite right, after finally making it big, why build the skyscraper in Jinling, with such a good thing, why not think of the hometown folks?
