When Ling Ya entered the room, she was excited and elated.

She was smiling, and she looked as if saying: Come and praise me!

Young Master Wang truly thought that this girl was amazing.

She had managed to settle all three of her companions without a fuss, yet she was able to resist the temptation of the outside world and cling tightly to his thigh.

How clever!

Well, his thigh didn't seem to be very thick at the moment, but Wang Yan knew that he would grow stronger.

Ling Ya, how intuitive you are?!

TSK! TSK!

Wang Yan smiled and gestured for Ling Ya to sit down. He picked up the wine decanter and asked, "Would you like some wine?"

"Sure!" Ling ya stared at the wine expectantly. "What kind of wine is it, Young Master Wang?"

"1982 Moutong."

As expected, when she heard 1982, Ling Ya immediately thought of Lafite, just as Wang Yan had done.

"Ah! Is it a sub-brand of Lafite or something?"

"It's on the same level as Lafite," Wang Yan explained patiently. "It's also from one of the five major wineries. It's very good."

Ling Ya was relaxed. She curled her lips and complained, "Then its logo is really ugly..."

Wang Yan looked down at the wine label and could not help but laugh.

The label of Moutong 1982 was very... Uh, unique.

The lower half was white, and the top half was a very simple watercolor painting. It depicted a sun, a sheep jumping with its legs open, blue seawater, and a grape leaf in the shape of a continent. A bunch of purple grapes hung under the grape leaf.

Strictly speaking, with today's aesthetic standards, that watercolor picture was even a little ugly.

"It really doesn't look good."

When Wang Yan agreed, he had no idea that there was a group of Moutong fans abroad who thought that the Moutong 1982 label was romantic, and its style was far better than Lafite -- even among all of Moutong's wine labels, it was extremely outstanding.

Among the five first-class Bordeaux wineries, every year, they would use a new label and considered it as their pursuit for arts. But Moutong was different from the others.

What was worth mentioning was that Moutong's '96 wine label and '08 wine label were the works of Chinese painters Gu Gan and Xu Lei respectively. It was obvious that Moutong winery was friendly to China, or rather, it was coveting the Chinese market.

President Albert of Kerry Hotel had his own reasons to to give Wang Yan a bottle of '82 Moutong.

Unfortunately...

It was wasted on Wang Yan.

Ling Ya was even worse than Wang Yan. She took a sip of the wine and stuck out her tongue with a grimace. "Wow! It's so sour!"

She smacked her lips twice and exclaimed again, "Eh? It actually tastes like coffee?!"

She looked very lively and cheerful in this way.

Wang Yan smiled and encouraged her, "Try it again. You have to learn to try all kinds of new things. In the future, you might need to hold a wine glass to discuss business with others."

Ling Ya's eyes immediately lit up.

Wang Yan's subtext was not difficult to understand. Right now, he couldn't say he trust her, but his confidence in her was clearly expressed in his words.

"Good! Then Young Master Wang, you have to teach me. I will work hard!"

Smart child.

Moreover, there was a saying, "A woman who knows how to ask coquettishly gets whatever she wants." Ling Ya's coquettishness finally made Wang Yan look at her more earnestly.

Today, she was wearing a light make-up. Her eyes were sparkling and eloquent. Her entire temperament was leaning towards the energetic Japanese style. She was a little beauty with a score of 85 points.

Right now, her eyes were filled with passion, worship, and careful flattery. It was especially able to ignite a man's sense of achievement and desire to conquer.

Wang Yan guessed that if he took the initiative, it wouldn't take long to get her.

However, the young master would not do that.

It was not a matter of her looks. Even if she was not 85 points but 95, Wang Yan still would not touch her.

Once a cooperative relationship went bad and was mixed with personal feelings, there would be more trouble than benefits.

For a new company that's in the growing period, the leader was the most important factor... If he did something unsavory, the staff would copy him and gossip him, which would destroy everyone's fighting spirit.

One could not indulge in his desires. Once he did it, he would do it again and again and eventually bring down the entire company's ethos.

As a boss, the most he could do was to have an affair with his personal secretary. The subordinates in the company could not be touched. If he really wanted to, he must fire her and keep her in a different environment.

It was a little troublesome, but he'd have less trouble in the future.

Although Young Master Wang did not know anything about corporate management, he knew instinctively that there were some things that he should not do, so his eyes were clear.

"Ling Ya, you are the most promising girl I have ever seen. If you have any ideas in the future, feel free to talk to President Xi. You're all shareholders, so everyone's goal is the same -- to make the company better."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Ling ya nodded vigorously.

Since they were talking about this, she was suddenly a little curious. "Young Master Wang, you really don't hold shares?"

"There are certain things... Once I hold shares, it won't be very convenient for me to do them."

Wang Yan was vague about it, so Ling Ya was still confused.

"Then..." Ling Ya bit her lower lip and hesitated for a moment. "What if something unexpected happens?"

Wang Yan couldn't help but laugh.

Something unexpected?

You probably don't know my abilities...

After taking out 1.5 million, the company's financial situation was completely under the system's control. If any of the money that belonged to me was misappropriated, it would be recorded in the system.

To be honest, if the accountant Wangting Entertainment hired wasn't good enough, when the annual financial report came out, it definitely wouldn't be as accurate as the system's results. Just thinking about it made Wang Yan want to laugh.

That was why Wang Yan wasn't worried at all. Trusting XI Zi was one thing, but the system was another trump card.

Ling Ya didn't understand, so she found Wang Yan even more mysterious.

But it was actually a good thing for Wang Yan.

Those in power should try their best to maintain an image of unpredictability and calmness, so their words would be taken seriously.

Otherwise, if your subordinates found out that you had a lot of bad habits, how could they respect you?

If you were too close to them, they wouldn't be disrespectful. If you were too distant, they would be resentful.

Until the end of their conversation, Wang Yan and Ling Ya still didn't talk about anything serious. However, when Ling Ya left, she felt reassured and was full of confidence for the future.

"I'll do my best!"

"Okay, I'll wait for you to give me a surprise."

"Hehe! See you tonight, Young Master Wang!"

"Bye bye."

After Wang Yan saw her off, he could finally rest for a while.

He lay on the sofa for ten minutes and replayed everything that had happened today in his mind. When he realized that everything was fine, he immediately dragged his exhausted body to the spa.

Kerry's spa and the one in Shangri-la in the capital had the same The content and prices, so he directly got a massage on his sore muscles.

The moment the masseuse started pressing on his muscles, Wang Yan felt so comfortable that he wanted to groan.

Was it tiring to stand in a military posture and do the goose steps?

It depended on how one did them.

For example, part of the goose step was standing on one leg, lifting the other leg without bending the knee and pointing toes straight forward.

If one didn't want to do it properly, then one didn't need to tighten the muscles all over the body and didn't need to keep the instep of the raised leg parallel to the ground. If he relaxed his instep just a little bit, he'd feel much better.

The shoulders, elbows, and waist all required constant exertion of strength. One could relax these parts a little bit, right?

After standing in relaxation for about 30 seconds, one could switch legs when the supporting leg was tired...

In this case, anyone could hold on for a long time.

But what if they were to set the highest standards for themselves?

Their forearms were flat on the ground, and their shoulders were tightly tensed. They squared their shoulders, puffed out their chests, and pulled in their stomachs. All the muscles in their thighs were exerting strength, and the instep of their feet were completely parallel to the ground.

An ordinary person would be tired to the point of trembling after standing like this for more than ten seconds.

Wang Yan was a serious with what he did. Even on the day when he hadn't slept for the previous night and almost got sunstroke, he had trained according to the highest standards.

In the following three days, he had increased his training time and practiced until his legs couldn't lift. The amount of physical exertion he had put in it was unimaginable.

After all, how could the intensity of the military posture training of the national flag class be the same as the military posture training of the recruit class?

Not to mention a physique of only 79 points, even if his physique reached 89 points, he'd still be exhausted!

At the end of the day, the peak of excellence was just the standard of excellence for second-class athletes.

Which of the elites in the physical education institute or the national flag bearer class did not have a physique of 80 + or even 90 + ?

Wang Yan was still far from beating those perverts. The true strength of the god-level tycoon Wang was balance, comprehensiveness, well-roundedness and the ability to maintain his attributes without any training.

His strength didn't lie in one single area.

In fact, he had thought about it before: What kind of sport is most suitable for me?

After thinking for a long time, the conclusion was... mixed martial arts.

Strength, agility, physique and intelligence were all very important, and it was the effect of 1 + 1 + 1 +1> > 4.

For a moment, Wang Yan even considered winning the championship of the world martial arts competition.

But he decided against it in the blink of an eye.

What's wrong with him?

If he was kicked in the balls by someone, wouldn't it hurt?

In the future, he should practice more Japanese judo, Brazilian sliding and bedroom techniques, and so on...

As he thought, a set of deep muscle massage ended and Wang Yan felt that his muscles were even more sore, but a sense of relaxation surged up from the depths of his body.

If he had a good sleep at night, he would be as good as new the next morning.

It was almost 7:20 pm. Wang Yan went upstairs to change his clothes and immediately went to The Cook buffet cafeteria.

7:00 pm was the peak time for dinner in a big city like Shanghai, but there were not many customers in the cafeteria.

In fact, the two restaurants in Kerry didn't have anything special to recommend themselves.

Their positioning wasn't high, but they were still restaurants inside a five-star hotel, so they were stuck in the middle. Their reputation and popularity were not very high.

That was why President Albert was so enthusiastic about the mukbang event.

It was the year 2015, and the concept of online celebrity had already been well-established, but how to promote a business online was still not easy.

Sometimes, with a little hyping, a shop would immediately become popular.

Sometimes, no matter how hard they tried to market it, the effect was not very good.

So they were very frustrated.

President Albert and Manager Madre of Kerry were the kind of people who were very willing to accept new things. They felt that the mukbang event, a novel online activity, was a very good way for promotion, so they gave their full support.

When Wang Yan arrived, Manager Madre was already there supervising everything.

Almost one-third of the space in the big restaurant had been reserved for this event.

The facilities included three open kitchens, too for iron plate dishes, and the other one preparing all kinds of ingredients and side dishes.

The shining logos of the hotel and The Cook's Buffet could be seen everywhere.

The semi-circular dining table was specially assembled, with seven seats on the curved side. Seven mobile phones and seven ipads were fixed on the table.

The cell phones were used to broadcast live, while the ipads were used to watch the bullet comments.

At the same time, Wang Yunxi used Ling Ya's connection to communicate directly with Douyu. He applied for an official live broadcast room for the event to broadcast the overall situation.

It could be predicted that the audience would be split into different rooms for today's event.

However, this was actually a good thing. It would bring more popularity to the event.

Think about it. At least five live broadcast rooms were hung on the front page. They were all ranked high on the popularity rankings, but the live broadcast content was the same. How eye-catching was that?

This was exactly what Wang Yunxi wanted.

As for Wang Yan, the young master only wanted to see the expressions on Ling Ya and the other three eaters.

As for what they ate, it was currently a secret for the contestants. It would only be announced after the live streaming began.

It was a surprise for them, but it was also a surprise for the audience.

As to the other three of the seven contestants, one was recommended by Douyu, one was a newcomer trained by Liu Yuanfang's studio, and the last one was Da Gang's younger townsman.

The contestants were already sitting at the table, doing the final adjustments and makeup.

Adai saw Wang Yan and was about to stand up to greet him.

However, Young Master Wang gestured her to remain seated. He shook his head telling her silently to continue with her work.

In less than two seconds, Madre also saw Wang Yan and immediately led a middle-aged woman dressed in a suit to welcome him.

The lady's surname was Liu, and she was the vice president in charge of catering and services. She was in charge of spa, fitness center, restaurants, bars, and VIP lounges.

After they exchanged a few pleasantries, Zhang Delei immediately came over, too, followed by Liu Yuanfang, a middle-level operations manager of Douyu, the heads of two guilds, as well as Wang Yunxi and a well-known event host in Shanghai.

Hmm, he felt like a big shot...

However, Young Master Wang didn't really like this kind of treatment.

Could they just go back to what they were supposed to be doing?

However, Wang Yan didn't need to say anything. After all, the people whose positions were not high enough to talk to him wouldn't come up and start an awkward conversation anyway.

After exchanging a few simple pleasantries with President Liu and President Zhang, Wang Yan immediately walked to a corner in a very low-key manner and sat down quietly. Only Wang Yunxi stayed with him.

"Why is Liu Yuanfang here?" Wang Yan asked casually.

"I can't offend that Principal Wang."

Wang Yunxi explained very seriously, "He is determined to do the business of live broadcasting, so there might be a time for us to have dealings with him in the future. Moreover, he asked Liu Yuanfang to pass on a message to me, saying that he welcomes us to join them."

"Why would we join them?" Wang Yan shook his head disapprovingly.

"Yes. Anyway, it's just a quota. We can give it to anyone. If Principal Wang appears today and gives a reward to his people, it will increase our popularity. It's a sure win!"

"It's okay. For such a decision, you can make it on your own."

Then a thought occurred to Wang Yan. Huh? Would Wang Siming do some hyping by giving that "Meat-loving Bunny" a tip?

If it was done appropriately, it would be a win-win situation.

And if not?

Hey, I have to be cautious, just in case...
