Despite being incredibly wealthy, I want to be a prosecutor.

Chapter 125 Charity Ambassador



Chapter 125 Charity Ambassador

A black Volkswagen Bora sedan stopped in front of "Yaya Supermarket". Zhou Hong was stunned. The sign for Yaya Supermarket was gone, the supermarket door was locked, and the bungalow was in a mess when viewed from the window.

Suddenly I remembered that I seemed to have seen a report from the Dongshan branch in my email, saying that the branch's "Dongning Office" had moved to a two-story storefront in the square.

Da Lajiao was in charge of stockpiling famous cigarettes and liquors for herself. However, after the establishment of Hongye Trading Branch in Dongshan, an office was set up in Dongning County. Da Lajiao became the office manager, mainly responsible for her affairs in her hometown. Of course, she herself did not know what all this meant. She only knew that her monthly salary had increased again, and now she earned 7 yuan a month. Her husband also joined the branch, earning 3 yuan a month. In addition to stockpiling cigarettes and liquors for herself, the couple also had the job of running errands for her.

A dozen minutes later, Zhou Hong parked his car in front of "Yaya Tobacco and Alcohol Specialty Store" in the square's commercial street. The supermarket was not yet open, and the glass door was locked from the inside. But as soon as Zhou Hong parked, Da Lajiao unlocked it from the inside. Obviously, she had been waiting since receiving the call.

The two-story storefront had little to no wooden decoration; instead, it had ready-made wine cabinets and other furniture, displaying various famous cigarettes and liquors.

The floor is made of cement, and the walls are just painted white; there's basically no other decoration.

Running a small supermarket is very tiring. The tobacco and alcohol items are sold as a side business to help Zhou Hong stock up on goods.

If a couple earns 10,000 yuan a month, they can afford a two-bedroom apartment in the county town in a few months. What more could they want?

Deep down, Da Lajiao isn't someone who enjoys hard work.

The woman, dressed in a bright red jacket and trousers, possessed a rather alluring, voluptuous figure. With a fawning smile, she greeted him, "Chairman Hong, you've arrived!"

After meeting with the branch office leaders, I realized that I could no longer call Zhou Hong "Xiao Hong".

"Which building does my friend live in?" Zhou Hong asked.

The four Hong Kong girls and the twenty-one flowers have arrived in Dongning. They no longer need to stay at the Dongning Grand Hotel, but instead have checked into a two-story house that they have already renovated. However, they don't know how to get there. It was Da Lajiao who arranged it after receiving a notice from the city company.

"I'll take you!" Chili Pepper said hastily, smiling obsequiously as she followed Zhou Hong into the car and sat in the passenger seat. She then asked, "It seems like all the friends you're bringing this time are big Hong Kong stars? One of them looks like Bai Zhier! But she's wearing a mask, sunglasses, and a hat, so I'm not quite sure I recognize her..."

Zhou Hong smiled and said, "Why ask so many questions?"

"Yes, yes..." Big Chili didn't dare to ask any more questions. In the past few months, her mindset had also changed. From "Xiao Hong" to the super rich handsome guy, and now to the big boss who determines the fate of her and her husband, she no longer had the courage to use those little tricks to see if she could seduce the little virgin in her eyes back then.

If the big boss were truly interested in manipulating her, what an honor that would be! He'd probably be so happy he'd lose control of his bladder.

……

After turning around from the plaza residential area, Zhou Hong went to KFC.

When Xiao Bao saw Zhou Hongzhen return, he was so happy that he punched the guy a few times. This guy always disappeared after leaving the group, so it was rare for him to keep his promise.

In particular, Zhou Hong is certainly not short of money, let alone eating KFC, which is considered a relatively high-end option in the county town. For Zhou Hong, it might really be junk food.

But it felt different to rip off Big Dog Cheng and his cousin with Zhou Hong.

However, Zhou Hong was somewhat absent-minded as he ate his hamburger and drank his cola.

I just went to the second floor to see Su Qi and Bai Zhier's living environment; the decoration is quite nice.

But when we came out, the 21-year-old girl chased after us to tell us whether we should take a day off and go to the video arcade tomorrow to discuss booking the whole place and choosing two ladies to record classic movies, or go today?

It was "Sister Tier" who told her about her affairs.

My heart was naturally pounding, but I also felt something was off. Why was bringing the two of them to my hometown just to satisfy some of my perverse desires?

After pondering for a moment, Zhou Hong picked up his bag and went outside. KFC was located at a prime intersection in the county town, with people coming and going. The sky was clear, and Zhou Hong let out a long breath before dialing Zhong Tier's number.

"Sister Tier, I have an idea. I have a Future Charity Foundation in the Northwest. Why don't you, Su Qi, and Bai Zhier be the foundation's brand ambassadors and help promote the charity?" Ignoring Sister Tier's teasing, Zhou Hong blurted it out.

Chung Ti-er immediately became serious and stopped joking. "This is a good thing! That's fine!"

"Then in a few days, you will meet in Tong'an, and I will have the team design the itinerary and activities for those days."

Before hanging up the phone, Zhou Hong recalled, "Your endorsement fee is 100 million US dollars, and theirs is 20 US dollars each."

These days, 160 million RMB is a considerable sum for an endorsement, especially since it's for charity; it's a great way to enhance one's image.

"I don't need it," Chung Ti-er quickly said.

"You know that's not what I meant."

Zhong Tier paused for a moment, then said, "Okay, I know it's the pocket money you gave your sister. Thank you, little brother, husband!" She chuckled and hung up the phone.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhou Hong got into his Bora sedan, sent a text message to Xiao Bao, and drove back to the Plaza residential area.

The phone rang suddenly; it was Chung Ti-er.

"I told Su Qi, and she was overjoyed. Bai Zhier also agreed. I just don't know what her agency will say. Although she signed with Hexing, her former agency has been suing her. But this is a good thing for improving her image, and the endorsement fee is very generous. Mrs. Li won't disagree."

Zhou Hong smiled. Sister Ti'er was understanding; he was too lazy to deal with such trivial matters anyway.

With a slight thought, he looked at the servant module and saw Su Qi appear in the candidate servant column with a colored avatar. On a whim, he moved her into the servant column.

Hmm, not bad. I'm in the third row, in the same category as Kam Sha-zai, and I get ten days' pay.

In this way, they received their annual allowances for the three stages of service: "white service", "regular service" and "clerk service".

There was no "ninth rank" stage, but the "fake festival" gave a double buff, which meant that the annual allowance for the first three stages was doubled, and the daily salary also received a double effect.

Thus, the three BIFFs of "benevolent elders", "thrifty and diligent in managing the household", and "virtuous conduct" have an eightfold effect.

The annual payments for the three phases are $32, $64, and $128, respectively.

Very good. Su Qi only paid $20 for the endorsement, and he received such a return. Not to mention that even if his system identity never upgrades, he can still earn $128 million a year from her.

However, Bai Zhier did not appear in the list of candidates for servants.

Clearly, compared to Bai Zhier, Su Qi's mind is purer. Once she takes my money, she will do things well for me, while Bai Zhier's thoughts are more complicated.

I glanced at the number of people I had rescued, which was over 800. The number of followers I could recruit was over 1600, but I only had about 300 followers in reality.

In reality, recruiting more servants, not to mention that 500 servants can activate Jinshazai's "Impregnable Fortress", will double all the effects of the god-level buff, including the number of activations and the duration.

In terms of economic benefits, even if the servants are the lowest level and only receive a daily wage, with various buffs, their annual allowance is already $128,000, which is already quite extravagant. If you have more than 1000 servants, after deducting their salaries, you would still make tens of millions of dollars in net profit every year.

Yes, it's time to start recruiting followers on a large scale.

……

The townhouse at No. 21, though luxuriously decorated in the county town, has its limits and can't compare to Zhou Hong's mansion in another city, is a small two-story house with a cozy and homey feel.

Su Qi and Bai Zhier were both surprised that Zhou Hong returned so quickly. Of course, they both knew that he must have come to discuss charity endorsements.

"The formal contract will be prepared by the future charitable foundation; you can sign it when you arrive in the Northwest."

Zhou Hong called Su Qi and Bai Zhier into the study on the second floor and gave them a general overview of the charity endorsement.

"Oh..." Zhou Hong took out a Citibank draft for $100,000 and handed it to Su Qi. "This isn't an endorsement fee, it's pocket money from my travels during this time."

"Thank you, Chairman Hong!" Su Qi beamed. Ignoring Bai Zhier's presence, she walked over to take the check and gave Zhou Hong a quick kiss on the cheek.

In fact, Zhou Hong knew that his current status was completely different from simply having money.

For example, a wealthy coal mine owner in mainland China might offer the same $100,000, but he wouldn't receive the same level of treatment from a superstar like Su Qi, who would be so proactive in showing her goodwill in the presence of a third party.

For those in today's entertainment industry, the resources they possess, including their ability to create groundbreaking and impactful films, are extremely formidable.

Take the present moment for example. A charity ambassador, who can easily enhance one's image, can command a higher endorsement fee than many male celebrities. This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to a vast amount of resources.

Even just now, Bai Zhier's gaze towards her had softened somewhat, but upon seeing Su Qi's actions, she turned her head away, and a hint of helplessness returned to her pure and pretty face.

Zhou Hong took out another check and smiled at Su Qi: "I'm not being biased, but Zhi'er is currently embroiled in a lawsuit. Our charity ambassador needs a positive and sunny image, so we need to eliminate any negative factors." He handed the check to Bai Zhi'er, "Your former management company is demanding HK$400 million in compensation, right? Take this and settle it. The lawsuit has been going on for over a year. Even if you're not annoyed, your fans are. Resolve the problem, lighten your load, and a brand new world will begin."

Bai Zhier stared blankly at the amount on the check, somewhat incredulous. "No contract? I can get this money?"

After all, everyone knows what it really means when a godmother asks someone to come and accompany her on a trip; the other party originally didn't have to pay any price at all.

It's a tacit understanding that the other party will invest ten million US dollars into Hexing Entertainment.

Su Qi smiled and said, "Zhi'er, look how much Chairman Hong dotes on you. Hurry up and put it away. The pocket money he gives you is five times what I give him. I'm not happy about that!" She pouted her uniquely charming and sexy lips, which gave her a special kind of allure.

"No, I love you too. It's just that I'm the one who's in court..." Bai Zhier said casually, but realized something was wrong as soon as she finished speaking. Her pure little face turned red, and she lowered her head without saying a word.

A Citibank draft of $50 was just enough to settle her case.

At this moment, Zhou Hong noticed that there was one more person in the list of those to be rescued, and Bai Zhier's colored profile picture also appeared in the list of candidate servants.

With a smirk, he moved to the servants' section and, sure enough, he was in the third row, just like Su Qi.

He invested $600,000 and has already made a net profit of $1 million; the long-term potential is even greater.

Both of her entries are "servant of entertainment".

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Hong added, "However, my foundation's charity ambassadors will have high requirements for the character of their spokespeople. Not to mention before, from now on, we must maintain a good image, including the movies we choose to star in."

"Chairman Hong, what is the scale of your charity foundation? Why are the requirements so high?" Su Qi asked curiously. She wasn't worried about her image, since her persona was about putting her clothes back on one by one, which was very inspiring.

Zhou Hong hadn't really thought about it seriously. After thinking for a moment, he thought, "The global charity factory is currently worth several hundred million Hong Kong dollars. As for the future charity, hmm..." He calculated in his mind that the charity funds for the main region, the ancestral home, and the entire China region are injected into it every year. This year alone, it's a terrifying figure.

Moreover, the airport's plans for charity are even more extravagant, and the final figure could be astronomical.

But if you think about it, as long as you live, the annual funding for the charity factory and future charities, including future upgrades, is actually another kind of unlimited funding, provided you don't sacrifice yourself.

"You can donate over a billion Hong Kong dollars to charity every year, right?" Zhou Hong didn't say much more, so as not to scare the two people in front of him, but he also couldn't belittle his foundation too much, lest his spokesperson take it lightly.

"Over a billion Hong Kong dollars every year?" Su Qi could hardly believe her ears, and Bai Zhier was even more astonished.

The Li couple's net worth is currently less than HK$10 billion. Do they really do charity? They only give away one or two Li families' worth a year?

Zhou Hong smiled and said, "So, we still need to have high standards for our spokespeople."

"Why me... why both of us?" Bai Zhier couldn't help but ask.

Zhou Hong coughed. "Can you say I just make decisions on a whim, doing whatever comes to mind? That's how it is, conforming to the system's logic."

So, you two are just really lucky.

Looking into the two women's clear (and alluring) eyes, which held a hint of expectation, he said earnestly, "Because I like both of you."

Bai Zhier's innocent face showed a slight embarrassment as she turned her head to look elsewhere.

Su Qi scoffed, but her smile remained sweet.

Every human being has the illusion that they might be special in the eyes of others.

"I'm going to the restroom!" Zhou Hong smiled and left.

……

The second floor of the two-story house is laid out as a master bedroom, a secondary bedroom, a study, and a bathroom.

Zhou Hong washed his face and came out of the bathroom, only to see a stunningly beautiful woman with a graceful figure leaning against the wall, none other than Su Qi.

Her alluring posture, leaning against the wall in a long black gauze dress, was captivating and full of charm.

Zhou Hong's heart fluttered. He took two steps forward, embraced her slender and soft waist, and kissed her thick, sexy lips.

Su Qi, who is nearly 1.7 meters tall at 1.68 meters, looks petite in front of Zhou Hong. The saying goes that a wife should not be taller than Zhou Hong's shoulder, and there are indeed very few girls who can reach Zhou Hong's shoulder.

"Mmm..." Su Qi murmured dreamily, her charming eyes filled with intoxication.

Some movie scenes appeared before Zhou Hong's eyes. This charming and sexy superstar, whom he could only imagine before, was now truly in his arms, and he could do whatever he wanted with her. He felt the fire in his heart growing hotter and hotter.

"Ah," Bai Zhier exclaimed softly and retreated back to the study.
