Nathan’s knack for spoiling the atmosphere was truly remarkable. It was no wonder that so many people loathed
him to the point of feeling intense irritation.
Gussie was taken by him into the field, and she sat down beside Wendy. Soon after, Natasha and the rest of the
group also
arrived in the field.
At last, the fundraising ceremony had commenced!
The provincial chief took the stage, delivering a speech about the progress of Neva Province in recent years, and
expressing his gratitude to the entrepreneurs in attendance.
Following the official address, David highlighted the key issue, proclaiming, “It is evident that Neva Province is still
lacking in foreign investment. Consequently, the provincial government has decided to take the following steps
after this meeting…”
“In order to facilitate the transportation of large goods, Neva Province is rapidly advancing its economic
development with the construction of a deepwater port in East Bay.”
“The grand total for the deepwater port project is a whopping 14 billion!”
Upon hearing David’s announcement, everyone was left breathless.
Neva Province was a major economic powerhouse, and the provincial government had ample funds, so there was
no need to worry about a shortage of money for the construction of the provincial government.
“The provincial government is eager to collaborate with all the entrepreneurs present in the construction of
Deepwater Port,
of course.”
“We’re organizing a fundraising conference,”
“Attracting top–tier foreign companies to invest in this investment conference will be key to securing the resources
needed for the Deepwater Port construction project!”
Upon David’s conclusion, the audience erupted into a round of applause.
It was impossible not to show respect for the provincial chief’s speech, the audience clapped with all their might.
Nevertheless, they still had to put in some effort to make their applause heard.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe subsequent leaders ascended the stage to expound upon the trajectory of Neva Province’s future growth.
Once the address had concluded, they arrived at the crux of the matter, to draw in investment!
Entrepreneurs had pre–arranged meetings with executives from foreign companies, who were eager to come to
Hechland to
conduct business and invest.
Despite this, David’s brow remained furrowed. The reason was simple, the companies in question lacked the
necessary clout and resources to make a meaningful investment.
Nathan said to Wendy, “Then I’ll head over first. Bogdanov has already agreed to invest 200 million dollars. There
shouldn’t be more people at the scene than him.”
David found it hard to satisfy his craving with the limited investment of only a few million or tens of millions in
Hechland’s
currency from foreign entrepreneurs.
As Nathan took two steps forward, Wendy nodded in acknowledgment. He then noticed that Natasha had already
brought
Shevchenko to the forefront.
“Mr. Young, this is Mr. Shevchenko, the boss of Nievic’s Wisdom Technology Group. He has been invited by me to
visit Neva Province for an investment,” Natasha introduced to David.

Upon hearing this, David was instantly invigorated. Wow, Wisdom Technology Group! Such a renowned high–tech
firm!
If Wisdom Technology Group were to invest in constructing a factory in Neva Province, it would be a great
opportunity for the region to gain recognition. Furthermore, their investment would be substantial!
David greeted Natasha and Shevchenko with a warm smile, shaking hands with each of them in turn. He then
bearned at Shevchenko and said, “It’s a pleasure to have you here, Mr. Shevchenko!”
He observed that Shevchenko’s face was swollen and the corner of his mouth was decayed, suggesting that he had
been subjected to a beating.
He was stunned. Could there be anyone who would dare to challenge someone as influential as Shevchenko?
Natasha fixed Nathan with a sneer of disdain, her expression making it clear that he was finished.
“Get ready to make trouble? Then don’t blame me for not getting a single cent from your Porter Group in
Deepwater Port project!” Nathan saw Natasha’s expression and knew that she was going to make trouble, and he
could not help but sneer.
Wendy and Gussie also saw this scene and couldn’t help but worry.
After all, Shevchenko’s face had been beaten like this by Nathan. If he was willing to invest, then he would be Neva
Province’s honored guest.
He was apprehensive that David would not decline his request for assistance in punishing Nathan if he were to ask
the provincial governor and David at that time.
“Ms. Wendy,” Gussie queried with a hint of apprehension, “shouldn’t it be alright? After all, Mr. Evans has managed
to attract a top–notch investor like Bogdanov. Surely, Bogdanov’s influence must exceed Shevchenko’s, no?”
“It shouldn’t be an issue, Secretary Reagan,” Wendy said calmly. “Mr. Evans has his own plans.”
Despite Nathan’s sometimes outlandish methods, she still had a great deal of faith in him. His ability to consistently
reach his objectives was proof enough that he was far from ordinary.
“Ms. Porter is truly remarkable,” exclaimed the speaker, “for she managed to invite the boss of Nievic’s Wisdom
Technology, Shevchenko!”
“Boasting a wealth of resources and a formidable history, Nievic’s Wisdom Technology has established a monopoly
on the natural gas of the northeastern highlands, leaving our prospects already looking slim.”
“Ms. Porter being a friend of General Perkins, who has a powerful background, explains why it’s not unusual for him
to assist her in contacting such a person.”
“It appears that the Giradia Group is destined for a devastating loss this time. The two billion dollars that Nathan
invested will eventually be consumed by the Porter Group alliance.”
Everyone shook their heads in disbelief. They were overwhelmed by Natasha’s strength and felt powerless to
compete with
her.
“Forget it, with Ms. Porter here, let’s not even consider taking the lion’s share. As long as we can get a piece of the
pie, that’ll be just fine!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes, although we may not be able to acquire the lion’s share, it’s still feasible to make tens of thousands of
dollars!”
It seemed inconceivable that the major stake of the Deepwater Port would not be in the hands of Porter Group, until
Shevchenko showed up.
“What has become of the Giradia Group? Could it be that they are unable to attract any noteworthy foreign
investors?”
“It appears that the Giradia Group is facing both internal and external issues of such severity that one wonders how
they could

possibly ‘invite any powerful enterprise‘?”
“Hahaha, it’s a blessing that you can’t invite him. I’ve invested more than ten million in the Porter Group alliance, so
when the time comes, I’ll get my cut!”
All eyes were on Wendy, motionless in her seat, and it was clear that the Giradia Group had reached its limit.
Natasha had already spun around to converse with David, her thoughts turning to Nathan’s foolishness. “That fool
Nathan,” she thought, “he had the gall to beat up Bogdanov’s secretary, Evanoff, and then Shevchenko like this!”
“Bogdanov won’t let this slide, soon enough, Shevchenko will take the initiative to bring it up.”
“I’m eager to witness how he’ll make his exit when the time arrives!”
“This time, even if he escapes death, he’ll still be left with a nasty scar!”
Shevchenko raised the issue of his beating on this occasion. Despite David’s desire to assist Nathan, it was
impossible for him to do so. He had to make a just ruling.
Otherwise, this public sentiment may not be placated.
“Invited by Ms. Porter to visit Neva Province, we – Wisdom Technology Group found the policies and environment
here to be highly conducive to our investment in the construction of a factory.”
“Therefore,” Shevchenko declared, “I intend to invest 200 million in Neva Province, setting up a company and
constructing a factory. In this way, I will not only make money, but also contribute to the development of Neva
Province.”
