Chapter 520: David Young of Yuho Has Arrived
A Gulfstream aircraft took off from San Jose International Airport in the United States, bound for Shanghai, the largest coastal city in the Eastern superpower.
The passenger on board was David Young, the founder and current CEO of Yuho, a company now known as a household name in the global internet world.
Perhaps that person is like that too!
Perhaps due to the high pressure inside the cabin, or perhaps because the journey would take fifteen or sixteen hours, David Young felt a headache coming on and kept rubbing his temples.
Seeing him like this, his assistant asked with concern, "Boss, are you feeling unwell?"
"Sir, the air pressure inside the cabin is equivalent to an altitude of 2,000 meters on the ground, which may make you feel a little uncomfortable. We can provide you with pressure equalization earplugs to relieve this symptom, or you can increase the frequency of drinking water to relieve the symptom."
The flight attendant smiled and replied, "Okay, please wait a moment!"
This young man, who became a new richest man in the United States in just a few years, only drinks this glacial water. Although it costs as much as $100 a bottle, it is nothing to this billionaire. However, for an ordinary family, the money this rich man spends on water for a month is enough for them to live comfortably for three or four years.
The plane is currently flying smoothly in the stratosphere, where there is no atmospheric turbulence, so the flight is very stable.
After he sat down, he asked his assistant, "Locke, is the itinerary arranged after we arrive in Shanghai?"
"Boss, everything is arranged. The hotel will send a car to pick us up after we arrive."
The plane landed at the newly opened Shanghai Pudong International Airport at 11:10 a.m. local time. The group completed the customs procedures in just ten minutes, which is probably one of the conveniences of private jets!
The Hilton Hotel, which they had booked, arranged for a Rolls-Royce and three minivans to pick them up and take them to the hotel, as requested by the guests.
This relatively young city, compared to China's five-thousand-year history, presented David Young with its unique character.
It was midday in Shanghai, and the streets were bustling with traffic. The most common mode of transportation was the bicycle, a scene David Young had only ever seen in photographs published by Western photojournalists.
Most of the cars on the road were old models that had long been phased out in Germany, but they had been revitalized here. Most of the taxis David Young saw were of this brand.
However, he found the red, green, and blue buses quite interesting, especially the trolleybuses with two big braids on their roofs. What was particularly unique was that when these buses were about to arrive at the station, someone would lean out of the window, waving a small red and green flag while blowing a whistle.
The people who had been waiting for a long time rushed on board, while the passengers who originally wanted to get off were blocked on the bus. The person waving the small flag kept cursing something under her breath, but she did not forget to guide the people away. Finally, the bus, which was packed like sardines, drove away. The passengers who missed this bus could only wait for the next bus to arrive.
After receiving the instructions, the driver immediately changed direction and headed towards Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. The journey via the elevated road was smooth, and he arrived at his destination quickly.
It was noon, and many students were coming and going at the school gate. David Young wanted to see for himself what the university where Huang Xiaochuan worked was like, so he walked across the road to the school gate.
Seeing this, his assistant quickly followed behind with several bodyguards.
So his assistant also served as a translator, though he had a very strong accent.
Furthermore, China's internet development is progressing very rapidly, with the number of users increasing at an astonishing rate every month. This is why Soso.com was valued by American investors and was able to go public so quickly.
Just then, Sang Weihong and Ma Yifeng were planning to eat out of school. They were getting tired of eating in the school cafeteria all the time, so they would occasionally go out to eat to change things up. Now, they could afford it, and thanks to the training program, they had become one of the first couples to get rich.
As the two passed the school gate, they heard someone asking about Huang Xiaochuan. They stopped and looked in the direction of the voice. They saw four people, two of whom were foreigners, tall and strong, standing silently by the roadside, but their eyes kept looking around, appearing very alert. The person asking about Huang Xiaochuan looked like a Chinese person, but his accent was a bit strange.
Sang Weihong looked in the direction Ma Yifeng pointed, but after a while, she couldn't place it and shook her head: "I don't recognize it."
After saying that, she pulled Ma Yifeng and continued walking out of the school. Sang Weihong had only eaten an egg and a glass of milk that morning, and now she was starving.
As Ma Yifeng walked, he continued to ponder the person he had seen. Who was this person? Why couldn't he remember?
Suddenly, Ma Yifeng slapped his forehead and exclaimed, "No way?"
