When he relayed this matter later, it was indeed as he had expected. Everyone in the company was filled with joy. They even took out champagne for the next successful banquet. Presumably, there was nothing happier than working hard and being rewarded. What Lu Ming Corporation did was in the news.

For a time, Lu Ming Corporation’s stock prices soared. Not only did its market value increase by several folds, but its reputation was also well-received! The group of people who were always sarcastic previously seemed to have completely disappeared! However, it made sense. If anyone still tried to defame Lu Ming Corporation, they would probably have to bear the risk of being mocked by the crowd.

Therefore, whether they were willing or not, they had no choice but to shut their mouths. Then they watched helplessly as Lu Ming Corporation quickly became the leader of the industry and even had an unshakable position! The other companies also looked up to it.

The next day, the old leader was wearing a white singlet and fanning himself with a fan. The wooden rattan chair brought him some coolness, along with the morning breeze. It was so comfortable! He leisurely turned on the television and the first thing he saw was the female host of the national television broadcasting the news.

“… According to the news from the reporters, Shi Xiong, which is in the middle of the epidemic, has already begun to improve. It has gradually opened the entrances and exits of the various districts. The other places are also moving in a good direction. The biggest contributor to all of this is Lu Ming Corporation that created This Place No. 3. So why did they suddenly do such a thing?

“We specially interviewed its employees and found out that Mr. Lu Ming donated the supplies and special medicine to the epidemic area for free. As for his goal, it was very simple. He wanted to do his best to protect ordinary people. Such spirit is worthy of our praise. At the same time, there were also many regional reactions such as giving Mr. Lu banners and so on.

“The authorities will of course give him corresponding commendation. The exact details will be announced in a few days…”

With a click, the remote control fell to the floor. The old leader looked at the familiar face on the screen in confusion. In the next second, he laughed out loud and sighed. “I was wondering why that old fellow Tang Mingkun suddenly asked me to open up the transportation channel in those places. So it was Little Ming’s idea! This is a great thing!”

Nowadays, there were not many people who did practical things, especially when it came to being generous. With a rough estimate, those supplies and special medicine would cost at least a billion! If they did not have the confidence, they would not dare to do such a thing!

His good friend’s judgment of people was too good, right? He couldn’t help but shake his head. Speaking of which, he had to thank Lu Ming for his efforts. Otherwise, this matter would implicate the officials sooner or later. At that time, the officials’ reputation would definitely be damaged. It seemed that he didn’t have to think too much about that matter. With Lu Ming joining, things might go smoother.

Just as he was thinking this, two heavy and light footsteps could be heard. Tang Mingkun walked over slowly in a Chinese tunic suit, followed by Lu Ming in a white shirt. The two of them had smiles on their faces at the same time. From afar, they looked like father and son.

The former’s attention was instantly attracted by the television. A hint of understanding flashed across his eyes. “It seems that you already know. I didn’t know how to say it! Look, Little Ming said that he wanted to thank you, so we specially woke up early today.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ming walked forward and said, “If it weren’t for your help this time, I don’t think it would have gone so smoothly. If it was a normal process, I don’t know how long my batch of supplies would have been stuck. Perhaps by the time we passed through, the disaster area would have become a dead city. Thank you for your generous help.”

......

The more humble he was and the more he did great things, the more the old leader liked him.

“What are you saying? I have to thank you for your contributions. Don’t worry! I’ll definitely get those people to give you a good outcome this time. In my opinion, I have to hold a meeting to praise you! You didn’t tarnish your godfather’s reputation. As expected of a junior I think highly of! Come and sit down.”

He did not hide his admiration and said mischievously, “You made a lot of money this time, right? With the current momentum of Lu Ming Corporation, if you have ambition, you should develop abroad, right? It’s not impossible for you to gain a foothold in a short period of time. Perhaps Pfizer can help you.”

After all, it wasn’t his territory outside. If something happened, he couldn’t resolve it with just a few words. However, he knew very well that Lu Ming’s ambition was far more than that, so why should he restrain him? In fact, what he wanted to see was an eagle spreading its wings.

[How to deal with all the benefits of this epidemic, please make the following choices:

Option 1: Put it in the vault. Reward: A recipe that collects the essence of a hundred families.

Option 2: Think about it again. Reward: AI with an introductory guide to manufacturing.

Option 3: Be kind and donate a portion of the profits to the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. Reward: Building 1 of the United States Global Trade Center.]

He had already thought of what to do with this money. Hence, Lu Ming chuckled and said, “Although I do have this plan, I don’t think now is the best time. Therefore, I want to donate a quarter of it to the current epidemic prevention work. Without the support of the people, Lu Ming Corporation wouldn’t have reached this stage, so it’s time to give back to society.”

This answer was beyond everyone’s expectations. Tang Mingkun was immediately stunned on the spot, and the old leader’s expression was clearly a little strained. In fact, when he told the company’s higher-ups about this, they also revealed similar expressions. Probably no one expected him to do this, right?

“I have no intention of becoming a vampire. Besides, this will improve the public’s impression of Lu Ming Corporation. To me, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.”

Vampires were equivalent to capitalists. This statement amused the two old men. They didn’t expect that at such an old age, they would still see young people with such foresight. They were even more powerful than them. Impressive! At least they could be sure that at this age, they definitely couldn’t do this!

This also made the old leader look forward to the future that Lu Ming was creating. He exclaimed, “Your shrewdness is even better than your godfather’s! To be honest, if he hadn’t struck first, I would have taken you in as my godson! Aiya, why did Old Tang pick you up?”

Tang Mingkun immediately retorted indignantly, “Why? Are you playing favorites?”
