95: Special Edition Blind Box: The Greatest Underground Force!
Following the system's prompt,
the Blind Box lottery interface reappeared before him.
With the same box page, there was nothing to choose from; all selections before the lottery were merely self-comfort.
What he would draw was actually already decided.
Therefore, Zhang Yu didn't dwell on it too much and directly selected a box in the middle.
Then, a golden light flashed before his eyes.
The Blind Box slowly opened, revealing a golden glow from within.
With Lu Hanxiao's ten-star buff applied, what kind of special grand prize would it be this time?
Zhang Yu rubbed his hands, a little excited.
"Congratulations, host!"
The system's voice rang in his ears.
"You've drawn the Special Edition Blind Box — [Xinyi Group]."
Xinyi Group?
What kind of company is this?
Zhang Yu couldn't help but complain in his heart, what kind of special edition reward was this?
Then he suddenly realized.
Holy crap, no way?
Xinyi Group?
He had heard of this name before.
Then, looking at the system's introduction to Xinyi Group, he suddenly understood.
It could be called a company, but in reality, it was the largest underground force in the entire Asia-Pacific Region, disguised as a company!
Not Jiangcheng, nor Longguo.
But the entire Asia-Pacific!
Where there's white, there's black.
And Xinyi Group was the largest syndicate operating in that space.
It covered many industries operating in gray areas, such as Macau's Lisboa, gold mines, nightclubs, earthwork, and various other sectors.
It took a cut from the middle.
Before those businesses and companies could open, they all had to pay respects to Xinyi Group.
It now had influence in every Asia-Pacific country.
Branches were also gradually established on other continents.
The total number of members exceeded 10,000.
It also possessed the most tightly knit underground Dark Web information network spread across various locations; finding someone was a matter of minutes.
Owning such a group meant he wouldn't fear walking sideways (acting arrogantly) when he went out.
Zhang Yu had previously acquired three companies, but they were all related to money.
Although he had connected with Sha Ruikang, there would always be some people who didn't follow the underworld rules and weren't afraid of overt forces.
Now, he had Xinyi Group.
Doing things secretly would be incredibly convenient.
As expected of a BUFF-level Blind Box, this item came at just the right time.
Zhang Yu happily claimed the Blind Box reward.
"Xinyi Group" was officially incorporated under his personal name.
Shortly after he acquired Xinyi Group,
due to time differences, the heads of the largest gray forces in various overseas countries and regions received news that "Xinyi Group" had changed owners at the first opportunity!
"Holy crap, Xinyi Group has changed owners, where do we go from here? Should we give up all our businesses?" said a large family from Myanmar-Vietnam.
"Xinyi Group might reorganize the order of gray forces in the Asia-Pacific. Thankfully, we're across the ocean, so we're temporarily safe!" said the Yamabe-gumi from East Japan.
"Will Xinyi Group threaten our territory?" asked someone from Mexico.
"It's over, it's over. Xinyi Group has secretly been developing in our territory for a long time. This time, they wouldn't want to expand, would they?" said the Italian Black Neck Party.
Now, forces from various regions were shocked by this news.
They felt like they couldn't even sleep peacefully anymore.
When a new boss takes over, don't they usually make a big splash?
Who knew if this fire would burn them?
Xinyi Group was the largest of all forces globally.
They naturally had reservations.
If there were major actions this time, wouldn't it threaten their status?
Who could sit still?
"Quickly go and find out who their new boss is!"
Every force wanted to figure out the background of the new boss, but unfortunately, they couldn't find anything.
This information was like a top-secret.
Yet, such news was released, making everyone uneasy.
On the Dark Web, "Xinyi Group" had a dedicated section where everyone discussed this matter.
Some forces even offered huge rewards, widely recruiting talented individuals to gather information about their new boss.
The Dark Web servers were located on an unknown small island overseas.
The outside world was bright and splendid.
But information on the Dark Web was also flying around.
They didn't interfere with each other.
Such a big event went unnoticed by everyone on Longguo's major online platforms; no one mentioned it, and there was no awareness of it whatsoever.
Because it seemed like something from a completely different world.
The two seemed to be like well water not interfering with river water, yet there was a strange connection.
Perhaps at some point in the future, they would intersect.
At this moment, in Jiangcheng.
Su Guoqiang, who had just finished handling the on-site search and rescue, received a top-secret confidential letter on his way back.
This level of confidential letter was rarely seen even once a year, immediately raising his vigilance.
"There have been changes in the senior management of Xinyi Group; they have a new owner. According to previously held information, Xinyi Group has approximately 300-400 people active in Jiangcheng. Please pay close attention recently and guard against any unusual movements."
Su Guoqiang gasped when he saw this message.
Xinyi Group?
It had existed for thirty or forty years, and no one knew how big they had become.
He knew about this force when he first started working.
However, although Xinyi Group had a long-standing presence in Jiangcheng, they hadn't caused any trouble recently, which allowed him not to overly disperse his energy.
But since he didn't know their true strength, receiving this confidential letter meant he still had to be careful.
No reply was needed; as long as he saw the message, the other party would know he had received it.
He didn't know if Xinyi Group would make any moves this time, or if it would be beneficial or detrimental to him.
It was all unknown.
However, this confidential letter reminded Su Guoqiang of another piece of information.
Master Ma had recently appeared in Jiangcheng.
His influence was also significant; he had a martial arts school and supported a large group of powerful subordinates.
He didn't know what they were up to.
However, this matter also needed attention; special personnel had to be dispatched to monitor their movements.
No trouble could arise.
Over at Binjiang Mansion.
After Zhang Yu claimed his rewards, he saw that it was already three in the morning.
Drowsiness set in; it was time to sleep.
While half-asleep, he heard sounds of tidying up and talking downstairs.
They were likely getting up early for work to catch the first flight.
"Hey, have any of you seen where I put my silk scarf?"
"Why don't you go check your room, and keep your voice down, don't wake the Landlord."
Zhang Yu, half-awake, felt that they were truly considerate.
Then, he unconsciously fell asleep again.
When he woke up again, the sunlight was bright and beautiful.
The south-facing window overlooked the river, offering a beautiful view.
Downstairs, the sounds of cooking could be heard.
