The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 170



Some female celebrities started staring at David while daydreaming.


'Sugar Daddy! Sugar Daddy dreams!'


“You praise me too much, Miss Winters. I'm just doing my part to help as much as I can. In terms of singing, my amateur abilities can hardly be compared to a professional like you!” david said humbly.


“You are too humble, Mr Lidell!”


“David! How did you get here? My mom's looking for you everywhere!” Celia happened to come.


“Wow! Are you Empress Elsa?” exclaim Celia shocked.


“Mr Lidel, who is this?” ask Elsa.


“Oh, this is my girlfriend, Celia!” David answered.


Celia's cheeks blushed red upon hearing David's introduction. This was the first time David had introduced her as his girlfriend. At the same time, she also wanted to cry. He had waited for this moment for so long.


“Halo, Celia!” Elsa reached out to shake hands.


“Halo, Miss Elsa!”


Celia reached out her hand to shake Elsa's hand. Zoro's eyes sparkled when he saw Celia, but faded again when he heard David's introduction to them just now.


However, Zoro is no match for the heir to a wealthy family like David. Not to mention the handsome and walking David with the aura of a successful man. As such, Zoro was unable to compete with David in both appearance and character.


Celia and Elsa spoke happily. Elsa is one of her favorite celebrities and this is the first time she has met in person


direct. Of course, there were many things Celia wanted to say to Elsa. Meanwhile, David standing beside them was unable to interrupt.


There were quite a few celebrities in the place, but Elsa was the only one she knew, and she didn't talk much to strangers. Other female celebrities were very interested in David, and they tried to find a way to talk to him.


“David, Celia, why are you two still talking to celebrities here? Come here, there's someone important I need to introduce to you.” Mindy also came to look for them.


“I don't believe you, Celia. I told you to come and find David, not stay here and talk to celebrities. Come with me, you will have time to talk to them later.”


Then Mindy dragged Celia away while David followed behind speechlessly. Mindy's reaction was not as she had expected.


Instead of asking if they knew these celebrities personally, he considered them talking to celebrities as big fans. However, they had yet to leave the hall when a voice sounded.


“Goodnight, business friends Capital! I'm Zayne Yurik, sponsor of tonight's meeting.”


David and the other two stopped walking and looked towards the sound.


A man in his sixties stood on the hall stage with a microphone in his hand.


Everyone stopped talking when they heard Zayne and started to gather around the stage. Zayne is a well-known figure in the Capital business industry. As the sponsor of tonight's meeting, no one dared to ignore him.


“The essence of today's meeting is not only an opportunity for everyone to meet and talk to each other but also because there is someone I want to introduce to all of you.”


Then someone went up on stage. David sees the man and realizes that it is Hugo, the head of the East League International Invesment team.


‘Good!'


He was surprised to learn that the East League had established relationships with leading figures in the Capital business industry so quickly. This means he can spend money faster from now on.


David's slight displeasure at being dragged and introduced to various people by Mindy instantly brightened and he could almost see countless fancy point figures waving at him to get close.


“Allow me to introduce you all, this is Hugo Carlos, head of the East League Invesment team in the Capital. Many of you may not know about the East League in the Capital, so let me introduce you. They were behind the huge donation of a hundred billion dollars that was used to build schools in poor mountainous areas.”


The crowd below the stage started to bustle chatting amongst themselves as soon as they heard Zayne. They may not know about the East League in the Capital, but they have heard about the hundred billion dollar donation used to build the school.


The fact that the company can have the word “financier” in its name also means that it has a net worth of at least a trillion dollars. This is an implicit rule in the business world.


Businesses worth less than a hundred billion can only call themselves “company”. Those worth between a hundred billion to a trillion are called “group”. Which is worth between one trillion to five trillion is called “financier”. And those worth more than five trillion are called “konglomerat”.


This has been agreed among business industries all over the world. This allows people to understand the general picture of the size of the business from its name. Businesses large enough to be conglomerates are influential enough to control their local economy.


“East League Capitals may be young, but it has amassed a net worth of over a trillion dollars in just a few months. They are business miracles. Now, let Hugo here say a few words.”


“Good night everyone. I'm Hugo, head of the East League Capitals investment team. East League Capitals is a business full of passion, energy and hope. The reason behind our remarkable achievements in such a short period of time is entirely attributed to the thoughtful leadership of our chairman. East League Capitals plans to shift its focus to the international metropolis of the Capital. So if anyone present here has a good project they need for investment, feel free to look for us. As our chairman has often said, it is better to misinvest than to lose a company with great potential. Thank you all!”


Countless applause rang out below the stage after Hugo finished speaking. David's cheeks frowned slightly as well upon hearing the applause. He felt somewhat embarrassed when Hugo linked the success of the current East League Capitals to his thoughtful leadership.


After all, all he did was give them money. The management of East League Capitals has always been under Pearl. Plus, he doesn't remember ever saying that he would rather misinvest than lose a potentially large company.


If he ever did, he doesn't remember at all. It was at this moment that he realized just how big the East League Capitals company had become. It's worth over a trillion now. When he had only ever spent around a few hundred billion. Now that he thought about it, he realized that he had made quite a profit.


At this moment, Mindy walked over to David and Celia.


“Did you see it? That's Hugo Carlos, the man I'd like to introduce you both to. He's a very important person, with a lot of cash. East League Capitals spent hundreds of billions in the Capital over the past month, and they are also the second largest shareholder in the Beautiful Group after me. Be respectful when you talk to her later, okay?"


“Yes, Bu.”


“Yes, Lady Young.”


Celia and David answered simultaneously.


David doesn't expect Hugo to be the one Mindy wants to introduce them to. If that was the case, he wouldn't have to look for Elsa at all. All he had to do was wait, and Mindy would know for herself his true wealth.


“HC Property Group will cooperate in depth with East League Capitals this time to strive to achieve even better results! Of course, anyone with a great project that needs investment can also look for the East League. After all, they were very rich and were not at all stingy with their investments. Alright, now that I have said what I want, I will leave all of you to continue your conversation. Have a nice evening, everyone!”


With that, Zayne stepped off the stage with Hugo. The guests in the hall continued to talk to each other. Mindy then takes Celia and David to look for Hugo. Just to realize that Hugo and Zayne had gone to a room backstage to discuss something important. The three of them had no choice but to wait outside.


More than ten minutes later, Hugo showed no sign of coming out. Mindy goes to talk to her acquaintances, but before that she tells David to stay close so she can look for them again when necessary.


As soon as Mindy leaves, David pulls Celia backstage.


“Where are we going, David?”


“There's someone I want you to meet.”


Then David immediately pushed open Hugo's door and pulled Celia into the room. Inside the room, Hugo was discussing the details of the business cooperation with Zayne when David and Celia suddenly entered. Hugo and Zayne stopped talking to look at these two younger people.


“I have a proposal that I would like to discuss with Mr. Hugo.” David said straightforwardly.


Zayne looked at David speechlessly. He wondered who David was and why he was so disrespectful, barging into the room without knocking on the door at all. David must have seen that Zayne and Hugo were talking, yet he barged in without thinking.


Zayne was about to expel David when Hugo spoke.


“Mr Yurik, I will look for you later to discuss the details of the cooperation. Can you give us some time? There's something I want to discuss with this young man.”


Zayne didn't understand what was going on. Their cooperation involves tens of billions of dollars, but Hugo seems to care nothing about it at all. Hugo acted as if talking to this rude young man was more important than their cooperation.


Despite her confusion, Zayne agrees to leave because Hugo has asked for her and she does not want to disappoint such a powerful potential business partner.


“Alright, Mr. Carlos. In that case, I will host some guests outside.” replied Zayne.


“Thank you, Mr. Yurik!” Hugo was grateful.


Zayne got up to leave and glanced at David as he passed by David as if trying to recall this disrespectful young man.
