Chapter 2151 The Past Glory of the Yan Clan

"So, they seem quite enthusiastic about cooperating with us?"

Pi Yangyang asked.

Gao Changyuan shook his head slightly, "That's hard to say. Business is all about profit. If someone else can offer them better benefits, they will abandon us and choose that other party."

"You mentioned earlier that besides us, the Miyazaki family from Japan, the Jung family from South Korea, a conglomerate from India, and several European companies are all eyeing this iron ore mine. Have they already gone to West Africa?"

Pi Yangyang thought for a moment and then asked.

Gao Changyuan nodded. "According to the latest information we have, the Miyazaki family has dispatched a negotiation team led by Miyazaki Kotaro, which arrived in the capital of the Republic of Ser last night."

"The South Korean Jung's Steel Group attaches great importance to this negotiation. Its chairman, Jung Ah-kwang, personally led the team and set off today."

"As for India's West Coast Steel Group and a family-owned steel company in Country E, they are expected to arrive today as well."

Pi Yangyang hummed in agreement and casually asked, "A family company in Country E?"

"Yes, it's a ducal family. You should know, it's the family of Duke Myron. It's said that Duke Myron will personally lead the team this time..."

Gao Changyuan nodded and said.

Pi Yangyang couldn't help but smile wryly, "It seems I've met quite a few acquaintances on this trip to Africa."

He certainly remembered the Duke of Myron.

According to Delis, the Duke of Myron was arrogant, conceited, and extremely conceited.

"Jingxi Steel has never had a good reputation, with past reports of commercial fraud, so the iron ore company isn't very interested in them. As for the Myron family, the iron ore company isn't particularly fond of them either. Their country was once colonized by Country E, leaving them living a life without dignity for a long time. This kind of hatred is hard to erase."

Gao Changyuan continued.

Pi Yangyang said calmly, "I understand."

Gao Changyuan said, "Our biggest rival is Kotaro Miyazaki, who is known as a business genius. At a young age, he once managed to negotiate a deal with a long-established European machinery company for the Miyazaki family. This caused a sensation in the business world and was hailed as a business miracle."

A cold glint flashed in Pi Yangyang's eyes, and a thought flickered in his mind. He asked, "Chairman Gao, you should know a little about some of the past events in the capital, right?"

"That depends on when it happened. I went to university in Beijing thirty years ago, and after graduating, I stayed in Beijing to work, and I've been there ever since..."

Gao Changyuan replied.

Pi Yangyang asked, "Are you aware of anything regarding the Yan Group?"

Gao Changyuan was slightly taken aback and turned to look at Pi Yangyang.

He knew perfectly well that Pi Yangyang, who was sitting next to him, was actually the last surviving member of the Yan family.

When Pi Yangyang asked about the Yan family, his expression sharpened, and he fell into reminiscence.

“When I was in college, the Yan Group was the largest private commercial group in the country. The Yan family was also known as the number one wealthy family in China.” Gao Changyuan’s expression clearly showed a hint of respect. “Back then, a few classmates and I even agreed to apply for jobs at the Yan Group after graduation…”

Pi Yangyang's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but ask, "What happened next?"

Gao Changyuan sighed and said, "It's a pity that before we even graduated, the Yan family suffered a tragedy. A fire reduced the Yan family compound to ashes. Several classmates and I were stunned and ran to the scene to take a look. Dozens of lives were lost. It was truly tragic..."

His tone became somewhat somber as he spoke.

Pi Yangyang felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if someone had tugged at it.

"What do you think of the Yan family tragedy?" he asked, suppressing the intense pain in his heart.

Gao Changyuan said, "To be honest, this was actually a tragedy caused by business competition. At that time, the Yan family was too powerful, and not only were many families in China envious and jealous, but many families and conglomerates abroad were also keeping a close eye on them. They tried every means to control the Yan family's capital, but each time they were thwarted by Yan Tianrui, the business genius of the Yan family..."

Pi Yangyang was struck by a sudden thought; it was the first time he had ever heard someone say that his father was a business genius.

"These conglomerates and families have been trying to suppress the Yan family from abroad, attempting to hinder its development. But the more they try, the more rapidly the Yan family grows... Those foreign conglomerates and families that want to divide and weaken the Yan family are simply unable to stop their growth... In the end, even the Luo family was alarmed and drawn into the war to strangle the Yan family."

Pi Yangyang's eyes sharpened, and he said in a deep voice, "So, the Yan family massacre was the work of these foreign conglomerates and families working together?"

Gao Changyuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The outside world's speculation is indeed true, but there has never been any evidence to support it. The Chinese government has conducted in-depth investigations many times, but to no avail. It is said that some martial arts sects in China were so angry that they had a violent conflict with these foreign forces, resulting in countless deaths and injuries... However, this is just a rumor, and it cannot be confirmed whether it is true or false."

Pi Yangyang's eyes flashed with a cold light, but he remained silent.

He was certainly aware that most of these rumors were actually true.

The conflict between the martial arts sects most likely refers to the duel between the Nine Mysteries Sect and the Black God Palace.

After a moment of silence, Gao Changyuan suddenly said, "Chairman Pi, to be honest, I see the same brilliance that Yan Tianrui had back then in you. I firmly believe that the Yan family will surely return to its peak under your leadership."

Pi Yangyang was not surprised; his identity had already been made public, so it was not surprising that Gao Changyuan knew.

"Thank you," he said in a low voice.

Gao Changyuan thought for a moment, then said, "Chairman Pi, there's something I don't know if you know about."

Pi Yangyang said "Oh", "What is it? Tell me."

Gao Changyuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Back then, the Yan Group mainly focused on overseas industries, many of which involved national strategic needs. Therefore, after the Yan family tragedy, our country also suffered considerable losses."

Pi Yangyang suddenly realized, "I understand now. This is why Chairman Gao approached my Yan Group."

"Yes! Actually, this is also the idea of ​​the higher-ups. There are some things that are not convenient for us to be at the forefront of. With your Yan family around, things are often handled more smoothly."

Gao Changyuan smiled and said.

Pi Yangyang smiled and said, "I will do my best."

This reminded him of a private high-tech company in China, which also carried the mission of helping the country return to its former glory. That's why it suffered from the bottomless suppression by Western countries.

Fortunately, this company has a strong backbone. The more it is suppressed, the stronger it becomes. To this day, it has become an unshakable pillar of strength for any country.

He never imagined that the Yan family had been such a family many years ago.

Although the Yan family dodged open attacks, they couldn't escape hidden arrows.

Now that I'm back, I'm determined to bring the Yan family back to its former glory and fulfill the long-cherished wish that my father and grandfather were unable to achieve.

…………

In the Caltranga Hotel in the capital of Serbia, Kotaro Miyazaki stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a glass of whiskey, looking at the waves in the distance and the crowds on the beach, his eyes revealing a sharpness and confidence.

He likes whisky, and only drinks Royal Salute.

He would have a drink, especially before negotiating with others.

In his words, a glass of whiskey can make his mind more active.

He arrived in Karl last night.

This time, he came with a mission from his family to negotiate with Meichuan Iron Mine, determined to take over the mine.

As he was admiring the beautiful legs of various skin tones on the beach, the doorbell rang.

He didn't turn around, but calmly said, "Please come in."

A young girl immediately went to open the door, and a middle-aged man with slicked-back hair strode in.

"Young Master, we just received news that Mr. Gao Changyuan, Chairman of Huaxia Guanghui Group, has personally led a team and flown here. Accompanying him is a young man named Pi Yangyang, Chairman of Yan's Group."

After the middle-aged man entered, he stood three meters behind him and respectfully reported.

When he heard Gao Changyuan's name, Miyazaki Kotaro did not react.

But when he heard the name Pi Yangyang, his hand holding the cup visibly paused for a moment, and then he asked calmly, "Pi Yangyang, chairman of the Yan Group? The Chinese man who injured Youzi?"

"Yes, that's him!"

The middle-aged man answered.

Kotaro Miyazaki smirked coldly. "Perfect timing. I was just thinking about how to avenge Yuko, and I didn't expect him to come here!"

He turned around abruptly, a murderous glint in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Call my grandfather right now, I need to speak with him!"
