Rebirth: I have Monopoly System

"Now *that’s* a rich guy from Huaxia with a conscience!"

"Willing to pay a high price for the chairman’s personal contact info!"

"Ahhh~ I think I’m in love with this chairman, Wu Yun!"

"Guy above me is a slob picking his feet! Confirmed!"

.....

In any case, many netizens now knew the name of Chairman Wu Yun.

People who knew Wu Yun’s identity started flooding him with messages and calls, trying to cozy up to him, ask for favors, or propose collaborations.

「Rongcheng. A certain residential complex.」

Wang Hao answered the phone with a smile. "Hello! This is President Wu’s secretary. How may I help you?"

"Oh! This is President Wu’s work line now. Please state your business, and I’ll report it to him when he returns."

....

Wang Hao hung up and let out a long sigh. Since it was his boss’s personal phone, he couldn’t just switch it to airplane mode. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and answer every call. He jotted down the important messages and callers, preparing to report everything to Wu Yun once he returned to Rongcheng.

Ever since he’d been given Wu Yun’s phone, he’d finally gotten a glimpse into the wild lives of the rich.

He didn’t dare look at Wu Yun’s old WeChat messages, but he had no choice but to answer the endless stream of phone calls.

Some women would call and immediately greet him with "Darling," which scared Wang Hao so much he’d have to hastily explain the situation.

Of course, many people wanted to ask Wu Yun out. Some even invited him to play a round of Fight the Landlord.

You can imagine their disappointment when they learned the number was now a work line.

...

Wu Yun had blown up, and it happened so fast it caught him completely off guard.

The next morning, after breakfast, Wen Meng held up her phone and said cheerfully, "Junior! You’re trending!"

"Where? Let me see!?" Lai Yi put down the ration biscuit she was gnawing on and craned her neck to see.

Lai Yi read the trending Weibo topic aloud: "Wu Yun: Who is this mystery man?!"

The publicly available registration information only showed the name Wu Yun. His photo, age, contact details, and everything else were not public.

So, while many people now knew the name Wu Yun, almost no one knew any specifics about him.

Even some people who knew *a* Wu Yun didn’t know he owned any companies, so they just assumed it was someone else with the same name.

As for the brokers and agents he’d dealt with before, they were hardly going to announce that they knew him. A connection like that was something to be privately maintained, not shared.

Li Qiuliang called to apologize. "President Wu! I’m so sorry. I never expected things to turn out like this!"

Li Qiuliang’s original intention was just to use the chairman’s name to promote Little Red Car. He never imagined a bunch of incompetent allies would jump on the bandwagon and thrust Wu Yun into the spotlight. Fortunately, for now, the outcome seemed positive.

Wu Yun laughed. "It’s fine. Becoming famous was bound to happen sooner or later. This might even be a good thing!"

After discussing with Li Qiuliang how they could leverage the situation, Wu Yun hung up.

After that, Wu Yun took several more calls from his general managers, all of them calling to apologize.

The group watched Wu Yun take one call after another. Liu Yongheng finally asked, "Senior Sister Wen Meng! Did you know our boss opened this many companies?"

Liu Yongheng had seen the trending article on Weibo. It said that Wu Yun wholly owned four companies, was the majority shareholder in two more, and held shares in another.

Wen Meng first nodded, then shook her head as she looked at her phone. "I knew about Little Red Car, Pinduoduo, Phoenix Entertainment, and the two game companies. I’m not sure about the other two, though!"

Wen Meng normally didn’t pry into Wu Yun’s business affairs, so she only had a rough idea.

’Jeez, how much money did the boss’s family give him!’ Liu Yongheng considered his own family to be quite well-off, at least ranking among the top in Jin Province. But even his dad would never give him that much capital to start a business. A few tens of millions would be the absolute limit.

This strengthened Liu Yongheng’s resolve to latch onto Wu Yun and to pursue his own shared power bank venture.

Wu Yun finally finished his calls. As he walked over, he saw everyone staring at him in unison. "Why are you all looking at me like that?"

"Boss, you’ve been holding out on us! So many companies!" Liu Yongheng said with a mock-betrayed expression.

Wu Yun couldn’t help but laugh. "You never asked which companies I owned. Was I supposed to just bring it up and brag about it?"

"For now, please don’t share my personal information with anyone," Wu Yun said. "Otherwise, I’ll be swamped with calls." He didn’t mind being known, but he didn’t want to be a spectacle. ’You have to take things one step at a time.’

"Got it! Boss, when are you taking me to tour Little Red Car? I want to learn from their Management!" Liu Yongheng said with a look of eager anticipation.

"Sure, once we get back," Wu Yun replied. "Little Red Car has something big happening right when we return."

........

Wu Yun’s sudden fame also boosted the popularity of the companies under his name.

The most direct beneficiaries were Little Red Car and Pinduoduo.

If you were to look at the line graphs on the backend, you’d see the download and registration counts for both apps, which had been growing steadily, suddenly spike.

Netizens from other cities flocked to Little Red Car’s official website or @’d their official Weibo account, asking when the bikes would be launched in other cities.

As for Pinduoduo, the surge in downloads led to a huge increase in active users. Its "Slash the Price" group-buying feature became all the rage among young people.

As for Phoenix Entertainment, many people declared their support for its invested projects, *Wolf Warrior* and *Disguiser*.

People also explicitly pledged to support the releases from his two game companies.

「Capital City. The offices of Little Yellow Car.」

"Donate! We’re donating too! We’ll match whatever Little Red Car donated!" Dai Wei shouted, his eyes bloodshot.

"President Dai, maybe we should donate a bit less? After all, our ride fees are much lower than Little Red Car’s..." someone advised.

Dai Wei raged, "Are we out of money? If we don’t have the cash, use the security deposits! If we donate less, am I, Dai Wei, supposed to admit that I’m inferior to Little Red Car?!"

Seeing that Dai Wei was deaf to their advice, the others at the meeting stopped objecting. The proposal to donate five million was quickly approved.

「Mobike.」

Hu Weixiao stared at the report on her desk and sighed, lowering the hands that had been massaging her temples.

She had no idea what Wang Wei had been doing the last few days. He hadn’t answered eight of her last ten calls! It was infuriating.

She knew that she couldn’t make decisions for Mobike all by herself, so she had to get Wang Wei’s input.

An hour after her last attempt, Hu Weixiao picked up her phone and dialed his number again.

This time, he picked up.

"Hello, Weixiao," Wang Wei’s voice sounded weary.

The perceptive Hu Weixiao caught the weariness in his tone. Suppressing her own agenda, she asked with concern, "Brother Wei, what’s wrong? Has something happened?"

Wang Wei was silent for a moment before finally telling her the truth.

It turned out his son had been arrested for killing someone in a drunk driving accident. His wife had also been taken in by the police, charged with obstruction of justice.

The court date was in a few days. The victim’s family was, understandably, distraught. They were protesting outside the courthouse every day with banners, demanding the killer be severely punished.

’Hu Weixiao was secretly delighted. She’d heard Wang Wei complain about his wife’s flaws before. Now, with this incident, it was highly unlikely they would stay married.’

’In that case, didn’t that mean she, Hu Weixiao, had a chance?’

’After all, Wang Wei held the majority of Mobike’s shares. This was a perfect chance to kill two birds with one stone!’

After Wang Wei had finished venting his frustrations, he finally asked, "Weixiao, you’ve called me so many times. Is something important going on?"

Hu Weixiao then told him about the donation.

Wang Wei was silent for a moment, then his tone hardened. "We’ll donate. We’ll match whatever Little Red Car donated!"

"But we don’t have much cash on hand," she protested. "We bring in a lot from ride fees, but most of that has to go toward maintenance and payroll."

"Then dip into the security deposits again!"

...

Wuyun Company’s donation triggered a wave of copycats. Many companies with deep pockets also donated generously.

Most of them, however, were only in the hundreds of thousands. A donation on the scale of Wu Yun’s was a rarity.

Some celebrities also jumped on the bandwagon, though of course, some of them genuinely wanted to help.

Wu Yun, still in the earthquake zone, paid no mind to these developments. Instead, he was focused on the progress of the road-clearing efforts on Zeduo Mountain.

Progress was faster than expected. It looked like the road might be open to traffic by that afternoon.
