As an entertainment news reporter, Tang Anqi initially attended the gaming fest to cover the opening ceremony.

But when she arrived, she realized that this inaugural online gaming fest was more than just the opening ceremony.

The live in-game battles were what attracted her the most.

She had never played Draconic Continent before, and she never knew gamers could excel the game in such a manner. E-Sports, was this the beauty of E-Sports?

After watching a few battles fought out on the screen, Tang Anqi had been completely lured.

After staring blankly for a full minute, Tang Anqi came to her senses with a shiver. Then, she took out her camera and frantically took pictures."This is it! It's this!

Hong Weiguo was shocked by what Ling Xiaoyi said. "Seriously?!" He had not paid much attention to property prices. The real estate resources department had been managing it. He hurriedly picked up his cell phone and made a call. "Hello, Xiao Liu, are you at the real estate resources department? I heard the property prices at West Fourth Loop have increased by 10%?!"

Xiao Liu gulped as he hesitated in his response. "CEO Hong, that… The actual increase… is…." He paused for a moment and gritted his teeth. "16%. And it's steadily increasing!"

Hong Weiguo was a little upset. "Why didn't you tell me earlier!? I could have bought more land! Such a big matter!"

Secretary Xiao Liu felt aggrieved. "CEO Hong, we can barely manage it here. There are people asking about the development of the community. The thing is, the prices are continuing to go up. Young Master Dali has been up to too many things recently. And I've been busy with the piece of land from Tianjing Mountain to West Fourth Loop, hence the delay in reporting…"

When Xiao Liu finished speaking, Hong Weiguo suddenly thought of something. "Yes, yes, yes. I almost forgot. How are discussions for the land?"

That was a piece of land worth more than two billion, definitely not child's play! As long as Hong Weiguo bought it and developed it well, it would definitely make money.

Secretary Xiao Liu sounded even more hesitant in his response. "That… the people from the Land and Resources Bureau wanted three billion. I was having a hard time since our offer was only half of that. I thought it would be hard to come to an agreement. Never would I have though… CEO Hong, where are you? I'd better speak to you face to face." He stopped his reporting halfway! PK standard for Player Killing, a part of online gaming with real people.
