"Are you really that rich?"
Farmhouse Restaurant.
Wu Sheng stared eagerly at Jiang Chen, and his boyishly handsome face finally had a hint of respect that he deserved.
Is one hundred billion enough?
Two hundred billion?
Crazy.
It’s so crazy!
Even this kid can't even comprehend the concept of money reaching such an equivalent amount.
Do they have this much wealth in their entire town?
“I’m bragging.”
Jiang Chen's response did not make Wu Sheng angry, but it made Li Shurui, who was eating, laugh.
She choked and coughed twice and hurriedly drank water.
Wu Sheng glanced at Li Shurui, and then his eyes quickly returned to Jiang Chen's face, making a loud statement.
“I don’t believe it.”
Don’t believe it?
Do you not believe that the other party has so much money, or do you not believe that the other party is just bragging?
"Take me as a fool. If you didn't have this strength, you would definitely not be able to do that..."
Wu Sheng was stuck and didn't know how to describe it.
Uh--How can I put it this way? People who pretend to be cool definitely don't have that kind of momentum, and they are more or less guilty. How can they be so calm?
“Awesome!”
He immediately gave Jiang Chen a thumbs up. It was just two words, one word, but it contained countless meanings.
"This is not a rural area. Don't do it easily in the future. You have to pay for beating someone."
"You have to pay for beating people in rural areas." Li Shurui corrected it in time. Since educating children, they must comprehensively objective.
"What I beat is not a human, but a dog."
Wu Sheng sneered, "A good person should be treated as a dog, or a dog for a foreigner. Such a thing is not worthy of eating. The food produced in our countryside.”
I have to admit, this kid’s curse is really unpleasant.
Jiang Chen, who started the conflict, was not at the scene, but now he understands the lesson.
This kid didn't get beaten. Civilized society really saved him. Of course, with Duanmu Liuli by his side, there was no need to worry about this problem at all.
“It’s normal to work for whomever you are paid.”
Jiang Chen simply said, but Wu Sheng immediately retorted, “According to what you said, foreigners make our money. We should be treated as ancestors, why not treat us as human beings?”
Jiang Chen was silent.
Li Shurui also said nothing.
Don’t count on Duanmu Liuli.
No one of the three adults could answer the child's question.
“Jiang Chen, I don’t think you need to help them.”
Wu Sheng picked up the chopsticks.
“Who to help?”
“Help those tourists. Foreigners don’t treat them as human beings, and they don’t treat themselves as human beings. Why do you help people like this? If you want money It’s too much to spend, so why not give it to me?”
This kid made the adults laugh again.
Even the corners of Duanmu Liuli's mouth curved slightly.
It seemed that Li Shurui's attempt to be the translator was not in vain. Wu Sheng roughly understood the meaning of the conversation in the office just now.
“A gentleman loves money and gets it in the right way, you said so yourself.”
Jiang Chen picked up the food.
“I’m sorry, you didn’t know you were so rich.”
Before, the number one person he admired most was undoubtedly his sister, but now.
This boy began to seriously doubt that his sister might not be as rich as Jiang Chen.
One or two thousand small goals, just play at a loss.
Go away, mother.
It seems that he is seriously lacking in showing off and still has a long way to go.
For a junior high school student, he must know that hundreds of billions are definitely more intimidating than tens of billions or billions in terms of measurement units, but he definitely does not have a specific understanding of what such wealth actually represents. I know.
But at least one thing is clear to him now.
“Mobile phone!”
No need to be polite to this guy.
Wu Sheng said immediately.
"Don't you want my things?"
"You are not a Muyang dog."
Okay.
It turns out that this kid went back on his word not just because he thought Jiang Chen was too rich, but because Jiang Chen's character was recognized by him.
He is not asking for a mobile phone, he is recognizing Jiang Chen!
Jiang Chen was amused.
How come you feel grateful when you send something by yourself?
“Eight thousand yuan, remember to pay it back.”
Jiang Chen took out his cell phone and handed it over.
“Eight thousand?”
“What? No?”
Jiang Chen tried to take it back.
Seeing this, Wu Sheng hurriedly reached out and grabbed it, looking at the latest mobile phone with a distressed look on his face.
"I didn't ask you to buy something so expensive."
He was just nagging, obviously he still knew what was good and what was good.
And.
The way he looked showed that he really planned to pay back the money.
In this regard, Jiang Chen has suffered a lot.
When the Great Witch Shi took advantage of him, it was a matter of course. The classic sentence "Why should I pay back the money I borrowed based on my ability?" is still fresh in my memory.
Although this kid had a lot of problems, he was at least principled. Seeing that he really had the intention to pay back the money, Jiang Chen gave the phone away with confidence.
“What if Disney doesn’t bow its head?”
Li Shurui spoke softly.
"Then we will start anew and give you a better dream world."
Li Shurui stared at her, "Are you serious?"
Jiang Chen still understated, "Cowhide It’s all blown out, and it can’t be taken back.”
So much money, which is more than Tianci’s current market value, is just thrown into the water?
A typical example of harming others but not benefiting oneself.
“Even if we can squeeze out Disney, we won’t get any benefits.”
Li Shurui reminded euphemistically.
Any normal person knows how to settle this account.
Jiang Chen was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "This is not business."
Li Shurui looked at him.
“Have you ever seen a boxing match? Business is all about win-win, or benefiting yourself at the expense of others, but if you stand in the boxing ring and injure your opponent a thousand times and lose eight hundred to yourself, that is also a victory.”
"...a bit crazy."
After a while, Li Shurui commented.
Jiang Chen smiled.
"Then do you think Disney is that crazy?"
Li Shurui shook her head without thinking.
If she were a Disney manager, she would definitely not step onto such a stage.
Because there is no winner.
To put it more bluntly.
Not everyone can afford to lose so much money.
In the current situation, Disney has no choice, because it has encountered an opponent who does not follow common sense. It must either bow its head or be forced into the ring.
Jiang Chen took a piece of shrimp cake.
In fact, he knows very well that it is difficult for him to have a chance of hemorrhaging money. In the Western world where interests are paramount, money is the only truth. Anything that stands opposite to money will be abandoned.
Dignity, pride?
All worth mentioning.
So there is no suspense about what Disney will choose. The weak will be dominated as a matter of course.
But the most important thing is.
You must have the strength to make the opponent cower.
When you have no money, girls will ask for high-end restaurants and flowers and gifts. But when you are really rich, you don’t need to spend money on girls.
Similarly.
When you dare to lose one or two hundred billion, there is no need to lose.
“So, Disney will bow to you.”
Jiang Chen put the shrimp cakes into his girlfriend’s bowl.
Wu Sheng, who was unconsciously observing him at first, was deeply inspired and amazed.
Learned.
Learned again.
East China Sea Disney.
President’s Office.
The atmosphere is depressing.
A large group of senior executives remained silent, as if they had been tapped at the same time. No one even coughed.
"President, I think it's just talking nonsense. No one would do that unless he is a lunatic."
Silent silence will definitely not work.
Someone has to step up.
The person who spoke was naturally not Kong Zilai. Although he was the director of operations, in the entire Disney management system, as a Chinese, he was obviously an outsider.
When working for foreigners, you must know how to measure yourself and know when to speak and when to shut up.
The person who broke the silence was the boss of the publicity and planning department.
It is not arrogant to make such a judgment when you think someone is talking nonsense.
Reality is what it is.
There are more Disney parks in the world than Donghai, but which one is not overcrowded?
Their success is worldwide.
Because of this, as a leader in the field, his gluttonous ability to attract money has naturally attracted the envy and jealousy of many people. For example, a certain Chinese entrepreneur was once elected as the richest man in China.
In order to get a share of the pie and build our own entertainment industry chain, we invested 30 billion to build a cultural tourism city on the edge of the East China Sea. When the project was started, we even boasted that Haikou would make the East China Sea Disney II No profit for ten years.
What’s the result?
The test papers have been approved and the scores have come out early. Disney is still Disney. Even though tourists have to spend money to queue up, the huge cultural and tourism city next door has gradually fallen silent, ignored by everyone and no one cares.
That’s right.
The popular classic line "a small goal" came from this entrepreneur.
There are too many people who want to snipe Disney and bring Disney down from the altar, but without exception, they all fail.
Not even the richest man, who else is worth caring about?
Compared to the boss of the Publicity and Development Department, President Bernard seemed to have a different idea. He was noncommittal and waved his hand thoughtfully.
“Everyone, get out.”
A large group of senior executives nodded, saluted, and filed out.
In the empty office, Bernard sat down in silence, his eyes flickering, thinking and weighing.
The richest man who once threatened to snipe them became a joke, but after working in China for so long, Bernard didn't understand that in this eastern land, there are people who are stronger than the "richest man" , too many.
Those are the ones who need to be taken seriously.
After thinking about it, Bernard moved his chair forward, tapped on the keyboard, and personally sent an email to the group director, explaining the situation in detail and completely.
After sending the email, he did not go to eat, but sat in front of the computer, waiting for the message.
No surprise.
More than half an hour after the email was sent, the distant group responded.
“Chairman.”
Bernard sat upright, his respect evident in his words.
An old man appeared on the video screen with gray hair, wearing a pair of reading glasses, and he could clearly be seen wearing pajamas.
That’s right.
You must know that the time difference between East and West is nearly twelve hours.
In other words, it was around early morning over there.
It can be seen that there are traces for Disney to be so successful. As chairman, he can still put in work so late.
Of course.
It may also be that the matter is too important and must be handled personally.
“Tell me the whole story again.”
Although he had explained it as completely as possible in the email, after hearing the order, Bernard quickly and painstakingly described it again in his own words. .
"Are everything you said true? Is there any embellishment or simple cover-up?"
"Chairman, my statements are all based on the facts that have happened, and there is no falsehood."
Bernard made a firm promise.
“He gave us two options, either to make rectifications or to withdraw shares and compete maliciously with us.”
in the video screen.
The Chairman of Disney adjusted his glasses. It was really hard for him to be so old and think so hard about the group late at night.
It’s not so much a plan.
It would be more accurate to say choice.
Getting back all the equity is certainly a desirable thing, but the price behind it is to push the original partners to the hostile side, and it is very likely that they will fight to the death.
The former richest man’s boast about Haikou would only make Disney unprofitable for twenty years.
But what the young man expressed between the lines was to drive them out of China!
Due to ideological and social attributes, in some aspects, Westerners are quite pragmatic. They will not laugh at whether a person is bragging. After matching the strength of the target, they will either ignore it directly or carefully consider the possible consequences. consequences.
"Chairman, taking one or two hundred billion to compete with us may be an exaggeration, but I think he is indeed very likely to target us..."
Bernard He analyzed rationally, but was interrupted before he finished speaking.
"He is not exaggerating. If we don't cooperate, he will take action, just like what he said."
Bernard was in a daze, looking at the old chairman in the video distractedly.
"Bernard, I have to update you. A new name was added to the blacklist not long ago, and that is this young man named Jiang Chen."
Bernard was speechless. .
Of course he understands what the black list is.
As the name suggests, it is like a blacklist, which lists some unpopular guys around the world.
Of course.
There is no need to be remembered for their low strength, so because they have to admit the weight and influence of these guys, they are described as "respectable opponents".
The names of certain heads of state are also recorded on the black list, which shows the gold content of this "roster".
At the same time.
In contrast.
If there is a "black list", there will naturally be a "white list".
Everyone on the black list is a respectable opponent, so naturally the white list is a close friend.
What a coincidence.
The white list also contains the names of some world dignitaries.
After a moment of silence, Bernard's mouth moved.
"So... what should we do?"
Fortunately, he chose to report it in time.
The characters on the blacklist are not something he is capable of dealing with.
The old chairman, who is famous in the world's capital market, sighed slightly. Perhaps it was late at night and he was a little tired, and seemed to be mixed with a little helplessness.
"Ask him what he wants, young man, you are so energetic. There is no need for us to accompany him in such an unprofitable arena."
"..."
Where is Bernard? I couldn't figure out what this meant, so I nodded meticulously without giving any clues.
"Please rest assured, I will handle it properly."
The video screen was interrupted,
Bernard sat on the president's chair, leaned back, and looked at The computer screen is turned off and has no focus.
Thousands of tourists every day can indeed be regarded as ants, but equally, there are also people in this land who can make them humble themselves. (End of this chapter)
