"Reduced to driving a Bentley?" Upon hearing this sentence, everyone's expression turned as if they had eaten shit.
What does it an to be reduced to driving a Bentley? In the eyes of soone like Zhang nglong, was driving a Bentley now sothing to be looked down upon? They, too, wished to be so "reduced," but who would give them such an opportunity to fall from grace?
"It's only been four years and it's co to this. In another two years, will I be 'reduced' to driving a Maserati?" Zhang nglong continued with his sarcastic tone.
The staff of Huabang Group all forced bitter smiles. Their chairman's car was a Maserati, a person whom they looked up to, and even he didn't et Zhang nglong's standards?
"Mr. Zhang, you've misunderstood," the elderly man said to Zhang nglong, "Our young master simply prefers to keep a low profile. He doesn't wish to be too ostentatious. These few Bentleys are in fact the worst cars in the young master's garage."
"The worst cars?" Zheng Hefeng's face had already contorted to the point of near paralysis.
These Bentleys were all Continentals and GTs, each worth no less than three million upon purchase. Zheng Hefeng, though capable, had not earned three million since graduating.
As for his father, he drove a car worth just under two million, which was the cheapest car in Xing Zhe's family.
He had just been belittling Xing Zhe's family for not being good enough for Chen Qiuyi. If even a family like Xing Zhe's wasn't good enough, then what was Zheng Hefeng? A beggar?
Rembering his own words from a mont ago, Zheng Hefeng's face burned with sha. The Panara he had just ntioned suddenly lost all its allure.
"Idiot, what kind of research is this? You can't even find out their family background!" Zheng Hefeng ground his teeth in anger.
"Mr. Zhang ntioned that soone was insulting our young master just now?" The old man's face suddenly turned extrely gloomy, and the burly n in suits imdiately fixed their gaze on Zheng Hefeng in the car.
"No... You've all misunderstood, I..." Zheng Hefeng suddenly sweated profusely as fear seeped down his back.
Just these few most ordinary cars had a total value of over ten million. If we dare assu, the total value of all the cars in their family might well be over a hundred million.
If just the cars are worth over a hundred million, then how much is their house? How much money must their family have? How big must their company be?
"He's probably like Zhang nglong, having grown up here since he was small, but his real background must be unfathomable!" Zheng Hefeng even started to wonder if Huabang Group could withstand it if Xing Zhe wanted to take revenge.
Huabang Group's total market value was only around thirty billion. To soone like Xing Zhe, such a company might as well be trash, right?
"Ah Hai," the old man said to a bodyguard next to him, "go find out who the owner of this company is."
"Uncle Wu, no need to check, the chairman of Huabang Group is Zhou Yongkang," the bodyguard called Ah Hai replied.
"Zhou Yongkang?" The old man pondered, "Don't know him, must be just a small businessman. How much is this company worth?"
"About thirty-sothing billion?"
"Just thirty-sothing billion? Acquire it tomorrow. Since the young master likes it, we'll leave it to him to manage when it's done!"
At this mont, the shadow in Zheng Hefeng's heart had already beco infinitely large. Just thirty-sothing billion? To say they would acquire it just like that? How could a listed company be like a toy in the old man's eyes? And this man seed to be just soone like a steward in Xing Zhe's family.
"This... I think let's forget it..." Xing Zhe could guess from Zhang nglong's expression that all this had been arranged by him.
He had grown up in an ordinary family. He certainly knew his family didn't have such power. This was clearly Zhang nglong getting even for him!
"I still prefer my own company and like being an ordinary employee," Xing Zhe seed to be speaking to the elder, but in reality, he was saying it for Zhang nglong to hear.
With his own ability, even if Zhang nglong really gave him a company, he wouldn't be able to manage it well.
"This kid has no ambition at all," Zhang nglong shook his head, but to each their own, he couldn't force anything. To be honest, Zhang nglong didn't feel the slightest heartache about spending three billion to buy a company for his brother, whom he had grown up with.
To most people, would spending three dollars on a drink for a friend cause any heartache? That was Zhang nglong's ntality.
"Since that's the case, then forget it," the elder glanced at Zhang nglong and received instructions from his eyes.
"Hey, Butler Wu, since Xing Zhe likes to go to work, just let him be!" Zhang nglong "persuaded." "This kid loves to show off. If he doesn't go to work and stays ho all day, where is he going to flaunt his wealth? Where is he going to find an audience for his showing off? We're all young people, I get it!"
"You don't know shit!" Xing Zhe cursed Zhang nglong out in his mind, when did Xing Zhe ever like to show off? This was clearly Zhang nglong's own idea, okay.
Hearing Zhang nglong's words, Chen Qiuyi also couldn't help but hold back her laughter. With her quick wits, she of course knew these were all Zhang nglong's manipulative moves. After all these years, Zhang nglong's personality was still as playful as ever.
"Since that's the case, then... well, alright, young master, if you ever feel like not going to work and want to take over the family business, just let
know, I'll co to pick you up anyti!"
"Let's go!" The elder sighed, and several Bentleys swiftly departed.
"Xing Zhe, where are you working now? I rember it's a construction company too, right?"
"Oh, a small company, Huabang Construction," Xing Zhe ca back to his senses and said.
Zhang nglong took out his phone and directly called Mayor Zhu, "Uncle Zhu, am I disturbing you?"
"Haha, nglong, not at all, is there sothing you need?"
"Oh, it's like this. The construction project for my factory area was given to Haisheng Group, right?"
"Yes, what's up?"
"It's like this, don't let them take that order, give it to Huabang Construction instead."
"Huabang Construction?" Mayor Zhu was taken aback, he hadn't even heard the na of this company before, and imdiately had his assistant look up information on this company.
"Such a small company?" Mayor Zhu said, "nglong, although this company has a good reputation, its scale is too small. They probably can't even afford the initial construction materials with their financial resources!"
"No problem, I can pay the construction funds in advance; paying everything in one installnt is also okay," Zhang nglong said.
"Since that's the case, then there's no issue. I'll go arrange it now," Mayor Zhu couldn't help but ask another question, "Do you have a conflict with the people from Haisheng Group?"
Mayor Zhu was no fool. Zhang nglong would definitely not let a small, unheard-of company replace Haisheng, a well-established big enterprise, to take on a multibillion-dollar project for no reason.
"Check out this Huabang Construction for ," Mayor Zhu whispered to his secretary, "See if there's any of Zhang nglong's friends or classmates or sothing in that company."
"Oh, actually, it's nothing," Zhang nglong said with a laugh, "I just forgot to bring paper when I went to the bathroom today, and I'm in a bad mood."
