How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 114

“Stop filming. You won’t be able to afford it in this lifetime.” He scoffed. “What’s wrong with a ride-hailing driver having a little money?”

Yang Chen arrived at the manager’s office.

The manager hurried over to shake hands and greet Yang Chen, then instructed his assistant to quickly make tea.

Just as Yang Chen sat down, his phone buzzed with a notification from the Bilibili platform [a Chinese video-sharing website], informing him of a negative review.

“The driver wasn’t focused on driving and deliberately tried to chat us up because he saw there were many girls. What makes him think a ride-hailing driver is worthy of chatting us up? Plus, he overloaded the car. We hope the platform will seriously handle this.”

*Oh my goodness*, Yang Chen thought, *what can you even say when you encounter people like this?*

Let’s not even talk about the chatting up part. Yang Chen couldn’t help but talk to them, and if they insist on calling it chatting up, there’s nothing he could do.

But they insisted on squeezing into the car, causing the overload. There’s no reasoning with them.

Well, now it’s become their reason for giving a negative review.

*Damn, people’s hearts are truly treacherous.*

*Isn’t this the same as parents who hire a tutor for their child, and then report the tutor for giving private lessons after the child gets into high school?*

At that moment, the system issued a notification.

“Congratulations to the host for receiving a negative review. The system rewards the host with 10 million in disposable funds and one chance for a bonus expansion. If the host can get the passenger who gave the negative review to voluntarily delete it, the bonus will randomly expand 5-10 times. Note: The shorter the time taken, the higher the chance of getting a larger multiple. Please act quickly, host.”

The manager said with a smile, “Mr. Yang, please have some tea.”

*A cup of tea might cost him tens of millions. Who’s in the mood for tea?*

Yang Chen quickly picked up the teacup, took a sip, and stood up, saying, “Manager, I’m in a hurry. Let’s go see the car now.”

Actually, Yang Chen wanted to quickly go to the exhibition area to find those six women and figure out a way to get them to delete the negative review.

“Oh, okay, okay. No problem. Let’s go, I’ll take Mr. Yang and this young lady to see the car now,” the manager said with a smile.

Customers who can afford a Rolls-Royce are not simple, and since Yang Chen and Yu Shishi looked very young, the manager’s first thought was that these two were rich second-generation heirs [children of wealthy individuals].

Such customers need to be well-maintained, as they might come back to buy cars again in the future.

Therefore, the manager personally took Yang Chen and Yu Shishi to see the car.

Just as they reached the stairwell, they heard a quarrel downstairs.

It turned out that a customer who had just bought a Rolls-Royce Phantom found a scratch on it, and they had come specifically to demand an explanation.

Although those who buy Rolls-Royces are all wealthy, the 4S store [car dealership] couldn’t easily admit fault. Unless they could confirm that the scratch was made after they drove it out, or if it was already there in the store, the 4S store would definitely not admit it.

Therefore, the two parties started arguing.

After all, people who can afford a Rolls-Royce Phantom are not simple, and their tempers are definitely more volatile. They certainly wouldn’t be afraid of the 4S store, so arguing was inevitable.

The manager looked embarrassed and quickly said to Yang Chen, “Mr. Yang, I’m sorry, I’ll go take a look. Your car is over there; you can go take a look first.”

Yang Chen nodded with a smile and looked up to see that the people arguing were actually Lin Xiyou and a young man in his twenties.

The two were standing very close, so their relationship was definitely not simple.

If they weren’t mother and son, they were lovers.

Yang Chen didn’t want to join in the fun, so he quickly took Yu Shishi to see the car.

Because it was a car rewarded by the system, the license plate number, insurance, and all sorts of miscellaneous procedures were already taken care of.

The license plate was also custom-made.

Yu Shishi said with a face full of surprise, “Mr., this car is so beautiful.”

Yang Chen replied with a smile, “Sit inside and try it out.”

Yu Shishi nodded with a smile and quickly sat down to experience the luxurious interior of the Cullinan.

A beautiful woman with a luxury car—the scene was too beautiful.

Yang Chen took out his phone and snapped a few photos to commemorate the moment.

At this moment, the six women who had finished taking photos of the Phantom came over.

“Yo, little rascal, how did you get in here too?”

“How did they let you in? You’re a ride-hailing driver; you obviously can’t afford it.”

“Stop taking pictures; you’ll never have anything to do with it in this lifetime.”

“Actually, that’s not true. He still has a chance now. As long as he’s willing to join our team, he can get a car in a few months. And I can also delete the negative review for you. How about it?”

…

*They are really persistent.*

Yang Chen replied with a smile, “Thank you for your kindness, but I’m still very satisfied with my current life and don’t need to join you. Have you picked up your car yet?”

The woman who gave the negative review pointed to the Phantom in the distance and said, “That’s the one; we’ve already picked it up. However, I think these two SUVs are quite domineering, and we want to take a video to commemorate the moment. You stay away; don’t block us.”

At this moment, Yu Shishi opened the door and came out, saying, “What’s going on?”

Yang Chen replied, “It’s nothing; these ladies want to borrow the car to take a photo. Come over here; don’t block them.”

Yu Shishi nodded and quickly walked to Yang Chen’s side.

“Little rascal, is this your girlfriend?”

“A ride-hailing driver can actually find such a beautiful girlfriend.”

“Little girl is naive; she’ll know how important money is when she grows up.”

“Little girl, what do you like about him? Is it because he’s handsome?”

“We’re experienced; let me tell you, being handsome can’t be eaten. It’s okay to play around when you’re young, but you must not get married. You still have to find a rich person to marry; otherwise, poverty-stricken couples will have endless sorrows.”

…

Yu Shishi was embarrassed by what they said and quickly replied, “Don’t talk nonsense.”

The older sister who gave the negative review quickly said, “Alright, stop wasting time with them; quickly shoot the video; the store will be closing soon.”

The women pulled up a banner and took turns going up to say their lines and shoot the video.

When Yu Shishi was in college, she focused all her energy on studying, and then she went abroad to study, so she really didn’t know what these women were doing.

“Mr., what are they doing?” Yu Shishi asked in a low voice.

Yang Chen smiled without saying a word and used his phone to search for WeChat business [Chinese multi-purpose instant messaging, social media and mobile payment app] *pengyouquan* [Moments feature on WeChat, similar to a social media feed] copywriting to show her.

After Yu Shishi finished reading, she smiled in surprise and said, “Wow, it all matches up. Oh my god, this is so outrageous; they even use Elon Musk’s photo as an advertisement, saying he happily got a rocket. This Sister Yangyang’s is even more outrageous; she contracted a billion square kilometers of industrial park in Uganda.”

Yang Chen replied with a smile, “Keep it down; don’t ruin their livelihood.”

“But aren’t they deceiving people?” Yu Shishi asked in a low voice.

“Those who are willing will take the bait. People with normal brains won’t be fooled, but those with intellectual problems will be fooled. Even if we help them block this one disaster, they will still stumble on other things in the future. If the law doesn’t care, we shouldn’t meddle in other people’s business,” Yang Chen replied.

After a while, the six women finished filming.

“The license plate is already on; this car definitely has an owner.”

“I wonder if the owner is here; it would be great to add him as a friend.”

“That’s right; if we can add the owner of the car as a friend, we can borrow his car to take pictures in the future.”

…

*So, why would someone who drives a Rolls-Royce Cullinan want to add them as friends?*

*It’s impossible to understand their confidence.*

Yang Chen had to go up and persuade the woman who gave the negative review to delete it. He couldn’t let the reward go to waste.

Just then, the manager also came.

The manager replied somewhat angrily, “You can only film the designated cars, and you can’t film other cars without permission. That’s what we agreed on. Why did you come to film this car?”

The older sister quibbled, “I saw that you all went over there to argue with people, so I didn’t bother you. Oh dear, we’re all old acquaintances; you’re not going to haggle over these things with us, are you?”

“Alright, alright, hurry up and leave,” the manager said impatiently.

The older sister’s face was really thick, and she asked with a smile, “Manager, where is the owner of this car? Can I meet him?”

The manager subconsciously looked at Yang Chen and then said very angrily, “You still have the nerve to say that. The owner is right there. Because you were filming the video, he couldn’t even look at the car. If you keep doing this, don’t come to take pictures in the future. I only charge you 200 yuan, but if you offend our customers, we’ll lose more than we gain.”

The older sister followed the direction the manager was looking and asked, “Where? I can’t see him?”

“Are you blind? Can’t you see those two big people?” the manager asked in confusion.

The older sister immediately widened her eyes and said, “Are you saying… this car belongs to that ride-hailing driver?”
