Inviting Yang Chen to Acquire Penguin Technology Equity

Chapter 289 Inviting Yang Chen to Acquire Penguin Technology Equity

Clerk Xiaoli’s words stunned everyone in the bank.

Clearing the floor, inviting him into the VIP lounge, and having the bank manager accompany him—who exactly was this delivery guy?

Li Hang, the General Management Department Manager, hurried over and asked, “What’s going on?”

Clerk Xiaoli turned the computer monitor to show him. Seeing the long string of numbers indicating the deposit amount, Li Hang’s legs immediately began to tremble.

The lobby manager and the security guard also ran over to take a look and were equally shocked and at a loss.

Clerk Xiaoli quickly said, “Don’t just stand there! Do something!”

The three of them then reacted and quickly took action.

The security guard cleared the floor, the lobby manager invited Yang Chen to the VIP reception room, and the General Management Department Manager ran to find the bank manager.

Since he had already decided to transfer the money, there was no need to communicate with them.

Yang Chen said very firmly, “No need for the VIP reception room. Do it here. Now, immediately, transfer my money to this card. Do I need to specify the purpose?”

The lobby manager quickly replied with a smile, “No! No need!”

Yang Chen nodded and said, “It’s okay if you want to know. I just don’t want to keep my money in your bank anymore. I want to transfer it to Haicheng Bank. You can report this to your superiors as it is.”

At this time, the Porsche owner who had come in with Yang Chen to ask for compensation quickly asked, “Hey, buddy, why are you kicking us out?”

The security guard replied, “He’s a big client! He has tens of billions in his account, and now he wants to transfer it out. This is a huge deal. We have to clear the area and persuade him not to transfer the money.”

The Porsche owner and his mistress widened their eyes in shock.

A delivery guy with tens of billions in deposits?

The woman asked fearfully, “Uncle, are you sure you’re not mistaken? Tens of billions? Did you include the numbers after the decimal point?”

The security guard said, “Come on, even if I was wrong, would they all be wrong? Get out of here, or the boss will scold me!”

The security guard pushed them out.

The woman thought about it carefully and said, “Honey, did I say anything disrespectful to him?”

The Porsche owner said, “No… I don’t think so… My God, a delivery guy actually has tens of billions in deposits. It’s unbelievable.”

The woman said, “No, you should say that he has tens of billions and still goes to deliver food.”

The man said, “Yes, yes, that’s what I meant.”

The woman said, “So what do we do now? Should we still ask him for compensation?”

The man said, “Compensation my ass! He’s a big shot with tens of billions in deposits. What do I need compensation for? If I can add him as a friend, it’s more useful than compensating me for a car. Let’s just wait for him to come out here.”

…

Inside the bank.

Yang Chen urged, “Hurry up and process my transfer! What? Does the money no longer belong to me once it’s deposited in your bank?”

The lobby manager quickly replied, “No, no, it’s always yours. It’s just that you…”

Yang Chen said, “No ‘justs.’ Since it’s mine, hurry up and transfer it. I still have deliveries to make.”

The lobby manager said, “Let me do your deliveries for you, okay? I’ll help you deliver food for a month for free, just please don’t transfer the money out.”

Yang Chen: “If you help me deliver food, what am I going to do? I’m just doing this because I’m bored. If you help me deliver food, I’ll have to find a new job. What job is more free than delivering food?”

At this moment, a loud voice came from the side.

“Haha… Mr. Yang, you don’t need to find a new job. You can come work at our bank directly. As a vice president, with an annual salary of ten million. You don’t need to do anything special. Just come here to drink tea, read the news, and play games. It would be our bank’s honor to have you here.”

Yang Chen turned his head to look and saw a middle-aged man in a suit walking over.

This person was Zhang Hongbo, the manager of this bank.

If he could keep Yang Chen’s tens of billions of funds in the bank, these funds could be loaned out, and at an annual interest rate of 6%, the annual interest would be at least several hundred million.

Giving Yang Chen a nominal position with an annual salary of ten million would be a super cost-effective deal for the bank.

Yang Chen smiled and said, “No need, I can’t afford to work at your bank. I’ll just stick to being a deliveryman.”

Zhang Hongbo walked closer, reached out to shake hands with Yang Chen, and said, “Mr. Yang, hello, I am Zhang Hongbo, the manager of this bank. If it’s convenient, let’s go to the VIP reception room or my office to talk.”

Yang Chen shook his head and said, “No, I’m in a hurry. Just have them process the transfer for me quickly.”

Zhang Hongbo reprimanded with a straight face, “How are you treating Mr. Yang? How could you treat such a distinguished guest like this?”

The lobby manager quickly explained, “I’m sorry, Mr. Yang, I’m sorry, Manager Zhang. I’ve never met Mr. Yang before, and I didn’t know he was so distinguished. If I had known he was so distinguished, I definitely wouldn’t have made such a low-level mistake. I apologize to Mr. Yang and Manager Zhang for my negligence, and I am willing to accept any punishment. Please forgive me, Mr. Yang, and give us another chance.”

Yang Chen had no particular feelings about this lobby manager.

However, Yang Chen was very unhappy with the General Management Department Manager, Li Hang.

Li Hang also quickly apologized, saying, “Mr. Yang, I’m sorry, I didn’t know your identity. I sincerely apologize for my inappropriate words and am also willing to accept any punishment. I beg you, Mr. Yang, please don’t transfer the funds away. Thank you.”

Yang Chen took out his phone and dialed the police, saying, “If you don’t transfer the money, I’m calling the police. Tomorrow, I’ll also report this to the Banking Regulatory Commission [a government agency that supervises banks] and other departments. You’ll bear the consequences!”

Zhang Hongbo immediately became anxious and quickly said, “Mr. Yang, don’t do this. We are really sincere in our apology. What can we do to make you forgive us? Just tell us, and we will do our best to satisfy you, okay?”

As he spoke, Zhang Hongbo slapped Li Hang and the lobby manager each once, not giving them any face at all.

Actually, Zhang Hongbo’s mood at this time was understandable.

If he lost Yang Chen’s tens of billions of funds all at once, the head office would definitely hold him accountable.

At that time, it wouldn’t be something that could be resolved with just a few slaps. It would be a big deal that could really cost him his job.

What was the concept of tens of billions of funds?

Just the business of making corporate loans alone would generate nearly 200 million in interest per year.

This interest would be enough to support all the employees of many branches for their entire lives.

The loss was so ridiculously large that it was unacceptable.

Yang Chen: “I don’t have any special pursuits right now, just saving face. You made me lose face, and no matter how much you apologize, the lost face can’t be recovered. Transfer the money, don’t waste time.”

Zhang Hongbo still wanted to say something, but Yang Chen directly dialed the police.

Seeing that communication was impossible, Zhang Hongbo didn’t want to cause any more trouble and quickly said, “Mr. Yang, don’t do this. We’ll transfer the money right away. You don’t need to call the police!”

Clerk Xiaoli quickly withdrew 80,000 in cash for Yang Chen and then transferred all the money from Yang Chen’s personal account to the Haicheng Bank account.

Such a large cross-bank transfer would not arrive until tomorrow.

But that didn’t matter, as long as it was transferred.

Yang Chen put away his ID card and bank card, took the 80,000 in cash, and got up to leave.

Even though Yang Chen had now transferred away all of the ten billion plus from his personal account and didn’t give Manager Zhang Hongbo any face,

Zhang Hongbo still had to be polite and respectful to him.

Why?

Because there were still over two hundred million in the dozens of company accounts associated with Yang Chen.

Public accounts generally don’t change easily. Zhang Hongbo felt that there was still a chance to retain this part of the funds, so that the branch wouldn’t lose hundreds of millions of funds all at once.

“Mr. Yang, take care. I’m very sorry for the bad experience. We will definitely compensate Mr. Yang in the future. Please forgive us,” Zhang Hongbo said humbly.

Yang Chen didn’t say anything and walked directly out of the bank.

The Porsche owner quickly ran over and said with a smile, “Brother, I’m sorry, I didn’t recognize a big shot like you who was out experiencing life. I was wondering why your car was so amazing, with no marks at all. So you’re a big shot, and the car has been modified for safety.”

Yang Chen smiled and replied, “You don’t need to say all that. I’ve taken the money out, 80,000 yuan. I haven’t touched it. Count it.”

The Porsche owner laughed and said, “No need, no need. I took a closer look, and it’s just a little scratch. You can’t even see it if you don’t pay attention. It doesn’t affect the appearance or the driving at all. No need to repair it, no need for compensation.”

Yang Chen smiled and stuffed the money into his hand, saying, “I’m a very principled person. What others owe me, I must get back. What I owe others, I will definitely give. Take it, or I’ll feel like I owe you something.”

The Porsche owner was waiting for Yang Chen to say this. He quickly said with a smile, “If you feel like you owe me something, brother, can you give me a WeChat friend slot? Let’s add each other as friends, and that will be your compensation for my car damage. Please, okay?”

So he wanted to add him as a friend. No wonder he suddenly didn’t want compensation.

Yang Chen didn’t care about a mere 80,000 yuan at all.

But he definitely wouldn’t add friends casually unless the other person was useful.

Yang Chen then asked, “What do you do, brother?”

The Porsche owner said, “Brother, let me formally introduce myself. My name is Kang Laihui, and I am the data department manager of Weichuang Technology Group. Oh, Weibo [a popular Chinese social media platform] is our company.”

Yang Chen nodded and said, “Oh, so you’re the Weibo data department manager. Okay, let’s add each other as friends. I happen to have a business deal I can introduce to you.”

Kang Laihui was extremely excited and quickly said, “Really? That’s great. May I ask what your name is, brother?”

Yang Chen scanned the code to add him as a friend and said, “My name is Yang Chen. I have many identities. For now, you can know that I am the second largest shareholder of LVMH Group [a French luxury goods conglomerate]. We are holding a new product exhibition on Sunday, and we need to buy a trending search. You can directly contact Wu Yue to discuss the specific details. I will tell her about this.”

Kang Laihui: “I heard that the new second largest shareholder of LVMH Group is a Dragon Country [China] person. I didn’t expect it to be you, Mr. Yang. Nice to meet you, nice to meet you. I’m so lucky to have had a scratch with Mr. Yang, otherwise I wouldn’t have had the chance to meet you.”

Wow, he’s so realistic…

Yang Chen: “So you don’t want the 80,000 yuan?”

Kang Laihui: “Haha… no need, no need. I should be celebrating that I had this scratch.”

Yang Chen: “Then it’s settled. I have to go deliver food, goodbye.”

Kang Laihui: “Okay! Take care, Mr. Yang.”

Yang Chen: “Oh, right, I just saw this lady taking pictures of me. Delete them. Manager Kang, you understand what I mean, right?”

Kang Laihui: “Understood! Understood!”

Then he took the mistress’s phone and deleted all the photos and videos in front of Yang Chen.

Yang Chen nodded, took the 80,000 yuan he had just withdrawn, got in the car, and left.

The mistress said with a shocked expression, “He’s actually the second largest shareholder of LVMH Group. How rich is he?”

Kang Laihui: “I don’t know exactly how rich he is, but he’s definitely very rich. The bank made such a big fuss, they must have been scared by the money in his account and wanted to beg him not to transfer it away. And look at how angry the manager was, he probably couldn’t keep his money.”

The mistress: “Amazing! So young and so rich. If he gets a little older, becoming the richest man in the world wouldn’t be difficult, right?”

Kang Laihui: “I don’t think it’s difficult. Let’s go, I have to go home tonight. We’re going to the hotel now, see how daddy will mess you up.”

The mistress: “Go! You’re annoying.”

…

At this time, Zhang Hongbo was scolding the General Management Department Manager and the lobby manager.

How unprofessional did they have to be to offend a big client like Yang Chen?

The lobby manager explained, “He’s never been here before, I really don’t recognize him.”

Li Hang, the General Management Department Manager: “I’ve never seen him either. Seeing him wearing delivery clothes, I thought he was just an ordinary deliveryman.”

Zhang Hongbo stepped forward and slapped Li Hang again, scolding, “Even if he’s just a deliveryman, does that mean you can mock him? When customers come to do business, can’t you just guide them through the process? Why say so much nonsense? He said he wanted to deposit a hundred million, you let the teller handle it and see his account balance to decide what to do, right? Why did you mock him?”

Li Hang lowered his head and didn’t say anything.

In the end, it was just that he felt that he was the General Management Department Manager of the bank, and Yang Chen was just a deliveryman, so he looked down on him from the bottom of his heart.

Zhang Hongbo continued, “When the system settles tonight, the head office will definitely know that we lost over ten billion here. Just wait, it’s not certain whether I can continue to be the manager, and you two will definitely be fired!”

…

Yang Chen drove towards the LVMH Group’s Dragon Country headquarters.

On the way, he also picked up a ride-sharing order.

There were three passengers, one man and two women.

The two female passengers sat in the back, and the male passenger sat in the passenger seat.

The female passenger in the red dress asked with an adoring expression, “Luo Feng, did you really get an LV invitation?”

The male passenger nodded with a smug smile and said, “Of course.”

As he spoke, he took out the LVMH Group invitation from his bag.

The two girls quickly snatched it over and admired it, constantly praising it.

The girl in the white T-shirt and denim shorts also looked envious and said, “Then you can see a lot of celebrities at the event?”

The male passenger smiled slightly and said, “Definitely! Let me tell you some gossip. I heard that LV’s spokesperson, Yang Yun, was canceled her endorsement contract because she offended the second largest shareholder of LVMH Group. LV is already in talks to have Yang Da Mi [a famous Chinese actress] take over. It will be officially announced at the exhibition on Sunday.”

The girl in the red dress: “Really? How could Yang Yun offend the second largest shareholder of LVMH Group? Isn’t she always recording shows in the country? When did she go abroad?”

The male passenger: “What? The second largest shareholder of LVMH Group is not a foreigner, he is a Dragon Country person, and he is in Haicheng, named… I think his name is Yang Chen, or Yang Chen, anyway, it’s that sound. Speaking of which, Yang Yun is also unlucky. The second shareholder went to the LV store with his girlfriend to buy things that night, and Yang Yun happened to be going to buy things too. Originally, they were each buying their own things, and no one was interfering with anyone. But celebrities, they all like to show off, right? Yang Yun actually asked the store manager to clear the store, kicking all the other customers out, leaving only her to slowly pick out her things. So do you think the second shareholder would put up with her?”

The girl in the white T-shirt: “Tsk tsk tsk… that’s too unlucky. Wait, didn’t the store manager remind her that the second shareholder was there?”

The male passenger: “Remind her my ass! The store manager doesn’t even know the second shareholder. My sister is also a store manager, and she has never seen who the second shareholder is, she only knows that his name sounds like Yang Chen.”

The girl in the red dress: “Rich people are low-key. Luo Feng, can you ask your sister for a few more invitations? We also want to go to the event to see the celebrities.”

The girl in the white T-shirt: “Yes, yes, please ask your sister for two more. We’ll treat you to dinner tonight, you can order whatever you want.”

The male passenger: “Please, this is an LVMH Group invitation! Even celebrities can’t go if they want to, they have to be a spokesperson for an LVMH Group brand to go. It’s too difficult for you to go.”

The two girls refused to give up and kept making physical contact with the male passenger, using this to tempt him to agree to their request.

The male passenger revealed a sly smile at the corner of his mouth and said, “You know how precious this invitation is. We’ll play together tonight, and I’ll get you the invitations tomorrow morning.”

At this time, he was already fantasizing about a double-edged sword scene in his mind [a euphemism for a sexual encounter with two women at once].

The two girls looked at each other and finally nodded to accept his condition.

Yang Chen on the side was stunned. An invitation can be played with like this?

Luxury brands are awesome, this is really something.

However, this kid is using LVMH Group’s invitation to sleep with girls. It’s okay if nothing happens, but if something does happen, once it’s exposed on the internet, netizens will definitely be angry with LVMH Group. That’s a certainty.

At this moment, the girl in red said, “Oh dear, my phone is about to run out of battery. Driver, can I charge it here?”

Yang Chen nodded and said, “Yes, there’s a power bank in the glove compartment. Help yourself.”

The girl in red nodded, got up, returned the invitation to the male passenger, and opened the glove compartment to find the power bank.

At this moment, a stack of red invitations in the glove compartment caught her attention.

“Huh? Why are there so many LV invitations here?” the girl in red said, taking out the stack of invitations.

Last time, Wu Yue gave Yang Chen a lot of invitations. Xi Yuyao took one, and she put the rest in the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat.

Yang Chen was very busy every day and forgot about the invitations.

The three of them immediately divided the stack of invitations and examined them carefully.

Girl in red: “Hey, Luo Feng, it’s really the same as your invitation.”

Girl in white T-shirt: “Didn’t you say this invitation is hard to get? Why does the driver have so many?”

The male passenger looked surprised and quickly compared his invitation with the stack of invitations. It was indeed exactly the same.

This was so embarrassing.

He boasted in front of the girls about how difficult it was to get this invitation, and even wanted to use the invitation to kill two birds with one stone [achieve two goals with a single action]. But this ride-hailing driver had nine of them. How could this be considered hard to get?

The girl in red immediately asked, “Driver, how do you have so many LV invitations? Where did they come from?”

Before Yang Chen could answer, the male passenger immediately said, “Are you faking invitations to deceive people? Are you using this to cheat people and sell them for money?”

Yang Chen chuckled and said, “It’s not that serious. It’s not like it’s something valuable. How can I cheat people? Can this be sold for money? If I sell it to you, would you want it?”

The girl in the white T-shirt immediately asked, “Driver, can you give us an invitation? You have so many here, you can’t use them all by yourself, right?”

The girl in red: “Yes, yes, handsome, please, give us one each. We really want to go to the event to see the celebrities.”

Yang Chen nodded and said, “Sure. However, you can’t take it for free. You have to do something.”

The girl in red: “What do you want us to do? Just tell us.”

Yang Chen: “LV just hired Yang Da Mi [likely a famous actress, could be a play on words]. as their spokesperson, and it will be officially announced at the exhibition on Sunday. Whether you two like Yang Da Mi or not, you must both become her die-hard fans that day. Hold her posters and shout like crazy when you see her. Chasing stars, you girls all know how to do that.”

Male passenger: “Damn! Bro, I just heard from my sister that Yang Da Mi might be the new spokesperson, but she didn’t say it was definitely her. You’re asking people to do things based on what I heard? That’s a bit funny.”

At this time, they arrived at their destination.

Yang Chen pulled over and said, “We’re here. Do you two agree or not?”

The two girls immediately nodded in agreement, each took an invitation, and put the rest back in the glove compartment.

Male passenger: “Bro, how could a ride-hailing driver like you have so many invitations? Is it fun to use fake invitations to deceive people? I’ll call my

7) Chapter 289 Inviting Yang Chen to Acquire Penguin Technology Equity _ How Can a Ride-Hailing Driver Like Me Have Some Money?

sister and have her report this to headquarters. LVMH Group will hold you responsible, and you’ll be finished.”

Yang Chen: “What was the name of the second shareholder of LVMH Group that your sister mentioned just now?”

Male passenger: “Yang Chen, it sounds like this.”

Yang Chen took out his work ID and showed it to them, saying, “I am Yang Chen. Your sister is Luo Xi from the Guomao Hui store, right?”

The three passengers were immediately shocked. Could he be the second shareholder of LVMH Group?

The male passenger was so shocked that he couldn’t speak properly, stammering, “You… you are the second shareholder of LVMH Group? Impossible! You can buy so many shares of LVMH Group, how could you still be driving a ride-hailing car?”

Yang Chen: “Can’t I experience life? Leave your invitation and get out of the car now. Otherwise, I’ll call Wu Yue and have her hold your sister responsible. You’re using LVMH Group’s invitation to pick up girls, and you even want to play with two at once. It’s okay if nothing happens, but if something does happen and they expose it online, netizens will definitely blame LVMH Group indiscriminately. Do you know how much negative impact this will have on the group? I have so many shares in my hand, even if the stock price drops by 1%, my losses will be in the hundreds of millions.”

The two girls showed gloating smiles.

Male passenger: “You… you say you’re the second shareholder, but are you really the second shareholder? Can’t there be someone with the same name?”

Yang Chen called Wu Yue, explained the situation, and asked her to have Luo Xi handle it.

Wu Yue quickly called Luo Xi and scolded her severely.

Afterward, Luo Xi called her younger brother Luo Feng, who was the male passenger.

“Luo Feng! What are you doing? Didn’t I tell you not to show off the invitation outside? How dare you use LVMH Group’s invitation to pick up girls in front of the second shareholder?” Luo Xi roared.

The male passenger was stunned and said, “He… he really is the second shareholder? But why is he driving a ride-hailing car?”

Luo Xi: “Can’t rich people be bored, experience life, and pass the time? Wang Nianming has nothing to do and picks up girls everywhere every day, is that any of your business? Quickly apologize to Mr. Second Shareholder and put down the invitation! If you affect my work because of this, see how I deal with you when I get back!”

Male passenger: “Got… got it.”

Hanging up the phone, the male passenger quickly took out his invitation and placed it on the dashboard.

“Mr. Yang, I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were the second shareholder of LVMH Group. If I had known your identity, I definitely wouldn’t have dared to mess around in front of you. It’s all my fault, please forgive me and don’t blame my sister,” the male passenger said humbly.

Yang Chen waved his hand, signaling him to get out of the car quickly.

“Okay, okay. I’ll get out of the car right away. Mr. Yang, please forgive me. I will never do this kind of thing again,” the male passenger said慌忙 [huāngmáng – flusteredly], quickly opened the door and got out of the car.

Girl in red: “Handsome, thank you. Are you free tonight? We’ll treat you to dinner.”

Girl in white T-shirt: “Yes! You make the arrangements, we’ll pay, and we’ll listen to you tonight. How about it?”

Yang Chen: “No, I have an appointment tonight.

8) Chapter 289 Inviting Yang Chen to Acquire Penguin Technology Equity _ How Can a Ride-Hailing Driver Like Me Have Some Money?

You two remember what you promised me. I will be at the event that day. If I find out that you two didn’t do what I said, I can’t guarantee what will happen to you.”

The two immediately became serious and quickly assured Yang Chen that they would definitely do what they said.

Afterward, the two quickly got out of the car.

Watching Yang Chen’s car drive away, the girl in red said, “There is such a perfect man in the world. Not only is he handsome, but he’s also so rich, and the key is that he’s so low-key. If I could become his woman, I wouldn’t have lived this life in vain.”

Girl in white T-shirt: “Stop dreaming! People like him have such good conditions, what kind of girl wouldn’t he be able to get? Even if we take the initiative to offer ourselves, he wouldn’t even look at us.”

…

It was getting late, so Yang Chen went directly to pick up Maya from work.

Having worked for so long, this was Maya’s first job.

It was obvious that she was very excited, and she trotted to Yang Chen’s car.

Maya: “Brother Chen, thank you for picking me up from work.”

Yang Chen: “Looks like you’re in a good mood today!”

Maya: “Hehe… I think working is so much fun. I used to not have to work, and I was bored every day. Now I know how much of a waste of life that was.”

People who work want to earn more money and retire early to enjoy life.

She’s good, she thinks enjoying life is a waste of life, and she actually wants to work.

Because it was a bit far from the Guojin Center, Yang Chen didn’t choose to go there, but instead chose the closer Guomao Hui [a high-end shopping district]. The LV store here just opened at the beginning of the year. Not only is the venue big enough, but the products are also the most complete.

After parking the car, Yang Chen led Maya towards the gate.

At this time, the two saw many people gathered around watching something.

Maya quickly pulled Yang Chen over.

It turned out that three young people in cycling clothes were “begging.”

In front of the three was a piece of cardboard with the words “Remote cyclists, because we are too hungry, we are asking for 20 yuan to eat a bowl of noodles. We hope that convenient friends can help us, we are very grateful.”

Damn, isn’t this the scam that arose a few years ago?

There are still people using it at this time.

Yang Chen paid attention and observed that Chinese people were not giving money, but some foreigners were giving money very generously.

Good guy, this is a scam set up for foreigners.

After all, Chinese people already know this is a scam, but foreigners don’t know.

Maya, who is proficient in five languages, can understand the words written on the cardboard.

Maya: “Brother Chen, they are so pitiful! Let’s help them.” Maya said, and then she was about to take out her wallet to give money.

Yang Chen quickly stopped her and said in a low voice, “They’re lying, don’t believe them.”

Maya: “Ah? Really? Look, they really are cyclists. They look really embarrassed, it’s impossible for them to be lying, right?”

While speaking, two more foreigners gave money, and they were still hundred-yuan bills.

Foreigners are really simple and easy to deceive. When it comes to playing tricks and strategies, Chinese people definitely beat all foreigners.

Yang Chen said in a low voice again, “Look, they have already received a lot of money, why are they still begging instead of going to eat noodles? This is a kind of scam, using people’s sympathy to cheat money. If you give them money, you will be cheated.”

Maya has a pretty stubborn temper, and said, “I don’t believe they are liars. If they really need help, I can really

help them. If they are liars, then it means they have no difficulties, isn’t that great?”

Damn, isn’t this a fool?

It seems that I have to teach her a lesson, otherwise she won’t be able to survive in China.

Yang Chen walked up to the three people, squatted down and said, “Are you three brothers hungry and want to eat noodles? Right?”

The three nodded.

Yang Chen also nodded and said, “Come on, I’ll take you to eat noodles. Pack up your things and come with me.”

“Brother, you don’t have to bother. If it’s convenient for you, just give us 20 yuan, and we’ll go eat by ourselves later.”

“Yes, thank you, brother.”

…

Yang Chen said with a smile, “No trouble, we also want to eat noodles, let’s go together. Let’s go, don’t be polite.”

Saying that, Yang Chen reached out to pull them.

The three quickly broke free from Yang Chen’s hand and resolutely refused to go with him to eat noodles.

“Brother, why don’t you go eat, don’t worry about us.”

“We’ll ask others for convenience, don’t worry about us.”

“Brother, go eat quickly. We can hold on for a while, and we’ll go eat by ourselves later. Thank you.”

…

Maya immediately asked, “Didn’t you say you were too hungry and wanted money to eat noodles? Then why don’t you go now that we’re inviting you to eat noodles?”

The onlookers laughed.

“Girl, isn’t it obvious enough? They are liars, cheating money, how can they be hungry and want to eat noodles?”

“This kind of scam has been around for many years. Now they can’t deceive Chinese people anymore, so they have locked their targets on you foreigners.”

“We Chinese people have many tricks, you foreigners slowly learn.”

“Haha…”

Seeing that they couldn’t cheat here anymore, the three quickly packed up their things and left.

The three came to the roadside, each opened the trunk of a BMW X5, folded the bicycles and put them in, then the three got in the car and drove away.

Those foreigners who gave money were dumbfounded.

“What the f**k!”

“They already have BMWs and they still come to beg?”

“F**k! I don’t even have a car!”

“Haha…”

Maya said angrily, “How can there be such people? Isn’t begging supposed to be a very embarrassing thing? Who would want to beg unless they have no other choice? But how can they use this method to cheat money? I really can’t figure it out.”

Yang Chen: “If you live in China for a longer time, you will see all kinds of things you have never seen before. Let’s go, go inside to buy things, and then go eat.”

The two came to the LV store.

Yang Chen did not reveal his identity and quietly waited in the rest area for Maya to choose clothes.

After a while, a strange phone call came in.

Yang Chen answered the phone and said hello.

The other party immediately said, “Hello, Mr. Yang, I’m sorry to bother you at this time. I am Zhang Hongbo, the president of the Gongji Road branch of the Commercial Bank. We met this afternoon.”

Yang Chen: “Oh. What’s the matter?”

Zhang Hongbo: “It’s like this, our president of the head office, Gu Ming, wants to meet you. He happened to be in Haicheng attending a financial summit, and it just ended. Do you have time to meet President Gu? We booked a private room in Tang Pavilion, let’s have dinner together.”

They must be for the transfer of funds.

Yang Chen replied, “No need, I’m not familiar with him, there’s nothing to talk about.”

Zhang Hongbo was about to cry and said, “Mr. Yang, please, I’m begging you. The head office knows that you transferred the funds and has ordered the dismissal of Li Hang and Chen Yan. If the funds cannot be recovered, I will also be taken down. I’m begging you, whether an agreement can be reached or not, please meet President Gu, otherwise I will have no room for maneuver. I’m really sitting in the office, and disaster comes from the sky. Mr. Yang, please.”

Originally, Yang Chen was thinking of not revealing his wealth, but now he can’t hide it.

“How about this, President Zhang, just tell President Gu that I am a major shareholder of Haicheng Bank, and he should be able to understand,” Yang Chen said.

Zhang Hongbo was stunned for a few seconds and said, “Ah? Mr. Yang is a major shareholder of Haicheng Bank?”

Yang Chen: “Yes! I just acquired 16% of the shares, barely making me a major shareholder. Just tell President Gu that, and he shouldn’t bother you to find me.”

Yang Chen hung up the phone.

At this time, he realized that everyone next to him was looking at him, and everyone’s eyes were full of shock.

They must be looking at him because Yang Chen is too handsome, it must not be for other reasons, yes, it must be so.

Yang Chen said with a smile, “I’m bragging. Don’t believe it!”

Everyone laughed awkwardly, with suspicion on their faces.

Is he really bragging?

In less than two minutes, another strange phone call came in.

Yang Chen answered the phone and said hello.

The other party immediately said, “Haha… Hello, Mr. Yang. I am Gu Ming, the president of the head office of the Commercial Bank. I am very happy to be able to talk to Mr. Yang.”

Wow, the president of the head office personally called, this is not giving up until Yang Chen’s funds are recovered!

Yang Chen: “Hello, President Gu. President Zhang told you, right?”

Gu Ming: “Yes, yes. However, we have already booked a meal at Tang Pavilion. If it is convenient for Mr. Yang, I still hope you can come out and have dinner together. Don’t worry, we will definitely not talk about funds. I have a very good investment opportunity that I would like to introduce to Mr. Yang.”

Yang Chen: “Is that so? What good opportunity?”

Gu Ming: “Mr. Yang should have heard that our Commercial Bank is a major shareholder of Penguin Technology. Our Commercial Bank holds 49% of the shares of Nanfei Newspaper, and Nanfei Newspaper holds 46% of the shares of Penguin Technology. Penguin Technology’s current profitability is very strong, and we have always wanted to recover more shares into the hands of Chinese people. Recently, our bank has reached a verbal agreement with Nanfei Newspaper, and they are selling 15% of the shares for 40 billion US dollars. We have been looking for like-minded friends to take down this 15% of the shares together. I wonder if Mr. Yang is interested in participating?”
