Urban drama: Starting from rejecting Fan Shengmei on a blind date
Chapter 305: The auction in the Magic City, exploring Ding Yao's background
At this time, Zhou Chen had no idea that several women in his family had a conflict over the May Day holiday. After he sent his mother on the plane, he and his sister Zhou Xingchen went directly to a five-star hotel.
Because an auction will be held here, it is a very important auction for the Star Group because they want something at the auction.
"Sister, you knew I wasn't interested in the company's affairs, so why did you bring me here to participate in this auction?
I'd rather be at home with Guan Guan and the others. Coming here with you is a waste of my time."
Facing Zhou Chen's complaints, his sister Zhou Xingchen twisted his ear and then scolded him, "Can you be more ambitious? There are old acquaintances of yours at the auction today. Wouldn't it be nice if I brought you here to see the world?"
When Zhou Chen heard his sister mention old acquaintances, he quickly realized that his sister was talking about Ding Yao and Li Yang, whom he had met at the airport. Could it be that they also came to the Magic City for the auction?
Seeing that his brother seemed to understand, Zhou Xingchen quickly explained: "Our Xingchen Group and Li Group are both in the luxury goods business. At today's auction, there will be a pink diamond worth over 100 million yuan.
If we could get it today, it would be a huge gain for the company's reputation.
Even if we don't sell them and just collect them, it will be enough to make our Xingchen Group famous if it gets out. Our Xingchen Group wants to be a first-class luxury goods supplier in the country, and it is obvious that the Li Group also has the same idea.
So this time our two companies are competitors, and I believe they will not miss this good opportunity.
You don't want your sister to face them alone, right? I have no choice but to pull you over to help out."
Zhou Chen immediately understood, and he also became interested in the so-called pink diamond. Since Li Yang was fighting with his family, he would not let him take advantage no matter what.
Zhou Chen looked at his sister and asked softly, "Then what is our bottom line for this auction? After all, it's just a pink stone. We can't do a business that loses money.
I don't think I can make a name for myself just by getting a stone. Li Yang is such a shrewd person, I believe he will most likely argue with us at this auction. My advice is to quit while we're ahead and not fight to the death."
Zhou Xingchen is not a fool either. Li Yang is targeting him everywhere, and he is determined to win this auction. There will be a fierce competition.
"Don't worry, I have an idea. My reserve price for this auction is 6000 million, because the last time a pink diamond appeared in an auction in Hong Kong, it fetched million US dollars.
According to the current exchange rate, it would cost over 420 million. I believe that with the strength of the Li Group, Li Yang can raise it to 450 million at most. We can definitely get it for 500 million."
Haha, the sister in front of me is really a rich woman. She actually spent 500 million to buy a diamond. Although the system rewarded Zhou Chen with many items, most of them were physical objects and equity.
Zhou Chen's current income is just the rent of Building 20 in Ode to Joy and the million reward for conquering Horror.
As for the shares of Shengxuan Group, they are investments. He has no intention of selling them now, so the funds will never reach his hands.
The money earned by the mall is all on the mall’s books and has not been transferred to Zhou Chen’s personal account. In other words, the capital flow in the hands of Zhou Chen, the so-called rich second generation, is less than 100 million?
Of course Zhou Chen didn't understand why his sister spent 500 million to buy diamonds, but he wouldn't object because he rarely participated in the affairs of the Star Group.
Zhou Chen and his sister came to the banquet hall. Because the auction started at 10 o'clock, there was a cocktail party before the auction. The two siblings looked around and soon saw Li Yang and Ding Yao.
Zhou Chen frowned and said, "As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in a hundred battles. Let's go find out more about Li Yang.
I know Li Yang is a smart guy, but Ding Yao is a fool. Go over there and find a way to get Li Yang out of the way. I'll go talk to Ding Yao. I think we'll get something out of it."
Sister Zhou Xingchen looked in Li Yang's direction and nodded, but she still reminded him, "It's very simple to get Li Yang out of the way, but I'm afraid you'll fall into Ding Yao's trap.
That woman isn't as stupid as you think. She was able to trick you into breaking up with your family before. Are you underestimating her?
Zhou Chen chuckled twice and didn't explain too much. Are you underestimating me a little too much?
Seeing that his brother did not respond, Zhou Xingchen picked up a glass of wine and immediately walked towards Li Yang.
"Boss Li, the auction is about to start. Do you want to talk to me in private?"
When Li Yang saw Zhou Xingchen coming over, he immediately put on a smile. He certainly knew what this woman wanted to do by coming here. She must want to find out his cards.
"Xingchen, if you're interested, then of course I'll accompany you. I'm determined to win this auction.
Of course, if you are willing to marry me, then our two families will become one family, and I won’t mind giving this diamond to you.”
Zhou Xingchen felt disgusted when she saw Li Yang taking advantage of her verbally, but she endured it when she thought of the task Zhou Chen gave her.
The two of them found a corner and started chatting, testing each other's bottom line.
On the other side, Zhou Chen was not in a hurry to find Ding Yao to inquire about the situation, because he knew that Ding Yao would definitely come to find him.
Haha, this woman Ding Yao is now hooking up with Li Yang, so of course she has to come to Zhou Chen to show off, showing off that she is living a better life after leaving Zhou Chen. Needless to say, it is obvious that it is her inexplicable desire to win that is at work.
Sure enough, Zhou Chen's guess was correct. Just as he was drinking and looking around, the woman Ding Yao walked towards him.
At this time, Zhou Chen activated his skill of listening to women's hearts. He wanted to use this skill to test Ding Yao's bottom line.
"Zhou Chen, I thought you weren't coming to this auction. I was ready to see your Zhou family suffer a crushing defeat."
Zhou Chen laughed out loud, then took two steps forward towards Ding Yao, staring intently into her eyes. His intention was of course to put pressure on her.
Because only when a woman panics and loses her composure will she start to have wild thoughts, and only in this way can Zhou Chen know the information he wants to know.
"Ding Yao, aren't you being too arrogant? I just hooked up with Li Yang from the Li Group. Compared to my Xingchen Group, the Li Group is nothing. I don't know where you got the confidence to say you want to see me lose miserably.
With the strength of the Li Group, they can only offer a maximum of 450 million in this auction, and the financial resources of our Xingchen Group can completely crush the Li Group.
Haha, it’s okay to tell you, our bottom line is 550 million. I don’t think Li Yang has the confidence to spend so much money to fight us, so let’s wait and see who will be embarrassed then.
I want you to know that your new man, Li Yang, is a scumbag. He is a very cowardly man, otherwise he wouldn't have run away from home because of beating someone up."
Haha, Zhou Chen deliberately exaggerated the number by 50 million. Of course, there is a reason for doing so. Simply put, it is just a deliberate attempt to confuse people.
At this moment, Ding Yao was dumbfounded. She didn't expect Zhou Chen to expose his bottom line like this. Is he really confident, or is he fooling her?
