Who would still be a social slave when they are so rich?

Chapter 383: Just let you be the first to take action!
"please!"
Chen Fei stood at the side of the door of the presidential suite, made a please gesture with his right hand in the air, and signaled Chen Yun to go first.
Seeing this, Chen Yun withdrew his thoughts, smiled and nodded to Chen Fei, straightened his coat, and strode towards the suite.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw two young men lazily lying on the sofa, holding a glass of watermelon juice in their hands, looking at them with a scrutinizing look.
Similarly, Chen Yun was also looking at Su Chen and the other two. With many years of experience in judging people, he always felt in his heart that the two young men in front of him were not as simple as he understood.
"Boss, this is Mr. Chen, the person in charge of Dingsheng Catering!"
At this time, Chen Fei walked up to Su Chen, pointed at Chen Yun and introduced him. This also made Chen Yun, who was lost in thought, come back to his senses and temporarily put aside the doubts in his heart.
Chen Yun took the initiative to step forward and greet Su Chen with a smile, "Mr. Su, nice to meet you. I am Chen Yun, the person in charge of Dingsheng Catering!"
Looking at the right hand extended to him, Su Chen stood up politely, shook hands with Chen Yun, and pointed to the empty sofa beside him, "Mr. Chen, please sit down!"
"I wonder what Mr. Chen would like to drink, tea or watermelon juice." Su Chen asked with a smile after Chen Yun sat down.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yun glanced at the two glasses of watermelon juice on the table and replied with a smile, "Watermelon juice, please. It's up to the host!"
This also showed that he was very humble and wanted to convey to Su Chen that he came here with utmost sincerity.
Naturally, Su Chen also understood the meaning of his words. A meaningful smile appeared on his face. He then glanced at Chen Fei beside him, indicating him to pour a glass of watermelon juice.
By the way, I also gave a bottle of mineral water to Wu Kang and others nearby as a token of my appreciation.
"Boss Su, the previous incident was a mistake made by our Dingsheng Catering Company. I solemnly apologize to you here. This time, I bring our Dingsheng's sincerity."
They drank the water and got to know each other. Seeing that Su Chen had no intention of talking about financing, Chen Yun took the initiative to bring up the topic.
Although doing so would make him lose his voice, there was no other way around it. With an annual revenue of 200 million yuan, Shufen Hotpot was such an attractive piece of fat, how could Chen Yun miss it?
Even though Dingsheng Catering may feel painful to cut losses now, once the time comes to reap the rewards, it will be the joy of a good harvest.
Short-term heartache and long-term generous benefits in the future, no matter who comes, they know what to choose!
Hearing this, Su Chen's mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at Chen Yun with a hint of teasing, and said jokingly: "Mr. Chen, it's not that I look down on your sincerity, but mainly because I don't have that confidence in you!"
"You, Dingsheng, can't show sincerity that satisfies me!" When Su Chen said the latter part, his tone became several degrees heavier, making his attitude clear.
But in Chen Yun's opinion, Su Chen's tricks were just to bargain over the amount of financing, and he had seen many such things before.
As long as he puts the amount agreed upon by the company's top management in front of Su Chen, I believe the corresponding cooperation can be reached soon.
"Hahaha, President Su, we at Dingsheng have successfully built no less than five national chain-level catering companies, and there are countless more in the province. We certainly have the strength and confidence to do this!"
After saying that, Chen Yun waved to the man in formal attire he brought with him. The man in formal attire quickly took out a document from his briefcase and placed it on the coffee table in front of Chen Yun.
"Mr. Su, please!"
Chen Yun confidently pushed the document in front of Su Chen and motioned him to take a look at the contents.
Su Chen smiled slightly and reached out to take the document. Before he could open it, Hou Ting, who had been watching the show, sat down next to him, his eyes fixed on the document in his hand.
This scene made Chen Yun a little dazed. He looked at Hou Ting carefully, fearing that Hou Ting was an unstable factor and would cause some unexpected events in the financing.
It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it carefully, but upon closer inspection, Chen Yun's eyes widened a lot.
He found that the young man sitting next to Su Chen seemed not as simple as he had imagined.
As the person in charge of Dingsheng Catering, I often go to some luxury stores, especially watches!
After all, for successful businessmen like them, a top-notch watch is their face.
Chen Yun could tell at a glance that the watch on Hou Ting's wrist was the stepping stone to the upper class, the RM17-01 top-level T-diamond tourbillon from the Richard Miller series, with a public price of up to million!
This watch is a limited edition, and there are only three in the whole country. In Chen Yun’s memory, these three watches were divided up by the top second-generation in the country.
He never thought that he would see this limited edition Richard Miller here.
As for whether the watch on Hou Ting's hand was fake, Chen Yun had no idea at all.
He also has his own circle, and they often get together to drink coffee, play golf, study famous watches, etc. He does have some good eyesight.
Knowing that Hou Ting was wearing the genuine article worth 1.2 million, Chen Yun suddenly became inexplicably nervous, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
It goes without saying that someone who can wear a watch of this level has a different background. If he can become friends with such a person, then... what is Su Chen's identity?
If you are in a different circle, there is no need to force yourself to fit in, because no matter how much you want to fit in, you won’t be able to.
Thinking of this, Chen Yun immediately turned his gaze to the document in Su Chen's hand, and his heart immediately rose. After all, there were many hidden pitfalls in that document.
Ordinary people certainly can't see it, but if they are top rich second-generations, they must have relevant experience in this area, there is no doubt about that.
After all, the path that Dingsheng Catering is taking now was created by the rich second generation in the past.
The room fell into silence. Apart from the slight breathing sound, the only sound was the sound of papers being flipped as Su Chen flipped through the pages.
But to Chen Yun, it sounded like a death warrant. He now understood the reason for his previous uneasiness.
They have never seriously investigated the existence behind Shufen Hotpot!
In just less than a year, the hotpot restaurant giant was able to expand its business to a monthly income of over 10 million yuan and have nearly 100 branches. There must be reasons behind this that they are not aware of.
"Mr. Su!" When Hou Ting turned to the page that contained the hidden terms of the bet, he immediately reached out and tapped on the document.
Su Chen read it carefully and found that it was just as Hou Ting said. If he didn't think about it carefully, when he saw this item, he would just pay a little attention to it and then choose to look at the next item.
Who blamed Dingsheng Catering for being so cunning? They set the column for the hidden gambling clause above the financing amount.
When most people turn to this page, the first thing they see is naturally the amount of financing, and they will subconsciously choose to skip the rest.
Hou Ting's voice seemed like a death warrant. Chen Yun thought that Su Chen and the others had discovered the trap in the contract, and he suddenly felt as if the sky had fallen.
Not only is Shufen Hotpot out of their reach, but it is also likely to offend an unknown rich second generation.
Just when Chen Yun felt hopeless, Su Chen's voice rang out.
"Five hundred million, 20% of the shares, wow, Mr. Chen, you guys at Dingsheng are quite bold."
Chen Yun came back to life instantly after hearing this, secretly thanking his lucky stars that Su Chen and the others had not discovered the hidden trap in the contract. The rich second generation man just now should have been referring to the amount of their financing.
Chen Yun finally figured it out, and the stone in his heart finally fell.
"Mr. Su, it's not that we at Dingsheng Catering have the courage, but that you at Shufen Hotpot have the capital!" Chen Yun said attentively.
Su Chen had always been paying attention to the changes in Chen Yun's expression. Seeing him look as pale as death before and now with a happy expression, Su Chen couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
"Five hundred million, twenty percent, that means that in your eyes, the valuation of Shufen Hotpot can reach about two and a half billion. Am I right?"
Generally, the valuation of unlisted companies is based on the price-to-earnings ratio method. The catering industry is a conventional industry, and the price-to-earnings ratio is generally ten times. If it is in the electronic high-tech industry, it is at least forty times or more.
This is also the reason why the valuations of so many technology or high-tech industries now reach tens of billions right from the start.
The total profit of all Shufen Hotpot branches is at least over 20 million per month, which is more than 200 million per year, almost 100 million. If you multiply it by ten, it should be between 2.5 billion and 3 billion.
The hot pot industry is definitely not full of business every month, and there must be some fluctuations in revenue. Dingsheng Catering can give a valuation of 2.5 billion, which is still very conscientious. "Mr. Su, you are right. This is the result of our company's in-depth analysis. I believe this valuation will satisfy you, Mr. Su!"
At this time, Chen Yun also regained the mentality that he should have as the person in charge of Dingsheng Catering. He spoke with confidence, without any trace of the panic he had before.
Seeing this, Su Chen couldn't help but chuckle and shook the contract in his hand, "It's you, Dingsheng, who are willing to lay out such a big bait. No wonder those catering companies in the past failed in your hands."
Stop pretending, I’m going to be honest with you!
It makes your mood change repeatedly, and the main purpose is to torture your mentality!
"Bait?" Chen Yun's heart skipped a beat, but he still forced himself to smile calmly and said, "Boss Su, what do you mean by that? We at Dingsheng sincerely want to cooperate with your Shufen Hotpot!"
"Snapped!"
Su Chen moved his wrist slightly and threw the contract in his hand onto the table, making a crisp sound.
"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it. You can find out the situation of Dingsheng with a little investigation. It's not a big deal!"
Hearing this, Chen Yun's face immediately turned gloomy, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, "Boss Su, you knew about Dingsheng's situation from the beginning. Did you agree to meet us just to trick us?"
"Nonono!" Su Chen raised his index finger in the air and said with a contemptuous smile: "I just let Dingsheng Catering be the first to take action!"
"When you hit a wall, no other investment bank will set its sights on Shufen Hotpot. After all, your Dingsheng experience is still a lesson for us."
Hearing this, Chen Yun no longer cared whether Su Chen and the other two had any hidden background. He stood up immediately. He did have someone to back him up.
Wu Kang and others behind him immediately stepped forward, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
Chen Yun sneered and stared at Su Chen condescendingly, "Mr. Su, our Dingsheng Catering is not made of dough. Not everyone can come up and knead it."
"As someone who has been through this, I would like to give Mr. Su some advice. It is good for young people to be arrogant, but being too arrogant will lead to failure!"
"Don't think that your friend's family background is not simple, so he can be so arrogant. The business world is all about profit. Who can guarantee that your friend's family will not have any ideas about Shufen Hot Pot!"
"You know, Sufen Hotpot is now a golden doll walking in the city. Everyone who sees it wants to come up and take a bite."
Su Chen did not expect that Chen Yun, this old fox, not only threatened him, but also tried to sow discord between him and Hou Ting.
If Su Chen was just the young Mr. Su of Shufen Hotpot, Chen Yun's words might have planted the seeds of doubt in his heart.
But Su Chen is not just the boss of Shufen Hotpot...
Su Chen looked at Chen Yun with a playful expression, "I didn't expect Mr. Chen to be so eloquent. I'm just curious where Mr. Chen got the confidence from!"
"Is it Dingsheng Catering? Or..." Su Chen paused deliberately, looking at Chen Yun's puzzled expression, and said word by word: "Or is it the confidence given to you by the Guo family in Hong Kong?"
Hearing the words "Hong Kong Guo Family", Chen Yun seemed to have suffered a heavy blow. He staggered and collapsed on the sofa, looking at Su Chen with fear on his face.
"Who the hell are you? How do you know that the Guo family is behind Dingsheng Catering?"
The backing of their Dingsheng Catering was a very secretive matter. In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, very few people knew about it, and he only had four or five people.
Su Chen shrugged and pouted, "Who am I? Mr. Su from Shufen Hotpot, don't you know?"
"As for your Dingsheng's backers, it's not that difficult. You can find out with a simple investigation!"
"By the way, Mr. Chen, I have always had a question in my mind. As far as I know, the Guo family's business in Hong Kong does not involve the catering industry. Logically speaking, they will not extend their tentacles to the mainland to get involved in the catering industry."
"Can you tell me who is behind you in the Guo family?"
"Of course... you don't have to tell me. Then I can only call Guo Hanwen, the person in charge of the Guo family, and ask him what's going on."
Chen Yun was completely stunned. He never thought that Su Chen knew so much about the Guo family and even knew that the person in charge of the Guo family was Guo Hanwen.
Even he only found out about it by chance.
Looking at the faint smile on Su Chen's face, Chen Yun felt inexplicably cold all over.
He knew that this time, Ding Sheng had hit a wall made of special alloy steel!
Chen Yun knew that if he wanted to resolve today's matter, he had to explain everything honestly. Otherwise, someone would take care of him even without Su Chen taking any action.
He had no doubt about Su Chen's words and believed that Su Chen had the ability to talk to someone from the Guo family on the phone.
After taking several deep breaths, Chen Yun finally calmed down. Just as he was about to speak, Chen Fei's phone rang.
Chen Fei smiled embarrassedly and quickly walked to the side to answer the phone. Chen Yun's thoughts were interrupted by this sudden incident.
So he just confessed directly: "It's Guo Jiahao, the eldest son of the Guo family!"
After saying this, Chen Yun felt as if his spine had been pulled out. He leaned weakly on the sofa with a look of dejection on his face.
Before Su Chen could say anything, Fade Chen walked over to Su Chen and whispered something in his ear. A strange look flashed across Su Chen's face, and he muttered, "What a coincidence!"
"Go downstairs and pick me up!"
Chen Fei nodded after hearing this, then turned around and left the presidential suite.
Su Chen also looked at Chen Yun who had no fighting spirit and said, "Okay, let's leave it at that. If Guo Jiahao has any opinions, ask him to call Chen Feiyu!"
"Also, I hope you won't tell anyone about what happened today. I believe that Mr. Chen and all the elites can handle this little thing!"
Su Chen's eyes swept over Wu Kang and others. No one dared to look at him and they all lowered their heads.
"Boss Su, we must keep this secret!" Although Chen Yun didn't know who Chen Feiyu was, his backer definitely knew him.
He didn't expect that this matter would just pass like this. He stood up, bowed to Su Chen, and prepared to leave with his men.
Just after walking a few steps, Su Chen's voice came from behind, "Li Hao is my old classmate. I hope Mr. Chen will not make things difficult for him because of this relationship."
Chen Yun quickly stopped and immediately said that such a thing would never happen.
Only after Su Chen waved his hand did he leave the room.
Chen Yun and his companions stood at the elevator entrance, having not yet recovered from their previous state and seemed to be still digesting the situation they had encountered before.
"All of you keep your mouths shut. I don't want anyone else to know what happened today. Otherwise, don't blame me for not remembering our friendship!" Chen Yun came back to his senses and glanced at Wu Kang and the others with a fierce look.
Wu Kang and others naturally understood the logic behind this and nodded repeatedly to show that they understood.
"Ding!"
Chen Yun originally wanted to say something, but the sound of the elevator interrupted his thoughts.
When the elevator door opened, he was stunned when he saw Chen Fei coming out with four or five people.
It was not until Chen Fei and his group walked into the room and there was a bang on the door that they were brought back to their senses.
"Mr. Chen, just now...if I saw correctly, the person following Chen Fei was Mr. Lei from Xiaomi!" Wu Kang asked stutteringly.
"Gulu!"
Chen Yun swallowed nervously. He finally understood that Su Chen was the hidden boss, and he was also a prehistoric giant crocodile.
Even someone of Mr. Lei's status and position came to see Su Chen in person, so what is his status...
Thinking of this, Chen Yun hurriedly walked into the elevator. He wanted to leave this place of trouble as soon as possible. Only by flying back to the Magic City could he feel at ease!
