Who would still start a business seriously after being reborn?

Chapter 213: Are You Really Planning to Use Your Arms to Stop a Chariot? (Third Update!)

Chen Zhi's tone was very calm, without any emotion, as if everything Cheng Yi had done before had nothing to do with him.

If Chen Zhi makes a fuss and uses five spears, Cheng Yi won't care much.

But Chen Zhi's attitude suddenly changed, which made Cheng Yi alert.

As the saying goes, a dog that bites doesn't bark.

Cheng Yi suddenly felt that he had underestimated Chen Zhi.

Most of the younger generation in Lianjiang dropped out of school after graduating from junior high school to run their family's video game business. Chen Zhi also has a junior high school education. He has been following the Tianqin Group in its conquests since he was fifteen years old. The ability cultivated in practice cannot be compared with an academic degree.

In his previous life, Chen Zhi became the richest man in Southeast Asia in 2013. This alone proves his personal ability.

Cheng Yi laughed and said, "Mr. Chen called me personally, which made me a little nervous."

Chen Zhi said calmly, "Boss Cheng, can we meet and talk?"

"Of course." Cheng Yi said, "Where to?"

Chen Zhi smiled and said, "Let's go to the place where we first met. I'll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Yi felt a little strange.

The place where we first met? Why does it seem like they're getting back together?
After paying for the meal, he rode his scooter to the Handong Hotel after repeated persuasion from Zhang Gang.

More than half an hour later, a BMW Z4 sports car stopped at the entrance of Handong Hotel. At the entrance, a girl dressed very fashionably was putting her hands in her pockets, chewing gum in her mouth, and staring at Chen Zhi who got out of the car with a bad look.

"Sister Duo? You're back from Hong Kong?" Chen Zhi looked at Su Duo, who had a bad face, and said in a feigned surprise, "I haven't seen you for a year. You're getting more and more beautiful."

"Keep pretending." Su Duo said unhappily, "Don't you know whether I'm coming back or not?"

Su Duo looked at Chen Zhi and asked, "Chen Zhi, you are quite arrogant. You even need to use our reception hall to receive a guest?"

Chen Zhi said: "I am going to receive a distinguished guest this time, and this reception hall is of great significance to me."

Su Duo swung the key in her hand and said, "Let's go, I'll open the door for you."

"You open the door? How dare I ask Sister Duo to open the door for me personally?" Chen Zhi said, "Is there no service staff in our hotel?"

"You're as smart as a monkey. You can't figure out why I opened the door for you?" Su Duo said unhappily, "I opened the door for you because I want you to stop coming to our reception hall."

The smile on Chen Zhi's face suddenly froze.

At this moment, Su Boyu walked over quickly with several tall waitresses. Seeing Su Duo at the door, Su Boyu shouted angrily, "Su Duo! If you mess around again, I'll put you in solitary confinement for another seven days!"

Su Duo's pretty face showed a hint of timidity, and she said, "I'm not kidding. I haven't seen Chen Zhi for a long time, so I came over to chat with him and help him open the door to the reception hall."

"The reception hall is staffed by dedicated staff, so how could it be your turn?" Su Boyu angrily asked, "Where's your key? Take it out."

Su Duo handed over the key reluctantly.

Su Boyu glared at Su Duo fiercely, then looked at Chen Zhi, who remained calm, and said, "Chen Zhi, did that girl do anything to you?"

"No, Sister Duo just wanted to help me open the door." Chen Zhi replied with a smile.

"That's good." Su Boyu finally smiled and said, "Chen Zhi, who are you entertaining this time? You'd better tell me the number of people and I'll have the service staff prepare in advance."

Chen Zhi said: "No need to prepare, I only invited one person this time."

"One person? Then you need to use the reception hall?" Su Boyu was stunned. Their reception hall is the highest-standard reception venue in Handong Province. It charges 2000 yuan for half a day, which is definitely a sky-high price.

Although he didn't accept Chen Zhi's money, it did sound a bit outrageous to use the reception hall just to invite one person.

Chen Zhi smiled and said, "This person is very important to me."

"Your girlfriend?" Su Duo asked with a gossipy look on her face.

"He is a man." Chen Zhi frowned.

"Do you like men?" Su Duo's expression was as if she had discovered a new world.

"Pa!" Su Boyu slapped Su Duo on the head. Su Duo held her head and grimaced in pain.

Just then, everyone saw a pedal car coming from a distance.

Seeing Cheng Yi on the pedal of Mulan, Chen Zhi immediately straightened his clothes and hurried out to greet him.

"Is this the person Chen Zhi wants to receive?" Su Baiyu was also confused.

Cheng Yi parked his pedal car next to a row of luxury cars, took off his helmet and hung it on the handlebars. Then he looked at Chen Zhi who was walking quickly and said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, you're here so early."

Chen Zhi politely extended his hand and said, "Let's get to know each other again, Chen Zhi."

"Does it need to be so formal?" Cheng Yi shook hands with Chen Zhi and said with a smile, "Cheng Yi."

"Hi, Cheng Yi." Su Duo seemed to see the burning gay love. She covered her head with one hand and waved the other hand to greet Cheng Yi.

Cheng Yi smiled and nodded at Su Duo, then said to Chen Zhi, "What does Mr. Chen want to talk to me about?"

"Please come in first, we'll chat while drinking tea." Chen Zhi smiled slightly and made a gesture of invitation.

At this moment, Chen Zhi did not have the slightest rebellious air and appeared very peaceful.

However, the more Chen Zhi acted like this, the more uneasy Cheng Yi felt.

It seems that when Chen Zhi met those Internet cafe owners here for the first time, he deliberately pretended to be rebellious.

After all, those Internet cafe owners just fall for that.

"Cheng Yi, take me with you and I'll pour tea for you." Su Duo tried hard to be allowed to go with them.

"Just stay here." Su Boyu extinguished Su Duo's hope with just one sentence, and then ordered a group of service staff to take Chen Zhi and Cheng Yi to the reception hall.

After Chen Zhi and Cheng Yi walked away, Su Boyu asked, "Do you know this Cheng Yi?"

"Yes, we are good friends." Su Duo said quickly. "What does he do?" Su Boyu asked again.

"He runs an internet cafe." Su Duo said with a smile, "He's the guy who sent Zhou Rongjun to jail."

"So it's him." Su Boyu suddenly realized, "This guy is quite ruthless. It seems that Chen Zhi wants to win him over."

Cheng Yi and Chen Zhi walked into the reception hall, and Chen Zhi said with a smile, "Boss Cheng, please take a seat."

Cheng Yi sat in the guest seat in the reception hall and said, "Mr. Chen, there's no need for you to beat around the bush. I'm a straightforward person and don't like to play tricks. If you have something to say, just say it directly."

"Okay, I don't like to play tricks either, so I'll just be frank." Chen Zhi said, "You should have some understanding of our Tianqin Group, right?"

"Yeah." Cheng Yi nodded and smiled, "It's a household name."

Chen Zhi said, "Although we've had many conflicts and misunderstandings before, it can be said that we've known each other for a long time. After these few encounters with you, I think you're a talented person, so I'd like to invite you to join our Tianqin Group and bring Momo Internet Cafe with you."

Cheng Yi looked at Chen Zhi in feigned surprise and said, "Our Momo Internet Cafe is just a small internet cafe in a remote corner. How can we be qualified to join your Tianqin Group?"

Chen Zhi smiled and said, "Boss Cheng, you're being too self-deprecating. Let me be frank. I'd like to invite you to the position of Assistant General Manager of Tianqin Group, with an annual salary of one million. In addition, I will hand over full responsibility for the internet cafe industry in Jingzhou City to you."

"It seems that you haven't taken over the Internet cafe business in Jingzhou City yet?" Cheng Yi said with a smile.

Chen Zhi smiled and said, "It will only be in these few days."

"As far as I know, Qi Yong seems to be on a roll right now," Cheng Yi said.

Chen Zhi didn't say anything. He took out a document from his arms and placed it on the mahogany tea table between the two of them.

"What is this?" Cheng Yi picked up the document and took a look at it, his expression changed slightly.

Dingsheng Internet Cafe Transfer Agreement

He read the contract carefully, his eyes full of disbelief.

Qi Yong actually sold Dingsheng Internet Cafe?
Chen Zhi smiled and said, "No one in this world can resist money. Qi Yong's internet cafe has 2600 computers, but most of them are Pentium 2s. Their combined value is no more than six million. After deducting various expenses, his internet cafe's annual profit is about five million. If I give him thirty million directly, it's like giving him four years of profit for free."

"He's already told me everything, including the plan you taught them." Chen Zhi chuckled, "I have to say, your plan is perfect. If it were based solely on my 100 million in funding, I might actually be dragged down by you."

"However, what our Tianqin Group lacks the least is money. One hundred million is just a test of the waters. The real funds I have are three hundred million."

There was a hint of pride in Chen Zhi's words.

Even Cheng Yi felt suffocated when he heard about such a huge amount of funds.

Spending 300 million on the internet cafe industry in Jingzhou City? When will this be recouped?

Chen Zhi looked at Cheng Yi and continued, "While our Tianqin Group isn't short of money, we're very short of talent. If you're willing to bring Momo Internet Cafe to join us, I'll secure a 1% stake for you. Our Tianqin Group's total assets this year are 71 billion, with revenue of 26 billion and a net profit of 17 billion last year. I don't need to calculate your dividend, do I?"

Qi Yong sold the Internet cafe quietly, which was beyond Cheng Yi's expectations. Once the news of Qi Yong selling the Internet cafe spread, the Jingzhou Internet Cafe Alliance would be defeated in a few days.

I have to say that Chen Zhi really understood the character of entertainment bosses like Qi Yong very well.

"Let me think about it first." Cheng Yi said with a smile: "After all, I am still the rotating chairman of the Jingzhou Internet Cafe Alliance. If I also vote, then the other Internet cafes will have no chance of survival. I don't think you are so kind as to use the price of acquiring Dingsheng Internet Cafe to acquire other Internet cafes."

"Of course, but I can buy your Momo Internet Cafe for a price far exceeding Dingsheng Internet Cafe's, and the shares I promised you will remain unchanged." Chen Zhi said, "I can offer 5000 million for your Momo Internet Cafe."

"Boss Cheng, starting a business is no easy task. Just save this 50 million, and then add the tens of millions in dividends every year, and you won't have to work hard for the rest of your life."

The conditions offered by Chen Zhi are really tempting.

If it were any other Internet cafe owner, he probably wouldn't even hesitate.

Cheng Yi said: "I still want to bring them to fight with you again."

Chen Zhi's face darkened slightly, and he said, "Boss Cheng, can't you see the current situation clearly? What can you use to fight me? In less than seven days, I can buy out all the internet cafes in Jingzhou City. By then, I'll have a hundred or so internet cafes that will maintain their original prices as my backing. I can easily set up a dozen internet cafes next door to compete with you in a price war. How can you resist?"

"Your analysis is correct." Cheng Yi nodded slowly and said, "But I still want to give it a try. If I can't beat you, I will surrender and bring the entire Momo Internet Cafe to join your Tianqin Group."

"Is there any need to fight? You know it's a losing battle." Chen Zhi began to doubt his own judgment.

Could it be that Cheng Yi is a paranoid?
If he is really a paranoid, then he is not qualified to be his assistant.

Or, is he confident that he can win? This absurd thought emerged in Chen Zhi's mind.

The method he is using now is a typical example of using force to defeat skill.

There is no need for too many fancy business tactics, just direct financial crushing.

Chen Zhi put himself in the other person's shoes and thought carefully for a long time, but he still couldn't think of any possibility of winning.

"How can we know the result if we don't try?" Cheng Yi stood up with a smile and said, "If Mr. Chen has nothing else to do, I'll take my leave."

"Boss Cheng, why are you doing this?" Chen Zhi pressed. "I sincerely want to invite you to join our Tianqin Group. Together, we can move north and capture the northern market."

"When I came here, an elder advised me to agree to cooperate with you, no matter how harsh the conditions you put forward." Cheng Yi stopped and smiled.

"Your elder is right. He's doing this for your own good." Chen Zhi said, "We at Tianqin Group never mistreat any of our partners."

"My elder advised me because he rejected your offer." Cheng Yi looked back at Chen Zhi with a bright smile on his face. "He tasted the bitter fruit of rejecting you. I'm curious about what it feels like, so I want to have a taste of it too."

The smile on Chen Zhi's face disappeared instantly. He watched Cheng Yi leave the reception hall without saying a word of persuasion, because he saw determination and madness in Cheng Yi's eyes.

This young man really intends to try to stop a chariot with his bare hands.

"What a pity." Chen Zhi sighed and murmured, "With his ability, he will definitely leave a name for himself in the business world within five years. Oh, I hope he won't be depressed after losing everything."

Chen Zhi took out his cell phone, made a call, and said, "Negotiations failed, let's execute the plan."

Cheng Yi walked out of the reception hall, feeling his blood boiling. He took a deep breath and said to himself, "It seems that it's time to show off my talents a little bit."
