#427 - Chapter 427: Mocking in person, regaining face? Fully mobilized, even the last meal he wanted
Pfft!
Li Lan, who was about to demand an explanation, almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Back then, her son had used his bonus to invest for them, with the agreement that profits would be distributed proportionally.
But…
That feeling was so surreal.
The facts proved it was all true.
But…
How old was his son?
How did he inexplicably become the chairman?
Where did the startup capital come from?
And how did he do it?
"Don't believe it?" Chen Hao asked with a smile.
"Believe… don't believe…"
"Let's go!"
Chen Hao put his arm around his dad's shoulder: "Old Chen, I'll take you to see the world."
Chen Fuhai nodded blankly.
He didn't even notice that his son was slinging an arm around his shoulder like a buddy.
…
In the reception room.
Liu Zhi waited with his legs crossed.
A look of smugness on his face.
Finally, he saw Xia Qingyan and Chen Hao enter, followed by a middle-aged couple.
Not important!
Ignoring the middle-aged couple, he stood up with a smile: "Chairman Chen, I was just passing by Shanghai and thought I'd stop by."
Both parties held prominent positions.
Even if they wanted to strangle each other, they still had to maintain superficial courtesy.
Liu Zhi cared about appearances, but Chen Hao didn't: "I had someone check the flights. Chairman Liu flew directly to Shanghai. You just arrived and came to see me—is that 'passing by'?"
Xia Qingyan almost burst out laughing.
The Lius were clearly here to see a joke!
However…
Who's the joke?
It will soon be revealed!
"You…"
Exposed by Chen Hao, Liu Zhi was immediately enraged: "Chen Hao, don't think I don't know. The domestic 70nm chip is just a bluff—North America has already debunked it. You think you can fool me?!"
"You found out?" Chen Hao chuckled.
"What? Exposed by me, you have to admit it?!" Liu Zhi said coldly.
"But…"
Chen Hao shrugged and pouted: "That day, in front of thousands of people, why did you beg me?"
Pfft!
Liu Zhi almost vomited blood on the spot.
That's right.
At the debate, realizing he was facing a desperate situation, he disregarded all pride and begged Chen Hao on the spot.
He had completely lost face!
The reason he came to Shanghai specifically and mocked Chen Hao face-to-face was actually…
To regain the face he lost that day when he begged in public.
Too bad.
The face that was lost was already lost.
Even if the chip news was fake, even if he mocked Chen Hao today, could he get his lost face back?
"I was deceived by you that day!" Liu Zhi gritted his teeth.
"So, what does that prove?"
Chen Hao chuckled: "Discovering that Lenovo was about to die, you disregarded all face and wailed and begged for mercy in front of thousands of people. Once you discovered that it wasn't the case, you came specifically to mock me—it can only prove that you are a petty person."
Damn it!
Liu Zhi was really about to vomit blood this time.
But…
He couldn't refute it!
Back then, he was the one who begged.
Now, he was also the one who mocked.
The image of a fickle and petty person was perfectly portrayed.
On the other side.
Chen Fuhai was completely stunned.
During the previous conversation, he didn't know who Liu Zhi was. He just felt… like he had seen him somewhere.
Until his son said the word 'Lenovo'.
He remembered!
This was the chairman of Lenovo, whom he had seen on TV and in newspapers!
And at this moment.
Liu Zhi, a person with an extraordinary identity, was being publicly slapped in the face by his son!
"Hmph!"
Liu Zhi was about to leave immediately, leaving behind a sentence: "Chen Hao! Stop pretending! I never took Chuangshiji's laptops seriously. Sooner or later…"
"President Liu is leaving?" Chen Hao said with a smile.
"What? Want to keep me for dinner?"
"Yes! I want to treat President Liu to a last meal."
"You…"
Liu Zhi was startled: "Chen! Don't think that just because you are the country's white glove, you can do whatever you want—do you dare to commit murder in broad daylight?!"
Alright.
He thought Chen Hao was going to attack him in anger.
This was Hanteng Capital.
It was the other party's territory!
"As a law-abiding citizen, how could I possibly commit murder and arson?"
Chen Hao grinned: "The last meal is for Lenovo to eat."
Suddenly!
Just as he finished speaking.
Li Ju walked in quickly.
As soon as she entered, she saw Liu Zhi at a glance and smiled coldly: "Chairman Chen, the funds are in place…"
What the hell?
Her voice stopped abruptly.
She stared wide-eyed, blankly looking at the couple standing against the wall: "Second sister? Second brother-in-law?!"
"Xiaoju…" Li Lan's voice trembled.
Her younger sister claimed to be working in Shanghai.
But…
Not only did she see them here, but she also called her son 'Chairman Chen'?
Her younger sister was working for her son?!
Li Ju came back to her senses and guessed the reason. She said with an embarrassed smile: "Well… I'll work first, and we can talk slowly later."
Chen Fuhai and Li Lan looked at each other.
It was said.
That his daughter-in-law's older sister was the CEO of a large group…
It was said.
That his second younger sister was a financial director in a big company…
But it turned out.
They were all in his son's company!
"Chen Hao!"
Confirming that Chen Hao wasn't going to attack, Liu Zhi felt confident: "Stop playing tricks on me! Funds in place… You think you're a Wall Street tycoon? Haha! You wouldn't be trying to short Lenovo, would you?"
"I always thought you were both stupid and malicious, but it seems you're smarter than I thought." Chen Hao grinned.
You saw through it?
Liu Zhi was stunned.
What did the other party mean?
Li Ju then revealed a cold smile: "The signing is complete. 22.7 billion US dollars is already in place and will be transferred to certain specific accounts through the channels prepared by Chen Hao."
Plus the company's previous account of over 140 billion.
A total of 330 billion Chinese yuan!
Network Department.
Even earlier, a group of hackers led by Gong Wei hacked into mainstream websites in Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea.
What they were going to do was…
To make a test video go viral around the world in a short time!
Of course.
It also had to spread instantly within China.
But the domestic network didn't need Gong Wei's help. The Strategic Deception Bureau also had internet trolls.
The difference was.
The Strategic Deception Bureau's internet trolls not only had to upload that test video, but also another video.
"Chen Hao! You… you dare to scold me?!" Liu Zhi roared in anger.
Who was stupid and malicious?
Bastard!
How dare he scold me!
"10…" Chen Hao grinned.
"Are you sick?!" Liu Zhi was even more angry.
"9…" Chen Hao was still smiling.
"You f***ing…"
Suddenly!
Liu Zhi's phone rang.
Seeing that it was his right-hand men calling, he immediately pressed the answer button: "What's the matter?"
"President Liu, something bad has happened!"
On the phone, the vice president was panicked: "The internet… a large number of test videos have suddenly appeared online!"
"What test videos?"
"A performance comparison between the domestic 70nm chip and the most advanced international 130nm chip!"
"What?!"
"Also! All of Chuangshiji's specialty stores have posted advertisements today."
"What advertisement?"
"All laptops sold by Chuangshiji will be replaced with domestic chips…"
The vice president was almost crying: "We haven't tested it yet, but that test video doesn't look fake at all!"
Liu Zhi was instantly dumbfounded.
He looked at Chen Hao.
Chen Hao finished counting down to ten and looked at him with a strange look.
"President Liu!"
The phone hadn't been hung up.
After the vice president finished talking about the test video, he received another new message: "Something bad has happened! The debate… at the debate, that bastard Chen publicly said that neither Jiutian's storage devices nor domestic chips would be sold to us—that video has also been released!"
