Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Chapter 125: Chapter 124: The True Big Shot (First Update, Please Subscribe)

Manager Li burst into laughter upon hearing Ye Chen’s words.

”Haha, you’re killing me, you have a Platinum Card? You must be kidding. Look at yourself, do you really think a loser like you would have a Platinum Card?” Zheng Long burst into laughter as well.

He had already spent a million at Hua Le, yet he never got the chance to apply for a Platinum Card.

Platinum Cards, after all, were a symbol of status. Zheng Long had, at one point, inquired about the possibility of obtaining one.

The response was that Platinum Cards weren’t something money could just buy. Only those super tycoons in Modu had the opportunity to possess a Platinum Card.

Yet, a loser like Ye Chen was claiming to have one—it seemed impossible.

Manager Li sneered and said, ”If you have a Platinum Card, you could indeed do whatever you want at Hualu, even commandeer any field you wish, but only the top elites in the business world have such a card. You...”

Looking playfully at Ye Chen, Manager Li displayed a mocking expression.

”...absolutely have no such qualifications.”

Everyone around shook their heads.

Though many people hoped Ye Chen would slap the faces of these snobbish elites, standing up for underdogs like them,

it seemed unlikely that a major business elite in Modu would be someone so young.

Moreover, Ye Chen’s attire was quite ordinary; he really didn’t seem like a business elite.

Ye Chen smiled slightly, slipped his hand into his pocket, and pulled out a white Gold Diamond Card in view of everyone.

”Sorry, I happen to have one.”

The scene instantly fell silent.

What?

Manager Li stared at the card in Ye Chen’s hand in stupefaction.

Was Zheng Long dumbfounded too?

How could this be?

How could a loser have a Platinum Card?

Li Rongrong also looked at Ye Chen in a daze.

Though she knew Ye Chen wasn’t an ordinary person, she wouldn’t associate him with elite tycoons in business.

The onlookers were equally stunned.

No kidding, does this young guy really have a Platinum Card?

Manager Li’s hands trembled as he took the Platinum Card, and after verifying it, his face turned ghostly pale.

”Mr. Ye, I’m sorry, you are indeed a Platinum Card member, you may continue playing on this course.”

Manager Li’s smile was terribly forced.

He regretted deeply; offending a big shot might cost him his managerial position.

Speaking to Zheng Long, Manager Li said, ”Mr. Zheng, please refrain from disturbing our Platinum Card clients. You need to leave immediately.”

The onlookers became vividly thrilled.

”Haha, brother, amazing! We thought you were Bronze, turns out you’re a King!”

”Your Golden Card was great, but this guy has a Platinum Card. Who’s the fool now?”

”Haha, these Golden Card members think they run the world, but look how low-profile those Platinum big shots are.”

...

Listening to the crowd’s sarcastic remarks, Zheng Long’s face turned ashen.

Impossible, impossible.

This kid was clearly just a DiDi Brother, how could he possess a Platinum Card?

There must be something amiss here.

Right! Zheng Long’s eyes suddenly lit up.

”Manager Li, isn’t this kid just a DiDi Brother? How could he have a Platinum Card? I suspect this card is fake.”

”Fake?”

Manager Li’s expression changed upon hearing this.

If it were a forgery, the situation would be terribly serious.

Zheng Long smirked at Ye Chen, ”Kid, you thought you could fake a Platinum Card to impress the girls and show off to Rongrong. Unfortunately for you, I caught you.”

Seeing Zheng Long so smug, Ye Chen looked at him as if he were an idiot.

Would I need a fake card just to woo women? What a joke.

Manager Li appeared a bit hesitant.

Zheng Long said, ”Manager Li, think about it, Hualu’s distribution of Platinum Cards is extremely strict. Only those who are top elites with status and connections are eligible. How can a DiDi Brother hold one?”

Manager Li took a deep breath and used his walkie-talkie, ”President Chen, there’s someone suspected of using a fake Platinum Card in the regular area. Please come verify.”

”What? Someone using a fake card?” President Chen was taken aback.

Hualu’s Platinum Cards, there were only ten issued, and each was held by a high-status figure. Who would dare use a fake card?

Chen Hong hung up and went to the No. 3 field.

Manager Li pointed at Ye Chen and said, ”This young man here just used a Platinum Card. I suspect it’s fake.”

Chen Hong took the Platinum Card, glanced at its number, 01!

His face suddenly changed.

Chen Hong suddenly remembered that the chairman personally called this morning, saying the No. 01 card had just been issued to a powerful figure named Ye Chen, instructing him to keep an eye out.

He didn’t expect the cardholder to show up so soon.

Chen Hong took a deep breath and respectfully asked, ”Hello, are you Mr. Ye Chen?”

”Yes, that’s me.”

Chen Hong quickly bowed and said, ”Mr. Ye, we apologize for our mistake, disrupting your game. On behalf of Hualu Golf Club, I apologize to you.”

Seeing Chen Hong bow and apologize directly to Ye Chen, Manager Li’s face suddenly changed.

Even Zheng Long was taken aback.

Who was Chen Hong? The president of Huale Group. In Modu, there were very few people who could make him bow.

Manager Li turned ghostly pale, realizing he had made a colossal blunder.

Ye Chen nodded, ”Can I now play golf in peace?”

”Yes, of course.” Chen Hong nodded repeatedly.

”Also, I find Manager Li and Zheng Long annoying. I hope I won’t see them the next time I play.”

”Absolutely, Mr. Ye, rest assured I’ll take care of it immediately.”

Saying this, Chen Hong turned and stared coldly at Manager Li.

”President Chen, I...”

Smack!

A sharp slap landed on Manager Li’s face.

”Li Dong, you’re fired. Go settle your accounts with finance immediately, and never set foot in Hualu Golf Course again.”

What?

Manager Li trembled and turned ghostly pale.

He never imagined that the ”loser” he despised was actually someone so formidable that he dared not provoke.

With just a word, the man had shattered his million-salary iron rice bowl.

Chen Hong turned his gaze to Zheng Long.

Zheng Long was still yammering, ”President Chen, why don’t you double-check; maybe there’s a mistake?”

Chen Hong snorted coldly, ”Mr. Zheng, your Golden Card has been revoked. The balance will be refunded to your account. From today, you’re blacklisted by Huale Group and permanently banned from entry.”

”What?” Zheng Long was dumbfounded.

He never dreamed that one word from Ye Chen would not only cost Manager Li his job, but also put himself on the blacklist.

”Chen Hong, what do you mean? I just recharged over a million here, and now you’re blacklisting me?”

Chen Hong snorted coldly, ”Blame yourself for offending someone you shouldn’t have. Security, escort him out.”

Two security guards, without explanation, dragged Zheng Long out of the golf course.

The onlookers were stunned.

This plot twist was simply too satisfying.

This young man’s prowess was astonishing; he was not only low-key and substantial but also punished two people who offended him with just a word.

This is what being a big shot truly means!
