Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Chapter 406: Chapter 402 The Largest Shareholder (6th Update, Asking for Monthly Tickets)

Ye Chen walked up to the stage, took the gift box and certificate, and walked towards Luo Guofu with a big smile.

”Mr. Luo, thank you for your support of our Gucci. You bought the Star of the Stars for one hundred and fifty million. I’m sure your girlfriend will be very happy.” Ye Chen said with a smile.

”Happy? I feel like chopping you up into pieces, damn it.”

Luo Guofu was about to go crazy. It would have been fine if he’d just been fooled by Ye Chen, but damn it, Ye Chen was also the chairman of Gucci.

Am I the damn fool who spent money to help others get publicity?

However, given Ye Chen’s status, Luo Guofu didn’t dare do anything to Ye Chen. He took a deep breath and said, ”Chairman Ye, you’re too kind. My girlfriend loves it, so I would have bid no matter the cost.”

He appeared calm, but inside he was in agony.

In one fell swoop, Ye Chen had cost him two hundred and fifty million.

Although Luo Guofu was wealthy, losing two hundred and fifty million at once was still painful for him.

Ye Chen smiled at Ren Fei and said, ”President Ren, do you also like it?”

Ren Fei nodded: ”I originally wanted to buy it for my daughter.”

Ye Chen laughed: ”President Ren, you shouldn’t spend one hundred and fifty million on bidding; we’ll sell our last Star of the Stars to you at cost price, seven million.”

Hearing Ye Chen’s words, Luo Guofu was about to go mad again. Someone else bought it for seven million, and he bought it for one hundred and fifty million—this was clearly done to provoke him.

Luo Guofu’s face turned livid with anger.

”You bastard, you’d better not fall into my hands in the future, or I’ll make you pay.”

Even though he cursed Ye Chen in his heart, he still had to pretend to be smiling.

After giving out the gifts, Ye Chen returned to his original seat.

Just now, everyone was speculating about Ye Chen’s identity, and now knowing he was the chairman of Gucci, the way people looked at Ye Chen changed completely.

Ye Chen didn’t mind and continued to watch the auction.

Ye Chen successfully bid on all the remaining lots.

This time, with the Cashback Card, Ye Chen made a total of one billion.

The auction ended, and it was time for the dinner party.

Li Rongrong changed into an evening dress and approached Ye Chen.

”Ye Chen, thank you so much for supporting our auction.”

This time, thanks to Ye Chen, Li Rongrong’s company made quite a lot of money.

This made Li Rongrong very embarrassed.

Ye Chen smiled softly: ”It’s okay, brother has plenty of money, it’s nothing.”

Li Rongrong felt very warm inside.

After all, it was her first time hosting an auction, and she was very nervous. Because of Ye Chen, not only were all the lots sold at the highest prices, but she also gained a very good reputation.

On the other side, the more Luo Guofu thought about it, the angrier he got.

In the past, it was always him fooling others, and today he was fooled by Ye Chen.

”Gucci’s chairman? What’s so great about that? After all, Gucci’s headquarters is overseas.”

Just as Luo Guofu was thinking about how to deal with Ye Chen, his phone suddenly rang.

Just now, because of the auction, Luo Guofu had put his phone on silent, and now he saw that he had over a dozen missed calls.

The calls were all from his secretary, and Luo Guofu answered, ”Is something wrong?”

”President Luo, it’s not good; forty percent of our company’s shares have been bought by a mysterious buyer, and now the buyer is the majority shareholder of our company.”

”What? How could this happen? Who could buy our shares without anyone knowing?”

The secretary said, ”We just received the buyer’s information. His name is Ye Chen.”

”What? Ye Chen?” Luo Guofu was dumbfounded.

”Is it a young man in his twenties?” Luo Guofu asked, face darkening.

”Yes, President Luo, do you know him?”

Luo Guofu was at a loss.

”How could it be him again,” Luo Guofu exclaimed.

At this time, everyone was looking in Luo Guofu’s direction, puzzled and wondering what was going on.

Luo Guofu’s face was pale, and his eyes were vacant.

In the incredulous eyes of everyone, Luo Guofu walked over to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was chatting with Ren Fei, and seeing Luo Guofu approaching in a daze, he was also taken aback.

Seeing Luo Guofu’s expression, Ren Fei was also stunned.

Luo Guofu was known to be arrogant and hot-tempered.

Just now, Ye Chen had fooled him twice, and someone like Luo Guofu would definitely hate Ye Chen.

But now Luo Guofu looked at Ye Chen with awe.

Everyone around was also stunned.

Because they all noticed that Luo Guofu’s emotions were off.

”Today, President Luo was fooled so badly by Ye Chen, he definitely won’t let it go.”

”That’s right, I’ve heard that President Luo never suffers a loss.”

”They say President Luo fears no one and even went head-to-head with Brother Ma and Brother Teng.”

”Ye Chen is still too young. Of all people to provoke, he chose Luo Guofu.”

...

Everyone was ready to watch the drama of Luo Guofu confronting Ye Chen.

Many people had already taken out their phones, ready to record a video to post online.

But when Luo Guofu approached Ye Chen, he showed a fawning smile with a respectful expression.

”Mr. Ye, I’m really sorry for what happened earlier. I didn’t know you’d just become our Shield Group’s largest shareholder.”

Luo Guofu was very embarrassed.

But Ye Chen just smiled lightly: ”President Luo, you’re too kind. Let’s collaborate more in the future.”

Ye Chen was a visionary person. What had just happened was merely a small episode to him, not worth holding onto.

There are no eternal enemies; as long as interests align, everything is negotiable.

And Ye Chen understood that Luo Guofu, as the person in charge of Shield, was an indispensable choice.

Therefore, Ye Chen would not fuss over such a trivial matter.

What? Ye Chen actually became the largest shareholder of Shield?

Hearing Luo Guofu’s words, everyone was dumbfounded.

The audience was stunned by Ye Chen’s identity.

”Wow, this young man is amazing! Not only is he Gucci’s major shareholder, but he’s also become Shield’s largest shareholder!”

”That’s incredible!”

”How much money does this young man have anyway?”

”No wonder Luo Guofu turned into a sycophant; haha, this plot is hilarious.”

The next day, Ye Chen continued driving for DiDi.

Ye Chen picked up a young couple.

The guy started bragging as soon as he got in the car.

Bragging about how rich his family was.

His family owned a mine and had several luxury cars.

The girl was thrilled to hear this.

”Honey, have we booked the hotel yet?”

The guy replied, ”I wanted to book the Marriott Hotel, but all the rooms were booked out, what a shame.”

”Oh, it would have been nice to be at the Marriott Hotel.”

The guy sighed: ”Yeah, it’s really annoying, so much money and no place to spend it, quite frustrating.”

Ye Chen couldn’t stand it anymore.

This guy was a real blowhard.

The girl looked delighted: ”My husband treats me so well, it would be great to have a wedding at the Marriott Hotel.”

”Yeah, the Marriott Hotel is one of Modu’s most luxurious hotels, I heard a wedding there costs four to five million, but it’s not about the money, it’s about having nowhere to spend it.”

Actually, the guy was just boasting.

The guy’s family did have some money, but spending four to five million on a wedding was something he couldn’t bring himself to do.

At this moment, Ye Chen suddenly said, ”Buddy, if you want to book the Marriott Hotel, come to me, I have connections.”
