Chapter 130: Chapter 130: Go Hard
“Xu Yang can’t invest in ‘War Panther 2’ anymore?” Zhao Yulu was somewhat surprised, focusing on this.
“Yes, Xu Yang invested in ‘War Panther’ because everyone was bearish on it, and he picked it up cheaply. Now everyone is bullish on ‘War Panther 2’. Since he’s not an insider and has no background, naturally, he doesn’t stand a chance. With his capability, in front of those big capitals, he’s simply no match at all,” Chen Guanglei said with a smile.
“That makes sense,” Zhao Yuxin nodded, agreeing with Chen Guanglei’s analysis.
“Mr. Chen.”
At that moment, a voice came from the side.
Turning his head, he saw a portly middle-aged man approaching.
Chen Guanglei showed a smile on his face and, once the man approached, introduced him with a smile, “Yu Lu, this is Mr. Bi I mentioned earlier, the president of Xingchen Film and Television.”
Zhao Yulu nodded slightly in greeting, “Hello.”
Bi Guanghui sized up Zhao Yulu and, with a hint of amazement in his eyes, praised, “Mr. Chen, your girlfriend is really beautiful.”
Chen Guanglei just smiled, neither confirming nor denying it.
Zhao Yulu, however, upon hearing Bi Guanghui say this, immediately responded, “Mr. Bi, you’ve misunderstood. I’m not Chen Guanglei’s girlfriend, just an ordinary friend.”
“Is that so,” Bi Guanghui didn’t believe Zhao Yulu, thinking that even if she wasn’t now, she would be sooner or later.
For Chen Guanglei, taking down a woman was a very simple task.
Chen Guanglei, slightly displeased with Zhao Yulu’s anxious clarification of their relationship, didn’t show it and introduced, “Mr. Bi, Yu Lu is the vice president of Jia Sheng Guild. I brought her here today to discuss the business of celebrity endorsements with you. If possible, she will handle all the specific matters with you in the future.”
“Sure, sure. I think there’s a lot of potential in this venture. It’s a win-win situation. Let’s talk about it now before the celebrations officially start,” Bi Guanghui said.
“Sure,” Chen Guanglei naturally had no objections.
He came here mainly to talk about this matter.
As for watching female celebrities, he genuinely wasn’t too interested.
What female celebrities were like, he understood better than most.
Though he was just a minor rich second-generation, he had slept with more than one third- or fourth-tier female celebrity.
For a second-tier one, he had also slept with one after spending a lot of money.
A first-tier one, however, he had never slept with.
On the other side.
Zhao Yuxin, led by Xie Bei, was chatting happily with several top female celebrities like Reba, Yang Mi, and Ya Ya.
Everyone knew that Zhao Yuxin was the wife of Xu Yang, the largest investor in ‘War Panther’, so they naturally made an enthusiastic connection with her.
After all, Xu Yang was also the owner of the Jangdexi and Fengcai Guild.
For the promotion of ‘War Panther’, the Fengcai Guild was the biggest contributor.
Moreover, Jangdexi was extremely popular, and it was clear to everyone that it would become a giant in the restaurant industry in the future.
Xu Yang’s net worth could reach tens or even a hundred billion.
Making a connection with Xu Yang now was simply a pleasant surprise for them.
This time, Xu Yang’s investment in ‘War Panther’ was just a coincidence.
But who says Xu Yang won’t get involved in the film industry in the future?
If Xu Yang enters the film industry, he will definitely be a heavy-weight in capital.
Xu Yang chatted with several investors for a while, felt a bit of an urge to pee, and headed to the restroom.
On his way back, he saw Chen Guanglei heading towards the restroom.
Xu Yang had a very poor impression of Chen Guanglei and initially had no plan to bother with him.
However, Chen Guanglei blocked Xu Yang’s path.
“What do you want?” Xu Yang asked indifferently.
“Xu Yang, do you think you’re amazing just because you invested in ‘War Panther’ and made money?” Chen Guanglei sneered.
“I’ve never thought that way, and even if I did think I’m amazing, what’s it to you?” Xu Yang retorted coldly.
“It has nothing to do with me, but I just find you irritating. You probably already know that Chen Guanglei is making ‘War Panther 2,’ right? Do you think you still have a chance to invest in ‘War Panther 2’? Let me tell you, you don’t have a chance.” Chen Guanglei taunted with a mocking laugh.
“Who told you I don’t have a chance?” Xu Yang shot back.
“Do I need someone else to tell me that? You’re just a country bumpkin from a small county town. If ‘War Panther’ hadn’t been undervalued by everyone, and if Wu Jing hadn’t been desperate, do you think you’d have had a chance to invest? Let me tell you, you’re nothing in front of the big capital!” Chen Guanglei scoffed.
“Are you stopping me just to say all this?” Xu Yang asked coldly.
He had signed a priority investment agreement with Wu Jing, and it was for thirty percent of the financing.
He had no intention of explaining himself to the likes of Chen Guanglei; there was nothing to say.
“Of course, there’s more. Also, you’re out of the game. My dad’s Triumph Investment is a major shareholder of Star Film, which is a heavyweight in the film industry. Surely they can invest. Surprised? Jealous?” Chen Guanglei said with a smug smile.
“Surprise is out of the question, and jealousy even less so. Aside from having a rich father, what else do you have? Honestly, you don’t have any right to be proud in front of me. Given some time, even your dad won’t have any right to be proud in front of me.” Xu Yang responded coldly.
With the booming success of River Bottom, its valuation would likely exceed ten billion once it expanded to first-tier cities.
A second-generation rich kid from a family worth a few billion like Chen Guanglei really had no right to be proud in front of him.
Not only did Chen Guanglei lack this right, but so did Chen Guanglei’s father.
“Hmph, at least for today, don’t even think about getting an investment opportunity in ‘War Panther 2.’”
Chen Guanglei was no fool; he knew that if nothing unexpected happened, Xu Yang’s net worth would soon surpass his father’s.
The advantage he had over Xu Yang would soon be gone.
Today’s visit might be his last chance to look down on Xu Yang.
There might never be such an opportunity again.
“Whether I can get an investment opportunity in ‘War Panther 2’ or not, let’s not even talk about that. Don’t you think you’re just jumping around like a clown in front of me? The last time with the stone gambling, and the thing with you getting that female host to slander me, haven’t you learned your lesson?” Xu Yang mocked.
“The stone gambling was just damn luck on your side. As for the female host slandering you, I really don’t know how you found evidence. Next time, you won’t be so lucky!” Chen Guanglei snorted coldly.
“Are you saying that you still want to use these tactics against me?” Xu Yang narrowed his eyes, a hint of coldness flickering in them.
He already disliked Chen Guanglei immensely. Although they hadn’t had any previous grievances, this guy bounced around like a jumping clown in front of him.
If Chen Guanglei truly wanted to go against him, Xu Yang wouldn’t mind employing hacker techniques to dig up some dirt on him.
People like Chen Guanglei probably had quite a bit of dirty laundry.
Chen Guanglei was so arrogant, solely because he had a wealthy father.
He could even look into Chen Guanglei’s father and his company.
If he found something, Xu Yang wouldn’t mind blowing the whistle and taking down Chen Guanglei’s father’s company.
“Hmph, you’re just a country bumpkin from a small town. I can’t be bothered with you.”
Chen Guanglei had wanted to say more harsh words, but seeing the look in Xu Yang’s eyes, and for some reason feeling an inexplicable chill, he suddenly snorted, sidestepped Xu Yang, and headed for the restroom.
“It seems that the previous retaliation against Jia Sheng Guild and Triumph Investment was taken too lightly. If there’s a chance in the future, a more ruthless approach is needed to see if he dares to prance around in front of me again.”
Xu Yang watched Chen Guanglei’s retreating figure, his gaze flickering, before he returned to the venue.
