Chapter 303: In This World, There Can Only Be One Young Master!Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Just a coincidental idea could make the entire world in a tizzy. And the protagonist of the whole matter, Hong Dali, only expressed his satisfaction with the food and nothing more. That made Mu Yuxi and Catherine stare so widely in antic.i.p.ation that their eyeb.a.l.l.s almost popped out.
Nevertheless, Hong Dali had really just wanted to improve the atmosphere while having meals in the hotel, and the price was that this Fu Hai Hotel spent another 200,000 yuan to do a renovation from head to toe again…
After finis.h.i.+ng his meal, Hong Dali wiped his mouth in satisfaction and rewarded another 50,000 yuan. Just as he was preparing to go outside and take a look elsewhere, suddenly, a group of people came in from outside. The person in the lead was a young man in casual attire. The others were all wearing black suits and ties, and as they walked, they chatted. As Hong Dali randomly listened to a few sentences, it seemed like the Jabanese language…
Such a high profile entrance. He wondered which young master had come here for a trip. Towards these international friends, Hong Dali didn"t really have any bad feelings towards them. Just as he was preparing to slightly make way for them to pa.s.s through, suddenly, a person within the group who was dressed in black suit, like a bodyguard, directly started to drag Hong Dali"s lackeys out of the way, and while he did so, he said, “Young Master has arrived, please make way. Thank you!”
What the heck, I"m right here, are there still other Young Masters?
Had things happened in a typical manner, then both parties would already have stared at each other and would be preparing to start fighting. However, obviously, Hong Dali was still very low-profile. He didn"t say anything much and only walked to a side to make way. After that group of people had streamed past and entered the elevator, he curiously asked the lobby manager, “What"s this group of fellows doing over here?”
“Them?” The lobby manager wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, “They are the staff of Toyoda Car Company. That person in the lead whom they call ‘Young Master" seems to be Ko Gohon, the only son of Toyoda"s CEO Tarō Gohon, so his underlings also address him as Young Master. Today I heard that they came for business talks. As for what kind of business they were discussing, it"s not convenient for me to find out. However, it should be more or less related to cars.”
“Oh, is that so.” Anyway, it didn"t concern him. Thus, Hong Dali indifferently shrugged and said, “Then, it doesn"t really have anything to do with me. Let"s go back to Chenhui Building first.”
“Dali,” Just then, Tang Muxin, who was beside him, asked in a low voice, “You"re not planning to teach them a lesson?”
“What"s there to teach them?” Hong Dali strangely asked. “They"re having business negotiations, and they didn"t offend me anyway. I can"t be like a crazy dog who bites anyone I see, right? Let"s go, didn"t you say Chuyin"s Holographic Projection Technology is almost done? Let"s go back to take a look!”
“That"s true.” Tang Muxin grinned. “Then, let"s go back first.”
Mu Yuxi, who was following from the back, thought: To be a successful prodigal, being low-profile is the right way to go.
Meanwhile, Catherine thought, Heavenly State and Jaban State had all along not been very friendly with each other. Young Master Dali didn"t lose his temper. Looks like this person is still rather easygoing…
Eventually, while she was still thinking, the elevator door suddenly opened and a person furiously rushed out. While he walked, he cursed. “This d.a.m.n group of Jabanese, they"re bullying others too much! What the heck! What the heck! I"ll go and find some tools to fight it out with them!”
Upon hearing that, Hong Dali became interested. He hurriedly stopped that person and asked, “Brother, what has made you so agitated?”
Once that person saw Hong Dali, after scanning him from head to toe, he said in shock, “You"re… the legendary Young Master Dali?”
“It"s me, but I"m not from the legends.” Hong Dali grinned. “What"s the matter that made you so angry?”
“Young Master Dali, it"s just too great that I"ve found you!” That person acted as if he had just gotten ahold of a life buoy while he was on the verge of drowning, as he rushed forward and pulled Hong Dali"s hand. “Young Master Dali, help! Apart from you, I really can"t think of anyone else that can help me!”
Aye? What"s so serious?
Hong Dali looked at the lobby manager. “Are there any private rooms? Hang a signboard that says ‘Black Wood Cliff." Let"s go up first.”
“Yes! There has to be a room!” The lobby manager instantly led them up all the way into a large room and said, “Young Master Dali, the ambiance is good in here, and it"s big enough. You and this Mister can talk in here. The soundproof effect is definitely good!”
“Alright, you may go then.” After the lobby manager had left, Hong Dali looked at that person and asked, “How should I address you, big brother?” That person looked on slightly above 30 years old this year, thus calling him “big brother” was considered appropriate.
“I"m Chu Xianghe. Young Master Dali, you can just call me Xianghe.” That person replied. This name was rather artistic…
“Oh, Big Brother Xianghe. What exactly happened that caused you to be so angry?” Hong Dali curiously asked, “You said just now that only I can help you?”
“Sigh, don"t talk about it.” Chu Xianghe sat on the sofa and despondently said, “I"m a manager at our local Tianying Car Company. Today, I came with my superior to talk with Toyoda Car Company"s Young… with their company"s Ko Gohon about the matter of price increases. I was just sitting by the side, and initially, there was nothing much, but suddenly, that Ko Gohon said that he wanted Miss Jiang Ruoyu to accompany him for a night, or else there"d be no room for any negotiations! How could I stand this? I really couldn"t listen further and stormed out.”
Hong Dali and the rest stared at each other. This Ko Gohon had laid his eyes on Jiang Ruoyu?
“Big Brother Xianghe, what exactly made this Ko Gohon raise such a condition? Price increase?” Tang Muxin, who was carrying Little Meow at the side, asked, “Your company is going to increase the price of its cars?”
“It"s not that our company is going to increase the price of our cars.” Chu Xianghe despondently said, “We wanted Toyoda Car Company to increase the price of their cars! Their company has recently modified its technology, and the total price of their cars has decreased by close to 10%. This has caused our local car market to be in a tizzy. It"s soon going to result in a situation where there is a sole dominating company, but because of the capital cost of our cars, the price of cars locally cannot go down. Now, we"re already having difficulty selling them. Thus, we came to discuss with him about this matter. But that fellow actually said that if Jiang Ruoyu didn"t agree to his request, there would be no room for any negotiations on this matter! Miss Jiang Ruoyu is now in that private room, she can neither leave nor stay. I"m Miss Jiang Ruoyu"s super loyal fan!”
What the heck, Jiang Ruoyu was also here?
Had it been other matters, Hong Dali wouldn"t have bothered about it. But there was actually someone who set his eyes on the artiste in his company within his territory. Had it been consensual, it was fine. Anyway, things were like that in the industry. However, the problem was that Jiang Ruoyu was unwilling to do so. This definitely couldn"t be tolerated!
He had to deal with this matter, but for now, Hong Dali didn"t plan to deal with it in too much depth. There was no need to attract hate and make enemies in the business sector. It"s fine regardless of how you mess around with others, but you can"t touch those people under me!
“En, I do need to take a look at this matter. I can"t let things go like that if he dares to touch people around me.” Hong Dali touched his chin. “Then, why did you say just now that only I can help?”
“Young Master, you have many ideas and are lucky.” Chu Xianghe begged. “Can you help us think of a way? It concerns the nation"s economy…”
“Don"t flatter me.” Hong Dali mumbled, “I don"t have such a high ability yet.” As he spoke, he stood up and said, “Go, let"s go and see what that fellow"s up to. Which room is it?”
“Second floor, Golden Rose room.” Chu Xianghe hurriedly led the way. “Young Master, I"ll bring you there right away!”
Mu Yuxi and Catherine glanced at each other. To be a qualified squanderer, he must be prepared to face various challenges at all times and protect the basic interests of those under him. This had to be remembered!
The group went out of the room and went downstairs. Very soon, they reached the entrance of the room. Hong Dali sniffled and looked at those behind him. “Later on, it won"t be a problem if you have to fight, right?”
“No problem!” The group of lackeys boasted. “Miss Chuyin has put the exoskeleton armor on all of us. Each of us can definitely deal with one or two people without any problem!”
“En, that"s good.” Hong Dali lifted his leg and kicked the door open. Afterward, he grinned and walked inside. Once he entered the room, he saw Jiang Ruoyu looking aggrieved as she sat at a corner. On the sofa opposite her, to the east side sat a 45-year-old middle-aged man. He was smiling sheepishly, and opposite his was exactly that Young Master, Ko Gohon!
“You can chat first.” Hong Dali looked at Jiang Ruoyu. “Sister Ruoyu, there"s a dinner later, are you going? I"ll treat you!”
Those people in the room had never expected that a person would actually kick the door open. The most important thing was that after this person entered, he was still using a casual tone: “There"s a dinner later, are you going?”
Thus, once Hong Dali appeared, everyone in the room was instantly stunned. Jiang Ruoyu was the first to react. She hurriedly ran over and stood beside Hong Dali and joyfully said, “Young Master, you"ve actually come!”
Jiang Ruoyu had been promoted to stardom by Hong Dali overnight. Thus, she trusted him almost blindly. She"d perhaps suspect if it were others, but with Hong Dali, she would definitely not doubt him the least.
“Young Master?” The Young Master of Toyoda Company, Ko Gohon, who was opposite them, stopped his group of underlings who were just about to lay their hands on them. He stared at Hong Dali coldly and said in a deep voice, “You"re Hong Dali?” Hong Dali didn"t expect that this Ko Gohon could actually speak Chinese. Though his accent was unnatural, whatever he said could still be understood.
“Ah, yes.” Hong Dali touched his nose. “Jiang Ruoyu is my person, haven"t you heard of it?”
“Of course, I know.” Ko Gohon laughed. “If she was not yours, I wouldn"t be interested. Initially, I was planning to find Li Nianwei, but what a pity I couldn"t contact her. Why, you came here today to wage a challenge with me? Our Toyoda Conglomerate is ranked 12th in the world. Your Hong Family is only ranked 100th and below. You want to challenge me?” Ko Gohon stretched out his thumb and turned it downwards. “You"re not qualified.”
“Whether I"m qualified or not doesn"t seem to be decided by you,” Hong Dali grinned and pulled Jiang Ruoyu"s hand. “Sister Ruoyu, what do you want to eat later?”
His att.i.tude of totally ignoring Ko Gohon made Ko Gohon very angry. Thus, he expressed that the consequences were very severe. “You actually dare to ignore me. Hong Dali, you will regret this!”
“What do I have to regret about.” Hong Dali asked questioningly. “I"m not buying your cars.”
“Insolent! But you"ve come just at the right time today, I have something to tell you!” Ko Gohon said with a cold face. “In this world, there can only be one Young Master. That"s me, Ko Gohon!”
“Oh, then I also have something to tell you.” Hong Dali indifferently opened his hands. “Whoso puts up a front will be struck by lightning!”
