Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhou Chao left Lujiazui and drove towards the largest Mercedes-Benz 4S dealership in Modu.

As Zhou Chao drove his Lamborghini Veneno into the open space of the Mercedes-Benz 4S dealership, a large group of car salespeople rushed out and stood at the entrance as if they were queuing to welcome him.

Zhou Chao was taken aback when a few female salespeople exclaimed, “Wow,” upon seeing him.

Without hesitation, Zhou Chao walked over to the group of people who were staring at him at the entrance.

“Hello, sir, I am Liang Rui, the manager of the 4S dealership. May 1 ask for your name?” A middle-aged man approached Zhou Chao.

“I’m surnamed Zhou.”

“Mr. Zhou, please come inside.” Manager Liang led Zhou Chao to the lounge area of the 4S dealership.

“Do you have any Mercedes-Benz GLC300 coupes in stock?” Zhou Chao asked without delay.

Although Manager Liang was a bit disappointed upon hearing Zhou Chao’s inquiry, he didn’t think much of it. He replied, “Yes, we have them in black, white, and blue. All three colors are in stock.”

“What’s the price for the top configuration, fully loaded?”

“It’s around 600,000 yuan.” Manager Liang couldn’t help but wonder why someone driving a supercar worth nearly a hundred million yuan would be buying a Mercedes-Benz worth just a few hundred thousand yuan.

“Alright, give me ten of them. I won’t provide the names for now.”

Manager Liang seemed to quickly understand the situation. Could it be that a second-generation member of a wealthy family came to make a purchase?

“Of course, Mr. Zhou. I’ll process the paperwork for you right away.” The professional efficiency was remarkable, and in less than 30 minutes, the paperwork was completed. Zhou Chao looked at the ten cars lined up in the open space and nodded in satisfaction.

Zhou Chao also remembered the luxury goods he had bought at Lujiazui earlier, so he called the mall and had them delivered to the 4S dealership. He planned to put one set in each car, saving himself a lot of trouble.

In less than an hour, a delivery truck from the mall arrived at the 4S dealership with a car full of luxury goods bags. The female salespeople’s eyes lit up at the sight.

“Mr. Zhou, let us help you with this.” Manager Liang was very tactful and immediately called a few male salespeople to quickly categorize and place the luxury items in the cars.

“I’ll trouble you guys then!” In less than ten minutes, everything was neatly organized in the car.

“This is what we should do.”

“Alright, Manager Liang, let’s exchange contact information.” Manager Liang was overjoyed and quickly took out his phone to add Zhou Chao as a WeChat friend.

“Sure, let’s do that. Someone will come to drive these cars out tomorrow. I’ll take my leave for now.” With that, Zhou Chao opened the car door, threw a bunch of car keys onto the front passenger seat, and drove away from the 4S dealership.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the annual meeting. Zhou Chao didn’t get up early and lay in bed until 11 o’clock. The annual meeting was scheduled to start at 1 o’clock in the afternoon, so he wasn’t in a hurry.

“System, check-in.”

“Host checks in and receives professional singing.”

“Hahaha, the heavens are on my side! From now on, my singing won’t sound like a wailing ghost or a howling wolf!”

“System, integrate!”

Soon, Zhou Chao felt a tremendous itch in his throat. After about a minute, unable to endure it any longer, he coughed, and a large chunk of grayish phlegm came out, leaving his throat feeling refreshingly cool.

He hummed a few lines lightly and sensed a remarkable change in his throat. After tidying up the mess on the floor, Zhou Chao cheerfully continued to hum as he descended the stairs.

Zhou Chao cooked himself two pieces of steak for lunch. Since he was dining alone, he didn’t need anything extravagant, and besides, he wasn’t picky about food.

“Handsome!” He couldn’t help but admire his own handsome appearance in the mirror.

After changing into a different outfit, Zhou Chao grabbed his keys and headed out, holding the Mercedes-Benz keys he had purchased earlier.

Meanwhile, the Hilton Hotel was bustling with activity. Qian Jin and Ling Chen were sitting in the lobby on the first floor, chatting away. They had become quite friendly, and their conversation flowed smoothly.

“Ling Chen, what kind of person do you think the boss is?”

“My first impression of the boss is that he’s handsome, and my second impression is that he’s lazy!” Ling Chen’s words left Qian Jin momentarily stunned.

“Lazy? How is that possible?”

“From the very beginning when the company was founded, he gave me 220 million yuan without asking how I’d use it. He just said, ‘I trust you.’ Now the company’s assets are worth billions, and he has never once checked the accounts.”

Qian Jin was a smart person himself; otherwise, he wouldn’t have become the highest-ranking president of the Hilton Hotel in the China region. Ling Chen’s words made it clear what kind of person their boss was. It seemed that their boss was truly exceptional.

“The boss is here!” Ling Chen saw a Lamborghini Veneno driving into the hotel’s parking lot and stood up. He walked out of the lobby, and Qian Jin quickly followed.

“Boss, you’re here!”

“Yeah, Ling Chen. And this must be Qian Jin, right?” Zhou Chao saw Qian Jin following behind Ling Chen and was impressed with his first impression.

“Hello, boss. I’m Qian Jin.”

“I’ve done some research on you, Qian Jin. You’re a top talent in management. Ling Chen, you better watch out. Qian Jin might just surpass you one day!” Zhou Chao said with a smile, a meaning that both Ling Chen and Qian Jin would understand.

“Shall we go inside?” Zhou Chao noticed that everyone was staring at them outside, so he took the lead and walked in.

“Boss, would you like to sit in my office for a while? The annual meeting won’t start for a bit.”

“Sure, let’s go to your office.” Mainly, he had some matters to discuss with Qian Jin.

Qian Jin quickly took half a step ahead of Zhou Chao and led him and Ling Chen to his office.

“Boss, I’ve prepared information about all the Hilton hotels in Greater China, as well as their revenue.”

Zhou Chao took the documents Qian Jin handed to him, glanced over them briefly, and gained a general understanding of the entire Greater China region. He then handed the documents back to Qian Jin.

“I don’t like making empty promises. Just do your job well! If you need anything, you can talk to Ling Chen, or if there’s anything unsolvable, you can call me.”

“Boss, you can trust me. I’ll manage the hotel well!”

“Alright, it’s about time. Let’s go to the venue… Oh, Ling Chen, take this. You’ll need it for the final lucky draw later!” Ling Chen received the bag that Zhou Chao handed over, opened it, and was surprised to find it filled with Mercedes-Benz car keys.

“Boss, they’re going to be overjoyed!” Qian Jin leaned in and saw the keys in the bag, equally astonished.

“Let’s go!” Qian Jin then led Zhou Chao and Ling Chen toward the evening event.

Upon arriving at the annual meeting venue, Zhou Chao saw that everything was well-organized and bustling with activity.

It appeared that Qian Jin’s team had extensive experience in event planning, and they had even arranged for excellent hosts for the event. manhua

The event began promptly!

The program for the evening started with Zhou Chao announcing the official commencement of the annual meeting. Then, Ling Chen took the stage to announce the company’s achievements for the year and delivered a speech.

Throughout the annual meeting, in addition to a shared dinner for hundreds of people, the most anticipated parts were the performances by various employees, departments, and subsidiaries, as well as the award presentations and online lucky draw.

Each department had its performance, including entertainment subsidiaries with song and dance, numerous internet celebrities with dance routines that had the audience howling, comedy skits by the charity department, and a grand choir performance by the Ansteel subsidiary. Each division’s performance was exceptional.

Apart from that, what excited everyone the most was Ling Chen singing a patriotic song and a performance by Qian Jin, Wang Feng, and others dancing a sea grass dance. After all, the employees loved to see their bosses making a spectacle of themselves.

During the performances, there were intermittent award presentations and online lucky draws. Everyone scanned QR codes, and the screen randomly selected winners.

The prizes were diverse, including cash, vacations, trips, cosmetics, electronics, and more.

As soon as the lottery segment arrived, everyone’s hearts were particularly tense. Even if they won a cash reward, it was often in the thousands, not to mention the various other prizes available.

“Dear colleagues, would you like to hear the boss sing?”

“We want to hear it!” The entire venue echoed with the shouts of hundreds of people!

“So, how should we request it?” The host was exceptionally skilled at building excitement, and the atmosphere in the entire venue was soaring.

“Sing, boss!”

“Sing, boss!”

Zhou Chao, feeling somewhat helpless, got up and made his way to the stage..
