Chapter 744: Kneel Down! (2)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Upon hearing this, Chen Li couldn’t help but think that Zhou Chao was not to be trifled with. Initially, he just wanted to use Zhou Chao’s identity to pressure those shareholders a bit, perhaps even clear them out of management if the opportunity arose. But who would have thought that Zhou Chao would be so ruthless and directly take advantage of the situation?
Although he wanted to curse inwardly, there was no change on his face.
“Young Master Zhou, you’re just joking. How could my humble business catch your eye? Young Master Zhou, please don’t tease me,” Chen Li said with a forced smile.
His change in attitude was swift, faster than even the shifting of the Sichuan non-legacy culture.
Even the address changed from ‘Mr. Zhou’ to ‘Young Master Zhou,’ aiming to bridge the gap between them and dissuade Zhou Chao from his previous thoughts.
“Director Li, if your Yili Dairy Industry is considered humble, then 99.99% of companies in China should be ashamed. As the leading force in the domestic dairy industry, you cannot afford to be so modest!”
Si Cong, who had come out on his own and worked hard, wasn’t just here for a free ride. Bantering like this was second nature to him.
Hearing Si Cong’s words, Zhou Chao chimed in, “Director Li, there’s no need to be so modest. Yili’s development has already reached its peak domestically. Even if it continues to grow, there won’t be much progress. Don’t you want Yili to step out of the country and see the world?”
Upon hearing this, both Chen Li and Si Cong were stunned. Si Cong didn’t doubt for a moment that Zhou Chao was joking.
Originally, Si Cong thought it was just a matter of investing some money and shares, and reaching a few cooperative agreements. Who would have thought that Zhou Chao had plans to expand and strengthen?
Chen Li fell into silence. For a moment, he didn’t know how to respond to Zhou Chao’s words. Not being moved by them would be false, but letting Zhou Chao and Si Cong get involved meant that the final outcome of his company was uncertain.
The room fell silent. Seeing this, Si Cong tried to give Zhou Chao a few meaningful looks, hoping he would strike while the iron was hot, but Zhou Chao ignored him.
Seeing that Zhou Chao didn’t respond, Si Cong could only sit quietly on the sofa, drinking his tea.
After a while, it seemed that Chen Li had figured something out. He raised his head and said, “Young Master Zhou, let’s speak candidly...”
But before Chen Li could finish his sentence, a hurried knocking interrupted him.
All eyes turned to the door, where Lin Wu pushed it open and walked in. “Boss, someone’s here to see you!”
Chen Li knew it was the small shareholders of his company, along with their incompetent sons.
“Young Master Zhou, they must be here. Let them in,” Chen Li said to Zhou Chao.
