Chapter 1137: The Most Awkward Investment Meeting?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yan Ci was a little surprised to see the middle-aged woman looking at Lin Yi arrogantly.

With her age, figure, and appearance, Lin Yi shouldnt have any history with her, right?

Whats going on? Do you know each other? Yan Ci asked instinctively.

When I was selling fruits previously, I met her and said that she wanted to take care of me. In the end, I scolded her. Dont you find this interesting? Take care of you?

Hearing this, Yan Ci almost laughed out loud. This matter was indeed a little funny.

Why else would I have anything to do with someone like her?

The argument in the back row attracted the attention of the people in front.

Su Chang and Zhang Xu also turned around, wanting to know what was going on.

Why is that kid here?!

Zhang Xus body trembled when he saw Lin Yi. He had suffered at his hands before, and the psychological trauma had yet to dissipate.

Do you know that person? I saw the two of them eating together yesterday, but I felt that he looked familiar. I think Ive seen him somewhere before.

His name is Lin Yi. Hes the one who partic.i.p.ated in Man vs. Wild and won first place.

So thats him. Su Chang suddenly realized. I was wondering why he looked familiar.

This person is very extraordinary. He seems to be very rich and skilled. Otherwise, he wouldnt have gotten first place.

Rich? I dont think so. Su Chang said.

He just said that hes a fruit seller. How can he be rich?

He probably lost all his money.

Zhang Xu didnt think too much about Lin Yis ident.i.ty.

After all, he had already said that he was a fruit seller. He must have lost all his money and was now in dire straits.

Just as the two of them were talking, the argument in the back row became more and more intense.

Im telling you, dont talk nonsense, or Ill sue you for slander! w.a.n.g Fang pointed at Lin Yi.

Heh

Lin Yi sneered, You better not point your finger at me. There were many people like you before, but now the gra.s.s on their grave is more than two meters tall.

w.a.n.g Fang was stunned by Lin Yis aura and turned to look at Yan Ci.

Youre the person in charge of the investment event today, right?

Yes, I am.

Yan Ci didnt understand. Why did she turn the blame onto her?

Let me introduce myself first. My name is w.a.n.g Fang, and Im the general manager of Feiyuan Food Company. Im here to bid for the sponsors.h.i.+p. I hope you can chase him out now to avoid disrupting the order here.

After learning of w.a.n.g Fangs ident.i.ty, some people in the venue started discussing softly.

Feiyuan Food Company was a new company in the food industry. However, it had built up rapid momentum and had a considerable market in the coastal area. It had a certain influence and status in the industry. They did not expect her to personally partic.i.p.ate in the investment meeting today.

Yan Ci combed his hair and smiled.

Im afraid thats not possible. Hes my friend. Hes here today to support me. No matter what his motive is, I wont chase him out.

Yan Cis tone was gentle, and at the same time, she was firm in telling w.a.n.g Fang that Lin Yi wouldnt be leaving. If she didnt want to stay here, she was free to leave.

Su Chang, who was sitting in the front row, looked at Yan Ci in disdain and thought to herself,

You guys are just an adulterous couple. You make it sound so dignified.

After so many years of hard work, w.a.n.g Fang understood what Yan Ci meant.

Since you dont want him to leave, Ill leave. There are many variety shows around. Do you think Im afraid that I wont be able to find a place to spend the money?

w.a.n.g Fang turned around angrily and walked to the front row. She said to the two middle-aged women,

I dont think such a small program will become popular. Spending money to sponsor them is equivalent to wasting money. Lets go too.

Alright, I didnt want to come at first anyway.

Under w.a.n.g Fangs call, her two friends stood up with their bags. However, w.a.n.g Fang had no intention of stopping. Instead, she said to the others present,

Everyone, although we dont know each other, were all from the same circle. We might have a chance to work together in the future. I hope everyone will give me face and not partic.i.p.ate in this investment In the food industry.

After w.a.n.g Fang finished speaking, many people present whispered to each other and discussed softly.

Although her Feiyuan Food Company was not yet a big shot in the industry, it had a certain amount of influence and status.

In comparison, the variety show was not as important.

After all, there were still many other variety shows to invest in. There was no need to provoke their friends in the industry over such a small matter.

Under w.a.n.g Fangs influence, more than ten people walked out one after another, as if they were not prepared to partic.i.p.ate in this meeting.

w.a.n.g Fang looked at Yan Ci and sneered. Since youre willing to offend me because of him, you have to bear the cost. I wish you success in your recruitment.

Yan Cis expression did not change. Take care. I wont send you off.

Originally, w.a.n.g Fang wanted to use this matter to threaten Yan Ci, but she did not expect her to not feel anything at all. This made her even angrier, and she turned around and left.

Moreover, she had already blacklisted Yan Ci and even planned to gather the industry players to boycott this show.

Thats f*cking unlucky, Lin Yi said.

Im just here to support a friend. I didnt expect to encounter such a f*cking thing.

Alright, calm down. Who asked you to be so good-looking? Yan Ci patted Lin Yis shoulder and smiled.

The investment event is about to begin. Ill go over and take care of my business first. I wont worry about you.

Okay, go ahead.

Although more than ten people had left, Lin Yi didnt take it to heart. The t.i.tle sponsors.h.i.+p fee they could give was probably not enough to buy him a car.

After the storm ended, the investment event entered a countdown. Su Chang smiled and said,

Yan Ci is really loyal. She actually offended so many investors for the sake of her old flame. She can forget about successfully getting any investments today.

She probably thought that with so many people at the scene, it wouldnt matter even if a dozen of them left.

Thats why Ive always felt that shes not smart at all and doesnt understand the market, Su Chang said.

Before I started the show, I did a systematic investigation on these potential sponsors. Among the people present, that woman called w.a.n.g Fang is indeed the only strong candidate. And she came personally today, presumably to fight for the exclusive sponsors.h.i.+p rights. Now, the biggest sponsor has been angered and left. Moreover, the few people she took away are not too poor. I reckon the remaining people are all rotten fish and shrimp.

Based on what you said, the aforementioned upper limit of 50 million is now considered high. Zhang Xu gloated.

Su Chang looked at the remaining people present and said,

Look at the rest of these ugly people. I cant name any of them. Theyre probably all small businesses, so Im guessing that the final investment amount wont exceed 30 million. It can be considered the most awkward investment meeting in history..
