Reborn with Consumption System

As soon as this was spoken, Zhang Hong’s face turned a shade of white.

Han Lie raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Then he turned directly to Zhang Hong, suppressing his smile: "Does Dai Zhikang agree? Does Zhao Danyang agree? Does Zhao Kai agree? I even recognize Jiang Hui, Zhao Jun, and those guys as seniors, who have made outstanding contributions to the development of private equity in our country.

Sorry, who are you? Which registered private equity fund have you managed?"

Zhang Hong was so overwhelmed by this that he didn’t dare make a sound.

Mainly, this is Dream City.

Being berated a couple of times, losing face, what’s the big deal?

A wise man knows not to take a loss right in front of him, right?

His face turned pale for about three to five seconds, and then he suddenly smiled and spoke: "Han, sir, I am just someone who sells courses, as you know, everyone in training loves to put a title on themselves, it’s something we all tacitly understand.

If calling myself the father of private equity upsets you, it’s simple, I’ll just drop it later, won’t I!"

Holy crap!

Even Han Lie was a bit taken aback.

With such skill in enduring humiliation and staying self-contained, it’s no wonder he could fool so many people, truly impressive!

"Well done, you."

Han Lie sneered as he nodded and then waved his hand.

"I won’t keep you, buy yourself a ticket and go on with your business, but remember one thing—next time you come to Dream City, report to me in advance."

These words were quite damaging, as if slapping a middle-aged man repeatedly across the face.

But they were also incredibly domineering.

No mention of consequences, if you don’t believe, go ahead and try.

Zhang Hong believed.

Throughout the years, traveling all over, engaging in mutual flattery and chaos, he failed more often than succeeded, and was often dealt with by local bigshots.

At the moment, he clasped his fists, not uttering a word in defense, and turned to leave.

After he left, some members of the Dream City Financial Club were still bewildered.

Han Lie smiled easily and gestured to Wang Qiwei: "Did you see that? This is a seasoned old swindler, seeing things are not going well, he absolutely doesn’t linger, his time might be worth more than yours."

Wang Qiwei also stopped pretending, bursting into laughter.

"Han, sir, my apologies, my apologies, I used you as a gun once, how about this, is the worst unit in Dream Garden on the second floor or the third floor? Give me one unit, three parking spaces, plus ten years’ worth of property fees, I’ll pay it all at once!"

Look at this sly fox!

While apologizing, he conveniently strengthened their relationship slightly.

No matter how houses in Dream Garden don’t worry about selling, the second floor ultimately can’t fetch too high a price, he doesn’t want the best layout, everyone would have thought he was taking a burden off Han Lie’s shoulders.

But in reality? Does Han Lie really need him to take the burden?

Truly sneaky!

After a few chats, those bosses realized too, angrily slapping their thighs.

"Damn! That idiot was actually a fraud? Damn it, entertaining him cost me over a hundred thousand..."

Han Lie fairly assessed: "Not entirely a fraud, at least the internet financial industry has been promising in recent years... Enough, let’s take a seat, we’ll discuss this later, let’s not keep President Li waiting."

Li Chaohui, who had been standing quietly all this time, finally chimed in: "Oh no, no, that was brilliant, it really broadened my horizons!"

"I’m glad you don’t mind."

Han Lie smiled faintly and sat at the main guest seat, then looked up with surprise: "President Li, why aren’t you sitting yet?"

Li Chaohui endured until his face twitched but ultimately refrained.

"Han, sir, you’re the main guest, it’s only right you sit first... Waitress, serve the dishes!"

The words "serve the dishes" were shouted loudly and with great force, indicating his inner turmoil wasn’t as calm.

Indeed, today’s Han Lie was too flamboyant, too aggressive, and didn’t take him seriously.

From Han Lie’s perspective, this was intentional, part of a psychological test, and an aggressive display to proactively avoid trouble.

However, from Li Chaohui’s perspective, he had no choice but to keep lowering his stance.

Thus Han Lie easily judged that this guy was indeed at the end of his rope.

Start eating, start chatting.

With so many people at the table, it’s certainly not the time to discuss business.

But it’s not aimless chit-chat either, Han Lie doesn’t have that much time to waste on him.

So, they talked about Li Chaohui’s management and strategy after taking over Haixin.

Bringing up this topic, Li Chaohui complained bitterly, while also self-promoting.

"Back in the day, I was entrusted in a crisis, taking over Haixin after my father’s sudden incident, and in just a few years, growing Haixin from a production value of 3 billion to 10 billion, then investing in Minsheng Bank, my personal wealth exceeded 10 billion, becoming the first billionaire among 80s-born individuals...

How much employment did we create for Mining Province?

How much tax did we pay?

But the country is simultaneously opening the floodgates and vigorously promoting state advance and private retreat!

The steel capacity is expanding crazily, now the market is flooded with inferior steel from small steel mills, crashing the prices of low-end products not just once.

And the large state-owned enterprises above receive massive bank loans, producing specialty steel as if it were cabbage, with technical advantages, patent advantages, and market advantages all in one, how can we private businesses compete?"

Before coming, Han Lie had studied Haixin, so he curiously asked: "Back then your father’s ten-year expansion plan nearly perfectly counteracted this situation, what was your thinking in discarding it?"

Li Chaohui instantly stammered.

"Uh, my father’s plan was good, but it stretched the funding chain too tight, depended too deeply on local government support, also at the time, channeling funds into investment was yielding clearly better returns.
