106: Chapter 106 Women's Tricks
That day.
Chen Hao was watching a street shoot of a beautiful woman. A female blogger with a face clearly modified by plastic surgery, dressed in exquisite ancient costume, was putting on a "wet-look" temptation by a pond in the water town area of the Movie Studio.
Someone approached from behind Chen Hao, but because he was so engrossed, he didn't realize they were there at all.
"You plan to use these Internet Celebrities to help me win the gambling agreement?"
When Chen Hao turned around, he found Zhao Yifei standing behind him, holding an umbrella and wearing a mask.
"No, no, no. These Internet Celebrities are just providing high-quality content. The real monetization doesn't rely on them."
"Then what does it rely on?"
Zhao Yifei didn't quite understand Chen Hao's way of thinking. Even though he had explained it to her, she still didn't get it.
"It relies on top-ups, the market, and the dividends of the new media era."
People were coming and going, and with so many eyes around, Zhao Yifei signaled for Chen Hao to follow her.
The two of them got into a nanny van, and after closing the door, Zhao Yifei finally took off her mask.
"Although I don't really understand, I'm just not optimistic. If you could earn a billion just by relying on Internet Celebrities, everyone would be one."
Chen Hao was somewhat speechless.
"I already said, it's not about these Internet Celebrities. I'm building a platform. The Internet Celebrities are just the workhorses for the platform to make money. They only earn small change, while I earn the big bucks."
Zhao Yifei blinked and gave a bitter smile.
"In other words, you eat the meat and let the Internet Celebrities have some soup."
"You could put it that way. After all, my goal is billions. At most, an Internet Celebrity can earn hundreds of thousands or a few million. The essence is different, and the result-orientation is absolutely not the same."
Zhao Yifei smiled and said.
"You really are an evil capitalist."
Chen Hao said with a dark expression.
"Who are you calling names? Have you forgotten who I'm helping to make money?"
"Alright, alright, I was joking. Why are you getting angry?"
She proactively caressed Chen Hao's face and said with breath as sweet as orchids.
"I came to find you today because I wanted to tell you something."
"Go ahead."
"Your 'darling' doesn't even have a car. It just so happens that I want to change cars, so I plan to sell the lexus business van to her."
Chen Hao thought for a moment.
"Then sell it. What's the point of telling me?"
Zhao Yifei's fingers slid across Chen Hao's body.
"Capitalist, this is such a good opportunity to win the hearts of two women at once. Do you really not understand what I mean?"
He understood.
She wanted to change cars and used giving it to Zhu Shasha as an excuse to approach Chen Hao. She didn't want to lose too much on the resale and wanted him to buy it at the original price. This was killing two birds with one stone, winning the hearts of two women.
"I only realized today that you're actually quite clever. Tell me, how much do you want?"
Zhao Yifei gave a knowing smile.
"I bought this car for 1.6 million originally. It's not too much to sell it to you for 2.6 million, right?"
Chen Hao retorted.
"Selling me a second-hand car with a 1 million markup? Are you robbing me?"
She smiled and said in a coquettish tone.
"The car I want to change to costs 2.6 million."
After saying that, she proactively hooked her arms around Chen Hao's neck and said coquettishly.
"After all, this car was driven by a Movie Queen. If it were sold to a fan, it might even fetch more than 2.6 million."
"Nonsense. Which fan would be that brain-dead?"
She acted coquettishly, her breath sweet.
"President Chen, you're the best. You won't haggle with me over such a small amount of money, right?"
Forget it, she was just too good-looking. Chen Hao was a sucker for beauty; beauty is justice, and he couldn't escape that law.
"I'll transfer the money to you."
He said while transferring the money to her.
"Besides this car, I've invested 3.2 million in your project so far. That's the entire startup leverage."
She was very surprised.
"So much money spent, and it's only been a few days?"
She was worried that instead of making money, she would lose millions, which would be more trouble than it was worth.
Chen Hao said nonchalantly.
"The beginning is always the hardest. The flywheel is already spinning. Next, we just wait for it to ferment. Let the bullets fly for a while."
She smiled and said.
"There are still two years left. I'm not in a hurry."
A bank notification arrived. She checked her phone and suddenly kissed Chen Hao on the cheek, leaving a deep lipstick mark.
"Thank you, President Chen. This car is yours now."
As she spoke, she opened the car door to get out. Seeing her trying to leave after taking advantage of him, Chen Hao took the opportunity to slap her on the butt. The feel was quite good.
"You're annoying!"
She gave a coquettish scold and walked away with her mask on.
Chen Hao sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and went to the dance studio to find Zhu Shasha.
Because Zhang Menglu was also practicing dance there, Chen Hao didn't dare go in and called Zhu Shasha to come out.
Soon, when Zhu Shasha came out, the entrance was already crowded with Internet Celebrities, all whispering around the business van.
"Is this the Movie Queen's car?"
"That's right. I've asked around; it's definitely the Movie Queen's car."
"I must take a photo with the Movie Queen today. It'll be enough to brag about for the rest of my life."
Zhu Shasha looked around but couldn't see where Chen Hao was.
"Ding-dong"
She checked her phone; it was from Chen Hao.
"Get in. It's the lexus business van right in front of you."
Zhu Shasha pushed through the crowd in confusion, opened the car door, and sat inside.
Chen Hao started driving slowly. Only then did Zhu Shasha recognize that the driver in front was actually Chen Hao.
"Why are you driving Zhao Yifei's car?"
"What do you mean Zhao Yifei's car? This is your car."
"Nonsense. How could I afford such an expensive car?"
Having said that, she reacted instantly, covering her mouth in disbelief, her emotions somewhat stirred.
"No way, no way... You bought it to give to me?"
Chen Hao drove the car to a less crowded area of the Movie Studio.
"Do you like it?"
Zhu Shasha excitedly stepped over from the back to the front, hugging Chen Hao and about to kiss him, but when she cupped his face, her smile froze.
"You really... you don't even pay attention when 'cheating'. Luckily I'm the one who saw it. If Zhang Menglu had seen it, you'd have no way to explain yourself."
"I didn't cheat. Which eye of yours saw me cheating?"
Chen Hao was still trying to quibble, but Zhu Shasha took a makeup remover wipe from her bag, wiped Chen Hao's face once, and showed it to him.
"What's this?"
"Damn!"
Chen Hao wiped his face.
"Zhao Yifei set me up. I really didn't know about this."
"A man's words..."
After she carefully wiped him clean, she maintained her position, arms wrapped around Chen Hao's neck.
"You're so good to me. What should I do? I'm liking you more and more."
Chen Hao said glibly.
"As my woman, being happy is what matters most."
She gave Chen Hao a light peck on the lips and said affectionately.
"I'm very happy and feel very blessed. It's just that it's not convenient for me to do it with you today. I have a night scene to film tonight. Last time we did it, I couldn't get out of bed for a whole day."
"I didn't plan on doing you in broad daylight anyway. I just heard that you didn't even have a car to rest in at the film set, so I discussed it with Zhao Yifei. I bought this car for you to drive for now, and I'll get you a brand new one later."
The rhetoric Zhao Yifei had coached him on really worked. She hugged Chen Hao again, moved, and said affectionately.
"Thank you. Truly, thank you so much."
