After the dinner,
Zhou Chen and Qi Tianlei got into their cars and left one after the other, watched by many people.
A group of people were left standing there, frequently sighing in amazement.
Tonight's banquet was absolutely spectacular! One act after another, one exciting show after another. No one expected that Zhou Chen would emerge as the biggest winner in the end.
Some praised Zhou Chen for his composure, strategic planning, and commanding presence, suggesting a promising future.
Some praised Zhou Chen, saying he truly deserved the title of provincial champion and was not someone else's puppet, but a genius with real talent and learning.
It's fair to say that mentioning Zhou Chen elicits a chorus of praise and acclaim.
In contrast, Li Xiaolong, as today's loser, is rarely mentioned. Even when he is mentioned, it's only because people mistakenly thought he was a member of the Hong Kong Li family that they gave him face and allowed him to join the Game Alliance Chamber of Commerce. But today, with the establishment of the Game Regulatory Council, the Game Alliance Chamber of Commerce has become a complete joke and must be withdrawn.
Some people bluntly mocked Li Xiaolong, saying that he had never made a single game and was a complete amateur trying to instruct professionals, offering them guidelines. They called him a clown who wasn't even worthy of carrying Zhou Chen's shoes.
It must be said that Zhou Chen's question to Li Xiaolong had a significant effect, causing many people to re-evaluate and reassess Li Xiaolong, and to realize who would be more beneficial for them to associate with.
Zhou Chen is clearly more worthy of attention.
Zhou Na and Hao Ying were standing at the back of the crowd, and they could clearly hear the discussions coming from the front.
For Hao Ying herself, it was nothing.
But for Zhou Na, her feelings were undoubtedly complicated.
This has happened countless times, triggering complex emotions.
Previously, when Li Xiaolong was enjoying immense success and being the center of attention, she had suspected that Zhou Chen couldn't possibly be defeated so quickly. As it turned out, she was right. Zhou Chen did indeed have a backup plan, and it was a killer move that left Li Xiaolong defeated and forced to flee in disarray.
At that moment, she put herself in Zhou Chen's shoes and wondered how she would break the deadlock. She racked her brains but had no clue. But when Qi Tianlei mentioned the game regulatory committee, she understood. So this was Zhou Chen's countermeasure.
By jointly establishing a game regulatory committee with Tencent and leveraging Tencent's influence to obtain official certification and gain even greater power than Li Xiaolong's game alliance chamber of commerce, this move is truly brilliant.
The prerequisite for doing this is to anticipate Li Xiaolong's moves.
In other words, Zhou Chen had anticipated this, and everything was within his expectations.
sharp!
After going through all of this in her mind, Zhou Na couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, admiring Zhou Chen's methods.
She is indeed far behind Zhou Chen. If she wants to surpass Zhou Chen or even compete with him, she has a long way to go.
But isn't this exactly what she wanted?
Only when Zhou Chen wins will she be more motivated and put in more effort to become stronger.
"One day, I will defeat you and surpass you."
Zhou Na clenched her fists, a resolute and confident glint in her eyes. Zhou Chen was a mountain in her heart, and she believed that once she overcame this mountain, she would become stronger than ever before. At that time, she would be able to see more scenery and colors.
However,
Zhou Na was unaware that life goals need to be set little by little. She set herself a hellish level of difficulty right from the start, destined to spend her whole life striving to climb the mountain. What she didn't know was that the mountain of her goal was not a dead mountain, unchanging. It would grow higher and higher over time, until she could no longer see the summit.
On the other end,
The room was dark, and although there were two people sitting there, it was deathly silent.
These two people were none other than Zhou Ling and Zhao Kun.
When Li Xiaolong left the banquet hall, the couple didn't linger and followed him out. After all, Li Xiaolong's status as chairman had become a joke, suddenly overturned by Zhou Chen. If they stayed in the banquet hall, they would only become a laughing stock. If Zhou Chen saw them and humiliated them again, it would be even more of a loss for them.
After returning home, the two remained silent.
Today, everyone thought they would see Zhou Chen make a fool of himself, but unexpectedly, in the end, Zhou Chen won again, dashing their hopes once more.
The series of failures led both of them to doubt themselves, wondering if they were cursed, unable to succeed whenever they opposed Zhou Chen.
Otherwise, why would there be continuous failures?
Even buying lottery tickets can lead to winnings, so why is the probability of winning against Zhou Chen once lower than the probability of winning a multi-million dollar jackpot?
Is Zhou Chen someone blessed and favored by God?
"Why don't you ask your half-brother? Compared to us, he'd probably find this kind of failure even harder to accept."
"He will definitely try every means to get revenge."
Zhao Kun spoke softly, placing his hopes once again on Li Xiaolong. After all, compared to their repeated defeats, Li Xiaolong had only failed once, and there was no guarantee that he would succeed later.
Furthermore, Li Xiaolong is more capable and has more advantages than them. He is also smarter. From any perspective, it is easier for him to take revenge on Zhou Chen than for them.
"I'll ask him."
Zhou Ling nodded and did not refuse.
...
"He guessed your move correctly, and that's why you lost to him."
"This defeat may not be a bad thing for you. You have been invincible in Hong Kong and have never been defeated. Now, this will teach you a lesson and prevent you from being arrogant. This way, you will be more cautious next time you make a move."
"You should thank him for letting you taste failure for the first time."
“I know you’re not reconciled, so prove it to me, prove it to your grandfather. Don’t let him down again. If you accumulate too much disappointment, you’ll only be able to live an ordinary life.”
"I see."
Li Xiaolong only said this one sentence before leaving the room.
The seriousness on Zhou Haide's face turned into a faint sneer after Li Xiaolong left.
He glanced down at his phone on the table and muttered to himself, "Zhou Chen, you should thank me. Without me, how could you have prepared in advance and become the final winner?"
Xiaolong is too smart and too outstanding. If he hadn't been a little more ambitious, I, as his father, wouldn't have done this. Everyone hopes their child will be successful, but I can't. Xiaolong is too exceptional. How can I, as his father, ever rise above others? For wealth and status, I've even abandoned my wife of many years. I've endured so much for so many years. What about my own flesh and blood? No one can stand in my way.
Li Xiaolong was unaware that his plan to establish a game alliance chamber of commerce had been anonymously passed on to someone by Zhou Haide several days earlier.
