"How big?"
Ye Chen paused for a moment, then replied calmly:
"To the point that Patek Philippe would have to change its name."
After a moment of stunned silence, Yan Xukong lost his composure.
"What?!!!"
"To the point that it could make Patek Philippe change its name?"
Inside the private room, Yan Xukong suddenly stood up, looking incredulous.
After the initial shock, Yan Xukong came up with a terrifying idea.
He is also a smart man.
It would be difficult for even the president of Patek Philippe to change its name, considering that there is a board of directors and a group of shareholders above the president.
The only entity that could possibly achieve this is Patek Philippe's true behind-the-scenes owner, the super-large shareholder.
Yan Xukong's face showed even greater shock.
After sitting down, Yan Xukong took a deep breath and asked Ye Chen:
"Mr. Ye...you wouldn't happen to be the owner behind Patek Philippe, would you?"
"Yes."
Ye Chen nodded.
Holy crap!!!
Yan Xukong was shocked. That was Patek Philippe, the world's most famous and top-tier watch brand.
Unexpectedly, the person behind it was this young man in his early twenties sitting right in front of me.
Mr. Ye is terrifying.
After learning Ye Chen's identity, Yan Xukong's initial doubts vanished instantly. He realized that deliberately lowering his stance to befriend President Ye was absolutely worthwhile!
"Mr. Ye, let me toast you."
As he spoke, Yan Xukong took the initiative to toast Ye Chen.
After a few rounds of drinks, the two became less of a stranger to each other.
In the end, Yan Xukong couldn't resist his curiosity and asked Ye Chen a question.
"President Ye, if I may ask, why did Elder Gao Cangshan transfer his status as a senior member of the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce to you?"
Strictly ordered, the opening is empty.
"Of course, if it's inconvenient for you, Mr. Ye, you don't have to answer."
“I understand.”
Actually, Yan Xukong wanted to ask Ye Chen as soon as they met, but it would be impolite to ask so directly right after meeting, so Yan Xukong kept it to himself until now.
It's important to understand that being a senior member of the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce carries a very high status. Once you become a senior member, you can mobilize a lot of the Chamber's resources and connections.
These ordinary members have been envious for a long time.
Therefore, Ye Chen, a newcomer who had only joined the Chamber of Commerce not long ago, became an elder in just half a month, which shocked and intrigued them.
"Actually, there's nothing special about it. It's just that I made a bet with Gao Cangshan before. If I could take over Yinglong Security Group..."
Ye Chen gave a brief explanation.
"What? Yinglong Security Group is now also owned by President Ye?"
Upon learning the answer, Yan Xukong was utterly horrified.
Yinglong Security Group is one of the largest security groups in the country, with strong financial resources and a complex background.
I never imagined that such a powerful company was also owned by President Ye.
"President Ye is amazing."
Yan Xukong sighed with emotion.
Because of his family background and his own hard work, he can be considered a "prodigy," reaching the pinnacle in everything he does.
When he was in his early twenties, he was also full of vigor and had achieved great things at a young age.
But now, compared to President Ye, he was "a complete failure" in his youth; the difference between the two is too great.
The more Yan Xukong thought about it, the more emo he felt.
Logically speaking, he should be the kind of person who is envied, with his terrifying family background. But now, it's his turn to envy President Ye.
There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding—that's absolutely true.
"By the way, Mr. Ye, I just remembered something."
Yan Xukong suddenly thought of something.
“I know a long-established tycoon in Yuecheng who is going abroad to do business soon and urgently needs a large number of bodyguards.”
"I wonder if Mr. Ye would be interested?"
"And it's a long-term commitment. That established tycoon needs to travel abroad frequently, and he's willing to pay a high price for his own safety."
"Oh, who is it?"
Ye Chen asked curiously.
"Jiang Feng Shen, Jiang Lao."
Yan Xukong introduced.
"Jiang Fengshen? I've never heard of him?"
Ye Chen shook his head.
"It's normal that Mr. Ye isn't from Yuecheng and hasn't heard of him. I'm afraid even some locals in Yuecheng haven't heard of him either."
"Old Jiang is exceptionally low-key."
Strictly ordered, the opening is empty.
In Guangdong, many wealthy people keep a low profile.
Didn't we often see videos like that online before?
For example, there's an old man selling breakfast on the street, wearing a tank top and flip-flops, but it turns out he owns dozens of houses or even several buildings...
Jiang Fengshen is such a person. He is in the jade and jadeite business. In recent years, the price of jade and jadeite has skyrocketed. Jiang Fengshen has almost monopolized the jade business in Yuecheng and a large area around it. You can imagine how rich he is.
Unfortunately, Jiang Fengshen is sixty years old, but his younger generation is incompetent, and now he still has to personally handle every business transaction.
Jade and jadeite are mostly produced in those southeastern countries, and this region is notoriously chaotic.
People get very afraid of death when they get old, especially the super-rich who have an astonishing net worth.
For example, the most famous ones are those circulating online, such as the gambling king and Li Ka-shing, who are both taking "life-extending" drugs. Even more outrageous is that Li Ka-shing has invested in the research and development of "elixirs of immortality." These can all be found online.
Jiang Fengshen wasn't that crazy, but he was also very afraid of death. Moreover, when he went to the Southeast last year, he ran into a big problem. The group of bodyguards he brought with him wasn't very good, and as a result, Jiang Fengshen almost lost his life there.
Jiang Fengshen has to go again this year for business, so he urgently needs to hire a large number of powerful bodyguards and has offered a high price.
If the bodyguards are skilled enough, he will cooperate with them for a long time, and the profits will be even greater.
Yan Xukong explained Jiang Fengshen's situation to Ye Chen.
“I know Mr. Jiang, and I can help Mr. Ye make connections. I think the strength of Mr. Ye’s Yinglong Security Group’s bodyguards is definitely not a problem.”
"I wonder if Mr. Ye has any thoughts on this?"
Yan Xukong asked Ye Chen.
"OK."
Ye Chen thought about it and agreed.
Ye Chen agreed not only because the profit margin was high, but also because Jiang Fengshen was in the jade and emerald business.
As my own Qianrui Jewelry Company grows, it will also need high-quality jade and emeralds.
It would be great if this problem could be solved.
"Understood. I'll contact Mr. Jiang after the meal."
Strictly ordered, the opening is empty.
"As soon as I got the news, I immediately told General Manager Ye."
After dinner, because Ye Chen had been drinking, Yan Xukong found someone to be Ye Chen's driver and take him home.
The next morning, Yan Xukong sent a message saying that things were looking promising.
