"Ding ding!"
Just then, Li Wanwan sent a message, "Chen Feng, when you pick me up after class later, could you bring me a cup of milk tea?"
Although the counterfeit phone Chen Feng used could log in to QQ, it did not have a background running function. Therefore, he could only receive QQ messages when he actively opened the application.
Li Wanwan was clearly aware of this, and in order to ensure that Chen Feng could see her request in time, she sent a text message directly.
"Drinking too much of that stuff is bad for your health."
Chen Feng replied with a text message.
Recently, Li Wanwan has been drinking a cup of milk tea almost every day.
Chen Feng knew that milk tea was Li Wanwan's childhood obsession, and logically, he shouldn't have interfered.
The problem is that milk tea these days is full of technology and rudimentary techniques, and Chen Feng is worried that if Li Wanwan drinks too much, she might develop some strange or unusual illness.
Chen Feng didn't receive any more text messages from the young rich woman, but he did receive Du Lei, along with Zhao He and Jiang Dandan following behind Du Lei.
"Boss, I'm sorry, the cooperation deal has fallen through."
Du Lei had a bitter face. "Boss Zhang said we were asking for an exorbitant amount and didn't know what we were talking about. Not only did he disagree with the 100,000 yuan offer, but he also scolded me. Now, he's not even willing to pay the 30,000 yuan sponsorship fee."
"It's alright, this only proves that Zhang Chunbo is short-sighted, it's not your fault."
Chen Feng had long anticipated this outcome; otherwise, he wouldn't have been observing the commercial street across from the school. "In a way, I have some connection with Shuntong Driving School, which is why I wanted to give Zhang Chunbo a fortune. Who would have thought he wouldn't cherish it? How pathetic and lamentable!"
Upon hearing this, Du Lei and Zhao He exchanged a glance, while Jiang Dandan looked on with disdain.
Back in 2007, driving school tuition was around 2,000 yuan.
What does a naming rights fee of 100,000 yuan mean?
This means that even without factoring in costs such as labor, venue, and equipment, Shuntong Driving School would need to recruit 50 students to break even.
And with all this, Chen Feng still dares to say he'll give Zhang Chunbo an overwhelming fortune?
They're clearly your sugar daddy, Chen Feng!
"Boss, don't be discouraged. I'll go talk to other merchants."
As he spoke, Du Lei made a move to leave.
"No."
Chen Feng said, "Didn't you say that Shuntong Driving School is the biggest business in the area? Even Zhang Chunbo wouldn't spend 100,000 yuan to sponsor the school beauty pageant, so other businesses are even less likely to agree to the conditions we're offering?"
Du Lei was just putting on an act. When he heard Chen Feng stop him, he naturally stopped and gave Zhao He a pleading look.
"Cough cough..."
Zhao He immediately understood, cleared his throat, and said, "Boss, actually 30,000 yuan is quite a lot. How about this, Du Lei and I will go to Boss Zhang, apologize to him, and you can also compromise and accept the 30,000 yuan sponsorship fee..."
"Zhang Chunbo berated Lao Du, and you want to take Lao Du to apologize and admit his mistake? Aren't you shameless?"
Chen Feng glanced at Zhao He and said, "You guys go ahead with your work. I'll handle the sponsorship issue."
"Boss, stop pretending."
Jiang Dandan couldn't listen anymore. "Under your leadership, Douyin has already fallen out with the biggest business around the school, and you still say you have a solution... What solutions could you possibly have?"
Zhao He and Du Lei were startled and kept winking at Jiang Dandan.
Regardless of the circumstances, Chen Feng is still the boss of Douyin.
Employees publicly accused their boss of being pretentious...
Isn't this just asking for trouble?
What if Chen Feng fires Jiang Dandan in a fit of anger?
It's important to know that the wages Douyin pays them are three times the average part-time job pay for college students!
However, as it turns out, Zhao He and Du Lei were overthinking it.
Chen Feng showed no signs of anger whatsoever; instead, he looked at Jiang Dandan with a smile, his eyes filled with admiration.
As a middle-aged man who has been reborn, Chen Feng still possesses the most basic tolerance for others.
Moreover, Chen Feng could tell that Jiang Dandan meant no harm; she was just worried about Douyin's future prospects and angry at his own stubbornness, which was why she spoke without thinking.
To put it bluntly, Jiang Dandan was only doing it for her own good.
To put it nicely, someone like her is straightforward and outspoken; to put it bluntly, she's just a hothead.
But every company needs a bold and outspoken young man who dares to tell the truth, so that he can pour cold water on the boss when he loses his way.
"Boss, there's a time and place for showing off."
Ignoring Zhao He and Du Lei's hints, Jiang Dandan continued, "Douyin has not yet generated any revenue since its inception. If we can get the 30,000 yuan sponsorship fee, it will not only help you recover your losses, but also stabilize the morale of the employees and boost everyone's spirits."
"On the contrary, if a campus beauty pageant doesn't make a single penny, everyone's enthusiasm will be greatly diminished."
"Once morale is low, the team will be very difficult to lead!"
"As a TikTok fan, don't you even understand such a basic principle?"
Chen Feng glanced at Zhao He, who was playing the good cop, and then at Jiang Dandan, who was playing the bad cop, and couldn't help but sigh.
He finally understood why Zhao He and Jiang Dandan hadn't stayed in the office, but instead appeared in front of him.
It must be that Du Lei was unhappy with his "exorbitant demands" and called them down to persuade him to change his mind.
"If I said I really had a way, would you believe me?"
"Don't believe me!"
Jiang Dandan rolled her eyes dismissively. "I'll swear right here and now that if you can really get a merchant willing to pay 100,000 yuan for the naming rights, I won't take my salary this month!"
Chen Feng's eyes lit up immediately.
Do cattle and horses only work and not eat grass?
Is there really such a good thing in the world?
Is this really true?
"Don't worry, I'm a man of my word, I will never go back on my promise."
Jiang Dandan said irritably, "But let's get this straight: if we can't find a 'sucker' merchant, you have to apologize to us and promise to listen to our opinions in the future."
"make a deal!"
Chen Feng agreed without hesitation, "Go back to work. You'll hear good news from me soon."
Seeing that Jiang Dandan wanted to say something more, Zhao He and Du Lei each took one of her arms and dragged her toward the gate of the entrepreneurship center.
Even so, Jiang Dandan still retorted to Chen Feng a couple of times.
"Waiting for your good news? I'd be lucky if I didn't get the devastating news of Douyin's bankruptcy!"
"I think you're a typical case of being blinded by love, living in a dream world!"
Chen Feng curled his lip, "What kind of love is this? Didn't I tell you long ago? My heart is sealed with cement for life!"
He muttered to himself as he took out his phone to check the text message Li Wanwan had just sent.
This message is very short, only two words.
【elder brother!】
Chen Feng's body trembled. "Damn it, the cement in my chest seems to be loosening a bit!"
