Zhao Chen remembered that in his previous life, when he was caught in a melodramatic situation, the Zhao family focused all their attention on Zhao Ziyun's medical treatment, which miraculously helped them escape the financial crisis.
In fact, Zhao Guohua had already wanted to invest in Southeast Asia before.
Recently, because of Zhao Chen, the Zhao family has been turned upside down.
With Zhao Chen now separated from the Zhao family, many things have changed.
In his previous life, Zhao Ziyun sought medical treatment solely because he wanted to gain his parents' attention.
It was also to annoy Zhao Chen, and she did it on purpose to show him.
Now that Zhao Chen is gone, he probably doesn't need to anymore.
Moreover, at this time his illness was not so severe that he needed the whole family to take care of him.
It's time to entice Zhao Guohua to seek investment in Southeast China.
Especially the Yue Kingdom, whose currency had depreciated drastically.
If you invest now, in a few months, the Zhao Group will be bankrupt.
Zhao Chen was happy to do anything that could make Zhao Guohua and his group suffer a setback, or that could bring the Zhao family to ruin.
Those were his beloved relatives and friends, his brothers and sisters!
How can we not give them a good thrashing and settle the score with the murderous grudge from our past lives?
"Charles, how are your preparations going?"
"Have you made contact with the Zhao family?"
At this moment, Zhao Chen couldn't help but ask his partner.
When Charles heard Zhao Chen's question, he chuckled and said:
“We were already prepared, and they took the bait.”
"When I, the young master, take action, I am quite capable; they have no doubts about my identity whatsoever."
"Besides, I did produce something substantial. The bait was laid out, and they took it immediately."
"It can only be said that the Zhao Group has always wanted to seek overseas markets, but there has been no good progress for a long time."
"Our arrival was like a godsend for them."
"They can't resist this temptation..."
"The key point is that we did have a lot of land in the Yue Kingdom, which we acquired at a very low price back then."
"Now that we've secured a huge investment from them, with land and various qualifications as collateral, it's hard for them not to believe us."
"However, dear Zhao, are you really sure there will be a financial crisis in six months?"
"Will the economy of Yue really collapse?"
Zhao Chen smiled confidently and said, "When you ask this question, it's like asking me if I'll win at betting on horses."
Do you think I would make a gamble without being certain of success?
"Besides, even if the financial crisis doesn't come, what does your investment in Vietnam amount to?"
"Even if you really lose money, it's just a drop in the ocean compared to the profits you're making from buying horses now."
"Others may not know, but do you think I don't?"
Hearing Zhao Chen say this, Charles became even more certain that he wouldn't lose out this time.
He rubbed his hands together excitedly: "Hehe, thanks to the Zhao Group's investment, we've borrowed so much money directly from banks in Vietnam. But we'll have to pay back Vietnamese dong."
"We've borrowed 100 million US dollars in Vietnamese dong right now. When the Vietnamese dong depreciates wildly, the difference will be our profit. How much do you think the Vietnamese dong will depreciate during this financial crisis?"
Zhao Chen simply smiled calmly; he didn't rule out the possibility of a definitive answer.
He knew that if he were to reveal the accurate information, the Williams family behind Charles would likely get involved and test the waters, which would create an exaggerated butterfly effect.
If he doesn't make it absolutely certain now, even if Charles invests his own money, the Williams family won't believe these things are true.
After all, before the Asian financial crisis, no one could have imagined that such a huge storm would suddenly erupt.
Zhao Chen possesses the prophecy of rebirth, but he dares not gamble too heavily on everything.
Always leave yourself a way out. Otherwise, you might end up ruining yourself.
Faced with Charles's question, Zhao Chen smirked and said:
"If you trust me, then invest more and short the Vietnamese dong."
"Of course, you can also remind your family members; maybe they'll follow suit?"
Upon hearing Zhao Chen's words, Charles gave a wry smile:
"I'm just an outsider, how could my family possibly accept my advice?"
Zhao Chen thought about it and realized that he would have many opportunities to collaborate with Charles in the future.
If Charles has a chance to advance further within the Williams family, it wouldn't hurt to give him a push.
After all, he will have many opportunities to use Charles's identity in the future.
Therefore, he said directly to Charles:
"Whether it's useful or not, you have to get your suggestions out there and make sure the higher-ups in your family hear them."
"I know they won't take your advice seriously. But after they miss this opportunity and see how accurate your suggestion was, do you think they'll elevate your status and value your opinions in the future?"
"If you make a few more accurate predictions like this, your status in the family will be completely different."
If Charles were even slightly smart, he would know how to cooperate with him.
Of course, Zhao Chen didn't actually place much hope on Charles.
Zhao Chen had a backup plan for everything.
In case of unforeseen circumstances, he will still have options.
This was a habit he developed when he was a hacker before he transmigrated into the book.
Every attack and defense has a plan B! Even a plan C...
Having backup plans is extremely important; it's always beneficial to have multiple options.
Therefore, while cooperating with Charles, Zhao Chen was also on guard against this guy.
Having been reborn three times, Zhao Chen has learned far too many lessons. He will never put all his chips on one table!
Charles's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing Zhao Chen's words:
"Haha, Zhao, you're right, I'll get on it right away!"
"You really are my lucky charm! I'll listen to you from now on."
In fact, Charles felt incredibly fortunate to have collaborated with Zhao Chen.
So much so that when a reporter later interviewed this super-rich member of the Williams family, he replied to the reporter's question, "The most successful investment of my life was my collaboration with Mr. Zhao Chen."
"Without my dear Zhao, I wouldn't be where I am today. He is also my lifelong friend."
The Zhao family had no idea that, because of their selfishness and ignorance, they had already stepped into an abyss of no return.
But at that time, the Zhao sisters received another piece of news that shocked them greatly:
"What?"
"Was Zhao Chen the first person to win the million-dollar prize on the 'Who Wants to Be a Millionaire' show?"
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
