"Zhao, why do I feel like you're talking so irritatingly? It sounds a bit like you're showing off."
"What's that saying from the East again? It's called 'showing off'..."
Charles couldn't help but make a comment about Zhao Chen.
But it must be said that Zhao Chen was indeed very handsome in his eyes at that moment.
He watched Zhao Chen transform from a fat guy into a handsome man.
It's said that every fat person has potential, and Zhao Chen, after losing weight, is arguably the most handsome person to have undergone plastic surgery.
He clearly did nothing but lose weight, yet he became incredibly handsome. His features were sharp and deep, radiating an elfin charm.
Sometimes even Charles couldn't help but marvel at how Zhao Chen's charm was becoming more and more irresistible.
Hearing Charles's complaint, Zhao Chen smiled and waved his hand:
"Charles, why don't you work out with me?"
"Look at you, you've been making more money lately, and you've gotten fat too."
"Don't end up making money but not being alive to spend it."
"A healthy body is something that money can't buy."
As Zhao Chen spoke, he slammed the barbell down on the ground with a loud bang.
Charles, who was standing next to him, was startled.
"You Zhao, in your Eastern parlance, you're worse than an animal!"
"Can I compare to you? And even work out with you?"
"What a crazy idea it must have been for me to risk my life with you. I want to enjoy a few more years of life."
"Hehe, Zhao, you were right after all. The horse racing club is our money bag."
"The money has been growing, and the stocks over there have also made a profit along with you."
"Besides the business with Yue and Mao Xiong, where else should we go to make some money?"
At this moment, Zhao Chen revealed a confident smile:
"Charles, do you like football?"
Upon hearing this, Charles immediately became interested: "Hey! Need I say more? England is a football powerhouse!"
"Our English class is going to participate in the World Cup this year."
"Oh! Fuck! Don't tell me our next money-making opportunity is in the World Cup?"
Zhao Chen raised an eyebrow and replied with a smile:
"So, I'm willing to work with smart people."
"Chatting with you saves me a lot of trouble."
"That's right, our next goal is the World Cup."
"Find a reliable betting platform to place your bets."
"Of course, we have to place bets on all the major betting markets around the world, just in case some people can't afford to lose and refuse to pay up."
Upon hearing Zhao Chen's words, Charles couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Zhao, don't tell me you're one of those hidden big shots who can control the outcome of a match!"
Charles is willing to believe anything Zhao Chen says now.
Because Zhao Chen's predictions have never been wrong.
Charles even felt that Zhao Chen possessed a divine touch.
Anything that falls into Zhao Chen's hands can be successfully accomplished without any problem.
Given this, it's hard for him not to suspect that Zhao Chen has another identity.
Hearing Charles say that, Zhao Chen couldn't help but laugh even more happily:
"Look how scared you are. Of course I'm not one of those people who can control the outcome."
"But I can predict some of the outcomes. And quite accurately."
"As for how I made that prediction, you don't need to worry about it."
"Anyway, the principle is the same as when we bet on horses."
"With certain data models, the results will be very accurate."
Upon hearing Zhao Chen's words, Charles swallowed hard once again.
He wanted to shout "God!" Why are there such smart people in the world, and yet they're still cooperating with him?
Zhao Chen had his reasons for doing this.
Although Charles is a good person, once he has made a lot of money and risen in status, he is prone to becoming arrogant.
Charles is slowly starting to show signs of getting cocky.
Zhao Chen needed to put an end to his conceited attitude.
Furthermore, he should be told that Charles's current wealth is all thanks to him, Zhao Chen.
He could make Charles so much money, and he could also make him penniless.
Zhao Chen does indeed have such methods; it remains to be seen whether Charles can withstand the test.
Zhao Chen's display of his strength now undoubtedly serves as a powerful deterrent to Charles.
Zhao Chen's data processing and predictive abilities are terrifying.
If Charles were to do something detrimental to Zhao Chen, he could likely predict it immediately using data models.
If that were the case, Zhao Chen might have already struck first before he could even make a move.
Charles is a very intelligent man; he just hadn't had the opportunity to demonstrate his abilities and ambitions before.
Now that he has money, he has more options at his disposal.
At the same time, he both trusted and feared his partner, Zhao Chen.
Therefore, despite the fact that the two worked together very well, Zhao Chen did not reveal too much information to the other party.
It's fine as it is now.
Having figured out these key points, Charles decisively pledged his loyalty:
"Dear Zhao, just tell me what to do next."
"I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
Charles patted his chest, left this promise, and prepared to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Zhao Chen.
"Charles, I'm preparing to leave in a few days and head to the interior."
"The next ten or twenty years will be a period of explosive growth for the internet in mainland China."
"If we enter the game now, we might be able to cultivate a few unicorns in the future."
"Even if I have a lot of money and a keen eye, it is still very difficult to acquire these unicorns."
"However, things would be different if you joined us."
"We used to make quick money, now we want to make money in the long run!"
Upon hearing Zhao Chen's words, Charles became even more interested.
Zhao Chen gave him a big stick, and then gave him a treat.
Moreover, these dates are especially big and sweet.
Charles expressed his envy of Zhao Chen's promising future as a commentator.
If he can really secure a foothold in those few unicorn companies, he'll never have to worry about wealth and luxury for the rest of his life.
Although his share is still only a small percentage compared to Zhao Chen's, it is still something that Zhao Chen could only dream of before.
Finally, Charles, having nothing more to say, simply nodded emphatically:
"I agree, I'll work for you!"
"From now on, you are my Napoleon. I will fight wherever you point!"
Hearing Charles's words, Zhao Chen rolled his eyes in annoyance:
"Napoleon didn't have a good ending; he suffered a Waterloo."
"Don't worry, our achievements will be even more formidable than Napoleon's!"
At this moment, Zhao Chen stared intently towards the east.
This is where he will rise to prominence in the future.
He made his first real fortune in the port city. After acquiring a large amount of funds, he orchestrated the Southeast Asian economic crisis and the Russian credit crisis.
Now, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
It's time to go back and settle accounts with those scumbags!
But to Zhao Chen's surprise, before he even got back, a very important person came to his door.
