Chapter 548 Is a mere ten million worth risking your life?
Just when people all over the world were talking about how awesome Yang Chen was, he was lying on the rooftop garden of Tomson Yipin, drinking red wine and enjoying Wang Qianni's massage service.
"By the way, how is your Qianni doing?" Yang Chen asked.
Wang Qianni: "Hehe... With your help, the future is bright. So many celebrities and LV designers have helped me stand up, and even the boss of LV has come. How can I still do it? Thank you, dear
, I’ll give you a reward and let you do whatever you want. How about it?”
Yang Chen: "Are you sure this is a reward for me, not you?"
Wang Qianni sat on Yang Chen and said, "We already have this kind of relationship, so what's the difference between you and me? Shouldn't it mean that you are in me, and you are in me?"
Yang Chen: "..."
She is indeed the most cruel among the many confidantes, and she speaks so cruelly.
Yang Chen picked up Wang Qianni and went downstairs to avoid being seen on the rooftop.
In the afternoon, Yang Chen went out to solicit customers.
The first destination was the China International Finance Center. As soon as she got on the bus, the female passenger urged: "Handsome guy, please drive faster, I'm going to queue up to buy something."
Yang Chen: "Okay. Little sister, what do you want to buy and you still have to queue up?"
Passenger: “Buy LV’s new handbag.”
Yang Chen's eyes lit up and he quickly asked: "LV's new handbag? What kind of handbag is it?"
The female passenger showed the photo to Yang Chen.
I'm super, isn't this the canvas bag that Yang Chen designed at the invitation of the LV eldest princess in the building outside the West Lake building for aunties to buy groceries?
At that time, Yang Chen was embarrassed to refuse the invitation from the LV eldest princess, and he didn’t want to design a new product to harvest the IQ and wealth of the people, so he casually made this design. Can it be popular even if it is a horse-riding thing?
Yang Chen: "Little sister, are you sure you need to queue up to buy this canvas bag?"
Passenger: "That's right! This canvas bag is very popular. You can't buy it without queuing up. 588 each is so cheap. After all, it is a LV canvas bag. It's more honorable to take it out."
Yang Chen: "But this is just a canvas bag after all. The cost price is only a few yuan. Are you sure it is worth spending 588 yuan to buy it?"
Passenger: "Haha... don't you understand? If it is just an ordinary canvas bag, it is indeed worth only a few dollars. But it is an LV canvas bag, and 588 for one is too cheap. For those who want to experience
For people who have a sense of luxury from LV but don’t have much money, this model is perfect. Ah, of course, it’s not that I don’t have money to buy a better bag, I bought it for my mother to buy groceries.”
I am super, my family, who knows, Yang Chen’s original purpose for making such a design was not to prevent LV from harvesting the IQ and wealth of the Chinese people.
After all, who can spend 588 to buy a canvas bag that costs only a few yuan?
But Yang Chen seriously underestimated the IQ and vanity of the Chinese people. A canvas bag of 588 was still sold out, and they actually lined up to buy it. Who can explain this?
"Oh...it feels so uncomfortable." Yang Chen muttered in a low voice.
If LV makes money, Yang Chen's dividends will also be larger. He should be happy.
But he was still heartbroken to see that the IQ and vanity of the Chinese people were so outrageous.
When will I get back to normal?
All the people queuing up to buy this canvas bag are poor people. Why?
Because the real rich people are VIPs, whenever a new product is launched, the waiter will send a message in advance to report it. If VIP customers need it, the waiter can deliver it to their door or pick them up into the store. They will never have to queue.
The more people waiting in line, the more vanity poor people there are.
Can Yang Chen not feel uncomfortable?
He desperately wanted to win face for the Dragon Kingdom in the international community. He was unwilling to suffer even a small loss. He would rather risk his reputation and fight to the end with those international giants.
For what?
In addition to making money, it is more about making the world dare not underestimate Dragon Kingdom.
But no matter how hard he tries, he can't bring these pig teammates with him. Will he have to be laughed at by foreigners after this horse is exposed by foreign media?
"Why are you upset? You also want to buy it, but you are reluctant to buy it?" the passenger asked with a smile.
Yang Chen: "I feel bad that you actually lined up to spend 588 to buy a canvas bag. I think the news will expose this matter soon, and netizens will definitely scold you."
Passenger: "Haha... That's so normal. Every time LV releases new products, those poor people will scold them. But what's the use? We will still buy what we should buy, and LV will still sell if we should sell it. They are poor and can't understand
It’s just the life of us rich people. For them, buying LV is vanity and pretentiousness, but for us, buying LV is just normal consumption. It’s like a person who earns one million a month, he spends it on treating guests to dinner every month.
The money for entertainment must be at least 100,000 yuan. To him, this is a normal social expense, not extravagant and wasteful. But for some poor people, it is unimaginable to spend 100,000 yuan a month just for entertainment. It is two people.
People in the world cannot understand that it is too normal. If we live to take care of their consumption concepts and aesthetics, what is the point? They are not worthy of us doing this. Don’t you think so?"
Damn it, these words are so impeccable that Yang Chen can't even find a reason to refute it.
She has already moved out her normal consumption, what else can she say?
Yang Chen smiled and nodded, saying: "What you said makes sense. But I always feel that when buying something, you should consider its actual value, and you can't deviate from it too much."
Passenger: "When you have money in the future, you will understand."
rich?
When it comes to personal wealth, who else is richer than Yang Chen now?
This is not a question of more or less money at all, but a question of consumption values. Otherwise, Wang Nianming would not have said the classic saying "I am rich, not sick."
Not long after, they arrived at the International Financial Center.
Yang Chen parked the car and went in to see the queue situation.
Hey guys, there are already two long queues outside the LV store.
Yang Chen walked forward. The female passenger was queuing up just now. When she saw him walking over, she quickly waved and said, "Handsome guy, are you here to see the excitement?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yang Chen: "Let me see how popular this canvas bag is."
Female passenger: "Well, you've seen it now, isn't it very hot?"
Yang Chen smiled and nodded, and said: "It's really more popular than I imagined. Come on, I'll take you in, there's no need to queue."
Female passenger: "Haha... this is LV, not a supermarket. Only VIP customers can enter first, and other customers have to queue up. Are you a VIP customer?"
Yang Chen shook his head and said: "That's not true."
Female passenger: "So, even if you don't buy anything and just go in to take a look, you still have to queue up."
Yang Chen: "I am one of the bosses of LV, so there is no need to queue. Come on, I will take you in."
Female passenger: "Don't make trouble. I just came here in your online taxi. Why are you the boss of LV again?"
Yang Chen: "Driving an online ride-hailing service is just a job for me to pass the time. Can you get in? If not, I'll go in by myself."
After saying that, Yang Chen walked towards the store door.
The female passenger did not believe that Yang Chen was one of the bosses of LV, so she just smiled and did not follow him.
But when she saw the LV clerk bowing to welcome Yang Chen into the store, her eyes widened in shock.
"Let me go, is he really one of the bosses of LV?" The female passenger said to herself and hurriedly ran over at a sprint speed of 100 meters.
"Handsome guy, handsome guy, wait a minute, please take me in with you," the female passenger shouted.
Yang Chen looked back at her, and then said to the waiter beside him: "Let her in."
The waiter nodded and quickly stepped forward to greet the female passenger to come in.
Those people in line were unwilling. They were not VIPs, so why could they get in?
"What's going on? I've been waiting in line for more than half an hour. What do you mean? You don't have to wait in line anymore, right?"
"I heard just now. He is not a VIP. He said he is one of the bosses of LV and you let him in? I also said that I am one of the bosses of LV. Can you let me in too?"
"Go through the back door and rely on connections, right? Then just say you can go through the back door, and we can go through the connections, so you don't have to queue up here."
…
The waiter quickly explained: "He didn't lie, he is really one of our bosses. He is Mr. Yang Chen, the second largest shareholder of LVMH Group, and the designer of canvas bags. Therefore, he can come into the store at any time.
You don’t need to line up like everyone else.”
The customers who were queuing up immediately went crazy and quickly took out their mobile phones to take pictures of Yang Chen.
"Are you Boss Yang? Wow, you are so young and handsome? I thought a man with such ability would be a little old man."
"Boss Yang, you are my idol! Both Pfizer and Merck were forced to withdraw from the Dragon Country market due to your abuse. You are so awesome."
"I asked myself why I find this canvas bag so pleasing to the eye. It turned out to be designed by Boss Yang. What does this mean? It means that Boss Yang and I have the same aesthetic!"
…
Yang Chen was also speechless. If his aesthetics were at this level, he would be embarrassed to come out and meet people.
"Thank you for your support. I really didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic about buying, because I think 588 is too expensive for a canvas bag, and not many people should be willing to pay for it. It seems that I am too young and underestimated everyone's spending power. ." Yang Chen said tactfully.
"This is not an ordinary canvas bag. This is an LV canvas bag. It was designed by you, Boss Yang. 588 is not expensive at all. I even think it is cheap. It should be priced at 5888."
"Yes, if the price is too cheap, how can it show the nobility of LV?"
"Boss Yang, if you come up with more designs in the future, I will definitely pay for it."
…
Yang Chen laughed loudly and said: "No, no, I may have really underestimated your spending power, and I will not make any designs for LV in the future."
In fact, what Yang Chen meant was that he overestimated the IQ of these people. No matter how weird and spoof the design was, as long as it had the LV brand on it, these people would pay without thinking.
Yang Chen's idea of preventing these people from having their IQ and wealth harvested through vulgar designs doesn't work, so he should just let them be.
"Ah! So this canvas bag is your out-of-print design, Boss Yang?"
"Here I go, Boss Yang's final product. I originally only wanted to buy one color, but now I have to buy all three colors, otherwise I won't be able to buy Boss Yang's designs in the future."
"That makes sense. I have to win all three colors and I must support Boss Yang."
…
Yang Chen: "..."
well……
Hopeless.
Yang Chen didn't bother to tell them anymore, turned around and walked in to choose something.
I'm going back to the capital soon. Let's buy some gifts for our confidantes here in Haicheng.
The store manager personally stepped forward to serve Yang Chen and said, "Hello, Mr. Yang. What do you want to see?"
Yang Chen: "Lady's bag. I want a new style."
Store manager: "Okay, Mr. Yang, please come with me. These two models have just been launched. See if you like them."
Yang Chen: "I feel that the styles are all similar, there is no big difference. Just these two models, take five of each."
Wang Jiayi, Wang Qianni, Yuan Xiaozao, Tang Xia, Chen Qingxia, Yu Shishi, Lin Yiren, Cheng Junjun, and then Jin Ming and cousin Li Xiaofei will be rewarded with one each. The ten bags are just used up.
Store manager: "Okay."
Yang Chen: "I'll leave you the address later, and you can ask someone to send it to me according to the address, one for each address."
Store manager: "..."
Yang Chen: "Is there a problem?"
Store manager: "No, no."
Obviously the store manager was frightened by Yang Chen's words. One for each address. Doesn't this mean there are ten?
Sure enough, the true nature of a man.
The store manager took Yang Chen to the checkout counter, brought paper and pen and handed them to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen wrote down all ten addresses and gave them to the store manager, and warned: "Just say I delivered them, don't say any other nonsense."
Store manager: "Understood!"
Yang Chen: "How much is it?"
Store manager: "A total of 1.28 million."
Yang Chen took out his Chang Shopping Card, and the store manager quickly took it and swiped it.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After signing, the store manager quickly escorted Yang Chen away with a few clerks.
At this time, the official media finally reported the news of people queuing up to spend 588 to buy LV canvas bags.
The evaluation given by a certain official media was "stupid and vain". Yang Chen could only smile helplessly when he saw this evaluation.
In the evening, the confidantes received the bags one after another, and each of them sent messages or called to thank Yang Chen, and even asked him to go there in the evening.
Yang Chen hated that he didn't have the ability to clone himself, so he couldn't satisfy them at the same time.
When you finish work in the evening, go to whoever is closest to you.
At 10:30 in the evening, Yang Chen sent a passenger to his destination. Just as he was about to call it a day, a masked man rushed into the car and pressed what looked like a hand QQ to the back of his head.
"Drive! Hurry up!" said the eldest brother.
Am I super, did I encounter a fugitive or a robbery?
The bodyguard behind noticed something was wrong and quickly got out of the car and ran over to take a look.
Yang Chen was worried that their appearance would make the big brother behind him excited and his hands were shaking, so he quickly stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
"Brother, relax, I can't see your face, don't kill me. I'll take you wherever you want to go. Okay?" Yang Chen reassured.
The eldest brother sniffed and said: "Stop talking nonsense, just drive honestly. I won't hurt you. But if you dare to play tricks, my gun will not recognize anyone."
Yang Chen: "Understood."
At this time, the elder brother's cell phone rang.
He connected the phone and cursed: "Where did you go on horseback? Didn't I ask you to drive and wait for me outside?"
The other party: "I parked outside waiting for you, but a police patrol car came. I was worried that they would become suspicious, so I drove away quickly. When I came back, you had already run away. I heard a police car coming.
Well, they should have called the police. Where are you now?"
Big brother: "I don't know where I am now even if I'm riding a horse, and I'm not familiar with this place. I won't tell you anymore. I'll contact you when I get settled. Be careful when riding a horse, don't get caught."
The other party: "Okay, I understand. How much did you steal?"
Big brother: "I don't know, in such an emergency situation, how many more can I count? I'll hang up and won't talk anymore."
The eldest brother hung up the phone and muttered and cursed: "Made, you are not reliable! It's up to you to pick me up. I have been arrested by the police. Anyway, you are of no use. Don't blame me for being greedy and not giving you any points."
"
Yang Chen finally understood. This eldest brother also had an accomplice. The accomplice was responsible for picking him up, but he was scared away because he encountered a police patrol car.
The eldest brother put the gun on the back of Yang Chen's head again and said: "Log out of the Beep account, turn off the phone, and turn off the video and audio recording in the car."
Yang Chen: "Okay, I'll listen to you. Brother, don't get excited. I'm particularly afraid that your hands will shake. Give me one."
Big brother: "Haha... Don't worry, I still need you to take me out of Haicheng. I will never hurt you. As long as you take me to Hangcheng, I will give you two gold bracelets and two strands of gold necklaces. I will never hurt you."
I will treat you badly."
Yang Chen: "Thank you, brother, I don't need it. Look at what you exchanged for your life, how can I ask for it."
Big brother: "It's okay. You are also exchanging your life for these things. I will give them to you, and you will take them."
Yang Chen: "Mainly, I don't need it. For such a small amount of money, if I am mistaken as your accomplice, I will be wronged."
The eldest brother smiled and said: "I am super, you are quite capable of boasting as an online ride-hailing driver. I will give you a few bracelets and necklaces, some of which are worth 100,000 to 80,000 yuan. Is this such a small amount of money?"
Yang Chen: "Ah? Only 100,000 and 800,000 yuan? I'm super, I thought it was worth 1.8 million yuan. It's overestimated. Then I can't take it anymore. I'll be mistaken for your accomplice for 100,000 yuan."
, my relatives and friends will laugh at me if they find out."
The eldest brother was unhappy after saying this and said: "How can you brag so much? How much money can you make as an online ride-hailing driver? How can you not even think about 100,000 yuan? You can't let me give you all this."
Bar?"
Yang Chen: "Then how much are these things of yours worth in total?"
The eldest brother did not count the items in detail when he robbed them, but when he went in to check out the items, he estimated that the value of the gold items inside was between 8 million and 10 million.
"About ten million," the elder brother said.
Yang Chen: "Wow, brother, I'm not telling you, it's not worth it to work hard just for a mere 10 million! You said you can't earn 10 million by doing something, do you need to commit robbery? With this amount of money, you will be sentenced to life imprisonment, or even
The death penalty is possible. Have you killed anyone?"
Big brother: "I don't know if he's dead or not, but I gave him a shot in the stomach."
Yang Chen: "Then the death penalty is gone. You said you risked your life just for 10 million, is it really worth it?"
The reason why Yang Chen dared to talk to his elder brother like this was because he could see that he would not die within 24 hours.
Moreover, Yang Chen also has to find a way to save himself, and cannot really become his hostage and escort him to Hangzhou.
The eldest brother was a little doubtful about life, and said: "If I hadn't known that you were an online ride-hailing driver, I would have thought your family ran a bank based on your tone. You don't take ten million in your eyes?"
Yang Chen: "Then I will definitely not take it seriously."
Saying that, Yang Chen pulled over and stopped the car.
The eldest brother asked hurriedly: "What are you doing? Who asked you to park?"
Yang Chen: "Don't get excited, don't get excited. Didn't you tell me to turn off the video, recording, mobile phone, etc.? How can I turn it off while I'm driving the car?"
Big brother: "Give me your cell phone and I'll turn it off for you. You turn off the others."
Yang Chen nodded and handed the phone to his elder brother.
At this time, a bank in Switzerland sent a text message, reminding Yang Chen that 500 million meters of gold had been credited to his account, with a balance of more than 36 billion meters of gold.
The robber brother looked at these two long numbers and fell into deep thought...
