I confess, I am the Mr. Richest-Chapter 433: What is Called a Comprehensive and Unrelenting Crushing (Second Update)
Chapter 433: Chapter 433: What is Called a Comprehensive and Unrelenting Crushing (Second Update)
Although his family was wealthy, they weren’t that kind of super-rich; over ten million, nearly twenty million, was already a lot for Zhang Zhengye.
He had racked his brains and spent so much money to buy a fake Patek Philippe-6002 Celestial Tourbillon!
Zhang Zhengye could hardly breathe.
He bought this watch just to show off, but now, the first time he tried to flaunt, it backfired completely.
As for the slightly chubby woman who had just mocked Chu Chen to flatter Zhang Zhengye, she stood dumbfounded.
This kid’s watch was real?
And Zhang Zhengye’s was fake?
The reversal was too great, so great that the slightly chubby woman couldn’t accept it at once.
"Chu bro, you’re impressive."
"To be wearing such an expensive Patek Philippe, you must definitely be a promising talent in Shanghai."
"Chu bro, here’s a toast to you."
Now that they realized Chu Chen’s Patek Philippe was actually real, at the dinner table, these people actively toasted Chu Chen, all trying to ingratiate themselves with him.
In contrast, Zhang Zhengye was being ignored.
Unconsciously, the most dazzling person at this banquet had shifted from Zhang Zhengye to Chu Chen.
The flattering voices aimed at Chu Chen reached Zhang Zhengye’s ears, making him quite angry.
All these praises and compliments were supposed to be his.
Now...
Wait a minute?
Suddenly, Zhang Zhengye spotted a problem.
"This appraisal expert must be fake, there’s something wrong with him."
Zhang Zhengye suddenly realized that if the appraisal expert said his Patek Philippe was fake, then was this appraisal expert a real expert?
"This time’s appraisal is definitely inaccurate."
Zhang Zhengye firmly stated.
He couldn’t believe that his Patek Philippe was fake.
"The appraisal expert is fake?"
After hearing Zhang Zhengye’s words, everyone went silent for a moment.
Zhang Zhengye actually made sense.
Nowadays, the most unreliable ones in society are the so-called "experts." Who knows if they’re real experts or just "brick specialists"?
Thinking about this, a few people in the room also changed their attitude towards Zhang Zhengye, becoming more enthusiastic.
"I have an idea, since the expert might be fake."
"Why don’t you guys have it appraised by Patek Philippe’s official appraisal, surely they can’t be fake?"
At this point, someone suggested.
"Makes sense."
"Just go to Patek Philippe for the official appraisal."
Ultimately, under Zhang Zhengye’s strong suggestion, Chu Chen took another picture and sent the photo to Patek Philippe’s official team.
"The appraisal might take a few days to process."
"We’ll see how it goes then."
Zhang Zhengye provocatively taunted Chu Chen.
Although Zhang Zhengye seemed calm on the outside, inside he was quite panicked.
Now he really lacked confidence in his Patek Philippe.
Regardless, they would deal with today’s issue and talk about it later.
The reason Zhang Zhengye had so readily agreed to get Patek Philippe’s official appraisal was that it would take a few days to complete.
In this way, no matter what the result was, it didn’t matter anymore.
After all, when the result came out several days later, no one would know it.
Even if it was fake, so what?
Today, he saved face, and face was the most important thing.
At this moment, Zhang Zhengye was feeling relieved and inwardly laughing gleefully.
Hahaha.
So effortlessly, he resolved a situation that was extremely awkward.
He was truly a genius!
...
At Patek Philippe’s headquarters, once they received the appraisal request, they immediately reported it.
After all, this was about appraising the legendary King of Watches—the Patek Philippe-6002 Celestial Tourbillon.
A manager at the Shanghai Patek Philippe branch received the report from his subordinate and, upon seeing the two watches, his expression changed immediately.
"I remember President Chu having a Patek Philippe."
The manager suddenly recalled that when President Chu came for an inspection, he was wearing a Patek Philippe-6002 Celestial Tourbillon.
Their model, the King of Watches, seemed to be owned only by President Chu in the entire country.
Could this appraisal be related to President Chu?
Anything related to President Chu wasn’t trivial!
With this realization, the manager quickly reported it.
In the end, once they learned it was possibly related to Chu Chen, Patek Philippe’s higher-ups personally organized an appraisal, swearing to conclude it within half an hour!
Matters involving President Chu could not be delayed.
If Zhang Zhengye knew that the appraisal result would come out within half an hour, he might literally cough up blood!
His little scheme failed.
Expecting results a few days later, he thought too much.
...
Not knowing Patek Philippe was busy appraising, and momentarily relieved of the suspicion of carrying a fake watch, Zhang Zhengye leisurely drank his wine.
Zhang Zhengye pondered how to reclaim the face he lost earlier, how to flaunt and crush Chu Chen.
He wouldn’t be satisfied until he blew off some steam.
This dinner party must be prolonged at all costs, extending the time of the gathering.
With extended time, he could outshine from every angle, crushing him 360 degrees, and let him know how cool he was.
After a while of thinking, Zhang Zhengye came up with a plan.
"It’s rare for everyone to meet up like this, a regular gathering is too ordinary."
"How about we plan a trip together next time?"
Zhang Zhengye suggested.
"Travel together, sure."
"I haven’t been out for a long time either."
Many people expressed agreement with Zhang Zhengye’s suggestion.
"How about this, everyone have a good chat later, and I’ll cover all the flight tickets this time."
Zhang Zhengye said with a gesture of wealth and indifference.
"All first class. I’ve booked all the first class seats."
Booking all the first class seats?
Was he that wealthy?
"Wow, Zhang, you’re amazing. Truly a millionaire."
"I’ve never flown first class before, thank you so much, Zhang."
"Being rich is great. When can I have even a tenth of Zhang’s wealth?"
Shocked by Zhang Zhengye’s "grand" gesture, several people in the room began praising him.
"Ah, I shouldn’t have invested before."
Zhang Zhengye said in a regretful manner, blaming himself:
"A while back, I invested five hundred million. In hindsight, it was such a waste."
"If I had bought a private jet back then, it would’ve been awesome."
"That way, everyone could’ve flown on my private jet."
Private jet?
They almost got to fly on a private jet?
What a pity, such a pity.
The chance to fly on a private jet for the first time in life, just missed like that.
Everyone sighed inwardly.
"It’s okay not to fly on a private jet, really."
"Investing is more important; you can buy a private jet later when you’re richer, Zhang."
A few of them spoke, with a tinge of regret in their tone.
"No private jet, you can use mine, though."
At this moment, an abrupt voice came.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone instantly turned their heads, focusing all their attention on Chu Chen.
What did that mean?
What did Chu Chen’s words mean?!
Did he actually have a private jet, one of those costing billions?!!
Everyone was shocked by their own guess!
