Chapter 333: Chapter 174: My Name is Zhou Wang, Driving Someone into a Corner_3
"Big brother, just don’t hold a grudge against me, okay? After all, it was kind of a last-minute entry on my part, stealing your thunder."
Zhou Wang laughed.
"Come on, feuding over something so trivial? What’s that say about a person’s perspective... Let me introduce myself, little brother. I’m Guo Wangshan from Magic City. I dabble in various businesses, mainly in real estate and construction."
As Mr. Guo spoke, he began to introduce himself.
Zhou Wang understood and exchanged names with him.
Coincidentally, their names both had the character "Wang" in them.
Using this as a conversation starter, the two actually hit it off quite well, with almost no generational gap despite Mr. Guo being at least forty. He had a very open-minded way of thinking and was in tune with how young people communicate.
As for Zhou Wang, based on his mature way of speaking, he also found himself on the same wavelength as Guo Wangshan.
Of course, their mutual high emotional intelligence played a part in this.
They chatted for almost ten minutes and agreed that the next time Zhou Wang visited Magic City, they’d have a meal together. Only then did Zhou Wang hang up the phone.
Having unexpectedly met a business mogul from Magic City through an auction, Zhou Wang found it quite amusing.
At this point, he slowly made his way to the lounge area.
The factory had many areas that hadn’t been renovated yet, and the lounge was just a couple of sofas arranged in a circle. Everyone sat quite casually, although the drinks, cigarettes, and alcohol on the table were of a more expensive nature.
Zhang Zhiyuan seemed to have gone to pick someone up and hadn’t returned yet, while Ruan and Tang Yiming had already saved a seat for Zhou Wang, so he went over and sat down.
"Hey, Brother Dog, since you’re here, you might as well join the club, right?"
Tang Yiming, who had prepared beforehand, handed over a form with a smile. "I’ve filled in all the information I could, including your phone number, address, ID number, and whatnot. Just fill in the rest as you see fit."
While he hadn’t planned on becoming a shareholder of the 77 Super Car Club, Zhou Wang had no intention of rejecting an invitation to join.
As Zhou Wang filled out the form, he curiously asked a few questions, to which Tang Yiming explained the current operating model of their 77 Super Car Club.
For all members, they only need to pay a membership fee of ten thousand yuan in the first month. After that, the entire 77 Super Car Club would conduct various activities to not only raise its profile but also move towards a self-financing model.
Although it’s almost impossible to operate at a loss...
A high-profile super car club can have its hands in various profitable business activities.
For instance, when some real estate developments open, they invite the super car club to make an appearance. There are many similar large-scale events.
The commission they offer isn’t small. Members willing to participate can not only easily earn back their membership fee but could even make it a career if they’re diligent...
That’s just one way to play it. Another method involves collaboration with official institutions, a model that’s already been tried in some major cities around China—
The Super Car Carnival.
The aspects involved here are numerous, including culture and tourism, promotions, city branding, and commerce...
If a Carnival can be organized, they could even have traffic police clearing the way—quite the prestige.
"Brother Dog, I know you’re busy, but if there’s a major event, you must come. Our 77 Super Car Club’s Ming City branch is counting on your Ferrari 812C for some prestige."
Tang Yiming laughed after explaining, "Young Master Zhang is serious about getting a LaFerrari or a Porsche 918 to hold down the fort, but it’s still uncertain if he can find one."
"If there’s a real need, just let me know in advance. Even if I can’t come, my car can still show up."
Zhou Wang laughed as he handed the completed form to Tang Yiming.
Tang Yiming took the form, glanced at it casually, and was startled. Could Brother Dog have made a mistake? What was with all the identical digits in this phone number...
He was about to ask Zhou Wang when suddenly an exaggerated shout rang out.
"What the hell, Uncle Bing, is this for real?"
Several people frowned and looked over.
Since most were waiting, everyone was engaged in small talk, intentionally keeping their voices down. No one was particularly loud, so the sudden loud voice was quite jarring.
The loudmouth was Shao Xiaoqi, who didn’t care about the attention and exclaimed incredulously while gesturing dramatically toward Guo Bing seated in the middle.
"Uncle Guo couldn’t get it?"
"Keep your voice down..."
Though Guo Bing said this, he nodded and calmly admitted, "Yeah, my dad said there was an unreasonable competitor who raised the bid by more than two million, so he gave up."
"Add more than two million, so that’s fifteen million altogether?"
Shao Xiaoqi’s voice remained loud, making it hard to believe it wasn’t intentional. "Damn, if I spent fifteen million on a car, my mom would agree, but for a useless phone number, she’d probably break my legs!"
Everyone was baffled and didn’t want to engage, but after Shao Xiaoqi’s last comment, they were all stunned.
What the hell...
A phone number worth fifteen million?
Was this phone number for calling heaven?
Everyone present was somewhat worldly, but phone number valuations were too niche. In their experience, a good phone number might be worth tens of thousands at best, which was already impressive...
Fifteen million, this was beyond what normal people could imagine.
"Um... What are you talking about, a fifteen-million phone number?"
