I confess, I am the Mr. Richest -
Chapter 341: I thought about it, and I’ve been too low-key
Chapter 341: Chapter 341: I thought about it, and I’ve been too low-key
The mysterious man asked again, feeling quite unwilling.
Chu Chen was just too handsome. As a talent scout, he had merely caught a glimpse of Chu Chen from afar in the crowd, but he immediately sensed that Chu Chen had the makings of a star.
With his charisma, his looks, not becoming a star would be a huge waste.
If Chu Chen agreed, the scout was almost certain that as soon as Chu Chen stepped into the limelight, even without acting skills or singing talent, he could become incredibly popular just from his appearance, coupled with the promotion from their company, turning into a massive influencer.
Chu Chen was so handsome that it was almost intimidating to look directly at him.
How could someone in this world be so handsome, it was unfair, really.
As Chu Chen stood there, it was unknown how many young heartthrobs he overshadowed.
"Not interested."
Chu Chen shook his head again, what was being worth over a billion?
Chu Chen didn’t need to do anything now, and just from collecting rent every month, he could earn billions.
"Huh?"
Chu Chen’s words left the talent scout in great astonishment.
In this day and age, was there really someone not interested in money?
Could it be a mistake?
Ordinary people, upon hearing they could be worth over a billion, or even tens of millions, would probably nod repeatedly, incredibly excited, and agree immediately.
But why was this guy unfazed?
The talent scout was somewhat baffled.
"Then what if you were worth a billion and had millions of fans?"
The talent scout asked once more.
"Half a year ago, I was already worth over a billion. Now, I’m driving a Ferrari and living in Tang Palace."
Chu Chen shook his head, not wanting to be bothered by the talent scout any further, so he spoke the truth.
Half a year ago, when he just acquired the system, Chu Chen’s net worth had already surpassed a billion.
That was Chu Chen being humble too, because back then, having acquired Junlin Group, Chu Chen’s net worth was already over ten billion.
"As for having millions of fans, I probably had that several months ago."
Chu Chen estimated.
With the current influence of the "back view god," Chu Chen could open a verified Weibo account, and in less than half a day, his Weibo followers would easily surpass ten million.
"Over a billion net worth, driving a Ferrari, living in Tang Palace, and having millions of fans half a year ago?"
The talent scout was a bit stunned, how was that possible?
Watching Chu Chen closely for a while, the talent scout shook his head, wearing a mocking expression,
"Brother, it’s fine if you don’t agree, but boasting is not okay."
If it was the former, worth over a billion, driving a Ferrari, living in Tang Palace, he could barely believe it.
But having over ten million fans, as a talent scout, he really couldn’t believe it.
He knew almost all the celebrities with over ten million fans in the entertainment circle, and he was sure, Chu Chen wasn’t one of them.
Therefore, he concluded that Chu Chen was boasting.
Since the claim about having over ten million fans was false, the previous claims about being worth over a billion and driving a Ferrari were probably false too.
"Brother, one should be humble."
The talent scout advised Chu Chen,
"Don’t think that because you’re in front of a stranger, you can boast without needing evidence."
"Sometimes boasting comes with a price."
The talent scout spoke like someone with experience.
In his youth, he also enjoyed boasting, and as a result, society had taught him a harsh lesson, since then he became much more low profile and never bragged again.
Bragging might not get you struck by lightning but could get you "struck" by someone.
"One should be humble."
Chu Chen sighed, seriously reflecting on himself.
"Right, I did make a mistake just now."
Hearing this, the talent scout nodded slightly, thinking it was good to know one should be humble.
"I thought about it, earlier I was still too humble."
"To be honest, I broke the ten-billion mark long ago, and now I’m driving a Pagani HP Barchetta, with a villa in Tang Palace."
Upon reflection, Chu Chen said meticulously.
"Cough, cough, cough."
Upon hearing, the talent scout couldn’t help but start coughing violently.
Was he still too humble earlier?
You’re not humble at all.
Your boasting now is just too much.
Earlier you were worth over a billion, now it’s a trillion.
The Ferrari turned into a Pagani HP Barchetta.
What is a Pagani HP Barchetta, a world-class luxury car, priced over a hundred million?
Even the bigwigs of their agency, those top investors, not to mention buying one, couldn’t even imagine owning such a luxury car.
As for the last one, having a villa in Tang Palace, that was even less possible.
As a person from Shanghai, he knew very well the terror of Tang Palace, those who lived there were all the top figures in Shanghai, could ordinary people live there?
"Brother, your boasting is through the roof, you’re not too humble, more like too high..."
The talent scout mocked once more.
But before he could finish, Chu Chen gestured for him to quiet down.
A call came, and Chu Chen answered on his cell phone.
"Hello, yes, I’m the temporary driver, Master Chu."
Chu Chen had just received another order.
Looking at Chu Chen, the talent scout was instantly bewildered.
This time, it was not because of Chu Chen’s words, but because of Chu Chen’s phone.
Vertu Ferrari Limited Edition!
Most importantly, when Chu Chen took out his phone just now, the talent scout inadvertently saw the serial number on the phone—"1"!
"Did I see that right?"
"This is number 1 in the Vertu Ferrari Limited Edition?"
The talent scout was shocked beyond belief.
With other luxury items, whether clothes or bags, the possibility of fakes was very high, and unless you are a professional, it’s hard for ordinary people to tell if it’s real.
But a limited edition phone like this, produced together by Vertu and Ferrari, has almost zero chance of being counterfeit.
What was truly frightening was that the phone in this guy’s hand was serial number "1"!
Phones from such limited series with the serial number "1" would likely belong in the hands of high-profile figures, big tycoons.
Oh my.
This guy was not lying.
He really had a trillion-dollar net worth, drove a Pagani HP Barchetta, and lived in Tang Palace?!
He stood there as if struck by lightning, eyes wide open with disbelief.
This was too impressive!
And on top of that, this guy was so young and so handsome.
It’s said that heaven is fair, once someone is extremely wealthy, their looks tend to be somewhat ordinary, just like many top second-generation rich kids.
But in Chu Chen’s case, the scout suddenly felt, heaven is unfair.
This guy not only had incredible wealth, but also incredible looks!
"I have other things to do, so I’m leaving."
After finishing the call, Chu Chen said to the talent scout, turned around, and was ready to leave to do the driving job.
"Please wait a moment."
Suddenly, the talent scout rushed over and stopped Chu Chen.
"I’m sorry, I was wrong about that earlier."
"I apologize to you."
The talent scout said with utmost respect.
"I wonder if you’d be interested in investing in a movie?"
"Our company is about to shoot a film with unlimited potential."
The talent scout pitched to Chu Chen, thinking if he could get Chu Chen, such a super tycoon, to become an investor, the movie would definitely be a hit.
"Oh, what movie?"
Chu Chen curiously asked.
"It’s something all the girls love, ’The Dominant CEO with Stamina.’"
