Losing Money to Be a Tycoon Chapter 733

Chapter 733 - Boss Ma's Questions

Ma Yang, who was seated in the front row, yawned and smacked his lips, wondering why the news conference had not ended after more than two hours.

These people were asking endless questions!

It sounded so boring, but the people behind seemed to be very excited and kept asking questions.

Ma Yang had wanted to leave a long time ago. However, he was sitting in the first row after all. It would be too obvious. This time, he was here on behalf of Brother Qian. He was afraid that it would affect him if he left, so he could only sit in boredom.

He Desheng turned his head and asked softly, “Boss Ma, do you have any questions for him?”

Ma Yang shook his head. “Question my a*s. I’m not interested in roasted cold noodles at all. I feel sleepy listening to it.”

He Desheng nodded. Indeed, Meng Chang had spoken so much about the internet and used so many words that he had created himself. Other investors were listening with relish, but to Boss Ma, it was like chewing wax.

It was good not to ask questions.

That would save Boss Ma the embarrassment of asking a question. He would not be able to exit gracefully with so many investors watching.

Don’t talk too much and leave on the dot and he would have completed the task given by Boss Pei.

He Desheng did not intend to ask any questions.

He Desheng’s attitude was similar to Li Shi’s. He could not ask anything useful now.

Meng Chang had his own perfect theoretical system and business model. His ability to adapt on the spot was also top-notch. No matter the questions asked by the investors, he would definitely be able to answer them.

There was not much difference between asking one more or less question.

Soon, the investors were almost done asking questions.

That was because most investors had the same questions in mind. Once one of them obtained an answer, the others would not ask the same question again.

Meng Chang glanced at the time. It had been two and a half hours.

The timing was as expected.

The investors had been asking questions for half an hour. It was enough to show that the news conference was very successful. It had attracted the attention of the investors.

It did not matter even if he could not get any investors this time. After these investors left, the Cold Faced Lady brand would definitely spread widely in the investment circle and attract a certain amount of attention.

That way, he could use various marketing methods to generate popularity in the future. That would give him a good foundation.

Someone would definitely invest in it given enough time and traction.

Meng Chang was just about to announce the end of the news conference when he swallowed his words.

He suddenly felt like something was missing. The news conference was not complete!

His gaze swept across the entire place, and then stopped on the long face in the front row.

Meng Chang immediately understood.

There had been no questions from the Tengda Corporation’s representative!

As an entrepreneur, Meng Chang had a very important quality: shamelessness.

Was he still human if he didn’t take advantage of the popularity that was delivered to his doorstep?

Ever since Meng Chang received this investment, he had been thinking of ways and means to ride on Tengda’s popularity.

Promoting the investment he had received from Tengda, including the fact that he had emphasized in his speech that ‘cold-faced lady’ and ‘Fish-Catching Take-Out’ were completely differentiated marketing were all him trying to ride on Tengda’s popularity.

The reason why he wanted to talk about Fish-Catching Take-Out alone was to give investors a false psychological hint. He wanted them to think that Tengda was intentionally supporting the ‘cold-faced lady’ and Fish-Catching Take-Out as differentiated marketing with each other.

These investors would naturally make further guesses. When the ‘cold-faced lady’ grew stronger in the future, could it also make use of Fish-Catching Take-Out’s delivery men and even integrate and cooperate on a commercial level?

Once the psychological hint gave the investors such ideas, the chances of them investing in the ‘cold-faced lady’ would greatly increase.

And Boss Ma was fully representing Boss Pei now even though Boss Pei did not attend.

Yet, Boss Ma remained silent. How boring was that?

No matter how he thought about it, he would not be at a disadvantage if Boss Ma asked him one or two questions.

He could tell the outside world after the news conference that Tengda Investment’s higher management thought highly of the ‘cold-faced lady’ business model as long as Boss Ma did not question or oppose his business model. That would be great.

What if Boss Ma questioned it very clearly?

Meng Chang felt that this was extremely unlikely.

There might be many problems with his business model, they could not be verified.

In layman’s terms, one could only say that the model would not work if it failed in business. However, it was impossible to find the logical flaw in the model purely through debate.

Of course, there was also a third possibility: Boss Ma refused to ask questions.

However, this way, Meng Chang could also say that his business model was perfect. Even the higher management of Tengda Investments would not be able to find fault with it.

All in all, it would be beneficial to him to shift the attention of the audience onto Boss Ma.

At that thought, Meng Chang immediately turned to Boss Ma. “Boss Ma, do you have any questions?”

Ma Yang was casually playing with the ten yuan bottle of mineral water in front of him when a staff member handed him the microphone.

He was about to say ‘no’ when He Desheng nudged him lightly with his elbow.

He Desheng lowered his voice. “Boss Ma, just ask two questions.”

Ma Yang could not tell what was going on, but He Desheng could.

Even though He Desheng had followed Boss Pei’s rules and invested two million yuan into Meng Chang, he was not very happy that Meng Chang was trying to ride on Tengda’s popularity.

If Boss Ma said that there was no problem, he would be rubbed in even harder. Thus, He Desheng quickly reminded him.

Ma Yang did not know what was going on either, but since He Desheng wanted him to ask questions, he might as well ask.

He took the microphone from the staff and cleared his throat.

However, at that moment, he did not know what to ask.

Ma Yang stared at Meng Chang.

Ma Yang racked his brains but could not think of anything good. He could only ask casually, “Your roasted cold noodles… is it delicious?”

Meng Chang was stunned and felt a little dizzy.

What was the meaning of this?

Why didn’t Boss Ma act according to plan?

Who would ask something like that?

I’ve been telling you about the business model and how it would relate to the internet for two hours. How could I have been probing on the deliciousness of the roasted cold noodles?

However, he reacted very quickly. He was stunned for only two seconds before he immediately reacted. He smiled slightly. “The question of taste differs from person to person. Everyone will give different answers.”

“The ‘cold-faced lady’ would hire a professional nutritionist in the first stage to fully control the ingredients, production process, and other aspects of the roasted cold noodles.”

Ma Yang nodded. “Oh… so you can guarantee that the roasted cold noodles will taste good this way?”

Meng Chang was stunned again. “In theory, this is an inevitable outcome.”

Ma Yang nodded and did not ask further. However, he did think of another question.

“What does multi-dimensional fusion mean? I don’t understand.”

“Why don’t you explain it?”

Ma Yang looked squarely at Meng Chang on stage.

Two hours of speech was indeed way too long and Ma Yang listened to it intermittently. That was why he did not remember the other terms, only the term ‘multi-dimensional fusion’ left a deep impression on him.

Meng Chang was stunned again.

How could he not understand it?

This might be a term he coined, but it shouldn’t be incomprehensible, right?

What’s more, it was already ridiculous that you didn’t understand it. How dare you say that you didn’t understand in front of so many investors? Are you trying to get me to explain again?

It looked like a very stupid question, but Meng Chang stopped underestimating him and became wary.

How could the Vice-President of Tengda, who used to be in charge of investments, be stupid?

A simple answer seemed to become extremely dangerous in an instant.

However, time was tight, and Meng Chang could not think for long.

“Simply put, multi-dimensional fusion is the combination of ecology in multiple dimensions. It works together, producing a chemical effect similar to fusion reactions and generating huge energy.”

“In business, there is a similar model. Once you succeed, you can obtain huge… business returns.”

Since he could not figure out why Boss Ma was asking this, Meng Chang could only choose the most reliable answer.

Ma Yang was silent for two seconds. “Fusion is a physical reaction.”

Meng Chang: “?”

Ma Yang continued, “In other words, your ‘multi-dimensional fusion’ is basically a collaboration between the various departments.

Meng Chang cleared his throat a few times. “Er… if you use the most layman terms, you can understand it this way, but this understanding is not comprehensive. That’s because ‘multi-dimensional fusion’ focuses on a more macroscopic aspect and is of a higher level compared to multi-dimensional coordination and integration. The difference in levels would make the same thing become substantially different…”

Ma Yang pondered for a moment. He had already asked two questions; that seemed about right.

He nodded. “Alright, I have no other questions.”

Meng Chang felt as if a huge burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He quickly smiled and said, “Alright, thank you very much for your questions, Boss Ma! The press conference today will end here. If anyone is interested in the ‘cold-faced lady’, feel free to come and talk to me…”

After the news conference ended, some investors stood up and left. Some investors went up to talk to Meng Chang, obviously wanting to ask more questions in private.

Ma Yang had been waiting for a long time. He was like a primary school student who had waited impatiently for school to end. He dragged He Desheng away.

However, Li Shi took note of everything that happened.

Xue Zhebin noticed Li Shi’s strange expression and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong, Boss Li?”

Li Shi looked at Ma Yang’s back view as he walked away. He frowned, deep in thought.

“Is Boss Ma capable of asking such questions?”

“Tsk, it doesn’t look like it.”

Xue Zhebin was confused. “Why? Are these questions of a high standard?”

First, he asked if the cold noodles were delicious. Then, he asked what the word ‘multi-dimensional fusion’ meant. What kind of standard was that?

If it had been Xue Zhebin, he would not have dared to speak in front of so many investors and bosses. That was because the problem was too simple and childish. It was a little embarrassing.

Li Shi shook his head. “If you think that way, you’re gravely mistaken!”

“The two questions that Boss Ma asked, including every word he said, hit Meng Chang’s vulnerable spots, making him very uncomfortable!”

“Of course, Meng Chang is extremely smart after all. He reacted quickly and responded flawlessly.”

“His on the spot adaptability is indeed very strong.”

“However, no matter how strong that ability is, he was still inferior to Boss Ma in terms of ‘power’. A not so clever investor might not be able to tell, but a smart one would definitely be able to sense it.”

“However, this is not enough to shake the investors’ expectations of Meng Chang. It’s just that Meng Chang’s goal of attracting investment would not go so smoothly.”

Li Shi remained silent for a moment and sighed. “Based on my understanding of Boss Ma, a game theory of this level is definitely not something he is capable of doing.”

“He Desheng might be slightly better, but his skills are still lacking. He doesn’t have that ability.”

“I’m afraid Boss Pei had already instructed Boss Ma to do this before he sent him here. Boss Ma is passing on a message for Boss Pei!”

“That’s right. Even if Boss Pei did not know about the ‘cold-faced lady’ at the beginning, he must have received the news after Meng Chang used Tengda’s name to gain popularity.”

“A minor character of this level is not worth him coming out personally. If he really came, Meng Chang would seize the opportunity to increase his popularity.”

“Therefore, Boss Pei sent Boss Ma over to represent Tengda, giving a hint and expressing his stance. He was also trying to knock Meng Chang down.

“Meng Chang should be able to sense it given his level of intelligence.”
