Chapter 250: Chapter 160: Triple Defeat for Zhou Zhenyang—You Can’t Act Tough in Front of Me

Adding Fang Yingqi’s look of disdain made Zhou Zhenyang’s state of mind collapse.

No matter what, today I must maintain my dignity!

"Since the conversation has reached this point, I can’t compromise. Either you give me this venue, or I’ll cancel my membership and go next door! You choose! Later, I’ll have someone hold a banner at your club’s entrance, letting everyone know how your shareholders bully Platinum Card members, and everyone will go next door instead of staying here! Can you handle this loss? Losing so much for one shareholder, you’d better think about whether it’s worth it!" Zhou Zhenyang’s lips curled up, full of threat.

Chen Jinying was indeed in a dilemma, at a loss of what to do.

Losing such a wealthy client, and letting him cause a scene, the club would certainly suffer significant losses. The worst part is that they would go next door, which was something Chen Jinying could not accept.

But Yang Chen had just acquired 30% of the shares, second only to Chen Jinying’s 45% shares. Letting Yang Chen, as a shareholder, lose face on his first visit was certainly unacceptable.

Onlookers talked in whispers.

"This is Young Master Zhou’s trump card, truly unsolvable!"

"Chen Jinying definitely wouldn’t sacrifice such a big client for one shareholder and tarnish the club’s reputation."

"Oh no, wouldn’t Mr. Yang, who spent a fortune acquiring 30% of the shares, be quite unfortunate then? Spending a fortune acquiring shares, only to be humiliated on his first visit, those shares in hand wouldn’t seem as attractive anymore."

...

Zhou Zhenyang looked smug, feeling that his plan was an unsolvable strategy, even if everyone knew his intention, there was no way to crack it.

Fang Yingqi: "Zhou Zhenyang, do you have to push things this far?"

Zhou Zhenyang: "Hehe... no need to make it sound so harsh, as a consumer, don’t I have the right to choose?"

Yang Chen chuckled and said, "Young Master Zhou might be disappointed; with me here, you really don’t have a choice. You can’t go next door, and you’ll only be able to play at small clubs in the future."

Zhou Zhenyang: "Why? Just because you say I can’t go, does that mean I can’t?"

Yang Chen took out the Black Gold Card from the neighboring Jinhai Club, and said, "That’s right, I say you can’t go, so you can’t go. I’ve also bought 30% of the shares of the next-door Jinhai Club, when I say you can’t go, you can’t go!"

"Ah?"

The crowd couldn’t help but exclaim, even Chen Jinying was shocked, her eyes widened.

Who exactly is this formidable person?

To actually acquire 30% shares of both Jinhai and Jinying!

So what exactly does he want to do?

Could it be just for investment purposes?

But he can’t possibly be unaware that Jinhai and Jinying are mortal enemies!

Acquiring shares of both competing enemies ensures one side’s profit and the other’s inevitable loss, how exactly is he planning this?

Yang Chen wanted to say that everyone should not overthink; it’s mainly because the system provided too much.

Chen Jinying: "Mr. Yang, could I take a look at Jinhai’s card?"

Yang Chen nodded and handed the card to Chen Jinying.

Chen Jinying carefully checked the card repeatedly, confirming it was indeed a shareholder’s card issued by Jinhai Club.

Jinhai and Jinying were originally one entity, only split due to a sibling inheritance dispute.

The two both claim to be the legitimate successors of the old Haisang Elite Club, so much of the original design from Haisang Elite is still used.

As mentioned before, Jinhai and Jinying’s shareholder cards are completely identical, the only difference being the issuing entity—one says Jinhai, the other Jinying.

So, as a major shareholder of Jinying Club, Chen Jinying could indeed confirm that this Jinhai shareholder’s card was real.

Chen Jinying returned the card to Yang Chen, saying: "I didn’t expect Mr. Yang to be so strong, acquiring 30% of shares in both our clubs."

Yang Chen replied with a smile, "It’s okay, it wasn’t that much money."

Chen Jinying was astonished, as acquiring 30% shares of Jinying Club alone cost 2 billion, Jinhai’s side wouldn’t be less, which means Yang Chen spent over 4 billion to acquire 30% shares in both clubs, and that’s considered not much money?

What exactly is his background?

There’s no way he amassed such wealth at such a young age through his own efforts, there must be a powerful force behind him.

Zhou Zhenyang: "You...you’re crazy? Why did you acquire shares in both Jinhai and Jinying? Don’t you know they’re mortal enemies?"

Yang Chen: "I know, but that doesn’t affect my acquisition of their shares. Now then, I’m giving you two choices. First, behave and play at the adjacent venue. Second, cancel your card, and go play at some other small club."

Zhou Zhenyang kept emphasizing that golf is an aristocratic sport, and it’s only at a big club that its prestige is shown; what’s the point of a small, unknown club?

So, he would either stay at Jinying Club or go next door to Jinhai Club. If neither was possible, he would give up playing golf entirely.

The onlookers once again changed their tune.

"Let it go, what’s the point of arguing with someone who spent tens of billions acquiring shares?"

"You started this, after all. They didn’t hold you responsible and gave you compensation; that should be enough." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Considering golf is a noble sport, being blacklisted by both Jinying and Jinhai means you might as well say goodbye to golf. Surely not joining a small club workshop? That would be too degrading."

...

Just a moment ago, they advised Yang Chen to smarten up and not get entangled with this Platinum Card client, Zhou Zhenyang.

Now they advised Zhou Zhenyang to let it go, not to tangle with this shareholder, Yang Chen.

They really are fence-sitters, swaying with the breeze.

Fang Yingqi sneered and said: "Zhou Zhenyang, why don’t you just take the step down, must you embarrass yourself?"

Zhou Zhenyang laughed heartily and said: "Things have reached this stage, I don’t care about a peaceful ending anymore. I’ll say it here, if you dare to revoke my membership card, I’ll get Zhang Xiang to sue you! Have you heard of Zhang Xiang? The guy reputed to bring down the opponent’s lawyer with them! Our company collaborates with their firm, and at my word, he’ll help me sue your club to closure! Want to revoke my membership card still, ridiculous!"

Yang Chen sighed helplessly and pulled out his phone to call Zhang Xiang.

Soon, the call connected.

Zhang Xiang: "Mr. Yang, what can I do for you?"

Yang Chen: "I’m calling on behalf of Zhou Zhenyang; he needs your legal assistance!"

Then, Yang Chen said to Zhou Zhenyang: "Young Master Zhou, I forgot to tell you that I’m also the third-largest shareholder of Zhang Sanfeng Law Firm. I’ve connected you to Lawyer Zhang, now you can tell him how to sue me and Jinying Club!"

Instantly, the crowd fell into silence.

From afar, the sound of balls being hit at the neighboring club’s course suddenly became the most jarring noise in the entire area...
