surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The people present were not ordinary individuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this young man was really bragging too much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A DiDi Brother, who is a major shareholder in several big Groups?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one believed it at all when he said that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo sneered: “Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye is so impressive yet drives DiDi?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you think we’re all three-year-olds?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen, with an unfathomable look, said, “Young man, you don’t understand the world of the wealthy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Continuing, Ye Chen said, “To travel conveniently with Xiaoya, I specifically bought a G550 private jet, and I’m planning to buy a luxury yacht soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No choice, there’s just too much money!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone on the scene looked at each other in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Buying a yacht, this guy is crazy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo looked at Ye Chen with a mocking face: “Oh, you want to buy a yacht, huh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I know a friend, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Yun from Huayun Group, do you know him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s the Ship King of Hua Country, we’re pretty close, I can introduce you, you can contact him to buy a yacht.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Fang Bo’s eyes, Ye Chen was just bragging, so he deliberately said that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone else also looked at Ye Chen with ridicule.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A luxury yacht costs billions, how could a DiDi Brother afford it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen nodded: “Hmm, then you go ahead and contact him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the way, I want the biggest and most luxurious one, at least a three-thousand-person yacht.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gasp!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room fell into a dead silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one expected Ye Chen to actually want to buy a yacht.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And a three-thousand-person luxury yacht, oh my, how much would that cost?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo was also stunned, he originally wanted to give Ye Chen a hard time, but never dreamed that this guy actually wanted to buy a yacht.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Fang Bo in a daze, Ye Chen laughed and said, “Hurry up and call the Ship King.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo blushed and said, “I just changed my phone, I didn’t save his number.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Ye Chen’s phone rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello, is it Younger Brother Jiang?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who is this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am Dong Yun.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong from Huayun Group, the Ship King?” Ye Chen was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Ye Chen’s words, the room went silent again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seriously?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Yun actually called Ye Chen himself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially Fang Bo, whose face became even more unsightly, but his eyes were filled with suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a coincidence, Dong Yun called Ye Chen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No need to ask, it must be staged; this guy could just be a swindler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen glanced at everyone and deliberately turned on the speaker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Younger Brother Ye, impressive work, quietly acquiring thirty percent of our Huayun Group’s shares.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen chuckled: “Not at all, the main reason is that I value the strength of Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong’s company, just making a casual investment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Ye Chen’s words, Dong Yun’s mouth twitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Acquiring thirty percent of Huayun Group’s shares requires at least billions of funds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy actually said it was just a casual investment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Younger Brother Dong, how about we meet up sometime?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No problem, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong, I have one more thing, I want to buy a yacht, do you have a suitable one?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yacht?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haha, Younger Brother Ye, you’re too polite, why buy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We are now partners, I’ll give you a newly produced three-thousand-person luxury yacht as a gift.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, it’s nothing much,” Dong Yun laughed heartily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen continued, “Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong, I have a friend named Fang Bo, he said he’s a good friend of yours.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo, sitting to the side, blushed furiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he said earlier about knowing the Ship King was total nonsense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the Ship King’s level, how could he possibly know him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dong Yun paused for a moment: “Fang Bo, I don’t know this person, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye, there are many conmen around these days, you should be careful not to get swindled.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s gaze shifted to Fang Bo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo’s face turned as red as a monkey’s bottom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The slap in the face was resounding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen hung up the phone, and the room fell into a dead silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone looked at Jiang Chen with a completely different gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh my, to be able to be buddy-buddy with the Ship King Dong Yun, and gifting a luxury yacht at a moment’s notice, this is insane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, a sneer emerged in the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go on, keep making it up, Xiaoya, you have to open your eyes wide when choosing a boyfriend, this kid is clearly a con artist.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A con artist?” Everyone was taken aback.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo continued, “What level do you think Dong Yun the Ship King is on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would he personally call a DiDi Brother?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Moreover, he said he acquired thirty percent of Huayun Group’s shares.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Think about it, Huayun Group is the largest shipping company in Hua Country, worth thousands of billions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How much is thirty percent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More than 300 billion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you kidding that a DiDi Brother would have 300 billion?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We just mentioned Dong Yun, and Dong Yun called him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t you all think that’s too much of a coincidence?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo stared at Ye Chen, his eyes filled with a mocking expression: “So, I conclude he’s nothing but a conman.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Fang Bo’s words, everyone suddenly understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s right, Xiaoya, your boyfriend is going too far, how can he be like this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiaoya, have you been deceived by him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I said, how can a DiDi Brother have that much money?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Buying a yacht, hilarious, does he really think he’s the richest man in Hua Country?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Chen is not a con artist,” Tong Xiaoya stood up, furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Lili sneered: “Xiaoya, I know you have vanity, even for a temporary boyfriend, find someone reliable, bringing a conman is only disgracing yourself?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Li Na suddenly looked a bit stunned while checking her phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You guys should check the news headlines,” Li Na said anxiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was taken aback and hurriedly opened their phones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huayun suddenly announced a new shareholder, yesterday a mysterious shareholder with the surname Ye acquired thirty percent of Huayun Group’s shares, becoming the second-largest shareholder…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone browsed Huayun’s details, the largest shareholder was Dong Yun, and the company’s second-largest shareholder had already been updated to Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room was in a dead silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo was stunned!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Lili was stunned!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan’er was also stunned!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone in the class was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ye Chen, thirty percent shares!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second largest shareholder of Huayun Group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything matched up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes focused on Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room was pin-drop silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girls all looked at Ye Chen, their eyes full of admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh my, Ye Chen actually is a shareholder of Huayun Group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t that make him a billionaire?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo and Yu Lili completely couldn’t believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ridiculously, they were just mocking Ye Chen as a con artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen gave a faint smile: “Now everyone knows who’s the real con artist, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone looked at Fang Bo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s right, if the person on the phone was really Dong Yun, it means Fang Bo was lying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he said earlier about knowing Dong Yun was complete nonsense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fang Bo, you’ve gone too far.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is there any point in bragging in front of classmates?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, framing Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye, nearly got us all fooled by you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Bo was so embarrassed by his classmates that he wished he could find a hole to crawl into.\u003C\u002Fp>",1262,"2026-06-03T08:12:36.049Z","2026-06-03T08:12:40.664Z",1,"novelbin.me","f428a37a4475b3f5708ce2109e3114e4b27f22886bf7383b31b0dbe4e306378f","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-49","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-47",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
