Chapter 832: Make an Example Out Of Him To Intimidate The Thieves

At the same time, in Dream Realization Ventures’ guest room, Pei Qian was reading a thick stack of documents that He Desheng had handed over. He was having a headache.

These were all companies related to Dream Realization Ventures. Some had already invested, while others were still queuing up to be invested in.

There was also a portion of the companies that had been sold after the company started making profits.

Pei Qian looked at the information of these companies, and his heart shook.

So many companies were starting to make money?

Fortunately, thank God that He Desheng followed his own instructions and sold them as soon as they earned money with no delay.

They would not make much money as long as they sold them early.

He Desheng saw Boss Pei’s brows furrow and relax from time to time. He did not know what Boss Pei had seen from these documents, so he did not ask.

“Boss Pei, should I call Jing Haibing over and let her explain the details to you?” he probed.

Pei Qian shook his head. “Don’t bother.”

These documents were quite simple and concise. Pei Qian could completely understand them. What’s more, Pei Qian could invest as he pleased. It would be good if he incurred losses and it did not matter if he made a small profit. Thus, he felt that there was no need for Jing Haibing, who was in charge of the finance department, to come and explain to him. It would be too troublesome.

Pei Qian flipped through the companies that had already earned money and sold their shares. He casually said, “Some of these companies that have earned money are developing better while others have collapsed.”

Of course, Pei Qian did not feel sorry for those companies that earned money. However, he felt a little pity for those companies that could not make it after Dream Realization Ventures withdrew its investment.

Pei Qian felt that this was a little strange.

Dream Realization Ventures continued to invest in companies that did not make money; those that Dream Realization Ventures withdrew were companies that had already made profits.

Since they had already made profits, it meant that the company had found a healthy profit model. As long as nothing went wrong, they would be able to slowly grow.

However, some of the companies did not expand after Dream Realization Ventures left. Instead, they suddenly died. That was strange.

He Desheng smiled slightly and said, “That’s right, Boss Pei. They are both profitable. Some companies are really profitable. Some companies are like the Cold-Faced Lady, making profits through some financial means. The profits are good, but the company’s situation is not good. They are using the profits to pull in more investments.”

“We divested both of them. The former had already passed the most difficult period so they could only be getting better while the latter showed its true colors.”

Pei Qian was furious. “Can’t people trust each other more?! Can’t we be less scheming and more sincere?”

It did not matter if he did not have the capability, but if he had bad intentions, he would be shooting himself in the foot!

The companies which puffed up at one’s own cost would have continued to receive Dream Realization Ventures’ transfusions if they had honestly admitted to incurring losses. In the end, they insisted that they were making profits. Great, it ended with Dream Realization Ventures divesting its investment.

Without the most basic integrity, it would not never be your turn to spend Boss Pei’s money!

He Desheng sighed with emotion. “That’s right. Everyone knows that business is based on integrity. If you treat others with sincerity, you will always receive rewards. However, how many people can really do that in reality under the temptation of benefits?”

“I have to say, Boss Pei, your move is really brilliant!”

“Profitable companies would be sold. On the one hand, it would help those companies that really wanted to do real work and form good karma with them. On the other hand, we would kick those companies that are falsifying profitability and harboring evil intentions, avoiding the risk.”

“We might be earning less money but we are earning our reputation and punishing scammers. That’s killing two birds with one stone!”

Pei Qian: “…”

What the f*ck do you mean by killing two birds with one stone!

I don’t need to kill two birds with one stone. I just want to spend more money. Is it that so difficult?!

Pei Qian put aside the information about the companies that had made profits and were sold. Then, he continued to look at the information about the companies that were still incurring losses and Dream Realization Ventures.

“Eh? What’s the situation with this company? I remember that they spent a lot of money and created a huge marketing campaign. Why are they cutting two-thirds of their marketing fees now and using it to make products?”

Pei Qian had read about other companies and had an understanding about them when he invested six million yuan into the Cold-Faced Lady previously.

The few companies that liked to advertise, do marketing, and spend money quickly left a deep impression on him.

Originally, these companies were all big spenders and were the targets of Pei Qian’s focus. However, in the latest information, they either cut a portion of their marketing costs and reduced their costs or spent their expenses on polishing products and hiring talents.

Since Dream Realization Ventures had sent funds to these companies, the contents were clearly written on the documents and brought to Pei Qian.

Pei Qian was unhappy that he was spending less money.

He Desheng chuckled. “Boss Pei, it’s obviously your idea to make an example out of the Cold-Faced Lady! Who would dare to mess around with us after that?”

Pei Qian was confused.

?

Make an example of them?

From the Cold-Faced Lady?

What are you talking about?

Every word was clear, but Pei Qian could not understand them all.

He Desheng continued. “The companies that continue to incur losses and take money from Dream Realization Ventures are divided into two categories.

“The first type is making products seriously. It’s just that they don’t have enough money, abilities, or resources. These companies will continue to take money from Dream Realization Ventures, recruit talents, and fight for resources. They will slowly become better. The founders of the companies feel that they have done their best and have a clear conscience. Naturally, they don’t need to change anything.”

“The second category would more or less be related to Meng Chang’s habits.”

“They did not work hard on their products and spent all their money on marketing. Some people wanted to generate high valuation profits, and some people might purely not be smart enough to tell which was more important.”

“Meng Chang and Cold-Faced Lady’s case obviously served as a warning to others and to intimidate the thieves!”

“Even someone as strong and smart as Meng Chang was severely punished by you, Boss Pei, because of his bad intentions. He became an executioner and lost his reputation, let alone small fry like them?”

“If they don’t change, they will end up like Meng Chang!”

“Thus, all of these smart entrepreneurs panicked.”

“Before this, many small companies that were waiting in line for us to invest voluntarily quit. Those who had already received the investment also changed their behavior in the past. They did not dare to spend money extravagantly on marketing. Instead, they paid more attention to the products themselves.”

“Obviously, these people have some schemes on their minds. They don’t want to be the next Meng Chang. The Cold-Faced Lady’s situation is like the Sword of Damocles floating above their heads. It makes them tremble in fear and they don’t dare to have any other thoughts!”

“Cold-Faced Lady, this battle can be said to have settled everything with one battle: Previously, many entrepreneurs felt that Dream Realization Ventures’ money was the easiest to obtain. However, they now realize that while Dream Realization Ventures’ money is easy to obtain, the consequences of not doing anything are also the most disastrous!”

“This way, even if Boss Pei shifted your focus to other industries, Dream Realization Ventures would continue operating perfectly. No one would dare to come here to cheat money!”

Pei Qian was silent.

He had never thought that a little cold-faced lady could have such a deep impact.

The worst situation that Pei Qian could think of before was to sell the Cold-Faced Lady’s shares and make a huge profit. That would only increase the pressure of spending money.

However, from the looks of it now, it was not just about making a huge profit.

Objectively speaking, the Cold-Faced Lady had served as a warning to others. In the future, the chances of Dream Realization Ventures investing and incurring losses would be greatly reduced!

Pei Qian sipped his tea quietly, feeling a mix of emotions.

Pei Qian had thought he had set a foolproof strategy for Dream Realization Venture to sell after being profitable and to continue investing if it was in a loss position.

However, a series of things had happened. Pei Qian’s hopes were completely dashed. What’s more, this plan had the opposite effect!

Pei Qian threw the thick stack of documents on the coffee table and sipped his tea quietly.

“That’s all for today.”

“I’ll give you another sum of money later. Just invest it as you see fit.”

Pei Qian had already decided to give up on Dream Realization Ventures. Thus, he did not ask for much from He Desheng.

However, even if he gave up, he would still provide him with money. It was still a little difficult to burn all the money on the ‘Mission and Choice’ project alone.

As the saying went, don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Dream Realization Ventures had to share some of the pressure.

As for what would happen if he were to make money in the future… He could only think about it in the future. He would deal with this cycle first.

He Desheng looked at his watch. “Alright, Boss Pei. It’s time to meet with Meng Chang. He should be here soon. I’ll go and welcome him.”

Pei Qian sipped his tea in the guest room while thinking about life after He Desheng left.

The initial plan was perfect. How did it end up like this?

Life was really unpredictable.

Meng Chang arrived before long.

Pei Qian was a little surprised to see Meng Chang so dejected.

Why, I haven’t seen him in a while and he became depressed?

Pei Qian had originally thought that Meng Chang was someone with extremely strong mental fortitude. It would not affect his mentality even if he was beaten down. However, that was obviously not the case from the looks of it.

Pei Qian poured a cup of tea. “Come, sit down and have some tea.”

Meng Chang was filled with vigilance and wariness. At the same time, he felt a little fearful.

What was Boss Pei up to?

You’re the one who invested the money, and you’re the one who ate me up. Now you’re also the one who called me here to work for you.

Meng Chang felt like he was being played by Boss Pei. He could not figure out what Boss Pei was going to do next. This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

Meng Chang had always felt that he was one of the smartest people around until he met Boss Pei.

He had seen through all of his plans and plotted against him in secret. Yet, he still smiled and invited him to drink tea when they met… This Boss Pei was too scary!

Meng Chang would never have wanted to meet Boss Pei again if not for the fact that he wanted to earn more money to get rid of his beaten down status as soon as possible. That was because he would feel immense pressure even if he was just going to talk!
