Zheng Hao swiped his Weibo angrily while waiting for Nie Yunsheng’s call.
Nie Yunsheng replied not long after.
“Brother, listen to my advice. Why don’t we let this matter rest?”
“Boqun Media is determined to stand on Tengda Corporation’s side. There’s no hope.”
“All the companies that have business dealings with Tengda’s Cooperation Department have been successful so far. The companies in both games companies and other fields have been changed.”
“I’m afraid we can’t stand firm anymore using this point to attack Tengda Corporation.”
“If this continues, Boss Pei might not have a backup plan waiting for us.”
“To be honest, Brother, you’ve found a good angle this time. It’s a very hopeful attempt, but…”
Before Nie Yunsheng could finish speaking, Zheng Hao interrupted him angrily.
“No, I cannot accept this!”
“He’s just a student who just graduated from university. Why should he win every time? Even his management is better than mine? That’s impossible!”
“I still have one last card that I haven’t played. As long as I play it well, I can reverse the situation.”
Nie Yunsheng realized that Zheng Hao had been overwhelmed by anger.
Nie Yunsheng, Zheng Hao, and the others had to admit that Tengda Corporation’s Boss Pei was the scariest opponent and the most successful entrepreneur even though there were many friction in business.
However, this series of strange failures hooked the demon in Zheng Hao’s heart out.
Zheng Hao had always thought highly of himself. After graduating from university, he had gone through several twists and turns to start his own business. It was only then that he had achieved the satisfactory results of home delivery.
However, Tengda Corporation suddenly appeared and defeated him just as he was about to conquer the food delivery industry!
The key was that they had lost to a young man who had not even graduated from university. Who could tolerate that?
Nie Yunsheng knew that Zheng Hao’s last card was to directly target Boss Pei!
According to Zheng Hao’s investigation, Boss Pei’s performance in school could be said to be inconspicuous. He never appeared in public and never participated in any activities. Even his speech was done by his subordinates.
Not only that, Boss Pei’s results in various subjects were also very average. Many of them passed by the mark. 60 points was good!
This was not in line with what Zheng Hao saw.
That was because young entrepreneurs like Zheng Hao were basically influential people during their university days. Some were the chairmen of the students while others had already earned their first bucket of gold through mature business models during their university days.
All in all, as a young man at this age, he would definitely be very high-profile if he was lively and successful.
He had successfully crushed all his peers. Who could stand it if he did not show off?!
However, Boss Pei was too low-profile. That was not humane at all.
Thus, Zheng Hao boldly guessed that Boss Pei was someone who did not mean what he said. He was deliberately using this low profile to shape his character. In fact, he did not have that much real talent!
Boss Pei might be a kind person with strong management ability. He might have taken many outstanding talents under him.
However, it was impossible for Boss Pei to be like the rumors, a talent who knew everything. Many achievements were actually him using the results of his employees to create a golden character for himself.
Zheng Hao had wanted to use this last trump card as a fatal blow.
If there was no twist in the matter of the Boqun Media this time, Tengda Corporation’s entire management model would be pulled off the pedestal. Zheng Hao would take advantage of the victory to play his last card and bring Boss Pei along.
If he could succeed in these two steps, it would be an unprecedented blow to Tengda’s reputation.
However, it was a pity that the situation at Boqun Media had turned around. It would seem very deliberate to play Boss Pei’s card again.
Zheng Hao, who had been overwhelmed by anger, could not care so much anymore. He had to think of all ways to pull Boss Pei down from the high pedestal and try all ways to discredit Boss Pei.
He had already lost in the business model and in the battle of public opinion. He could only play close combat next.
Simply put, they could not afford to play!
If he was indignant about losing within the rules, he had to think of a way to get back at them through methods outside the rules. At the very least, he could not let the other party win too comfortably.
Nie Yunsheng knew very well what Zheng Hao was thinking. He wanted to persuade Zheng Hao, but he knew that it was useless no matter what he said with Zheng Hao’s character.
After all, they were working together. They were not superior or subordinate. They were not even brothers.
As the boss of a company, Zheng Hao had always kept his word. How could he change his mind because of a few words from Nie Yunsheng?
At that thought, Nie Yunsheng said helplessly, “Alright, since that’s the case, Brother Zheng, you can grasp it yourself.”
“The effect of this card might not be very good, but it might not be completely useless. If it can really be of some use, our other companies will follow immediately…”
Before Nie Yunsheng could finish speaking, Zheng Hao hung up in anger. Obviously, he had no patience to listen to these things.
Nie Yunsheng sighed silently and could only let him be.

…
June 30th, Sunday.
Li Shi and a few other investors were drinking and chatting happily at the nameless restaurant.
Li Shi started bragging about his experience as the person-in-charge for two months.
“To be honest, I don’t even want to go back to Fu Hui Investments as the person-in-charge of Dream Realization Ventures. The difference is too huge!”
“I’m in Dream Realization Ventures. I might be the person-in-charge of a department, but I’m free at work! Boss Pei has solved all the big matters. Leave the small matters to my subordinates. As the person-in-charge, I’m as comfortable as possible.”
“Of course, I’m not free all day. I’m thinking about investment every day.”
“I feel like I’ve gained a lot from these two months of thinking.”
“In the end, I’m not used to returning to my own company. I have to worry about all sorts of things personally. Sigh, it’s a long story!”
“That’s why I feel the same when I read the discussions online recently.”
“Many people asked why Tengda could modify these companies so successfully by just relying on one person who did not work overtime. Wouldn’t it mean that the employees are very lazy if they did not work overtime? How could it make the company develop very well? This is completely different from the inertial thinking of ordinary people like us.”
“However, I suddenly understood a principle when I came to Tengda.”
“For a company, individual struggles should not be encouraged, but group struggles.”
“A collective struggle is not to say that everyone is working overtime, but to say that the entire company has to go in the right direction.”
“At the end of the day, a person’s struggle would only cause an employee to improve. An employee works very hard, but he jumped ship after trying hard to improve himself. What help would that be to the company? No matter how much overtime he works, the last group of employees to stay would definitely be the worst!”
“What if it was a collective struggle? The entire company would walk in the right direction and provide security to the employees through various benefits so that the employees would work together. Then, the outstanding employees would not leave. The lazy employees would gradually change in this atmosphere. As time went by, they would be able to enter a positive cycle.”
“I know that this path is very difficult. most of the bosses who are not capable can’t walk it.”
“However, this is the way to run a company and start a business.”
“If they can’t get through, they can only say that they are not capable enough. However, if they can get through this company, they must be very promising.”
The other investors listened intently, looking envious.
He was genuinely envious that Boss Li could become the substitute person-in-charge and learn Tengda’s model deeply.
One of the investors asked, “Boss Li, have you been paying attention to Boss Zheng, the takeaway?”
Li Shi sniggered. “I did. However, in my opinion, this Zheng Hao is probably too anxious and angry.”
“They actually publicly doubted Boss Pei and said that they invited Boss Pei to a public debate?”
“Hehe, he’s afraid that he won’t die badly enough.”
“Do you really think that Boss Pei is just a Year Four student who just graduated? In my opinion, Zheng Hao is losing badly.”
“After leading the troops to war and suffering a crushing defeat, they are still unwilling to let go after being captured. Isn’t it stupid to want to fight the other party’s highest general?”
The investors nodded.
“That’s right. Boss Pei is a gifted genius. If Zheng Hao wants to debate with Boss Pei in person, he will only die more miserably.”
“However, Boss Pei has not given any response so far. He did not say that he would accept it. He just watched Zheng Hao perform like a clown online.”
“I think it’s understandable that Boss Pei is ignoring him. It’s good to slap his face in the face, but with Boss Pei’s identity and status, there’s no need to take such a risk to debate with a defeated opponent. The risk and benefits are not proportional at all.”
“I think it might be because it’s just in time for the weekend. Tengda is on holiday, so no one replied.”
The investors expressed their opinions one after another. Everyone felt that it was a pity even though they felt that Boss Pei did not have to personally debate with Zheng Hao.
That was because it would be quite interesting if Boss Pei personally took the field and rendered Zheng Hao speechless.
Li Shi pondered for a moment and said, “I think it’s mainly because Zheng Hao’s attack was a little strange this time. Is it important how many marks Boss Pei scored in school?”
“I don’t know what he’s thinking. Does the fact that Boss Pei did not score well mean that Boss Pei is not really talented? Does it mean that Boss Pei’s strategizing image was created through his character and could be exposed at any time? How strange!”
“Anyone who interacted with Boss Pei would be involuntarily captivated by Boss Pei’s talent. Only people like Zheng Hao would have such strange thoughts and think that Boss Pei was undeserving of his reputation.”
An investor said, “But if he continues to publicize it like this, it can really bring some negative effects.”
“At first, everyone thought that with Boss Pei’s talent, he would easily be able to get some national scholarships even if he did not get full marks for all the examinations, right? In the end, he passed all the subjects… His character might not have collapsed but it still disappointed everyone.”
Li Shi was very dissatisfied. “This means that Boss Pei’s mind is not on this at all. Boss Pei usually manages so many things in Tengda. He can even take some time to study and pass. That’s not easy!”
“If you ask me, Boss Pei might as well drop out of school. What’s the point of studying?”
The person-in-charge nodded. “That’s true, but Zheng Hao insisted on this point. It’s quite disgusting.”
“It’s just like how many fake writers refused to let go of some young writers back then. They thought of various ways to prove that these young writers were substitutes. In fact, they did not have real talent. That’s the same logic.”
“It’s indeed nonsense, but it will indeed cause negative effects. It’s really impossible to ignore it completely.”
Li Shi sipped his tea and said, “That’s true.”
“Sigh, this has nothing to do with us. Let’s see how Boss Pei wants to deal with it.”
