My Life Can Hang

Deception naturally requires acting skills, which Stant did not say.

Otherwise, this product would not be able to deceive the young daughter of the F1 boss.

"Tony Tetro."

Chen Dongcheng shook his head with a smile and said a name.

Suddenly, Stant's face changed greatly.

It took a long time to restore calm, and looked at Chen Dongcheng seriously: "Sorry, I disturbed."

After speaking, he turned around and left without any hesitation.

They are all smart people, and some things naturally don't need to be said too thoroughly.

chapter 599, Metro sells himself

Tony Tetro.

This name may be unfamiliar to ordinary people.

But this guy is an absolute genius, having been sentenced to 6 months in prison for forging artworks that are almost like the real thing.

Otherwise, Stant would not have bought eleven paintings from his studio.

It is unknown to whom the paintings were sold by Stant.

Now when I hear Chen Dongcheng mention Tony Tetro directly, Stant has never met an expert.

As soon as Stant left, the place was immediately clean.

I went shopping with the two girls, bought some clothes and bags, and returned to the villa with the bodyguards.

Before leaving, Chen Dongcheng also held a small dinner at home and invited Lewis and Candy.

One of the two helped match the yacht, and the other was responsible for helping them build the manor.

Having a good relationship with them is beneficial.

Lewis and Candy are also very happy to be invited to their home, which undoubtedly proves that their relationship has made good progress.

After enjoying a sumptuous dinner, the three of them drank red wine, sat on the terrace of the villa, and chatted about interesting things in the upper circle of London.

It is mainly Lewis who is talking about him, he is the oldest, has been in the mall for many years, and has a deep network of contacts.

Candy, who is also one of London's newest billionaires, occasionally interjects.

But compared with Lewis, it is far worse.

At nine o'clock, Lewis and Candy were escorted by bodyguards and left.

Chen Dongcheng went upstairs and asked the two girls to go to bed early.

Luo Yuyan and Zhuang Shiyu, who were busy trying new clothes, responded and continued to close the door.

Back in the master bedroom, Chen Dongcheng hugged Zhuang Manting, who had just fallen asleep, and fell into a deep sleep.

……

"Wake up so early?"

Zhuang Manting was holding her cheek with one hand, quietly looking at Chen Dongcheng who was sleeping, and she was startled when she suddenly saw him open his eyes suddenly.

"Yeah, I'm leaving today. There are many things in the country waiting for me to deal with."

Chen Dongcheng hugged Zhuang Manting last night and slept soundly. He took Zhuang Manting into his arms and put his chin on Zhuang Manting's head with a soft tone.

"Don't worry about me, I am well taken care of by my parents here, and Shi Yu and Yu Yan are with me to relieve my boredom. Besides, we can still make frequent videos."

Although Zhuang Shiyu was also very reluctant, he also knew how huge a man's career was, and it was unrealistic to want him to stay by his side all the time.

After grinding their ears and temples for a while, Chen Dongcheng and Zhuang Manting went to wash together.

Although nothing can be done, the relationship between the two is not only physical needs.

Luo Yuyan and Zhuang Shiyu, who usually sleep in bed, also appeared in the restaurant on time.

After breakfast, the two girls knew that Chen Dongcheng was going back to China today, and they looked reluctant.

"Okay, you two usually come to accompany Manting, so that I don't have to worry about it."

Chen Dongcheng rubbed the heads of the two girls in a funny way, kissed Zhuang Manting on the forehead again, and led them out of the villa.

Zhuang Manting touched her already bulging belly, showed a very gentle smile, and quietly watched the motorcade driving out of the villa.

……

After more than ten hours of flight, the plane arrived at Pudong Airport.

At the exit of the VIP channel, Chen Wenyuan, the CEO of Carrefour, has been waiting for more than half an hour.

"Chen Dong."

Chen Wenyuan quickly greeted him with a smile.

"Long time no see, you did a good job at Carrefour."

Chen Dongcheng smiled and shook hands with Chen Wenyuan.

He has a lot of respect for this general who he poached from Wal-Mart.

Chen Wenyuan did not live up to his trust. He took down the original foreign executive team without a fight, and promoted a group of local talents to the top.

Today's domestic Carrefour has already become a one-stop shop for Cao Cao Group.

Carrefour's French headquarters only holds less than 10% of the shares, and retains some shares symbolically.

For Carrefour headquarters, the Huaxia business has completely ceased to be their concern.

Even the board of directors, Carrefour is only a symbolic representation of a senior executive.

Since the acquisition, Carrefour's development thinking has obviously changed. It is no longer obsessed with opening stores in the first and second tiers, and has frequently entered the third and fourth tier cities.

The $[-] million that Chen Dongcheng gave at the beginning undoubtedly helped Chen Wenyuan a lot.

Over the past year, Carrefour has opened [-] stores across the country.

For first- and second-tier cities, large supermarkets are not uncommon.

But in third- and fourth-tier cities, the investment of tens of millions is not a small amount.

Whether it is the policy support of the local government or employee expenses, it is far more conducive to the development of Carrefour than first- and second-tier cities.

When Chen Wenyuan heard the big boss praising him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although he is highly regarded by Chen Dongcheng, he is also walking on thin ice.

Who made him this position is too critical, if he didn't work hard, I really don't know how many people would take his place.

Back to the Century Building, Carrefour's domestic offices are not large, only occupying one floor in the Century Building.

The supermarket business is mainly based on store operations, and the store manager is undoubtedly the most critical.

The previous batch of store managers who neglected their duties and even had a huge amount of corruption were dealt with one after another.

Chen Wenyuan once again resorted to the trump card of the mobile store manager.

Immediately, the internal corruption situation has greatly improved.

Many stores have also begun to renovate, and stores whose rents are about to expire will be withdrawn in advance.

Today's Carrefour is basically on the defensive in first- and second-tier cities, allowing other competitors to expand.

On the contrary, in third- and fourth-tier cities, they took the initiative to open stores very quickly.

Although it only occupies one floor, the sparrow is small and has all the internal organs.

In the conference room, executives from Carrefour headquarters gathered together.

The big boss appeared in person, and everyone looked a little surprised.

Chen Wenyuan sat on Chen Dongcheng's left hand and coughed lightly: "Chen Dong took the time out of his busy schedule, and I will report to Chen Dong first."

The projector began to broadcast the detailed data changes of Carrefour, such as sales and the number of stores, since Chen Wenyuan took office.

Chen Dongcheng watched it very seriously, and occasionally asked a few questions.

Overall, Carrefour's performance has improved, but not enough.

The layout of the first- and second-tier cities is conservative, and the expansion of the third- and fourth-tier cities has not been effective for the time being.

After all, in third- and fourth-tier cities, Carrefour generally owns its own properties, and many stores are also undergoing intensive renovations.

"Okay, now let's talk about Metro."

After Chen Dongcheng listened to Chen Wenyuan's report, he already knew what to do, and his expression became positive.

The other executives also had a hint of apprehension and desire on their faces.

Chen Wenyuan took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"Metro took the initiative to release rumors that they plan to seek partners or sell their business in China. Similar to Carrefour, they only hold a small share of equity."

"Metro has always advertised itself as a company specializing in B2B business, but our country is different from other regions."

"The consumer market is getting bigger and bigger, even accounting for 70% of the share, which is a bit embarrassing for Metro."

"So, Metro has also been struggling, relaxing the entry conditions for public customers for a period of time, and strictly controlling it for a period of time."

"I want to continue to adhere to the concept of 2B business, and I don't want to lose the 2C consumer market. Both sides are not thankful."

"What's more interesting, the Metro Group headquarters has a very interesting concept of the company's business."

"As long as any country's B2B orthodox business cannot be carried out smoothly, then this market is not a country that can be used as a strategic investment."

"They should exist as a financial investment, or in some other way, and stop investing."

"Obviously, our Huaxia market belongs to the latter. Now Metro is actively seeking partners. I think we should seize this opportunity."

After Chen Wenyuan finished speaking, he looked at Chen Dongcheng who was sitting in the main seat.

This is no small matter. It can completely change the pattern of the entire supermarket market. Chen Dongcheng must be the master.
