Chapter 149: I Believe In You, Go Ahead Boldly

Chen Mo frowned when he heard Pang Tao's words. When they had dinner a couple of days ago, Pang Tao had been so firm, so why did he suddenly change his mind today?

"Could you tell me the reason?"

"Manager Chen, it's like this. I've submitted my Corner Pet Park proposal to several investment firms, and they've all rejected it. Clearly, my Corner Pet Park proposal isn't highly regarded."

"So, I thought about it carefully. Manager Chen, it isn't easy for you to make money, so you'd better not invest. The risk is too high."

Pang Tao said with a serious expression. After he sobered up, Xu Zhengming had told him a lot about these things.

He also realized his own problem. Manager Chen was a great philanthropist; he couldn't let him take such a big risk to invest in his project.

Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Pang Tao's words.

He had thought this project had been snatched up by someone else, but on second thought, who would want to snatch up this money-losing project?

Since that was the case, things would be easy to handle. He thought for a moment and then looked up at Pang Tao.

"I am very happy that you have this thought. However, you must know that any project carries risks, so you don't need to worry about me losing money by investing in your project."

"But Manager Chen…"

Seeing Pang Tao about to speak, Chen Mo immediately raised his hand to stop him.

"Let me ask you a few questions first before you make a decision."

"First, do you want to help more stray cats and dogs?"

"Yes!"

Pang Tao answered without hesitation.

"Then, can this Corner Pet Park project help more stray cats and dogs?"

"Yes."

Pang Tao nodded. His original intention for creating this Corner Pet Park project was to help more stray cats and dogs.

"Then do you have confidence in your project?"

"Manager Chen, I…"

Pang Tao looked hesitant.

Seeing this, Chen Mo helplessly rubbed his forehead. This guy wasn't playing by the rules; shouldn't he have just answered "yes"?

After all that, he didn't even have confidence in his own project.

However, isn't it better the less confident he was? Doesn't that just prove even more that this project is unreliable?

He was determined to invest in this project.

"You don't need to say anything more. I know what you mean. Confidence isn't important; as long as you put your heart into it, that's all that matters."

"Let me ask you, if this project is handed over to you, will you put your heart into it?"

"Manager Chen, I will definitely put my heart into it."

Pang Tao raised his arm, making a gesture of taking an oath.

"That's all there is to it. If you put your heart into it, how could it not be successful?"

"Have you ever heard the saying, 'Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets their mind to it'?"

"I haven't."

Chen Mo's expression froze, and he hurriedly changed his tune.

"Well, whether you've heard of it or not isn't important; you just need to understand the meaning. As long as you put your heart into this project, it will definitely succeed."

"So, bring your project proposal over, and let's hurry up and finalize the investment."

Pang Tao subconsciously handed the project proposal to Chen Mo, only realizing what he had done afterward.

"Manager Chen, I'm a bit worried that this project will lose money. How about…"

"I'm not worried, so what are you worried about? I believe in you; go ahead and do it boldly. Don't you hope that the Corner Pet Park will be even larger than Disney, so that all stray cats and dogs can have a home of their own?"

Chen Mo suddenly felt mentally exhausted. He just wanted to invest in a money-losing project; why was it so difficult?

Hearing Manager Chen's question, Pang Tao fell silent. Manager Chen's last sentence had struck his weak spot directly.

If he could really develop the Corner Pet Park to the scale of Disney, he truly wouldn't have to worry about not having a place to house stray cats and dogs anymore!

After thinking for a moment, he finally made his decision.

"Manager Chen, I will definitely develop this project well."

For Manager Chen's trust, and for a home for those stray cats and dogs, he would definitely do his utmost to make this project a success.

"Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets their mind to it."

"Manager Chen, I will remember those words."

"That's the spirit."

Seeing Pang Tao agree, Chen Mo smiled from the bottom of his heart.

He had finally managed to trick his way into this money-losing project.

After a while, Tang Qiu also arrived at the office.

With Attorney Tang there to help, there was no need to worry about the procedures required for the investment.

The most critical part was the investment amount.

Chen Mo looked at Pang Tao and asked.

"How much capital is appropriate for the initial investment in this Corner Pet Park?"

Pang Tao was stunned; he hadn't considered this aspect at all.

After thinking for a moment, he finally held up one palm and spoke slowly.

"Manager Chen, how about 500,000?"

Chen Mo looked at the palm Pang Tao held up. 500,000 wasn't even enough to fill the gaps in the system's teeth.

"Add a zero to the end. I'll invest 5 million for now. Of course, this is just the initial investment. Go ahead and develop the Corner Pet Park boldly; if you run short on funds, I will continue to add to the investment."

Pang Tao was speechless for a moment; he hadn't expected Manager Chen to invest 5 million just like that.

He had never seen that much money all at once in his entire life.

"Alright, it's settled then. Attorney Tang, I'll leave the rest to you."

Chen Mo finalized the matter and turned his gaze to Tang Qiu.

Tang Qiu nodded slightly and took out the prepared contract.

After a series of signatures, Chen Mo's fourth business venture had finally appeared: Corner Pet Park.

Chen Mo thought the word "Corner" was good, so he didn't change it.

"Corner" implied being remote and ignored by everyone.

Since it was a park, it would surely rely on ticket sales for profit. If it was ignored by everyone, that meant no one would buy tickets.

If no one bought tickets, that meant it wouldn't make any money.

What a wonderful implication!

Of course, Corner Pet Park hadn't been officially established yet; they still needed to go to the relevant departments to process the paperwork.

But he didn't need to worry about that.

He was now the boss of four companies; if he had to handle everything personally, he would never be able to keep up.

All he could do now was ensure that the four companies didn't veer off course in their development.

As for what that direction was, it was, of course, losing money.

"Manager Chen, I'll head back now."

Pang Tao picked up the newly signed contract and slowly stood up.

"Good. Go back and do it boldly; I believe in you."

Chen Mo stood up and patted Pang Tao on the shoulder with a smile.

"Manager Chen, I will work hard."

Pang Tao nodded earnestly, then suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, Manager Chen, I brought the dog you wanted today. Where do you think would be a suitable place to put it?"

They had been discussing the project just now, and he had almost forgotten about the dog.

Chen Mo heard this and checked the time; it was already past 11 o'clock.

It was just about time for lunch. Once the dog arrived, he could finally cancel the lunch box service.
