Chapter 98: Don’t Be Arrogant When You Win, Don’t Be Discouraged When You Lose
"Mr. Chen, do you have a cold?"
Shen Rou asked with some concern when she saw Chen Mo sneeze.
"It's nothing, maybe the air conditioning in the car was too cold."
Chen Mo waved his hand and walked into the company.
Back in the office,
Chen Mo directly opened his computer and entered the Tianlong Game.
He hadn't played this game for a few days, so he wanted to see what it had become.
Entering the game,
As soon as he appeared in the novice area, he saw two figures hurrying past him, heading straight for the wilderness.
"This…"
Chen Mo was a bit stunned; usually, he wouldn't encounter anyone in the novice area, but today, he had just entered the game and already met two people.
Had it changed that quickly?
His gaze turned to the public chat channel in the lower-left corner.
He saw that the previously deserted chat channel now had a continuous scroll of messages, making it impossible to read what was being said before the next message covered it up.
Curiously, he clicked open the public chat channel.
"Tianhuo Studio, buying Dragon Slaying Set, ten thousand per piece, fair to all."
"Max-level boss leading team for leveling, 30 per day."
"North City Rhino Group, captain leading team to farm in the wilderness 24/7 without rest, you can follow and AFK, equipment drops are randomly distributed, team fee 40 per day, two spots left."
"………."
Chen Mo looked at these lines of text, a black line forming on his forehead.
These bullet comments were nothing like the deserted state from before.
Closing the chat room,
He controlled his game character to the wilderness.
The wilderness scene was even livelier, with players scurrying everywhere, either farming in the wilderness or on their way to farm.
Seeing this scene,
Chen Mo completely believed the fact that this game was now profitable.
But thankfully,
These people were all farming equipment to sell for money, not truly wanting to play.
Once the equipment buyers finished their acquisitions, this game would pretty much return to its previous state of loss.
However, he also couldn't do any more operations.
Chen Mo thought to himself, then directly exited the game.
Looking at the Tianlong Game icon, he finally chose to uninstall it.
Why play any more games? If he kept playing, his 8 million might be gone!
"Mr. Chen, here's your water."
Shen Rou walked over with water, just in time to see Mr. Chen uninstalling the Tianlong Game.
Her heart couldn't help but be moved.
Before, she had occasionally seen Mr. Chen playing games, thinking he was just bored and wanted to relax.
But today, at Cangxue Games, she realized that Mr. Chen wasn't playing games, but rather trying to find a way to turn a losing game into a profitable one.
Mr. Chen succeeded.
However, Mr. Chen was not overjoyed or complacent; he simply uninstalled the game calmly.
Not arrogant in victory, not discouraged in defeat.
Just this point alone was something she was far from achieving.
It seemed she still needed to strengthen her learning in many aspects.
Chen Mo casually took the cup of water Shen Rou handed him and took a sip.
Huh!
"What did you make this time? It doesn't taste like coffee."
He looked up at Shen Rou, puzzled.
"Mr. Chen, I didn't make coffee; this is cold medicine, it can prevent colds."
Shen Rou quickly explained.
Mr. Chen had sneezed twice just now, and she was worried he might catch a cold, so she made a cup of cold medicine.
"Oh, thank you."
Chen Mo thanked her with a smile; although he didn't feel like he had a cold, this cold medicine only served as a preventative measure, so drinking a cup wouldn't do any harm.
Looking at the remaining few thousand in system funds, he finally relaxed.
Tianlong was a false alarm, and now only the business department was a bit tricky; these three new people in the business department had been taking orders more and more frequently recently.
It seemed he needed to think of a way to curb it.
Otherwise, every two or three days, they would take a small order of one hundred or two hundred thousand; individually, it didn't seem like much, but accumulated, it was a considerable sum.
But what method could he use? Forcibly preventing them from running businesses was definitely not an option, as it would be deemed a violation.
Chen Mo fell into deep thought.
………..
Industrial Park office building,
Inside the park manager's office,
Li Maode looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with a troubled expression.
"We agreed at the time that I would give you a discounted price if you rented for five years. Now you only want to rent for two years and don't want to rent anymore. What am I supposed to do? Such a large factory building, you at least have to wait for me to find a new tenant."
"Brother Li, you also know that it's not that I don't want to rent anymore, but you are aware of the factory's recent situation over the past two years. That nearly 1,000 square meter double-story factory building alone has an annual rent of 600,000."
"But now that factory is even struggling to make a profit. Even if I continue to rent it, I won't have the money to continue paying rent!"
The middle-aged man said with a mournful face. Back then, he was full of ambition, and to make the factory bigger and stronger, he directly rented a thousand-square-meter factory building, with two floors totaling nearly two thousand square meters.
However, he never expected that the economy had been sluggish for the past two years, causing the factory to not make any money at all. Coupled with such expensive rent, he simply couldn't afford it.
So, he reluctantly had no choice but to give up this factory building.
Li Maode looked at the middle-aged man's haggard appearance and sighed deeply.
Having been a park manager for so many years, he had seen too many such things.
Cases like this were still good; some bosses lost even their underwear.
"How about this, I'll charge you one more month's rent. If I find a new tenant within this month, I can refund your deposit in full."
"If I can't find a new tenant, I can only refund a portion of it."
This was all he could do; if it were according to the contract, the deposit would not be refundable.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you."
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
…………
In the afternoon,
Several large trucks slowly stopped at the workshop entrance, with various garment machinery neatly arranged in the cargo compartments.
"Brother Jiang, you direct them to move the machines into the workshop, and at the same time, pull out the old machines and arrange them outside."
"I've contacted a manufacturer that recycles old machines; they can probably sell for about 100,000 yuan, but I need to get Mr. Chen's approval."
Li Shen got out of the car and said to Jiang Cheng.
"Okay, I've got it here."
Jiang Cheng nodded, and at the same time, had already begun directing a forklift driver to carefully unload a machine.
………
Office,
Li Shen knocked and entered.
"Have all the equipment been purchased?"
Looking at Li Shen who had entered, Chen Mo asked.
Li Shen nodded and, at Mr. Chen's示意下, sat across from the desk.
"Yes, Mr. Chen, all the machines have been purchased, and of course, the floor scrubbers and network cables have also been arranged."
"However, there are two more things I need to report to you."
"What things?"
Chen Mo looked up at Li Shen.
"Oh, the first thing is about those old machines that were replaced."
