The city's number one tycoon - Chapter 496
This dinner party for the wealthy was attended by many well-known figures in China.
For example, the CEOs of Tencent, Taobao, and other large corporations have all come here. However, they did not rush to enter the hotel after arriving.
Because they are all big shots.
This dinner for the wealthy invited a total of one hundred bigwigs.
To show respect for each other, the event stipulated that all the bigwigs must arrive before they could enter the Pearl Hotel together.
"How many more are we missing?" one of the bosses asked the organizer of the dinner.
"Just one more!" the manager of the Pearl Hotel replied respectfully.
"It's already 7:05. Which boss is so ignorant of the rules?" The speaker was the CEO of Taobao, who is now widely recognized as the richest man in China. He is a boss with considerable influence.
"Boss, we're still missing the owner of Calorie Group," the manager replied earnestly, looking at the list in his hand.
"Calories Group?" The CEO of Taobao scoffed. "Does such a small company want to attend our dinner party? I seem to remember saying before that the people invited to this dinner party must have a net worth of at least 10 billion. Is this CEO of Calories worth 10 billion?"
"Boss, that's enough. Calorie Group is now involved in various fields, especially in the entertainment industry such as film and television, where it has made significant achievements," the manager said with a wry smile. Calorie Group was a household name in Jiangnan City, but the Taobao boss described it as a small company.
"Hmph! People who have no sense of time don't deserve to attend our dinner!" The CEO of Taobao sneered, then looked at the other CEOs and said, "Alright! We are all wealthy and influential people. Usually, others wait for us, but we can't wait for others! Let's go in first! As for Calorie Group, I don't think the company will achieve much with a boss who doesn't understand the rules like this!"
When he said that, the other executives all nodded in agreement.
After all, he was the richest man in China last year, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will continue to be the richest man in China this year after this dinner.
"Put-put-put-put-put!"
Just then, a piercing propeller noise came from the sky. Everyone looked up and saw a black helicopter slowly slowing down and preparing to land.
"What's going on? Manager Zhang, this is a dinner for the wealthy. Didn't we agree that this area is off-limits? Why is a helicopter flying over here?" The CEO of Taobao asked the manager of Mingzhu Hotel reproachfully.
"I'm sorry, boss... I don't know what happened either. The airport at Mingzhu Hotel is in the building next door. You can't park planes here. Maybe that boss doesn't know the rules here." The manager of Mingzhu Hotel said awkwardly, because he saw that the helicopter was trying to land directly here.
In front of the lobby on the first floor of the Pearl Hotel is a wide road lined with luxury cars belonging to various tycoons. While cars are allowed to park here, it is clearly inappropriate to park a helicopter here.
Whoosh!
Just as these people were looking up at the helicopter in the sky, two extended sedans rushed towards the entrance of the Pearl Hotel. Everyone looked up and saw two Rolls-Royces covered with US dollars heading towards them.
These two Rolls-Royces with US dollar bills on them were the ones that Ma Yunteng had instructed Zhao Peng to have driven over.
After the two Rolls-Royces arrived at the scene, they suddenly slowed down, and once they came to a complete stop, the expressions on the faces of these bigwigs instantly turned grim.
They were really just there to show off at this dinner party for the wealthy, but someone actually stuck banknotes all over the Rolls-Royce. And they even saw the word "calories" on the Rolls-Royce's window.
And it's even gold-plated.
Ma Yunteng's late arrival had already displeased some bigwigs, but no one expected him to be so flamboyant, covering his Rolls-Royce with US dollars!
This is simply flaunting wealth!
"That's interesting. I'd really like to meet this CEO of Calories," one of the bosses exclaimed.
"Heh, what's so great about a nouveau riche? How dare he show off in front of us real big shots? How laughable."
"He's just showing off his limited skills in front of an expert!" (The following appears to be unrelated and possibly spam: "Urban Number One Tycoon")

"I've seen plenty of these small business owners. They do this just to get our attention. Once we notice them, they'll try to curry favor and ask to cooperate with us. Don't be surprised, let's all go inside," the Taobao boss said disdainfully, while the other bosses also wore mocking expressions.
To be honest, it's just a matter of deliberately sticking a layer of US dollars on a Rolls-Royce. It's nothing special; any one of these big shots could do something like that.
"I'll go greet him!" Unlike the others, the CEO of Tencent smiled mysteriously and walked directly towards the two Rolls-Royces.
"Brother, what are you doing? You're the CEO of Tencent, second only to me in status. Wouldn't it be beneath you to go and greet him?" The CEO of Taobao said with displeasure. Among the big shots here today, he and the CEO of Tencent were the most prestigious, yet the CEO of Tencent was actually going to take the initiative to greet this CEO of Calories.
The CEO of Tencent smiled slightly at him and ignored him. How could he know that Calorie Group had secretly cooperated with Tencent Group many times, and that the CEO of Tencent himself had a very high opinion of Ma Yunteng?
However, he had never met Ma Yunteng before; they had only communicated briefly over the phone.
He was very much looking forward to meeting Ma Yunteng soon.
Here, Ma Yunteng piloted the helicopter slowly down to this place, but the helicopter did not land on the ground. Instead, the helicopter's two feet landed on two Rolls-Royces covered with US dollar bills.
"Bang!"
A loud crash was heard, and the hood of the Rolls-Royce collapsed, while the driver inside quickly escaped.
Ma Yunteng landed the helicopter directly on top of the two Rolls-Royces.
"Holy crap! That's awesome!" one of the big shots couldn't help but exclaim.
"Wow, this is treating a Rolls-Royce like it's nothing! This car... seems to be even more expensive than a Rolls-Royce Phantom!" another person exclaimed.
"I've been a prominent figure in the business world for decades, and this is truly the first time I've seen someone so high-profile!"
"Who exactly is this calorie CEO? He's absolutely amazing!"
"This isn't just showing off your limited skills in front of an expert; it's practically giving us a taste of our own medicine!"
Ma Yunteng's absurd actions sparked heated discussions among the crowd. It was simply outrageous! A Rolls-Royce worth tens of millions was being trampled into trash like that? Although these were all big shots, they had never seen such extravagant and wasteful spending before!
In fact, Ma Yunteng did this for a very simple purpose: to flaunt his wealth.
