Upon hearing Hou Guozheng's words, Mr. Qi and Chen Xiaolong exchanged glances, and they had a clear understanding in their hearts.
"Mr. Hou, to be honest, the investment on our side is less than that of Jiang Hao's, and that's an indisputable fact."
Chen Xiaolong was neither servile nor overbearing and chose not to hide it. After all, such matters could be easily investigated, so why leave an impression of dishonesty?
A candid interaction might yield better results.
"Oh? If that's the case, then what are you using to compete with Jiang Hao? Surely you're not relying on the Song Family behind you? If I invest in Jiang Hao, I might stand to gain more."
Hou Guozheng raised his eyebrows, sizing up Chen Xiaolong with a hint of curiosity. This young man intrigued him.
Compared to Jiang Hao's name-dropping, Chen Xiaolong spoke more with facts.
Since he dared to approach Hou Guozheng, he must have come fully prepared.
