490: Chapter 464 Buying a Luxury Car 490: Chapter 464 Buying a Luxury Car The saleswoman smiled at Lin Xiaoxiang and said, “Today is the release of our Aston Martin One-77 global limited-edition supercar, right inside.
There are only seventy-seven models available worldwide.
If the three of you are interested, please follow .”
“Let’s go take a look.
A car like this is truly valuable,” Liu Hun told the two won.
The three followed the saleswoman inside, where the crowd started to grow denser.
At the center, a foreigner was presenting the outstanding performance and features of the One-77, with journalists on one side and custors on the other.
“The gentleman on the stage presenting right now is our Great Huaxia District President, Mr.
David Lee.
Since the One-77 is only sold in the Huaxia District, and there’s just one model, we have adopted an invitation-only strategy regardless of custor status.
That is to say, even if you’re not a mber and didn’t receive an invitation, but you happen to be here today, you also have the opportunity to purchase this unique One-77,” the saleswoman explained to the three of them.
Liu Hun had attended the Prada anniversary event before and clearly understood that these luxury goods have a fixed consur group, and there is no need for extensive advertising.
Even if a large crowd arrived, not everyone would be able to afford it.
“Is this One-77 up for auction?” Liu Hun asked the saleswoman.
The saleswoman shook her head with a smile and said, “It’s not up for auction; it has a fixed price of twelve million.
To get it, you need to not only be able to pay in full but also participate in a competition.”
“A competition?
What kind?” Shi Qing’er asked, suddenly perking up with no attention paid to the limited edition car’s price.
“Hey!
I’m talking to you!”
Just as Shi Qing’er was asking her question, a woman next to her suddenly shouted at the saleswoman very rudely.
The saleswoman turned around with a smile and asked, “May I help you, miss?”
The woman was wearing gold necklaces and jewelry, all glitz and glamour.
Although her facial features could indeed hold up the words “quite pretty,” the wealth of jewelry made her seem much older.
“Go get a chair and make a cup of coffee!” the woman demanded, head held high.
The saleswoman explained apologetically, “I’m sorry, miss, but our dealership doesn’t offer coffee today, and all the chairs are being used by dia reporters, so…”
“So what?!
You an you’re not providing it, right?
Why do those paparazzi get them and not ?!
Can’t you figure sothing out?
Are you dead or sothing?!
You believe I won’t complain to your manager?
What’s your na?”
The woman went on with her arrogant threats and moved to check the saleswoman’s na badge.
Fearful of a complaint, the saleswoman knew that her bonus would be forfeit regardless of the situation and quickly covered her badge as she stepped backward.
Seeing the saleswoman’s reaction, the arrogant woman beca even more aggressive, attempting to grab at her, while the saleswoman kept her badge covered and continuously backed away.
“Hey!
Aren’t you being too much?
She’s already explained the situation clearly to you!
She told you the reason, why are you still acting like this?” Shi Qing’er imdiately stepped forward to block the aggressive woman.
“You can go now, there’s nothing to do with you here,” Liu Hun whispered to the saleswoman.
The saleswoman gratefully glanced at Liu Hun and hurriedly left.
“You little bitch!
Mind your own business!
Do you believe I’ll slap you?” The woman got even more upset seeing the saleswoman escape and another woman, previously unaccounted for, popping up right in front of her.
“Co on then!
Co on!
Do it if you dare!” Shi Qing’er taunted, wiggling her hips provocatively at the woman.
“You slut, looking to get hit!” Furious, the woman swung her hand to slap Shi Qing’er across the face.
“Smack!”
Shi Qing’er, hearing the sound, was genuinely startled and flinched, touching her face but not feeling any pain.
It was then that she realized Liu Hun had intercepted the woman’s slap.
“Public place, don’t make a scene here, or you’ll embarrass yourself!” Liu Hun warned the woman.
After speaking, he pushed her out of the way.
The woman stumbled several steps back before finally stabilizing in her high heels, red-faced and neck bulging as she pointed at the three and yelled, “A bunch of hooligans!
Shaless things!
Poor riffraff!
You rotten man, how dare you hit a woman!”
“What’s going on?!
What happened?”
As the woman cursed loudly, a concerned voice ca from behind her.
Turning around, her tone imdiately dropped by eight notches, soft and saccharine as she tugged at the man’s arm, “He Yinghui, soone is bullying !
They’re so an!
And they even got physical!”
“Qianqian my darling, who dared to touch you, I’ll skin them alive!” the man consoled Guo iqian tenderly.
She was his new toy, the woman he planned to promote to the top anchor position.
“I should have known it was you!” Liu Hun sneered coldly, eyeing the man in the racing suit in front of him, none other than the Vice President of Jinxin dia and Gao Yelan’s fiancé—He Yinghui!
“Heh!” He Yinghui, too, hadn’t expected the person before him to be his arch-nesis, Liu Hun, who always caused him trouble, “Fancy eting you here!”
“He Yinghui, do you know them?” Guo iqian asked.
Liu Hun looked at this scene and said to He Yinghui, “Vice President He, you already have a fiancee, yet you’re still out here picking up worn-out shoes.
It probably wouldn’t be too good if Gao Yelan found out.”
He Yinghui’s face imdiately darkened, he moved a bit away from Guo iqian, pointed at Liu Hun, and said, “Liu Hun!
Don’t use that disgusting woman to pressure !
Once I marry her and see how she gets arrogant then!
And…
I don’t want to see your face!
Get lost right now!”
“Hey, hey, hey!
Did you eat sh*t for breakfast and forget to rinse your mouth?
Is this your family’s store?
On what grounds are you telling us to leave?!” Shi Qing’er retorted uncomfortably to He Yinghui.
“Sharp-tongued little wench, you just rely on having a bit of good looks, hanging onto n to sell your charms!” Guo iqian said sourly, knowing she was not as beautiful as Shi Qing’er.
“Hey!
Isn’t that Manager Liu and Shi Qing’er?
Everyone hurry and take a look!”
Suddenly a reporter recognized the two people.
With his shouting, many reporters with their caras quickly gathered around.
“Manager Liu!
Are you also here to attend the release conference of the Aston Martin One-77?
Do you fancy this One-77?” a reporter asked.
Liu Hun replied to the reporter, “Today I’m just a custor, the One-77 is indeed outstanding, and I do fancy it…”
“Hahaha…
But he can’t afford it!” He Yinghui suddenly burst out laughing.
“Hey!
Isn’t this Vice President He from Jinxin dia?
President He, why would you say that?
Doesn’t Jinxin dia have a good cooperative relationship with Imperial City Entertainnt?
Do you have so personal grudge?” The reporter keenly sensed the anger in He Yinghui’s words and asked.
“Business is business, personal is personal.
And…” He Yinghui said disparagingly, looking Liu Hun up and down, “Manager Liu, with that fra of yours, you’re better off mingling in the female celebrity circle.
If you drive a One-77, you’d have to be careful not to fall apart!
He’s just here to make up the numbers today, he’s got plenty of ti, feel free to interview him for so juicy gossip.
I have to race and can’t accompany you!”
“Wench!
Being sharp-tongued can only get you n!” After saying this, Guo iqian flipped her hair and wanted to leave with He Yinghui.
“Wait up!”
He Yinghui, about to leave, was stopped by Liu Hun calling out to him.
He Yinghui slowly turned his head and looked at Liu Hun skeptically, asking, “What?
You can’t possibly be thinking of entering the race too?”
Liu Hun sneered and said, “I’ll bet with you!”
“Oh wow!
You’re really getting into this, Liu Hun!
Let give you so advice—with so many dia reporters here, it’d be embarrassing enough if you chickened out, but forcing yourself into the lilight could cost you your life!” He Yinghui continued to mock Liu Hun sarcastically.
“Scared, are you?!” Liu Hun countered.
“Hahaha…” He Yinghui laughed wildly on the spot, saying, “Listen!
Listen!
What nonsense is he spouting?!
I’m scared?!
Go ask around, I, He Yinghui the Chaser, have a na in the racing circuits!”
“Pfft!
How tacky!
Couldn’t you have picked a classier nickna!” Shi Qing’er couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“So, are you betting or not?” Liu Hun asked He Yinghui.
He Yinghui sneered and said, “I’ll tell you, Liu Hun, this race is a ten-lap track race, it’s about the best lap tis, and that’s my specialty!
If you beat , I’ll give you twelve million!
The exact price of a One-77!
And if you lose?”
“I’ll also give you twelve million!” Liu Hun imdiately replied to He Yinghui.
Thinking he’d easily picked up a luxury car today, He Yinghui said arrogantly, then walked away head held high with Guo iqian.
“Mr.
Liu, hello, I’ve long heard of your na!
I’m David Lee, President of Prodrive, Great Huaxia District!” The tall David Lee with white hair extended his hand to Liu Hun.
“Hello, Mr.
David Lee.” Liu Hun shook hands with David Lee politely.
“Mr.
Liu, are you going to participate in our race?” David Lee asked Liu Hun courteously.
“Of course!” Liu Hun replied succinctly.
David Lee laughed heartily and said, “It truly is an honor for us!” He knew about Liu Hun’s reputation; in the Huaxia Entertainnt Industry, Liu Hun’s na was as good as any celebrity’s.
If Liu Hun participated, regardless of the outco, it would be a great advertisent.
“Welco!
We’re more than just delighted!” David Lee said with a smile, imdiately signaling for the saleswoman who had been helping Liu Hun to take him to prepare.
Liu Hun followed the saleswoman to the reception room, filled out so registration forms, and then the saleswoman asked him, “Manager Liu, did you drive here?”
Liu Hun nodded and said, “Yes, an Audi A6.”
The saleswoman imdiately said, “Manager Liu, you’d better pick out a car from our showroom.”
“Why?” Liu Hun, of course, knew his Audi wouldn’t perform as well as these race cars, but he wanted to know more of the ins and outs.
Sure enough, the saleswoman said to Liu Hun, “Manager Liu, it’s primarily an issue of car performance!
Though Audis are nice, they just can’t compare to the cars those rich second-generation guys drive.
They already love chasing thrills, speeding, practically half-professional racers each one of them.
If your car isn’t up to it, your chances of winning are slim!
Besides, if you don’t drive an Aston Martin, you must cover the logo on your car.”
