Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group Chapter 1489 1463: Competing for Talent

At first, hearing no sound from the other end of the phone, Sun Bolin thought that Ye Chen had hung up.

He was thinking about how to call the other party again.

Now knowing that Ye Chen agreed to meet, his previously tense mood relaxed.

"Alright, no problem, then we'll meet in a bit." Sun Bolin said with an expression of excitement and exhilaration.

He instructed the driver to head towards the teahouse according to the address sent by Ye Chen.

Sun Bolin was already impatient to meet Ye Chen.

Just after hanging up the phone, Ye Chen's phone rang again.

Glancing at it, it was yet another unfamiliar number.

After connecting the call, the other party directly shouted: "Master Ye, this is Zhao Ming."

Ye Chen was startled by this title, the other party actually called him Master.

"Are you looking for the wrong person?" Ye Chen spoke.

"No, absolutely not, we just met at the banquet." Zhao Ming explained.

From this person's words, Ye Chen knew that he should have been present at tonight's gathering.

It's just that Ye Chen was preoccupied with eating from the moment he arrived, not caring at all about who was in the banquet hall.

"Oh, do you need something from me?" Ye Chen asked casually.

"Here's the thing, I would like to visit Master Ye, would that be convenient?" Zhao Ming said straightforwardly.

"It's truly inconvenient." Ye Chen replied bluntly.

Zhao Ming did not expect Ye Chen to speak so directly, he was a bit embarrassed.

Although not as high in the literary world as Elder Sun, people in the literary world also respect him greatly.

Just as Zhao Ming was about to speak, Ye Chen said: "It's inconvenient at home, but takeout is possible, let's meet at the teahouse."

Hearing Ye Chen's words, Zhao Ming was also very happy, and quickly said: "Alright, alright, we'll see each other shortly."

Actually, he could have easily refused Zhao Ming, but he arranged for the two people to meet at the teahouse to prevent them from bothering him for too long.

Following the address given by Ye Chen, a car stopped in front of the teahouse, and Sun Bolin and Professor Zhang got out of the car.

"Old Zhang, let me do the talking later, we must be cautious in our attitude." Sun Bolin said.

Just then, another car stopped beside them.

"Elder Sun, I didn't expect you to be in the mood for tea at this late hour." Upon seeing Sun Bolin, Zhang Ming was also surprised and quickly greeted the other.

Sun Bolin was first stunned, turned back, as if he remembered something, and asked.

"Zhang Ming, are you also here for tea?"

"Elder Sun, I'm not just here for tea, but Master Ye invited me to meet here." Zhang Ming said proudly.

"What, why are you looking for Master Ye?" Sun Bolin paused at the words.

He felt a bad premonition.

"Of course, for the same purpose as yours." Zhang Ming said proudly.

Sun Bolin was also a bit angry upon hearing this, the other party's words implied they wanted to poach his talent.

He knew that Zhang Ming was also invited to the banquet earlier, and naturally Ye Chen's performance was seen by him.

But what Elder Sun did not expect was that this guy also called Ye Chen and came to this teahouse.

"Zhang Ming, what you're doing isn't quite fair, clearly I was the first to notice this Ye Chen." Sun Bolin said with a straight face.

Zhang Ming dismissed this and said: "Elder Sun, it's not right to say that, this kind of thing isn't about who comes first. After all, everyone cherishes talent, and not to mention, at the banquet just now, your literary society was very disrespectful to Ye Chen. I really didn't think Elder Sun valued Ye Chen so much, but I do see his worth."

Zhang Ming's words were very clear; the literary society simply looked down on Ye Chen, and not only that, they even offended him publicly. Now they want to make amends, how is that possible?

Elder Sun also felt a bit guilty hearing this, knowing that at the banquet, not only Zhou Tao, even his own attitude towards Ye Chen was not good.

But the matter has occurred, nothing can change it now.

He just wanted to personally explain the misunderstanding to Ye Chen and then invite Ye Chen to join the literary society.

"Zhang Ming, talking here is useless, what matters is Master Ye's thoughts." After saying this, Elder Sun headed inside the teahouse.

Zhang Ming did not hesitate and quickly followed.

As soon as the two of them entered, they saw Ye Chen sitting there.

Initially, Ye Chen wanted to let the two wait for a while, but then he felt it would be impolite.

The two who had just entered immediately recognized Ye Chen sitting there and walked towards him.

"You are?" Ye Chen asked the two elderly gentlemen approaching.

"Master Ye, I'm Sun Bolin."

"Master Ye, I'm Zhang Ming."

Sun Bolin and Zhang Ming introduced themselves respectively.

"Oh, please have a seat." Ye Chen nodded.

The two quickly sat down.

Ye Chen didn't want to waste too much time with the two of them, and directly asked: "What exactly do you want from me?"

Seeing the two people in front of him, Ye Chen couldn't help but twitch his lips, he didn't expect them to come so quickly.

"Master Ye, it's like this..."

Ye Chen directly interrupted Elder Sun: "Don't keep calling me Master, I'm not used to it. Just call me Ye Chen."

Elder Sun felt calling him Ye Chen was a bit impolite and quickly said: "Mr. Ye, I'll be frank, the purpose of this visit is to invite you to join the Modu Literary Society."

Hearing this, Ye Chen frowned.

After hearing Elder Sun's intention, Zhang Ming also hurriedly spoke: "Master Ye, oh no Mr. Ye, I also want to invite you to join the Modu Calligraphy Association."

This time he finally understood, both of them wanted to invite him to join their respective associations, one a literary society and the other a calligraphy association.

Ye Chen could understand Sun Bolin's invitation, after all, the poem he wrote stunned the crowd and won Sun Bolin's admiration.

Being attracted by his talent was no problem.

But Zhang Ming's invitation puzzled him, the other party was from the Calligraphy Association.

The words he just wrote were nothing special, without any traces of famous calligraphers, yet the other party still invited him.

This really left Ye Chen a little baffled.

He did want to hear how Zhang Ming would explain it.

Sure enough, Zhang Ming seemed to read Ye Chen's mind and began to explain the doubts in Ye Chen's heart.

Ye Chen also admired this man in front of him a lot, the way he spoke was truly pleasing to hear.
