Chapter 783: 778 Brother Zhu Zi’s Shock

Facing such a situation, Gu Zhen also knew clearly that it meant he would soon have to lower his prices.

Because in these circumstances, the only way to maintain some market presence was to reduce prices.

Fortunately, the costs he incurred had all been recouped.

While Gu Zhen might not dare to guarantee other things, there was at least one thing he could be certain about.

That was the fact that there was nearly a million dollars in the cash flow within the internet cafe.

This was money that Gu Zhen had never withdrawn and had simply been kept in the internet cafe.

When he was at the internet cafe, many people did not recognize who Gu Zhen was.

He was not as famous inside the internet cafe as he was outside.

And at this time, the current internet saw the emergence of more online games, which, due to this development, led to an increasing number of people starting to pay attention to online gaming.

After arriving at the internet cafe, Gu Zhen began to review the current pricing there.

Based on the original prices, he could only decrease them slightly, having now officially changed to ten yuan per hour.

He was very generous at this point, directly dropping the price.

Because he was quite clear in his mind that even after lowering the price, he would still turn a profit.

And the service in his internet cafe would not be compromised; it was rather well-known locally.

Basically, everyone was aware of this.

Even if another internet cafe were to suddenly pop up along the line, most people might try it out, but in the end, they would still come to his place.

This confidence stemmed from Gu Zhen being one of the first to enter the internet cafe market.

And this confidence was not something they could simply possess.

So at this moment, Gu Zhen’s thoughts were quite straightforward.

After making a slight adjustment to the prices at the internet cafe, Gu Zhen then went to visit the new clothing company.

This clothing company was the new venture he planned to start with Ji Pianran.

Thus, it was important for him to come and take a look at this time.

Gu Zhen was very committed to this matter and had always considered it a top priority.

The new clothing company was still without any staff, except for him and a bunch of load-bearing walls.

Gu Zhen took a careful look around the company, mainly observing the current layout.

From what he could see of the company’s current layout, he was quite satisfied.

Now, if he could just hire the staff, his company would be able to swiftly enter normal operations.

From design to production, he could handle all of the clothing-related tasks on his own.

However, Ji Pianran seemed to have been too busy recently, so he hadn’t mentioned this matter to her.

The main issue was the Tong Family individual from Yancheng.

There was no need to elaborate on how annoying that bunch was.

Before he could resolve this issue, Gu Zhen believed Ji Pianran would not take much interest in this matter, at least not in the short term.

Thus, instead of wasting time on this aspect, Gu Zhen felt it would be better to do something more meaningful.

At that time, many thoughts went through Gu Zhen’s mind.

It was nearly evening, and Gu Zhen returned home.

After arriving home, he planned to make dinner as usual.

But then his phone started to ring.

Gu Zhen picked up the call and heard Brother Zhu Zi’s voice from the other end.

Brother Zhu Zi on the other end of the phone seemed somewhat surprised at this time.

"Little Brother Gu, I just received news. Did you collaborate with Maotai Liquor?"

On the other end of the phone, he seemed almost unable to believe it.

What Gu Zhen hadn’t expected was that this guy was so well-informed, he even knew about this matter already.

At that time, Ping Gui did not conceal anything; he felt there was no need to hide anything regarding this matter. Speaking openly and honestly was obviously the best way.

"Yes, for now, we have reached a cooperative agreement, and I expect the collaboration will go smoothly. If nothing unexpected happens, this should be a long-term partnership," Gu Zhen said directly on the other end.

"Little Brother Gu, how on earth did you pull this off? This is a bit too dreamlike.

How did you manage to get in touch with Maotai Liquor? It’s simply unbelievable..."

At this time, he looked at Gu Zhen with utter disbelief.

He had never imagined that Gu Zhen could actually achieve this.

And achieving this was genuinely not easy; one could only wonder what kind of price he had paid.

Even more crucially, Brother Zhu Zi knew Gu Zhen’s network very well.

From what he knew of Gu Zhen’s connections, he didn’t think Gu Zhen should be able to know such a figure.

Yet now, Gu Zhen seemed to have inexplicably managed to collaborate with them.

It sounded almost like a joke.

In such a situation, he didn’t know how to assess Gu Zhen.

Gu Zhen had brought him far more than just a simple surprise.

"It was just a fortunate set of circumstances that led to the acquaintance, nothing special," Gu Zhen casually mentioned without elaborating much.

It seemed he had no intention of explaining anyway.

It’s not that hard to understand why there was no need for Gu Zhen to explain this matter.

On the contrary, Gu Zhen felt that sometimes he should keep some cards close to his chest.

Having something that nobody else knows about could serve as his exclusive trump card.

He believed that from now on, many people would pay much more attention to him.

That was precisely the goal Gu Zhen wanted to achieve.

"Little Brother Gu, I’ve never admired anyone as much as I do now seeing what you’ve accomplished," he said to Gu Zhen at that time, feeling as if Gu Zhen had brought him a sort of unexpected delight.

So how could he possibly not be excited at this moment?

However, it was clear that he hadn’t considered as much as Gu Zhen had.

What Gu Zhen was considering was completely different from his thoughts.

For Gu Zhen, everything he now had truly came with difficulties.

"Thank you for your concern, Brother. For so long, I truly owe you thanks for your support. Without it, I might not have achieved what I have today," Gu Zhen spoke with genuine politeness in his tone.

He was indeed very grateful to Brother Zhu Zi.

After all, Brother Zhu Zi had helped him out more than just a few times.

One could say that without his help on several occasions before, he might not have grown to where he is now.

Gu Zhen always remembered these favors in his heart, although he rarely spoke of them. Today, taking the opportunity, he expressed his true feelings.
