Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 285 Did you find a sugar daddy?

They borrowed another 10 billion.

Yan Li felt that being with Lin Lang was not like working steadily at all, but more like a complete adventure.

Lin Lang only needs a flash of inspiration to bring Tianjin Capital to a state of extremes, where one thought can lead to heaven or hell.

If this venture succeeds, Tianjin Capital will undoubtedly possess a foundation unmatched by any other public fund in China, with its own capital reserves approaching those of industrial companies.

With sufficient equity capital, Tianjin Capital will not have any problems no matter what happens. No matter how big the crisis, Tianjin Capital can weather it.

If it fails, you may have to restart.

After all, with such a large pullback, there's a high probability of a run on the fund by investors. In addition, Tianjin Capital has to bail out the borrowed money, which will exacerbate the run effect, and the accumulated credit may be wiped out within a few days.

Just like investing in stocks, if you invest steadily, even if you lose money, you won't go bankrupt, given how much you've earned so far.

But once leverage is applied, things change.

Lin Lang's actions are equivalent to giving Tianjin Capital a leverage ratio of four times.

After this matter was discussed, the matter was considered settled.

Tianjin Capital is currently unable to further increase its leverage.

After Luo Ze and Guan Sheng left, Yan Li said, "Are you still not well-rested?"

"It's alright, I'm definitely getting enough sleep, but the quality isn't great, since my biological clock has been a bit off lately."

In fact, Lin Lang still feels full of energy.

Being young is great; even with two shifts, there's not much pressure.

Unlike after turning thirty, when after several years of hard work I felt completely drained and had no desire to do anything after get off work every day.

The suffocating, lifeless smell emanating from him could be detected from a great distance.

Leveraging Tianjin Capital today was a last resort, as Tianjin Capital is still weak and Guan Sheng has no way to solve the problem under the siege of those public funds.

Because Guan Sheng has no money!

Luo Ze is rich; this 10 billion is not his limit, but only the limit of Tianjin Capital.

"Would you like to come to my house for dinner tonight?"

"Didn't we agree on tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is fine too, I just wanted to see if you're free tonight, so you can come to my place and rest for a couple more days."

"I have some things to do tonight, so I'll go over tomorrow at noon and have a couple of meals at your place."

"okay."

Not long after, Lin Lang left.

Yan Li definitely can't leave, since the process for this 10 billion yuan still needs to be completed. Even though the specific details have been agreed upon, there are still many things to do.

……

After leaving Tianjin Capital, Guan Sheng stopped Luo Ze and said, "You'd better help keep this 10 billion yuan a secret."

"Keep it a secret? How can I keep it a secret? There are so many people involved in this kind of thing."

"Anyway, you have to figure it out yourself. Right now, other public funds are joining forces to suppress Tianjin Capital. If you leak it out and let them know Tianjin Capital's trump card, it will have a huge impact on your funds."

Luo Ze: "???? Wait, why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Ha, you heard they'd give you an 8% coupon rate, and your eyes lit up? Besides, wasn't it you who actively encouraged this? Knowing Tianjin Capital has money, you're like a fly drawn to a fish's breath? Do you really think benefits are so easy to come by? Since you've taken the 8% coupon rate, if you don't want any problems, you'd better protect Tianjin Capital. Otherwise, if something happens to Tianjin Capital, even with the most stringent financial oversight measures, other problems might still arise..."

Luo Ze: "..."

Why do I feel like I'm not making any money?
This matter can't be kept secret anytime soon; we can only try some secrecy measures to a certain extent, but whether they will be effective is hard to say.

He looked at Guan Sheng and said, "Back in the meeting room earlier, weren't you deliberately putting on airs? On the surface, you kept disagreeing, but actually you were secretly delighted to see me fall into the trap, weren't you?"

"Fall into a pit? If this is a pit, is there any flat road in the world? Eight percent coupon rate, and Tianjin Capital still has nearly six billion yuan in its own funds. Dude, have you ever encountered such a good thing in your life?"

"But I always felt something was off... like I'd been tricked..."

When Luo Ze heard that there were still a lot of troubles ahead, he suddenly felt that the 8% coupon rate wasn't so appealing anymore.

Guan Sheng concluded by saying, "Anyway, if Tianjin Capital survives this ordeal, it will benefit us all. But when real problems arise, don't think you can escape unscathed."

"That depends on what happens. I'm leaving..."

Today, I was supposed to be overseeing the 5 billion yuan loan I previously gave to Tianjin Capital, but... another 10 billion yuan was lost.

The bad news is that this 15 billion is at considerable risk.

The good news is, the returns will be even greater!

A billion yuan in coupon payments a year.

Within the broader context of the medical insurance system, one billion yuan is nothing, but for him personally, it is extraordinary.

If he handles this deal well enough, he will be able to manage more and more funds in the future.

After returning, he arranged for someone to prepare a report on the whole matter, and at the same time, he began to study Tianjin Capital.

Since we're going to invest the money in them anyway, we need to have a better understanding of Tianjin Capital.

The first time I invested money, Guan Sheng's credit endorsement played a significant role, but this time it's different.

In this way, he worked for four or five hours without realizing it. He not only took a close look at the size of Tianjin Capital, but also searched online for some historical data of Tianjin Capital and its reputation among netizens.

In short, Tianjin Capital is incredibly awesome!

Tianjin Hybrid Selection has been issued for a total of one and a half months, a full thirty trading days. Its net asset value has now reached 3.525. This means that if you invested 100,000 yuan on the day of issuance and have not yet withdrawn it, you can withdraw 352,000 yuan.

This net value is after deducting various handling fees; the actual data is much more accurate. The initial investment of 100,000 yuan may have already generated a return of 360,000 or even 370,000 yuan.

It's so arrogant!

If I had known this beforehand, and invested two billion yuan earlier, now...

I can't even imagine how awesome that would be.

However, it is destined to be unrealistic.

Another fund, Tianjin Global Selection, has only been launched for ten trading days, but its net asset value has already reached 1.792, with a floating profit of nearly 80 points, which is comparable to Tianjin Mixed Selection.

"That's fucking awesome, we should have invited Yan Li over..."

"But they definitely wouldn't want to. It's better to make money for yourself than to help others make money..."

"Sigh, I hope they make a fortune, then I can finally collect my interest peacefully..."

"It's not a big problem that they only acquired a stake in CATL; it's a small percentage. But I've seen online that there are significant risks involved..."

Luo Ze didn't quite understand the stock market, because they didn't have any expertise in the stock market; they only had a superficial understanding.

In the context of the grand game, he felt that all the netizens' comments were correct.

Tianjin Capital isn't wrong either; they're in it for the money! They managed to pull off the previous wave, and if they can pull off this one too, they'll be legendary.

He is now increasingly empathetic to Guan Sheng's actions.

……

"Brother, I don't have any exams after tomorrow. Can I go to Shanghai?"

On Saturday night, Yang Xi sent a message to Lin Lang from her dormitory.

Not long after, she received a reply: "Come if you want. I'll book your flight for the day after tomorrow and arrange for someone to pick you up from the airport."

"Hmm."

"Come back, you can't see your mom yet. Once you're in Shanghai, you can start working. Got it?"

"I heard it."

Yang Xi just wanted to be closer to her mother so she could visit her anytime.

After returning, I took three exams in a row, and tomorrow is the last one.

Although there is still a week until winter break, she does not need to stay at school.

She opened her closet and began organizing the clothes inside.

Many of the clothes inside were ones she wore during previous photoshoots; they're practically unwearable for normal life.

Although those clothes were normal enough, they looked out of place on the street compared to the people around them.

Just like many women in short videos, their clothes look fine, they're just clothes that accentuate their figure, but they're not particularly revealing.

In reality, you see very, very few people wearing such clothes.

Just as she was packing her things, a short-haired girl walked in and asked after seeing what she was doing, "Yang Xi, where are you going?"

"Of course I'm going home. I'll leave after the exam tomorrow."

The short-haired girl said with some disappointment, "After you left a few days ago, I went back to your hometown to look for you the next day, but I couldn't find you... I asked your neighbor, and they said your family went to Shanghai for medical treatment. You're going to Shanghai, right?"

Yang Xi was surprised that the other party would actually go out of their way to inquire about her.

Since that's the case, there's no need for her to hide it anymore. "Mm."

The short-haired girl, her eyes slightly watery, asked, "Have you signed with a company?"

"not yet."

"impossible!"

"Really not yet."

The short-haired girl felt like the sky had fallen when she heard this.

She hasn't even signed with a company yet? And she already has the money to send her family members to Shanghai for medical treatment?

She knew very well how much it would cost to get treatment in Shanghai, especially since Yang Xi wasn't there to take care of her, which meant that they would have to hire a dedicated caregiver.

"Yang Xi, did you agree to the media company boss's unspoken rules?"

"What are you talking about? Even if I want to sign with a company in the future, can't I have a legitimate company?"

Yang Xi knew, of course, that most media companies were not legitimate, either with various traps in their contracts or with ulterior motives.

But Lin Lang's company is definitely fine.

She knew her roommate's personality; if she knew she had signed with another media company, she would definitely be emotional.

Having lived together for two and a half years, she knew that her roommate liked her.

It's that kind of liking between a man and a woman.

In other words, the other party did not do anything outrageous, and she even took the initiative to help him a lot, helping him find a way to make money. He had no aversion to her at all, and was willing to treat her as a very good friend.

Otherwise, she wouldn't consider the other person's feelings.

The short-haired girl looked utterly dejected and said, "Do you think I'm as easy to fool as a three-year-old? Going to Shanghai for medical treatment costs a lot of money. Who would be so nice to you? Did you agree to sleep with the media company boss? Or have you found a sugar daddy?"

These words had driven Yang Xi to a dead end; even if she wanted to find an excuse, she couldn't.

Since the other party has already thought of these things, no matter how much I explain, it will be useless.

Yang Xi turned around and looked at the other person, "Wang Shengnan, do you know how expensive my mother's treatment is? Don't tell me I can't find it in time, even if I could, which sugar daddy would give me tens of millions? You don't think I'm worth that much, do you?"

"What? Tens of millions? How did you get that money?"

“My neighbor lent it to me. He happens to own a media company, and I’m planning to sign a contract with his company so I can pay him back slowly when I earn the money.”

"male?"

"My neighbor's brother could be a woman?"

"No, no, no! It can't be a man! He must have bad intentions towards you!"

"What are you thinking? We've been playing together since we were kids!"

Although Lin Lang went to work in the county after elementary school, he would come back every year for the Spring Festival.

In the last two years, because she needed to earn money, she would come back very late every winter vacation and leave very early after the Lunar New Year, so she didn't have much interaction with Lin Lang.

"You grew up together? Then he'll have even more feelings for you!" Wang Shengnan seemed certain of this.

Yang Xi had no choice but to say, "He already has a girlfriend, and she's a hundred times prettier than me and a super rich woman."

When she was staying at a hotel in Shanghai, the staff from Tianjin Capital who stayed there delivered meals to her several times.

Furthermore, her departure plane ticket was also booked with the help of Tianjin Capital.

At that time, she specifically looked up Tianjin Capital and then saw the information of Yan Li and Lin Lang.

Considering that Lin Lang works every night, it can be proven that Lin Lang is a shareholder of Tianjin Capital, which is a very profitable company.

Yan Li is not only beautiful and has a great figure, but she is also a super rich woman.

With a girl like that by his side, Yang Xi couldn't believe that Lin Lang might like someone else.

"I don't believe it! You are the most beautiful woman in the world!" Wang Shengnan was unimpressed by Yang Xi's rhetoric.

"That's just your own opinion. In front of her, I'm just an ordinary person."

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it! You just went to sleep with someone!" Wang Shengnan was so anxious she almost jumped up.

Yang Xi said helplessly, "My neighbor's girlfriend is a super popular internet celebrity. I can't tell you exactly who she is, so as not to affect them."

"I won't believe you unless you tell me! And I won't tell anyone about this..."

"That won't work either. If you don't believe me, that's fine too. Anyway, things aren't what you think. Once I've paid off all the money I owe for my mother's medical treatment, I'll pay you back as soon as possible."

Yang Xi also didn't want to cause trouble for Lin Lang, since Yan Li hadn't publicly acknowledged their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend.
