Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 306 The Pie in the Sky That Was Prepared Long Ago
Lin Lang's statement about going in half an inch directly brought the whole matter to life.

For Guan Sheng, what was the purpose of investing in Tianjin Capital? It was to gain the strength to compete with established public funds and prevent them from continuing to act with impunity.

Because no matter how many rules there are, they cannot restrain God.

Only another, more powerful god can destroy a god.

Otherwise, those established mutual funds wouldn't be afraid.

He hadn't considered how strong Tianjin Capital's strategic awareness would be, at least not now; it would take several years.

However, Tianjin Capital has already started doing it.

They did it a hundred times better than they ever imagined.

Lin Lang's ingenious idea, and the current progress, shows that he can really make it happen if he has the money.

Guan Sheng's gaze became more serious than ever before.

Admittedly, he is still far from his ideal, but at least he has made an effort, and so far, all his plans have been reasonable.

Many people know that the core of public funds is the chips they can use for speculation at any time. These chips are from some of the top companies in China, and given the opportunity, they can soar to new heights.

But no one thought about how to snatch those chips from the public funds.

How can they compete? Public funds aren't stupid either.

Even if you are extremely wealthy, it's not advisable to directly enter the market and acquire shares, as this will drive the stock price to extremely high levels and create an unlimited cost of capital.

One hundred billion? One trillion? Or even ten trillion?
We need to get those public funds to willingly hand over their chips.

Lin Lang has already done it.

He knew better than anyone else that among Tianjin Capital's top ten holdings, half of the shares held by public funds had already been lost.

However, Tianjin Capital did not take on many.

Funding is limiting Tianjin Capital, and various rules are limiting Tianjin Capital.

Similarly, it is precisely because of these restrictions that public funds are willing to invest heavily.

Because those mutual funds felt that Tianjin Capital couldn't possibly raise enough money to acquire shares, and besides, that money didn't belong to Tianjin Capital, and fund investors could redeem it at any time, so they simply didn't have enough capital operation capabilities.

But Tianjin Capital has its own ideas.

Using retail investors' money to buy their shares...

This is equivalent to retail investors currently acquiring shares on behalf of Tianjin Capital.

Who would have thought of this?

Those public funds never imagined things would turn out this way.

They're probably still fantasizing that the stocks have risen a lot recently, so they can dump them now and temporarily use the funds to invest in other stocks. They think that once Tianjin Capital can no longer push up these stocks, the shares will naturally fall back down, which is equivalent to doing a T+0 trade, and the kind that makes hundreds of billions or even tens of billions in profit.

Would they have had such a good opportunity if Tianjin Capital hadn't made its move?
However, Tianjin Capital made another move behind the scenes.

The plan was already in place starting with Tianjin Mixed Selection.

They have the highest popularity across the entire internet, and Yan Li is a top-tier internet celebrity with 23 million followers. A single video she posts can garner tens of millions of views.

Having learned from past mistakes, will their two new products be highly sought after?

Will!

As for whether investors' hot money will run away halfway?

What are the initial investment period and the restricted sales period?
Whether it's Tianjin Mixed Selection or Tianjin Global Selection, neither of them has set a so-called sales restriction period, but that doesn't mean this function is unavailable.

As long as a lock-up period is set up to lock up the funds, with the strength of Tianjin Capital, can't they create a market trend in half a year?

The reason we didn't set a lock-up period before was because Tianjin Capital needed buzz and activity.

Especially at the beginning, if they set a three-month sales restriction, they might not be able to gather enough people.

Moreover, without any restrictions on resale, how much money did Tianjin Capital make?

Those fund investors who enter the market and then run away after a few days should at least leave two or three points behind.

For example, someone bought 10,000 yuan worth of Tianjin Mixed Selection Fund, made 10,000 yuan, and then chose to redeem the fund due to public opinion.

Then the other party will have to bear the redemption fee. Tianjin Capital's redemption fee is not low, up to 2.5%. If you redeem 20,000, you will have to pay a redemption fee of 500, which is equivalent to five percent of the principal.

Secondly, if the other party sees the Tianjin Mixed Selection stock rising and can't resist entering the market, they will first have to pay a subscription fee of 1.5%. If they make some money a few days later and then sell, they will have to pay a redemption fee of 2.5%.

If there is a lock-up period, how much less money would Tianjin Capital earn?

Guan Sheng used to think that Yan Li was more generous, but now it seems that every step was well-planned.

The architect behind Tianjin Capital is most likely Lin Lang, which explains why he holds 40% of the shares. This puts him on par with Yan Liping, and any major decision made by Tianjin Capital cannot be implemented without his approval.

The reason he called Yan Li today was that he didn't want Tianjin Capital to be tainted. He had been contacting other investors to prepare to give Tianjin Capital several billion more to see if it could help them get through this difficult time.

Now, after hearing Lin Lang's description, he had no other choice.

We absolutely must help Tianjin Capital get through this crisis!
Yan Keming's money is indeed good, but... we can't accept it!

Where does the money come from?

He doesn't have any, but... his face is valuable.

Besides his face being valuable, there are many people willing to help him exchange his face for money.

At worst, we can use all our resources!

The blueprint Lin Lang described was simply too attractive to him.

They've already gone half an inch in; if they don't go all out to push Tianjin Capital in, they might not have another chance like this in the future.

Even if Tianjin Capital becomes a new established public fund and becomes too big to handle, it can at least turn the stagnant public fund industry upside down!
At worst, we can lay in wait in advance and take advantage of the chaos in the mutual fund industry to support another fund, which can then be used to counterbalance Tianjin Capital in the future.

As long as Lin Lang's blueprint can be realized, nothing else matters!
Thinking back on Lin Lang's entire plan again, he wondered how anyone could have come up with such a step.

Unless he came with this purpose from the beginning and knew that he would succeed at every step.

How many challenges has Tianjin Capital weathered so far?

Tianjin Capital's current divine status did not come out of thin air; it came from countless trials and tribulations.

If Tianjin Global Selection had performed even slightly worse, it wouldn't have achieved its current success. People would say that Tianjin Capital's brilliance in China is purely due to its operations.

The success of Tianjin Global Selection proves that Tianjin Capital is capable.

Since then, no one has said that Tianjin Capital was just lucky, nor has anyone said that Tianjin Capital's previous achievements were due to taking shortcuts or manipulating public opinion online.

Every step in this process must be flawless to have reached this point.

Yan Li, standing to the side, watched Lin Lang speaking passionately and felt somewhat dazed. Was this the Lin Lang she knew?

Does he have such a noble character?

He even set up a "borderline" department to sell erotic fiction within new media novels...

Although the content of those erotic stories is certainly not illegal.

However, many details reveal that Lin Lang's principles for making money are very low.
This isn't a bad thing. There's nothing wrong with doing anything to make money, as long as it's not illegal.

However, the difference between the human qualities Lin Lang possessed in the past and those he displays now is so great that she is somewhat uncertain about which one is Lin Lang's true personality.

He didn't tell his father any of what he said today.

If he were to speak up, his own father would surely be persuaded and would support him even if it meant going bankrupt.

There's no other reason than that there's enough room for imagination.

This imaginative space transcends the heavens.

Just like a few years ago, someone shouted: "I'm suffocating for my dream," and then got his dad to take out 500 million yuan.

At that time, the other party had nothing at all; their so-called car manufacturing was just a concept. As a result, they secured billions of dollars in funding.

And what about Lin Lang this time?

Just as he said, such an imaginative blueprint has already progressed half an inch, and this half inch is unprecedented, enough to make anyone truly suffocate for their dream.

Success means dominating an era!
Failure is nothing more than wasting a few decades.

No one can resist such a temptation, especially someone who keeps climbing.

Just like climbing Mount Everest, if you only want to reach an altitude of 5,000 meters, you don't need to put in too much effort. But if you want to reach 5,500 meters, you have to start putting in the effort.

To reach 6,000, you have to put in ten times more effort than to reach 5,500...

Every step towards the summit comes at a great cost, but for my father, it's all bearable.

Yan Li glanced at Guan Sheng beside her. Guan Sheng looked relatively calm, but his eyes were incredibly firm.

"Mr. Lin, just tell me, how much money do you need?"

Lin Lang wore a calm smile, as if he hadn't just given a passionate speech.

"Boss, you just need to approve our application for the transfer agreement. There might be another one later. Two hundred billion will be enough for our initial operations."

Lin Lang didn't mention money at all.

Even though the meaning of Guan Sheng's words was already quite clear.

Upon hearing this, Guan Sheng said, "Agreement transfer is not the best solution! It's not worth it to smear Tianjin Capital for a mere 20 billion."

"what?"

"what?"

Lin Lang and Yan Li both exclaimed in surprise.

A mere 20 billion?
Regardless of Guan Sheng's identity, even if the world's richest man stood in front of him, he would not describe it as a mere 20 billion.

This adjective is more like a concrete representation of Guan Sheng's attitude.

Lin Lang said, "Boss, Tianjin Capital was able to achieve this on its own. You have already helped a lot, so I didn't mean to trouble you."

"I know you have your own ideas. You were able to elevate this to a strategic level from the very beginning, so this move today was somewhat expected. However, once you make an off-exchange agreement, you'll be at a disadvantage in terms of public opinion. Even if you control the channels of communication, you'll inevitably be labeled negatively. Go back and submit a bond issuance report to me. Today, I'll give you six billion to handle the redemption. I'll get you another two hundred billion within three days..."

"Okay! Then I'll follow the leader's instructions!"

Lin Lang took the USB drive and sat down to the side.

“Since the leadership is going to take the money directly, we at Tianjin Capital need to change our plans. We originally planned to acquire stakes in two stocks today, but we'll just acquire stakes in one first, and then drag out the market for a couple more days to let the major players dump more shares…”

"Okay, no problem, you can handle it yourselves."

Guan Sheng doesn't understand trading; all he's thinking about right now is how to get that much money.

He can come up with six billion today.

The source of this six billion... was that he swindled it from Luo Ze.

Strictly speaking, it was he who tricked Luo Ze into going to the pension insurance scam.

Luo Ze works for medical insurance, and his pension insurance is in the same system as his, both being departments under the social security system. They have a good relationship and interact frequently.

On Saturday, Luo Ze approached him, saying that he felt Tianjin Capital was going too far. Although the net asset value was rising, it was very dangerous in the long run.

So Guan Sheng took the opportunity to trick him into bringing in the pension insurance as well, saying that if something really happened in the future, the pension insurance would have money and wouldn't stand idly by. Two people are always more powerful than three.

And so, this six billion came about.

But since he wants to help Tianjin Capital raise another 20 billion, this kind of deception won't work.

Of course, there are also unemployment benefits and childcare allowances that you can try to get, but their scale is too small, and even if you can fool them, you won't be able to get much money out of them.

Six billion is just a drop in the ocean for pension funds, but for unemployment benefits and childcare allowances, it's like cutting ten pounds of flesh from a cow—it hurts a lot.

"We still have to keep trying to squeeze money out of the pension fund!"

Guan Sheng has already decided on his direction.

After chatting for a while, Lin Lang and Yan Li left.

After all, both of them had things to do when they got back.

On the way back, Yan Li, in the passenger seat, asked, "If my dad knew you lied to him the other day, he'd probably be furious..."

"Lie? No, I told him the truth."

"So what did you say today?"

"Today's move is just a temporary measure. If I don't raise Tianjin Capital's profile, will Guan Sheng give us the money? Even if your father gives us 20 billion, it won't be enough. Tianjin Capital doesn't have a better reason to issue bonds, and it can't find anyone willing to lend us money."

"Huh? You're lying today? Then how come you prepared a PowerPoint presentation in advance?"

Yan Lizhen never doubted Lin Lang, because Lin Lang didn't have time to prepare a PPT, since he decided to come at the last minute.

"The PPT was prepared a long time ago. I've been carrying it with me. I originally wanted to draw this pie in a while. I initially wanted to show it to your dad, but he's more supportive of us, so I kept it. I didn't expect it to come in handy today."

Yan Li: "???"

Lin Lang continued, "How could something like this be so easy to succeed? Let alone a mere 20 billion, even 200 billion would be a huge shortfall. Guan Sheng, a middle-aged man, loves to take advantage of others. Getting some money out of him will reduce our burden."
