Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 346 Is there something I haven't discovered that conflicts of interest with her?
After the meal, Song Zhiyuan left immediately, and Lin Lang also came out to see his relatives and see some people off.

As for Guan Sheng, he has already eaten at the banquet and learned about some of Lin Lang's plans, so he has already gained something and needs to go back as soon as possible.

Going back is easy; there are plenty of train tickets.

Lei Hongyi was going to the company, Qin Haiyang was going back, Fu Xueqing also had work to do, and He Qiang came out with Lin Lang.

Only Yan Li's family remained sitting inside.

Before Lin Lang and his family came in, Yan Keming said to Yan Li, "Lili, you should know what Lin Lang is thinking. He's using Tianjin Capital as his own financing machine."

Yan Li said, "Dad, he is doing this to build a moat for Tianjin Capital. If Tianjin Capital only has finance, then once the global financial market has problems, Tianjin Capital will face unprecedented pressure."

For other public funds, their competitive advantage lies in their stable funds that they don't redeem for years or even decades.

But Lin Lang clearly didn't want that kind of moat; it wasn't very profitable.

“Even if Lin Lang wants to build a moat, it won’t be in Tianshui County. He can go to Shanghai, Beijing, Shenzhen, or even Chongqing… anywhere but Tianshui County! This is his home turf, and you’re not the mistress of this place yet. Once you’re here, your existence will be meaningless; he can find a replacement for anything…”

Yan Li did not respond upon hearing this.

She was well aware that once Lin Lang established his business in Tianshui County, even if Tianjin Capital held a portion of the equity in the relevant industries, the real power would still belong to Lin Lang.

It's perfectly acceptable for Lin Lang to use Tianjin Capital as a platform to do his own business; it's a win-win situation for everyone involved.

However, Yan Li could not accept being completely replaced.

Whether in Shanghai or any other city, no one could replace Lin Lang in her position.

She is not only a girlfriend, but also an excellent business partner and a college classmate.

However, once in Tianshui County, Lin Lang had plenty of business partners.

As for a girlfriend? The sentimentality of college classmates? Lin Lang can find anything here.

There's Shen An'an, his various classmates, and all sorts of relatives and friends...

Once Lin Lang has made a decision, no one can change it.

After all, Lin Lang single-handedly built up Tianjin Capital's various funds, so he didn't want anyone causing him trouble in this way.

Overall, this matter is not significant and is even beneficial to Tianjin Capital, perfectly aligning with its operations.

This was originally Lin Lang's forte.

Yan Li neither wanted to refute Lin Lang nor would she.

"I'll listen to Lin Lang on this matter."

Yan Li made his stance clear.

Yan Keming didn't hesitate, "Alright, you two should get married as soon as possible! Also, stop trying to appease Shen An'an's feelings. If you continue, she will directly threaten you."

"okay."

A few minutes later, Lin Yuliang and Xu Xiuyun came in. After all, Yan Li's family was the most important guest, and it was already their limit that they could spare a few minutes to deal with the other guests.

Lin Lang had been with us during the previous meal, and with so many relatives coming, this was finally the moment when the two families truly met.

Lin Yuliang and Xu Xiuyun have done a lot of mental preparation during this period.

Yan Li's family is indeed not an ordinary family. In terms of status and position, the couple usually have no chance to come into contact with them.

Lin Yuliang, in particular, was incredibly humble when facing Yan Keming.

During the conversation, he basically just nodded in agreement with whatever Yan Keming said, without having any opinions of his own.

Only Xu Xiuyun's aura wasn't much weaker, after all, Lin Lang was by her side.

She said directly, "Father-in-laws, Langlang and Lili's relationship has already reached this point. This year, I'd like to bring Lili over for the Lunar New Year. What do you think? If you agree, we'll go tomorrow..."

Yan Keming remained silent, while Chen Lin said, "Lili is all grown up now, and we are certainly happy that she can be with Lin Lang. However, this mainly depends on Lili's opinion. If she agrees, then we have nothing to say."

Hearing this response, Xu Xiuyun felt relieved and looked at Yan Li, asking, "Lili, how about coming to our house for the New Year? I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."

"Oh? Auntie, how about I stay here tonight? Then you won't have to trouble yourself to go there."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xiuyun must have thought about it, but according to custom, she had to formally accept it to show her respect.

"We still need to welcome them back. There are customs in our hometown. When we bring them back for the festival, we can't skip the proper ceremonies."

The so-called ceremony is simply bringing money and giving gifts.

Once a man and woman establish a relationship, as long as they are not married, the man's family is expected to send gifts to the woman on major holidays, a practice known as holiday gifts.

Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Lunar New Year's Eve, and Lantern Festival are the four essential festivals; other festivals are optional.

When bringing a girl home for the holiday, it's even more necessary to prepare an extra red envelope.

No matter how wealthy Yan Li's family is, if they follow the proper procedures, no one will gossip about them.

Yan Li said, "Auntie, we are staying at my uncle's house, not my own home, so please don't trouble yourself."

Yan Keming then said, "Lili is right. We don't need to make things so complicated. We can just have Lin Lang bring Lili back on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year."

"Yes, that's for sure."

Yan Li, who is in the second year of junior high school, still has to visit relatives.

……

Bingning was forced to come to the county town with Pumin.

Since they were both driving, they didn't talk much on the road.

After arriving in the county town, Pu Min specially invited Bing Ning to her home. After Bing Ning sat down, she said, "Thank you so much for today. Did you tell Lin Lang about my visit?"

She didn't dare to go today, but after seeing Bing Ning, she asked Bing Ning to deliver the gift money on her behalf. As a result... Lin Lang somehow found out about it and went to invite her to dinner.

"Yes, Lin Lang happened to see it when it was being recorded in the books."

Bing Ning never expected Pu Min to come.

She put on a very elaborate act, specifically taking Pu Min to a table where there were few acquaintances, and also telling Lin Yuliang and Xu Xiuyun not to call her.

After all, she had already told Pu Min that she wasn't very familiar with Lin Lang. If Pu Min found out that she and Lin Lang were not only familiar but also like family, the situation would be too awkward.

Pu Min said, "It seems like you're very familiar with Lin Lang's family. Lin Lang's parents know you."

"That's because I designed the villa in Lin Lang's hometown, so I dealt with his parents for a while. But as you know, Sister Min, being familiar with Lin Lang's parents is useless. His parents don't get involved in Lin Lang's affairs."

"Yes, that's for sure. After all, Lin Lang's scale is so large now that ordinary people wouldn't have the ability to participate even if they wanted to."

Pu Min poured water for Bing Ning and then sat down next to her.

Bing Ning really didn't know what to say; all she wanted to do was find an excuse to leave.

After all, her excuse for coming to the county town was to go back, but Pu Min insisted that she come here.

Pu Min sighed and said, "Alas, it's a pity that Lin Lang was quite busy today. Even He Qiang didn't stay long. I didn't have time to find an opportunity to ask Lin Lang for advice."

Bingning said, "Sister Min, you don't need to be in such a hurry. It won't take a day or two to make a difference. By the way, are you going back to the city for the Chinese New Year?"

“I’ll be alone in the city anyway, my family won’t be here, so I’m not going back… You’re alone too, so let’s spend the New Year together.”

Bingning: "..."

Who's with you alone?
"I need to see if I'm busy first. If I'm not busy, I'll keep Min company."

Bing Ning made up an excuse. Pu Min asked, "Still busy during the New Year?"

"Yes, Big Fish Media wants us to finish the work as soon as possible. There's still a lot left, and I'm going to Tianshui Group soon."

Bingning found herself a perfect excuse.

After chatting for a few more minutes, I took the opportunity to leave.

Pu Min escorted Bing Ning to the elevator, but Bing Ning stopped her there and didn't see her off any further.

Standing by the elevator, I watched it go to the parking garage, but it came back up shortly afterward.

This was perfectly normal, but when she saw the elevator finally stop on the floor above hers, a thought suddenly popped into her head.

Could it be that Bing Ning went back?

After the elevator stopped, there was no movement for a long time, indicating that Bingning was not simply going back to get something.

Pu Min couldn't help but call Bing Ning.

"Ningning, have you arrived at Tianshui Group yet?"

"Just arrived, just parked the car."

"That's good, I'm relieved. Call me for dinner sometime."

"Okay, sure."

After hanging up the phone, Pu Min couldn't understand why Bing Ning had lied to her.

Although all of this was just my wild guess, there weren't many residents in this building to begin with, and this elevator only went up to one floor, which was occupied by only one family.

Even if it wasn't Bing Ning, the person who went up there must have had a lot to do with Bing Ning.

"I have no conflict of interest with her, so there's absolutely no reason for her to lie to me, right?"

"Is there some conflict of interest that I haven't noticed?"

……

Yan Keming and his wife left around 4 p.m., while Yan Li naturally stayed behind.

The Lin family kept watching until Yan Keming's car was out of sight before turning back.

There are also some relatives in the family, all of whom are very close, according to Lin Lang's requirements, they are direct blood relatives from the lineage of his grandfather and maternal grandfather.

There will be five more tables at home tonight, after all, Lin Yuliang has four siblings, Xu Xiuyun has five siblings, that's nine families.

Lin Lang was so busy that he didn't even have time to check his phone. After a brief moment of quiet, Yan Li found him and said, "The net asset value of Tianjin Hybrid Selection is out today. As planned, it rose slightly. They didn't continue to sell off. They only bought some shares when the liquor stocks fell. Overall, the net asset value rose by less than half a point."

"As long as it didn't break, that's fine. Just get through tomorrow. We don't have any funds on hand, so we can only make new arrangements after the new funds arrive after the New Year."

"Well, the two new funds have only received less than 20 billion in subscriptions so far. Is that enough?"

"Two hundred billion is definitely not enough. We need at least six hundred billion to cover our previous debts. But don't worry, after the New Year, we'll adjust the limit of the innovation investment fund to fifty thousand yuan."

Yan Li: "..."

No, it's Lin Lang...

Yan Lizhen hadn't expected this move.

This tactic may seem simple, but it requires a special mindset: to treat fund investors like monkeys.

Yan Li herself couldn't possibly reach that level psychologically; only Lin Lang could casually come up with an idea to manipulate others.

If the Innovation Pioneer A fund suddenly adjusts its investment limit from 200,000 to 50,000, investors who have been waiting on the sidelines will definitely go crazy.

What does the quota represent? You can see it from the performance of Tianjin Hybrid Selection.

The limit indicates that Tianjin Capital already has enough money and doesn't need much more going forward, and it also shows that Tianjin Capital has great confidence in this fund.

Just like stocks, when many stocks open two or three points higher, the funds that are watching don't dare to buy at all. But when they see that the stock is about to hit the daily limit, they rush in like crazy.

There's clearly more room for growth when it's only two or three points...

As for certainty, there is no certainty. Whether the stock rises by two points or by nine points, it is still the same stock. All market conditions cannot be determined on the same day. Data from the previous few days is still relevant.

Deciding to buy in at the highest point that day was basically pure luck.

Lin Lang's adjustment to the quota this time is just like using stock price manipulation to drive up the price to the daily limit and lure more buyers.

This is telling investors who are waiting to buy that if they don't buy now, they won't be able to buy at all.

Then the other fund, which still has a limit of 500,000, will become the target of a frenzy.

"Honey, please don't play these games with me like this again, I'm scared..."

Yan Li hugged Lin Lang and whispered something.

"Hmm? What are you imagining now?"

"Do I even need to use my imagination?"

Yan Li has reviewed Lin Lang's steps more than once, including what Lin Lang said at the dinner party today.

If...if the new energy vehicle industry takes off this year, then...what will the result be?
This is a sector with tremendous potential, and Tianjin Capital wants to take the biggest slice.

Even if others dare not enter the market, prices will still rise, but without the support of large funds, the overall increase will not be particularly exaggerated.

But Tianjin Capital can wait, can other funds wait?
Which stocks have potential? Which stocks are core resources?

Unfortunately, Lin Lang also secretly bought some liquor. No matter how much they tried to persuade him, Tianjin Capital's small capital still allowed them flexibility.

While the potential for growth in the baijiu (Chinese liquor) market is vast, its overall potential is limited; it could be three times, five times, or even ten times greater.

We can't possibly be thinking about twenty or thirty times, can we?
New energy vehicles are different; their space can be thirty times, fifty times, or even a hundred times larger.

Tianjin Capital dares to invest heavily in liquor stocks at certain times, but would others dare to continue investing heavily in new energy stocks?

Tianjin Capital possesses absolute flexibility.

……

Not long after Yan Keming left, Lin Lang and Yan Li got back to entertaining their relatives.

For Lin Lang, no one calling him meant nothing serious, so he didn't have time to check his phone.

It wasn't until after 7 p.m., when Lin Lang went to the bathroom after dinner, that he took out his phone to check it.

Then, I saw the message from Bingning.

"I left my car keys at home, could you please get them and hand them to An'an?"

The time is 2 PM.

Why didn't you call me?

Lin Lang replied.

If Bingning doesn't see her reply, she should call herself within half an hour at most.

"Oh? An'an said you delivered the keys. I thought you were busy and didn't reply to me."
