Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 379 What if you and Lin Lang had a child?

The number of registered users of Tianjin Wealth app reached 150 million in just two days.

Although many mainstream apps have hundreds of millions of users, Tianjin Wealth took the shortest time to achieve this.

Lin Lang's value this time is multifaceted, including the off-stage advertising revenue he garnered, which started at 2 billion yuan.

Money and traffic are sometimes equivalent, but the ratio is not fixed.

Some people spend tens or hundreds of yuan to acquire traffic, while others may only spend a small amount of money on a single marketing campaign.

As for other platforms, once they acquire users, their most important task is to get those users to spend money.

However, this problem does not exist in the Tianjin Wealth app, because... those people will take out their money voluntarily as long as they have it.

If they are willing to buy funds, then it means they will have to pay Tianjin Capital tens or even hundreds of yuan every year.

On Monday, Lin Lang received news that Tianjin Hybrid Selection had increased its subscription by more than 4 billion yuan.

Tianjin Capital has once again expanded its scale.

This 4 billion represents 400,000 ID card accounts.

This was for subscriptions placed on Sunday...

After the market opened on Monday, Lin Lang noticed the anomaly in the liquor sector.

After a brief surge in the deep waters, the price quickly and strongly climbed, reaching seven or eight points above the water level, where a battle of wits ensued.

Lin Lang didn't try to push the price up; he just arranged for the traders to gradually buy in, knowing that the overall trading volume would definitely be high today.

After the volume increased, his money was hidden inside and not obvious.

From the perspective of retail investors, this wave seems more like a continuation of the previous one, because most of the shares were traded at high levels, which is more like the main players raising prices to distribute their shares.

Lin Lang didn't need to think about these things; he only knew that the price of liquor would definitely rise.

There are only so many resources in the A-share market. If those established mutual funds no longer care about net asset value performance, then it doesn't matter.

Lin Lang was willing to accept letting Tianjin Capital gradually win over their users.

As for how Tianjin Capital will end up, Lin Lang won't consider it for the time being. At worst, he can make money from overseas markets to subsidize the domestic market. As long as he can stabilize the domestic funds, then Tianjin Capital will be the future bellwether of the entire A-share market.

Having seized the initiative, he can do whatever he wants. Plus, he knows the direction for the next ten years, so he can proceed with ease during this period.

Essentially, Tianjin Capital itself is playing a game of musical chairs. If investors who made money leave the market and there isn't enough capital coming in later, it will eventually collapse.

Because it's impossible for everyone to make money; if some people make money, others will inevitably lose money.

After the market closed in the afternoon, the net asset value of Tianjin Hybrid Selection rose by six points, officially breaking through 8.5 and creating a new high.

Tianjin Innovation Pioneer A rose by only four points, while Tianjin Long-Term Pioneer A rose by less than three points.

The strong impact of baijiu (Chinese liquor) has led to a divergence in net asset value.

Starting at 3 PM, as the European foreign exchange market opened, Lin Lang's attention turned there again.

Regarding Tianjin Global Selection, he doesn't have any particularly good options yet. He might allocate some funds to invest once the Euro stabilizes.

In any case, Tianjin Global Selection is qualified to guarantee that there will be no margin call, as there is plenty of money in it.

The euro largely continued its trend from yesterday after the market opened.

The price started rising as soon as it opened.

Although the trend wasn't strong, it still reached the 1.0904 level.

When the US market opened at 6 PM, the price surged and quickly reached 1.0912.

After reaching this position, Lin Lang began to gradually close out some of his positions.

During Lin Lang's liquidation process, the exchange rate continued to rise.

Lin Lang originally planned to close out half of his position, but as he watched the exchange rate reach 1.0932, he made a decisive decision to close out 20% of his position there.

After closing out 20% of his position, his cost basis was reduced to 1.0802.

The cost was that the inventory level was reduced from 70% to 50%.

Lin Lang's reason for closing his position was simple: he wanted to play it safe.

Exchange rates fluctuate daily, and these fluctuations can easily wipe out a day's worth of effort. When the price surges so high, closing out positions is the only viable and most cost-effective option.

If he can keep going up, he'll just earn a little less at most.

However, if the price retraces, he will lose the profits he has already made, which is equivalent to losing his principal.

Just like investing in stocks, if you frequently add to your position in a rising stock, you can indeed maximize your profits as long as it keeps going up.

However, once the price falls, the positions added during the upward trend will become the knife that kills you.

Lin Lang knew the price would definitely rise, but it certainly wouldn't rise every day. It would have to drive up the prices of a few people before it could generate profits.

The market surged so much today that his risk-averse behavior is perfectly reasonable.

After all, today's situation is not enough to make him feel at ease.

Unless he manages to lower his costs to an extremely low level, such that even a one-point fluctuation within the day won't lead to a margin call, he can then let go and patiently wait for the current market trend to end.

This round of increases will last at least six or seven months, and the increase of only thirteen points certainly doesn't happen every day.

There's even a 50% chance that a callback will occur.

For Lin Lang, the best option is to close the position when the price rises by more than 0.3% and open a new position when the price falls by more than 0.2%.

This is also an algorithmic model for maximizing the benefits of a given interval, which can avoid some drawdowns overall.

Of course, there's also the possibility of extreme market conditions, such as a continuous upward trend, in which case some profits might be lost.

However, that was not within Lin Lang's consideration. A continuous rise meant that the market trend was short-lived. If it continued to rise for a short period of time, his capital usage costs would be much lower. He could simply wait for the next round, or he could try to profit from the left-side trend.

Until 11 p.m., the exchange rate did not fall back, and Lin Lang did not make any further moves, keeping 50% of his position empty.

He didn't participate in the subsequent net asset value calculations, but returned to his hotel. Yan Li wasn't at the company tonight; Lin Lang told her to go home and rest after get off work, as Tianjin Capital still had other work for her to do.

Putting aside ability and value, Yan Li's workload is much greater than mine. I'm basically a nobody, and the company's affairs have nothing to do with him.

……

After the New Year, Mi Xiaofan felt a little more relaxed, since there was a lot of traffic during the New Year period and she had to film a lot of things every day.

In addition, she brought several online celebrities with her, basically traveling all over the country with two teams.

Actually, she hadn't adapted to her new identity yet, and she was asking Yun Yiyi for advice on many things.

For example, how to arrange other internet celebrities, how to get along with the team, and what kind of topics to shoot.

Yun Yiyi could offer advice on other aspects, but when it came to the subject matter of the film, she was advised to consult Lin Lang.

She didn't dare to make a phone call, but instead sent Lin Lang a message.

Lin Lang would usually give her a reply within a few hours, offering some guidance.

Now, many of her videos have over a million likes, and the dances and background music she uses have become objects of imitation for others.

Twelve million fans...

Today, she came to Yun Yi's house.

Inside the bedroom, the two sat and chatted as before. Mi Xiaofan even prepared a gift for Yun Yiyi, since Yun Yiyi was about to give birth.

"Yiyi, my mom contacted me a while ago, and now I don't know how to get along with her."

Mi Xiaofan told me something.

Upon hearing this, Yun Yiyi exclaimed, "She's back?"

"Yes, she divorced that man in Shanghai..."

"Tell me your thoughts first."

Mi Xiaofan: "I don't want to talk to her. After my dad passed away, she ignored me. Now that she's back, how am I supposed to face her? Besides, she even had a child with that man from Shanghai."

Yun Yiyi said, "You're not wrong to think that way. Even if she says you're not supporting her and sues you in the future, the court will at most order you to give her a few hundred yuan a month for living expenses. However, once you choose this path, you won't have any room for error."

What is the margin of error?

"Essentially, she's only after money! She knows you're rich now and wants to be close to you. Now that you have money, she'll give you whatever you want. She doesn't care about saving face, but she's also realistic. As long as you manage your money well, you don't necessarily have to abandon her."

"What do you mean? I don't need her right now."

Mi Xiaofan didn't quite understand.

“You don’t need her now, but you definitely will in the future. What you need from her is not how much benefit she brings you, but how much peace of mind she brings you.”

When is it needed?

"When you become richer and richer, you will need her. People earn money, and apart from spending a portion on themselves, most of it is for others to see. Earning money after you have satisfied your own desires is to let others know how successful you are. She brings you pain, but she can also give you a sense of accomplishment in the future. When you can make her willingly take care of you and listen to you with the money you earn in a minute, that feeling has the highest cost-effectiveness."

"But I don't want to be that good to her."

"This is the feeling she should have. How can you think that giving her three to five thousand yuan a month is being good to her? You can easily throw away three to five thousand yuan. Don't look at this from your past perspective. You're different now. Maybe your income can't satisfy all your desires right now, but it will soon. You have to see what the future holds..."

Mi Xiaofan doesn't actually earn much money right now, but as long as she doesn't buy luxury goods, she can easily make ends meet. In fact, she has unknowingly accumulated over 100,000 yuan in her bank account, and the value of the account is still increasing.

The price...

Although she didn't ask, it would probably take several hundred million to terminate her contract with Big Fish Media and leave with her account.

"I still don't understand."

"Fanfan, let me give you a very simple example: have you ever thought about marriage?"

Mi Xiaofan: "..."

marry?

How do you get married?

After signing with Big Fish Media, she is unlikely to get married for at least ten years.

She shook her head.

"You never even considered marrying Lin Lang?"

"Huh? How could I possibly marry him? You have no idea how powerful he is now. Big Fish Media is just a small part of his business. He must be worth billions now."

Yun Yiyi said with a smile, "You really underestimate Lin Lang. His net worth is definitely more than several billion now. Although I don't know how much he can get, his net worth is at least tens of billions."

"So... he's even further away from me now, we're from completely different worlds. Especially after seeing Yan Li, I don't even have the confidence to bother him anymore."

"You're overthinking things. You already have millions of followers, why do you still have an inferiority complex?"

"Everyone feels inferior in his presence."

"But you also need to understand one thing: Lin Lang has already earned enough money for his entire life. What's the point of him continuing to make money?"

"what?"

"Essentially, it's what I've been saying. There are only two purposes for making money: material desires and spiritual desires. The more he wants to make money, the stronger his spiritual desires are. To put it bluntly, Yan Li is indeed very outstanding, but she's not without substitutes. Lin Lang has plenty of beautiful women around him. Gao Yu, the vice president of Dayu Media, I don't believe any man can resist her charm. And Fu Xueqing from Juhe Group, she's also an elegant and noble beauty. And Shen An'an, who also lives in this villa area, is incredibly attractive to someone like Lin Lang. I even heard that Lin Lang arranged for a neighbor from his hometown to go to Shanghai for medical treatment, and that girl is also very beautiful..."

"Yi-yi, what do you want to say?"

"I just want to tell you that you don't need to feel hopeless at all. At least you're already by Lin Lang's side and can see him anytime. You don't need to worry about Yan Li's identity. What you need to think about is how to provide some value to the most outstanding man in the world, besides money... It might be a trivial matter to him, but it can elevate your life several times over. Just like your mother, when you earn tens of millions a year, is giving her a few thousand yuan for living expenses a lot? It might not even be enough for one of your meals, but for her, it's like elevating her life to a whole new level. Put yourself in her shoes, how would you feel? What if you got pregnant, and it was Lin Lang's child?"

For a moment, Mi Xiaofan was lost in thought...

Yun Yiyi continued, "What I'm saying certainly doesn't mean you should be unconditionally good to her. Just like you are by Lin Lang's side, if you are worthless, if you only cause trouble, no matter how beautiful you are, even if you are the most beautiful woman in the world, Lin Lang won't look at you. Humans are social animals, and there are actually very few people who are suitable to live with you in a group. I am at most half a person. As for the others, you might have to be wary of them. Your mother may not be a person now, but if you train her properly, she can be one. She can provide you with a lot of emotional value in the future."

If your goal is just this, then you really don't need to pay attention to her. Even if you earn tens of millions, hundreds of millions, or even hundreds of millions a year, there are plenty of things in the world that can satisfy your material desires, and you can spend that money. But what if... what if you and Lin Lang really have a child? You can't expect me to handle your privacy, can you?
