Financial freedom starts with cracked apps.

The entrance to Ronghuaxuan Chinese Restaurant.

A group of well-dressed, distinguished business owners surrounded Lin Shen.

Especially after Shen Yun learned that this was the "big boss" behind Shen Nan, everyone was even more astonished.

After all, Lin Shen is just too young.

He was so young that when he got out of the car, everyone thought he was Shen Yun's nephew or something, and that he had brought him to a grand occasion.

Who knew that the other party was actually the chairman of Shennan!
"Hello, Chairman Lin!"

Of course, even though Lin Shen is younger than everyone else present and is considered a junior, his status and position are not insignificant.

So someone was the first to react, and took the initiative to extend their right hand to Lin Shen and introduce themselves, hoping to make him remember them.

"I am Zhao Weidong, the marketing manager of Anlan Hair Care."

"Hello, Chairman Lin! I'm from Mingse Clothing..."

"Hello, Chairman Lin!"

"..."

Faced with so many introductions, Lin Shen responded with a smile to each one, but did he really remember their names and company names?

No, not at all.

There were simply too many of them; there were at least dozens of Party B representatives present.

Fortunately, they were in charge of different projects; otherwise, they might have even come to blows.

After all, in their eyes, the job Lin Shen had was a huge one!
According to Shen Yun, the one thing Shennan has in abundance is funding.

If you do a good job, not only will the payment come quickly, but they might even help you modify the production line.

This is a great job!
Upon learning that Shen Yun wanted to discuss business, all the company's top executives arrived.

"Please, Mr. Lin."

Zhao Weidong gestured for him to enter and smiled.

"We have already reserved a private table at Ronghuaxuan Chinese Restaurant and are just waiting for you."

"Ah."

Lin Shen nodded slightly, and then walked into the hotel surrounded by a group of people.

Other passersby couldn't help but look on with surprise.

Being surrounded by so many people indicates that the other person is of high status and should at least be a successful middle-aged man.

They might even have political connections.

But who would have thought that the person surrounded was a handsome guy who was a head taller than everyone around him?
When did celebrities start having such a grand entrance?
Passersby were stunned, and even when Lin Shen and his group entered the elevator, they all made way for them.

After all, any one of these people looks like someone you shouldn't mess with.

After arriving on the 36th floor, the group was greeted by an extra-large private room in the center.

Its interior is luxuriously decorated and the environment is elegant, making it a good place for a midday banquet.

At this moment, each seat was set with an exquisite plate, and each seat was occupied by a waitress in a cheongsam.

They were all tall and slender, with exquisite makeup, and looked quite young, with a constant smile on their faces.

Welcome, distinguished guest!

After Lin Shen and his guests entered, the waitresses, dressed in cheongsams, led them to their seats one by one.

They pulled out the chairs, served tea and water—the service was impeccable.

This kind of service is what earns me my 15% service fee!
Sitting in the main seat, Lin Shen couldn't help but complain inwardly. Shen Yun was undoubtedly the one accompanying him on the right, but who would accompany him on the left became a matter of contention among everyone.

However, in the end, Zhao Weidong, the initiator of the banquet, sat to Lin Shen's left and greeted Lin Shen with a smile.

"I heard from President Shen that you only arrived in Nanjing yesterday?"

"Yes."

Lin Shen picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and then said calmly.

"I originally planned to go straight back to Shanghai, but I also have business in Nanjing, so I thought I'd stop by and take a look."

"You mean the Shennan flagship store that's about to open in the Baihu commercial district, right?"

The elegant woman next to Zhao Weidong smiled.

"I went to see it, and the interior decoration is very nice. Coincidentally, I also have a cat at home, so I'll definitely come to support you!"

"Okay."

Lin Shen raised an eyebrow, coughed lightly twice to attract everyone's attention, and then spoke loudly.

"We at Shennan have recently been working on the high-end market and have established an internal Shennan Pet Club. The cats are at least show-quality, and each cat has a dedicated concierge who will provide one-on-one care, medical treatment, and food."

"..."

After hearing what Lin Shen said, everyone looked at each other and fell silent.

This puzzled Lin Shen.

Did I say something wrong?
Originally, Lin Shen only intended to promote his company's services, since the high-end market needs the support of these big shots the most.

But to others, the subtext of Lin Shen's words became:
'I will only discuss business with you if you join our Shennan pet club.'

The reason for this thinking is that people's ideas are relatively outdated and there is a gap between them and modern young people.

They believe that Lin Shen, as the chairman of Shennan, would never become a "salesperson" to promote his own products.

After all, who would lower themselves like that!
But Lin Shen didn't care about any of that, and hadn't even thought about it at all.

In his view, how is it shameful for me to recommend my products to others when they are good?

In an excellent company, the owner must be familiar with the company's products and be able to act as a salesperson to promote them.

This is what an excellent entrepreneur should do.

Otherwise, if you don't understand anything, you will only be deceived by those below you and end up cheating consumers.

Therefore, Lin Shen was somewhat puzzled by the group's reaction.

However, Zhao Weidong was the first to react and laughed heartily twice.

"Of course, no problem! I've heard that Chairman Lin Shennan's pet care services are of high quality, and I can't wait to join your club."

"Yes, yes!"

With Zhao Weidong taking the lead, everyone echoed his sentiments and decided to join Shen Nan's pet club.

This surprised Lin Shen quite a bit.

What the hell!

Are you giving me this much face?
Lin Shen's lips curled up as he experienced for the first time the exhilarating feeling that came with status and position.

Of course, he had done this before when he was in Shennan, but those women were either his favorite subordinates or his women.

The sense of superior status that can be experienced from them is very rare.

But this group of people is different.

They may not have reached the top position in their industry, but they are certainly influential figures in their own companies.

As a result, when such a person is doing business, they still need to smile and drink with you, just like a salesperson.

This gave Lin Shen, who had once been a beast of burden, a strange sense of satisfaction from trampling their identities underfoot.

This is something that tens of millions of dollars can't bring!
In that instant, Lin Shen suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with starting a business.

Although it's a bit tiring, the experience is definitely worth it!

Moreover, with the help of a cracked version of the app, starting a business would be a piece of cake.
"Then I'll thank you in advance."

Lin Shen smiled and everyone echoed his words, telling him not to be so polite.

At this point, the waiters brought the dishes to the table one by one.

In order to leave a good impression on Lin Shen, Zhao Weiguo went through connections to secure a table and a chef, and even had them cook for his table first.

Moreover, every dish is a hearty and substantial one.

Cheese-stuffed E-fu Noodles with Lobster, Matsutake Mushroom and Pork Stew with Conch, Salt-baked Imperial Chicken with Golden Deer...

Each dish was beautifully presented, with a fresh and delicious aroma, making Lin Shen's mouth water.

Meanwhile, Zhao Weidong, standing next to Lin Shen, thoughtfully introduced the name and origin of each dish, even knowing more about them than the waiters. This surprised Lin Shen quite a bit.

"Are you from Nanjing?"

"correct."

Zhao Weidong smiled.

"I have lived in Nanjing all my life."

"Is that so?"

Lin Shen nodded slightly. After all the dishes were served, the door to the private room was closed tightly, and even the curtains were slightly covered with white gauze.

Meanwhile, waitresses dressed in cheongsams gathered around all the guests, helping to serve them food, so Lin Shen didn't need to worry about anything, allowing them to focus on their business.

This made him marvel at how sophisticated the wealthy are these days.

Of course, he's also a rich man.

“I have treasured this Moutai for many years, and I have been waiting for Chairman Lin to come.”

Zhao Weidong conjured up a bottle of Moutai from nowhere and then smiled obsequiously at Lin Shen.

"Why don't you take it home and savor it properly?"

"Need not."

Lin Shenda said generously.

"Have the waiter pour everyone's drinks, and also order some good wine."

"Okay okay."

Zhao Weidong appeared to be smiling, but his heart was bleeding.

This bottle of Moutai will last for several years. It was originally intended to be given to Lin Shen, but he ended up sharing it with everyone as a favor.

One cup per person isn't enough!
If you add some high-end drinks, this dinner will easily cost over 20,000.

Although this amount of money wasn't much to Zhao Weidong, it was still considered one of the higher-end banquets he had ever hosted.

If we don't bring back a big order, it would be a real shame to have spent all that money.

So after Lin Shen had finished eating and drinking, Zhao Weidong, seeing that the atmosphere was good, took the initiative to bring it up.

"Chairman Lin, does Shennan have any plans to produce its own toiletries?"

"Yes, I have."

Lin Shen didn't intend to beat around the bush with Zhao Weidong and spoke frankly with a smile.

"What? Are you planning to volunteer yourself?"

"hey-hey."

Zhao Weidong smiled sheepishly after being caught red-handed, and then proceeded to introduce his factory and products.

For example, how many production lines do they have? Have they manufactured products for major brands of personal care products? Or what innovations have they recently made?

Of course, in order to meet Lin Shen's requirements, Zhao Weidong also emphasized that his company had developed many new formulas for pet care products, some of which were even specially developed for pets.

This made Lin Shen nod in satisfaction.

"It's pretty good."

"I wonder if there's any opportunity for us to collaborate?"

Zhao Weidong refilled Lin Shen's glass and took the opportunity to say what he wanted to say.

Lin Shen smiled and said.

"Of course, no problem!"

!! ?
Zhao Weidong was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed.

Very good!
I actually got a deal with Shennan!

According to Zhao Weidong's recent market research, Shennan, a new company that has only been established for a few months, is rapidly encroaching on the already saturated pet market.

It focuses on being accessible to the general public and targeting lower-tier markets, using the slogan "Everyone can have a pet that will accompany them for life," and has quickly become a wildly popular pet brand in the industry.

Of course, Lin Shen's behind-the-scenes manipulation also played a significant role.

He has already spent millions on advertising alone on Douyin.

Not to mention other e-commerce platforms, whose marketing expenses alone are close to ten million.

Of course, the money spent did have an effect. The "Shennan" brand was immediately imprinted in the minds of all pet owners and occupied an indelible and important place.

Even Zhao Weidong, an outsider to the industry, has seen many advertisements for Shennan.

It wasn't until one day, when he learned from Shen Yun that the owner of the food processing plant, who was worth over 100 million yuan, had also joined Shennan, that he suddenly woke up to reality.

Perhaps a great opportunity is about to unfold before you!

Just as Zhao Weidong was feeling quite pleased with himself, Lin Shen suddenly mentioned something.

"By the way, add my secretary on WeChat and send me the recipe later."

?

Upon hearing this, Zhao Weiguo outwardly smiled apologetically, but inwardly he was furiously complaining.

This is outright robbery!
I worked so hard to get a team to develop this new formula, and you just took it away with a single word?

But if I don't give it to him, won't this big order fall through again?
Therefore, Zhao Weiguo was deeply conflicted.

Lin Shen noticed the awkward change in his expression and chuckled as he rhythmically tapped his fingers on the table.

Upon hearing the voice, Zhao Weiguo noticed that Lin Shen gestured towards him with his lip, a confident and ostentatious smile on his face.

It possesses both the youthful brilliance and the mature composure of an adult.

It can be said that the phrase "spirited and vigorous" was taken to its extreme.

Zhao Weiguo admired Lin Shen deeply and understood his meaning perfectly.

It's nothing more than: name your price.

"Um……"

After a moment of contemplation, Zhao Weidong tentatively extended his open right hand.

"Five hundred thousand?"

?

Upon hearing the price, Lin Shen raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but chuckle.

He really wants to say something right now:

Give you a chance, you are useless!
Of course, this price is already quite in line with Zhao Weidong's expectations, and it might even be higher.

After all, the formulas for personal care products are pretty much the same across different brands. Innovation is simply adding something new, just like conducting a chemistry experiment.

Therefore, while the formula itself has some merit, it's far less valuable than those formulas that are groundbreaking in their time.

In Zhao Weidong's mind, 500,000 was already an outrageous amount.

Lin Shen simply took a sip of his drink and then smiled as he spoke.

"That price is fine then. I'll transfer the money to you now."

"No need! No rush!"

Zhao Weidong clearly didn't expect Lin Shen to be so decisive, transferring 500,000 yuan as if it were just a few dollars to buy a street food snack.

This also proves that he has a very large cash flow.

This made Zhao Weidong curious about Lin Shen's identity, but he couldn't delve into it further.

After all, that's very impolite.

So Zhao Weidong had a sudden inspiration. He used the excuse of needing to urinate to leave the table first, and then went to the bathroom to make a phone call.

"Hey? Old Chen? Yes, it's me, Old Zhao. I missed you, so I'm giving you a call."

"I heard you recruited a group of pretty good people? They're all from the nearby university town, right? Tonight, create a group chat and invite everyone they can. I'm planning to bring a VIP over after dinner, and I'll cover all the expenses."

"Hobbies? I don't know, but you need to know some rules. Don't let them come over all wrapped up like dumplings. Everyone wear stockings and show their legs. You can arrange the rest."

"If we treat this distinguished guest well, perhaps our brothers' days of great success are just around the corner!" (End of Chapter)
