After leaving Star Group, he went directly to Pearl Private Bank.

General Manager Chen and Chen Wen were already waiting in the office.

"Chairman Shen."

General Manager Chen handed him a financial report: "Shen Jianjun's loan funds have been basically used up."

"He purchased fifteen complete sets of mining equipment in full, including crushing, screening, loading, and transportation equipment."

"The cost of equipment, site fees, and initial labor has already exceeded six billion yuan."

Chen Wen continued, "The site selection for all fifteen sand pits has also been completed."

"Some equipment has already been installed and tested. According to their schedule, full-scale operation will be possible in about a week."

The 6.9 billion yuan loan was almost entirely poured into it.

Shen Jianjun has no way back now. As long as the sand mine loses its sales channels, the equipment and site will become a heavy burden.

"Does Northwest Industry have a large demand for sand and gravel recently?"

Chen Wen immediately nodded: "Yes."

"Their chairman is Qian Hui, who has several large projects that require long-term procurement of sand and gravel."

"very good."

Shen Ze looked at him: "Go and contact Qian Hui, and introduce him to Shen Jianjun."

"Have both parties sign a large-scale sand and gravel supply contract."

Chen Wen quickly understood his meaning: "Should we secure Shen Jianjun with large orders first, and get him to put all fifteen sand quarries into production?"

"right."

Shen Ze said calmly, "Once he invests his last remaining working capital into mining, transportation, and labor, the new mineral control policy will be implemented."

"By then, he couldn't sell a single grain of sand."

Chen Wen's heart tightened.

With an investment of over 6 billion yuan in equipment, plus subsequent production costs, Jianjun Group will not even be able to afford loan interest if its sales channels are completely cut off.

"I'll take care of it right away."

"The funds that Qian Hui needs can be provided by Mingzhu Private Bank."

"clear."

After dealing with the bank matters, Shen Ze returned to Xingchen Group.

At this time, the rumors circulating in the company about Yu Binglan living with him had become increasingly outrageous.

Some say the two are just in the throes of new love, while others say the Yu family would never allow Yu Binglan to get married so quickly.

The door to the chairman's office was opened in the afternoon.

Shen Ze accompanied Yu Binglan into the office area.

The moment the two appeared, the employees who had been whispering fell silent.

Yu Binglan was still dressed in a well-tailored business suit, with a cool and aloof expression.

Shen Ze was carrying a large bag of wedding candy.

The head of the secretariat looked puzzled: "Chairman Yu, what's this?"

Shen Ze placed the two marriage certificates on the table and opened them directly.

Inside the bright red identification document, the photo of the two people and the official seal are clearly visible.

"Just to officially inform you, your Chairman Yu and I have registered our marriage."

"We are not boyfriend and girlfriend, nor are we in a normal cohabitation relationship as rumored outside."

She is my legal wife.

The entire office area was silent for a few seconds, then erupted in chaos.

"They really got married!"

"We have the marriage certificate, how could it be fake?"

"Chairman Yu is really already Mrs. Shen!"

Several female employees gathered around, looking at the photo on the ID card with envy on their faces.

"This wedding photo is so beautiful."

"Mr. Shen is now the youngest top investor in Daxia, and Chairman Yu is the chairman of Xingchen Group. They're such a perfect match!"

"No wonder Chairman Yu has been much gentler these past few days."

An employee who had just been speculating about the relationship between the two blushed and quickly lowered his head.

Shen Ze didn't mind and handed out the wedding candies one by one: "Everyone who sees this gets one."

"Thank you, Mr. Shen!"

"No, you should call him the chairman's husband."

"Let's just call him Chairman Shen. Douxin is at its peak right now, who would dare treat Mr. Shen as an ordinary family member?"

"With a single-day transaction volume of 2.6 billion, Antal actively expanded production and also paid the platform commission of 15% as per the contract."

"In the current domestic short video industry, which company can still compete with Douyin?"

The surrounding employees became more and more excited as they talked.

The news that Douyin's daily active users had exceeded 80 million spread throughout the city that day.

Following the success of the first live stream, more celebrities, live streamers, and brands flocked to join the platform.

Antara even expanded its production capacity overnight, proactively replenished its inventory, and paid its commissions on time as agreed.

Douyin's daily transaction volume surged to 2.6 billion yuan, firmly establishing its position as the leader in the short video industry.

From acquiring a nearly bankrupt platform for 200 million yuan to controlling the entire live-streaming e-commerce gateway, Shen Ze only took a very short time.

Major investment institutions in Shanghai have publicly referred to him as "the youngest top investor in the Great Wall".

The businessmen who questioned him yesterday are now vying to see him.

Yu Binglan stood to the side, watching Shen Ze distribute wedding candies, a faint smile always on her cool face.

On the other hand, the scene at Shen Jianjun's home was completely different.

The couple had a cold war all night after returning home last night.

Sun Mei locked herself in her room and didn't even eat dinner.

Although Shen Jianjun was furious, after calming down, he realized that now was not the time for internal strife.

He pushed open the door and asked, "Are you still angry?"

Sun Mei, with her back to him, said, "The whole thing that made me so upset is my fault. Why did you come looking for me?"

"I acted on impulse last night."

Shen Jianjun sat down next to her: "What's done is done, there's no point in arguing anymore."

"Even if Douxin makes money, it will still belong to Shen Ze. Our most important project right now is the sand mining project."

Sun Mei finally turned around: "Is it really possible to turn things around?"

"Of course."

Shen Jianjun said firmly, "Fifteen sand pits will start construction soon. As long as we find stable buyers, the net profit per day can exceed ten million."

"More than 3 billion a year, it won't take more than a few years for us to make back all the losses."

"Douyin is just an internet project; who knows how long it will stay popular? Sand and gravel are the real resources."

Upon hearing this, Sun Mei's expression finally softened: "The 6.9 billion loan from Mingzhu Private Bank is almost used up."

"What are you afraid of?"

Shen Jianjun grasped her hand: "All the equipment has been purchased, and the venue has been selected."

"Once construction officially begins, the money will come back quickly."

The couple once again pinned all their hopes for a turnaround on the sand mining project.

They were already fantasizing that after the first payment arrived, Jianjun Group's stock price would rebound, banks would proactively renew loans, and partners who had previously distanced themselves from them would come knocking on their door again.

As for the upcoming mineral resource control policies, they have not received any information whatsoever.

In the afternoon, Chen Wen arrived at Shen Jianjun's doorstep with the prepared materials.

After the maid opened the door, he straightened his suit and stepped into the living room.

Upon seeing him, Shen Jianjun immediately stood up: "Manager Chen, what brings you here?"

Chen Wen placed the documents on the coffee table: "President Shen, I've come here today to introduce you to a big business deal."

"Chairman Qian Hui of Northwest Industry needs to purchase large quantities of sand and gravel on a long-term basis."

As soon as Chen Wen finished speaking, Shen Jianjun quickly picked up the documents on the table.

Sun Mei, forgetting her anger, quickly leaned closer: "Long-term purchase? How much exactly?"

Chen Wen held up three fingers: "Three hundred million tons."

The document in Shen Jianjun's hand trembled violently: "How much?"

"Three hundred million tons of sand and gravel."

Chen Wen flipped to the key page of the purchase intention letter: "Northwest Industry has several large-scale projects underway, which will require a large amount of sand and gravel in the next few years. Chairman Qian has inspected many suppliers, but those companies are too small to provide a stable supply."

"I recommended Jianjun Group to him."
