Reborn as a female internet celebrity in a county town

Chapter 116 Cloud Media
Yan Li sensed Shen An'an's attitude.

She had never considered whether Shen An'an was stupid or not.

It's normal to say that she's not exceptionally intelligent, but she's not really stupid either.

She was born with things that others had to work hard to obtain, which led to some of her unconventional ideas.

She simply couldn't control her emotions and was inherently averse to the pain they brought.

Most people experience pain when they encounter various emotions during their growth.

The lack of understanding from family, betrayal in love, and alienation from friends...

It's just that everyone has endured it, or is willing to put in more effort to find solutions.

Shen An'an couldn't avoid the pressure from her family, and the pressure from friendship and love meant she had to choose another path, otherwise she would feel extremely painful.

Even if she was beaten by her own father, she would never tell anyone outside; at most, she would cry in front of Bing Ning.

Although she didn't see Yan Li often each year, her understanding of Yan Li far surpassed that of many others.

She knew that what Yan Li had just said was definitely not true and did not match her understanding of Yan Li.

Yan Li asked, "You know me, and I know you. Something else must have happened to make you so determined. What happened?"

Just because Lin Lang helped her make money?

She's not that superficial.

Lin Lang helping her make money only confirmed to her that Lin Lang was a friend worth having.

Besides, she didn't keep any of the money she earned; she lent it all to Lin Lang.

Shen An'an nodded and said softly, "I'm short of money lately, and I remembered that there was still some in my old securities account, so I thought I'd withdraw it... I remember that account originally had two million, but it was reduced to only six hundred thousand after losses... But when I downloaded the brokerage software and opened the account, I found there was still two million two hundred thousand in it..."

"Yes, the one Lin Lang gave you before was a demo disk."

"you know?"

“I went to see Lin Lang specifically, and that’s when I found out he was my classmate… Otherwise, how could I have just watched you lose so much money?”

Shen Anan: “…”

So she was the last one to find out?
She thought she had finally discovered Lin Lang's little trick.

In their previous interactions, she only felt that Lin Lang was different from others. After helping her make money, he never boasted about it or hinted at wanting benefits.

They later mentioned that they wanted to borrow some US dollars after making a profit.

He didn't even want much, just half of the profit.

It wasn't until Shen An'an discovered the original securities account...

How can I describe that feeling? It was the first time she had ever felt kindness from someone who wasn't a relative.

She never expected that Lin Lang would do so much behind her back just to minimize her financial losses.

Perhaps Lin Lang just wanted her to be more authentic, but the essence of what Lin Lang did was that he was truly considering the issue from his own perspective, rather than trying to trick her into signing a contract and then looking for money later.

Shen An'an knew that human nature was very complex and selfish.

Lin Lang's adherence to principles while also considering his clients deeply moved her.

This alone was enough for her to completely accept Lin Lang's character.

"So, isn't Lin Lang a good person?"

"Yes, he has a serious work attitude, strong execution ability, is principled, and has strong personal abilities..."

"Then don't try to take it from me! I finally found it."

……

Before you know it, it's Monday.

Lin Lang returned to the company after being away for several days and began to deal with some small matters that had accumulated over the past few days.

It mainly consists of applications sent by Bi Xiaofang and some contracts that require his signature.

Furthermore, after more than a week of accumulation, the basic foundation of Li Wanqing's account has been established, and the next step is to drive traffic to her account.

Of course, none of these things are particularly urgent. A delay of three or five days, or even a week or two, will not have a significant impact.

The most important industry is still Tianshui duck farming.

After the market opened, he began to invest small amounts of money to acquire shares.

I held the position for two days last week, and in total, I only bought less than three million.

Moreover, judging from the trading volume of 60 million last Friday, the volume has been gradually increasing.

This indicates that Qin Dong's capital already knows that Yun Yiyi will no longer promote Tianshui duck products, and any further attempts to operate her business are basically futile. They have already begun to flee.

Anyway, there's definitely no problem selling at this price; the previous gains haven't been wiped out yet.

Lin Lang didn't know how many chips they still had, but they definitely had one or two hundred million.

Both He Qiang and I are holding onto them, and we estimate they'll be released this week. After National Day, we should be able to start raising our placards.

The biggest destabilizing factor in this matter is actually Qin Dong.

He still holds 20% of the shares. If he were to dump them at any time, He Qiang wouldn't be able to handle it, and neither would he.

He didn't dare to sell before because he didn't want to cause the market to collapse.

Once He Qiang raises his stake and the competition for chips reaches a fever pitch, he is very likely to choose to dump his shares.

He Qiang's tiered shareholding strategy will definitely drive the stock price up, potentially doubling or even tripling it from its current level.

Qin Dong's dumping of shares can indeed acquire a large number of chips in a short period of time, but the cost is that he has to pay too much money.

To reduce the threat from Qin Dong, the best approach is to extend the entire cycle, which means relinquishing some initiative and preventing market sentiment from following one's own rhythm.

Unexpected changes are possible.

Lin Lang had considered these issues before meeting Song Zhiyuan.

After meeting with Song Zhiyuan, he felt much more at ease.

At least one thing is certain: Song Zhiyuan is not on Qin Dong's side; he is only on Tianshui Duck Industry's side.

He will support whoever can revitalize the Tianshui duck industry.

Song Zhiyuan has a lot of leverage and can even dictate the final outcome.

However, to persuade Song Zhiyuan to stand on his side, something else is needed...

……

On Monday morning, Song Zhiyuan arrived at Tianshui Duck Industry.

Qin Dong stayed by his side.

After looking around, Song Zhiyuan got straight to the point: "President Qin, it's almost the end of the month. Haven't the salaries for last month at Tianshui Duck Industry been paid yet?" Qin Dong quickly replied: "Boss, last night we asked the finance department to speed up the settlement process. Even though the funds in the account haven't arrived yet, I personally advanced the funds, and all the employees' salaries have been paid."

"Oh? Didn't I hear you sold over 30 million yuan worth of goods through live streaming, but the funds haven't arrived yet?"

"The leader may not know this, but those were sold on e-commerce platforms. Because of the logistics and confirmation periods, the platform's funds arrive relatively slowly. Plus, there are quite a few returns, and it also involves donations..."

Qin Dong easily found an excuse for himself.

No matter what, Yun Yiyi simply refused to continue promoting Tianshui duck products and even started her own company, Yunshang Media.

This left him with no other choice. The company account was finally about to receive a sum of money, so he was determined to keep it and find an opportunity to cash it out.

Unexpectedly, the employees filed a complaint with the city authorities.

Leaving aside the fact that he could still find a way to delay the lawsuit, he did have someone investigate Dayu Media's taxes. Somehow, Song Zhiyuan found out about this, and someone told him yesterday at noon that Song Zhiyuan had made a harsh statement about it.

He quickly distributed the employees' salaries to prevent Song Zhiyuan from using the situation as an excuse to cause trouble.

Even if they are two unrelated things, if Song Zhiyuan pursues them to the end, the consequences will be unbearable.

Song Zhiyuan nodded. "I know that the Tianshui duck industry is not doing well right now, so I plan to develop a self-media business in the county. I hope to use the self-media platform to help the Tianshui duck industry find more sales channels."

"I'm sorry to have troubled you, boss. It's my fault for not doing a good job with the company."

"I came here today to ask about the current situation of Tianshui Duck Industry and its future plans."

"That's right. Our company's products don't have much brand recognition, and we don't have traditional distribution channels. So, our main focus going forward is to move towards fresh produce and down products. I've already contacted a few companies, and we should be able to finalize the contracts in a while."

Tianshui Duck Industry used to have a stable business, which was duck down.

Duck down is a raw material. Although the price is transparent and the profit is not high, it is a moat industry. You never have to worry about not being able to sell it. There are just some fluctuations.

However, two years ago, Tianshui Duck Industry suffered losses due to some problems in the breeding industry.

In addition, he kept siphoning money off the company, which caused cash flow problems. Fearing that the company's stock would be delisted due to continuous losses, he outsourced the asset-heavy aquaculture business, only charging a few million yuan in rent each year.

In this way, a money-losing project was immediately revitalized.

The cost was a decrease in revenue, but the company made money, and the profit margin rose sharply.

Although the company's market value has been declining due to the loss of its raw material business, which served as a competitive advantage, at least there's no need to worry about delisting...

Moreover, having only the cooked food business left provided him with fertile ground for falsifying accounts.

Upon hearing this, Song Zhiyuan asked, "Is Tianshui Duck Industry going to restart its duck farming operations?"

"Yes, once the funds arrive in a while, the company will set up several breeding farms..."

Preparing a breeding farm is equivalent to adding new assets to the company, which also allows them to borrow money from the bank.

Song Zhiyuan's face was very ugly because... this kind of trouble was not a solution at all.

He wasn't here when Tianshui Duck Industry outsourced its breeding operations; if he had been, he definitely wouldn't have agreed.

After all, the county government is also one of the major shareholders, holding a total of 15% of the shares.

Although he couldn't stop the final decision, Qin Dong had to consider expressing his stance.

When he arrived, Tianshui Duck Industry had already lost its core business.

That son of a bitch Qin Dong is trying to scam money again!
……

Song Zhiyuan left with a stern face.

Qin Dong didn't mind; he was just saying it to express his attitude.

If Song Zhiyuan really puts pressure on him, then he'll do it!
Let's just keep messing around.

Moreover, Song Zhiyuan won't stay here for long; at the very least, it will be two or three years, and at most five years.

The next one will definitely not be as troublesome as Song Zhiyuan.

He didn't care about Song Zhiyuan at all; it was just polite talk on the surface.

His biggest dilemma right now is whether or not to continue making the donations he promised.

After all, with Yun Yiyi no longer selling products, Tianshui Duck Industry is beyond saving.

As the boss, he was well aware of the current situation of Tianshui Duck Industry. It was already insolvent, and no matter how much they squeezed, it would be difficult to extract much profit.

That's over thirty million...

As long as those few hundred employees are settled, it won't be a big deal if the company goes bankrupt.

He called Qin Haiyang: "Have you talked to Yunshang Media yet? We're talking about investing in them."

Since the Tianshui duck industry is beyond saving, he will have to go to another industry.

With Lin Lang as an example, he felt that the media industry was not bad either.

Anyway, Yun Yiyi's side has its own traffic.

Internet celebrities are useful; at least they have a high level of recognition. If they encounter any trouble, they can seek support online, and others will not dare to act rashly.

"She doesn't want us to invest..."

"You're getting married soon, you'll be family. Besides, how can a pregnant woman manage to manage everything?"

“Dad, I’ve said everything you asked me to say… She said she wants to cooperate with Big Fish Media, and we don’t need to pay anything.”

Upon hearing "Big Fish Media," Qin Dong felt a surge of rage: "Big Fish Media again! Is she one of our people or one of Big Fish Media? What exactly is her relationship with Lin Lang?"

Just then, a woman's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Dad, Lin Lang and I are just friends. If you have any doubts, I'll go to the hospital for a non-invasive prenatal DNA test after I'm twelve weeks pregnant. If the child isn't from your Qin family, I'll pack my clothes and leave, and I definitely won't cause any trouble for your Qin family."

Upon hearing Yun Yiyi's voice, Qin Dong immediately went numb.

How could Qin Haiyang, that bastard, let Yun Yiyi hear him answering the phone?
He quickly explained, "Yiyi, you misunderstood. I didn't mean to distrust you. It's just that I've been busy with work lately and felt dizzy just now. I didn't mean anything by it."

"Yes, I understand Dad's recent mood, but for everyone's sake, I will take the initiative to do the psychiatric evaluation when the time is right. As for Yunshang Media, without Lin Lang, it is worthless, and I hope you can understand that."

"Mmm, I understand. By the way, are you coming home for dinner tonight?"

"I need to film some videos with Lin Lang this afternoon, and I'm too tired to go back."

"Okay, tell your family as soon as anything happens, and don't overwork yourself, your health is the most important thing."

……

After hanging up the phone, Qin Dong left the company with a gloomy face.

Qin Haiyang is completely finished!
Marrying Yun Yiyi means there's absolutely no hope of achieving anything great in the future.

If the family fortune is left to him, Yun Yiyi will swindle it all away sooner or later.

Go back and transfer all the assets that were previously under Qin Haiyang's name, while the two of them are still not married.

In the future, we should focus on cultivating our youngest son.
