121: The cooperation has been reached, with an investment of over 100 million!

Both of them were people of action who would leave at a moment's notice.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to build their company to its current level.

Taking the earliest flight, the two returned to their long-missed hometown.

After getting off the plane at Terminal 3.

Wang Ning looked at everything ahead, feeling a sense of emotion in his heart: "The development of Zheng County over the past two years is truly immense!"

Yang Tao leaned against Wang Ning's side.

Having been with him since their college days, experiencing campus entrepreneurship together, and then selling off their small business to resolutely decide to head to the capital to start a new venture, Yang Tao knew the confusion in the heart of the person beside her all too well.

Because even now, their core model was not yet clear; they were just following the trend, engaged in loft-style retail.

She held Wang Ning's hand and whispered: "Don't worry, Brother Ning, we will succeed!"

This time, heading to Zheng County to meet the legendary Brother Lin, Wang Ning felt a little nervous.

However, looking at the person beside him, he felt slightly more settled.

On the plane, he had crammed on all the various deeds of Brother Lin.

The more he read, the more shocked he became!

At the beginning of the year, he was still a work-study student at school, but in less than a year, he had built a business empire that was now rumored to be worth billions, with a scale reaching tens of billions.

These things could be corroborated by countless details on their school's forum, making them absolutely true.

It was precisely because of this reality that Wang Ning felt a bit dizzy.

For him, this kind of suddenly enlightened prodigy was absolutely a dimensional strike.

"Let's go, let's go see this prodigy, let's go see this fellow townsman of ours!"

Downstairs at Junlin Finance.

After Wang Ning and his wife explained their purpose at the front desk, they were led to the conference room.

By this time, it was almost evening.

Wang Lin pushed open the door and saw the two sitting there, looking quite nervous.

Seeing Wang Lin push the door and enter, Wang Ning and his wife stood up instantly: "Mr. Wang!"

Wang Lin smiled and waved his hand, saying: "Sit, sit. We both share the surname Wang; perhaps we were the same family hundreds of years ago. If you call me Mr. Wang, shouldn't I also call you Mr. Wang?"

This made Wang Ning feel a bit panicked.

His current net worth—oh, no, that's not right—his company's valuation was only 80 million at best.

As for his personal net worth, that would have to be discounted.

Moreover, the cash flow he personally possessed was pitifully small.

In contrast, Wang Lin was definitely a solid cash cow.

His company's scale had now exceeded tens of billions, and Wang Lin's personal net worth was at least several billion.

As for Wang Lin's cash flow, one could only say that for those who trade stocks, everything is cash!

If he wanted to withdraw it, it would only take a day!

Wang Ning had a wry smile on his face: "Then I will call you Brother Lin; this name is now resounding through the stock market!"

"I heard you are interested in our company!"

From this, it was clear that Wang Ning was in desperate need of this funding.

He brought the topic to the main point in just two sentences.

Wang Lin didn't expose him; he smiled, sat down, and said: "Yes! You also know that in the past few months, the money in my hands has expanded too rapidly, and the current stock market is almost unable to bear the volume of my capital."

"Investing in the primary market might be a good choice!"

"If I were to say where it is better to invest, I would naturally prefer our local enterprises in Yu Province!"

"But apart from Snow King, I actually couldn't find any other more suitable company. And although your company is not in Yu Province, you are from here—you understand what I mean, right?"

How could Wang Ning not understand this?

Those cliques in the south, this group and that group, aren't they all like this?

Could it be that they in Yu Province were also going to have such a 'Yu Province Clique'?!"

Wang Lin looked at Wang Ning's somewhat excited expression and continued to smile, saying: "Speaking of which, you and I are both from Yu Province, and even from Xiangxiang City."

Once these words were spoken, the message of goodwill released could not have been more obvious.

Yang Tao's eyes lit up instantly; only then did she feel that a person's background could sometimes be so important!

Qian Shan, the chief steward of Junlin Finance sitting behind Wang Lin, sighed upon hearing this.

He didn't understand why Mr. Wang had taken a fancy to this Bubble Blind Box; based on current information, this company didn't have much investment value.

But judging by the current valuation, investing in this company wouldn't cost much at all, not even one-thousandth of what the boss had earned in the stock market this time.

Or to put it another way, even the car the boss bought for over 20 million was probably more expensive than this investment.

Furthermore, he didn't dare to offer any advice at all.

He understood his position: helping Wang Lin manage this company well and ensuring it could operate normally—that was his role!

As for external expansion, stock selection, and investment, these core matters were all decided by Wang Lin.

No one had the qualifications, nor did they dare, to direct him.

Come to think of it, today's meeting was more like a large-scale family reunion.

Wang Lin didn't understand Bubble Blind Box, nor did he know why it would become popular in the future.

Even for the very popular Labubu later on, he really didn't understand it.

Such a small doll, yet the premium was so high.

But he didn't need to understand; as long as there were consumers willing to pay, that was enough.

So now, while Wang Ning was still small, he would invest in him!

It could also be considered giving a chance to the brothers from Yu Province who had come out to make a living!

"In May of this year, Qifu Capital invested 6 million in you, with a market valuation of 80 million!"

"Today, I can offer a valuation of 100 million and invest 10 million in your company!"

Just by sitting together and chatting for a few moments, Wang Lin offered an investment of 10 million, incidentally raising their company's valuation by another 20 million.

This is capital!

If you don't pull and I don't pull, how can the valuation go up?

Upon hearing this, Wang Ning stood up abruptly, his eyes wide open.

"Really!?"

"Really!"

Wang Lin smiled and signaled for Wang Ning to sit down: "It couldn't be more real!"

"If you really can't believe it, you can also understand it this way: the money invested in you this time is not even as expensive as the sports car I just received."

"Still the same words as before: just treat it as me using this money to invest in a guarantee for our brothers from Yu Province who have gone out to build their careers!"

"Of course, I still want that 10% stake!!"

These words drew roars of laughter.

The atmosphere suddenly became lively.

10 million.

Qian Shan, sitting in the back, quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

It was only 10 million; the boss would probably earn that much in a little while.

As for Wang Ning, who was dazed by happiness, he only felt the aftereffects were extremely intense.

It took him a long time to recover, and then he hurriedly stood up, came before Wang Lin, and shook his hands vigorously.

"Brother Lin, thank you so much!"

"I don't know about other things, but I know that every penny of a capitalist will not be wasted."

"You bought a sports car for emotional value, but by investing in our company, I assure you, I will never let down your trust!"

"I won't let your investment go down the drain!!"

At the end of November 2013, as night fell, Wang Ning said this.
