Chapter 90 Chapter 90 Oriental Pearl Tower
Lin Anran thought that it would take her a long time to convince Yang Liang and Lu Hong, but she didn't expect it to be so easy.
She could withdraw her investment and leave with a large sum of money, but she had to take Yang Liang and Lu Hong with her. Otherwise, if she left these two cousins behind, she would definitely lose all her profits in the end and might even be in debt. She was not a conscienceless person. Yang Liang and Lu Hong had their reasons for coming to Qiongzhou.
She asked in surprise, "Second cousin, are you guys just going to agree to this?"
Yang Liang and Lu Hong both nodded. "We came to the Qiongzhou Economic Development Zone thanks to your connections. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have a say in this company."
Lü Hong scoffed, "An Ran, without you, we might have been squeezed out of our current positions long before the company was profitable. Even now, there are still many people eyeing our positions."
Lin Anran was stunned for a moment. She touched the tip of her nose. She only knew about this after Brother Lu hinted at it. But after thinking about it, she understood that when a company makes money, the investors above will definitely want to have a greater say. If Yang Liang and Lu Hong did not leave, but stayed instead, even if Brother Lu supported them, their work would probably not be as smooth as it is now.
Although everyone understood, no one could stop Lin Anran's decision.
"I must withdraw my investment. My base is in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, and I will focus on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in the future. How this company will develop in the future depends on the bosses of the company." Lin Anran said lightly. She did not make any promises to Yang Liang and Lu Hong. There was no need to take on too much. Besides, Yang Liang and Lu Hong were not the same people they used to be. They had already grown in this company.
"An Ran, we listen to your instructions. We can make money if we listen to your advice." Yang Liang suddenly said.
Lv Hong: "You are our God of Wealth, we will follow you."
ah?
Lin Anran blinked. She was the God of Wealth? How could she not know this?
But seeing the expressions of Yang Liang and Lv Hong, she didn't ask for further information. She just said, "I'll have to trouble my second cousin and his wife later."
"Don't worry, leave it to us." Yang Liang said, patting his chest.
The three of them discussed the company's situation and basically agreed to withdraw their investment. Yang Liang finally looked at Lin Anran and asked her, "Anran, tell me the truth, are you pessimistic about the future development of the Qiongzhou Economic Development Zone? We all say that the Qiongzhou Economic Development Zone is now the second Shenzhen. They are both special economic zones, strongly supported by the state. Those who first went to Shenzhen to develop have made money. How bad can the Qiongzhou Economic Development Zone be?"
Even though he decided to follow Lin Anran, Yang Liang was still puzzled. Over the years, he had traveled to many places across the country and met many people. After thinking about it privately, he came to a conclusion: only by following the national policies could one make money. Now that the Qiongzhou Economic Development Zone has received strong support from the country, it seems that the government wants to build the Qiongzhou Economic Development Zone into the second Shenzhen.
Lin Anran was silent for a moment, then she slowly said, "Compared to the Economic Development Zone in Qiongzhou, I'm more optimistic about the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone." She couldn't reveal any policy changes, so she could only half-speak. "The Shenzhen Special Economic Zone has been developing for so many years, while the Qiongzhou Economic Development Zone has only been open for less than a year. The housing price difference between the two places is so huge, I don't think something is right."
Yang Liang and Lv Hong paused in thought. Honestly, seeing the skyrocketing housing prices in Qiongzhou, for example, if a piece of land were bought and then flipped a dozen times, it would be sold at a sky-high price. If things kept going that way, everyone would be making money. How could people not be jealous? Even though their company could make a lot of money, they were both nervous at first, but as they dealt with it so many times, they gradually got used to it.
After all, Yang Liang and Lu Hong were both from the countryside, having been poor for decades. They were overjoyed to suddenly become rich, but they were also worried. After all, some of the money they earned was not secure. They had not done anything illegal, but they felt uneasy deep down. Now that Lin Anran was planning to withdraw his investment, they felt that something was wrong.
"I used to take on projects in Shenzhen and get paid after they were completed. Although I didn't earn as much as I do now, I was excited and happy when I got the money. I didn't feel nervous or anxious at all. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. The company gave us bonuses, but after I got the money, I dreamed that the money disappeared." Lu Hong laughed at herself.
Yang Liang opened his mouth and nodded: "Didn't we pool our money and invest a little? The dividends are higher than our salary and bonuses. This is the first time I feel that making money is so easy."
"Maybe you will make more money in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in the future, and then you will get used to it and count money until your hands cramp." Lin Anran joked to liven up the atmosphere.
"An Ran, I plan to ask Lao Lu if he wants to withdraw. Lao Lu said at the beginning that he still wanted to focus on developing his construction company in Shenzhen, but now he is spending more and more time in Qiongzhou. Lao Lu is the leader of this company, but his investment is not the largest. Several investors have invested more money than him. Now his words are not as effective as they were at the beginning." Yang Liang sighed that doing business is really not easy. It is difficult not to make money, and it is also difficult to make money.
Lv Hong: "He plans to increase his investment so that he can become the biggest boss of this company."
Yang Liang rubbed his face and said, "Yeah, Lao Lu said he founded the company, how could he just let it go?"
Lin Anran thought of Brother Lu. He was indeed a reliable partner. Working with someone like him, there was no need to worry about him running away with the money. "Second cousin, you can ask around. Brother Lu's construction company in Shenzhen has great development prospects. It's not easy to have your cake and eat it too."
Yang Liang thought for a moment and said, "I'll have a good talk with him."
Lv Hong said to Lin Anran, "If you withdraw your investment and leave, your second cousin and I will also take our people and leave. Old Lu's situation will be even more difficult. Old Lu helped us make a fortune. We can't cheat him before we leave. We have to have a thorough discussion with him before we disclose our withdrawal of investment and the sale of shares to the public."
Lin Anran said, "It should be."
Yang Liang and Lu Hong did not delay and invited Brother Lu to their home for dinner that night. Lin Anran also came to eat. Zhou Heyuan was left in the army by his second brother and had not returned. She was alone in the hotel with no one to play with.
It's easy to start a conversation at the dinner table. Brother Lu, halfway through his glass of wine, couldn't help but say, "It's going to be tough for the company to increase its investment this time. Those investors plan to hold more shares in the company. If I don't follow up, I'll have no say in the company in the future. Sister-in-law Lao Yang, Boss Lin, you're on my side. Will you stick with me? If I, Lao Lu, make money, you guys will definitely contribute."
Lin Anran drank the soda that Lu Hong prepared specially for her, looked at Yang Liang who looked guilty across from her, lowered her head and took another sip of soda without saying a word.
Not getting a response, Brother Lu looked up at the other three in confusion and asked, "Didn't you hear what I just said? Let me say it again—"
"Old Lu, wait a minute," Yang Liang saw that Brother Lu's glass was empty, and poured him another glass of wine, "I'll fill it up for you."
"You're welcome, brother," Lu Ge said happily. He picked up the wine glass and drank it. Then he put it down and looked carefully at the expression on Yang Liang's face. "Old Yang, what's wrong with you telling me? We're brothers. What's wrong with you telling me? It's okay if you don't want to follow up. It's no problem. Come on, I'll pour you a glass."
Yang Liang picked up his glass and drank it in one gulp. Then he said, "Not only do we not plan to follow up with the investment, we also plan to sell our shares and return to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange for development."
Brother Lu was stunned, his eyes wide open. "So, you guys are planning to leave the company? Go back to Shenzhen? Boss Lin, is that your plan too?"
"Yes." Lin Anran nodded very decisively.
Brother Lu: “…”
Brother Lu silently took a few chopsticks of food to suppress the smell of alcohol in his mouth, but he couldn't taste the food: "It's too sudden. Thank you very much for telling me about this first. Lao Yang, you are a brother."
Yang Liang sighed, and Brother Lu suddenly looked up and said, "I'll buy out your shares."
Lin Anran put down his chopsticks and asked bluntly, "Boss Lu, isn't your development focus in Shenzhen?"
Now it was Brother Lu's turn to sigh: "Forget it." The company's shares are not cheap now. To buy both parties' shares, he needs to prepare at least 10 million. He does not have so much cash. Even if he did, he cannot invest it all in this real estate company in Qiongzhou. Brother Lu is still very clear-headed. Moreover, if Yang Liang and his wife leave the company, it is like he has lost his left arm and right arm, and it will be difficult for him to do anything.
After dinner, Brother Lu took Yang Liang to the balcony to talk. Lu Hong whispered to Lin Anran, "Old Lu probably hasn't given up yet, but your second cousin and I will listen to you." Lu Hong was not worried at all that her husband would be persuaded because they believed in the God of Wealth.
Lin Anran also thought that she was the God of Wealth in the eyes of the two people, and she was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry, but she was very relieved. Let him be the God of Wealth.
The company's affairs were temporarily over, and Lin Anran didn't care about them anymore. She took Zhou Heyuan, who had returned, to go sightseeing. Qiongzhou was a tourist destination. Although it was not as fun as in the future, there were still many attractions and projects to enjoy. For example, their hotel provided yachts to take guests out to sea for fun, and they could also go sea fishing and surfing. Lin Anran had a great time, and she had more fun with Zhou Heyuan accompanying her.
If they hadn't made plans before leaving Shenzhen, she would have stayed in Qiongzhou for a few more days. But Zhou Heyuan was going to Shanghai to work, so of course Lin Anran had to follow him. She had long wanted to see Shanghai in this era. Shenzhen was developing rapidly, but Shanghai was not far behind. This city had a unique charm.
Lin Anran was very happy again after taking a flight from Guangzhou to Shanghai. It turned out that flying was really fast.
This international metropolis will be known as the Oriental Pearl in the future. The Oriental Pearl Radio and Television Tower has not yet started construction, but Shanghai is still one of the largest and most prosperous cities in the country. After getting off the plane, Lin Anran looked around left and right, very curious.
There were no tall buildings and it looked rather simple. Lin Anran couldn't help showing some surprise in her eyes. If she didn't know the future, she really couldn't imagine that Shanghai would become such a prosperous magic city in the future.
"Curious?" Zhou Heyuan asked her.
Lin Anran turned around and looked at him: "I'm very curious, I haven't seen it before."
Zhou Heyuan: "I'll take you around."
"We can play together when you are free. You can finish your work first and I can go out and play for a while." Lin Anran said that he is not very clingy.
Zhou Heyuan had no choice but to go along with her, as he did have important work to do in Shanghai this time.
Lin Anran did not stay in a hotel. Shanghai was still unfamiliar to her. No matter from which perspective, living in her boyfriend's house was the best choice. Zhou Heyuan lived in an old villa in Shanghai with many rooms, so she could choose any one she wanted.
Old villa, Lin Anran rubbed her hands and laughed in her heart. Old villas will be valuable in the future, and she will buy one if she has the chance.
