Chapter 239 Clear Boundaries
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Li Yuan took Song Jiajia to visit the night market in the county town.
Even in the coldest months of winter, it is still very lively because of the New Year atmosphere, and all kinds of shops are open.
When they were almost done with the shopping, Song Jiajia found a corner and said to Li Yuan, "What on earth do you want to do? My dad said you want to withdraw the funds in Song's shares? If you want to withdraw, just withdraw. Why do you have to tell him?"
Li Yuan: “…”
There is no way he can withdraw. The transaction cannot be carried out for half a year after the placard is raised. Even if it is transferred to someone else, is there anyone willing to take over at this point in time?
Everyone went there for his fame. If he were to leave, anyone who took over would be mentally ill.
To put it bluntly, Song’s shares are only valuable because of the concept of love with Li Yuan, and are of no use at all in other aspects.
He guessed that Song Dalong had found such an excuse, so there was no need for him to expose him.
"I can't help it. You are so indifferent to me. I can only use some tricks."
Song Jiajia was stunned. "Li Yuan, are you sure you are telling the truth? Why should I ignore you? If you want to have a serious relationship, I would not refuse even if I am not crazy. But do you?"
"No, I just want to sleep with you..."
“Get lost!”
Song Jiajia was really fed up with this kind of directness.
Who does Li Yuan think he is? He doesn't even bother to lie?
After saying this, Song Jiajia prepared to leave.
Li Yuan's voice came from behind: "I really want to withdraw my investment from Song's shares, and Song's shares will soon be worthless. You should not doubt that I have the ability to bankrupt Song's shares, right?"
Song Jiajia stopped, stamped her feet, turned around and went back silently.
"Do we have to end up in such an embarrassing situation?"
Li Yuan: "It's not awkward, aren't we having a good time together?"
"You call this pleasant?"
"Isn't it? Song's shares have become a hot topic, and the stock price has risen. Your father is happy, and I am happy. From beginning to end, you didn't lose anything. I didn't even touch your hand. If there is still a loss, I can only say... it's not me."
"You just said you wanted..."
"Hey, you can't even think about it? It's not against the law for me to think about it. How about this, I'll officially announce the breakup right away?"
Song Jiajia sighed and said, "Let's do this for now. I'll buy you whatever you want to eat."
"Yeah, buy some skewers and feed them to me."
Song Jiajia didn't say anything and went to a nearby stall silently.
Li Yuan has already planned it out.
There are not many Song shares in circulation now because the Song family holds too many.
Song Dalong holds 39%, and his brothers and sisters hold 26 % in total. Plus the 5% held by Song Jiajia's grandfather, the total is 70%.
The brokerage firm holds 10% and the circulating shares are only 20%
He also held stakes for more than 5% of these circulating shares, so only a little more than 14% were actually circulating.
By March, it will be time for the first share reduction, and someone from the Song family will definitely reduce their holdings.
This point should be high.
However, afterwards, he would announce his breakup with Song Jiajia and start reducing his holdings.
As he reduces his holdings, the stock price will inevitably plummet, and the Song family will have no chance to reduce their holdings.
That was the best time for me to enter the market.
It just so happens that with the impact of the African swine fever, it would not be a big problem to inject capital into Song’s shares and acquire 30% of the shares.
First, let the Song family taste some sweetness, and secondly, there is no need for him to have any unpleasantness with the Song family. The Song family cannot find any fault with him throughout the whole process.
If we hadn't gone through this relationship operation, when the African swine fever came, someone would have taken advantage of the situation to rob the Song family's stocks, and they would definitely feel uncomfortable.
Besides, what do you want to do with 30% of the stocks? Basically, the Song family will define you as an enemy.
Now, through speculation, the Song family can cash out part of it, at least five to ten points.
After the number of circulating shares in the market increases, he can inject more capital himself. Even if he can only get 20% of the shares, the Song shares will almost fall into his hands.
Reducing the Song family's shareholding in the company is good for him and also good for market operations.
Li Yuan had no reason to refuse this kind of money that could be earned without much thinking.
It’s nothing more than creating some news and eventually making tens of billions. It’s so easy.
Now Li Yuan can't consider the overall situation and can only consider himself.
Make money for yourself first.
He deserves the money. Without him, even if Song’s shares could hold out until the good market conditions next year and the year after, they would only double or triple in value. Five times would be a luxury.
Anyway, this year, he has been relying on dating to maintain his popularity. There is nothing fun about A-shares, and QDII funds cannot be made public.
At around eleven o'clock, Li Yuan accompanied Song Jiajia to the hotel and stayed there for half an hour before leaving.
After returning home, I saw that my parents had not yet gone to bed and there were a lot of things around the house.
Although they are not worth much, my parents still made a special count.
You don’t have to worry about the gifts given to your grandparents, but you must return the gifts given to your parents.
After he came back, Zhou Juan glanced at him.
Li Wanhe came to Li Yuan's room and whispered, "What did you do this time when you went out? Your mother heard that you were dating someone again..."
Li Yuan tidied up the quilt and said, "It's just some commercial hype, just don't take it seriously."
"How could anyone hype this up?"
Li Yuan said helplessly: "Dad, how many celebrities get married for hype? Those who really want to get married will do it in a low-key manner and will not let anyone know about it. In short, if Yi Ling doesn't say anything about this, just pretend you didn't see it. If someone asks, you won't be able to explain it clearly."
My parents still can't accept the idea of fake feelings.
Li Wanhe sighed, "Okay, but you can't do it for real."
"Um."
Li Yuan simply washed his face and went to sleep. He really didn't want to take a shower in the middle of winter, especially since there was no floor heating here and the room was extremely cold.
Qinghe County is located in the south, but the lowest temperature in winter can be as low as minus ten degrees Celsius, and it is already minus two or three degrees Celsius at night.
It feels good to have the four seasons staggered, but Li Yuan is used to the comfortable environment and he feels a little uncomfortable coming back suddenly.
What people hate most is having their threshold raised invisibly.
Just like girls who work hard in big cities rarely want to go back to their hometown to get married.
The only person around him who was suitable to get along with his parents was Jiang Yiling. In a sense, Jiang Yiling had grasped his weakness.
When I woke up, it was already the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month.
They were supposed to return to Jiangzhou today, but their parents obviously underestimated the effect of fame.
Some people even began to hint at the issue of homesteads.
After knowing Li Yuan’s identity as the richest man, he wanted to continue staying in the village.
But Li Yuan has no say in this matter.
It was not until the end, when everyone heard that Li Yuan had bought a villa in Jiangzhou, that they stopped worrying about this issue.
If Li Yuan doesn't come back to live here, then it would be meaningless.
They now live in a resettlement community, which is only about 400 meters away from their previous home.
The community is pretty good, with elevators and security access control.
Zhou Ranran's family also rented a house here and did not buy a new one.
Li Yuan brought some things from home to Zhou Ranran's house. They were the kind with a short shelf life.
After Wang Qi opened the door, Li Yuan saw Zhou Ranran sitting on the sofa.
Zhou Ranran had gained weight visibly. When she suddenly saw Li Yuan coming over, she seemed a little embarrassed because she was eating.
There was nothing she could do about gaining weight.
"Why are you here?"
Li Yuan sat aside and said, "Sister Ran is more voluptuous than before."
Zhou Ranran: “…”
If you want to say I'm fat, just say it.
She is 170cm tall and now weighs 130kg.
Before, it was only about 100 to 105 kilograms.
"She certainly can't compare to Mr. Li's girlfriend, who is tall and thin, and has an incredible figure."
Li Yuan: "No, Yi Ling has gained a lot of weight recently, almost the same as Sister Ran."
"I didn't say Yi Ling."
"Hmm? Then who is my other little girlfriend?"
"Oh, it's only been one night, and you're already denying your guilt? We spent so much time at the night market last night, and stayed in the hotel for so long... Waiter, the county town is my territory..."
News about what happened to Li Yuan at the night market stall last night has already spread online, and someone even took some photos.
Zhou Ranran knows even more because she has many younger brothers following her now.
The county town is such a small place, it is easy to get the news.
"Haha, I haven't seen you for only two or three months, but Sister Ran is becoming more and more like a big sister. But you should avoid interacting with them, so that you won't be implicated in any future incidents."
Zhou Ranran shook her head and said, "It's better to have some than nothing. More friends mean more options. Besides, I'm leading them to run our own media, catching fish and shrimps, and fighting against counterfeiting in the market. These are easy for them and free."
It is impossible to expect those people to go to work honestly. Fortunately, self-media has emerged, and Zhou Ranran also learned some ideas from Li Yuan.
Currently, her media company has several accounts with tens of thousands of followers.
The level is definitely not comparable to Jiutian Media, and it is not even that formal .
Her thinking is able to move people and give her confidence.
"If you get into trouble someday, you can ask them to cover for you so you don't get caught."
Li Yuan: “…”
Zhou Ranran is so thoughtful...
"Sister Ran, don't you want something good?"
"It's just a statement. When I find a good candidate, I'll give him to Jiutian Media to make up for your loss of letting Haozi go."
Li Yuan didn't expect that Zhou Ranran still remembered this incident.
There were indeed some losses caused by letting Liu Hao go, but that was the opinion of Liu Hao's parents. Liu Hao himself had that idea too, and it had nothing to do with Zhou Ranran.
"It's not a big loss. The other party gave us 300 million after all. I also asked the company to keep an eye on it and let Haozi sign a three-year 100 million contract with them. The penalty for breach of contract is only 300 million."
It can be said that he has done his best for Liu Hao.
Liu Hao has currently created a new account, and his number of followers is increasing rapidly. In just two months, he already has four to five million followers.
On the surface, it seems to have enjoyed a second spring, but no one can say what the actual data is like.
Zhou Ranran said, "It was you who helped Haozi to reach his current status. He has enough influence in the fishing circle. You must have lost money with 300 million. But his parents are very happy. The girl will come back for the New Year this year. Haozi sent me a message two days ago, saying that he had bought a house in Jiangzhou and was going to use it as a new house for his wedding."
"Well, bring me a copy then."
"Well? Won't you go and take a look then?"
Li Yuan shook his head. "No, I won't go. Going will only cause trouble."
"What about Xiao Si, Xiao Wu, and Xiao Liu? You don't want to see them either?"
"Yes, let's meet after the Chinese New Year, on the third or fourth day of the New Year. Sister Ran, please call them and I'll treat them to a meal. If Haozi wants to come, just invite him, but don't bring his girlfriend."
Zhou Ranran breathed a sigh of relief.
Given Li Yuan's current status, it is normal for him not to see his friends. After all, they are no longer from the same world.
Then, Li Yuan said, "Sister Ran, they can't be the masters of their parents now, and they won't be able to be the masters of their lives in the future. You can help a little, but don't take on their affairs yourself."
It's understandable that those guys want to meet me, whether it's personal feelings or their family's persuasion, I can understand it.
But their parents didn't take Zhou Ranran seriously at all, and they didn't have the courage to express their attitude. It was impossible to ask Zhou Ranran to help them with everything.
It won’t last long.
Any relationship can't be one-sided.
When Zhou Ranran heard this, her eyes dimmed.
After she came back this time, she could feel that her relationship with her friends had become much more distant.
Even though they had always respected themselves since childhood, it now seemed that it was just the passion of youth.
When they went home for the Chinese New Year this time, they all contacted Zhou Ranran, but they no longer had the same feeling as before.
He was just following his parents' arrangements, trying to build relationships, and trying to find a lucrative job near him like Liu Hao.
"There is one more thing... Before, they didn't know your identity. Haozi's parents returned the villa, and they want to take it back these two days. I haven't agreed yet."
"Then I won't give it to you. There isn't much to begin with, and there isn't enough for our family to share."
"You have quite a few family members then..."
"Yeah, won't there be one more in a few months?"
Jiang Yiling's due date is early June, and Zhou Ranran's is late April.
All in all, there are only more than three months left.
"I'll come back to accompany you then."
As soon as Li Yuan finished speaking, Zhou Ranran immediately said anxiously: "Don't do that. Some people are already suspicious. If you come back, you won't be able to explain yourself. I'll take pictures of you when the time comes. It's more important to focus on your own work. Don't put your mind on me. When you are free, I'll bring the children to see you secretly."
"Sister Ran, you didn't say that before. You said the child had nothing to do with me."
Zhou Ranran fell silent.
She has been out for more than half a year and has gradually adapted to her current life.
But I also became more aware of reality.
It’s completely different from when I was a kid.
"You are all I have now..."
Others are trying to stay away, and the worlds between each other are becoming more and more clearly defined.
