Chapter 518: Chapter 249: The Car’s Suspension Performance
Lin Shen parked his car at the entrance of Shen Yun’s villa, leaning against the door as he silently contemplated his next business moves.
Shennan was on the right track, but Shenwan was still in its infancy.
The focus should be on the former, but Nan was helping him manage it.
’So, should I start on the preparatory work for Shenwan’s early stages?’
’Rent an office space for filming, recruit some people to write scripts.’
This was what a media company was supposed to do.
’But right now, I only have one signed streamer. If I count Qingqing’s roommate, then two at most.’
’Maybe I should just let them develop on their own for now. Once I have ten streamers signed, I can find a proper space.’
Lin Shen thought to himself.
In truth, compared to Shenwan, Shennan was his biggest worry.
Because he was running out of money!
Although Lin Shen had over ten million in his account and over thirty million in the startup fund stored in GoGo Maps...
...he needed to give Nan fifteen million to acquire three shops, set aside five million for company emergencies, and give another five million to Shen Yun to expand the supply chain.
’Even though she’s helping me for free because of our intimate relationship, I can’t just give nothing in return, can I?’
’That would be so unethical!’
’At the very least, I have to cover the cost of the pet food.’
Thus, the operational cash Lin Shen had on hand was only five million.
Fuck!
’That’s so little!’
For the first time, Lin Shen felt the hardships of starting a business.
’I’ve got to make some money, and fast!’
There were three money-making methods available to Lin Shen now.
One was to ignore the system, get financing from other companies, and attract investors.
Lin Shen immediately dismissed that idea.
’I want full control of my companies. If I give up equity, things could get complicated down the line. Besides, I fucking have a system. Do I really need to rely on others for investment just to start a business? Wouldn’t that mean I got this system for nothing? No way!’
And so, the first idea was instantly deleted from Lin Shen’s mind.
The second method was to travel around and accumulate startup funds by passing through GoGo Maps’ Red Points.
This was also the most comfortable and satisfying way for Lin Shen to get money.
’Passing one Red Point gives me 500,000. As long as I go to places I’ve never been before, making four or five million a day won’t be a problem. A week-long trip like that, and I’d have tens of millions.’
Sweet!
"Alright, a trip to Sanya should be on the agenda now!"
Lin Shen silently made his plans.
’I’m not just slacking off; I’m going to Sanya for the company’s development.’
Of course, there was also a third money-making method available to Lin Shen.
Completing the ReceivePal mission, which was to buy three cars.
He was still short two cars. But even with the [Dream Vehicle Card MAX], he was now facing a very difficult problem.
He had money, but no connections!
If he went directly to a dealership to buy a luxury car, he might have to wait six months to a year.
By then, it would be too late!
The only way might be to buy a car directly from some rich second-generation kids who liked to collect luxury cars.
Even if they were second-hand, what luxury car these days hadn’t passed through multiple hands?
Aside from a few classic models, the remaining limited editions were all snapped up by wealthy businessmen around the world.
If he wanted to buy a car, it really depended on whether this group of people was willing to let one go.
"So, I guess I have to work on my social connections, too!"
Lin Shen scratched his head, wondering how he could get connected with that crowd of rich kids and wealthy businessmen.
’Among the people I know, there’s probably only one person who has those kinds of connections...’
Zhao Jianing!
Although she was on good terms with Nan, the people Nan knew were mostly legitimate, middle-aged businessmen.
’After all, she doesn’t even have many friends, let alone know any rich kids.’
Of course, Shen Yun also knew a lot of rich people, but she was already forty, so the people around her were probably in the same age group.
’I’m only twenty-five; I wouldn’t be able to hang out with them!’
’So, my only contact really might be Zhao Jianing!’
’I’ll have to talk to her later and see if I can tag along into her social circle and find some connections.’
"Sigh—!"
Lin Shen couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh.
’I guess you really do run in circles that match your status.’
’Right now, I’m at best just "new money." I have the cash, but none of the connections.’
’I can’t even find someone to introduce me to a car seller!’
’This is the very definition of "useless money"!’
Lin Shen crossed his arms, looking up at the sky with an extremely melancholic expression.
Coincidentally, this very scene was witnessed by Shen Yun, who was just driving up.
When she saw her "little lover" whom she had been longing for day and night, dressed formally in a sharp suit to meet her, Shen Yun could no longer suppress the excitement in her heart.
’So handsome!’
’No matter what angle I look from, Lin Shen is just so handsome!’
Shen Yun’s beautiful eyes grew hazy. She honked the horn twice to let Lin Shen know she had arrived.
After he looked over, Shen Yun changed into her high heels, got out of the car with her trench coat draped over her arm, and CLICK-CLACK-CLICK, her beautiful, black-stockinged legs quickly carried her over. Swaying her hips, she arrived in front of Lin Shen and threw herself fiercely into his arms.
"Shen! Sorry to keep you waiting."
"I haven’t been waiting long."
Lin Shen wrapped one arm around Shen Yun’s curvy waist, a smile playing on his lips.
Shen Yun’s outfit today still had her signature "sultry charm" style. On the outside was a very normal trench coat, a lightweight style suitable for early autumn.
But what she wore underneath was a different story.
She wore a navy-blue, high-necked sleeveless top that perfectly accentuated the elegant lines of her neck and revealed her smooth, rounded shoulders.
