Super Tycoon: I Beg You, Stop Pulling Stunts

Chapter 530: Chapter 315: The Tenant from Half a Year Ago and the ”Five Stars Rising in the East” Shock

At that moment, the image of Lin Chu in his mind began to merge with the one from the video, becoming more concrete and real.

He was a very smart, sharp, and rich young man with high IQ and EQ, and his morals were in the right place.

After entering the room.

The three of them sat around a round table.

”Alright, Mr. Li, let’s talk business first. We can catch up later, okay? The reason I invited Mr. Xu to meet today is primarily to discuss a potential collaboration with him.”

”I’m actually very impressed with the content, depth, and perspective of your videos, as well as the influence you have among your fanbase.”

”Your analysis of me got some things right. I won’t go into detail about what was right or wrong. Let’s just talk about the areas where our interests might overlap.”

”My main goal in going global this time is to promote China’s top luxury goods on the world stage, to create a top global brand that can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Louis Vuitton.”

”On the public relations front, I need external publicity.”

”Right now, I’m considering two models for cooperation. First, a full acquisition of your studio. Of course, Mr. Xu, as the central figure, you are the talent I value most.”

”Second, we could do an annual contract partnership where you produce custom content. To put it bluntly, I provide the money, you provide the labor, and become one of our promotional channels.”

”That’s the general idea for now. I’d like to hear what you both think.”

Having said all that in one breath, Lin Chu lit a cigarette, casually offered them to the other two, and looked at them.

Li Zuoguo: ...

He had just recovered from the initial shock of the meeting, but the words Lin Chu had just dropped dealt him an even greater shock.

’A globally renowned... top-tier Chinese luxury brand!’

’This vision is too big!’

’And it’s too difficult!’

A few hundred million, or even over a billion, would be far from enough.

That would be on the scale of tens of billions, or even a hundred billion, plus a massive, long-term investment of time.

Li Zuoguo just couldn’t wrap his head around it. How could a young man who was still renting a gym just six months ago have reached this level in half a year?

He had the strong feeling that he was ”witnessing a miracle.”

Xu Hu looked at Li Zuoguo, then at Lin Chu, and let out a couple of chuckles.

”Let me say something off-topic first. I never expected a fortune of this magnitude to just fall into my lap like this.”

”Now, for the main topic...”

”President Lin, your business vision has my heart racing in a way it hasn’t for a long time.”

”I knew it! I just knew you were planning something huge!”

”But I never thought you’d already be making this move!”

”Let me state my position first. In my studio, the current equity split is 20% for President Li and 80% for me. Personally, to be able to participate in something like this, I’m all in, 100%!”

”There’s nothing more to say. This vision is just too inspiring. Cultural export is something I’ve been doing all along, too. It’s just that my previous focus was on politics and economics, but I understand culture as well.”

”Me, I’m not a man of great talent. While President Lin leads the charge, I can wave the flags and cheer from the sidelines. No problem at all.”

Xu Hu stated his position so bluntly and crisply that he almost seemed like a reckless oaf. It even took Lin Chu by surprise. ’He’s really that decisive?’

But from Xu Hu’s perspective, he had actually already looked up all of Lin Chu’s background information and knew exactly what was what.

Now, upon hearing Lin Chu’s vision, everything just clicked into place.

For a grand undertaking like this, he wouldn’t even be able to get a foot in the door on his own. But by following a major player’s team, there would definitely be a role for him to play.

Besides, he was in new media... there were hardly any costs. The biggest costs were himself, his time, and his energy.

’And this major player isn’t looking for a freebie; he’s offering to pay. This is like a carp leaping the dragon gate—an opportunity I couldn’t have even dreamed of!’

’It’s like a prostitute finding a sugar daddy to take care of her!’

’So what’s there left to say?’

’Do it!’

’Hesitating for even a second would be my own damn fault!’

Lin Chu: Er.

For a moment, he couldn’t help but let out a hearty laugh.

’This Xu Hu is really... decisive.’

As for Li Zuoguo, Lin Chu could understand his shock and astonishment. To be fair, if he were in Li Zuoguo’s shoes, he’d be completely flabbergasted, too. Utterly dumbfounded!

Six months ago...

Six months later...

It was a world of difference...

Anyone in that situation would find it hard to accept in such a short time.

’But my own growth was just that fast, with the speed of a rocket’s ascent!’
