Becoming a Billionaire From Awakening a System

Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Setting Up a Company, Annual Return Over 10%

”Do you even need to ride someone’s coattails?”

Lin Feng took a light sip from the teacup Su Ruoxi handed him and said with a smile, ”You just need to study hard and take over from Uncle Yang after you graduate.”

Lin Feng was telling the truth.

Yang Qiniang looked hard-up now.

But sooner or later, he was destined to be Yang Tianming’s successor.

The entire corporation would be his then. Why would he need to ride anyone else’s coattails?

Besides, even if Lin Feng wanted to help right now, he couldn’t.

The securities investment company hadn’t been set up yet.

That process would take at least two weeks.

Starting a company isn’t as easy as it sounds. The tedious procedures are enough to make anyone break down.

If the system wasn’t backing Lin Feng, he probably wouldn’t have even thought about starting a company until his junior year.

”Come on, I’d have to wait until after graduation for that.”

”I really can’t wait four years.”

’Does he really need to wait four years?’

’Probably not.’

Lin Feng believed that by their junior year,

Yang Tianming would probably start deliberately exposing Yang Qiniang to the company’s affairs.

By then, he would certainly loosen the restrictions on Yang Qiniang to some extent—for instance, giving him more money, letting him try his hand at starting a business, and getting a feel for how the business world works.

But before that, it was really hard to say.

The freshman and sophomore years were just for systematic theoretical learning.

Jumping straight into practical application would be like pulling up seedlings to help them grow—counterproductive.

”Actually, if you really want me to help you out, it’s not impossible.”

Lin Feng frowned slightly and said, ”You know my spending money all comes from the stock market.”

”But the amount of capital I’m managing now is already at my limit.”

”That’s why I withdraw my earnings every day.”

Lin Feng wasn’t wrong.

In the stock market, every time your capital increases by an order of magnitude, it makes trading significantly more difficult.

For example, in the process of buying and selling,

if your capital is too large, you can end up like a dragon stranded in shallow waters, unable to turn around.

If you don’t buy or sell at the right time, your gains can quickly turn into losses.

”I understand all that.”

Yang Qiniang was a finance major himself, so of course he knew this.

Besides, he had seen with his own eyes that Lin Feng withdrew his earnings daily.

”So, I need your help setting up a securities investment company.”

Lin Feng said in a low, serious voice, looking at Yang Qiniang.

After all, it would be too difficult to set up a securities investment company all by himself.

He had virtually no connections for recruiting talent.

Although the system guaranteed that once Lin Feng established the company, it could upgrade the core personnel’s skills to ensure the annual rate of return,

the structure of a company was obviously not that simple.

You’d need managers, right?

And administrative staff?

And finance staff?

If he didn’t even have these, he wouldn’t be able to meet the system’s basic requirements.

Only after putting this organizational structure in place could he say he had truly built a framework.

Otherwise, if just registering the company and renting an office space counted as building a company framework, wouldn’t that be a little too easy?

”Set up a securities investment company?”

If Yang Qiniang hadn’t known what Lin Feng was planning before,

he understood now after hearing Lin Feng’s words.

”That’s right. After the company is set up, I’ll train the key personnel.”

”I can’t promise too much, but I can guarantee that as long as their total capital doesn’t exceed one hundred million, they’ll achieve an annual rate of return of over ten percent.”

Lin Feng didn’t hide much from Yang Qiniang.

There wasn’t much to hide, anyway.

Yang Qiniang and Lin Feng were already close friends,

so there was no way he would do anything to harm Lin Feng.

Besides, since he was asking Yang Qiniang for help, he naturally had to be honest.

He just selectively concealed the existence of the system.

However, an annual rate of return over 10%...

To Lin Feng, it might not have seemed like a big deal,

but he forgot that Yang Qiniang and the others couldn’t accept this fact.

”Just by training them, they can manage up to one hundred million in capital?”

”And you can guarantee an annual return of over ten percent?”

”You’re not pulling my leg, are you, Brother Feng?”

It wasn’t just Yang Qiniang who reacted this way.

Even Yang Qingqing and Su Ruoxi, who was beside Lin Feng, had expressions of astonishment.

”Brother Feng, we believe in your abilities.”

”But to think you can train others to achieve that level of skill...”

Yang Qingqing also sounded a bit skeptical.

But Su Ruoxi, after a brief moment of surprise, chose to believe Lin Feng.

”I believe you.”

”If you need, I can be your company’s first client.”

”My mom left me over three million when she passed away.”

”I’ve spent some of it over the years, but I still have two million seven hundred thousand on my card.”

”I can give it all to you.”

Su Ruoxi had been silent while Lin Feng and Yang Qiniang were talking,

just quietly resting her head on Lin Feng’s shoulder.

Now, the effect of the alcohol was returning.

So when she spoke, she sounded a bit drowsy.

But her words left the three of them, including Lin Feng, a little speechless.

’So Su Ruoxi is actually the richest among the four of them right now?’

’If you exclude family background and only consider cash on hand...’

’She really is.’

Even Lin Feng couldn’t compare to Su Ruoxi.

The total cash Lin Feng had on hand right now was only one million two hundred thousand.

That wasn’t even half of what Su Ruoxi had.

However, the money in Lin Feng’s hands was constantly increasing; surpassing Su Ruoxi was just a matter of time.

”That’s what your mother left you. Are you sure you want to give it to me?”

”Aren’t you afraid I’ll lose it all?”

Lin Feng wrapped his arm around Su Ruoxi and asked with a smile.

”I’m not afraid. I’m already set on being with you anyway.”

”If you lose it all, then you can just take care of me.”

Her undying devotion had turned Su Ruoxi into a girl madly in love.

The kind who clearly lost a few IQ points whenever she was around Lin Feng.

As she spoke, she snuggled against Lin Feng’s chest, as if trying to find a comfortable position to sleep.

”You hear that, Brother Nian?”

”My girlfriend is putting up her future dowry.”

”Do you still doubt me?”

Lin Feng took the opportunity to pull Su Ruoxi into his embrace and then looked at Yang Qiniang.

Yang Qiniang immediately rolled his eyes.

’We were having a serious conversation. Can you two stop with the PDA?!’

”I can help you find people. Although my dad usually restricts my and Qingqing’s spending,”

”he doesn’t stop me from meeting people from the company.”

”I can scrape together a batch of people for all the different positions for you.”

’As expected, for some things, going to Yang Qiniang was the most direct way to solve a problem and save a lot of trouble.’

”Then it’s settled. You help find the people first, and after we get back from the National Day holiday, we’ll decide on an office location.”

Without waiting for Yang Qiniang to say anything more,

Lin Feng made the decision for him.
