Urban Life: I Just Want To Work Hard!

Chapter 175: The President Sister's Leverage, Banquet! (4k-word chapter update)

The piano melody of the night played once again.

Li Mubai, who had embraced the philosophy of "When in doubt, quantum mechanics," was multitasking without any pressure. While teaching Pei Xue the first section of the piano piece, his brain was spinning rapidly.

The most crucial issue now was how Li Mubai should adjust the relationship between Yun Wuyue and Zhang Chuyun. Although Zhang Chuyun's mother was assisting her, Zhang Chuyun would temporarily remain calm and silent for a period of time, without any instability occurring.

But Zhang Chuyun was definitely not an easy opponent. She would definitely come up with a big move against Yun Wuyue.

As far as Li Mubai could think of, there were very few things that could be used against Yun Wuyue. Apart from the reminder from Zhou Ziqing that one time, the only other leverage was in the business field.

Last week, Li Mubai returned from Mango TV and conducted a thorough investigation online, including the equity relationships of related groups under the Yun Group.

Yun Wuyue started expanding from an entertainment company to other industries at some point in time. The earliest time couldn't be traced back, but Li Mubai found some clues on the internet that indicated it happened before Yun Wuyue took the position of the president of the Yun Group.

Under the Yun Group, they had already acquired a company called Wuyun Investment. This investment company played the role of an angel investor during the era of rapid internet development.

An angel investor was a form of equity capital investment. It referred to individuals or institutions with a certain net wealth who made early direct investments in start-up companies with huge development potential.

This "early" was early enough to participate in the investment projects. Wuyun Investment was such a company. It was called an investment company, but it was more like a private equity fund.

Among them, the equity distribution of the Beijing Wuyun Investment Management Partnership Enterprise was as follows: Yun Wuyue 49%, Yun Lianxing 25%, Yun Jinfan 25%.

Adding up to a total of 99%.

The remaining 1% belonged to Li Mubai.

Li Mubai speculated that initially, Yun Wuyue should have had 50%, and this 1% was given to him from her 50%.

The reason for this speculation was that the change in equity ownership occurred last month. In other words, his name was only added last month.

Li Mubai still didn't have an accurate figure for how much this 1% was worth.

But based on his preliminary estimate, the 1% of the Beijing Wuyun Investment Management Partnership Enterprise was worth around 15 billion US dollars.

Now let's talk about Yun Wuyue's expansion from the entertainment industry to other industries.

It was precisely in the year when Yun Wuyue took the position of the president of the Yun Group that Wuyun Investment acquired 47.3% of the shares of a company listed on the New Third Board called Chang'an Ronghua.

Thus becoming the largest shareholder of Chang'an Ronghua.

Li Mubai didn't find any relationship between the other shareholders of Chang'an Ronghua and the Yun family, and he didn't dare to use the connections given to him by Yun Wuyue and Lin Jiayin.

However, Wuyun Investment successfully went public on the New Third Board by using the shell of Chang'an Ronghua.

Afterward, Chang'an Ronghua changed its name to Chang'an Feixin Technology Co., Ltd.

According to the equity relationship between Wuyun Investment and Chang'an Feixin Technology, Yun Wuyue held approximately 23.65% of the shares.

Currently, Li Mubai held 4.73% and didn't have the remaining 18.92% of the shares.

At first glance, Yun Wuyue didn't hold a large proportion. According to the shareholder change announcement that Li Mubai found, the second-largest shareholder of Chang'an Feixin Technology was a company called Beijing Yunxing, which held 27.68%.

Another company with the word "Yun."

Upon investigation, Li Mubai found that it was Yun Jinfan and Yun Lianxing. Yun Jinfan held the majority, slightly higher than 23.65%.

In other words, the actual controlling shareholder of Chang'an Feixin Technology was Yun Jinfan!

Now let's talk about the relationship between Yun Jinfan, Yun Wuyue, and Yun Lianxing.

Li Mubai suspected that Yun Lianxing didn't know that she herself was one of the shareholders of the largest internet social networking application in China, Feixin.

【Note: The translation provided is a direct translation and may not capture the full meaning or nuances of the original text.】

And Yun Jin Fan, according to Yun Wu Yue, has already traveled around the world.

Therefore, the actual controlling shareholder on this paper is uncertain.

After all, companies and institutions in any industry have situations of shareholding representation.

Shareholding representation is very common in business.

Some do it to hide themselves, some do it to evade regulation, and some do it as part of their transaction structure.

The specific details are completely unknown to Li Mubai.

Because there are too many purposes and methods behind it, all sorts of them.

If Li Mubai, Yun Lian Xing, and Yun Jin Fan's shares are all held by Yun Wu Yue, then everything makes sense.

But it is worth mentioning.

Ever since Chang'an Fei Xin Technology merged with Wei Xin, it has become one of the largest internet service providers in China.

Its current market value is estimated to be over 70 billion RMB.

And under Wu Yun Investment, there are dozens of other companies.

This includes industries such as live streaming and online gaming that are currently popular.

Some have a large shareholding percentage, while others have a small share for dividend distribution.

Li Mubai has never calculated how much these shares are worth, but as mentioned before, he is now worth over 10 billion US dollars.

Although Yun Wu Yue didn't tell him about this.

But Li Mubai remembers the favor of the president's sister.

Returning to Wu Yun Investment.

Wu Yun Investment was acquired by Yun Yu Group, but all the shares held by Yun Yu Group are dividend shares, and the operating rights of Wu Yun Investment are held by the founder of Wu Yun Investment.

The founder, as Li Mubai found out, is still two companies, namely Qian Shi and Yue Shi, both limited partnerships.

The general partners of Qian Shi and Yue Shi are both held by Yun Yue Investment Company.

Yun Yue Investment Company, 100% ownership, sole person - Yun Wu Yue.

Among them, the registered capital of Yun Yue Investment Company is 10 million RMB.

Because general partners have unlimited joint liability.

So, in the end, the risk bearer for all these companies is Yun Yue Investment Company, that is, Yun Wu Yue.

Finally, let's summarize.

Yun Wu Yue not only has all the decision-making power of Wu Yun Investment, but also bears unlimited liability.

Hmm.

With only 10 million RMB in capital, he has gained control of multiple companies' shareholding investment companies with an estimated initial market value of over 200 billion US dollars through layers of equity relationships.

Of course.

The premise is that all these companies go public, otherwise it's not worth 200 billion US dollars.

It fits Yun Wu Yue's methods quite well.

After all, when he was lying with Yun Wu Yue that time, Yun Wu Yue said that she left herself a way out.

Even if Yun Wu Yue Group, Wu Yun Investment, and other companies really encounter problems.

To clarify all the relationships here would take several years, or even more than a decade, not to mention lawsuits and the like. It can be imagined that it would be a very long economic dispute lawsuit.

However.

What is there to fear.

What is feared is that the investigation against Yun Yu Group, Wu Yun Investment, and these companies has already secretly begun!

Because if that's the case.

Yun Wu Yue's way out would be completely blocked.

But fortunately, this investigation should be very lengthy.

Li Mubai has a system cheat, with his brain developed to 100%, and he found out all this based on the data available.

There is no other person in this world who can organize Yun Wu Yue's capital operations in such a short time like Li Mubai.

I have to say.

CEO Sister is a business genius, and... her methods are extraordinary.

In addition, while organizing this process, Li Mubai thought of an interesting point.

If Yun Wuyue had already set such a grand business blueprint ten years ago, how did she end up losing to Xueying Entertainment in the contract when she became the CEO of Yunyu Group?

This doesn't make sense.

At that time, Yun Wuyue should have already been a peerless talent in the business world, overlooking the existence of a generation.

That small contract with Xueying, it could have been easily handled.

After much thought, Li Mubai could only think of one possibility.

That is, Yun Wuyue intentionally lost.

As for why she intentionally lost, Li Mubai didn't consider it.

CEO Sister definitely has her own thoughts.

Going back to the initial point.

In terms of business, it is Yun Wuyue's first weakness.

If Zhang Chuyun is really prepared to use means against Yun Wuyue in this aspect, then their relationship cannot be reconciled through normal means.

Unconventional means are needed, at least relying on the system.

Because Li Mubai can't save the situation.

The second weakness is Li Mubai himself.

What Yun Wuyue and Lin Jiayin did to Li Mubai that night can be held accountable.

But this shouldn't matter much.

Because Li Mubai can choose not to pursue it.

The third weakness that Li Mubai thought of is Ye Feng.

What CEO Sister did to him that night, that can also be held accountable.

But during this period of time, the main reason why Ye Feng didn't pursue it is because he didn't dare.

There are two main aspects to his fear.

First, there is insufficient evidence. Within Yunyu Group, it is Yun Wuyue's territory, and she directly deleted the surveillance footage from that day. She pointed at Ye Feng and said he was infiltrating Yunyu Group to engage in corporate espionage. Who would have the audacity?

Not to mention, when Ye Feng went to see Yun Wuyue that day, his motives were indeed impure.

The second aspect is that Ye Group can't withstand any storms right now. If they offend Yun Wuyue too much, she would definitely overthrow Ye Group in a short period of time, and even leave Ye Feng with nothing.

According to common sense.

This aspect is not even considered Yun Wuyue's weakness because the threat it poses is too small.

But.

If that woman Zhang Chuyun really disregards everything and goes to cooperate with Ye Feng, causing trouble for Yun Wuyue, then it's hard to say.

If Zhang Chuyun provides shelter for Ye Feng and lets him come out to cause trouble for Yun Wuyue.

Li Mubai thinks that this is something Zhang Chuyun is capable of doing.

After thinking it over.

Li Mubai thinks it would be better for him to handle this weakness because it's the easiest for him to deal with.

For example, if Zhang Chuyun really does this.

Li Mubai can directly stand up and say that he and Ye Feng are already at odds, and Zhang Chuyun will definitely switch sides on the spot, without hesitation, treating Ye Feng as a discarded pawn.

This way, Ye Feng would no longer pose a threat.

The above are all the points that Li Mubai needs to consider for CEO Sister.

Next is Zhang Chuyun.

If Zhang Chuyun really does something to Yun Wuyue, would Yun Wuyue, with her personality, just sit and wait?

Not to mention Zhang Chuyun's influential background.

At that time, would Yun Wuyue consider these things?

And besides.

Yunyu Group, with such a massive commercial empire behind Yun Wuyue, wouldn't they have made connections with some influential figures?

Since ancient times, officials and merchants have been closely related.

Yun Wuyue definitely has her ways.

However...

This Li Mubai can't get involved, there's no way.

He can only say that he's doing his best to avoid any potential conflicts with this scale.

In the end...

It's just Zhang Chuyun and the others from the two camps fighting for her.

Li Mubai sighed in his heart, he still couldn't prevent it in advance.

Because they haven't really done anything yet.

Li Mubai couldn't provide any preventive measures.

Playing the fourth section of the nocturne on the piano, Li Mubai looked at Pei Xue's obedient appearance.

If everyone were as obedient as Pei Xue, wouldn't that be great?

Li Mubai didn't need to think about anything.

Soon, the piano music stopped.

Li Mubai pinched Pei Xue's cheek. "Rest now, you have to go to school tomorrow. I'll continue teaching you tomorrow night~."

"Mmm."

A silent night.

The next morning, Pei Xue got up to make breakfast and brought it to Yun Wuyue, then went to school.

Li Mubai continued his composition work.

This time, he chose a Cantonese song for himself, called "Heart Becomes Light", which is also an old song from over a decade ago.

Hmm, this song is just as the title suggests.

A relationship eventually becomes light.

The meaning of the lyrics mostly revolves around the fading of memories.

The passion for someone gradually dissipates.

Time is the most ruthless force.

Consider it Li Mubai's final explanation for the persona he had previously established. Whether it's love or pain, his heart has become light.

After the heart becomes light...

After the silence, there is rebirth. Li Mubai can start a new relationship.

This is the plan Li Mubai has come up with.

Instead of unknowingly waiting for the girls around him to slowly approach the battlefield, it's better to release this new signal in advance.

This way, everyone's true colors will be revealed.

He can also have a rough idea of the camps.

After singing the last song to be performed this weekend, Li Mubai went to meet Xu Shiwen.

He spent a wonderful morning with his celebrity sister [Li Mutian came to have lunch with Pei Xue.

In the afternoon...

Li Mubai played games with Lin Jiajia and chatted with a few others.

Time quickly came to the evening.

Pei Xue and Zhou Ziqing came back together, with Yun Wuyue following behind.

After a simple greeting...

Li Mubai changed into his formal attire and left the room under the infatuated gazes of Pei Xue and Zhou Ziqing.

He went to attend tonight's banquet with Yun Wuyue.
