The loan that Lynch, Mr. Herbers, and the people behind him borrowed was actually a gamble. It was just that some people thought that they would definitely win, so they were in a hurry to get into the game.
However, how could there be such a thing as a sure win in this world?
No matter how big the chance of winning was, there was bound to be a loser. Even if the loser was just a "1" after many zeros on the right side of the decimal point, there had to be a loser.
After the two of them had a simple discussion, Mr. Herbers took the initiative to leave. He still had to go to a "dogfight" with his colleagues and friends.
One of the advantages of being in this industry was that they would separate their private matters from their official business. Everyone had a good relationship with each other in private, but when it came to talking about benefits and business, they would become the most disgusted people in each other's lives.
Any industry that had something to do with money had a similar situation. If a person could not handle the problems between personal relationships and work, it was very likely that it would cause a lot of trouble and affect their lives.
The most direct example was the salesmen of various insurance and financial businesses. According to the investigation results of an anonymous investigation organization over the past few years, people could clearly find that the first people who were affected by these salesmen were their relatives.
They would drag down every relative who trusted them in a business-like manner. They would use the excuse that "work is work" as an excuse without the slightest bit of guilt.
The salesmen who would feel guilty had either left the industry or sunk to the bottom of the industry.
Don't think that they would feel embarrassed, and don't expect most of them to feel ashamed. They would tell you confidently that "work is work, and private matters are private matters!"
Not long after Mr. Herbers left, Lynch tidied himself up and asked someone to drive the bus to the port.
Recently, he had to receive many people, such as investors.
Lynch never thought that he could develop this place with his own strength. It would require the efforts of many people. That was why he brought Lyme to high-end gatherings and let him sell things like a "clown".
Getting more people to participate obediently was what Lynch wanted. As for how to get these people to listen to him, it was actually very simple. They just had to buy his company's shares.
The Nagalimund Province Railway Construction Company. The name sounded very long, and the place where Lynch was located also had its own name. This was one of the many companies that he owned.
He would use his own company to manage some of the companies, such as Blackstone Security, Blackstone Investment, Blackstone Capital, and other companies or foundations. These companies were responsible for more positive business.
As for the other companies, they were basically prepared for certain special situations. For example, the Nagalimund Province Railway Construction Company. The name was indeed a little long, but that was not important. What was important was that it was not Lynch's property.
It sounded a little … unexpected, but it was indeed not Lynch's company. Its main shares were in the hands of an unknown foundation. After a few procedures, this private equity foundation might have something to do with Lynch, but Lynch was never the main shareholder of this company.
Lyme also had some shares, and the guests that Lynch was going to receive were the shareholders of this company.
Lyme had pulled in more than two million investment into this company. He even used Lynch's name. Previously, it was less than two million, but after Lynch left, hundreds of thousands came into the account.
Information from Nagalir was reported to the Federation every day. The Federation never stopped learning about this place. With the initial recruitment of workers for the big construction project, a large number of recruitment sites appeared in various cities. With the arrival of workers from the Federation, the whole of Nagalir gave people a feeling that they had never imagined before.
It was like a young woman, exuding youthful vitality, and everyone wanted to get close to her!
People who had not made up their minds before found Lyme again and discussed the possibility of cooperation. This time, they came for a field trip.
This was also a little trick that Lynch taught to Lyme. Not only did you have to have the ability to persuade others in terms of language, but you also had to have something to show for it.
Persuasion also came with a cost. A person who could easily take out a million was more persuasive than a person whose pockets were cleaner than his face.
No matter how well he said it, it was better to bring these people to Nagalir for a field trip to see if there was really investment value here, and if the things that Lyme said were true.
After a few days, the port had become cleaner than before. Every day in Nagalir was a huge change.
Lynch suddenly felt that he should bring the posters he had seen before, Ariedai and Aliedai, to Najalil.
Every day was a new day, a day full of hope. The content of the posters was too consistent with the changes that were happening here.
As more and more foreigners came here, they brought investment and development. At the very least, they brought consumption. So the local city management, including the mayor, were actively changing the environment here.
The oppressive cruise ship slowly docked again. A large number of guests from the Federation and even from all over the world disembarked. Nagalir, like Amelia, was considered to be the place with the fastest economic development in the next six years.
Many people came here to look for opportunities. At least there was no war here.
Soon, Lynch saw the people he needed to receive. They were investors from the Federation. But in addition to these people, there was another person he did not expect. The little star, the girl, Penny.
"I didn't know you would come to pick me up. Have you seen the news? Or have you been paying attention to me?"
The girl seemed to be very happy. She didn't even bother with her luggage as she ran over and threw herself onto Lin Qi.
Not long ago, she almost encountered the "unspoken rules" of a top male star in the Federation. Although this kind of thing was bound to happen, if given a choice, no one would be willing to be unspoken rules by an old man.
Fortunately, Lynch gave her a hand. At the same time, she saw the power of the name "Mr. Lynch".
From Sloan to the director to the investors, their attitude towards her was completely different. People still did not know whether she was related to Lynch or not, but they still maintained enough respect for her. It was a feeling she had never experienced before.
It was like … those who looked down on you the most suddenly began to look at you seriously one day and recognized your efforts. This would bring a deep shock and touch to the person involved.
Including her agency and agent, their attitude towards her was much better. This was the deterrence of the rich!
The gentleman and lady who were talking to Lynch just now smiled and moved away. They looked at them with curiosity and understanding smiles.
Lynch said sorry, then glanced at the girl who was rubbing in his arms and saying, "You smell so good." He reached out and gently pinched her arm. The girl felt the pain and moved away.
"I didn't know you were coming, but you should have noticed that I'm receiving guests."
His gaze was a little unfriendly. Compared to the two million yuan in cash in the hands of these guests, the girl in front of him was not so cute.
The husband of the couple who spoke to Lynch before was also very understanding. "It's okay, Mr. Lynch. I can understand how you feel. It won't bother us."
Lynch nodded and thanked him. He asked the girl to wait at the side. After he finished receiving the guests, he waved at the girl.
The girl bounced over like a little animal. Perhaps it was because Lin Qi had squeezed her arm a little too hard, so she didn't dare to get too close to Lin Qi. She maintained a certain distance from him.
Looking at the investors who were boarding the car, Lynch turned his gaze back to the girl. "I'm sorry that I used a little bit of strength just now, but I don't want anyone to disturb me when I'm chatting with others next time. I'm willing to be a gentleman, and I also hope that you can be a lady. What do you say?"
The girl's attention was obviously not on the same level as a man's. Compared to Lynch's warnings, she cared more about the "next time." Therefore, she nodded obediently and reached out to poke Lynch's arm. "So now, you won't pinch me, right?"
"If you didn't disturb me, I wouldn't do that!"
The girl suddenly stuck to Lynch's side and naturally held his arm. "I didn't expect to see you so coincidentally. I thought you came to pick me up after seeing the news!"
"News?"
Lynch asked casually. In fact, he already knew the reason. Not far away, the crew was also boarding the car. The girl was obviously there to shoot a movie.
The girl nodded. "Yes, these themes have been very popular recently. They gave me a script. Speaking of which, it has something to do with you …"
The girl and Lynch's "cooperation" last time was exposed by the reporters. This was actually an accident. Originally, Sloan wanted to hype up the scandal between the two with the girl and appear to be more intimate with her to ignite the popularity of the movie.
Therefore, he asked some of his reporter friends to wait by the swimming pool to "secretly take photos". In the end, they did not manage to capture the intimate scene between the two. Instead, they captured some seemingly intimate actions between Lynch and the girl.
Soon, the girl stood up to refute the rumors, saying that she and Lynch were just ordinary friends. Then, she received an invitation from Fox Pictures to participate in the audition for the second female lead of "The Adventures of Lynch".
The first movie was an unprecedented success. It was said that they might give the Best Film Award, Best Adaptation Award, Best Screenplay Award, Best Actor Award, Best Director Award, and so on.
On the one hand, it created a new genre. On the other hand, it was also because the father and son of Foksu had given them too much.
Foksu Pictures adhered to the principle of taking advantage of the popularity and promoted the shooting of the second movie. Lynch's rumored girlfriend, Penny, naturally became one of the invited actresses. With her outstanding performance, she won the role of the second female lead of the second movie.
This time, they were there to shoot the scene.
