Urban Life: I Became Jiang Nansun's Landlord

Page 142

Jiang Nansun was somewhat puzzled as to why Lin Yi insisted on using her surname as the company name.

In Jiang Nansun's view, using the masculine name "Mr. Lin" makes the company seem more sophisticated.

Of course, it would be a lie to say that Jiang Nansun wasn't moved by Lin Yi's insistence on doing so.

Imagine that Lin Yi invested 100 million yuan in a company.

If this company is well-managed and performs well in all aspects, its market value could reach several billion.

It's normal for it to increase several dozen times.

Imagine a company worth billions of dollars being named after her surname.

When Jiang Nansun tells this story to others later, who knows how envious they will be.

Jiang Nansun could imagine all of these scenarios.

Clearly, Lin Yi had grasped this point about the girl, which is why he directly chose to use Nan Sun's surname.

Nan Sun gained fame, Lin Yi gained profit, and most of the money he earned later was his.

Nansun would love him even more because of this, so why not?

It's just a matter of a company name; it's nothing to Lin Yi.

However, since Jiang Nansun asked this question, Lin Yi could not answer it in the same way.

Lin Yi thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Because I don't have a story to tell. A good entrepreneur must be able to tell a story."

To be precise, a good entrepreneur must be good at persuasion and creating a persona.

"How do you say this?"

Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo exchanged a glance, finding Lin Yi's words quite novel.

They looked at Lin Yi curiously, anticipating his next answer.

Lin Yi said with a smile, "Once the company becomes popular, as the company's boss, and with your good looks, you, Jiang Nansun, will also become the focus of everyone's attention."

People will be very curious about what happened to you.

How did you, a wealthy heiress, embark on the path of entrepreneurship? And how did you manage to do so well?

Later, as reporters dug deeper, everyone found out.

Not long ago, your father lost money in the stock market and ran away. The family was being harassed by creditors, and the house was mortgaged to the bank. At that time, you had no relatives or friends to rely on...

It was under these difficult circumstances that you embarked on the path of entrepreneurship.

After much painful reflection, you realized that those house designs were all the result of your own efforts, Jiang Nansun.

And you, Jiang Nansun, are a PhD student at Shanghai University of Architecture, with high looks and a high academic background.

So many things have happened to you, but instead of breaking you down, they've made you stronger, and you've become so successful in your business.

These are all things that people love to watch.

With these announcements, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Nan Sun, you'll undoubtedly become the next generation's inspirational goddess.

The company will also reach new heights because of you.

This whole thing is true, except that Jiang Nansun wasn't actually that badly off; Lin Yi exaggerated it a little.

After Lin Yi finished speaking, Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo were both dumbfounded.

Can stories be interpreted in this way?

The story Lin Yi told was indeed a true story that happened to Jiang Nansun.

On the day she was being chased for debt, she was indeed desperate, but because of Lin Yi, her despair was tempered with a glimmer of hope.

These are the things she experienced, but her life wasn't nearly as miserable as Lin Yi described.

Not to mention any difficulties.

Jiang Nan blushed, feeling extremely embarrassed.

"Lin Yi, now that you mention it, I really feel it. I can't help but feel sorry for and admire Nan Sun." Zhu Suosuo nodded.

Lin Yi asked with a smile, "If you owned a house, would you hire Miss Jiang's renovation company?"

Zhu Suosuo, speaking from an outsider's perspective, said, "If I had a house, I would have thought, since houses need to be renovated anyway, it doesn't matter who I hire, since I don't know anyone."

Ms. Jiang is so positive and hardworking, and her service is good too, why don't you ask her for help?

Lin Yi laughed and said, "Look at you, that's just the thinking of an ordinary person."

In this era, it's common to make money by using one's own story.

Further along, there are people who make a fortune by practicing Qigong.

This is something unimaginable more than a decade later.

It can be said that this era marks the end of an age of innocence.

After hearing this, Jiang Nansun blushed deeply and felt very uncomfortable.

"Lin Yi, isn't what we're doing a bad thing?" Jiang Nansun said.

"Then I'll ask you two questions," Lin Yi said. "First, are the things I've said false?"

“No, these things really did happen to me, and there were many witnesses at the time.” Jiang Nansun shook his head.

"Secondly, would our renovation company provide poor service? Would we cut corners?" Lin Yi asked.

"No, I would never do such a thing. I've already made the money, so there's no need for me to ruin my reputation."

"Moreover, we are in the service industry, and we will do our best to meet the needs of our customers," Jiang Nansun said firmly.

"See? That's settled then. We don't cheat or rob, and we'll provide excellent service to our clients who need renovations. What's there to be embarrassed about?" Lin Yi said with a smile. "We're just using this little incident to make a name for ourselves and let Miss Jiang's renovation company's reputation become truly renowned."

Let everyone know that there is a renovation company in Shanghai with excellent service that is both affordable and effective. It is called Ms. Jiang's Renovation Company.

They chose our renovation company because they felt confident during the renovation process, and we also made money. It's a win-win situation, so what's wrong with that?

After listening to Lin Yi's explanation, Jiang Nansun, who was still a bit conflicted, suddenly understood.

“Yes, it’s a win-win situation, what’s there for me to be embarrassed about?” Jiang Nansun said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Suosuo burst out laughing.

"Lin Yi, you have a sharp tongue. Nan Sun was initially embarrassed, but after you said that, it instantly turned into something that benefits everyone," Zhu Suosuo said.

"Isn't that right? Some people worry a lot about home renovations, even after they've spent money on them. They're afraid the renovation company will do a sloppy job, or that the renovation funds will be misappropriated. There are countless similar stories."

But our company is different. They provide the money, and we take care of the renovations, which puts their minds at ease.

"Why not do something that benefits both sides?" Lin Yi said with a smile.

"Mhm." Jiang Nansun nodded quickly upon hearing this.

"Nan Sun, do you still feel embarrassed now?" Lin Yi asked with a smile.

"No, on the contrary, I'm very happy. But wouldn't it be a bit like self-praise to use my own story for publicity?" Jiang Nansun said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi burst out laughing.

"It's as if the media will let you off the hook if you don't publicize it."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Once the company grows to a certain size, you will come into the sights of certain people."

With your beauty and poise, it's impossible for the media not to notice you.

These things did indeed happen to you, and the media's usual tactic is to use emotional appeals to tell everyone how difficult it is for a girl like you to start a business.

This isn't my opinion; it's a common tactic used by the media. They'll subconsciously portray you as an inspirational figure.

Think about it, have we ever read an article explaining how difficult it was for a successful businessman to get started?

After seeing it, you'll feel a pang of sadness and think, "He really had a tough time."

Are these facts?

It may be, or it may not be.

However, the articles written by the media are guiding people in this way.

This is a common tactic used by the media.

"Alright, that's enough. Everyone's had a long day, let's get some rest," Lin Yi said.

“Okay.” Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo nodded together.

After washing up, Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo ran to a room.

Lin Yi quickly finished showering and wanted to run to Suosuo's room.

To everyone's surprise, the room door was locked.

They actually predicted his thoughts?

Good heavens, Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo are not innocent anymore.

Is he that kind of person?

"Nan Sun, Suo Suo, it's your husband! Open the door!" Lin Yi called from outside.

"Honey, we've already gone to sleep, you should go and rest too," Jiang Nansun said, suppressing a laugh.

"Alas, the night is too short, and I can't sleep."

"It's cold outside, are you really willing to let your husband stand outside alone? Should we let him in to talk?" Lin Yi said.

"...It's the middle of summer now, and you're saying it's cold?" Zhu Suosuo chuckled.

"You have the nerve to say that? You could have just rested, but you actually closed the door? And you even doubted me? This is truly disheartening," Lin Yi sighed.

Hearing this, Jiang Nansun felt a little sorry for him and whispered, "Suosuo, should we let him in?"

"What do we do after we come in?" Zhu Suosuo asked with a smile.

Zhu Suosuo's words made Jiang Nansun give up the idea of ​​letting him in.

What will happen to them if he comes in?

Even though they were both his girlfriends, who would dare to do that kind of thing in front of his face?

"Never mind what I said." Jiang Nansun quickly covered his ears.
