Chapter 575 Lin Muxue: Showing off without me?

Let's rewind to an hour earlier.

Four Seasons Hotel Executive Suite, Study.

Two computers are placed side by side on the desk.

The desktop computer on the left is playing videos of Imperial College London's MBA online course, "Global Asset Allocation and Cross-border Fund Management".

The instructor's voice, spoken with a British accent, came from beside me.

After a while.

Lin Muxue rubbed her temples, paused the playback, and looked somewhat tired.

Picking up his phone, he opened WeChat and left a message for Tang Song: "Mr. Tang, you're coming to Hong Kong tomorrow, right? I've already booked the hotel for you. Do you need me to book your train tickets?"

"Buzzing—"

Tang Song: "Yes, I'll arrive around 11 a.m. tomorrow. I've already bought the ticket."

Lin Muxue replied quickly: 【Okay, I will pick you up at the station on time.】

Next, she sent over the precautions, procedures, and pick-up locations for those entering Hong Kong from Shenzhen, all in a clear and well-organized manner.

Putting down her phone, Lin Muxue bit her lip, beginning to look forward to Tang Song's arrival.

Tang Song's plane ticket to Shenzhen was bought by her, but he did not tell his assistant the details of his itinerary.

With her exceptional emotional intelligence, she naturally sensed that Tang Song had gone to be with his other women.

So she wisely refrained from mentioning going to keep him company.

I opened my WeChat Moments and a post caught my eye.

[Shen Yuyan: "The heartbeat of the city is something someone is always trying to get closer to. The wind in Hong Kong is a little salty, and a little wild."]

The accompanying pictures are several photos she had just taken:
The city skyline of Central at night, champagne glasses on the terrace of the Huaxia Club, blurry figures in the social scene of the financial circle, and a group photo of three people with proper smiles and composed postures.

As a former "fake socialite," she understands this kind of "reserved flaunting" all too well.

It's about showing that you're entering a new social circle, but also about maintaining a dignified and restrained demeanor.

He gave a soft hum, casually gave her a thumbs up, and complimented her.

Lin Muxue took a picture of herself working diligently and posted it on her WeChat Moments.

The text reads: "Late at night, high in the building. The words in the document are brighter than the city's neon lights."

After posting on Moments.

Lin Muxue cheered herself up and turned her gaze to the laptop on her right.

As a senior executive in a financial company, especially someone like her, she needs to use a VPN to encrypt data transmission before she can access important documents, whether she is working remotely or accessing them from an external network.

Recently, Tang Song has been busy with Songmei Apparel, and Rongliu Capital's business is stable.

She only assisted with some of the business and did not pay close attention to all developments.

Shen Yuyan's performance completely awakened her competitive spirit, and she began to seriously "catch up on her studies".

Soon, her gaze fell on a folder.

(【Internal Communication - Confidential Only】Sensitivity Level: L3 | Access is restricted to personnel with "Reading Permissions".)
This was created last weekend, and in terms of its sensitivity level, only a very small number of people have the right to view it.

As a VP-level executive and assistant to Tang Song, she naturally had this authority.

However, at that time she received an invitation from Mo Xiangwan, and was full of thoughts about the upcoming LVMH social gathering and the trip to Hong Kong.

They did not notice the new document added by Macy Yao, the HRD at headquarters.

Click to view.

[FOF-Alpha Project] | Proposed Organizational Structure Reform
[Appendix] Personnel Confidentiality Approval Process | Authority Division for New Positions
[Appendix] Document Preparation Team | Request for Assistance with Personnel Background Due Diligence

Lin Muxue frowned slightly and quickly opened the book to read.

The more she looked, the more she felt something was wrong.

This is not just an ordinary procedural document, but a systematic organizational structure design for a "large-scale private equity fund hybrid strategy"!
Due to Rongliu Capital's unique characteristics (single LP, complete control by Tangsong), the original structure of the parent company was not in line with traditional international capital, and was even less complete than Yancheng's WOFE.

There is no board of directors, nor an investment committee or management committee.

In addition, the redundancy in personnel positions makes it somewhat of a "makeshift team".

According to this new organizational structure, it will be a complete 5-layer structure.

Employee job levels will also be more strictly defined.

Based on her current annual salary, she should be classified as an Executive Director (ED), which is the second level.

At the same time, the company will also establish new departments such as the Overseas Strategy Group, the FOF Liaison Office, and the Institutional LP Relations Department.

The most shocking thing is actually the "list of candidates".

The pool includes a vice president of investment from Goldman Sachs Asia, a former risk strategist from PAG Capital, and even a candidate for fund partner from BlackRock Hong Kong, all marked as "potential hires".

"Is this...another major change about to happen?"

Lin Muxue gasped, realizing that she had been negligent and had only just noticed something so important.

She bit her lip, quickly opened her corporate email, and swiped her fingers rapidly to bring up a keyword search.

Immediately afterwards, another email with sensitive tags popped up.

[Excerpt from the meeting with M. Leonard, Head of International Affairs at Kate Trust]

It was sent to Tang Song by Simon, the vice president in charge of fundraising at the head office, the day before yesterday, and Cc copied her and five other people.

Her fingertip paused, just as she was about to click to view.

At that moment, the phone started vibrating.

【Bei Yuwei】

Lin Muxue was slightly taken aback, picked up her phone, and answered the call.

She said softly, "Hello? Yuwei."

They had already chatted on WeChat beforehand. This current top female celebrity was very polite and enthusiastic, without any airs of a star, and the two had a pleasant chat.

"Hello, Mu Xue, are you free now?" Bei Yuwei's pleasant voice came through the receiver.

"available."

"I've just checked into the Four Seasons Hotel and am sitting in the Executive Lounge on the 45th floor. Let's chat about tomorrow's LVMH banquet and get to know each other formally beforehand."

"Okay, I'll be there right away!"

"Yes, by the way, I have another guest with me, arranged by Mr. Mo."

Lin Muxue's heart stirred slightly. "Okay."

Mo Xiangwan did say before that she would arrange for two people to accompany her.

The other one, however, hadn't contacted her at all; it seemed he was with Bei Yuwei.

Is it some big star?
hang up the phone.

Lin Muxue glanced at the unopened meeting minutes again, as if she vaguely sensed their significance.

But there's no rush. Let's go meet with Bei Yuwei and the others first, and then we'll see what happens when we get back.

...

Executive VIP Lounge.

Led by a waiter, Lin Muxue walked through the spacious and quiet scenic area and entered the lounge.

Two women are sitting on a dark leather sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the sea.

As a popular young actress, she recognized Bei Yuwei at a glance.

She is thinner and more refined than she appears in the video.

Wearing a black suit jacket and white high-waisted wide-leg pants, the clean cut accentuated her tall figure. Her thick, voluminous hair was dyed with a red and blue gradient, giving her a bold and distinctive star aura.

The middle-aged woman in her thirties standing next to her had a tall and straight posture, calm eyes, and was wearing a beige suit skirt.

It was an unfamiliar face, not a celebrity.

Hearing the commotion, Bei Yuwei looked up in this direction.

Her makeup was exquisite, and her features were striking.

Their eyes met, and Bei Yuwei stood up first, a bright smile blooming on her face.

"Hello, Mu Xue, it's nice to meet you."

"Hello, Yuwei."

Lin Muxue pursed her lips, quickened her pace unconsciously, and shook hands with the other person, her expression natural.

The two shook hands warmly and looked each other over.

Bei Yuwei was friendly and enthusiastic, and sincerely praised her appearance and temperament.

Lin Muxue responded with a smile, showing no signs of nervousness.

After all, her relationship with Mo Xiangwan was what it was, and she also had a "deep sisterly bond" with Su Yu.

Even if a celebrity from Tangzong Entertainment is incredibly popular, it's hard for her to feel any sense of admiration or worship towards them now.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Lin Muxue's gaze turned to the composed middle-aged woman next to Bei Yuwei.

Before Bei Yuwei could introduce herself, the other party stood up and smiled, saying, "Hello, Ms. Lin, I am Cheng Siman from Tangyi Precision."

Lin Muxue was slightly taken aback.

I never expected that the person who came would be someone from Tangyi Precision.

Bei Yuwei quickly added in a low voice, "President Cheng is the president of Tangyi Precision Consumer Electronics Business Group and one of the most important invited guests at this LVMH Asia Pacific Elite Summit."

Upon hearing the other party's identity, Lin Muxue's heart skipped a beat.

He quickly composed himself, his tone slightly nervous: "Hello, Mr. Cheng, I've heard so much about you."

Although she had never heard of the name, she knew about Tangyi Precision.

Especially because of Tian Jing, she had conducted a thorough investigation.

Tangyi Precision is a large-scale, world-leading technology manufacturing group.

Among them, the consumer electronics sector is one of the most widely contacted and sought-after sectors within the Tangyi system.

The smart action camera she uses is from this business group.

Not to mention, there are also multiple product lines such as smart wearable devices, AR glasses, AI terminals, and laptops.

A person of this caliber would be a central figure anywhere, in no way inferior to senior executives of the LVMH Group.

She was still somewhat incredulous—Mo Xiangwan had actually arranged for such a "big shot" to accompany her into the venue.

This kind of "status" is not something ordinary people can have.

She even suspected that Su Yu had personally gone to such lengths to save face for her "little sister".

The three of them sat down in the sofa area, and a waiter brought them tea. A small group of small talk ensued.

When the conversation turned to the procedures for the LVMH dinner.

Cheng Siman said in a relaxed tone, "This dinner was actually a joint promotion between Tang Yi and LVMH. We will try to enter the fashion industry more often and carry out joint designs with them, such as customized high-end wearable devices and co-branded electronic accessories."

Lin Muxue nodded quickly: "I see. A top-tier technology company like Tangyi certainly has the resources. I look forward to the results of the cooperation between the two companies, and I will definitely support it!"

"Hehe, thank you." Cheng Siman smiled, then said, "By the way, Ms. Lin is the assistant to the general manager of Rongliu Capital, right?"

"Yes."

“Then we will soon have the opportunity to cooperate, and we hope that Ms. Lin will give us her full support at that time.”

Lin Muxue was taken aback. "What does President Cheng mean?"

Cheng Siman said gently, "I have another very important matter to discuss with Hong Kong. Our holding company, Xuanji Guangjie, is preparing for a major round of financing, and the lead investor is your company, Rongliu Capital."

"Xuanji Light Realm..." Lin Muxue repeated softly, her mind racing.

However, she had never heard of this company.

Cheng Siman explained: "We are a startup team that spun off from Tangyi Lab. Our goal is to reshape the way mobile internet interacts by using lightweight AR glasses and edge AI computing, and to create the next generation of human-computer interaction."

Mr. Mo's visit to Hong Kong this time is also about this matter. Besides Rongliu Capital, the investors this time also include Tangzong Entertainment, Qingning Technology, and others, which will be the future development centers of our companies.

"I see. I look forward to cooperating with you." Lin Muxue clenched her thighs, her heart pounding with excitement.

Although it's unclear what she specifically said, a $10 billion project led by Rongliu Capital is always exciting.

The three chatted for a few more minutes, the atmosphere warm and harmonious, with a relaxed and pleasant feeling from their newly acquainted relationship.

Bei Yuwei spoke up at the opportune moment: "President Cheng, Mu Xue, it's still early, how about we have a drink together?"

She came along not just for social obligations, but with a clear "mission".

This was something Su Yu personally instructed us to do; having a few drinks to set the mood would help us proceed more effectively.

Cheng Siman nodded slightly and smiled, "Sure, tomorrow is Saturday, I don't have any plans, I'll have a drink with you guys."

Lin Muxue hummed in agreement.

At this moment, she was full of ambition and more focused than anyone else.

These two are the people she wants to befriend.

Especially Cheng Siman, who has a major collaboration with the company in the future, naturally needs to cultivate a good relationship in advance.

At this moment.

"Ring ring—" Lin Muxue's phone suddenly rang.

【Zhang Lili Kylie】

She chuckled softly and nodded apologetically to the two of them, saying, "Excuse me, I need to take this call."

He then walked to the side.

As soon as the call connected, Zhang Lili's barely suppressed excitement came through the receiver: "Luna, did you see the news? Oh my god! My God! It's unbelievable! You're so good at keeping things under wraps, such a big thing and you didn't mention a word about it!"

(⊙_⊙)?
Lin Muxue was completely confused and asked in bewilderment, "Kylie, what...do you mean?"

“Uh…” Zhang Lili was clearly taken aback, realizing that Lin Muxue was genuinely unaware of the situation.

She took a deep breath, speaking rapidly yet trying to control her excitement: "Kate Trust and the Tang Jin family jointly invested in Rongliu to establish a multi-billion dollar fund of funds! The whole of Hong Kong is going crazy! My email, WeChat, and phone are all ringing off the hook, the financial world is about to explode!"

"Wh-what?!" Lin Muxue felt a buzzing sound in her ears and almost dropped her phone.

"Really! I reckon the company is going to undergo a massive restructuring soon, which is a huge opportunity for you and for us!" Zhang Lili was almost incoherent. "Luna, this is a pivotal moment in our lives!"

Lin Muxue's throat tightened, and her breathing became somewhat disordered. She spoke with difficulty, "Let me find out what's going on first."

She suddenly realized that those confidential internal documents and emails must all be about this important matter.

"Okay, I'll send you the news!" The other party quickly hung up.

Immediately afterwards, my phone started vibrating repeatedly.

Zhang Lili forwarded a lot of news, all from well-known media outlets.

[Kate Trust & Tangjin Family Office jointly invest in Rongliu Capital, launching a multi-billion dollar fund of funds]

[Hong Kong's capital market is in turmoil: The local private equity landscape may be reshaped]

…In addition, messages were sent from multiple internal company chat groups, as well as from some friends in the financial industry.

Lin Muxue's fingertips trembled as she tapped the news article and scanned it line by line.

The shock and ecstasy in his eyes were almost bursting.

Good heavens!
Tens of billions of dollars?! The platform has jumped two levels!
This also means that the prestige of Empress Muxue has undergone another epic evolution.

Moreover, the timing of this revelation coincided with the eve of her attendance at an LVMH social gathering.

She could already imagine the reaction from everyone when she handed out her business card and introduced herself.

Her cheeks quickly flushed with excitement, and the light in her eyes almost overflowed.

This emotion came fiercely and intensely, like a volcanic eruption, eager to find an outlet.

I'm so excited I feel like I need to pee.

But the Tang and Song dynasties no longer exist.

She couldn't just run back to her room and cast a spell right there, could she?

This is too disgraceful!
How to do? !

Shen Yuyan!!
It's Friday night, and as usual, there will be many internal gatherings and LP social events at the Huaxia Club.

This is a major industry news story of this magnitude.

She could almost imagine how much of a show-off Shen Yuyan, that old green tea, would act on the spot, and how smug she would be!

How could we let her enjoy such a wonderful thing all to herself?!

Lin Muxue took a deep breath, her emotions almost making her high heels fly off, and walked unsteadily back to the sofa.

In a natural tone, she suggested, "Yuwei, President Cheng, how about we go sit at the Huaxia Club next door? The viewing terrace there is particularly beautiful, and the night view and atmosphere are also quite nice."

“The Huaxia Association? Sure, I’ve always wanted to go.” Bei Yuwei nodded immediately.

Cheng Siman also gently echoed.

Lin Muxue bit her lip, trying to suppress her emotions, and while speaking, she made a phone call to her personal consultant, Aria.

Soon, a private room at the Huaxia Club was booked, and a vehicle was arranged.

The elevator slowly descended.

Lin Muxue's heartbeat became clearer and clearer.

Both brought two female companions.

Do those two classmates who are "old green tea" have the class of their own with this kind of setup?

She is the president of Tangyi Precision's business group and a top starlet at Tangzong Entertainment.

Fame, talent, and good looks—it's got it all.

Tonight's trip will not only allow me to have a great time.

They could also have a good "discussion" with Shen Yuyan about this major event that has shaken the entire Hong Kong.

Although the two usually dislike each other and often engage in open and covert struggles.

But in crucial moments, having such a formidable opponent by your side, someone you can share emotions with and banter with, is actually quite enjoyable.

Otherwise, she really would suffer internal injuries from holding it in.

……

Huaxia Club, viewing terrace.

“Rongliu Capital’s AUM will increase fivefold, from $20 billion to $120 billion.”

"With this size... it could directly apply for the sovereign wealth fund's direct investment channel, right?"

"That Miss Shen, Shirley, who was drinking over there just now, seems to be Chairman Rong Liu's special assistant."

"Confluent Capital, yes, that's Confluent Capital."

...

The sounds of conversation on the terrace exploded like sparks from a lit fuse.

The previously composed and elegant financial professionals now all looked down at their phones, their expressions gradually shifting from restraint to shock, their eyes becoming intense and complex.

Standing at the edge of the crowd, Ji Yingying felt a sudden, overwhelming shock.

The smile on his face froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly involuntarily.

The champagne in my hand swayed slightly, almost spilling.

She quickly pulled out her phone, her fingertips trembling as she clicked on the news link.

An expression of disbelief crossed his face.

Zhou Wei, who was standing next to him, was also no longer calm. He took a deep breath and lowered his voice, saying, "Yingying, let's go and talk to Miss Shen."

As a partner and member of the investment committee at Huayin Capital, his status is actually quite high.

However, it depends on who you're comparing it to.

Faced with a newly emerging giant who has received a joint bet from two major capital giants, he must restrain all his pride.

Shen Yuyan is a key figure around Chairman Rongliu.

Their statuses are naturally incomparable.

Even a casual remark she makes at a party can influence fluctuations in the capital market.

Ji Yingying's knuckles turned slightly white, and her lips twitched intermittently.

She tried to say something, but found her throat tight and she couldn't squeeze out a single word.

She had just said that Rongliu was only a small-to-medium-sized private equity firm, and its growth potential was not as good as that of the listed industrial group she worked for.

He was also implying to Bai Menglin not to be greedy for the small platform she had in front of her.

The slap in the face came so quickly that it made her spin around in place.

If you go up there now, you really are... a complete clown.

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Zhou Wei frowned slightly.

Ji Yingying quickly concealed her emotions and replied with a forced laugh, "Okay, okay, President Zhou."

The two were walking towards Shen Yuyan.

The crowd, as if drawn by a magnet, spontaneously began to gather around.

Shen Yuyan instantly became the center of attention.

Bai Menglin, standing to the side, blushed deeply.

He stood still, his throat bobbing, his chest heaving violently.

She pinched her palm hard, and the sharp pain reminded her that this was all real, not a dream!
$121 billion in AUM?

The Don King Family Office? The Kate Trust?

She almost gave up an opportunity that could have completely changed the course of her life!

Regardless of the strength of its backing capital, Rongliu Capital has already entered the ranks of "new first-tier PE" based solely on its asset management scale of 121 billion yuan.

In Hong Kong, in addition to branches of international giants such as Blackstone, Carlyle, UFJ, and SAIF Partners, there are also branches of these companies.

Rongliu has effectively joined the first tier.

Moreover, it entered the market with the resources of a fund of funds, the support of two top-tier capital firms, and a kingly presence.

This institution is bound to become the most sought-after financial talent in Hong Kong!
If I could join now…

Furthermore, given that Shen Yuyan is a close confidante of the chairman, her career path...

The more Bai Menglin thought about it, the more frightened she became.

She bit her tongue and gently patted Shen Yuyan's arm.

He said in a low voice, "Yu Yan, my matter isn't urgent, we can talk about it later. Now you... go ahead and do your work."

As she spoke, she pointed to the people around her.

"Om-"

Shen Yuyan snapped out of her daze, her ears quickly filled with a cacophony of comments and congratulations.

She looked up at the crowd that was rapidly approaching her.

The person who was aloof and reserved just moments ago is now speaking with fervor, his eyes burning with passion, and his voice brimming with enthusiasm.

They, who were originally nonchalant, are now quietly introducing themselves, handing over their business cards, and exchanging pleasantries.

Those "greedy" and prejudiced gazes all withdrew.

Just moments ago, Ji Yingying was confident, assertive, and haughty, but now her face was stiff and her voice was hoarse.

The smile on the face of Mr. Zhou, the CEO of Huayin Capital, who was standing next to her, was more genuine than ever before; the usual "selective scrutiny" of investors had quietly disappeared.

Instead, it was replaced by an attitude of utmost respect.

The circle that was just talking about REIT funds and exit strategies is now completely revolving around her.

this is the truth.

In the primary market, nothing is more decisive than "real money".

This time, it was the Kate Trust and the Don King family office that made the move.

The former is a top global family trust management institution, controlling the assets of the most core group of ultra-high-net-worth clients in North America and even the world.

The latter is a newly established conglomerate spanning Asia and Europe, whose influence has long penetrated into multiple fields such as finance, technology, and real estate.

This is not an ordinary joint investment.

Rather, it was a complete "resource infusion".

At that moment, the crown filled with gold fell on her head without warning.

She sensed an unprecedented "shift in public sentiment".

Power, respect, the flow of resources...

They were gathering at her feet.

Shen Yuyan's blood was boiling, and she was so excited that she almost lost control, and her body slowly began to flow.

Every nerve trembled slightly under the gaze of those around them.

However, this state did not last long.

After a moment, Shen Yuyan took a deep breath and quickly adjusted her breathing and expression.

Her face regained its gentle and refined appearance.

As she accepted the business card, she cleverly avoided asking questions by saying that "the company has not yet disclosed the details."

Not a drop leaked, everything was done perfectly.

She stood at the center of the crowd, exuding professionalism, calmness, and restraint in her speech.

She became the role she had always dreamed of.

He exuded an unprecedented confidence and radiated vitality.

Mr. Tang, I absolutely adore you!

No wonder some of the company's core executives "mysteriously disappeared"—now I understand!

She fully understands Tang Song and the company's "secrecy" of this matter.

They even deeply agreed with it.

This level of cooperation, if leaked in advance, could trigger market fluctuations and even regulatory intervention.

Before the process is fully implemented and the disclosure process is completed, strict confidentiality must be maintained with most employees.

Although she is the chairman's special assistant, she is mainly responsible for the overall investment coordination of Tang Song's personal projects, and she has just joined the company and has no access to the highest-level institutional strategic level.

However, what surprised her was how calm Lin Muxue was.

Such a big matter was never revealed to her in the slightest.

No wonder she seemed indifferent to personnel matters at headquarters; it turns out she knew the company was going to restructure its organization.

In this respect, she began to have a newfound respect for the assistant.

At this moment.

In sight.

A tall and sexy figure slowly appeared in the crowd.

A nonchalant smile graced her face, as if she were admiring the night view or surveying a battlefield.

There were two other people with her.

One of them looked very familiar; she was Bei Yuwei, a female celebrity whom Xu Qing really liked.

The other one was dressed in a low-key and capable manner, and although not particularly striking in appearance, she possessed a calm and captivating aura.

Shen Yuyan was stunned, almost thinking she was seeing things.

However, she quickly realized what was happening, and her eyelids trembled.

I knew this "innate pretentious saint" was up to his old tricks again.

We can't leave you out of any occasion, right?
Luna, you're really energetic!
However, this appearance did not disrupt the atmosphere at the scene.

The crowd remained gathered around Shen Yuyan, their voices rising and falling in discussion.

However, as they approached, some sharp-eyed people quietly cast their gazes towards them.

His gaze swept past Bei Yuwei and finally settled on the composed and calm middle-aged woman.

"...Is it General Manager Cheng from Tangyi?"

A low growl arose.

Several professionals in related fields nearby turned to look at the source of the sound, their expressions immediately changing.

Zhou Wei, who was standing opposite Shen Yuyan, suddenly changed his expression and almost instinctively stepped forward to meet her.

His face was full of smiles: "Mr. Cheng, it's been a long time. I never expected to run into you in Hong Kong."

Shen Yuyan was taken aback, and her gaze quickly shifted from Lin Muxue to the "unremarkable-looking" lady.

The surrounding chatter began to rise, a mix of Mandarin, Cantonese, and English.

"Is this the president of Tangyi Precision's consumer electronics business group?"

"I heard that she was once Ouyang Xianyue's executive secretary, and later served as the director of President Tang Yi's office. She is the real core member."

"No wonder she has such a commanding presence..."

Shen Yuyan's eyes widened instantly, and her throat tightened.

Xiaoxue, you're fucking weird!
