A moment later.

After the two reached an agreement, Ma Yun and Lin Zhi left the banquet venue temporarily, before the banquet was completely over...

We went to a bank that was still open on the street.

Lin Zhi immediately transferred 10 yuan to Ma Yun's account.

Having accomplished all this, Ma Yun visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

He then smiled casually at Lin Zhi and said, "How about we convert this money into company shares for you?"

"When new investment funds come in, whether you cash out and withdraw your shares or continue to hold them, these investment shares will appreciate significantly..."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely make you a fortune!"

"I, Ma Yun, keep my word! I guarantee honesty and fair dealings with everyone, young and old..."

Lin Zhi also smiled and said, "Okay, let's change it to Ali's shares."

"I believe that with your management, I won't lose this money."

"Looking forward to the day when Ahri becomes a Fortune 500 giant."

"I still have complete faith in you..."

"As the saying goes, sincerity can move mountains. I believe that Heaven will see our efforts and take pity on us and bless us."

"The future—will surely belong to those of us who persevere and strive..."

Hearing Lin Zhi's words, which were full of unconditional trust, encouragement, and great wisdom, Ma Yun couldn't help but feel a little excited and immediately replied, "Yes—the future definitely belongs to all of us Ali people!"

"We are making history right now...making a legend!"

"The world will witness all of this in the near future!"

That's all.

Ma Yun exudes an intangible aura of self-confidence.

From Lin Zhi's perspective, at this moment, Ma Yun's father, whose heart was filled with lofty ambitions, confidence, and fighting spirit, seemed to suddenly become incredibly tall, almost comparable to a giant.

That's pure personal charm!

No wonder he will be able to lead Alibaba to invincibility, reach the pinnacle, and become a legend of an era.

Indeed, no successful person is simple!

They are among the most outstanding people of our time...

After investing another 10 yuan, which went into Ali's account, Ma Yun and Lin Zhi later revised and signed some shareholding agreements, increasing the previous shareholding ratio from about 16% to 20%.

Because Alibaba is now taking shape, its valuation has naturally risen accordingly, making it incomparable to what it was before.

Therefore, if he invests money in Ma Yun again in the future, the percentage of equity he will receive will only decrease.

Not as many as at the beginning.

but!

Having invested a mere 20 yuan in two separate transactions, Lin Zhi acquired a 20% initial stake in Alibaba. He was extremely satisfied with this serendipitous investment.

If he can maintain this shareholding ratio for more than ten years, until the peak of Ali's stock price, he will become a trillionaire...

Then we can cash it out later?

Wouldn't you be all smiles and delighted?

However, for this beautiful wish to come true, he would have to "fill in" money for every round of financing for Ali in the future.

Otherwise, the current shareholding will only become more diluted as more institutions invest in Alibaba in the future.

But no matter what, this investment is a sure thing, and could even be very profitable.

It all depends on how much we can ultimately earn...

Because at present, besides Ma Yun himself holding about 40% of Alibaba's shares, he also holds 20%, making him the second largest individual shareholder.

As long as he continues to invest and maintains his shareholding, he can live a completely comfortable life in ten years, even if he stops being a celebrity and acting.

What wonderful days ahead... they beckon to him!

Just thinking about it is wonderful!

After settling these trivial matters with Ma Yun, Lin Zhi returned home that night with a surge of emotions, constantly imagining a bright future, which caused him to have a poor night's sleep.

After daybreak, I was just about to go back to sleep.

Suddenly, I received a call from Li Xiaoran.

"Hey, Sister Ran."

Lin Zhi yawned, listlessly holding his phone as he spoke with Li Xiaoran.

He wondered to himself, why was Da Ran calling him so early in the morning?

Could it be... that he wants to ask me out?

"Ah-Zhi, are you up yet?"

"Why do I hear you yawning? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Li Xiaoran asked softly on the phone.

"Ha~"

"I was thinking about things last night, so I didn't go to sleep until late."

"It's not that I didn't sleep well, I just woke up at dawn, haha..."

Lin Zhi yawned again, then said with a smile.

"Oh, what are you thinking about that's keeping you up so late?"

Li Xiaoran seemed a little curious and asked tentatively.

"It's nothing!"

"Let's not talk about the trivial matters of work and life."

"By the way, Sister Ran, you called me because you needed something, right?"

Lin Zhi cut straight to the point and asked.

Li Xiaoran seemed to consider for two seconds before saying softly, "Well, I bought a car a few days ago and want to drive it on the road, but I'm a little scared, so... I wanted to ask if you have time to come with me to practice driving?"

"Sure, I have time today. What kind of car did you buy?" Lin Zhi rolled over, getting ready to get out of bed, and asked.

"Honda," Li Xiaoran replied. "I just picked it up yesterday, and it's parked downstairs right now. I don't even dare to start it, for fear of hitting someone, haha..."

As he spoke, he chuckled softly, a little embarrassed.

"Surely not? Your driver's license... you didn't buy it, did you?" Lin Zhi said with a laugh as he rolled out of bed.

"Hehe." Li Xiaoran on the other end of the phone chuckled a few times.

It wasn't mentioned whether the driver's license was obtained through their own test or purchased.

However, in those days, most cars on the market were manual transmission, which was quite difficult to drive. It wasn't uncommon for girls to fail the driving test and have someone take the test for them or simply buy a driver's license.

So Li Xiaoran didn't say anything at the moment, and Lin Zhi probably guessed that her driver's license might not have been obtained legitimately...

of course!

It's also possible that Lin Zhi was simply overthinking things.

but!

Regardless of the reason, all of this points to one thing—that is… Li Xiaoran’s driving skills must be absolutely terrible.

This is absolutely certain!

After finishing the phone call and agreeing to meet in a little while, Lin Zhi went to accompany Li Xiaoran to her driving practice. After that, Lin Zhi put down his phone and quickly got dressed and got out of bed.

After washing up and eating something, Lin Zhi was worried that Li Xiaoran would be waiting too long, so he quickly went downstairs, took a taxi, and headed to Li Xiaoran's place.

When he arrived at Li Xiaoran's apartment building, he saw this woman with skin as white as snow and beauty surpassing even that of a celestial being, already waiting patiently by a car in the parking area...

"Hi, good morning, Sister Ran."

Lin Zhi quickly jogged over, and when he got to Li Xiaoran, he could smell a fresh jasmine perfume from afar. Mixed with Li Xiaoran's unique body fragrance, Lin Zhi's nose twitched. It smelled especially good, and his mood instantly brightened up.
