Jade spoke slowly and deliberately, her voice softening slightly.
"Let's leave it at that, Mr. Otti. It's better for both of us. Putting Pinocchio on the market is simply a way to expand the influence of Grand Event Star."
With the company's help, not only can a stable environment be provided for Pinocone's development, but the best guarantee can also be provided for the turmoil that has just occurred.
Our depositary order allows you to invest in the company in your personal capacity. I believe this is the best way to demonstrate the value of Pinocchio's assets.
Jade spread his hands, and Audi looked at Lin Yuan, who was looking at the terminal. After noticing the gaze, Lin Yuan nodded slightly.
After some deep thought, a conflicted look appeared on Old Emperor's face. He fell silent, constantly weighing the pros and cons.
"Mr. Audi, our company is actually very reasonable."
Lin Yuan shut down the terminal and suddenly spoke, attracting Audi's attention.
“If you can’t accept it right now, we can find a more compromise. I think you’ve already considered this option.”
The door to the reception room suddenly opened, and a red figure walked in with the crisp sound of heels.
“Mr. Otti, the navigator of the Star Train, Ms. Himeko, is also one of the future shareholders of Pinocene.”
Jade raised her hand to introduce Old Emperor Au.
"Let a trusted third party hold shares in Pinocchio, if that makes you feel any better."
Lin Yuan looked up, somewhat uninterested.
............
While the company, the family, and the people in charge of the train were still dividing up Pinocene's future, the Gypsy also welcomed many guests.
The robin, who will be singing at the Harmonious Music Festival, has already arrived and is ready for the stage.
However, when this glamorous singer was alone, she seemed preoccupied and full of worries.
Himeko was accompanied by the other passengers from the Starry Sky Train. Hoshi arrived like a curious child, embarking on her exploration (smashing and opening treasure chests) amidst cheers.
Meanwhile, at the bar counter on the airship, the seafaring ranger Potio was enjoying drinks and chatting. Surprisingly, opposite him was a holographic projection of gold dust.
They drank the most potent liquor, yet their mouths seemed to taste blood—the blood of the "beloved" Potio spoke of.
Throughout the airship, professors were pondering, tall knights were praising and proclaiming the way of pure beauty, and Hanabi, disguised as a waiter, was relentlessly distributing small firework buttons, plotting that wicked idea.
Firefly, using the alias Ms. Samuel, also arrived at the pool on the deck, with the help of the Star Core Hunter Silver Wolf.
At this moment, the main characters of Pinocchio have all gathered here, their fates intertwined, to bring the Star of the Event journey to a final close in the long-awaited Harmonious Ceremony.
..............
As a joyful atmosphere rose above the airship, the conversation finally came to an end.
As the saying goes, important matters should be discussed in smaller meetings.
Although formal talks between the company and the family have not yet begun, this dialogue has already laid the framework for subsequent negotiations.
Under various pressures, the elder Otto finally agreed to the company's proposal, with the company leading the investment to assist Pinocchio in raising funds.
The company will inject funds into Pinocene in batches to acquire a 30% stake. The remaining 70% will still be controlled by the four major family groups, ensuring absolute family control over Pinocene.
As for the company's shares, 5% were transferred to Starry Sky Train, and the remaining 5% were held by Lin Yuan himself.
When he heard the result, Lin Yuan, who was sitting on the sofa, did not change his expression at all.
Although he could still recall the days when he fought wits and courage against the system for a few thousand credits, Lin Yuan could only say to him now—I have no interest in money.
The verbal agreement was thus reached. Perhaps Lin Yuan's shares might be diluted during Pinocone's second round of financing or IPO in the future, but he knew that his interests would never be diminished.
"That concludes our conversation. The Harmonious Music Ceremony is about to begin, so please don't miss it."
Lin Yuan stood up, looked around at everyone, nodded, and prepared to leave first.
"Your Excellency Lin Yuan, you've worked hard. This meeting was entirely thanks to you. Let Toppa handle the formal meetings that follow. I'm sure she won't let us down."
“Yes, yes,” Topa agreed readily.
Lin Yuan nodded silently, then looked at Himeko who was smiling.
"Your Excellency, the children are here too. You can chat with them when you have time. Xing keeps talking about you."
Himeko expressed her deep gratitude to Lin Yuan for revealing the inside information to her in advance through the terminal, which enabled the train crew to achieve satisfactory results.
"Then goodbye, everyone."
Lin Yuan waved and walked away amidst a variety of gazes.
He walked down the steps, passed the neatly arranged, brightly lit corridor, and arrived at the viewing platform to lean on the railing and gaze into the distance.
A gentle breeze blew, but his mind remained unmoved; only his gaze deepened.
Footsteps sounded, and Lin Yuan glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw a beautiful figure walking towards him hesitantly.
"Miss Robin, is there something you need from me?"
Lin Yuan turned around and spoke softly.
"You are Mr. Lin Yuan, right?"
Seeing the other party nod slightly, the robin lowered its voice and gathered its thoughts:
"Sir, a friend of mine asked me to ask you a question, um... I don't know how to answer it."
"Just repeat what you said verbatim," Lin Yuan said with a slight smile.
"Hmm... that friend wanted me to ask you a question—Does He really exist?"
.............
Chapter 351 Grand Ceremony Opening
"Him?"
Upon hearing the robin's question, Lin Yuan's heart stirred, and he began to ponder.
But his expression remained calm as he looked at the girl with chicken wings in front of him and said with a light laugh:
"Miss Robin, is the friend you're talking about yourself?"
"Huh?" The robin paused slightly, then quickly raised her delicate hand and waved it. "No, I was just helping myself..."
"So that's what your brother asked you to ask on Sunday, right?"
Under Lin Yuan's meaningful gaze, the robin opened its beak, but in the end, it just nodded silently.
"Why did your brother... ask you to ask me this?"
Lin Yuan's gaze was somewhat peculiar.
After some thought, he had roughly figured out the reason for the matter.
Perhaps, when he seized the authority of the crowned one, when he lowered his gaze to erase regrets, when he left the material universe and looked back for the last time, he may have inadvertently glanced at the Sun God.
Could it be that Sunday thus established a connection with him and became his follower?
Lin Yuan's expression turned somewhat strange, and the robin explained in a low voice:
"Your Excellency, I don't know why my brother sent me to see you. He simply asked me to find a guardian in Pinocchio."
I asked Ms. Himeko of the Starry Sky Train and learned what you look like. I never expected to meet you here.
"I see." Lin Yuan nodded silently. It seems that Sunday still remembers some things.
Looking at the singer with his hands clasped in front of his chest, eagerly awaiting an answer, Lin Yuan didn't reply. Instead, he asked with great interest:
"What are the family's plans regarding your brother?"
"Well, the result wasn't good. But I believe my brother will definitely..." The robin lowered his head slightly and didn't say anything more.
"So, you've spoken with Jade? You want to make a deal with the company, right?"
Hearing Lin Yuan's voice, she was startled and suddenly looked up.
She had only met Jade by chance and chatted with her briefly not long ago, which sparked a few thoughts in her mind, but she never expected that the young man in front of her already knew about it.
Seeing the bird singer's reaction, Lin Yuan understood.
He pulled two business cards from his pocket, handed them to the girl in front of him, and said casually:
"You and your brother, both Geminis, are both very promising and talented."
"Jade can see your value, so I can naturally offer you a business opportunity... If you need help in the future, please contact me, and I can step in to protect you."
His eyes were bright, and his voice was gentle:
“You know, Miss Robin, your brother and I still have unresolved karmic ties. One day, you will come looking for me. I think you don’t want him… to be unable to find his own path, do you?”
"Miss Robin, the Music Festival is about to begin!"
Accompanied by hurried footsteps, the family's makeup artist found the place and called out from behind.
The robin turned back and forced a smile at the makeup artist, but in her heart, she was recalling Lin Yuan's words, and her eyes flashed with confusion and a little unease.
She turned around absentmindedly and heard Lin Yuan's voice coming from behind her.
"You can tell him about your brother's question. He... doesn't exist, but he still exists. He exists in everyone's heart. One day, he will wake up."
The sound drifted away on the wind, and the robin paused, turned its head, only to find that the spot was empty.
............
While strolling around on the Huichangshi, Lin Yuan took the opportunity to try out the origami bird matching game.
As the victory symbol appeared on the arcade screen, a smile crept onto his lips.
This joy stemmed from both the victory in the game and the chance encounter just now.
Both Robin and Sunday possess certain special qualities; when he tries to win someone over, he will naturally follow through.
What surprised him most was Sunday's situation. If this person could truly establish a connection with him and receive his foundational power in the future, it would be of great significance to Lin Yuan.
Imagine if Lin Yuan could have a group of subordinates who could share his power, then his great cause would be accomplished.
He had a premonition that the key to this was related to the subspace he had created.
Lin Yuan wanted to give his unique space a nice name—Heaven, Ruins, Land of No Worries, Realm of Truth? He considered many names, but was never satisfied, so he had to put them aside for the time being. (A reader submits a piece of writing.)
Before he knew it, Lin Yuan had reached the bow of the ship, and what he saw before him shocked him.
