Chapter 88: Valuation Adjustment Mechanism Agreement

Shen Huai's face revealed a look of shock.

Lin Yeman laughed even more wantonly: "Shen Huai, are you unaware that Lu Kang, the head of Ryan Group, was once your father's comrade-in-arms?"

"What, a comrade-in-arms?"

Hearing this, Shen Huai's eyes darkened: "How do you know so much about the Shen Family's affairs?"

Lin Yeman smiled sweetly: "I don't just know that; I also know that if your father hadn't been quick-witted and kicked away a landmine at Lu Kang's feet, there would be no Ryan Technology today."

She leaned into Shen Huai's ear and said with a faint smile: "Your father is the savior of the head of Ryan Group."

"Originally, for an international group like Ryan, it was indeed impossible to choose an artist who just debuted like Li Xinran as a Spokesperson."

Changing the subject, Lin Yeman's eyes lifted with a faint smile: "But now that this connection exists, the nature of things has changed."

"Lu Kang has always been obedient to whatever his savior says."

"If Uncle Shen could say a few words in Lu Kang's ear, this matter might take a turn."

Hearing this, Shen Huai's pupils widened even further.

In moments of life and death, saving someone—he had never heard Shen Zhiyuan mention such a thing.

To be honest, when Lin Yeman said these things, Shen Huai's first reaction was even to doubt it.

He did not believe his father, Shen Zhiyuan, could have a side that would sacrifice himself for others.

In his eyes.

Shen Zhiyuan was selfish and self-interested, capable of doing anything to achieve his goals; how could he possibly risk his life to save someone else? Was there some misunderstanding in this? And from another perspective.

There was no gossip about such a thing on the internet either.

How on earth did Lin Yeman know about it? Seeming to see through Shen Huai's confusion.

Lin Yeman spoke up to add: "This news was told to me by my father."

"Uncle Shen, that is your father, got happy drinking one day and told this story to my father."

"It just so happened that I was outside the study that day and heard a bit of it."

Hearing this reason, Shen Huai's eyes narrowed slightly.

Such a ridiculous reason, yet she could make it up.

But Lin Yeman's expression was normal, and no flaws could be seen on the surface.

Shen Huai was too lazy to expose her; after all, the news had already leaked, and even if he pursued it, it would be of no use.

Moreover, this was not the point at the moment.

"But what does what you said have to do with me?"

Yang Lan blinked her eyes and looked at Lin Yeman, "Uncle Shen is Shen Huai's father; even if someone needs to plead, it should be his own son who opens his mouth."

"Why do you want me to make this call?"

This question from Yang Lan was exactly what Shen Huai wanted to ask.

Lin Yeman looked at the two of them cunningly and said unhurriedly: "Naturally, it's because your words are more effective than Shen Huai's."

Taking a deep breath, Lin Yeman explained: "Shen Huai, don't you and your father always argue before you can even get three sentences out?"

"……That, um." Shen Huai had to nod and admit this fact.

"Since that's the case, the candidate to lobby your father naturally cannot be you."

Lin Yeman turned her head and looked at Yang Lan again: "Now the whole internet is buzzing with rumors that the only son of the Shen Family had a romance with Li Xinran, and the Shen Family hasn't come forward to deny it, so everyone assumes this relationship is true."

"Then why don't we go with the flow and make the fake into reality?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Huai's pupils trembled instantly: "You mean……?"

Lin Yeman nodded and said: "Business is business; utilizing this wave of traffic to the extreme is what anyone would choose."

"Didn't your father want you to pursue the Yang Family's daughter? Now that the artists in Yang Lan's company happen to need Uncle Shen's help, I think as long as Big Sister can call Uncle Shen, Uncle Shen will definitely agree."

"After all, the world is driven by profit. 'You have to spend money to make money'; just putting in a word for Ryan Group can bring him closer to the Yang Family—a matter with a hundred benefits and no harm, Uncle Shen will certainly not refuse."

Shen Huai fell silent.

What Lin Yeman said, although full of the flavor of egoism.

But from the perspective of maximizing profit, it did have some logic.

He rested his chin on his hand and pondered for a moment, then said: "However, although having the halo of a savior is good, it might not be enough. It is true that Uncle Shen wants to win over the Yang Family, but for Ryan to have grown so large, Lu Kang is naturally not a puppet."

"I'm afraid we will have to bring out more bait."

After hearing Shen Huai's analysis.

Lin Yeman was not surprised at all.

She curled her lips calmly and took out her phone to open a document she had prepared long ago.

"This is a Valuation Adjustment Mechanism Agreement."

"As long as Ryan dares to let Li Xinran be the Spokesperson, I can sign a one-year Valuation Adjustment Mechanism Agreement with them, guaranteeing that during the endorsement period, Ryan's net profit growth will be no less than 10%."

"What? 10%?!"

Yang Lan looked up in shock: "Do you know that for a group company like Ryan, maintaining a 5% growth in annual financial reports is already considered far ahead of the market."

"And you are betting 10%? Are you crazy! Just because of one Spokesperson?"

Shen Huai felt that Lin Yeman's decision was not only crazy but also too arrogant: "If the Valuation Adjustment Mechanism Agreement fails, what do you plan to do?"

Hearing this, Lin Yeman spoke calmly: "Then I will voluntarily give up all my shares in Xingyao and transfer the film and television contracts of all the first-tier artists in my hands."

"?!" Yang Lan's mouth twitched.

This sister of hers was truly crazy! Although on the surface, Yang Lan owned 80% of the shares of Xingyao and was the major shareholder with real decision-making power.

However, what no one knew was.

She and Lin Yeman had privately signed a hidden shareholding agreement.

In other words.

The 51% of shares under her own name were, in fact, all Lin Yeman's.

If Lin Yeman failed the Valuation Adjustment Mechanism Agreement, it would mean that 51% of Xingyao's shares would fall into the hands of others.

To summarize it crudely.

This betting agreement carries extremely high risk! Once it fails, Xingyao will change hands!

Standing between the two of them, Shen Huai naturally understood what it would mean once this Valuation Adjustment Mechanism Agreement took effect.

He glanced at Lin Yeman, his tone somewhat worried: "Lin Yeman, do you know..."

"I know."

Lin Yeman's eyes revealed a kind of calm madness, "I can bear this price."

"Is there any difference between Li Xinran and other artists? She is actually worth you attaching such importance to her." Yang Lan could not help but ask.

"This has nothing to do with whether it is Li Xinran or not."

Lin Yeman lifted her eyes indifferently and looked at Yang Lan.

"The current traffic on Li Xinran is almost the sum of all first-tier traffic stars."

"If utilized properly, the benefits it can bring are inestimable."

With a sharp glint flickering in her eyes for a long time, her tone deepened as she spoke calmly: "Sister, I want to push Xingyao to the very pinnacle of the industry."

"Let it become an existence that all peers shrink back from, and become the most profitable company in the entertainment industry."

"This is also the thing I most want to do before I leave."
