Chapter 13: Mistaken Judgment

That afternoon, inside a five-star hotel.

Wang Kun had just finished a business meeting when he received a call from Jiang Xiaoguo.

Once the call connected, Jiang Xiaoguo quickly explained her purpose.

"Wang Kun, I promise you, the product developed by this company really has huge potential."

"If you invest, you'll definitely make a fortune."

Wang Kun chuckled as he held the phone, and asked directly, "How much investment does this company need?"

"At present, the company's valuation is twenty million."

"Xiaoguo, tell the owner of this company that I'll invest. I'll have someone contact you regarding the details of the contract and signing."

For Wang Kun, a company valued at just twenty million was nothing. With his cash flow, investing in such a company was barely a drop in the bucket.

Moreover, Wang Kun, who knew the storyline well, was aware that after this company suddenly shot to fame, its valuation would skyrocket.

Investing in such a promising company now not only posed no risk to him, but could soon bring him returns several times, even dozens of times over.

Naturally, Wang Kun would never refuse an opportunity like this.

Soon after hanging up on Jiang Xiaoguo, Wang Kun immediately called his private banking assistant, instructing her about the investment.

Currently, Wang Kun's personal account held nearly eight billion in funds.

With such a massive sum sitting in his account, any bank would treat him like royalty.

For banks, any client with a personal account holding more than tens of millions in liquid funds is a super VIP.

Such clients always have dedicated account managers assigned to them at every bank.

And someone like Wang Kun, with billions in his personal account, was in a league of his own.

Though the banks had recently been recommending various funds to him, and advising him to switch his liquid deposits to fixed-term accounts, Wang Kun had directly refused.

Moments later, in his hotel room, after making a few brief calls and arrangements, Wang Kun turned to the alluring woman beside him.

The fire within him, once subdued, was quickly ignited again, and soon the room echoed with the sounds of fierce combat.

This woman was a contracted artist under his entertainment company: fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged, and skilled in the art of seduction.

Having just arrived in this world, Wang Kun found it impossible to resist such temptation.

He had only been at the company a few days before this enchanting vixen claimed him.

After several days of close interaction, Wang Kun had arranged a series of new promotional resources for her.

To Wang Kun, whether he promoted one Liang Shuang or a few more, it made no difference.

More than a week later, an app called Red Slash exploded overnight on the internet.

That morning, Zhou Xun, who was browsing trending news, stumbled upon an article about the Red Slash app.

The news left Zhou Xun stunned.

He had a sharp memory, and despite the days that had passed, he remembered that this wildly successful app was the very project he had previously rejected.

He recalled that Jiang Xiaoguo had discovered this project. At that thought, Zhou Xun immediately summoned Jiang Xiaoguo to his office.

"Director Zhou, you wanted to see me?"

Upon seeing her, Zhou Xun wasted no words and spoke directly.

"I want you to prepare a report on Red Slash for me."

"Director Zhou, are you thinking of investing in Red Slash?" Jiang Xiaoguo couldn't help but feel a surge of satisfaction.

She had strongly recommended the Red Slash project to Zhou Xun before, but he had flatly rejected it. Now, seeing Zhou Xun so anxious, she felt an indescribable sense of delight.
