In the afternoon, several key staff members of Chi Xing Studio finished lunch and arrived early at the meeting room to wait.

Today’s agenda was somewhat rushed, but the topic was very significant.

Everyone had already studied Lin Wan’s proposal in the morning and felt it had great potential.

On one hand, it aligned with the current trend, directly addressing the pain points of tenants and landlords in the rental process. On the other hand, it also made excellent use of the VR features of “Real Estate Agent Simulator,” making a revolutionary innovation in the “online house viewing” model.

The only question now was whether Shenhua Real Estate and Sloth Apartments would support this project, and to what extent.

Liang Qianfan was already a familiar face to everyone. During the development of “Real Estate Agent Simulator,” the team at Chi Xing Studio had interacted with him frequently.

Thanks to the various professional data provided by Sloth Apartments, “Real Estate Agent Simulator” could be made so hardcore, withstanding the scrutiny of many professionals.

Moreover, Liang Qianfan operated Sloth Apartments according to Mr. Pei’s vision, and Mr. Pei would likely fully support such a strong move against Zhujia Group.

What made everyone a bit uneasy was how the representative from Shenhua Real Estate would respond.

Many people at Chi Xing Studio knew about Lin Wan’s relationship with Shenhua Group, since Lin Chang had visited several times when the studio was established and had provided support.

But in the business world, even brothers need to keep clear accounts.

Shenhua Real Estate was one of the three pillar industries of Shenhua Group, and every decision was no trivial matter.

Although Shenhua Real Estate had previously funded a GOG esports team to support Tenda, that money had been casually allocated from the football budget and wasn’t a big deal.

But this proposal might require Shenhua Real Estate to make some adjustments to its operating model, which was a major change that could have ripple effects throughout the organization. It couldn’t just be done on the basis of personal relationships.

If Shenhua Real Estate only provided symbolic support, or didn’t acknowledge this model at all, then relying solely on Chi Xing Studio and Sloth Apartments would make the launch of this model very slow.

After all, Sloth Apartments’ current influence was mainly in Jingzhou and couldn’t quickly spread across the country.

So, everyone was a bit nervous.

After a short wait, footsteps could be heard outside—Lin Wan and Cai Jiudong were bringing the guests in.

“Please, have a seat,” Cai Jiudong guided the two to their seats.

Liang Qianfan needed no introduction, as everyone knew him.

The other person wasn’t Lin Chang, whom they had met before, but someone older.

Many had seen his photos online before and recognized him: it was Lin Zhou, the President of Shenhua Real Estate, who had personally come!

Everyone couldn’t help but marvel secretly—this was truly impressive…

Just a simple proposal had brought the President of Shenhua Real Estate to Jingzhou for a meeting, canceling his other work. This was indeed real preferential treatment for his younger sister.

Lin Wan’s expression remained as usual. Like in the morning meeting, she got straight to the point, briefly describing the achievements of “Real Estate Agent Simulator” so far, then conducting an in-depth analysis of the current rental market, and explaining in detail the specific cooperation model between Chi Xing Studio, Shenhua Real Estate, and Sloth Apartments.

Lin Zhou and Liang Qianfan both listened attentively without interrupting.

For Liang Qianfan, he was initially a bit surprised but quickly accepted calmly.

His surprise mainly came from not expecting Lin Wan to think beyond the game itself, using it as a springboard to present such a grand proposal.

But on second thought, didn’t this perfectly align with the development plan Mr. Pei had set for Sloth Apartments?

Mr. Pei had just issued instructions for him to expand Sloth Apartments to other cities, and now Chi Xing Studio’s “Real Estate Agent Simulator” was coordinating perfectly, providing escort support.

It was possible that Mr. Pei had planned this when designing the game and had discussed it with Lin Wan in advance.

It was also possible that after working at Tenda for so long, Lin Wan had been influenced by Mr. Pei’s guidance and had also seen this rare opportunity, thus making the same decision as Mr. Pei.

But regardless, this aligned with Mr. Pei’s strategic direction, so Liang Qianfan naturally fully supported it.

As for Lin Zhou, his mindset had also undergone some subtle changes, though he didn’t express them.

Lin Wan had one older sister and two older brothers, plus old Mr. Lin. Among this family, Lin Zhou could be said to be the most doting toward Lin Wan.

Whether it was reducing Tenda’s rent initially or later funding the establishment of a GOG team to support GPL, Lin Zhou had always been generous in such matters, giving Lin Wan whatever she wanted.

But in the beginning, Lin Zhou hadn’t been particularly optimistic about Lin Wan’s choices.

He just felt that no matter what trouble Lin Wan caused, the family could always back her up, so there was nothing to worry about. He let her go out and fool around.

But unexpectedly, she actually made something of herself.

Watching Tenda Group develop at an incredible speed and achieve success in various fields in unimaginable ways, Lin Zhou had stopped taking it lightly.

Of course, Lin Wan’s position had also risen, but Lin Zhou felt this was just because Lin Wan was lucky to have joined a company that would inevitably take off during its initial period.

The company’s success was due to Mr. Pei’s extraordinary talent and probably had little to do with Lin Wan.

But today, listening to Lin Wan explain her newly planned proposal and plans at the meeting, Lin Zhou suddenly realized he might have been wrong.

Lin Wan’s growth and progress at Tenda over these years were quite remarkable!

Extending from gaming to reality, integrating resources from Shenhua Real Estate and Sloth Apartments, and seizing the opportunity to enter the rental market—this was indeed a very bold decision.

This vision and courage seemed to have been truly inherited from Mr. Pei.

Looking at the details of this proposal, from the initial market analysis, precise insights into the industry, to the specific cooperation plans—all were quite brilliant and showed foresight.

This indicated that Lin Wan had indeed achieved incredible growth at Tenda, growth that might even be more far-reaching than what she would have gained by taking over at Shenhua Group!

After all, the entire model of Shenhua Group had been largely set during old Mr. Lin’s time. It had been fine in the past, but now it seemed somewhat conservative, and symptoms of big company disease were gradually emerging.

Tenda, on the other hand, was a standout of the new era, having fought its way up from the bottom through fierce competition. Compared to Shenhua Group, it better represented the direction of the new era.

In fact, after taking over Shenhua Real Estate a few years ago, Lin Zhou had been constantly seeking transformation, pushing Shenhua Real Estate toward high-end development while striving to align with young people’s lifestyles.

Compared to those real estate developers keen on “middle-aged and elderly style decoration,” Shenhua Real Estate had taken the lead in launching house types targeting young people, with good results.

But it was just “good results,” without achieving a fundamental breakthrough.

Lin Zhou had always been very troubled by this, as he couldn’t figure out how to take it a step further.

But listening to Lin Wan today, he suddenly felt enlightened.

Why had Lin Zhou himself always been unable to find a good way to break through?

Because relying solely on real estate was too thin!

If Lin Wan’s proposal could truly take shape, it would be equivalent to connecting multiple dimensions such as gaming, renting, and buying, while integrating the game brand of Tenda Games and Chi Xing Studio, the reputation of Sloth Apartments in the rental field, and the accumulated experience of Shenhua Real Estate in the real estate business.

For Shenhua Real Estate, allocating a portion of houses for the rental model as a showcase would indeed mean sacrificing some profit initially.

But it was also worth considering that Shenhua Real Estate spent astronomical sums on promotional expenses every year, including the budget for buying sports teams.

If they could gain good promotional effects through this opportunity, what harm was there in giving up some profit?

Realizing this, Lin Zhou started to see Lin Wan in a new light.

He hadn’t expected that while learning how to make games at Tenda, Lin Wan had also learned many other things.

Although Lin Wan might not understand, or might even be completely ignorant of, the detailed business of Shenhua Real Estate, the thinking model cultivated at Tenda was extremely valuable.

Market sensitivity, multi-industry linkage, high reputation among young people… all of these undoubtedly bore Tenda’s mark.

Now it seemed that Lin Wan had learned quite a bit of Mr. Pei’s expertise, even surpassing her brother Lin Zhou in some areas.

And this was exactly what a leader needed.

As a leader, one might not be so proficient in specific business operations, but must be able to see the big picture and make correct decisions.

Of course, compared to Mr. Pei, Lin Wan still had a long way to go, especially in terms of long-term planning and talent management.

But there was no need to rush. At Lin Wan’s current growth rate, becoming an all-rounder like Mr. Pei was just a matter of time.

Soon, Lin Wan finished her explanation.

She looked at Lin Zhou and Liang Qianfan: “This is a preliminary plan and will be further refined. Do either of you have any opinions or suggestions?”

Liang Qianfan said: “Perfect timing. Sloth Apartments also has plans to expand to other cities in the next phase. I fully support this.”

“But there’s one point that could be added: as far as I know, Dream Venture invested in Starbird Fitness, which has been developing its business around Doubt VR glasses and is growing very rapidly.”

“I think we could deeply collaborate with stores like Slackin’ Internet Café and Starbird Fitness, such as providing subsidies on prices or promoting around these stores. This should be twice as effective with half the effort.”

Lin Wan nodded: “Yes, that makes sense. I’ll add it to the proposal right away.”

After saying this, she looked at Lin Zhou.

Lin Zhou nodded: “Approved.”

“I will make this project a key focus for Shenhua Real Estate in the next phase and fully promote it.”

“I hope we can integrate the brands of Shenhua Real Estate, Chi Xing Studio, and Sloth Apartments, opening up a brand new channel.”

Lin Wan was very pleased: “Great, then let’s work quickly to create a detailed cooperation plan. Let’s take advantage of the current public opinion environment to make a big splash!”
