During this time, Wang Shuo's life changed a little.
Lina Gerk moved into the small villa he was renting.
The two began their shameless life of cohabitation.
But this didn't affect Wang Shuo's self-discipline in the slightest.
He still left the house at 5 a.m. every morning.
He was surprised to discover that some of the talk on the internet was just lies.
Not only did a woman not affect his discipline and speed, she actually made him even more motivated.
Incidentally, he also invested in Lina Gerk's studio.
It wasn't just because they were together; Wang Shuo felt the business actually seemed quite promising.
And the investment wasn't huge.
As an angel investor, he put in 500,000 euros for a 40% stake.
Lina Gerk held 51%, with the remaining 9% of the shares given to her designer friend.
At Lina Gerk's insistence that their relationship and business remain separate, the two signed a contract and established the company in Dusseldorf.
