Stronger by Paying Salaries and I Have 1 Billion Employees

’So everything he said before was just to get me to sell my shares,’ he thought. And here he’d actually believed Hou Jun came to reminisce with him.

At that moment, the lights were still blazing in the Gaode Map Headquarters building.

「The next morning.」

Chen Yansen, Gao Weilin, and Song Yuncheng drove to No. 18 Changsheng Road. As soon as their car stopped, they saw Cheng Congwu and a middle-aged man in gold-rimmed glasses approaching to greet them.

”President Chen, this is the Chairman of Gaode, Mr. Hou Jun.”

Cheng Congwu said by way of a simple introduction.

”President Hou, a pleasure. I’d like to take a tour first, if you two don’t mind?”

Chen Yansen asked with a smile, secretly sizing up Hou Jun.

According to Gao Weilin’s research, the man was a graduate of Yan University with a degree in ancient texts, yet he had managed to become the chairman of a car dealership (Datong Industry). That alone spoke volumes about his capabilities.

Then, he leveraged Datong Industry’s resources and network to found Gaode Map, even snatching a major order from Toyota right out from under Siwei Map.

It had to be said: people who studied history were all masters of manipulation.

With a single glance, Chen Yansen could tell: Hou Jun hadn’t withdrawn from Gaode’s daily operations because he was losing the power struggle against Cheng Congwu.
