Stronger by Paying Salaries and I Have 1 Billion Employees

’Even Kotsubagawa Takashi from the Neon Country and Zuckerberg from the Lighthouse Country paled in comparison to him.’

’Her only concern was that the boss was too young and she would have to accompany him on frequent business trips. What if he made inappropriate demands...’

”President Wang said you have a good memory. When you walked in just now, did I put down the mouse first or pick up my phone?”

Chen Yansen asked casually.

”Neither. Mr. Chen was holding a pen at the time,” Meng Yun replied after a moment of thought.

”Perceptive. My requirements for an assistant are high. You need to be smart, but not too smart. You have to be organized and able to prioritize,” Chen Yansen said with a slight nod.

”Mr. Chen, I’m confident I am up to the task. While studying at EMLyon Business School, I served as the executive secretary for the school’s business association. Also, I worked for three years as the executive assistant to the president of the Asian Region at Simon Consulting Company.”

Meng Yun replied, full of confidence.

Chen Yansen had seen her file, and Wang Xueting had also run a detailed background check through a third-party company. Her resume and abilities were impeccable.

Next, he asked a few more questions. Meng Yun’s answers were flawless—logical, with high emotional and intellectual intelligence.

”Welcome to Senlian Capital.”

Ten minutes later, Chen Yansen gave his approval.

”Thank you, Mr. Chen.” A flash of delight appeared in Meng Yun’s eyes. Getting an offer was, after all, something to be happy about.

Although Senlian Capital didn’t have a single publicly listed company to its name, its overall strength was immense, no less than that of a Fortune 500 enterprise.

The generous compensation and comprehensive benefits package made her very satisfied.

After Meng Yun left, Chen Yansen returned to his desk and continued browsing the top news from the last couple of days.

BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ—!

Just then, the phone to his right rang.

Chen Yansen raised his palm, and the phone flew into his hand automatically. He glanced at the caller ID: Pei Yi.

”Old Pei, what’s up?” Chen Yansen asked.

”DiDi Dache, Qian Du Delivery, and their group-buy service have started another price war. Li Yanhong announced he’s going to sink 20 billion yuan into the O2O sector,” Pei Yi explained.

”I knew he couldn’t hold back. Twenty billion? Business isn’t a competition of who has more money! Set up a video conference. Get Xiao Jun and Cheng Weixing on the line.”

Chen Yansen scoffed.

”Yes, Boss.” Pei Yi wasn’t worried; he was just reporting to his boss out of habit.

’Kuai Pao holds 60% of the group-buy market and 90% of the ride-hailing and takeout markets. With its powerful algorithms, intelligent dispatch system, and ample fulfillment capacity, what does Qian Du possibly have to compete with Kuai Pao?’

After hanging up, Chen Yansen opened Weibo and, sure enough, found a trending topic related to Li Yanhong.

’Twenty billion?’

’Who’s he trying to fool?!’

He felt there was no need for him to get involved personally, so he left the counter-attack to Pei Yi.

A short while later, Kuai Pao issued a public retort on its official Weibo account: ”We’ve got 30 billion sitting in the bank. Wonder if that’s enough to play a round with President Li?”

You say 20 billion? Then I’ll just add 10 billion more!
