Reborn with Consumption System-Chapter 393 - 196 The Company is Established

Appearances can be deceptive.

The seemingly flamboyant Wanwan eventually only got a bonus of 30,000 yuan, while the plain yet well-behaved Xiao Seventeen, with her absolute strength, claimed 70,000 yuan from the 100,000-yuan bonus pool. The gap wasn’t just double, it took a sharp turn; this was no longer a matter of attitude but a limitation of talent. It’s better to leave out the specifics.

Han Lie indulged himself outside for a full two and a half days, finally alleviating the pent-up frustration that hadn’t been effectively released before. Later, both of them were obedient. Wanwan negotiated with Han Lie, "Dear, I don’t want money anymore. How about you visit us once a week, okay?"

"It depends on the opportunity," Han Lie replied without promising anything to Wanwan, but he gave Xiao Seventeen a secret glance. This girl is no ordinary person... There wasn’t much difference between the two of them in terms of looks or physique, so those who knew, knew where the real difference lay.

Having experienced better, Wanwan’s slightly-over-90 beauty and physique suddenly seemed very bland. Unsurprisingly, Han Lie probably wouldn’t bother with Wanwan anymore, but he was quite keen on pairing up Xiao Seventeen with Wang Tianqing—they were on the same level and complemented each other very well. However, Han Lie wasn’t in a rush to bring this up. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

「In the blink of an eye, it was Thursday, and it was time to get some proper work done.」

Leaving the Ritz-Carlton, Han Lie headed straight for CITIC Square at No. 859 North Sichuan Road in Hongkou District. Upon arrival downstairs, Liang Wu was waiting by the roadside.

"Boss, the office is all set up," she said. Liang Wu was dressed in classic OL attire today: a tight-fitting black skirt, a small blazer, and black stockings. Goodness, she practically took your breath away. Her pear-shaped physique was incredibly suited to the uniform look.

If it weren’t for Han Lie’s recent indulgence, he might not have been able to resist her charms. Every man who saw her couldn’t help but stare, swallowing hard. It’s not that she was that beautiful, but she fulfilled every office environment male fantasy about women—get it? That’s also a kind of talent...

They took the elevator up to the 12th floor, where a glass door at the end of the right corridor led to an office area with the company name on the door—Magic Capital Zhongcheng Meisai Investment LLC. This was not the real starting point of Han Lie’s career, just a temporary private equity fund, so the name and nature of the company weren’t important.

Liang Wu used her fingerprint to open the company door; opposite was a reception desk. Lü Shuli hurriedly stood up from the reception desk to greet Han Lie with a bow.

"President Han, good afternoon," she greeted.

"Huh? Lü, what are you doing here?" Han Lie asked.

With a smile, Lü Shuli explained, "I was assigned by Liu Minghao to give you a hand for a while. I’m not very good at other things, so I can only guard the door for you!"

Her attitude is very respectful, yet she doesn’t adopt a purely subordinate posture toward me. Interesting.

Han Lie nodded and was about to ask who else was there, when a group of people came out from inside. Liu Minghao, Dou Mingde, Old Zhang, Sun Changzhe, Jin Meilun, Fat Sheep Beta, Gamma, and Delta—all the shareholders arrived except for Pan Shengwu and his daughter.

"Teacher Han!"

"Come quickly, check out your office. If there are any issues, I’ll get them fixed right away!"

"Chief Officer Han, wish you great success!"

A flurry of chatter ensued as Han Lie was pulled away to have a look at the company’s layout. The company’s total area was less than 300 square meters, with one General Manager’s office, one Director’s office, a high-security trading room, a large open office space, and three separate small offices. The General Manager’s office was less than 20 square meters, while Han Lie’s Director’s office was a full 80 square meters, with inner and outer partitions.

Pushing open the office’s main door revealed an outer area for secretaries and assistants. Another door opened into Han Lie’s personal office space. To the right of this area, a small door led to a rest room with an en-suite bathroom—the bed inside was quite large. On the spacious desk, three large monitors were placed side by side. The setup was quite impressive, better than expected.

"How did everything get done so fast?" Han Lie wondered.

"’Tsk," Old Dou casually said, "With the current market, aren’t there plenty of collapsing funds?"

Liu Minghao chimed in with a smile, "I directly bought a company shell and just finished the changeover."

The outer office area was quite spacious and already had a few employees. Old Zhang pulled over a middle-aged man who had been following the group and introduced him to Han Lie. "Old Zhao, Zhao Zhongshi, your Auntie Zhao’s cousin and our company’s General Manager cum legal representative."

Zhao Zhongshi extended both hands to shake Han Lie’s, bowing rather low. "Teacher Han, I’m here to serve as your steward, the point man for handling daily trivial matters. Whatever it is, just command me!"

His attitude is quite correct.

Thus, Han Lie also covered Zhao Zhongshi’s hands with his left, his smile warming a bit. "I will be relying on you from now on. Please teach me, General Manager Zhao," Han Lie replied.

"Not at all! It’s I who should learn from you!" Zhao Zhongshi remained bowed until Han Lie patted him on the shoulder. Only then did he straighten up and walk behind Han Lie.

Setting aside the question of competence, at least he’s someone who knows his place. For a fund like this, with at most a dozen employees, even putting a dog in the General Manager position wouldn’t cause any big problems.

With a total capital contribution of 150 million yuan, the Pan father and daughter pair were the largest shareholders, owning 37.5% of the company. It was only natural to place one of their own in the General Manager position of the company. Watch the house, do some logistical work, earn a salary—how big of a deal can it be?

The other shareholders not only had no objections but, in front of Old Zhao, even began to discuss various stakeholder interests openly.
