Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside.

Chapter 1649 Let's shoot first, even if there's no guarantee of success.
Misfortunes never come singly, but good fortune never comes in pairs, and it arrives today.

Not only did Anita Koch bring Han Li good news today, but he also made progress when he called private detective agencies and headhunting firms.

The private detective agency has thoroughly investigated Huo Jianning's recent work and income situation. Now they are just waiting to meet with Han Li, the client, to pay the remaining balance and then deliver the goods.

After receiving Han Li's case, the headhunting firm first screened the talents recorded in their databases in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia.

The result was pretty much what they expected: there were plenty of people skilled in business management, but it was almost impossible to find someone familiar with Hong Kong's customs and traditions, as well as its laws and regulations.

As a result, headhunting firms set their sights on Hong Kongers who studied business management at well-known universities in Europe and America.

After several rounds of selection, a person named Ji Zehao was finally chosen. He graduated from the Irwin School of Business at Fenderbirt University in the United States a few years ago.

Ji Zehao performed exceptionally well during his school years, winning numerous awards. After graduation, he joined a certain Kang International Real Estate Company in Los Angeles.

However, because of his skin color, even though Ji Zehao has achieved some remarkable results in the company, he is still ostracized by his colleagues, who often show him contempt and ridicule.

Therefore, after the headhunting firm contacted Ji Zehao a few times, the matter was considered settled by them.

Later, the headhunting firm will give Han Li all the details about Ji Zehao, including his situation during his school years, his performance after joining the company, and specific successful cases.

If Han Li feels the information is acceptable after reviewing it, then he can proceed with the interview.

If you are satisfied after a detailed discussion in person, the remaining issues will be about salary and benefits.
However, this kind of thing is a matter of the ruler choosing his subjects and the subjects choosing their ruler. If the salary and benefits offered by Han Li can satisfy Ji Zehao, then the employment relationship between the two parties can be considered temporarily established.

temporary?

The next period is the trial period, which usually lasts two to three months.

If Ji Zehao's performance during his probationary period does not satisfy the employer, Han Li can communicate and negotiate with a headhunting company to discuss whether to extend the probationary period or choose another target.

Next, Han Li went to see the detective agency and obtained information about Huo Jianning's recent work and income from them.

Huo Jianning's memory was similar to Han Li's; he joined Li's group company in 79.

After working there for a while, Huo Jianning made the same choice as many young people in Hong Kong last autumn: to get rid of her status as an employee and start her own business.

Two months later, Huo Jianning partnered with her friend to open an accounting firm.

Although they were very enthusiastic, they didn't bring in much business, and after deducting rent, utilities, and other expenses each month, they had very little money left.

However, the firm had been in business for less than a year. Huo Jianning and his friends knew that this was an inevitable step in starting a business. Once the firm gained a reputation, they would have more and more clients, and then they wouldn't have to worry about making money.

Looking at the information the detective agency had gathered about Huo Jianning, Han Li knew that someone like him, embarking on the path of entrepreneurship, would basically not turn back until he hit a wall.

Now, let alone someone like Han Li who has no reputation, it's impossible for him to ask Huo Jianning to do something. Even if his former boss asked her, it might not work.

However, after a moment's thought, Han Li decided to first set a trap for Huo Jianning, so that she would have another option after his business failed. If Huo Jianning still chose to go back to work for Li's group, it would just be Han Li's bad luck; but if she chose him, then the bait wouldn't have been wasted.

Next, Han Li met with the headhunting company, received the relevant information about Ji Zehao, and after reviewing it, decided to meet with him.

After Han Li and the other headhunters left, he took out the information from the detective agency and used the coffee shop's phone to call Huo Jianning's accounting firm.

Han Li said on the phone that he had a business deal to discuss, but he didn't go into details. After giving the address of the coffee shop, he directly asked Huo Jianning to come over to talk.

Han Li didn't wait long; in the time it takes to drink a cup of coffee, Huo Jianning walked over carrying a briefcase.

After confirming, Han Li ordered Huo Jianning a cup of coffee and asked her to sit down and talk slowly.

Next, Han Li first praised Huo Jianning for being young, promising, and having a bright future, saying that she would definitely achieve great things in the future. In short, he said whatever sounded good and whatever entrepreneurs liked to hear.

In terms of business, Han Li used Hongtu Investment Company and Huanyu Real Estate Co., Ltd., which were affiliated with Guan Zhilin, as bait to hand over this year's audit business to them.

During this time, he also subtly indicated that if Huo Jianning was willing, and with the consent of his firm's partners, Han Li could hire her part-time and entrust her with the management of all the assets of both companies.

However, this was the first time the two had met. Han Li only mentioned it vaguely once, and then they chatted casually. Finally, he took Huo Jianning out for lunch before letting him leave.

[To avoid any misunderstandings about the situation in China when you read this, here's a brief explanation.]

Hong Kong's financial system is different from that in mainland China; it uses the English system.

First, in China, finance is divided into two positions: cashier and accountant, and regulations stipulate that the two cannot be held concurrently.

However, an accountant in Hong Kong can simultaneously fulfill both the roles of accountant and cashier. In other words, an accountant in Hong Kong can not only collect money and do bookkeeping, but also make payments.

However, such a system is quite risky and prone to various problems, which is why accounting firms emerged.

As for accounting firms, the differences in services offered between the two locations are not significant.

However, accounting firms in Hong Kong focus more on internal control, auditing, bookkeeping, cash flow verification, risk assessment, and ensuring that their employers' funds and interests are not harmed, etc.

This is why Han Li hired Kang Cuilan as an accountant at Huanyu Real Estate Co., Ltd. Of course, he could also hire two people at the same time to serve as accountant and cashier respectively.

However, Han Li was unfamiliar with Hong Kong and had no capable people at his disposal.

In addition, since the company doesn't have much business at the moment, Han Li doesn't need to do accounting or evade taxes.

It's safer and more worry-free to entrust your funds to two strangers than to sign a contract with an accounting firm to conduct internal audits and checks periodically.

After personally seeing Huo Jianning out of the coffee shop, Han Li returned to his original seat, took out his notebook, and wrote down what needed to be noted before dialing the number of Anita Koch, who was already waiting anxiously.
