One Yuan First Recharge: I'm Actually the Boss Behind a Fortune 500 Company

Wang Hao felt a little embarrassed and uneasy under their gazes.

Strictly speaking, this car was bought with their "help".

If it weren't for Yu Xinxin helping him sell alcohol and Lin Wei helping him with freelance design work, he wouldn't have had this confidence.

"Ahem," he said modestly, touching his nose.

"It was bought with a loan, it's just a means of transportation, not as amazing as you think."

His appearance actually made the two girls like him even more.

"Brother Hao, you're too modest. Being able to buy a BMW is already quite impressive!" Yu Xinxin said sincerely.

Although Lin Wei didn't say anything, Wang Hao could sense that her gaze towards him seemed to have softened a bit.

In her opinion, Wang Hao is a clean-cut man with a calm and steady personality. He is humble and unassuming, and it seems that he is also quite well-off financially.

This is a very charming man.

Of course, it's just that I think it's good.

After getting in the car, Wang Hao started the engine and drove steadily out of the underground parking garage.

Yu Xinxin and Lin Wei sat in the back row.

Perhaps because the space was more private, the two girls started to talk more.

"Sister Lin Wei, when you move in, I'll help you decorate your room!"

Yu Xinxin enthusiastically planned the famous:

"You like cool colors, right? We can buy gray or blue curtains, and pair them with a super soft wool rug; it'll definitely feel so comfortable underfoot!"

"I prefer things to be simpler." Lin Wei's voice still sounded cool, but Wang Hao saw a faint smile on her lips in the rearview mirror.

"Got it, it's that minimalist style! I get it! Leave it to me!"

Wang Hao drove quietly, listening to the two girls whispering in the back seat, and a smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.

He could sense that Lin Wei genuinely liked Yu Xinxin's personality.

One is like fire, the other like ice, yet they surprisingly complement each other.

He suddenly felt that he was not just running a company, but building a warm family.

Soon, the car arrived at the entrance of the residential area where Lin Wei lived.

"Sister Lin Wei, we've arrived."

"Okay." Lin Wei unbuckled her seatbelt. "Thank you."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Yu Xinxin waved her hands repeatedly. "Then you should go back now, and be careful on the way."

After getting out of the car, Lin Wei waved to the two people inside before turning and walking into the residential area.

Wang Hao drove Yu Xinxin back to the apartment.

After parking the car, the two of them went upstairs together.

At their respective room doors, Yu Xinxin smiled and said to Wang Hao, "Goodnight, Brother Hao."

"Good night."

Wang Hao returned to his room but did not immediately take a shower.

He took his phone out of his pocket.

As expected, Zhou Jianjun sent several unread messages when I opened the Open Player APP.

[Boss, the acquisition of Hongfa GG is complete; the contract and payment have been finalized.]

Regarding the salary issue for new employees, I've discussed it with Mr. Qian. His previous salary standard was 5500 to 6000. I personally believe this standard is reasonable.

I will arrange for someone to handle the follow-up employment contract and the re-issuance of qualifications tomorrow.

【…】

There's a whole lot more, covering everything, big and small.

The content of Zhou Jianjun's report was basically within Wang Hao's expectations.

He's been thinking about this all day.

Qian Hongfa was right; the workers in that factory were all honest and hardworking people.

When Wang Hao sees them, he sometimes thinks of his own father, who also worked in a factory his whole life, his hands covered in calluses, not a man of many words, but whose work always puts people at ease.

He really wanted to give them a raise.

Given Hongfa's previous profitability, even if each worker received an extra 1,000 yuan, the company would still have a considerable profit.

But here is the problem.

If they were given an extra thousand, their base salary would reach six thousand five or even seven thousand.

The core employees of Xingyue Media, such as Zhou Jianjun and Sister Wang, only have a base salary of six thousand yuan.

Although with various subsidies, the take-home pay is over nine thousand, the base salary is lower than that of new workers, which is unreasonable.

Wang Hao respected the workers, but the core of the company would always be Zhou Jianjun and the other six people.

Their value is irreplaceable.

After thinking for a long time, Wang Hao had an answer in his heart.

He opened the chat box and started typing.

[Old Zhou, tomorrow you need to finish up the remaining work on Hongfa GG as soon as possible.]

First, immediately renegotiate labor contracts with all workers, officially making them employees of Xingyue Media.

Secondly, regarding wages, each person will receive an additional 1000 yuan per month in basic salary on top of their existing salary.

Third, ensure they receive the full social insurance and housing fund benefits at the highest standards. Also, arrange for a meal allowance, or hire someone to cook lunch for them.

This matter must be addressed as soon as possible!

After typing this part, Wang Hao paused, then continued typing.

Also, please send a notification in the company group chat tomorrow.

Starting this month, the base salary for all existing employees of Xingyue Media will be increased by 1500 yuan per person.

Consider this a New Year's gift from the company. We hope everyone will continue to work hard in the coming year.

After sending these two messages, Wang Hao let out a long sigh of relief.

He knew that each of the seven people in his company was a treasure.

Their abilities far exceed the market average.

Wang Hao felt that offering them a base salary of 7500 was a bit low.

But you have to eat one bite at a time, and walk one step at a time.

The most important thing is to stabilize the core team and give them enough security and respect.

……

Meanwhile, in a rented room on the other side of the city.

Zhou Jianjun sat on the sofa, a half-smoked cigarette between his fingers.

The light from the phone screen illuminated his weathered face.

He felt gratified when he saw the news that the boss had given the factory's experienced workers a raise.

He's the same age as me, and he understands how difficult life is for those who are still working hard on the front lines.

His boss's decision made him feel warm.

But when he saw the second message, he was completely stunned.

All employees will have their base salary increased by 1500 yuan.

His hand holding the phone was trembling slightly.

With their current business volume, how come their boss is still willing to raise their salaries?

And it's a general price increase!

At that moment, an indescribable warmth surged up from the deepest part of his heart, instantly shattering all his rationality and pretense.

He remembered his boss's promise to him—that he would take the lead in the business battles from now on!

He remembered the despicable couple who had ruined his life and disgraced him!

Star Moon Media is his only hope for revenge!

The boss has shown him great kindness and given him a second chance at life!

Zhou Jianjun will repay this kindness with his life!

He stubbed out his cigarette, took a deep breath, picked up his phone, and replied solemnly.

Boss, rest assured! I will handle every task you assign me perfectly!

I've been working on the new employees' contracts all night, and I guarantee they'll all be finished by tomorrow morning!

[Furthermore, regarding the salary increase for all employees, on behalf of everyone in the company, I extend my highest respect to you! I will post an announcement in the group chat immediately!]

A few seconds after the message was sent, Wang Hao replied.

It consists of only five short words.

Okay, Lao Zhou, I believe in your abilities.

(P.S.: Thank you to @喜欢粉荷的刘芬夏晓兰 for the God certification, thank you to @哎覆水难收 for the character summon, thank you to @南极带的车芸 for the show, and thank you to all the godfathers for the scattered tickets. I am really grateful to everyone. There will still be four updates today.)
