Reborn 10 years later: First, save 100 million Bitcoins

Supervisor Zhao Jinxin's words were like a bolt from the blue.

Everyone was already feeling down because of the stock market losses, and now they're hearing that they can't even get their salaries paid.

This is a double blow!

For a moment... my mentality completely collapsed.

Zhao Jinxin continued, "Originally, I wanted to tell everyone a few days later, thinking... maybe the company could hold on, maybe things would get better, but..."

"But... as your supervisor, I also have to consider your situation. After all, I'm just an employee too. If the company goes out of business... you can start looking for jobs in advance, instead of having to start looking for them later."

"Of course, there's no need for everyone to panic too much. [General Manager Gao] is trying to raise funds, after all, our company is about to transform and enter the short video field."

"Under these circumstances, if an investor takes a liking to our company and is willing to invest, we can weather this financial crisis."

"In short, I estimate that in the end we should... probably... maybe we'll be able to secure investment."

Even Zhao Jinxin himself lacked confidence when he said it.

From an objective perspective, Zhao Jinxin was indeed doing it for everyone's own good, giving them time to prepare mentally.

As he said: If things don't work out, everyone can find jobs in advance so they don't have to wait until they are completely unemployed to start looking for work.

Besides, since a meeting was already held today, even if Zhao Jinxin didn't say anything, the heads of other departments would have already told the employees.

Once revealed, it will spread like wildfire, from one person to ten, from ten to a hundred, and will quickly become a widespread rumor.

As soon as Zhao Jinxin finished speaking, the entire operations department immediately became excited.

Everyone chimed in with their own opinions, saying all sorts of things.

"Oh no! Why is the company suddenly going bankrupt?"

"There's nothing we can do. With the development of the times, the GIF creation software our company is currently using is outdated."

"Didn't you keep saying you were going to transition to short videos? Haven't the tech team developed any new software yet?"

"Please, it's not that easy to make. Besides... I suspect that the reason our company is having financial problems is because we've poured all our money into making short video software, which is why we're going bankrupt faster."

"No, it hasn't gone bankrupt yet, don't say that."

"Does it matter? They've already given us this kind of information, which proves... the company is basically going to close down."

"I'm really fed up. I put all my money into Innovent Biologics stock, and not only is Innovent Biologics losing money, but now I'm about to lose my job."

"Me too. I bought 10 worth of Yingchuang shares, and I'm about to lose my job. If Yingchuang keeps falling, I'll be devastated."

"Don't say anything more. Your job only pays 4000 yuan a month. If you lose it, it's fine. The one who should be the most upset is Lu Ke."

"He's a deputy manager, earning eight or nine thousand a month. If he loses his job, it won't be easy for him to find another one with such a high salary. Besides, he bought 30 worth of Yingchuang stock."

"Look at him... After Supervisor Zhao Jinxin finished speaking, Lu Ke's expression... made me truly understand what it means to be ashen-faced."

"Goodness, I still prefer his arrogant and unruly demeanor from earlier; it looked really cocky."

"Xiao Feng's words really came true. He should really cherish this job; he won't be able to do it for much longer."

For a time, the entire department was almost paralyzed, and everyone was filled with anxiety.

Only Xiao Feng was not worried at all; on the contrary, he was a little excited.

Given the current situation, the company's boss will first try to raise funds and attract investors, but initially this will be fraught with difficulties and ineffective.

After all, a company of this size can't be saved with just 100 million; it would require at least several million, so it's difficult to secure funding immediately.

Xiao Feng was waiting, waiting until the boss was at his wit's end and about to reach his limit. That was when Xiao Feng would truly offer help in his time of need.

In times of need, a timely act of kindness will make the boss even more grateful and sincere, and he will likely receive a larger share of the company.

Xiao Feng is not a greedy person.

Getting 30% would be fine.

But if you approach them now and offer to invest, you can only get a maximum of 10% of the same amount of money.

Of course, Xiao Feng wouldn't have to wait too long either, because in his memory... KS eventually managed to secure investment.

Therefore, Xiao Feng had to time things perfectly to maximize his profits.

In addition... there's one more trick.

Adding this trick will make it even more effective.

"Xiao Feng, I'm leaving." Just then, Zhang Yang whispered over: "The situation is like this now. Anyway, my salary isn't high, only 4500 a month. If I lose it, I lose it. I'll just find another job."

In his previous life, Zhang Yang immediately quit his job, and in this life... even the lines he's saying are exactly the same.

Following Zhang Yang's lead, Xiao Feng asked, "So, what are your plans for the future?"

"No." Zhang Yang's mood wasn't high either: "Although losing this job is fine, finding another one... sigh, it's not easy."

"And then there's the internship period... adapting to a new environment... I estimate I won't even make 4500 a month... I'd be lucky to find a job that pays 4000."

"I'm not worried about anything else, what I'm most worried about is that they won't let me take a paid break to poop."

Thinking about this made Zhang Yang feel even more upset.

This company is pretty good; at least no one cares about Zhang Yang's paid morning toilet break.

If I go to a new company... well, that's hard to say.

Xiao Feng had actually considered Zhang Yang's situation long ago; all of this was within the plan.

"Zhang Yang, actually I think... this company has a pretty good future. You can stay and observe for a while instead of resigning," Xiao Feng suggested meaningfully.

Although Zhang Yang didn't quite understand why, he now trusted Xiao Feng a lot, mainly because Zhang Yang had made a small profit in the last World Cup and was still very grateful to Xiao Feng.

Zhang Yang immediately changed his tune: "Xiao Feng, if that's what you're saying, then I'll change my mind and continue doing it."

"Huh?" Xiao Feng was also quite surprised: "You changed your mind so easily?"

"Yeah, that's right." Zhang Yang answered almost without thinking. "Xiao Feng, actually I've been quite regretful these past two days, especially after seeing Han Xueqi make tens of thousands by following your stock picks. I'm so envious."

"Don't let my usual carefree attitude fool you, these past two nights when I get home I've been thinking, 'I should have bought it with you.'"

"After all, I won the World Cup last time, and I still had more than 3 in my account. If I had bought the same amount as Han Xueqi last week, I would have more than 5 now."

"But there's nothing to regret, since I don't play the stock market at all. But this incident made me realize that you're like the protagonist in a novel, with your own halo."

"To put it bluntly, I feel like you have good luck about you, so I really trust you now."

"..." After hearing Zhang Yang finish speaking, Xiao Feng also retorted with a black line on his face, "You've been reading too many novels... This is the real world."

Zhang Yang chuckled: "I know, it was just a metaphor. Anyway, I believe you now."

"Since you suggest I stay, then I will definitely stay. If our boss, Mr. Gao, can't secure any investment and the company has to go bankrupt, then it's not too late for me to find another job then."

"Anyway, I have tens of thousands of yuan in my account, enough for me to live comfortably for half a year even if I don't work. Besides, with my salary of only four or five thousand a month, it's not hard to find a job outside."

Zhang Yang spoke his mind as if he were carefree, appearing relaxed, but in reality, he was under pressure.

Ultimately, nobody wants to lose a familiar job and then have to adapt to a new one.

Wu Peng, who was at the workstation next to him, also heard the conversation between Xiao Feng and Zhang Yang, and he was also very disappointed at the moment.

In short, nobody wants to lose their job.

Just then, Xiao Feng intentionally patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder. His voice was very soft, but he spoke very clearly, just enough for Wu Peng, who was standing next to him, to hear.

"Don't worry, Zhang Yang, this company won't go under. Don't forget, I made over 500 million yuan in stocks last week."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yang suddenly looked at Xiao Feng, hesitated for only 3 seconds, and then suddenly realized what he meant.

Zhang Yang already knew that Xiao Feng had earned more than 500 million last week, but he hadn't thought about it at all just now.

And now… even a fool could understand what Xiao Feng meant.

After Zhang Yang realized what had happened, he was also somewhat excited.

"Xiao Feng, do you mean you're planning to invest in our company?"

"Not necessarily," Xiao Feng said hesitantly. "Mainly... I do have some spare cash, and I'm still considering it."

Xiao Feng's words... though not loud, were clearly heard by Wu Peng who was standing next to him.

Xiao Feng knew very well that Wu Peng was a big mouth and couldn't keep anything to himself.

Upon hearing this news, Wu Peng's eyes lit up, and his pupils darted around rapidly.

What if I secretly tell Boss Gao about this?

If we get President Gao to come and ask Xiao Feng to invest, maybe Xiao Feng won't hesitate anymore.

This might actually come to fruition.

If the company is saved, then I won't lose my job.

Moreover, Mr. Gao should thank me for telling him this secret, and a raise is just around the corner.

I'm a genius.
