Chapter 34

"You will get used to it gradually in the future. We still have a lot to do." Chen Weidong looked at the harbor in the distance, and his thoughts drifted to nowhere.

...

The "Infinity" company in [-] was undergoing new changes every day, among which the computer company can be said to have changed the most.

Due to Chen Weidong's "indifference", computer companies can no longer be described as rich and powerful.

Almost every day, new members join.

In just one year, "Infinity" has grown from nothing to the largest Internet company in Hong Kong.

The company's business has also expanded from instant messaging to games, music, and novels.

There are more than 700 employees on the job.

Looking at the entire Southeast Asia, it may not be impossible to be the first.

A series of college graduates such as "Xiangjiang University", "Xiangjiang University of Science and Technology", "Xiangjiang University of Science and Technology" are proud to receive offers from "Infinity" company.

This does not mean how high-end the technical level of Infinity Company is, but because the salary it gives is too high.

Even the interns who have just joined the company can earn a staggering 3.5 Hong Kong dollars a month.

Due to the financial turmoil triggered by Thailand, it began to sweep the entire Asia-Pacific region.

Xiangjiang has also been greatly affected. Many companies closed down, layoffs, and cut wages.

In this period when everyone is in danger and is afraid of being fired as soon as he wakes up, it is very rare for the "infinity" company to continue to expand.

The first few managers of the company now have a staggering annual salary + bonus of more than 3000 million. Even buying a house in Central is not a problem, and it is even higher than the average income of second-tier stars.

Some news media even dubbed them "employee emperors".

Of course, in addition to the corresponding ability, if you want to enter the management, there are still some hard indicators.

For example, Hong Kong locals like to mix English and Cantonese when communicating with colleagues.

Although the company did not expressly stipulate that it is not allowed, it has also stated in private that everyone must be able to speak Mandarin.

Otherwise, there is absolutely no chance of promotion.

In the words of the big boss, "Xiangjiang has already returned, and you can't even speak Mandarin, so you are not a Chinese."

In the future, when the company develops and sends you to the mainland, how will you communicate with people?

Song Yunjiang implemented this point very well, and the management also promoted many technicians from the mainland.

The company adopts a flexible working system, weekends and weekends, and various subsidies. The leaders like to give bonuses from time to time. It seems that there is too much money and no place to spend it.

Even Li Xier complained many times that the company next door was treated so well that she wanted to work there.

This is the status quo of the "infinity" company.

It is also because it is too humane, and from time to time there will be relatives of individual local employees who insist on coming to the company for "inspection".

The company's management is required to arrange more work for the employees. The reason is: working less than eight hours a day is too easy. This is not in line with the fine tradition of hard work of Xiangjiang people.

Some employees of the company were speechless after hearing this.

Fortunately, the company's top executives came forward and explained to them in a good voice, "We are a high-tech company, not a factory assembly line. It is all arranged by the above, and there is nothing we can do about it."

Only in this way can I appease those grandmas, old grandpas, etc. who come to the company after having morning tea every day and have nothing to do.

Similarly, because the salary offered by "Infinity" was far higher than the industry average, Song Yunjiang, the company's vice-president, was attacked on his way off work.

Fortunately, only suffered some skin trauma, coupled with the timely discovery by passers-by, this saved the day.

However, after this incident happened, the company's top management attached great importance to it.

Immediately spent huge sums of money to the security company to recruit several "veterans" to be responsible for the personal safety of the company's executives.

It took several million to upgrade the computer equipment of the local police station, which completely prevented similar things from happening.

In [-], July.

The financial crisis broke out in Thailand, because the economic development models of Southeast Asian countries are similar, and the economic lifelines are also similar.

After the fall of the Thai baht, the Philippine peso, Indonesian rupiah, and Malaysian ringgit have also become targets of international speculators.

Immediately afterwards, the crisis spread to regions and countries such as Dawan, Xiangjiang and South Korea.

In order to raise the cost of funds for international speculators, interest rates in many countries have risen sharply, causing extremely serious internal economic losses.

Enterprises closed down, bank bad debts soared, and the unemployment rate rose. The financial turmoil in Southeast Asia has completely evolved into the Asian financial crisis.

October [-].

Daiwan Bank gave up defending the NT dollar, which lost 6.5% of its value in a single day.

The crisis spread to Hong Kong's stock and foreign exchange markets.

Rumors began to spread in the market that Xiangjiang may give up defending the linked exchange rate system in order to maintain its competitiveness.

At the same time, some people in the business community have also done a little work, and have made remarks in public many times, suggesting that the Hong Kong dollar should be devalued.

As a result, those media who heard that wind is rain, took the opportunity to make a big news, which triggered a large-scale Hong Kong dollar selling frenzy.

From October 10 to 21, the Hong Kong dollar was continuously under heavy selling pressure in Hong Kong, London, New York and other markets.

The Hang Seng Index also fell from 13601.01 points to 10426.3 points to close, a sharp drop of 3174 points in just four days.

On the 28th, the Hang Seng Index fell below the 9000-point mark.

Countless stockholders wailed, October was simply the darkest month in the Hong Kong stock market in decades.

"Mr. Chen, fortunately you told us to withdraw all the funds in advance, otherwise we will suffer a lot of losses."

Infinity's trading director, Feng Yiwen, said happily in the office at this time.

In a month, the stock market plummeted by 30%. Countless financial institutions in Central were trapped. Only Infinity was not affected at all. It has to be said that this is a miracle.

"This is just the first wave of tentative attacks by international hot money." Chen Weidong frowned.

During this period, Infinity Fund was almost stuck, following the international hot money to attack in the Philippines, Malaysia, and Singapore.

It can be said that international speculators have no misses in their bullets, and they hit every target. Whoever they aim at will fall.

And the baptism of these battles has also made the company's internal traders more proficient in responding to international hot money attacks.

From being unable to keep up with the operation at the beginning, it is now easy to handle.

With every attack, the snowball of "Infinity" is getting bigger and bigger.

So much so that now Chen Weidong glanced at the twelve-digit number on the account, and there was no disturbance in his heart.

Unknowingly, on the road of fate, he has transformed from an immature boy to a big man who controls the fate of hundreds of thousands of people.

Now he walks around the company, and with just one look, he can silence the employees for a long time.

This is not what he wants, because he knows it very well.

The so-called majesty of the superior is actually not due to status!
