From Inheriting a Small Factory to Becoming a Global Financial Tycoon

Chapter 41 A Collective Increase in Loyalty

Faced with the current urgent situation, Lin Haoran stayed in Central even through the weekend, without even considering returning to the comfort of the Lin family villa.

This office seemed custom-built for him—a seamless blend of work and living space.

The front section was spacious and bright, serving as an efficient workspace, fully equipped with desks, bookcases, and all necessary office equipment, laid out rationally to ensure smooth and comfortable operations.

The cleverly designed back section was a warm and private resting area, featuring a carefully arranged bedroom occupying just over ten square meters, cozy and elegant.

Inside the bedroom, a Simmons mattress that Lin Haoran had recently selected himself offered supreme comfort.

Adjacent to the bed was a compact but fully functional bathroom, meeting all daily needs.

Most enchanting of all, drawing back the curtains revealed a magnificent view of Victoria Harbour—stunning scenery that seemed to silently cheer on this diligent young entrepreneur.

A wall separated the office and living areas, ensuring both focused work and easy transition to relaxation whenever needed.

Lin Haoran had also thoughtfully arranged accommodations for Li Weiguo and Li Weidong.

The unused department office next door was outfitted with a bunk bed, providing them with a place to stay whenever Lin Haoran lived at the company.

Throughout the weekend, while keeping a close watch on Hong Kong's current events, Lin Haoran also personally attended to the company's operational details.

He carefully selected and recruited a new receptionist through the human resources market.

Her name was Zhao Lin, a 23-year-old graduate of the Chinese University of Hong Kong's Human Resources program.

Although Zhao Lin was not a peerless beauty, her gentle, pleasant demeanor and dignified, graceful manners made her an ideal choice to serve as the company's welcoming face.

Lin Haoran was very pleased with her performance and had formally signed her to a work contract, arranging for her to officially start the following Monday.

As the weekend slipped quietly away, another workday full of challenges and opportunities arrived.

Today was October 9th, Monday.

After finishing breakfast with his two bodyguards, Lin Haoran stepped into the office around 8:50 AM.

At that time, every corner of the company was buzzing with vitality; all employees, both old and new, were already at their posts.

Today, Global Investment looked dramatically different from before—bustling with energy.

Just a week earlier, the office had seemed empty and quiet, with only Lin Haoran, his two bodyguards, Su Zhixue, and Dai Shi present.

But today, with new members joining, the atmosphere had completely changed.

At the front desk, Zhao Lin's warm presence added a splash of color,

and the trading team welcomed three new members: Han Zixing, Shi Zhensheng, and Qi Fen—injecting fresh vitality into the company's operations.

"Good morning, President Lin!"

"Good morning, President Lin!"

…

As Lin Haoran walked in, greetings echoed throughout the office.

Everyone sincerely welcomed him.

"Good morning, everyone!" Lin Haoran smiled warmly, returning the greetings.

Then he cleared his throat and said,

"Since everyone's here, I'll briefly go over a few things.

First, let me introduce our new colleague: Zhao Lin. She'll handle reception, administrative tasks, and procurement.

Given the current light workload at the front desk, she'll also handle daily office maintenance for now.

Zhao Lin, we discussed this during your interview. Are you okay with that?"

Zhao Lin nodded confidently with a smile, replying, "No problem, I'll do my best to handle every task well."

"Good. You can settle in at the front desk for now. I'll notify you about future arrangements," Lin Haoran nodded approvingly.

Then he turned toward the traders,

"Additionally, our trading team has expanded with three experienced new members.

Since the stock market opens in half an hour, let's hold a brief meeting now to introduce the work and lay out our next steps."

Leading the way to the meeting room, Lin Haoran brought everyone together.

The meeting room was actually a converted finance room—small, but easily accommodating six people.

Since the company's trading operations were still simple and transparent, Lin Haoran personally managed the finances, ensuring every transaction remained clear and accurate.

Of course, as the company grew, he planned to establish a dedicated finance position in the future to further regulate and refine the company's financial management system.

Including Lin Haoran himself, the trading team now had six members.

"Zhixue, why don't you start by introducing our previous work to everyone?" Lin Haoran said gently, sitting at the head of the meeting table.

"Yes, President Lin," Su Zhixue replied, standing up and methodically presenting a detailed overview.

Until now, for confidentiality reasons, the exact nature of the company's operations had been kept from the three new hires.

Now that they were formally part of the team, it was time to share this crucial information.

Su Zhixue carefully recapped every key step and milestone, ensuring that the new team members gained a comprehensive understanding of the company's background and current operations.

By the end of his explanation, Han Zixing, Shi Zhensheng, and Qi Fen's eyes shone with excitement.

Any initial doubts they had during their first cramped office interview had now completely vanished.

The bright, spacious new office, the prime location, and the scope of operations had greatly boosted their confidence and sense of belonging.

Furthermore, hearing about transaction volumes involving tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars made them realize they were standing at the gates of a truly extraordinary opportunity.

At that moment, Lin Haoran noticed their loyalty levels had also risen significantly:

Han Zixing: [Loyalty: 72/100]

Shi Zhensheng: [Loyalty: 70/100]

Qi Fen: [Loyalty: 71/100]
