NOVEL WEB Chapter 32 - That’s Right, Exactly!
Chapter 32 That’s Right, Exactly!
In Teacher Ma’s heart, he couldn’t help but feel deep admiration for Li Mo.
Outsiders…
Had no idea about Li Mo’s true capabilities.
But…
His girlfriend must have known something.
Li Mo must have preferred to flex his prowess in the stock market behind the scenes.
This cast a veil of mystery over Li Mo in the eyes of everyone.
Mr. Mo…
Was truly an unfathomable man.
“No, it’s just that the child doesn’t know any better and was talking nonsense.”
“Last time, I made a little money in the stock market.”
“It was just luck, that’s all.”
When Li Mo said this…
Teacher Ma and the other two could only assume he was being modest.
Yes, yes…
This was modesty…
Definitely modesty…
Making money just by luck?
That was even more unbelievable than winning the lottery.
“Yanyan, let me introduce you.”
“This is Teacher Ma. Have you heard of Ali?”
Su Qingyan nodded.
“Mm… When I went out for drinks with my sister before, they discussed some internet investment matters. I’ve heard of Teacher Ma.”
Su Qingyan looked at Li Mo.
She realized…
That among these rising internet moguls, Li Mo stood out as exceptionally young.
“Yanyan, this is Mr. Cai Chongxin, a top graduate from Yale University—a true elite in society. Not long ago, he secured a five-million-dollar investment for Mr. Ma.”
Without making it obvious, Li Mo flattered Cai Chongxin again.
This greatly boosted Cai Chongxin’s favor toward him.
This Mr. Mo…
Was truly down-to-earth.
“Teacher Ma…”
“Mr. Cai.”
“This is Su Qingyan, my girlfriend.”
“She’s currently a sophomore at Shenzhen University.”
“In the future, she’ll serve as my secretary.”
Cai Chongxin sighed. “Mr. Mo’s girlfriend is so young. My daughter is almost her age.”
“It’s a bit embarrassing to say, but Teacher Ma and I are already middle-aged, yet our achievements don’t even come close to half of Mr. Mo’s.”
“Right now, Teacher Ma and I are only taking home a monthly salary of five hundred yuan.”
When Teacher Ma heard the mention of the five-hundred-yuan salary,
He felt incredibly proud.
It was his charisma…
And his vision for the future that had convinced Cai Chongxin to willingly accept such a meager salary.
“Five hundred yuan? Teacher Ma, your salaries are that low?”
“My brother usually pays his employees at least ten thousand.”
Su Qingyan couldn’t help but ask curiously.
Both were internet companies.
But Li Mo’s salaries…
Were clearly much higher than Teacher Ma’s.
Teacher Ma grew even more convinced of Li Mo’s unfathomable depth.
“I never expected…”
“That Tencent’s employees earn an average of ten thousand? Last I checked, Tencent already has hundreds of employees—that’s millions in expenses every month!”
Teacher Ma suddenly felt his own poverty keenly.
Before…
When Cai Chongxin helped him secure the five-million-dollar investment,
He had thought he was rich.
But now…
Tencent was paying out millions in salaries every month?
With so many people…
Was that even necessary?
“It’s not as exaggerated as Teacher Ma thinks. Yanyan was only talking about the salaries of the computer science talents.”
“In reality…”
“Most employees only earn about a thousand more than the market average.”
“The total monthly payroll doesn’t exceed two million.”
Teacher Ma and Cai Chongxin could only smile bitterly.
Listen to that…
Was this even human speech?
But then again…
Li Mo wasn’t exactly normal.
Meanwhile…
Ma Tengyun had been holding back.
He really wanted to flaunt his annual salary.
But when he had mentioned it to Teacher Ma over the phone before,
The latter hadn’t believed him…
Now that they had witnessed Mr. Mo’s true strength,
How could they still doubt him?
Finally…
Ma Tengyun couldn’t hold back anymore.
Of course, to maintain Li Mo’s principle of understatement,
He didn’t outright mention his salary.
“Yes, our company’s annual salaries are indeed quite high.”
“All thanks to Mr. Mo.”
“But Mr. Cai, I truly didn’t expect the rumors about your five-hundred-yuan salary to be real!”
Cai Chongxin’s face was full of envy.
“Well, it’s not entirely five hundred. After securing the investment,”
“Teacher Ma raised the salaries for the employees.”
“We also hired some top talent at competitive rates.”
“Of course…”
“Some of us in management still earn five hundred a month.”
“We’re betting on a bright future.”
“Not just a paycheck.”
“If it were about the salary… Teacher Ma wouldn’t have given up his stable teaching career.”
“To start a business in the private sector.”
“By the way…”
“Tengyun, I heard your monthly salary is a hundred thousand. Is that true?”
Before, he had been a bit skeptical.
He thought Ma Tengyun might have been exaggerating because he lacked investors.
Now that he had secured funding,
He was just boasting…
An annual salary of a million…
In this era, for a company that had just received investment,
Was simply outrageous.
If word got out…
It would shake the entire industry!
But after witnessing Li Mo’s mysterious aura and deep pockets,
He no longer thought Ma Tengyun was lying.
Ma Tengyun’s heart swelled with silent glee!
He had waited so long,
But they hadn’t brought up salaries.
Finally…
Cai Chongxin hit the nail on the head!
At tonight’s dinner…
He would definitely drink a few extra glasses with Cai Chongxin!
If Cai Chongxin hadn’t mentioned it today,
He might have been frustrated for years!
This feeling of having the perfect opportunity handed to him…
Was just…
Amazing!
“It’s not worth mentioning.”
“Mr. Mo giving me a million-yuan annual salary is his recognition of me. I’ll devote my entire life to him, even if it costs me everything.”
“Even if he hadn’t given me that ten percent equity,”
“I would still have worked for him for the rest of my life.”
Teacher Ma’s face was stunned.
“You have a million-yuan salary AND ten percent equity?!”
Cai Chongxin was also in disbelief.
They had assumed Ma Tengyun’s hundred-thousand-yuan monthly salary
Meant he had no equity…
After all…
Tencent was fully funded by Li Mo.
But now…
He claimed he had both a million-yuan salary AND shares?!
Even Cai Chongxin felt envious of Ma Tengyun.
“It’s all thanks to Mr. Mo’s generosity.”
Ma Tengyun maintained a calm and composed demeanor.
But inside…
He was bursting with euphoria!
