Rebirth of the Age of Wealth

Chapter 489 Wangfu

When Chen Jun heard what Li Weidong said, he quickly expressed his stance: "Thank you, Chairman, I will definitely work hard and live up to your high expectations!"

Chen Jun didn't know whether Li Weidong's words were pure encouragement or a statement, but he knew that so far, Li Weidong was quite satisfied with him.

Although he is a supervisor in the office and is said to be relatively close to Li Weidong, he rarely has contact with Li Weidong, let alone the opportunity to face Li Weidong directly like this.

Chen Jun attaches great importance to this opportunity, hoping to let his boss see his hard work and achievements, and finally become Li Weidong's secretary.

If you are more lucky, you can be like Zhang Dongshuo and be appreciated by your boss. Your career will be smooth, and promotion and salary increase will not be a problem.

The conversation between Li Weidong and Chen Jun also led other staff members from the east and west wings to come out to say hello to Li Weidong and show their faces.

Li Weidong greeted them cordially. They were all staff around him, so there was no need to be too blunt or put on airs.

After greetings, Li Weidong walked through the yard towards the main room.

The yard is not big, and in the middle there is a large blue and white ceramic fish tank that two people can hug. There are several fish that are not afraid of the cold swimming around in it. If some water lilies are placed in the summer, the scenery will be complete.

There are three wing rooms in the main house and two, and all five are connected to Li Weidong's office. When you enter the door, you can see the four big characters "with a clear conscience", and below the big characters is a huge aircraft carrier model.

Both of these things are of great significance to Li Weidong.

The east side of the aircraft carrier is the office area, and the west side is the reception room!

The desk is a huge mahogany table, with a computer on it and three red, white and gray telephones. Next to it are pen holders and other office supplies. Of course, there are also a few framed pictures of family members.

The three phones correspond to different internal and external lines. As long as he picks up some phones, the other party will ring. This is a dedicated line to his secretary. If he has any instructions, he can speak without dialing the number.

Behind the office chair, there is a row of bookshelves against the wall. The bookshelves are filled with various classics and practical books. Of course, many of them are used for decoration. Li Weidong does not have so much energy to read.

Moreover, reading is also a very tiring task. If you don't understand, the more you read, the more headache you will get. If you read it, you can't put it down, and you can't wait to finish it without sleeping.

To the south of the desk are two chairs, which are where the executives who report to Li Weidong sit. Further to the south is a small coffee table, surrounded by a circle of mahogany chairs, which can accommodate five or six people to sit and talk.

Further east, the original wing room was also opened up and transformed into a large balcony with several pots of flowers and plants, making the main room more spacious and brighter, and allowing Li Weidong to bask in the sun and enjoy the cool air when he had nothing to do.

To the west is a small conference area. If there are too many people and there is no room to sit at the desk, they will have to move to this area to discuss. However, with Li Weidong's hands-off shopkeeper's personality, there is a high probability that this area will not be used.

The west wing has been transformed into a small flower room, with many precious green plants placed inside, making the entire office environment quiet, with fresh air and a slight fragrance of flowers and plants, making it look like a place where the leaders of the capital work.

Li Weidong was very satisfied with this place. This was the mortgage room he longed for. It had both antique charm and modern conveniences, satisfying many of his dreams as a scholar-bureaucrat.

Li Weidong sat in his chair and leaned back. Chen Jun had already put the brewed tea on Li Weidong's desk.

Seeing Li Weidong sitting in his office chair leisurely, Chen Jun didn't know if he could start reporting work now.

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Jun took out a thick stack of documents from the document bag he brought in and put his hands respectfully on the desk.

"Chairman, these are the company's important documents and their summaries in recent days. Please review them!" Chen Jun said with a trembling voice.

The trembling voice is naturally due to nervousness, and of course it is also related to the gold content of these documents. If converted into cash, each page of this pile of documents would be worth tens of millions.

Li Weidong flipped through it a few times. Each document had a brief summary, trying to explain things as clearly as possible in as few words as possible.

Although most of these documents and matters are not reports for instructions and are basically for filing, Li Weidong also needs to know some. This is also one of the ways for him to understand the company's major events.

"The handwriting is good!" Li Weidong said without raising his head. Before Chen Jun could be happy, Li Weidong continued, "Nowadays, offices are modernized and it is convenient to use computers to print. There are not many people who can write well!

"

Just as Chen Jun was about to put on a happy face, he immediately became a little nervous. This was a compliment to them. Why did it feel like he was criticizing him for not adapting to modern office work? Was he being criticized for being inefficient and a waste of time?

Chen Jun felt like there was something on his forehead. When he touched it with his hand, it felt moist. Unexpectedly, he was sweating in the middle of winter.

"What's wrong? You're very hot. The heating in the room is too high?" Li Weidong didn't hear Chen Jun's words, so he looked up and asked in surprise.

"No, no!" Chen Jun said quickly, and then took out a pile of things, "These are the headlines of newspapers and media in the past two days!"

"Well, that's good, I'm interested!" Li Weidong said calmly and politely. These are the routine tasks that a secretary should do, and there is nothing new.

Secretarial work is just like this. It is trivial and meticulous, and it is difficult to excel. Especially on the first day of taking office, it is even more difficult to judge.

Being a secretary is a constant and meticulous job. It is a project that has gained popularity over time and requires a period of time. At that time, Zhang Dongshuo also went through a long period of investigation before becoming Li Weidong's secretary.

"This is all as it should be. Chairman, please be busy first. If you need anything, call me anytime!" Chen Jun said tentatively in a low voice.

"Go and do your work!" Li Weidong waved his hand and said, then immersed himself in the pile of newspaper abstracts and documents.

Although online media has begun to gain momentum, some things are still more impressive in paper form, allowing you to fully imagine what is behind the words.

Maybe it was because he had just celebrated the Spring Festival, but Li Weidong was quite motivated. He persisted in the work routine of clocking in every day for a week, which even Liu Jinhui admired. This was really rare. It seemed that there were many benefits to being close to the workplace.

Of course, a lot of things have happened in the past few days, both big and small, and many of them are closely related to Li Weidong's pocketbook.

For example, the three major portals Sina, Sohu, and NetEase finally successfully listed on Nasdaq after road shows and performed well.

Li Weidong didn't know the specific amount of financing they raised in the previous life, but he knew that it was definitely not as much as this life. With the dedicated help of Jiang Zhili and others, the three companies had raised their issuance prices to varying degrees. There was no way investors were too enthusiastic.

Of course, there are several minor episodes, but Li Weidong is not present, so naturally they are unknown.

The listing of these three companies also inflated Li Weidong's assets by one billion U.S. dollars, added several billionaires to China, and became the most successful example of Chinese companies listing in the United States. Major media outlets rushed to report on it.

However, Li Weidong knew clearly that although the current stock prices of these three companies were good, they would not even have a dollar a year later, and his inflated assets of one billion US dollars would only be left with a fraction.

Market value is simply a lie, so the completion of the transfer of Yahoo shares and the arrival of the funds made him truly happy.

However, on the day Yahoo announced the acquisition and started trading, Yahoo's stock price fell by 9%, and finally closed down by 5.36%, causing all the asset management companies involved in the acquisition to lose more than ten points that day.

The entire Nasdaq index was also dragged down, falling to a low of 3,649 points that day, with a maximum drop of 14%, and finally closed at 4,148 points, a drop of 1.7%.

As a result, Peking Capital suddenly became the target of attacks by major media and financial figures in the United States. They all believed that this kind of transaction sent a bearish signal and was the culprit of the collapse of the Nasdaq index.

As for reflecting on whether there is a bubble, that is impossible. The long lower shadow line after closing leaves "hope" for technical investors. Isn't this a typical sign of bulls defeating bears? A rebound will happen tomorrow.

Of course, experts from all walks of life who publish articles in the media and sing the bullish tone are probably beginning to sell bullish stock index futures, turn around and start building put options, and are quietly becoming big shorts.

Capital and finance do not care whether there is a technology stock bubble. They only care about making money in these subtle relationships. Making the most money is the only thing they care about most.

Among the good news, there was one piece of news that made Li Weidong feel all kinds of things.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was released in the United States for two weeks, and the box office exceeded the 50 million dollar mark. Not only did it break the box office record of Chinese-language films in North America, it even took the lead.

The breaking of this record has also led to a surge in domestic movie box office. There is no reason that the box office of our own movies should be lower than that of foreigners.

To this end, the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon crew held a grand celebration party in Beijing tonight, which was widely reported by domestic media. The Internet showed its powerful power, and three major portals carried out live broadcasts of pictures and texts on the Internet.

Although Li Weidong was not very comfortable watching this kind of live broadcast, the current network technology and speed could only do this. If the video was broadcast online, many computers and servers would probably be paralyzed.

In short, the success of this movie has benefited many people. Light and Shadow Entertainment, co-production companies, and a number of distribution companies have received box office profits and real money.

In addition, the benefits brought by fame have benefited the entire crew a lot, especially the leading actors. It has also established their status in the entertainment industry. In short, everyone is happy.

Of course, they may have also expected that 50 million US dollars is definitely not the end of the movie. There is nothing wrong with breaking records. What is really great is that the records created are not broken.

Maybe they will be completely shocked when they know that the final box office will exceed 100 million US dollars, which will become an extremely high ceiling.

However, reports of the celebration party have left many experts a little confused. Ziyi is obviously the second female lead, but she has been exposed and talked about as the first female lead.

No matter what the reason is, everyone knows that if nothing unexpected happens, this young actress with acting skills and resources will become popular.

"You're so good-looking. It's good to be young!" At some point, Liu Jinhui, who had finished washing, walked up to Li Weidong in her pajamas and praised the photos on the computer screen.

Liu Jinhui's words made Li Weidong, who was deep in thought, tremble and almost drop the notebook in his hand, but he quickly pretended to be calm and hid his expression just now.

"That's right, you don't even look at who picked it. The main and supporting roles in this movie were all chosen by your husband. How can that be any worse?" Li Weidong said pretending to be relaxed, and of course he answered that the donkey lips were wrong.

Horse's mouth.

"Yes, yes, you are so awesome. As long as it is something in this world, there is nothing you can't do without you. No one in the world can match it, but you are the number one!" Liu Jinhui rolled her eyes and said with a strange look.

.

"That's not true. There are things I can't do, and there are things I'm not as good as you at. For example, I can't give birth to a child. I'm not as good as you at being a husband!" Li Weidong closed his notebook, patted Liu Jinhui's shoulder and said sincerely.

Liu Jinhui heard Li Weidong's crooked words, smiled softly, and lightly slapped Li Weidong's hand, "Stop talking nonsense, what a prosperous man, how unpleasant it sounds!"

"Why is it so unpleasant to hear? From princes and generals to traffickers and footmen, who would marry a daughter-in-law who doesn't want to marry a prosperous husband? Look, if I marry you, our family will be prosperous. I accidentally became a

The richest man!" Li Weidong complimented.

Liu Jinhui picked up her notebook, got on the bed, sat down next to Li Weidong, and said with a smile, "You must be so sweet. When did you become so good at talking?"

"How about you try it? Not only is it covered with honey, but it's also slippery?" Li Weidong pursed his lips and said with a smile.

Liu Jinhui rolled her eyes and ignored Li Weidong. She opened her laptop and looked at the news that Li Weidong had just read. At this time, a group photo was updated, and the entire live broadcast was over.

"Is this movie really that good and has such a high box office?" Liu Jinhui asked as she put her notebook on the bedside table.

"Actually, it's not that great. It's pretty good, but the plot of the movie is more in line with foreigners' aesthetics!" Li Weidong said matter-of-factly.

Looking at Liu Jinhui's face, she seemed to want to see it, so she asked: "Why do you want to see it? How about we go to the cinema to see it? There is probably a midnight show!"

"Why don't we go to a movie theater?" Liu Jinhui shook her head and said, what time is it? It's not like young people are meeting friends. The later the better, they have two children now!

"By the way, I remember that I was given an unreviewed sample. It may be different from what was released, but it is more complete. You turn on the DVD player and I will look for it!" Li Weidong said and got out of bed to get the movie sample.

Liu Jinhui also seemed to be thinking about the movie. She got out of bed and turned on the TV and DVD player in the bedroom.

After a while, Li Weidong brought a CD from the study, put it into the DVD player, pushed it in, and the DVD player made a buzzing sound and started reading the disc.

The couple did not have the chance to go to the cinema to watch this movie, so they are now watching this uncensored movie while lying in bed.
