Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

Chapter 121: Chapter 107: The Boss Won't Fire You



Han Fei was practically spitting as he spoke.

He was still very proud, after all, weren't all these domestic internet companies just following the model of foreign ones?

As someone who had returned from abroad,

he believed he was absolutely leading the way in this area.

Whenever he spoke about his business insights in a crowd, there was no one who didn't admire him.

Not to mention his culturally inept cousin-in-law.

He believed that with just a little display of his knowledge, he could easily impress Chen Pingsheng.

"You speak very well," Chen Pingsheng nodded without a change in expression, he withheld his next words, not wanting to crush him so directly.

It was a way to spare him some dignity.

But Han Fei, completely oblivious, thought Chen agreed with him and continued, "Little brother, you think the same, right? I believe whether it's your fruit business or Fei Yangyang, they should jump on the internet+ as soon as possible. If you let me run your whole company, I believe that within three years…"

"It would completely collapse."

Since he lacked awareness, Chen Pingsheng could only bluntly interrupt him, "Following your suggestion, if I were to turn everything to internet plus, how much do you think I'd need to invest just to get it off the ground?"

"That would be at least a billion or so,"

Han Fei confidently said, "Little brother, since we are in business, we must look to the long term. It's true that today it might cost tens or a hundred billion, but the future return could be in the trillions. Brother, you have got to be able to do this math."

His head began to ache slightly.

Chen Pingsheng pinched his nose, curiously asking, "Fei, logically speaking, with your great talent, you shouldn't be jobless. So how come you suddenly found yourself out of work?"

There it was, the relentless irony from the big boss had finally arrived.

Lin Jia, standing to the side, wished she could just burrow into the ground.

After all, he had come back from abroad; how could he be this foolish?

To throw out investing tens or hundreds of billions so casually, was the bank his family's, or did he think every guy named Ma was his father?

Han Fei didn't realize that, apart from his mother Liu Xiu'ai, who was brimming with pride, everyone else was already on pins and needles.

Even Jiang Peiyao, who wasn't very insightful, couldn't help but twist her mouth unconsciously.

This conversation was so awkward.

Han Fei was still lost in his world, venting about his former company:

"My boss, although he managed to make the company into the top 500 in the world, he was still very short-sighted. There were problems everywhere in the company that I pointed out after racking my brains to write a ten-thousand-word treatise on the future strategic development of the company."

"After I posted it on the company intranet, he just couldn't appreciate my perfect strategic plan."

"If he had followed my strategic plan, it could be possible to surpass Apple and become number one in the world."

"Unfortunately, wise advice often grates on the ears. Since he couldn't listen, the company has no future or prospects from now on."

The top 500 in the world? Is that all?

Already in the top 500, but still wanting more. What's next, reach beyond Earth?

Seeing his intoxicated expression, Chen Pingsheng curiously asked, "Your former boss's company was already among the top 500 in the world, what future does it still need?"

Chen Pingsheng felt he might be misunderstanding something about this world.

Being in the top 500 seemed trivial to him.

Liu Xiu'ai, his aunt, inserted herself into the conversation, her son's excellence was a source of pride for her as a mother.

"Pingsheng, you see I wasn't wrong, was I? My son is naturally cut out to be a general manager. Those big companies' grassroots levels are just a waste of his talent. At your company, he could definitely help it grow stronger and achieve more brilliance."

Well, this was truly a case of like mother, like son.

Lin Jia was beside herself with silent critiques.

Han Fei wanted to say more, but she decisively pulled him back.

Give me a break.

If he kept bragging like that, next thing we'd know he'd surpass Tencent in a year and Alibaba in two.

By the third year, Huaxia wouldn't be able to contain him anymore.

"What are you doing?"

"Give it a rest."

Han Fei was displeased, as he hated being interrupted while speaking, "Why should I stop? You know, my cousin's husband used to sell durians on the streets, uneducated and just lucky with money, I'm just broadening his mind right now."

We're doomed.

Lin Jia's face turned red with anger. She simply stepped forward to disassociate herself, "I haven't known him long, and his words represent only his personal opinion."

"You don't agree with what he said?"

Chen Pingsheng asked curiously. Lin Jia simply replied, "Every successful company inevitably has its advantages and positioning. As hot as the internet might be, blindly following trends could backfire, ending up not only failing to grow but also wiping out its original strengths."

"You're quite insightful. Where do you work?"

Chen Pingsheng was quite surprised. He couldn't believe such a woman would fall for someone like Han Fei.

Must be the ridiculously high property prices.

These girls from outside Capital City, even if they could make ten or twenty thousand a month, without owning a house, they still felt insecure.

Lin Jia said, "I work in a private company, specifically in charge of market research, just know a little bit."

Pretty modest.

On the side, Han Fei complained discontentedly, "Brother, why are you even asking her? Women have long hair but short insights, she hasn't even studied abroad, what could she know?"

Chen Pingsheng ignored Han Fei and turned to Lin Jia, saying,

"You're not bad. I recently started Tenghui Capital Investment Co., Ltd, and there aren't many people yet. If you're interested, you could join as a market researcher, initially focusing on market research and data collection. If possible, within three years buying a property outright in Capital City wouldn't be a big problem."

Huh... ?

Han Fei was a bit dazed; his position as general manager hadn't been confirmed yet, and here was his girlfriend being recruited first.

Having graduated years ago, Lin Jia knew well that, without family support, let alone paying in full, she wouldn't even be able to afford the down payment.

That's why she hadn't turned down a man like Han Fei.

But now with a monthly salary of ten or twenty thousand, she naturally wasn't eager to switch companies.

Jiang Peiyao was the one who felt anxious for her, thinking her brother-in-law was an exceptionally good boss whom she shouldn't miss out on.

"Just agree already. The cosmetologists under him make at least two hundred thousand a year, and those two dorm mates of mine who are much younger than you are both earning over a million a year."

This sounded a bit exaggerated. If people without degrees could earn so much, someone with her market experience must do at least as well, right?

Moreover, everyone knew that the most opportunities came at the beginning stages of a company's growth; she really had to consider it carefully.

"Brother, if you want her in your company, isn't that easy?"

Han Fei said, "Just let me take care of your company, and I guarantee that within three years your company will..."

"Be running with its tail between its legs."

Chen Pingsheng stood up and patted his shoulder, "Fei, a talent like you shouldn't come to my company. You should go into real estate, or become a success coach."

"What do you mean?" Han Fei was confused, and Chen Pingsheng explained:

"It's simple. With your ability, you could surpass Apple in three years. If real estate firms hired you to manage loans, the banks would easily approve a couple trillion for you."

"As for being a success coach, it's just a bunch of people who haven't succeeded teaching others how to succeed. Having one more disaster like you in the industry wouldn't make much difference, right?"

Jiang Peiyao almost burst out laughing; she hadn't expected her brother-in-law to be so cutting with his sarcasm.

As for Han Fei, his face was red and his neck thick.

Even if he was foolish, he could still hear the naked sarcasm in those words.
