Chapter 130: Everyone Arrives

Chen Wei got home late.

While talking to Lian Yingying about the New Year, Chen Wei remembered that the old house at home might need some renovations.

Previously, he had been thinking about buying a house in Yunzhuo for his parents to live in, but they definitely needed to return to their hometown for the New Year.

The old house back home was built when he was in elementary school, fifteen or sixteen years ago. Although it wasn't falling apart, it certainly couldn't compare to the newer, more impressive houses in the village.

A proper renovation would allow his parents to hold their heads high in the village.

However, how to renovate and decorate this house was a problem that needed careful consideration.

It wasn't that he couldn't just give the money to his father, but Chen Wei knew his dad too well—he wouldn't be willing to spend much on a good renovation. His dad might just buy some cement and lime, paint the walls, and call it done.

That wouldn't do at all!

It looked like he would need to find some time to go back home and personally hire a construction team to do a proper renovation of the old house.

Speaking of construction teams, Lian Yingying's family was in that business!

When the time came, he could ask Lian Yingying to get a construction team over, maybe even introduce an architect!

Thinking of this, Chen Wei couldn't help but start imagining what style to choose for the old house...

There was no need to discuss this with his dad beforehand. Talking about it wouldn't yield any results; his dad would certainly complain about wasting money. He'd just have a designer draft a plan and then bring a construction team over.

The next day, early in the morning, Chen Wei arrived at Blue Ocean Tianrun.

It wasn't even eight o'clock, and Zheng Junpeng had already arrived early.

After Chen Wei arrived, the two discussed the issue of the account.

The account on the Sweeney side was already sorted out and would be officially opened on the first of the next month.

While they were talking, Wang Qian arrived.

Although it was her first day and not an official workday, Wang Qian was dressed quite formally.

Chen Wei smiled and said, "You don't need to dress so formally for work in the future. Just be casual. Our company is focused on trading, not on business dealings."

Wang Qian nodded.

Then, Chen Wei briefly explained the tasks Wang Qian would be responsible for, such as bookkeeping, tax reporting, payroll, administrative tasks, and human resources. In short, anything not related to trading would be her responsibility.

After explaining, Chen Wei felt a bit apologetic. Although the workload wasn't heavy initially, it was quite diverse.

However, Wang Qian didn't mind and earnestly took notes on what she needed to do.

Wang Qian then asked some questions related to trading.

As a company employee, even if she wasn't doing trading herself, she needed to understand the basics of the business. For example, when recruiting, if an applicant asked about the company's business and she didn't know, it would reflect poorly on the company.

In this regard, Wang Qian was more considerate than Chen Wei and Zheng Junpeng.

Once she had a good understanding, Chen Wei had Zheng Junpeng contact Billy, and he himself also chatted with Billy to confirm that the account could be opened. He transferred one million yuan as a deposit.

The remaining one million would be transferred on the first of next month when the account officially opened without issues.

Gradually, everyone else arrived.

All the traders who planned to join were present.

Including Wang Qian, there were nineteen people in total, forming the entirety of Tianrun Investment.

The ones who were here for the first time were thrilled by the office environment and the four-screen computers, eagerly claiming their spots.

Although Chen Wei had his own office, he would temporarily trade in the trading room.

With less than twenty people, all of whom were acquaintances, it wouldn't make sense for him to act like a boss and isolate himself in his office like Wang Wentao.

Once everyone settled in their spots, they began setting up their computers, downloading software, and getting busy.

Around nine o'clock, Li Chunhui, Du Shan, and a young man arrived.

Chen Wei left everyone in the trading room and took Zheng Junpeng and Zhou Yi with him to meet Li Chunhui and the others in his office.

"President Chen, this place is indeed high-end and impressive!" Li Chunhui exclaimed as he admired the sea view from the floor-to-ceiling window.

This area was the core business district of Yunzhuo, with over half of the city's high-end office buildings and major companies concentrated here.

That Chen Wei could open a company here and occupy an entire floor was impressive.

Moreover, Tianrun Investment and Blue Ocean Tianrun naturally made Li Chunhui think of Jindasheng.

A big client!

Du Shan had the same thought.

Having worked in business for so many years, she had finally landed a major client!

"Of course, what else did you expect from us!" Zhou Yi said proudly.

Zhou Yi had made over a million this month, with a commission of over 460,000 yuan.

Over 460,000 yuan! Earning so much money had boosted his confidence, and he walked with his eyes to the sky.

Especially in Blue Ocean Tianrun, where the atmosphere was upscale and impressive.

Chen Wei and Zheng Junpeng just smiled faintly and said nothing.

The young man started working on Chen Wei's computer, while Li Chunhui and Zhou Yi stood by the window, chatting away.

As a business-savvy branch manager, Li Chunhui had a way with words, hitting all the right notes and making Zhou Yi feel over the moon, as if they had known each other forever.

Chen Wei and Zheng Junpeng stood behind the young man, quietly watching, while Du Shan stood beside Chen Wei, occasionally nudging him.

"It's ready, President Chen. Let me explain..."

The young man finished setting up the software and began explaining how to operate the master-sub-account system. Chen Wei took a notebook, listening and taking notes while Zheng Junpeng listened attentively.

They occasionally asked the young man some questions.

After more than half an hour of explanations, Chen Wei had a good grasp of it.

The master-sub-account system wasn't too complicated. It involved distributing funds into sub-accounts, with each sub-account trading independently and the master account managing them all, complemented by a risk control software—similar to the U.S. stock market.

Once everything was set, Li Chunhui and the others took their leave.

"Boss, how is the domestic market compared to the U.S. stock market? Which one is more profitable?" Zhou Yi asked.

"For now, the U.S. stock market is more mature and profitable. However, our company will definitely shift towards the domestic market in the future. Once the capital increases, we'll earn more than in the U.S. market," Chen Wei explained.
