Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

 August in Pengcheng is the hottest and unbearable time of the year. The sun is blazing in the sky, and even if you go out for just a few steps, you will be sweating profusely.

However, the streets are still busy with traffic and overcrowded with people.

 In recent years, the domestic economy has maintained rapid development, and many cities have begun to rise, and Pengcheng is one of the best!

With China's accession to the WTO, the economy has begun to integrate with the world. Among them, southern coastal cities like Pengcheng and Yangcheng have benefited the most. Coupled with the tilt and support of relevant policies, Pengcheng has really changed with each passing day in recent years. The entire city They all show great vitality and are getting better every day!

Moreover, Pengcheng is now known as the “Silicon Valley” in China because there are many large Internet companies here.

Needless to say, Penguin was originally an Internet company "born and raised in Pengcheng." Wang Ye extended a helping hand when the company was in crisis in the early stage, invested a large amount of money, and also pointed out the direction for Penguin to monetize its traffic at a critical stage of its growth. , so Penguin in this life has developed more smoothly than Wang Ye’s previous life, and its scale has expanded faster!

 In 2010, Penguin had surpassed Alibaba and became the well-deserved Internet giant in the country!

· Its business involves Internet instant messaging, online games, film and television entertainment, etc. The company has also been listed in Hong Kong, with a market value of hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars.

In addition to Penguin, there is also a large Internet company in Pengcheng, which is "Facebook China".

 This company is a joint venture between Penguin and Facebook Technology Company. The products are more localized, and the data center and operation team are all made in China.

Since its birth, it has had strong financial support from Wang Ye, strong technical support from Facebook Technology Company, and huge traffic support from Penguin. In addition, the product is indeed very competitive and meets the desire of young people in the Internet era. Show your needs to more people on the Internet, so it became a hit as soon as it was launched!

Today, Facebook China has more than 300 million registered users, second only to QQ, an instant messaging software, and its monthly and daily active users are astonishing.

So just two Internet giants, Penguin Group and Facebook China, have propped up the Internet sky in Pengcheng and become a gathering place for Internet talents across the country.

Facebook China’s headquarters building is adjacent to Penguin Group. The two companies can be considered brother companies, and many departments need to interact frequently.

Like most Internet companies, the two buildings are still brightly lit every night. Many employees are working overtime, sometimes even until late at night or even early in the morning. There are also scattered offices with lights on.

But at that time no one protested about 996, and no one shouted to lie down.

 Because everyone has just come from the poor days, we are really afraid of poverty!

 The economy has just turned around in recent years, and people's material lives have become richer than ever before, so everyone is really devoted and passionate when they work!

 The most important thing is that the company gives so much money...

 …

 At around ten o'clock in the evening, Han Xiaodan got up and planned to leave the office.

She just graduated from graduate school this year, but she is already a "veteran" figure in Facebook China, and her current position is not low, she is the company's vice president of operations!

Compared to the technical elites such as masters and Ph.D.s from prestigious universities across the country who were recruited after the company expanded, Han Xiaodan did not have anything particularly outstanding, so that some colleagues had objections to her behind her back.

What kind of relationship do you think this Han Xiaodan has?

How can a student who just graduated from a second-rate Pengcheng University be in a high position in the company?

 Is it because she joined the company early?

But that doesn’t make sense. After all, Han Xiaodan was still working in the company as an intern before graduating from college a few years ago. However, he was quickly promoted to the company’s vice president just after graduating with a master’s degree. This is too outrageous!

To be honest, it’s hard not to be jealous, not only because Han Xiaodan’s position is high enough and his salary and benefits are high, but most importantly, the company is preparing to go public, and the original shares will be distributed according to the level and seniority of the management.

As the vice president of Han Xiaodan, wouldn't it be possible to get a lot of original shares and become a billionaire directly after the company is listed in the future?

Who wouldn’t envy this...

Han Xiaodan does not care about these criticisms. She is not a strong woman like Zhang Xiaoxi, and she is not that strong inside.

 But she had no choice, because even she herself felt that this was a bit outrageous...

Han Xiaodan still remembers that just two months ago, the day after she graduated with her master's degree, she was called over by the president's assistant when she came to work in the morning.

“Xiao Dan, the boss wants to talk to you, come with me.”

Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, the elegant and fair male assistant said to Han Xiaodan kindly. It is said that this assistant is a top student of Peking University. He has become the assistant to the president in his thirties this year. He has a bright future!

Furthermore, this assistant seemed to be interested in Han Xiaodan. Every time he met her in the company, he would always stop and talk to her for a few words. Sometimes he would also invite Han Xiaodan to go hiking and have dinner together on weekends.

However, Han Xiaodan basically refused because she was too busy with her studies. She would only participate in group activities of the company.

Han Xiaodan stood up and asked curiously: "Assistant Li, what does the boss want from me? How does he know that such an inconspicuous little guy like me exists?"

Also, Han Xiaodan has always worked in the company as an intern. She used to serve as an assistant to the previous general manager of Facebook China, but then the female general manager who was very kind to her and taught her a lot of things because of some problems at home. The reason left and a new male president came, and Han Xiaodan no longer wanted to continue to be the assistant to the president.

Of course, even if she is willing, the new president may not be willing to use an intern as an assistant...

So Han Xiaodan returned to the operations department, but the company was not small at that time, and she was only an intern, so even within the operations department, she was only a team leader, and the people she led were just A bunch of interns. Strictly speaking, she is not even as good as an ordinary employee in the company...

Of course, because he has been in the company long enough, Han Xiaodan is familiar with many department leaders. Everyone also knows that there is such a girl with short hair and a pretty face in the operations department. What makes everyone talk about it more is that this internship The one who gave birth to a girl turned out to be the most senior person in the entire company!

It is said that when the company was preparing to be established, this girl was still an intern at Penguin Company next door. For some reason, the boss of the preparatory team transferred her to participate in the preparations for the establishment of Facebook China, and she has stayed there until now...

Most of the original preparatory team returned to Penguin. Facebook China’s current important positions, including the president, were basically recruited from outside.

 …

Assistant Li pushed up his glasses and said with a smile: "I don't know. The boss just asked me to inform you to come over. I guess he knows that you have graduated from graduate school and are applying for full-time employment, so he wants to talk to you? But that's not right either. Ah, this kind of thing can be handled directly by the human resources department, and it’s not necessary for the boss to come forward in person. Hey, I can’t explain, anyway, you will know after you go there. "

That's right, Han Xiaodan is just an ordinary employee. If she becomes a regular employee, she won't be interviewed by her boss in person. She won't reach the level!

So, Han Xiaodan followed Assistant Li to the president's office in a daze. Mr. Liu, the current president of Facebook China, was personally recruited by Mr. Penguin Ma. It is said that he is a graduate of an Ivy League school. He has made a fortune in large foreign companies and has indeed made a lot of achievements.

 So when Facebook China developed to a certain scale, Mr. Ma contacted Mr. Liu through a headhunter and invited him to return to China to preside over the company.

Mr. Liu is also very discerning. At that time, Facebook Russia and Facebook America had already achieved great success. He had heard about it in the industry for a long time. Now he has the opportunity to take the helm of Facebook China, a company with such a bright future, and he can also get With the generous salary package, he had nothing to hesitate about, so he readily agreed and returned to China to serve as the president of Facebook China.

He is indeed not unworthy of his fame. In the more than two years since he came to Facebook, he has made Facebook a prosperous business, almost as good as Penguin!

Many financial institutions have even predicted that if Facebook China successfully lists on Nasdaq, its market value may even exceed that of Penguin!

 …

Assistant Li knocked on the door gently and heard Mr. Liu's voice asking to come in. Then he opened the door and walked in with Han Xiaodan.

He took two quick steps and came to Mr. Liu’s desk. He bent down and said, “Mr. Liu, Han Xiaodan is here.”

Han Xiaodan looked over curiously. This was her first time in this office!

Although she was one of the earliest employees of Facebook, the company was renting another office building at that time. This building was the office space that the company later jointly applied for with Penguin, and then built the headquarters building together. The company then moved Less than a year after coming here, how could she, an ordinary intern, have the chance to come to the president's office?

Mr. Liu, who was looking at the report at his desk, raised his head and looked at Han Xiaodan and said with a smile: "Han Xiaodan, please sit down on the sofa first. Wait for me for a few minutes. The work at hand will be finished soon. In addition, I have to wait for someone. , he will be here soon."

 bosses are always so busy, at least they have to look busy in front of their subordinates...

Han Xiaodan nodded slightly, walked to the sofa in the reception area on the other side and sat down. She did not feel as reserved as ordinary employees when meeting their boss.

Even though her current status is so different from that of the boss, Han Xiaodan feels that she is equal to him. She only gets paid for working in the company. Of course, she also likes her current job.

 A few minutes later, Assistant Li knocked on the office door again, but this time he did not come in first to report to Mr. Liu. Instead, he stood at the door with a nod and a bow, extending his hand to invite people in.

Mr. Liu also immediately put down the work at hand, stood up directly, and greeted us with a smile, "Mr. Ma, you haven't come to inspect our work for a while."

Han Xiaodan turned his head and looked over curiously, his eyes widening slightly. It turned out that Mr. Ma from the Penguin side was coming!

Although Facebook China has developed rapidly in recent years and its momentum is no less than that of Penguin, it is obvious that Mr. Liu is still not comparable to Mr. Ma.

Don’t forget, Penguin already holds a majority of the shares of Facebook, and it can be said to be the parent company of Facebook China!

Even Mr. Liu is Mr. Ma’s subordinate...

 Mr. Ma also walked in with a smile, shook hands with Mr. Liu, and exchanged greetings. Then he immediately looked at Han Xiaodan and asked with a smile: "Miss Han, I heard that you have successfully graduated with a master's degree. Congratulations."

Faced with the proactive greetings from the group boss, Han Xiaodan couldn't continue to sit there with an air of air. She stood up and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Ma."

She didn't know what else to say. As for why Lao Ma still remembered her, Han Xiaodan could roughly guess that it must be related to the brother Wang Ye who had a "blind date" with her. It seemed that brother Wang Ye He is also a shareholder of Penguin!

 The fact that he was able to work at Facebook was naturally arranged by Lao Ma for Wang Ye's sake.

However, thinking of Wang Ye, Han Xiaodan also felt a little resentful because he hadn't seen that person for a long time...

 When she first met Wang Ye, she was just a student at school. She was ignorant and didn't know anything.

I only know that Wang Ye seems to have a big business, engaged in energy trading, and he also has some shares in Penguin, but Han Xiaodan doesn't know how big Wang Ye's business is and how many shares he has in Penguin.

And this guy Wang Ye seems to have disappeared this year, with no news from him anymore!

The two of them had never met each other, and they hadn't seen each other for such a long time, so Han Xiaodan was already vague about what Wang Ye looked like, but he only had a rough impression in his mind.

In addition, as a young girl, she doesn’t pay attention to international politics at all, so Han Xiaodan didn’t even know about such a big thing as Wang Ye’s victory in last year’s election!

Of course, even if she accidentally saw the news, she might just be a little surprised that this foreigner is so young and looks like an East Asian...

 all all together

 …

 Seeing Mr. Ma take the initiative to greet Han Xiaodan, Mr. Liu and Assistant Li next to him were a little surprised.

In fact, even Mr. Liu didn’t know why Han Xiaodan came here today. He had just received a call from Mr. Ma, saying that he wanted to come and talk to an employee of the company named Han Xiaodan, but he didn’t say what he wanted to talk about.

As for Assistant Li, he didn’t know anything. He thought it was about Han Xiaodan’s permanent appointment and that Mr. Liu wanted to interview her.

It turned out that even Mr. Ma from the head office knew Han Xiaodan and took the initiative to say hello, which surprised Assistant Li.

You need to know what identity and status Mr. Ma has now. He is the richest man in the country!

How do you know that Han Xiaodan is such an ordinary girl...

I originally didn't want to write about the character Han Xiaodan, but when it came to the end, I felt that I still had to write about it. After all, this was the closest person to Wang Ye in his previous life. It would be irresponsible to finish the book without explaining it. So the name of this chapter is No Regrets. Strictly speaking, it is a side chapter outside the main plot.
