Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 35 - 0: I hope you can keep your composure after a while.
"Zhang Jun, I heard within our circle that Lin Yue’s husband has been dabbling in funds recently."
It took Zhang Jun a whole day to finally uncover information about Gu Feng.
She couldn’t immediately deal with Lin Yue; after all, the heritage of the Lin Family was there, and Lin Langsheng was still around—he couldn’t swallow his opponent in one bite.
But that didn’t affect his plans to teach this soldier-turned-businessman Gu Feng a lesson on how to behave in society!
Friend: "He took over a fund company, renaming it ’Tianfeng Fund’ Company. Although he’s not the legal representative, the real person in charge of operating the fund is Lin Yue’s husband."
"That’s enough," Zhang Jun said with a slight smile. "Is this company currently planning to raise funds?"
Friend: "Coincidentally, their employees are raising funds right now, probably getting ready to start trading. What’s outrageous, you know what?"
Zhang Jun: "What?"
The friend couldn’t help but chuckle: "Their employees are actually offering clients a guaranteed return of 40% in just one month!"
Zhang Jun’s eyes widened: "Are you sure? Does this Gu Feng even know how to play with funds? Such a high return rate, didn’t he research the market conditions beforehand? And in a bear market at that, all within a short span of one month?"
"Exactly," the friend laughed: "The highest return in the circle for the whole year isn’t even 20%, yet he’s offering 40% to his clients in one month!"
"Very good," Zhang Jun’s smile turned devilishly triumphant: "Hurry up and add fuel to the fire, let those local rich ladies in Jiangcheng go buy his products. When it blows up, we’ll step in. Gu Feng will definitely have to let the legal representative face the music, and we’ll pull him out for public scrutiny."
Understanding Zhang Jun’s intent, the friend replied: "You’re so bad."
——
Tianfeng Fund Company.
Li Ming had recently recruited 20 new employees, each to be initially mentored by the experienced staff.
The new employees didn’t have any share in the benefits that the current batch of experienced staff enjoyed.
This was about enduring and proving loyalty.
But compared to other large fund companies in the industry, Tianfeng’s compensation and benefits were also quite considerable.
A monthly starting salary of 15,000 was not less than what top-tier fund companies in first-tier cities offered.
With such conditions, it only took Li Ming two days to select experienced elite employees from within the industry.
"Manager Li, I’ve brought in a client, money is no issue."
"Me too, I’ve also attracted a client willing to buy our products."
"Manager, the 10% share that Director Gu has given us, we could actually cover it completely with our own and the clients’ money."
Li Ming nodded.
The goal was to raise 500 million, with the 10% share for the staff amounting to about fifty million.
Together the eleven experienced staff could gather about twenty million at most.
Normally, if this amount was insufficient, the company would let others in need take it.
But in just half a day’s time, perhaps due to the effect of Li Ming’s advertising in the market, there was a continuous stream of customers wanting to buy the company’s products.
In just half a day, the remaining thirty million was also raised.
"I will apply with Director Gu for the 10% share. You all rejuvenate yourselves in the next two days and prepare for a big move," Li Ming announced.
The experienced employees grinned excitedly: "Yes!"
The new employees didn’t know about the company’s strength, but seeing the experienced staff daring to offer a 40% return rate to the clients, they thought these people were crazy.
Was the boss of this company planning to raise funds and abscond?
Clearly, these new recruits were seasoned veterans in the industry, well aware that promising such a return rate was courting death!
If it blew up, they could expect to be skinned by those clients.
"Old Mo, how much did you manage to gather this time?"
At noon, both the new and experienced staff were at their desks, eating delivered takeout while chatting.
Old Mo smiled: "I put in 1.3 million myself, did my best, but I also raised 1 million from clients!"
Someone immediately chuckled: "Our small company finds it hard to attract clients. Tell us honestly, how much return did you promise them?"
Old Mo, pained, admitted: "50%!"
"Damn!" Someone blurted out in shock.
The new employees were also internally churning, thinking the experienced staff were astounded by Old Mo’s madness, only for one of them to exclaim: "Man, I had to promise 65% before they agreed to invest, damn it!"
Crazy!
"Fellow team leads, heed my advice," one of the new employees, likely a veteran in the industry, suggested: "We should just work honestly, earn our salaries, and wait for the bonus. Don’t go gambling ourselves; be careful not to get completely sucked in."
"You’re right," Old Mo said with a laugh as he put a drumstick from his box into the new employee’s plate: "Hope you can still keep your cool after some time."
The seasoned employees immediately understood and all broke into laughter.
