Back in his room, Chen Dong gave a wry smile. This scene had happened many times during this period. If it weren't for the fact that the development of the MP3 player was nearing completion, he would never want to listen to his mother's nagging.
To be honest, he had considered marrying one of them—Vivian Chow, Annie, and Julia—each a goddess-like figure. This is precisely why Chen Dong chose to avoid the issue of marriage; ultimately, choosing either one would only hurt the other two.
Living together without being married might sound like a scumbag situation, but it's currently the best option. If things really get out of hand, one could learn from those bigwigs in Hong Kong and hold a wedding ceremony without registering it at the civil affairs bureau. Legally, this is perfectly acceptable and won't break the law.
The next day.
After arranging the work here, Chen Dong started packing his luggage. Wolong's car was already waiting downstairs.
Xiao Xinyi stared at Chen Dong with complicated emotions for a long time before finally speaking, "Do you think Mom is too nagging?"
"No, Mom, I've been here for a long time, and there's a lot of work piling up in Hong Kong waiting for me to go back and handle," Chen Dong quickly shook his head.
Although Xiao Xinyi was partly to blame, overall, he did need to rush back to Hong Kong to handle some business.
In particular, regarding the e-commerce platform discussed in the previous meeting with Lin Zhiyuan and the others, Chen Dong will begin working on it upon returning. Furthermore, besides the e-commerce platform, Chen Dong also thought of another globally popular software, "ICQ." ICQ became synonymous with trendiness as soon as it appeared online, attracting over 1 million users in just six months.
It's important to understand that in 1994, how many households worldwide owned computers? Meanwhile, ICQ had 1 million users, which almost represented half of all computer users.
Then, QQ, which became popular in China, was, to put it bluntly, a copy of ICQ's concept—a core knock-off product. Chen Dong now wants to grasp these two powerful tools: one is the traffic key, which, in the future, will allow him to seize business opportunities in this booming market by possessing a massive user base.
On the contrary, e-commerce platforms are more like monetization tools than traffic-generating tools, capable of converting a large user base into the main force of consumption.
Watching the car drive further and further away.
Xiao Xinyi sighed, "Our son is nothing like either of us."
"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings." Chen Xuelin held Xiao Xinyi's hand tightly and said, "What we need to consider now is how to get our health back so that we can live to see their achievements."
Inside the car.
Wolong handed a bottle of water to Chen Dong and said with concern, "Boss, why don't you take a nap in the car? I've noticed you've been working day and night lately, and you don't seem to be in good spirits."
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong rubbed his temples and said with a wry smile, "It's not that I'm really tired, it's just that I have to listen to my mom nagging me every day. She's driving me crazy."
"Every family has its own troubles." Wolong smiled upon hearing this and deliberately slowed down the car so that Chen Dong could get a better rest.
"By the way, where are Ma Guoliang and the others?"
"Manager Ma, Wangcai and other senior executives have already informed them that you are returning to Hong Kong today, and they are already waiting for you at the offshore company," Wolong replied.
Chen Dong nodded upon hearing this and said, "That's good. I'll take a nap first. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay, boss."
Three hours later.
Wangcai smoothly parked the car in the offshore company's underground parking garage, then gently nudged Chen Dong's arm and said, "Boss, we've arrived."
"Hmm." Chen Dong opened his eyes and sat up straight. "You can find a place to rest for a while. You don't need to come up with me."
"It's alright, boss, I'm not tired at all." Wolong said firmly. For him, it was just driving and protecting Chen Dong. He really didn't feel tired. Compared to the days and nights he spent on missions outside, this little bit of fatigue was nothing.
Chen Dong nodded, and could only go along with it.
office.
Wangcai and his friends were still the same as before, unchanged. Upon seeing Chen Dong, they immediately gave him a hug, saying, "Boss, it's so good to see you! I've missed you so much!"
"boss."
"Hello, boss."
When everyone saw Chen Dong, they all greeted him with smiles.
Looking at these familiar faces, Chen Dong smiled knowingly: "It's been a while since we last met, and everyone looks full of energy. That's great."
“Boss.” Annie’s eyes were red, and she looked pitiful.
Chen Dong stared at Annie's face for a moment, knowing exactly what she was thinking. He gave her a knowing look, then turned his head and said.
"Lu Dachui, arrange a nice restaurant, and I'll cover all the expenses."
"Thank you, boss."
"Thank you for your generosity, boss!"
Cheers erupted instantly from the surrounding area.
Chen Dong nodded to several senior executives, then walked towards the conference room. Wangcai walked at the back, deliberately staying behind to give Lu Dachui a few instructions: "Dachui, how many people go, how many people bring back, understand?"
"Okay, Brother Wang."
"Okay, you go ahead and make the arrangements. I'm going to a meeting now."
When Wangcai entered the office, everyone was already there.
"Alright, let's have a meeting." Seeing that everyone had arrived, Chen Dong said succinctly, "The devaluation of the Thai baht is just the beginning. I predict that international capital will launch a new round of currency shocks against several other countries and regions in Southeast Asia. Wangcai will be in charge of this."
