Chapter 758 An Old Friend Returns! Become Emperor for a Thousand Dollars? Rice Breeding!
The next morning, in the No. 2 office building of Senlian Science and Technology Park, Pinbei's administration department set up a small award stage in the rest area.
The LED screen hanging on the wall clearly displays the words "Pinbei Employees' Third Anniversary". Although it is a bit simple, the prizes on the table are particularly eye-catching.
The 127 commemorative gold coins, each weighing 30 grams, gleam with a captivating golden light.
On the left side of the awards stage, Song Yuncheng stood in the front row as Pinbei's first employee.
Behind her followed Zhang Wenbo, Xiang Pengfei, Chen Xu, Hu Li, Yuan Wei, Li Hui, and others, all of whom were among the first batch of employees when Pinbei was founded.
Chen Yansen glanced at his watch, then waved to Song Yuncheng.
Upon seeing this, his marketing colleagues in the audience immediately raised their cameras and pointed the viewfinder at him.
Song Yuncheng wore a dark gray suit today, with her long hair down, a white wool sweater underneath, and a dazzling silver necklace around her neck.
The necklace pendant features the Arabic numeral "116," surrounded by sparkling diamonds.
Seeing Chen Yansen beckoning, she quickly walked over.
"Song Yuncheng, Pinbei's first employee, thank you for your contributions to the company."
With a smile on his face, Chen Yansen solemnly delivered his award speech, while taking out a gold coin and handing it to Song Yuncheng.
"Thank you, Brother Sen!"
Song Yuncheng wanted to laugh, but she forced herself to hold it in.
She and Chen Yansen were so close that they slept in the same bed every few days. Seeing his serious expression now, she felt both amused and awkward.
Then, the two stood side by side and smiled brightly at the camera.
"Click!"
The marketing department colleagues captured this moment with their cameras and plan to display the photo on the company's culture wall.
After Song Yuncheng stepped off the stage, Zhang Wenbo quickly walked up to the stage, leaned forward slightly, and respectfully called out "Brother Sen".
"Wenbo, Pinbei's second employee and the first backend engineer in the technology department, thank you for your hard work these past few years, keep up the good work!"
Chen Yansen patted Zhang Wenbo on the shoulder and said in a gentle tone.
"Thank you, Brother Sen! I will definitely work hard!"
Zhang Wenbo took the gold coin, grinned, and responded loudly.
How much money can an ordinary person make if they catch a trend of the times?
Just look at Zhang Wenbo and you'll know!
He was a long-time employee of FoxTao. When Chen Yansen sold FoxTao to Ali, he received more than 700,000 yuan in stock option compensation.
After joining Pinbei, he received 540,000 stock options, which, based on Pinbei's price of $117 per share, were worth as much as $63 million.
You couldn't spend it all in ten lifetimes!
For Zhang Wenbo, this 30-gram gold coin is more of a commemorative item.
I witnessed his entire journey from an ordinary college student to a billionaire.
Xiang Pengfei
"Yuan Wei."
"Li Hui."
Meng Xibo
Next, Chen Yansen called out the names and employee numbers of Xiang Pengfei, Yuan Wei, Li Hui, Meng Xibo, and others in turn, and personally distributed gold coins to them.
At first, they thought the big boss personally handing out awards was just a formality, but they didn't expect Chen Yansen to be able to accurately remember everyone's information.
The company provided everything: cash, bonuses, and respect.
Several employees who were easily moved to tears immediately had tears in their eyes and even cried out loud.
They are no longer naive college students. After several years of working in the workplace and witnessing the cruelty of social competition, they have come to realize that Chen Yansen is completely different from other bosses, and is simply a saint reincarnated.
Ali's employees work from 9 am to 9 pm, six days a week, but they only need to work four days a week.
Ali typically offers 16 months' salary, while Pinbei offers a minimum of 20 months' salary.
In addition, the benefits are plentiful, including holiday red envelopes, meal allowances, transportation subsidies, medical insurance, and subsidies for the internal online mall.
Even the cleaning lady at Pinbei has never considered changing jobs.
An hour later, Chen Yansen stepped down from the award stage, went back to his office for a short rest, and then immediately went to the first floor to distribute gold coins to the three-year veteran employees of Orange Technology.
At 3:00 PM sharp, the marketing department released the internal promotional photos for the awards ceremony.
Once the money is spent, of course we should let more people know about it!
This can both increase the enthusiasm of fresh graduates to submit their resumes and reduce the difficulty of recruitment for the human resources department.
"30 grams of gold coins for three years, 100 grams for ten years, Brother Sen is inhumanly generous!"
"Just wondering, are the frontline employees of KuaiPao and YunSu included? Brother Sen always says he's brothers with delivery drivers and food delivery workers, so he probably won't exclude his 'brothers' when it comes to giving out benefits, right?"
"We're located in Shenzhen. In our workshop, there are two employees who have been with us for three years and just got their gold coins."
"Holy crap! They even have people tightening screws? Really?"
"Not a buddy? So the guy who tightens screws isn't human?"
Are you questioning the legitimacy of the title of the world's richest person?
In the comment sections of various social media platforms, netizens are discussing the topic animatedly.
What netizens failed to notice was that their thinking about whether delivery drivers, food delivery workers, and factory workers were eligible to receive gold coins was completely wrong.
Because they subconsciously excluded these frontline employees from the scope of Senlian Capital's employees.
But Chen Yansen never forgot the contributions of the frontline staff. All eligible veteran employees received their own commemorative gold coins.
After receiving the gold coins, some people treasured them and carefully locked them in their cabinets at home, while others immediately listed them on second-hand trading platforms to sell. Still others melted down the gold coins and made bracelets, rings, or necklaces for their wives or mothers.
Before Chen Yansen could even comment, netizens were already unhappy, criticizing the employees who transferred the gold coins as "a disgrace to Senlian Capital" and blaming Chen for his good intentions.
Before leaving get off work, Xiong Li called Chen Yansen to update him on the online controversy.
"It's okay. Once the gold coins are distributed to the employees, they will own them. There's no need to interfere."
Chen Yansen said nonchalantly.
After hanging up the phone, Xiong Li immediately sent an open letter to the group, conveying Chen Yansen's attitude.
Chen Yansen posted a message on Douyin, clearly stating that employees have full control over the gold coins.
As long as the employees are happy, the company won't stop them even if the money is wasted.
He also sent special blessings to the employees who used gold coins to make jewelry for their families, praising them for "knowing how to love their families, and thus loving the company."
After seeing Chen Yansen's video, many employees who originally wanted to exchange their gold coins for jewelry felt embarrassed and thought to themselves, "I should keep the gold coins. The boss didn't scold me; he's just very well-mannered. I can't let him down."
But what they didn't know was that Chen Yansen genuinely didn't care.
The commemorative gold coin incident involving Senlian Capital caused a great stir online.
After learning this, many college students became even more determined to work for Senlian Capital after graduation.
Some freshmen have already started searching online for interview questions from Senlian Capital to prepare for their future job search.
The next day.
Senlian Capital CFO Gao Weilin announced the group's name change via the official Weibo account: Starting December 2nd, "Senlian Capital" will be officially renamed "Senlian Group".
After all, with its business scope constantly expanding, Senlian Capital is no longer a simple investment company, but a multinational giant covering dozens of industries. The word "capital" can no longer fully summarize its business attributes.
At the same time, "Orange Garment" was renamed "Orange Co., Ltd.", and its business scope covers clothing, footwear and other categories.
That afternoon.
The chairman's office is located on the top floor of Building 1 in Senlian Science and Technology Park.
"Old Hu, welcome home!"
Chen Yansen held Hu Yongfan's hand and said with a smile.
Three years ago, Hu Yongfan used the stock option subsidy given to him by Chen Yansen to pursue a three-year master's degree in finance in Canada.
"Thank you, Brother Sen, for taking me in."
Hu Yongfan thanked him repeatedly.
He spoke very politely and modestly.
Given his resume and education, he could easily choose any of the three major e-commerce platforms.
But Chen Yansen still remembered their past friendship, and this sentiment deeply moved Hu Yongfan.
"Pinbei doesn't have any business development positions right now. You should go to the business development and operations department for three months to get used to it. Everyone in the department is a familiar face, so you can quickly get familiar with the business. As for your future development, it depends on how much progress you make in the next few years."
Chen Yansen said slowly and deliberately.
Hu Yongfan is a long-time employee of FoxTao. After FoxTao was sold to Ali, he did not choose to work for Ali, but instead chose to continue his studies, making him quite an "outlier" among his old colleagues.
"Okay, Brother Sen, I'll definitely do my best!" Hu Yongfan replied, then tactfully got up and left the office, taking the elevator to Building No. 2 across the street.
Compared to three years ago, Chen Yansen's social status has undergone tremendous changes. The fact that the other party was willing to take a few minutes to catch up with him was already a great honor, and he did not want to waste Chen Yansen's precious time.
Walking down the street, he couldn't help but think: if he hadn't gone to school and had stayed at Pinduoduo, he would probably be financially independent by now.
But life doesn't offer "what ifs"!
However, I'm only 27 years old this year, so it's not too late for me to work hard!
On the other side, after Hu Yongfan left, Chen Yansen also walked out of the office and took the elevator to the first floor.
Then, they walked to the laboratory of Orange Biotechnology Company, took out samples of several rice varieties such as "Super Resilience No. 1" and "Soft Japonica A" from the germplasm bank, and conducted gene screening on them one by one in an attempt to find a better breeding direction.
In the grain industry, the taste and yield of rice are equally important. Only by having a differentiated advantage can the product's premium be increased.
For the breeding industry, the ideal goal is to develop varieties that combine the yield of indica rice with the taste of japonica rice.
Other breeding companies often need five to eight generations of breeding to achieve this goal, and only when the offspring's traits are stable can a homozygous strain be formed.
But Chen Yansen doesn't need to. Once his talent for the Planck Clock is activated, experimental fields can appear in his mind.
He can simulate the entire process from hybridization and offspring segregation to variety stabilization with his powerful mental strength. In a short moment, he can design thousands of different parental combinations and hybridization schemes.
It may seem like a figment of his imagination, but in the process of simulation, he combined key factors from multiple disciplines such as plant physiology, pathology, soil science, and meteorology.
Although the simulation results may not be 100% accurate, they can point him in the general right direction for research.
Once the direction is determined, by building regional experimental fields and combining techniques such as anther culture, homozygous strains can be obtained in just one to two generations, halving the traditional breeding cycle.
While Chen Yansen was busy with breeding and selection, Orange Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Technology and Orange Construction were also recruiting extensively, all for overseas positions.
On Mimo, many Chinese working in Abyssinia share that although conditions are poor, the income is high; you can become an emperor for a thousand dollars.
In Abyssinia, the average person earns only five or six hundred yuan a month.
To earn one or two thousand a month, you need to meet three conditions: first, you need to know English; second, you need to master a skill; and finally, you need to have a formal job.
However, the salary level of local Chinese is completely different, with the lowest monthly salary being 10,000 yuan, and the company also provides meals and accommodation.
Income inequality is directly reflected in the cost of living.
Here, you can hire a nanny for seven or eight hundred yuan and a driver for one thousand yuan.
The facilities were lacking, but the comfort of being a "local tyrant" in East Africa still made many Chinese reluctant to leave.
If you plan to settle there long-term, the cost is also very low, with land costing only $20 per square meter and a quota of 100 square meters per person.
Leggee's real estate policy, seemingly about selling land at low prices, is actually aimed at stimulating the development of cement, steel, and brick factories.
Only when there is a demand for housing to generate orders will related factories be attracted to set up shop.
You suffer losses in the early stages, but make money later.
After all, without giving up something, how can you gain something?
Looking at Abyssinia's current situation, it has neither an industrial base nor a sea outlet to generate revenue through toll collection.
If they can't even attract investment, ordinary people will probably have to grow coffee their whole lives and raise cattle and sheep for generations.

...
Chun Shen, Shaobei Town.
At the entrance of the Yunsu Express service station, there is a huge, eye-catching recruitment poster.
"Vegetable grower"
Job Requirements: Vegetable planting; vegetable harvesting; pest and disease control.
"Job requirements: Possess relatively rich organic vegetable planting technology; be hardworking and willing to work; be able to drive a farm tricycle and perform simple farm equipment repairs, etc."
Looking at the compensation, the monthly salary is between 8,000 and 10,000 yuan.
This job seems way too easy to everyone!
In the countryside, who doesn't know how to grow some vegetables?
Eight thousand yuan a month, plus room and board?
Many people in Shaobei Town had their eyes on this idea. They stayed at home year-round tending their few acres of land, working hard but barely managing to make ends meet.
If you could join Orange Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Technology, you could earn 8,000 yuan a month. Who could resist such a temptation?
"Could it be a scam? Africa is so poor, who would they sell their vegetables to?"
"I've heard that there are many cases of kidney cutting in Southeast Asia, so this job posting must be fake."
"Are you guys stupid? This poster is right outside Yunsu Express, it's definitely a legitimate job posting!"
"Hey! This company is perfect for me. Plastering job, minimum 15,000 a month."
A group of middle-aged people in their forties gathered around the recruitment poster, discussing it loudly.
Wu Lei moved a chair and sat at the entrance of the service station. Whenever someone came up to him and asked, "Is this a recruitment drive for Senlian Group?", he would smile and nod, giving an affirmative answer.
