Inside the entire office building, all the employees were sitting neatly at their workstations; not a single person had taken a day off.
This caught Lu Yiming off guard.
"We agreed on a two-day work week followed by a five-day weekend. Shouldn't today be a holiday too? Why are you guys still at the company?" Lu Yiming asked, somewhat bewildered.
"Chairman, we are here to work overtime voluntarily."
"Yes, Chairman, it's ten times the salary, we'll definitely come and work overtime."
"Chairman, I want to buy a house in Shanghai. I've decided to work hard at the company."
...
A group of employees said with smiles.
In just one day, Lu Yiming had already closed the distance between himself and them.
Some employees even dared to joke with Lu Yiming.
This was something I wouldn't have dared to even dream of at my previous company.
"You...sigh...you guys..." Lu Yiming didn't know what to say and sighed.
"You guys should take advantage of your youth to travel and see more of the world, since it's paid leave anyway."
"What you've done is truly a betrayal of my good intentions."
"Chairman, we are willing to dedicate ourselves to the company!"
"That's right! Chairman, I really love coming to work at the company now!"
"Chairman, we understand your good intentions, and we are truly here voluntarily to work overtime!"
...
The employees all spoke up to persuade him, fearing that Lu Yiming would feel guilty.
They discussed it in the employee group last night.
We can't let a good boss like Lu Yiming suffer a loss!
Paying ten times the normal wage for overtime is already a top-tier benefit!
If they really work two days on and five days off, then the company will have no one to do its work and will really go bankrupt.
Their good days will be over then!
They can't do that!
Not only should they not let the company go bankrupt, they should make the company make more money!
Only if the company keeps operating can their happy life continue!
These highly educated working people understand the principle of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold" (meaning that if one's lips are gone, one's teeth will be cold).
Good heavens, this bizarre scene completely stunned the viewers in the live stream.
"What the hell are they doing? Are they begging to work overtime?"
"Holy crap, did I stay up too late last night and not wake up properly? How could I have witnessed such a bizarre scene?"
"My goodness! There are actually people who voluntarily come to work overtime? But if they really offered ten times the pay, I'd be willing to work overtime too."
"Putting everything else aside, this is truly voluntary overtime work."
...
"Sigh, alright then, you guys can work overtime," Lu Yiming said with a helpless but serious expression.
"But let me make this clear first: this overtime is all voluntary. If anyone forces you to work overtime, you can come to me immediately and I'll fire them!"
Moreover, when you work overtime, you can leave whenever you want and get off work whenever you want.
Those who need to pick up their children should do so, and those who need to take care of their elderly should do so.
Don't let work interfere with your family life.
And! You must leave work before 5 PM! No one is allowed to work overtime after that time! Do you understand?!
Anyway, he was paid ten times the normal wage for overtime, so having employees work overtime would only make Lu Yiming lose even more money.
Lu Yiming couldn't be happier!
If he weren't afraid of some unscrupulous capitalists accusing him of maliciously raising wages, Lu Yiming would even be willing to offer twenty or thirty times the overtime pay.
Even though Lu Yiming put on such a serious expression, the employees in the office area weren't afraid at all; instead, they said with smiles:
"Long live the Chairman! We will resolutely carry out the Chairman's orders!"
"Wuhu! Take off! Long live the Chairman! I can stay and work overtime now!"
"Waaaaah! Chairman, how can you be so kind!"
...
Countless employees secretly made up their minds.
must!
We must make sure Lu Yiming wins this identity-swap challenge!
We must make Lu Yiming the true leader of Founder Investment!
...
After giving his instructions, Lu Yiming returned to his office.
[Ding! Paying employees ten times their overtime pay would have resulted in a projected loss of 89.74 million yuan this month! We're now offering you a tenfold refund!]
[Ding! 897.4 million yuan has been deposited into your private account!]
You currently possess assets of 1.6482 billion yuan.
"Chairman, several of our fund managers have arrived at the office. Would you like to call them in so they can give you some stock trading advice?" Mu Xia asked as she entered the office.
Founder Investment has several hundred million yuan in private equity funds, which are managed by a few fund managers.
They are all seasoned stock market veterans, top-tier financial geniuses who graduated from the world's best financial institutions, and have an exceptionally high level of understanding of the stock market.
With their advice, even a complete novice like Lu Yiming could quickly get the hang of it and at least break even.
But Lu Yiming rejected Mu Xia, saying in a serious tone:
"To be honest, I also have my own insights into stock trading."
"Oh? What insightful opinion does the Chairman have?"
That means, I will never buy stocks that others are hyping up! But I will buy the junk stocks that others don't want!
"Take this [Jincheng Coal] for example!"
Lu Yiming pointed to the stock on his computer screen and said in a serious tone:
"It has been falling for five or six years and is about to hit the bottom. This is a good opportunity to buy!"
It will definitely go up in the future.
"Huh?" Mu Xia was stunned.
She looked at the stock chart of Jincheng Coal on the computer and said hesitantly:
