Chapter 259 Money Moves People's Hearts
The momentum of the mobile phone is fierce and unstoppable.
Just a few days later, you could hear slogans like "No gifts this Lunar New Year, only mobile phones" and "Oriental mobile phone, connecting all directions" all over the streets and alleys of Hong Kong Island.
The financing and listing proceeded smoothly, just as Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing had predicted.
Ultimately, Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing decided to merge Oriental Technology and Oriental Mobile into Oriental Group.
Oriental Group eventually raised HK$10 billion in its first round of financing, and its market value reached HK$25 billion upon listing, making it a top-tier conglomerate well-known in Hong Kong.
Gu Jinxing and Shen Wancheng have become the most dazzling couple in Hong Kong's business circle.
In order to ensure that Shen Wancheng's net worth and reputation were no less than Gu Jinxing's, Xu Pingtao even took the opportunity to officially announce that Shen Wancheng was the heir to the He Group.
Of course, Xu Pingtao also benefited from doing this. The stronger Shen Wancheng's reputation, the more stable the He Group would be, as it would have a worthy successor.
During the period of Oriental Group's rapid and stable development, Shen Wancheng not only did not sit idly by and watch Oriental Group's market value soar and its wealth increase, but was also very busy.
First, there was the training at Shen Wancheng's postpartum care center. Shen Wancheng temporarily rented a training venue, spent a few days writing a training manual, and then recorded standard videos on various infant and maternal care.
Because Shen Wancheng was pregnant and unable to record, she had Su Nanxue and Yu Qingyu record it together.
As for the arrangements for Su Nanxue and Yu Qingyu, Shen Wancheng first transferred Su Nanxue to her side so that she could follow her around and learn assistant experience little by little through practice.
As for the more meticulous Yu Qingyu, Shen Wancheng allowed her to continue working in the postpartum care center's training department, managing and supervising the trainers. Shen Wancheng usually spent her free time training there, and Yu Qingyu actually assisted her more, which allowed her to adapt to the new environment.
Aside from the postpartum care center, Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing have already begun to deal with Xu Youwei. This is the most important thing for Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing to do after the Oriental Group has achieved stable development.
Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing wanted to deal with Xu Youwei so that he would be completely ruined and they could not get their reputations tarnished.
In Hong Kong during this period, it wouldn't be difficult for Shen Wancheng and Gu Jinxing to deal with a small fry, but dealing with Xu Youwei, who had the same economic power and social status as them, would require a long-term plan.
A few days after the mobile phone became a hot seller.
One evening, Shen Wancheng had just returned home from the training center at the postpartum care center.
Aunt Liu was already preparing dinner, while Shen Wancheng was in the living room talking to Li Su about work on her mobile phone.
Just as Shen Wancheng hung up the phone, Ke La came to her side and said...
"Boss, you told me to keep an eye on Wang Hao. His behavior has been a bit strange lately."
Kela has been protecting Shen Wancheng for several months now, and they eat and live together every day.
Cora is very capable, and having Cora around makes her feel very safe.
Moreover, Cora is very mindful of boundaries. When Shen Wancheng is at home, she is either in her room or somewhere she can see Shen Wancheng, and she would never go anywhere in the villa without permission.
All of this made Shen Wancheng like Kela very much. Shen Wancheng had previously told Kela not to call her "Miss Shen" all the time, as it sounded too distant.
Kera started calling Shen Wancheng "boss".
Shen Wancheng initially felt that this form of address was rather unfamiliar, but after hearing it more often, she found it inexplicably comfortable.
After Shen Wancheng trusted Ke La, she stopped letting Gu Jinxing handle everything, since she also needed to train her own people.
But recruiting people is difficult, and recruiting capable people that you can trust is even more difficult.
Therefore, Shen Wancheng entrusted some tasks to Kela and gradually trained her.
When Shen Wancheng heard Ke La say that, it took her a moment to remember who Wang Hao was.
It was the researcher in the technology department who was fired by Shen Wancheng back when Oriental Technology and Oriental Mobile were still together.
Although Wang Hao signed a confidentiality agreement, he would have to pay HK$10 billion in compensation for the leak.
This amount of money is something Wang Hao could never earn in his entire life, but if he can fool people, it's hard to say that no corporation would be willing to pay the penalty for him.
Shen Wancheng wasn't worried that Wang Hao, who only had a superficial understanding, could produce the mobile phone and mobile network before her. However, if Wang Hao released the news in advance, the impact of the mobile phone's release and sales would definitely be affected, and the desired effect would not be achieved.
Another point is that mobile phones already exist overseas. Shen Wancheng took advantage of the current information gap. If the news about mobile phones were leaked in advance, it would also let overseas mobile phone companies know and enter the Hong Kong market ahead of time.
For these reasons, although Shen Wancheng fired Wang Hao, she still had Ke La send someone to keep an eye on him.
Now that the mobile phone has been listed on the market, Shen Wancheng originally thought that after a while, she could withdraw the people who were watching Wang Hao.
Unexpectedly, Wang Hao's behavior became abnormal at this moment.
Shen Wancheng asked, "What unusual behavior?"
“Wang Hao also bought a mobile phone and made frequent calls every day. At the same time, he also had frequent contact with researchers from Dongfang Technology. On two occasions, it was obvious that Wang Hao was waiting for the researcher he was frequently contacting on his way home.”
Shen Wancheng raised an eyebrow. It was truly an open secret that Sima Zhao harbored such intentions.
After thinking about it carefully, Shen Wancheng could understand Wang Hao's feelings.
When Wang Hao was at the company, he knew that what they were developing was novel and practical, and that once it was completed, it would definitely be accepted by the public.
But Wang Hao never expected the Big Brother Conference to be so popular.
Putting yourself in Wang Hao's shoes, you might not have regretted disrespecting Shen Wancheng to her face before, but you definitely regret it now.
But what's the use of regret? Shen Wancheng could just fire him back then, and now that the product is finished, even if he cries and repents, Shen Wancheng won't even glance at him. Wang Hao is well aware of this.
But money can be a powerful motivator. Faced with such enormous benefits, Wang Hao eventually had other ideas, which is why he deliberately tried to run into his former colleagues. His frequent phone calls were probably also to seek help or something similar.
With just one sentence from Cora, Shen Wancheng completely understood Wang Hao's thoughts.
However, for a nobody like Wang Hao, it's all insignificant. As long as he dares to take action, whether openly or covertly, dealing with him won't be difficult.
Shen Wancheng hadn't really taken this matter seriously.
When Gu Jinxing returned that evening, he told Shen Wancheng that Xu Youwei was also interested in the Oriental Group. Xu Youwei knew that given the current strained relationship between him, Shen Wancheng, and Gu Jinxing, he would never openly allow Xu Youwei to get involved. Therefore, Xu Youwei secretly cooperated with another family to have that family participate in the Oriental Group's financing competition.
After hearing about Xu Youwei's matter, Shen Wancheng thought about what she had learned about Wang Hao that afternoon.
An idea immediately came to mind.
