Money Flows Like Water

Cloud Sea Capital's current staff is highly professional.

However, it is far from being top-tier and still has considerable room for improvement.

If we make good use of the 100 million yuan operating fund provided by the system, and use the name of Cloud Sea Capital to actually build a professional team that serves only us, wouldn't that be wonderful?

At that point, they wouldn't be called a professional team anymore; they'd be called a top-tier team.

Frankly speaking, Zhang Yang's personal professional abilities are certainly not worthy of such enormous wealth. One should be self-aware, but there's nothing he can do about it, since the system is his father.

If you lack the expertise, just hire a professional to do your job and be a hands-off manager; there's nothing wrong with that.

With this thought, Zhang Yang suddenly understood.

"Open your mouth." It was Bei Wei's soft, gentle voice calling in my ear.

Zhang Yang smiled and gently took Bei Wei's hand.

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old? Do I need to be fed?"

"If you were a three-year-old, you'd be spoiled by me, being held in my arms every day." Bei Wei smiled as Zhang Yang held her hand.

"Oh dear, fine, fine, you're showing off your love in front of me, aren't you?" Bei Jiajia complained.

As a single person, she felt far too much malice.

After dinner, Zhang Yang picked up Bei Wei and they went back to Lakeville Regency.

As for the Panamera, Bei Jiajia simply lent it to her and drove it back.

It was midnight, inside the master bedroom of Lakeville Regency.

Zhang Yang held the soft, fragrant, and fair-skinned Bei Wei in his arms, enjoying the tranquility and peace that followed.

A man's period of clarity always grants him the greatest degree of rationality.

While Bei Wei was sleeping soundly with even breathing, Zhang Yang opened his Zheye and began his routine of refreshing Zheye.

Ever since he proved his identity as a rich guy.

His fan Zheye has skyrocketed, reaching several thousand so far.

Don't underestimate these several thousand followers.

He's not Zheye or question writers on Zheye; he's only posted a few topics so far.

With several thousand followers, he is actually quite satisfied.

The latest question he asked was about the investment industry.

The discussion has been very active, and so far there have been dozens of responses, some of which are quite professional and thoughtful.

[By the way, the most important point is that, given the financial resources you've shown, the safest option isn't actually investing in a business, managing your finances, or investing in tangible assets; living a life of leisure and enjoyment is actually the most ideal choice.]

How many rich kids have you seen squander their family fortune on eating, drinking, and having fun?

Zhang Yang glanced at it briefly, not paying much attention.

After all, when it comes to investing, you need to make your own judgments. Listening to others will almost always result in losses rather than gains.

"However, it's also good to give them a sense of accomplishment to boost their enthusiasm," Zhang Yang muttered to himself, while also commenting on some of the responses.

I'll say it again.

Anyway, since we're Zheye on this platform, nobody knows anyone else.

Well, his humble and naive demeanor is harmless; in fact, it attracts more fans and elicits more responses.

After all, the system's tasks come first.

Thank you all for your comments; I have benefited greatly from them.

I feel my knowledge is too shallow and my perspective too narrow; there's so much room for improvement.

I still need to learn more from everyone.

[Ah, yes, yes, yes]

Zhang Yang wrote down all sorts of humble words without spending a penny, and in the blink of an eye, a humble and modest rich second-generation heir, who, although wealthy, was not arrogant, emerged.

In the comments section, a bunch of respondents who were struggling financially were collectively excited, feeling a great sense of accomplishment.

They are poor and unhappy with their lives.

But so what? They're the kind of people who can get a truly wealthy man to genuinely express his gratitude to them...

[By the way, I registered a company, and I'd appreciate any advice.]

Zhang Yang then casually posted another open-ended question.

He didn't want to limit himself to a single direction; his main goal was to gather diverse opinions and see what they could say, and whether the system could adopt any reasonable suggestions.

What kind of business does the company do?

[Is it just an empty shell? What's its name? Let me look it up and satisfy my curiosity.]

[Whether you want to be a hands-off boss or do everything yourself, I suggest finding a trustworthy and professional person to manage the company for you. You can then enjoy your freedom. Being a boss who micromanages everything is exhausting.]

[It depends on the type of company. If it's a sales-oriented company, positions like finance, logistics, sales, and HR must be managed by in-house personnel.]

Bite!

The system has adopted reasonable suggestions.

In the middle of the night, Zhang Yang felt a surge of joy upon hearing the system notification suddenly ringing in his mind.

Many hands make light work.

With so many people offering suggestions, it's no surprise that the system adopts them quickly.

New mission: Major upgrade of the team

Task: Please upgrade and reorganize the existing team of Cloud Sea Capital according to the following configuration.

(One CEO, specific requirements are as follows...)

(One Chief Financial Officer, specific requirements are as follows...)

Task Reward 1: 50 experience points

Task Reward 2: One random property

Note: All successfully hired personnel will have an inherent loyalty attribute to the host.

"Tsk, this is a heavyweight mission." Zhang Yang carefully examined the new mission and couldn't help but exclaim.

Rewards are proportional to the difficulty of the task.

Look at the rewards: another fifty experience points and another random property.

Fifty experience points are enough for him to level up to the next level, and his daily cashback income will be enough to leap to a level where he earns 200,000 yuan a day and more than 70 million yuan a year.

As for a random industry?

That's a huge range! Who knows what kind of surprise the system will give him this time?

Such generous rewards naturally come with a demanding set of tasks.

Zhang Yang's understanding of this mission is to build a top-tier team belonging to Cloud Sea Capital, or to put it another way, his own.

The system has extremely high requirements for the team members.

He naturally needed to assemble the heads of various departments, from top to bottom, from the CEO to the COO, CHO, and so on.

The system has detailed and stringent requirements for these positions, specifying details such as educational background, work experience, and so on.

Recruiting these people isn't as simple as just opening your mouth and saying you'll find them.

Fortunately, he also received 100 million yuan in operating funds from the system.

The biggest problem is money. Once that's solved, everything else is easy to handle. As long as the salaries are good, there's no shortage of talent. After all, not all highly skilled people work for ideals and dreams.

Everyone is actually quite pragmatic.

"It's not that difficult. I just need to get the CEO position sorted out." Zhang Yang pondered for a moment.

As long as a qualified professional manager is found, he doesn't need to worry about anything else.

By the way, the system also said that these recruited people have an inherent loyalty attribute, and it's a kind of loyalty similar to psychological suggestion, not the kind of mechanical loyalty that comes from losing oneself.

That's good.

Who wouldn't want their team to be 100% loyal to them?

"But what about Sun Ziqiang..." Zhang Yang suddenly felt conflicted.

Sun Ziqiang is the current head of Cloud Sea Capital, serving as its CEO.

In terms of ability, they are certainly qualified.

However, it falls far short of the system's strict requirements.

Could it be that they just fired him?

The person not only didn't make any mistakes, but also handled both big and small matters quite well. To fire them like that is somewhat unfair.

Zhang Yang thought for a while, then shook his head and put the problem aside for the time being.

"Never mind, let's talk about it tomorrow."

He muttered something to himself, then held Bei Wei in his arms and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, as usual, it was Bei Wei's lovingly prepared breakfast.

Zhang Yang felt quite satisfied with the meal, both physically and mentally.

"Honey, look at the progress so far." Bei Wei leaned close to Zhang Yang, enthusiastically showing him the current progress of the bookstore's renovation.

Zhang Yang glanced at it and thought, "Hmm, it's starting to take shape; the progress is quite fast."

"Is the budget enough? If not, I'll get you some more money."

"That's enough, that's enough." Bei Wei's eyes were gentle, and she kissed Zhang Yang on the cheek. "Every time I go over there, the managers from Yunheng Building always come over to say hello, and I get a little embarrassed."

"They're all working for me, so it's normal for them to be a little enthusiastic towards you. You can take it for granted," Zhang Yang said with a smile.

The boss's girlfriend is here; how could his managers not be enthusiastic?

In other words, Bei Wei isn't quite used to it yet.

After breakfast, Bei Jiajia arrived in Bei Wei's Panamera, and the two prepared to go to the company together.

"Good morning, brother-in-law." This morning, Bei Jiajia wore a short skirt that didn't reach her knees, and her short hair reached her ears, giving her a fresh and youthful look. "By the way, brother-in-law, don't I look ethereal in this outfit today?"

"A little brat," Zhang Yang glanced at her and commented casually.

"Sis, my brother-in-law said I look like I'm eighteen!" Bei Jiajia said happily, pulling Bei Wei along.

Zhang Yang shook his head and got into the Cullinan first.

"Drive carefully later, I have something to do, I need to go to the company first."

He waved and strode away.

In the rearview mirror, two youthful and vibrant figures made for a striking sight.

··

At Cloud Sea Capital, Zhang Yang sat in the chairman's office, deep in thought.

"Sun Ziqiang has only been with Cloud Sea Capital for less than three months."

"Forget it, a merciful person can't command an army. Whether I stay or leave is just a matter of my word. I can't let important matters linger."

Although he was conflicted, he ultimately prioritized the bigger picture.

The answer to what to do has already been known.

"Sun Ziqiang, come to my office." Zhang Yang made a phone call using the landline on his desk.

A moment later, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Zhang Yang looked up and glanced at him.

Sun Ziqiang pushed open the door and walked into the office.

"Old Sun... it's like this, there's something..." Zhang Yang tidied his words, preparing to speak directly.

He hadn't spoken yet.

"Chairman Zhang, actually, I also have something I'd like to discuss with you." Sun Ziqiang looked troubled.

"Huh? What is it? You go first." Zhang Yang didn't rush to speak and gestured for Sun Ziqiang to speak first.

"I've come to resign from my post," Sun Ziqiang said, rubbing his hands together.

Zhang Yang blinked, feigning surprise, "Old Sun, you were doing so well, why did you want to quit? Is it because of the pay, or something else...?"

"No, no, Chairman Zhang, I absolutely didn't mean that," Sun Ziqiang quickly denied.

"There are some personal reasons, and I hope Chairman Zhang will approve."

Zhang Yang sighed and tried several more times to persuade Sun Ziqiang to stay, but Sun Ziqiang was determined to leave, so he had no choice but to...

"Alright, since you want to leave, I won't stop you."

"Thank you, Chairman Zhang. I will make sure to hand over my work properly before I leave," Sun Ziqiang said with a delighted expression.

Zhang Yang didn't say anything, just waved his hand.

Sun Ziqiang quickly lowered his head and carefully left the office first.

He had barely left when, in the chairman's office...

"What a coincidence. I just wonder why Old Sun is leaving..." Zhang Yang muttered to himself, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Do you think his boss is ambitious but incompetent, and sees no future in him?

Or is there a better place to go?

Or perhaps, both?

Whatever the reason for leaving, it's at least fulfilling Zhang Yang's wishes, saving him the trouble of playing the villain.

"Find a headhunter and recruit people." Zhang Yang readily approved Sun Ziqiang's resignation and began contacting professional headhunters to poach suitable professional managers who met the system's requirements.

As required by the system.

His professional manager must be impeccable in both educational and professional background.

For example, basic qualifications include graduating from Tsinghua or Peking University, studying finance at Harvard University, having at least ten years of work experience at a top investment bank, and having achieved remarkable results.

If he can make these demands, then he can certainly afford a high salary.

Even if he can't compare to the tens of millions of yuan annual salary of executives at Fortune 500 companies, he can still afford to drive a car for several million yuan.

Soon, Zhang Yang contacted a group of well-known headhunting firms in the industry and discussed his specific requirements.

He doesn't need to worry about anything when professionals handle things.

Just sit back and wait.

With 100 million yuan in operating funds, it seems that using it all up this year will be quite a challenge.

"Why don't we just get some more company cars?" Zhang Yang thought for a moment.

In any case, vehicles registered under the company's name can be included in the scope of operating funds.

It's only right to use this money to buy some company vehicles.

As for which car to buy?

Now that he's a boss, he needs a car with a driver, right? Rolls-Royce Phantom is a must.

When occasionally traveling with your assistants, you'll definitely need a business vehicle, right? From a small Sprinter to a high- Toyota customized Coaster, you'd definitely need one, wouldn't you?

Adding some company cars, starting with Maybach or something, wouldn't be unreasonable, right?

By the way, with so many cars bought, the company will need three to five drivers, right?

Having money you can't spend? That's impossible.

In just a short while, Zhang Yang casually thought about it and realized that as long as he wanted to use money, there were always places where he could spend it.

"Let's get the car and everything arranged first."

He casually called someone from the General Office to get the vehicle purchase sorted out.
