How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Chapter 324 - 156: Dismissal and Full Force

In the morning, the members of the HAC club had all but strolled through the entire Hall 5...

As for the other halls...

Majority were just ordinary brand new car launches...

Not to mention Gu Heng couldn’t be bothered to visit, they were also not interested, all sitting in the reception hall of the International Exhibition Center chatting away...

....

[Host made a conspicuous display of wealth at an international A-level car show, flamboyantly spending 171 million cash to purchase 21 top-tier supercars, having a huge impact! Indulgence rewarded: 750 million, balance 500 million, excess funds this time 280 million.

Company balance: 600 million.]

Another 280 million lost...

If it weren’t for the fact that I had injected another 300 million into the company a few days ago, it would have been another 300 million down the drain...

Adding up the previous overflows, I’ve lost several billion already...

Basically hemorrhaged a standard listed company into existence...

Suddenly, while basking in the satisfaction from the system, Gu Heng picked up a phone call while seated on the couch...

20 seconds later, after hanging up, Gu Heng stood up and sheepishly said to Fu Songyang, "Brother Yang, I probably won’t be able to have lunch with you today."

Fu Songyang was engrossed in a conversation, and puzzled by Gu Heng’s statement, he asked, "What happened?"

Gu Heng shook his head, "Nothing serious, just that the general manager of my company has returned from Yangcheng City to Beijing to report on the project status to me, and also, the financial director that I had headhunters scout for me has terminated their contract with their previous company today and is coming to join mine.

I need to make a trip to the company."

Upon hearing this, Fu Songyang nodded and said, "A new company has a lot on its plate, so since you’re busy, you should go take care of it. We can eat anytime."

7 billion in cash, apart from a few big shots at the top of the rich list or those giant corporations, how many people could lay claim to it?

And Fu Songyang, looking at their disbelief, didn’t bother to explain. After all, he had said his piece, whether they believed it or not was up to them.

...

...

Gu Heng, unaware of Fu Songyang’s bragging on his behalf, drove his Bugatti Divo to the International Trade Center Tower A...

"Mr. Gu!"

As soon as the car arrived, he saw Shu Yan and Tu Yong leading a group of well-dressed men and women by the building side, greeting him.

With over a hundred companies occupying International Trade Center Tower A, people coming and going were a constant sight. On witnessing this scene, they couldn’t help but look over curiously...

Gu Heng, still in his car, frowned at the sight of this group’s antics and remarked, "What’s all this?

Are you here to act as the company’s executives or to welcome guests? If you love welcoming people so much, might as well take turns at the company’s reception desk."

Hearing Gu Heng’s dual-edged words, Shu Yan and Tu Yong were most embarrassed...

They thought Gu Heng, being a young man, might appreciate the pomp...

So upon knowing when Gu Heng would be arriving at the company, they immediately gathered some employees who were less busy to come down and greet him...

But they didn’t expect their attempt at flattery to backfire...

Seeing their embarrassed expressions, and with quite a crowd watching, Gu Heng didn’t continue to berate them. He got out of the car, tossed the keys to Tu Yong, and said, "I don’t know where the property management has arranged for parking, have someone park the car for me."

After saying that, he headed straight for the elevator.

Tu Yong, understanding from Gu Heng’s demeanor that he likely didn’t appreciate this kind of spectacle, found himself unable to explain in the circumstance. He just handed the car keys to a young man beside him and quickly followed after Gu Heng.

Gu Heng was only responsible for recruiting the senior management; although most of the middle management were also headhunted by his instruction, the interviews were conducted by Shu Yan and Tu Yong. To put it bluntly, out of the more than thirty people in the company, Gu Heng knew only a handful...
