Chapter 169 Opening a Company in Shanghai
Chapter 169 Opening a Company in Shanghai
After renting the house, he and Sam went to the Municipal Council to register the company name.
The investment company registered by Gu Wenxuan was named "Taxing" Company. Sam thought the name was strange, but he did not ask because he did not particularly understand Chinese culture and psychology.
Of course, Gu Wenxuan has his own inner thoughts about his Star-Traveling Company, which is to go beyond the earth and explore the interstellar space in the future!
Or the American name Sam is simple and clear.
His company is called "Sam International Investment and Trading Company!"
The next step is for them to recruit each other's employees.
Originally, Sam was responsible for recruiting employees for Gu Wenxuan's company because Gu Wenxuan was not very familiar with stock investors at that time.
Gu Wenxuan recruited another employee on his own initiative.
That was Chen Sijia, because Gu Wenxuan heard that Chen Sijia was still in Shanghai, and Chen Sijia's family was also businessmen with many connections in the Jiangnan area. Letting her take a position in his company might have some benefits, and it could also be regarded as a supervisor on his side.
I can't completely trust Sam that he won't lie to me. I have to find someone I can trust!
Gu Wenxuan has already regarded Chen Sijia as his confidant, although Chen Sijia has a rather vicious tongue!
Gu Wenxuan picked up the phone and called Chen Sijia. This was the phone number that Chen Sijia gave him when he left last time.
The call was connected, and Chen Sijia's lazy voice came from the phone:
"Hey, who is it?"
"Me! Your benefactor!"
Chen Sijia's excited voice was clearly heard on the phone: "Hello, is that you? Xiao Te...Xiao Xuan Xuan?"
Gu Wenxuan: "Of course it's me, where are you!"
Chen Sijia said incoherently: "Of course I'm at home, oh no, at home in Shanghai! Where are you, Xiaoxuanxuan? How come you have time to call me today? When will you come to Shanghai to visit me?"
Gu Wenxuan: "I'm in Shanghai now. Do you have time to come out? Can we have a cup of coffee?"
"Gu Wenxuan, you didn't lie to me, did you? You are in Shanghai, but I never heard that you were coming to Shanghai. If you lied to me, I will beat you to death!"
"I'm at the French Concession, at the Wutong Café. You need to come to me in 10 minutes, or I'll leave!"
Gu Wenxuan only heard the sound of the phone being hung up coming from the microphone.
"Hey, Chen Sijia, did you hear that?"
Gu Wenxuan couldn't help but smile bitterly: This Chen Sijia is so irritable all day long, I guess she put down the phone and came to me.
Gu Wenxuan made the call from Sam's office since he was the general manager of both companies.
So Gu Wenxuan still didn't avoid him when he called him, he didn't have any secrets anyway.
At this time, Sam saw Gu Wenxuan smiling while talking on the phone, and he asked curiously:
"Mr. Gu, do you have any acquaintances in Shanghai? Is it a man or a woman? You smile so brightly, you must be a beautiful woman!"
Gu Wen stretched his body first and said, "Sam, you are quite observant. I think you are suitable to be a spy!"
Sam shook his head: "Being a spy is exciting, but it is too dangerous. I still like to enjoy life! There are many ways to find excitement in this world, such as going to the stock market, which is also a very exciting place. It's heaven in one day and hell in another!"
What Gu Wenxuan admired about Sam was that he was straightforward! He was also handsome and comfortable to look at. Even men would not feel disgusted when looking at him.
"The person I'm meeting is Miss Chen Sijia. She's from Jiangnan, which means her hometown is not far from Shanghai. Her family is a big family with a big business.
We also have business in Shanghai. We met in Beijing before. Now that I am in Shanghai, of course I have to ask her to treat me to a delicious meal!
And I want her to be my manager of my brokerage investment company, that is, she will be the deputy manager and you will be the general manager!"
Sam didn't look unhappy at all. His original purpose of becoming the general manager with Gu Wenxuan was to get Gu Wenxuan to invest in his own trading company. The most he could do was to help him keep an eye on his stock investment company.
Most of the business still needs to be done by the employees he recruits.
When he heard that Gu Wenxuan was going to recruit a Chinese manager, he was so happy that he couldn't contain himself. How could he not be happy?
"Oh, Mr. Gu, that's great. If you hire a local Chinese manager, we can communicate better!"
"Then Sam, I'm going out to treat this beautiful lady to coffee, do you want to come with me?"
Sam shrugged: "I won't go on a date with a beautiful woman. I don't want to be a third wheel!"
This guy is really an expert on China. He even understands the meaning of a light bulb.
Gu Wenxuan left Sam's office and went straight downstairs.
The Wutong Coffee Shop in the French Concession is actually right opposite Gu Wenxuan’s office building.
As Gu Wenxuan walked across the street, a red, very old-style car stopped in front of him in a very stylish manner.
Chen Sijia, wearing a bright red dress, got out of the car. She was wearing modern high heels and a pair of sunglasses. She walked up to Gu Wenxuan with a proud look and stood in front of him.
"Xiao Xuanxuan, I'm not late, am I?"
His ambiguous call attracted the attention of many men and women passing by, making Gu Wenxuan feel very embarrassed.
He glared at Chen Sijia fiercely, then turned and walked towards the second floor of the cafe.
Chen Sijia didn't find it strange, and followed him up to the coffee shop on the second floor.
Arriving at the coffee shop on the second floor, they chose a small booth. After they sat down, a waiter came and asked them what kind of coffee they wanted.
"Mister and Madam, what kind of coffee do you want?"
Chen Sijia raised her little hand: "Give us two cups of Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee!"
"Okay, Miss and Mr., please wait a moment!"
After a while, two cups of coffee were brought.
This coffee cup looks like ivory, white with a slight yellow tint, and is very comfortable to look at.
The waiter also brought some snacks, which were considered free snacks. Gu Wenxuan knew that these two cups of coffee must be worth a lot of money.
Gu Wenxuan was a little thirsty, so he took a sip of coffee. The coffee tasted a bit bitter, and he couldn't help but pout.
Chen Sijia looked at it and smiled: "How does the coffee taste? This is authentic Blue Mountain coffee shipped from Jamaica. In the whole of Shanghai, I'm afraid only the French Concession can drink it. You are in for a treat!"
Gu Wenxuan: "This is like a cup of coffee made from Chinese medicinal herbs. I don't understand what you guys are tasting!"
Chen Sijia curled her pretty lips and said, "You are just an old wild boar, you can't eat fine bran!"
Gu Wenxuan quickly pinched a piece of dessert and threw it into his mouth: "Luckily there is some dessert here, otherwise it would be so bitter!"
