Chapter 1484: Chapter 1142: No Regrets (1)

August in Peng City is the most unbearably hot time of the year, with the scorching sun above and just a few steps outside can drench you in sweat.

However, the streets are still teeming with cars and people.

In recent years, the domestic economy has maintained rapid growth, and many cities are rising, with Peng City being one of the leaders!

With China’s accession to the WTO, the economy began to integrate with the world, and the coastal cities in the south, like Peng City and Yangcheng, benefited the most from this, coupled with favorable policies and support, Peng City truly has been changing with each passing day. The whole city exudes a vibrant life, getting better every day!

Moreover, Peng City has now been called the "Silicon Valley" of the country because there are quite a few large Internet companies here.

Tencent needs no further introduction; it is originally a "native" internet company of Peng City. During its early hardships, Wang Ye extended a helping hand, investing a large sum of money, and also pointed out the direction of monetizing traffic during the critical growing phase. As a result, in this life, Tencent developed even more smoothly than in Wang Ye’s previous life, with its scale expanding even faster!

By 2010, Tencent had already surpassed Alibaba, becoming the undisputed Internet giant in the nation!

Its businesses cover Internet instant communication, online games, and film entertainment, and the company has been publicly listed in Xiangjiang, with a market value of up to hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars.

Besides Tencent, Peng City has another large Internet company, which is "Facebook China."

This company is considered a joint venture between Tencent and Facebook technology companies. The product is more localized, and the data center and operation team are all run domestically.

From its inception, it had substantial financial support from Wang Ye and strong technical support from Facebook technology company, as well as massive traffic support from Tencent. In addition, the product is highly competitive, meeting the young people’s desire in the internet era to showcase themselves to more people, so it was an instant hit upon launch!

As of now, registered users of Facebook China have reached over 300 million, second only to QQ, a kind of instant messaging software, with monthly active users and daily active users being astonishing.

So, just Tencent Group and Facebook China, these two internet giants, already support Peng City’s internet realm, becoming a gathering place for nationwide internet talents.

The headquarters building of Facebook China neighbors Tencent Group, and the two companies are quite like brother companies, with many departments needing frequent coordination.

Like most internet companies, these two buildings are still brightly lit every night, with many employees working overtime, sometimes extending into the late night or even early morning, with scattered office lights still on.

However, at that time, no one protested the 996 schedule, and no one advocated for lying flat.

Because everyone had just come from hard times, truly terrified of poverty!

The economic turnaround had been not long, and people’s material lives became unprecedentedly abundant, so everyone truly invested themselves when working, truly passionate!

Most importantly, the money the company gives is indeed a lot...

......

After ten at night, Han Xiaodan got up, planning to leave the office.

She had just graduated with a Master’s Degree this year, but she is already a "veteran" member of Facebook China, and her position is not low, being the company’s Vice President of Operations!

Compared to those technical elites, Masters and Doctors from major universities nationwide, recruited after the company expanded, Han Xiaodan indeed lacked something particularly outstanding, leading to some colleagues having quite a bit of dissent behind her back.

Wondering what kind of connection does this Han Xiaodan have!

How could a recent graduate from a second-rate Peng City University hold a high-ranking position in the company?

Is it just because she joined the company early?

But that doesn’t make sense either, for Han Xiaodan, before graduating from college a few years ago, worked in the company as an intern, and only recently, after just graduating with her Master’s, was swiftly promoted to Vice President. That’s really too absurd!

Honestly, it’s hard for everyone not to be jealous, not just because of Han Xiaodan’s high position and pay benefits, but most importantly, the company is preparing to go public, and will allocate original shares based on management level and qualifications.

So, with Han Xiaodan’s Vice President status, wouldn’t she be able to get a lot of original shares, and after the company’s public listing, directly become a billionaire!

Who wouldn’t envy that...

Regarding these critiques, Han Xiaodan is not unaffected, and she doesn’t possess the strong character of someone like Zhang Xiaoxi, not having such a formidable inner strength.

But there’s nothing she can do because she herself feels this matter is somewhat absurd...

Han Xiaodan remembered, just two months ago, the day after she graduated with her Master’s, on a usual morning she came to work, and the President’s assistant called her over.

"Xiaodan, the boss wants to talk to you, come with me."

With gold-rimmed glasses, a gentle and fair-skinned male assistant said amiably to Han Xiaodan, this assistant reportedly a high achiever from Peking University, just in his thirties and already the President’s assistant, having a bright future ahead!

Moreover, this assistant seemed to have some interest in Han Xiaodan, always stopping to chat with her whenever he met her in the company, and sometimes inviting Han Xiaodan out for mountain climbing or dining over the weekend.

But Han Xiaodan mostly declined, citing her studies being too busy, except for company group activities which she would attend.
