From Inheriting a Small Factory to Becoming a Global Financial Tycoon

Chapter 36 It's Time to Formalize the Team Into a Company

At exactly 4 PM, the iconic bell rang again from the trading hall next door, signaling another important milestone in the trading day. Lin Haoran stretched his arms lazily, a satisfied smile on his face, clearly pleased with today's performance. Although Su Zhixue had yet to compile and present the detailed statistics, as someone who had participated throughout the day, Lin Haoran already had a clear sense of their achievements — today's results marked a significant leap compared to yesterday.

Especially in the battle for low-priced Wharf Holdings shares, their operations had been particularly smooth, like a skilled helmsman navigating waves, seizing every buying opportunity with precision and strength.

Thinking back to yesterday, when they had just locked onto a target order only to be outpaced by competitors, that frustration and helplessness still lingered faintly. But today, that repressed feeling had largely dissipated, replaced by a sense of ease and fulfillment.

This transformation was undoubtedly due to the expansion and strengthening of the team.

Lin Haoran understood well that the new additions were like fresh blood, invigorating every cell within the team.

What pleased him even more was that Dai Shi's trading skills were on par with Su Zhixue's.

The two expert traders working side by side not only complemented each other strategically but also formed a strong combined force in execution, pushing the entire team toward even greater achievements.

This synergy and strength were undeniably the foundation of today's success.

At that moment, Lin Haoran couldn't help but feel a twinge of regret, wondering why he hadn't foreseen the need to expand the team earlier.

Unfortunately, he had been too cautious before, afraid that increasing personnel might risk leaking his plans.

If he had been decisive a month ago and expanded the team earlier, today's results would surely have been even more impressive.

However, he also knew that life had no ifs, and there was no medicine for regret.

This slight regret, like a breeze stirring ripples across a still lake, only made him cherish the current achievements and his team's efforts even more.

It also reinforced his understanding that constant challenges and reflections were what propelled them steadily forward toward higher goals.

Quickly adjusting his mindset, Lin Haoran turned this regret into motivation to push ahead.

"President Lin, I've just finished compiling the data and here's today's detailed report.

For Green Island Cement, we successfully absorbed 648,000 shares at an average price of about 5.16 HKD per share, with a total expenditure of approximately 3.34 million HKD.

This shows that we are continuing a stable strategy with this stock.

As for Wharf Holdings, today's absorption was particularly smooth — we secured 135,000 shares at an average price of 25.29 HKD per share, spending about 3.41 million HKD in total.

Notably, compared to yesterday, today's Wharf acquisition volume is more than double, a truly exciting achievement," Su Zhixue reported methodically.

Hearing this, Lin Haoran's face lit up with satisfaction.

He knew that while the small upward trend in Green Island Cement was a good sign, the significant progress with Wharf Holdings was the real highlight of the day.

This not only reflected the accuracy of their strategy but also proved the substantial improvement in team execution and market responsiveness after adding new members.

"Very good, Zhixue, Dai Shi, you both performed exceptionally today.

Now, another matter — this temporary office space is clearly becoming too cramped.

When the other three new team members join, it will be impossible to fit everyone comfortably.

To meet our development needs, I will start looking for a larger office space immediately.

Also, starting tomorrow, we will transition to a more formal company structure.

That means regular office hours: 9 AM to 6 PM.

Does anyone have any objections?" Lin Haoran said with a smile.

In his heart, he had already decided — it was time to formalize the team and officially register a company.

"President Lin, no problem at all!" Su Zhixue responded seriously.

"In the past month, you allowed me to leave early every day to take care of my son, for which I am deeply grateful.

Now that my son has recovered well, I can fully adhere to a regular schedule and completely support the new work hours.

Thank you very much for your understanding and support."

Dai Shi also smiled and agreed:

"That's right, President Lin. The arrangement is very reasonable, and we have no objections at all.

It's completely normal and professional."

"Good. Then you can both leave early today," Lin Haoran nodded.

After Su Zhixue and Dai Shi left, Lin Haoran sat quietly at his desk, holding the latest data report compiled by Su Zhixue.

These records, along with previous data, painted a clear and impressive picture — as of today, they had invested a total of 51.67 million HKD in the stock market.

At this moment, the account balance had quietly slipped below the 30-million-HKD warning line.

Yet Lin Haoran felt no anxiety or fear.

Instead, his eyes shone with satisfaction and anticipation.

Thanks to these investments, they had successfully accumulated 7.586 million shares of Green Island Cement and 582,000 shares of Wharf Holdings.

Such holdings not only demonstrated their team's sharp market insight and operational execution but also promised substantial future returns.

After returning the reports to his desk drawer, Lin Haoran left the office with new plans in mind.

Instead of immediately leaving the busy Central District, he took his bodyguards Li Weiguo and Li Weidong and strolled to a nearby large second-hand real estate agency.

His purpose was clear — to find a suitable new office space.

This time, however, he was considering buying rather than renting.

As a man reborn with the foresight of future trends, Lin Haoran was well aware of the future of Hong Kong's real estate market.

He knew that even if a downturn like the 1983 crash came, the property market would recover and boom again.

With such knowledge, he understood that investing in real estate long-term was virtually risk-free.

If not for limited funds at the moment, he would have bought an entire office building outright.

Of course, that was something he fully intended to do eventually.

Lin Haoran firmly believed that before long, he would own a commercial building completely under his name.
