Chapter 1566 1568 [Please answer 1994]
In 1995, the government lifted the ban on marriage between people with the same surname.
??Sunwoo and Paula immediately began to prepare for the wedding.
When their daughter got married, Dongri and Yihua were very reluctant to part with her, and even Deshan was in tears.
…
In 1996, the government wanted to develop Shuangmendong in Daofeng District, and the residents had to relocate.
?So Cui Ze''s family, Deshan''s family, Xiang Nan''s family, Shanyu''s family, and Donglong all moved to Jiangnan.
Actually, Xiang Nan had already proposed that his family and Deshan’s parents move to Jiangnan. After all, he has nothing else but plenty of houses.
After four years of college, he basically kept buying a house every two months. With dozens of houses in his hands, he can be called a Jiangnan homeowner.
However, Deshan''s parents did not want to take advantage of their son-in-law. In addition, Explorer had been losing money for just two years since it was founded. When Dongri saw this, he was naturally not willing to let the children spend money, so he preferred to continue living in his half. underground.
In 1996, the business of the Explorer website began to improve, and coupled with investments from major investment banks, Explorer had ample funds. Deshan''s income increased significantly.
So she and her sister jointly invested, plus her father’s pension, and finally bought a house in Jiangnan. We live in the same building as Cui Ze''s family, Xiang Nan''s family, and Donglong''s family, and they still have a door-to-door relationship.
In this way, everyone no longer has to separate. It is naturally convenient to visit each other, chat, and send things.
?At the end of 1996, Xiang Nan’s brother-in-law Yuhui also successfully graduated from the Vocal Music Department of Qiuxi University of the Arts.
When he was in his first year, he participated in the National Song Competition held in Daofeng District, and became interested in singing. Therefore, I prepared to take the path of an artist and apply for the vocal music department of the university.
?However, his grades were worse than those of Deshan back then, so he repeated his studies for a year and was admitted to Qiuxi University of the Arts in 1992.
After graduation, with Xiang Nan''s support, his development in the entertainment industry was naturally much smoother than others.
Furthermore, Xiang Nan also wrote many good songs for him, such as "From the Beginning to Now", "Thousand Years of Love", "Love Song", "God''s Jealousy" and so on.
?The touching lyrical songs also made Yu Hui an instant hit in the South Korean music scene. Although he is ugly, he is very gentle, so he has gained the love of many fans.
…
In 1997, after three years of dating, Zhengfeng and Meiyu officially held their wedding.
By this time, Zhengfeng had already made a name for himself in the culinary world.
Not only has he participated in many cooking competitions and won awards, he has also been invited by the radio station to be the host of a food program.
?This also made him famous and became a host with a very high listening rate, no less than Li Wenshi of Night Star.
?Zhang Meiyu’s father originally didn’t like Zhengfeng very much, but now he sees that Zhengfeng’s career has improved. In addition, my daughter was really willing, so she had no choice but to let go.
In the same year, Baoyu, who had a successful career, also married a beautiful lady.
He met her through a blind date, and after a year of dating, they finally decided to get married.
…
In 1998, the Asian financial crisis broke out.
But for the explorers, the impact was not great. Because Xiang Nan had taken precautions early, when the stock price plummeted, it was a great opportunity for him to make money. Because short selling is allowed in South Korean stocks, the stock price plummeted, which was a great opportunity for Xiang Nan to make a fortune.
?Hence, despite the financial crisis, Explorers are still well-funded, and Xiang Nan’s net worth has risen instead of falling.
After the outbreak of the financial crisis, Xiang Nan also annexed a number of high-quality assets.
?For example, Hanil Bank was on the verge of bankruptcy due to the impact of the financial crisis, and was finally acquired by Newbridge Investment Institutions for US$500 million.
Five years later, Standard Chartered Bank acquired Hanil Bank for US$3.25 billion. Newbridge Investment made a huge profit of US$2.75 billion in one fell swoop, which can be said to be a huge fortune.
Xiang Nandu participated in the acquisition and made a real profit, which also made Dongri feel resentful.
…
After the outbreak of the Asian financial crisis in 1998, the group of people who went to college in 1994 coincided with the economic crisis after graduation, so it became extremely difficult to find a job.
Xiang Nan’s Explorer Company took this opportunity to recruit talents aggressively.
?Like the elites in the computer industry, they never had to worry about finding a job before. As soon as I graduate, I will be recruited by companies immediately, and they will all go to big companies such as Samsung, LG, Daewoo, and Hyundai.
For a small company like Explorer, it is difficult to recruit excellent talents. Therefore, Xiang Nan once wanted to set up an R&D center in the United States and use Silicon Valley talents to conduct R&D for the Explorers.
?It''s better now. Under the economic crisis, major companies have stopped social recruitment in an attempt to control capital and tide over the difficulties. Even giants like Daewoo, Hanil, and Koryo Securities are on the verge of bankruptcy.
?Those fresh graduates cannot find jobs at all. In this case, they naturally have a job to do and are not picky about the size of the company.
Because of this, Explorer Company has recruited a large number of talents, laying the foundation for the company''s rapid development.
It is worth mentioning that among them are Sung Na-jung, Kim Sung-jun, Zhao Yun-jin from "Reply 1994", etc.
???The three of them are all students majoring in computer science at Yonsei University. Originally, it was not a problem to find a job after being admitted to such a prestigious school. As a result, the financial crisis coincided with the financial crisis, which made it difficult for top students like them to choose a career.
It just so happened that their friend Jun Jun was a classmate of Shan Yu. I heard that Xiang Nan''s company was recruiting people, so I sent them over through my connections.
Xiang Nan has also watched "Reply 1994" before and knows that if he does not take in these three people, Najing will have to go to Australia in order to work; Zhao Runzhen will work in a travel agency, but without salary; Jin Chengjun will do odd jobs in a small company , responsible for photocopying documents and faxing... They are completely sorry for their status as top students of Yonsei University.
Furthermore, Najung went to Australia for two years and was forced to separate from Brother Junk, which postponed their wedding. The long-term separation between the two places also weakened the relationship between the two, which eventually led to their breakup.
So he happily accepted the three of them. This also allowed Sunwoo to gain enough face in front of Brother Junk.
?Sung Na Jung, Kim Sung Jun, and Zhao Runzhen shocked Deshan when they entered the company, because Kim Sung Jun looked so much like the younger version of President Kim.
?Sung Na-jung was also shocked when she saw Sung Dong-il, because her father''s name was also Sung Dong-il, and she looked exactly like him. She almost recognized the wrong person and thought her father had come to the company to look for her.
?After asking around later, I found out that her father, Cheng Dongri, and Deshan''s father, Dongri, were distant cousins ??from the same ancestry. This can be considered an unexpected surprise.
…
Because of the recruitment of a large number of talents, Explorer Company has grown rapidly.
In 1998, the number of users exceeded 10 million. In addition to serving users in South Korea, it also entered Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia and other countries and regions.
Therefore, in 1999, Explorer Company was officially listed on Nasdaq, and its market value reached one billion US dollars in one fell swoop. Such achievements have also made Xiang Nan and Deshan well-known business wizards in South Korea.
