"What, you want to poach me to work at your new company? As far as I know, your new company still only has you as a lone commander, right?"
Lin Qifen quickly realized that Jinyi Industrial had a considerable registered capital and a wide business scope, so hiring full-time financial personnel was only a matter of time.
Lin Qifen knew this perfectly well.
"If Sister Lin comes, then I won't be a lone commander anymore."
Lin Qifen is 39 years old.
For the past six months, she has been doing financial management for Jinpeng Trading.
She is very meticulous and has excellent professional qualities, never showing any negligence just because it was a part-time job or a small company.
Her professional ethics are impeccable.
In the 2000s, and even up to 2023, there were many financial professionals like Lin Qifen.
Whether due to family or other reasons, they chose to work at a small company with less busy work and a more relaxed environment to pay social insurance.
Normally, they would take on part-time financial work for one or more small companies, earning a decent income with considerable freedom, allowing them enough time for themselves and their families, while also having little workplace pressure.
Lin Qifen is exactly like this.
She usually needs to take care of her child, so she chose a small company to be a full-time financial employee with a monthly salary of 3500.
She also takes on financial work for companies like Jinpeng Trading, which takes up a maximum of one or two days a week.
She can manage it completely.
All in all, she earns around seven or eight thousand yuan a month.
This income is decent, easy, stress-free, and allows her to care for her family, which is much better than competing in those big companies.
"If I come to your company, will I still be able to do part-time work then?"
Lin Qifen asked, smiling at Tan Jincheng, not directly refusing.
"Of course, you can. As long as it doesn't affect your work, that's your right. And if you come, Jinpeng Trading's finances will still be handled by you."
"Regarding benefits, you know about social insurance. I don't deduct it from employees at Jinpeng Trading, and it will be the same at Jinyi Industrial. As for salary, I'll increase it by a full 1000 yuan on top of your current amount. This is the starting salary; how about we follow the company's articles of association from now on?"
Tan Jincheng finished speaking in one breath, then picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
Zhang Xupeng, beside him, watched Tan Jincheng's poaching operation with great interest, considering it a live lesson.
Lin Qifen just smiled and said nothing.
At her age, with a stable family, though not extremely wealthy, she wasn't short on money.
A simple salary increase would no longer truly entice her to switch jobs.
Tan Jincheng naturally knew this, but for now, besides a salary increase, there wasn't any other way to attract an excellent financial professional.
Lin Qifen's resume was still excellent.
She graduated from a prestigious university and had experience working for large companies when she was young.
After marriage and having a child, she chose to casually find a small company to make ends meet and take care of her family.
If she could be poached, it would be a good choice for Jinyi Industrial at its current stage.
Seeing Lin Qifen just smile and say nothing, Tan Jincheng appropriately ended the topic:
"Sister Lin, you don't have to reply now. Formal onboarding at the new company will be around the end of June at the earliest, so you have two months. I hope you can consider it."
Since Boss Tan said so, Lin Qifen found it hard to directly refuse:
"Alright then, I'll go back and think about it, and discuss it with my family too."
Although surprised by the speed at which Tan Jincheng and the other person earned money, they were, after all, too young.
As a financial professional in her middle age, with stability as her top priority, Lin Qifen naturally wouldn't be impulsive like a young person and be easily swayed by Tan Jincheng.
It has potential, yes, but she needed to observe more.
She would talk about it again in two months.
Tan Jincheng was also not in a hurry.
For a startup, the initial financial structure is relatively simple.
If a suitable candidate couldn't be found, continuing to outsource wouldn't be a problem.
Generally, for startups, things like business registration, some HR, finance, legal affairs, and even office space can be outsourced, which can save a lot of costs.
"Well, that's all for today then. We'll be going now. Goodbye, Sister Lin."
Tan Jincheng stood up and said.
The matters were discussed, everything that needed to be said was said, it was time to leave.
Lin Qifen also stood up and said:
"Okay, I will sort out your dividend tax rate issue as soon as possible next week, hoping to get it cleared quickly."
"Okay, goodbye, Sister Lin."
"Goodbye, Sister Lin."
Zhang Xupeng awkwardly followed suit, shouting.
Although Zhang Xupeng didn't say much during this visit, for most of the time, Lin Qifen and Tan Jincheng were explaining financial situations and some tax policies to him.
This was to give him a comprehensive understanding of Jinpeng Trading's actual financial operations, as Tan Jincheng had been responsible for this area before.
Although Zhang Xupeng had a general idea, he wasn't very clear on many of the details.
"Goodbye."
Watching the two drive away, Lin Qifen also packed her things, ready to go back.

"Why are you driving the Passat again? Where's your BMW?"
On Saturday morning, Zhang Haiping, having nothing to do, went with Zhang Mingcan to accompany Tan Jincheng to look at a factory building.
Seeing Tan Jincheng driving the old Passat again, he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"I swapped with Xiao Zhang; Brother Ming, this factory building is quite good. Why are they thinking of subletting it?"
After the three of them looked around, they found the factory building to be over 1000 square meters, with an office building, a guardhouse, and complete water and electricity facilities.
It looked vibrant in every way, and Tan Jincheng was a bit confused why it was being sublet.
"It's good, right? This one is about 1200 square meters, and transportation is quite convenient. To be honest, if it were sublet a few years later, I'd want to move in myself."
Zhang Mingcan was very pleased with the 'Brother Ming' address and replied with a smile.
"As for why it's being sublet, the boss got rich, bought a factory building elsewhere, so he's looking to sublet this one."
"Then hurry up! The previous boss got rich, which means the feng shui here is good. Xiao Tan can take it."
Zhang Haiping was actually a bit envious, but he couldn't afford to rent such a factory building, nor did he need such a large area.
"Haha, that makes sense; the previous boss got rich, which means the feng shui here is good. Maybe I'll also get rich after moving in."
"That's the logic. What do you think? Like it? Just get some equipment in and you can start working. As for equipment, I'll help you make some contacts then to see if we can find good deals, and if not, I'll also find you some discounted new equipment. Your brother still has some connections in this area."
Zhang Mingcan's enthusiasm was also for a reason.
He had already inquired about Tan Jincheng's past and learned from Zhang Haiping and other connections that Jinpeng Trading had a good harvest at the Canton Fair this time.
This kid in front of him currently had a net worth of at least ten million yuan.
He wanted to build a complete electric vehicle factory, which would undoubtedly require many molds.
If he built a good relationship with him now, he could secure the mold business later.
Not only did he have to help him build the factory, but he had to do it as quickly as possible.
Then, relying on this favor, the first batch of electric vehicle plastic molds should definitely go to him, right?
Before renting the factory, Tan Jincheng had already mentioned that the first production line would produce at least 100 complete vehicles daily, so mold orders wouldn't be few.
In addition, some orders for plastic products could also be taken, as the injection molding machines in his own factory couldn't always be idle.
"Okay, this factory building is good. What about the rent?"
Tan Jincheng nodded and said.
The area was suitable, facilities complete, and the three-story office building looked quite imposing.
He could even put his registered Taobao stores in the office building then.
Those stores, after being designed, hadn't really stocked much yet.
He could set up a space in the office building, and additionally rent a residential house nearby as a warehouse, hire a few employees, and the Taobao stores could start operating.
"180,000 a year. The original boss's remaining rent term is until the end of this year, less than 7 months. This boss is also a friend of mine. If you sign now, I'll give it to you for 85,000, but you need to pay the full amount in cash at once, and a formal invoice can be issued to you."
"For next year's rent, you'll rent directly from the boss, but it's agreed that it will be the same price, no increase. If you sign for two years or more, you can discuss the price increase method yourselves."
Zhang Mingcan truly put his heart and soul into it.
Tan Jincheng only thought for a moment before directly agreeing.
A rent of 180,000 yuan a year was a bit expensive for 2005, but compared to the no-increase policy for next year, it wasn't expensive.
As for this year's rent needing to be paid in full, that was not an issue.
He would have the money next week, and with a discount of nearly ten thousand yuan, it was only fair to allow the other party to make some requests.
"No problem, Brother Ming, please help contact this boss and the landlord, see when they are available. I'll host, bring my documents, and we can all get together to sign the contract. In a couple of days, I have some business to attend to in Xiangjiang."
"Easy peasy, you young people really get things done quickly."
"I admire Xiao Tan for this; he's very straightforward in business. Once the order price is agreed upon, no nonsense, just sign the contract and make the payment."
"Not at all, isn't that how it should be? Everyone makes money."
Zhang Mingcan made two phone calls; they agreed to have their materials ready by noon tomorrow.
A young man and two middle-aged men thus decided the future ownership of this 1200 square meter factory building.
As he turned to leave, Tan Jincheng looked back at the emptied factory area, an uncontrollable excitement surging within him.
In two lifetimes, this was the first time he owned such a large factory building.
He had become a factory boss!
There's no need to elaborate on the signing process the next day.
Tan Jincheng not only brought Zhang Xupeng but also a lawyer.
After confirming that all procedures were correct, he obtained a transfer agreement and a formal lease contract.
The five-year lease contract signed with the landlord stipulated no price increase for the first year, which was 2006, calculated at 180,000 yuan per year.
Thereafter, the annual rent would increase by 5% each year.
If either party wished to terminate the contract, they needed to give one year's prior notice, otherwise, a penalty would be incurred.
Once formally registered and payment made on the next workday, this factory building would completely belong to Tan Jincheng for the next five years.
May 9, 2005, the second day of the fourth month in the Yiyou year of the lunar calendar.
A company named "Shanchi Automotive Co., Ltd." began its registration process with the help of a professional company registration agent.
Additionally, trademarks such as Shanchi, Fengchi, etc., also began their registration process under the management of a professional trademark registration agency.
