Chapter 14 Ready
An hour later, Zhang Feng had read all the newspapers three times. He felt that the time difference was not much. It would be bad if Gertari Garbo woke up and saw it.

Zhang Feng held Qin Qingning's little head tightly and didn't let go until a minute later. Qin Qingning knelt on the floor, breathing in fresh air desperately, and put his hand on his chin.

"Swallow it. This is good stuff. It can beautify your skin." Zhang Feng saw her actions and scolded her in a serious tone.

Qin Qingning looked at Zhang Feng, not daring to disobey his order. She tilted her head back and swallowed several big mouthfuls. Only then did Zhang Feng hand her a piece of toilet paper. Qin Qingning took it and wiped her mouth.

"You continue to mop the floor. I'll go see if Garbo has slept well." After saying that, Zhang Feng walked into the bedroom, saw Getelli Garbo's sleeping face, bent down and kissed her, then lay down beside her to take a nap.

Another day, Zhang Feng went out early in the morning and found Lawrence Kate and Bob Ford, the two professors who were invited by Howard Hughes to help develop nylon fibers last time. Fortunately, Zhang Feng knew that these connections would be useful in the future, so he left their contact addresses.

Because the last cooperation was very pleasant, Zhang Feng easily reached an agreement with the two professors. The two professors would be the inventors of sulfa drugs, and Zhang Feng would be the investor. The professors would get fame and Zhang Feng would get profits. After signing the contract, Zhang Feng began to tell the two professors about his "parents'" research results.

According to Zhang Feng's account, his parents accidentally discovered a red dye while working in the laboratory. He injected it into infected mice and it killed the bacteria, namely streptococci. This red dye is Prontosil. After many studies, it was found that Prontosil can decompose the sulfonamide gene in the body - para-aminobenzenesulfonamide. This substance is similar in chemical structure to para-aminoformic acid required for bacterial growth and reproduction, and can interfere with the bacterial growth process.

However, his parents died in an accident before he could publish the paper or apply for a patent, so now the two professors are needed to repeat the experiment, extract para-aminobenzenesulfonamide, and then guide his pharmaceutical company to carry out industrial production.

In addition to providing research funding, Zhang Feng will also give them a sum of money after the completion of the project. They will also publish the paper, and Zhang Feng will be the third author. Because Zhang Feng will serve as their assistant, provide them with theoretical help, and supervise them to ensure that there will be no accidents. They thought that this was another collaboration with Howard Hughes.

In the next few days, Zhang Feng drove to the laboratory every day to do experiments with the professors. Zhang Feng was mainly responsible for the early theories, and he knew nothing about experimental research.

It was another Saturday, and Zhang Feng came to the three offices he rented on the sixth floor of the Rice Insurance Building. The current offices did not require any decoration, and he only needed to buy some office supplies and could use them directly. However, Zhang Feng was too lazy to do these things. He decided to wait until he recruited people and let the employees do the work, otherwise why would he recruit them.

As soon as he walked into the corridor on the 8th floor, he saw that it was already full of people. After all, the positions he was recruiting were all at the executive level, and the salary and benefits could be imagined, so there were still many people who wanted to try their luck.

"I think you all came here because you saw the job ad in the Los Angeles Times. I am the person in charge. Wait a moment, I will open the door first, and then you can come in one by one for the interview in order." Zhang Feng said lightly.

These job seekers recognized Zhang Feng as soon as they saw him. After all, in addition to appearing on movie screens, Zhang Feng also frequently appeared in major newspapers during this period. So even though he was a Chinese, no one was disgusted by him (I will not explain too much in the future, just try to be reasonable, and I hope everyone understands).

After a morning of interviews, Zhang Feng accepted five of them on the spot.

James: I used to be a department manager in McDonald's. Zhang Feng put him in charge of the development of KFC and promised that as long as he didn't make any mistakes, he could be promoted from a store manager to the general manager of the entire company. How high a position he could get depended on his ability. Zhang Feng would provide the necessary financial support. The pie was big enough and no one could resist it, unless he admitted that he was not capable.

Sharlock: He is now a middle-level manager in a pharmaceutical company and is preparing to switch jobs here. Zhang Feng asked him to be the head of Shennong Pharmaceutical Company, which is the name Zhang Feng gave to the pharmaceutical company.

Paulson: He worked in several securities companies before. Now his family has moved to Los Angeles and he is looking for a job. Zhang Feng asked him to be in charge of his own investment company - Maple Leaf Investment Co., Ltd.
The other two are Charlie and Susan, who are financial accountants and are responsible for the finances of the three companies.

In addition, Zhang Feng still kept a few people he thought were pretty good. As the company was newly established, Zhang Feng thought it would be better for him to recruit a few more people himself, and let the general managers of each company recruit the rest. This way he would feel more at ease. Otherwise, if all the company's employees were recruited by the general managers, it would still not be safe enough.

After the interview, Zhang Feng asked the others to leave first and left five key employees to hold a meeting.

"James, you and I will go to the first KFC flagship store later. You will work as a store manager in the store for a while and get familiar with KFC's dishes, corporate culture, etc. Give me a development plan in a week. If I am satisfied, you can become a regular employee." Zhang Feng said to James.

"Okay, boss, I'll let you know that you made the right choice by choosing me." James said confidently.

"I am looking forward to your performance. So, Sharlock, your assessment goal is to select a piece of land and build a pharmaceutical factory within one month. Of course, time may be a bit tight, so you can also choose to acquire a pharmaceutical factory." After Zhang Feng met with James, he said to Sharlock.

"No problem, boss, I will check around first before making a decision." Sharrock replied immediately. "Paulson, your task is, I will give you a list of several companies later, you need to collect the information of these companies first, and report to me after sorting it out. The information you collect must be thorough." Zhang Feng said to Paulson.

"Boss, don't worry, I will finish it as quickly as possible." Paulson assured.

"Charlie and Susan, you two will go to the bank with me later to open a company account. I will then transfer the money into the company account. Any subsequent use of money by the three of them that exceeds $1000 will need my approval. For less than $1000, you can just transfer the money directly. However, you must keep good account records and report to me once a month. Do you understand?" Zhang Feng instructed the two financial officers.

"Understood, Boss." Charlie and Susan responded in unison.

"Okay, that's all for today. If the companies you are in charge of are short of people, you should recruit them yourselves. Please purchase the company's office supplies as soon as possible. You will officially start work tomorrow. The company's keys will be given to you three managers for safekeeping. Charlie, Susan, and James, the three of you follow me." After Zhang Feng finished speaking, he took out three keys and handed them to the three people, then took the lead to leave the office.

After arriving downstairs, Zhang Feng opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat. Then the three of them got in the car and soon arrived at the KFC store.

Zhang Feng brought James into the store. It was lunch time and there were many people in the store. The two of them finally squeezed behind the counter. The three waiters and cashiers saw the boss coming and came over to say hello.

Zhang Feng asked them to continue working and only called Delis to the storage room and introduced her: "Delis, this is my newly hired KFC manager James. Our store will soon open a chain store. He will be in charge of all matters. He will be here to familiarize himself with the store operations of KFC and then replicate them to other stores. You will assist him in the next few days and work hard. When the company grows in size in the future, you can also take on a management position and get a promotion and a raise."

The capitalist hadn't been in business for long when Zhang Feng had already become so skilled in making rosy promises that he could just open his mouth. It was true that the head is determined by the butt, and people have a strong ability to adapt.

"Okay, boss. I'll do my best." Delis promised excitedly.

"Okay, I'm leaving first. You two should cooperate and ask the kitchen to prepare four sets of meals and send them to the storage room."

Delis hurried to the kitchen to ask someone to prepare food. Zhang Feng also went outside the store to call Charlie and Susan to the storage room. After the meal was delivered, the four of them finished eating quickly.

It was almost noon, and Zhang Feng was not a stingy boss, so he could still provide us with a lunch.

After leaving KFC, Zhang Feng drove with two newly appointed financial managers to the largest bank nearby - Morgan Bank.

Zhang Feng's personal account was also opened in this company. It took another afternoon for the three of them to set up the company's account. Zhang Feng also transferred part of the start-up capital into each of the three accounts, but it was not much. Now he had just received dividends from movies and stockings, and he could continue after this month's dividends came in.

After letting the two go home, Zhang Feng also returned to the apartment. He had basically completed three of the four things. The only thing left was to rent a bigger house. But it was not urgent. In his expectation, he would wait until Qin Qingning became pregnant before moving, and then hire a few more nannies to take care of them and the future children. Well, bodyguards were also necessary. It would not be long before he became a small rich man, and his life was more important.

After returning home and eating the meal made by Qin Qingning, he hugged Getali Jiabao and fell asleep.

In the next few days, Zhang Feng went to the laboratory every day to supervise the progress of the two professors. This would be his next most profitable project, and he had no choice but to pay attention to it.

During this period, he also visited the real estate agency that rented the current apartment and asked them to check if there were any large houses or small manors for rent.

Time passed day by day, and the three previous company managers all passed his task assessment, and the launch of these projects was also waiting for the start.

It just so happens that the day has come for the movies and stockings to share their dividends again.
