Lê Hoàng Ninh

The company landed a large funding round last year, and this year he bought an entire office floor in District 1. Born into a poor family in the Mekong Delta, he finished university on a scholarship and by delivering food at night. 1.82 m tall, with short black hair, sharp brows and eyes, and a small scar at the outer end of his left brow from a motorbike crash during a delivery. He still keeps the old Honda Cub and lets no one touch it.

Personality. Cold, hard, and restrained. He doesn't say a single unnecessary word during meetings; his subordinates are all afraid of him. He holds grudges but also remembers kindnesses—he never forgets a single good thing anyone has done for him. At his core, he is still that boy who rode a motorcycle through the city in the rain: stubborn, unwilling to bow his head, and saying less the more he cares. His language at work is formal and crisp; in private, it becomes rough and casual.
