Chapter 1929 - 1923: Money-Making Venture
"President Qi, you go ahead, I’m listening."
"Alright." President Qi straightforwardly said, "President Wang, you probably noticed as you came in just now, our company’s streamers and staff members are very motivated, and besides, the money-making speed is quite fast."
"The daily revenue is at least in the tens of millions, the business is huge."
"Honestly, making this money by myself is quite good, but the company is growing bigger and bigger, and now such a large venue just can’t accommodate it."
"So recently, I’ve had thoughts of expansion and that’s why I want to cooperate with others, otherwise on usual days, my company wouldn’t allow anyone to buy shares."
President Qi spoke confidently.
And judging from the current situation, he indeed had the grounds to say this.
Just now, Chen Yang and Wang Jingman saw the situation outside, and Liu Qingqing also introduced the achievement of this media company to Wang Jingman multiple times.
So from the current viewpoint, this company is indeed very powerful and lucrative.
"Haha, I could see that, President Qi, noticed it when passing by earlier." Wang Jingman nodded with a smile, responding.
"Hmm, since you understand this, I won’t say much more, let’s just proceed to discussing conditions." President Qi shifted the topic once more, directly discussing partnership conditions.
This is actually the most important, so everyone was quite concerned about it.
"The conditions to buy shares aren’t difficult, I’ve estimated that if we want to start making money right after opening, we must recruit some top streamers, and the switching fee is a substantial cost. Conservatively estimated, it requires an investment of at least one billion."
"If the three of us share the investment evenly, it would be thirty million each."
"President Wang, if you have a genuine interest in partnering, first come up with thirty million, then we can discuss details. What do you think?"
President Qi suddenly demanded money, causing Wang Jingman to pause slightly before responding.
"Ah, thirty million right off the bat? How about we first look into it, besides I haven’t seen any contract yet, President Qi." Wang Jingman said.
"Jingman, strike while the iron is hot! This business looks excellent. What’s the current era? The era of the internet, you can’t miss this early opportunity, otherwise you’ll regret it later." Seeing Wang Jingman hesitate, Liu Qingqing immediately urged from the side.
She seemed quite emotional over this deal, eagerly wanting to invest right away.
Though Wang Jingman also highly regarded this matter, she had extensive commercial experience, understanding the principle that haste makes waste.
No matter how promising the project is, it’s crucial to understand it thoroughly first.
"Qingqing, I’m not saying I won’t invest. President Qi agreeing to talk to us here shows he intends to collaborate, and our presence indicates we’re keen on cooperation. I’m just unfamiliar with the internet and wish to explore it further to understand the cooperation model for a more informed decision, since the amount isn’t small, it’s necessary to be clear, right, President Qi?" Wang Jingman calmly smiled and answered.
President Qi’s expression showed a flash of surprise but was well concealed, unnoticed without careful attention.
His face always retained that smile.
"Haha, President Wang’s perspective is spot-on; business isn’t something to be rashly done. Since President Wang is unfamiliar, let me explain the model again and discuss the contract." President Qi agreed with a smile, and then proceeded to systematically and meticulously introduce things to Wang Jingman again.
From the company’s operational model to daily working hours, even the trivial matters were elaborated thoroughly.
"President Wang, our company in this era is almost a foolproof profitable business; as long as you’re willing to invest, you just wait to rake in the profits, definitely no problems." President Qi smilingly concluded.
After listening to the partnership and operational models, Wang Jingman also nodded, relatively satisfied with the project.
Not only her, but Chen Yang was also quite content with this matter.
He indeed felt it could make money.
"Jingman, I told you, this project you can rest assured, as sisters we’re not here to deceive you, besides I’m investing myself, no issues would arise, we’ll just wait for the profits." Liu Qingqing laughed and said from the side.
Wang Jingman smiled and nodded, seeming to agree.
"Chen Yang, what’s your take?" However, she wanted to hear Chen Yang’s opinion first.
"The project indeed looks good, can collaborate, first review the contract, if no issues, it can be considered." Chen Yang said.
President Qi and Liu Qingqing were always attentive towards Chen Yang and hearing his words, nodded and agreed with a smile.
"Haha, President Chen’s assessment is accurate, let’s review the contract, if no problems, we can sign today, as my company urgently needs expansion, I can’t help it, otherwise I wouldn’t be hastily seeking a partnership." President Qi cheerfully smiled and promptly drew from the coffee table drawer the pre-prepared contracts.
Studiously issuing one to each person.
Receiving it, Wang Jingman immediately began reviewing seriously, while Chen Yang lacked the enthusiasm to read.
Because he believed Wang Jingman reviewing alone was sufficient, being meticulous, no issues would arise.
He put down the contract, expressing slight resentment towards President Qi and Liu Qingqing saying he needs to use the washroom, then left the office first.
Not genuinely requiring the restroom, the prior impressions from Liu Qingqing left him uneasy.
So he deliberately acted so, wanting to check before formally signing.
Though President Qi spoke compellingly, being cautious is always prudent, as the saying goes, safety lasts for millennia.
Leaving the office, Chen Yang immediately proceeded to check the streaming host and marketing zone, then wandered around the entire company.
Discovering the company genuinely as President Qi said, everything appeared normal.
Individuals in every section were busily engaged, energetically marketing and broadcasting live.
And all their data was relatively positive, belonging to the profitable kind.
"Could it be I’m overthinking?"
Confirming the company had no issues, Chen Yang intended to return to the office, considering he’d been outside quite a while.
Yet on the way back, encountering the restroom, Chen Yang decided to resolve his needs.
As he was washing hands at the sink, he suddenly heard soft murmurs from the adjacent women’s restroom, discussing the company.
"Do you think the salary will be paid tomorrow? President Qi has delayed my wages for three months; if it’s not paid, how can one survive?"
"Aren’t we all in the same boat? I’m barely surviving too."
The speakers were two women, seemingly streamers from the company.
Hearing their words, Chen Yang was quite stunned.
How can a company with live stream revenues of tens of millions can’t afford salary payments? 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
So exaggerated?
"Ah, don’t worry, last time President Qi stated an investor is coming to invest, definitely there’ll be money for our salaries tomorrow."
"Hah, is this crappy company actually getting investments? Even with investment, in a few months it’ll still fail to pay salaries."
"Why bother so much, didn’t we agree to leave after payday, whether they pay or not doesn’t matter by then."
"Hehe, right."
"Alright, stop talking, need to go out and act, clearly without achievements, yet have to pretend, it’s really tiring."
The two women exchanged a few remarks, followed by the sound of footsteps indicating they’d left.
