254: Chapter 254: Recruiting 300 New Employees! Jiang Yan's Recommended Cosplayers!

Chapter 254: Recruiting Three Hundred New Employees! The Cosplayers Recommended by Jiang Yan!

Spark Media had indeed become famous for incubating internet celebrities some time ago, but its fame wasn't particularly massive!

This time, Spark Media not only used Jiang Ling to play the sympathy card, gaining public goodwill and deepening the impression of being a "conscientious" company, but it also marketed its ability to incubate influencers and the salary packages of its employees and signed influencers.

Hearing that Spark Media offered excellent salaries and benefits, relevant professionals—whether local or from out of town willing to move to Rongcheng—would naturally prioritize Spark Media, where the work was easier and the pay more generous!

The same logic applied to those internet celebrities!

Spark Media's powerful incubation capabilities, combined with that ten-thousand-yuan base salary, were enough to make countless self-media bloggers across the country flock to them!

Don't think that being an influencer or blogger is truly easy money.

This industry follows the 80/20 rule, where the winner takes all!

In self-media, being able to scrape together a living is already quite good; the vast majority of people are just doing it out of passion!

Whether it was outstanding professionals or high-potential influencers, they were all targets for Spark Media to scout!

Then there were the brand owners who took the initiative to contact Spark Media for online advertising!

These people are usually the "Client Fathers" who call the shots!

The fact that they came to the door on their own was enough to prove the success of this marketing campaign!

Of course, besides these talents and brand owners, Su Yang also believed that other MCNs had noticed Spark Media's signed influencers...

"Screen those self-recommended influencers first, and then I'll review them," Su Yang said after a moment's thought. "Also, Spark Media can indeed start recruiting now. I will be involved throughout the recruitment period."

Jiuxiang Catering didn't require too much of his attention for the time being, and the work implementation at Meijia Housekeeping was also proceeding in an orderly fashion.

Su Yang had the idea of bringing the number of full-time employees at Spark Media past the thousand mark.

Breaking the thousand-employee mark would not only boost the company's buffs but also bolster its strength and enhance its online promotion capabilities. Moreover, the timing was just about right now.

The company had abundant cash flow, the old employees were cohesive enough, the number of partner merchants was increasing, and its reputation was thoroughly established. He had to firmly seize the results of this marketing wave!

Currently, Spark Media had nearly five hundred full-time employees; breaking one thousand was not impossible!

"Alright, Boss!"

By now, Yu Siying had learned the boss's habits.

He rarely interfered in company operations, promotions, or the training of employees and influencers.

But he placed great importance on employee recruitment and often participated in person.

However, she had to admit that not a single person Su Yang recruited was subpar!

"Also, the company has become famous recently, so more people might set their sights on our signed influencers. Don't let go of those on the key list; for the others, if they should be sold, sell them directly!"

"Understood!"

Yu Siying was also mentally prepared for this!

Leaving Yu Siying's office, Su Yang couldn't help but smile when he saw the employees who had pulled an all-nighter yesterday but were still full of passion.

It was quite nice to be around a bunch of energetic young employees!

He felt that he should also work hard this month!

Working seriously also made him feel fulfilled.

Thus, using his authority as the boss, he suppressed the overly energetic youngsters like Xu Hao and Jiang Ling and drove them off to the staff dormitory to rest!

Their work was taken over by other employees who had already rested and returned to the office!

On that very day, Spark Media's official accounts also posted recruitment information on various major platforms.

Su Yang offered three hundred recruitment slots for regular employees.

This included assistants, floor managers, planners, customer service, and traffic specialists needed for livestream e-commerce.

It included photographers, editors, and directors/planners needed for video production.

As well as various operations, marketing, and talent management department staff!

It also included a small number of training teachers for dance, vocals, physique, and etiquette.

Additionally, Spark Media expressed a willingness to recruit a batch of signed influencers.

However, the recruitment for signed influencers was written more clearly this time: only those assessed as having excellent potential would be given the ten-thousand-yuan base salary.

The recruitment statement also directly mentioned that signing should be done with caution, as there would be quite high liquidated damages for breach of contract...

The hype around Spark Media was still there. The netizens who came to watch the excitement weren't surprised by the warning to prospective influencers; instead, they felt Spark Media was quite upfront!

Of course, many industry practitioners were shouting in the comments section about wanting to apply!

Su Yang found these comments very interesting, but seeing that many of those wanting to apply came from all corners of the country, he simply told Yu Siying to consider video recruitment!

That is, recruiting applicants through live video.

At least Su Yang felt this would be more convenient for the applicants!

For many people, traveling across provinces to apply would indeed be a heavy burden!

What if they weren't hired? How would those travel expenses be accounted for?

Of course, Su Yang also knew some netizens were just talking big and couldn't be taken seriously.

But what if someone was truly willing to come?

Moreover, this also made it easier for Su Yang to scout talent from all over the country!

If someone truly had outstanding abilities, he certainly wouldn't mind paying a bit more.

After considering it for a moment, Yu Siying followed Su Yang's suggestion!

When it was almost time to get off work, Jiang Yan knocked on the door of Su Yang's office.

"Boss!"

"Come in!" Su Yang asked with a smile, "Is something the matter?"

Jiang Yan rarely came to his office.

"Boss, isn't the company recruiting new people lately?"

"Yes!"

"Can I recommend some friends?"

Those friends had taken the initiative to contact Jiang Yan this time, and it was hard for her to refuse.

Jiang Yan hadn't been a professional cosplayer before, but after becoming famous as one and attending many Comic-cons, she had met many peers and joined several professional cosplayer groups.

Because she had a large following, those cosplayers tended to flatter her, and she had become an admin for two thousand-person groups.

In these large groups, cosplayer gigs would be introduced from time to time!

Besides that, she had also created her own group, pulling in a few friends she got along with to be the group leader herself!

"Who is it?"

"Maybe a few dozen cosplayers!" Jiang Yan smiled somewhat bashfully. "Isn't our Spark Media very famous lately? People in the group were asking me..."

"They want to use connections?"

"They might have that idea!" Jiang Yan said quickly. "But I didn't promise anything; I just said I could ask the company."

"It's good to say it that way; don't make promises lightly!"

Su Yang nodded in satisfaction.

This girl had also grown a lot over the past six months or so.

The company was still quite short on cosplayers; Jiang Yan was the only one he had personally signed.

Nowadays, professional cosplayers with a certain fan base could make quite a lot of money!

From attending anime and game conventions to promoting game figurines and various cosmetics through commercial activities, as well as livestream tips and other peripheral income.

However, many cosplayers were also purely doing it for love.

Not only did they have to prepare their own costumes and props, but they even had to buy their own tickets to attend conventions.

He didn't mind signing and training some more professional cosplayers. There were many Comic-cons of all sizes across the country now; when the time came, Spark Media might even be able to provide package services for convention and game exhibition organizers!

But these cosplayers would definitely have to be carefully selected.

After all, the reputation of the cosplayer circle wasn't great; he would definitely have to pick some who were relatively clean!

Otherwise, it would be a problem if a scandal broke out halfway through their training!

He could predict which cosplayers had the potential for a million followers within a year.

For those who wouldn't reach a million followers, he could only look at their moral attributes!

Jiang Yan asked softly, "Then Boss, how should I reply to them?"

"Just say that because of your recommendation, the company will hold a special interview for them. The company boss will personally participate, so tell them to be prepared and cherish this opportunity!"

"Wouldn't that be bad?"

Jiang Yan was a bit afraid of causing trouble for the company and the boss.

Su Yang laughed. "You're the company's top star; of course I have to give you some face!"

Of course, this was all just talk!

Saying he was holding a special interview for them was actually just making a little time to go through the motions.

As for him appearing in person... as long as it was an interview, he generally wouldn't miss it!

Hearing Su Yang say this, Jiang Yan was also very happy. "Thank you, Boss!"
