Chapter 263: Spark Media's Core Competitiveness Isn't Influencers! Dongcheng Real Estate!
"Pretty girls? I'll pass on that!"
Tian Hanxiong had become somewhat desensitized to pretty girls.
Su Yang tilted his head and asked, "Do you prefer someone hardworking and frugal who can manage a household?"
"I guess so!" Tian Hanxiong nodded. "I don't like the type who wants to control everything. A lot of local girls are a bit... you know what I mean!"
Su Yang casually sent Tian Hanxiong an electronic form. "Then fill this out. I'll find someone to help arrange it for you when the time comes."
"Alright!"
Tian Hanxiong couldn't really refuse Su Yang's kindness, especially since it didn't cost anything.
When he arrived at Chen Li's place, Su Yang had dinner and saw that Tian Hanxiong had already filled out the matchmaking information form and sent it to his wechat.
Su Yang took a quick look and felt that Tian Hanxiong was a decent catch, with an annual salary of over three hundred thousand.
"What are you looking at?" Chen Li sat down beside Su Yang and glanced at the form. Her eyes were immediately glued to it. "Tian Hanxiong's profile?"
"I'm going to introduce him to a girlfriend!"
Chen Li couldn't help but laugh. "You're even managing this now?"
"Meijia Housekeeping will be launching matchmaking services soon!"
"A shady matchmaking agency?"
"Don't think like that!" Su Yang laughed as well. "I'm not that cold-hearted!"
Su Yang would support whatever domestic service business Meijia wanted to pursue.
Wouldn't adding a matchmaking service also allow them to hire more employees?
If there was truly no business, he could just introduce partners to internal company employees who wanted to get married!
"Pick someone good for Tian Hanxiong!" Chen Li said after thinking for a moment. "Try picking a female college student from out of town who just graduated!"
"Why not pick someone his own age?"
Chen Li smiled. "People the same age are too difficult to deal with!"
Su Yang opened the employee panel. He first excluded employees with a sense of belonging to the company below eighty, then filtered for female employees, then for unmarried female employees... and finally locked onto those with a bachelor's degree or higher.
He quickly narrowed it down to nearly two hundred young women!
These girls included fitness coaches, self-media bloggers, low-level management, and regular employees.
Among them, a large group was concentrated in the finance and self-media blogger departments!
The resources were very... abundant!
Su Yang was willing to help introduce a partner to Tian Hanxiong for his own reasons, of course.
He quite appreciated Tian Hanxiong; the man had ability and connections!
His position was also quite useful, so Su Yang wanted to win him over!
However, this person was quite principled, so Su Yang prepared to take a different route!
He wasn't trying to do anything untoward; he just wanted to expand some information channels.
His foundation was still too shallow!
Moreover, he felt Tian Hanxiong wasn't bad. If he was willing to cooperate with him long-term, he certainly wouldn't lack business... and if one of his female employees actually married Tian Hanxiong, she wouldn't be mistreated!
Of course, he wouldn't step forward personally for this; Meijia Housekeeping had to be the one to do it!
A boss introducing a partner to an employee would put a lot of pressure on them.
As for whether the two parties would be compatible, Su Yang felt there would be no problem.
Because he had long since used Business Deduction, he would be able to see their compatibility score!
If he bought the vocational college... it would actually increase certain functions of the system!
The next day, Yu Siying told Tao Zhiduo that if he paid the full liquidated damages, the company would be willing to let him go.
Su Yang also met with Tao Zhiduo, who felt quite guilty.
However, Su Yang spoke up to comfort him: "Tao Zhiduo, you should develop well after going home. If any of my companies have promotion business and reach out to you, you must give me a discount!"
Perhaps because he had experienced too many similar things, Su Yang was quite calm.
Without Tao Zhiduo, he would just train another one.
Tao Zhiduo said, "Okay, I'll definitely give you a discount, Boss! I can even do it for free!"
Subsequently, Spark Media's negotiations with Wenling Media also went very smoothly.
Seven million in liquidated damages was very promptly transferred to Spark Media's account, and Spark Media also handed over Tao Zhiduo's accounts on various platforms to the other party.
Learning that Tao Zhiduo was leaving, Gong Zihao was the first to come to Su Yang's office.
"Boss, are you okay?"
"I'm fine!"
"That dog Tao Zhiduo..."
"Stop it!" Su Yang interrupted Gong Zihao. "Job hopping is normal behavior. No one can work at one company until they're old..."
Gong Zihao hurriedly said, "Boss, I can work at Spark Media until I die!"
Seeing Gong Zihao's loyalty over 95, Su Yang asked with a smile, "What if I don't pay you?"
"Uh..."
Gong Zihao was stunned.
"Go back to work!"
"Oh!"
Next, several other signed influencers who were at the company and relatively close to Su Yang came to comfort him, but they were all talked down by Su Yang.
Walking out of Su Yang's office, Xia Jingshu whispered to Duan Hongyu, "The boss seems very calm. I thought he would be very upset!"
Duan Hongyu touched the stubble on his lip and smiled. "It's mainly because our company is different from other MCNs!"
Xia Jingshu asked in confusion, "How is it different?"
"Our company is very good at incubating influencers! Many other MCN agencies only have one or a few pillars, but our company's signed influencers show a multi-polarized trend. Even Jiang Yan can't really surpass the other signed influencers by too much. Tao Zhiduo leaving actually doesn't have much impact on the company!"
Duan Hongyu continued to explain, "Our company's core competitiveness is actually the boss's good eye and a large group of very professional employees. If one Tao Zhiduo leaves, we just train another... don't forget the boss also signed someone for digital reviews; he's just not very noticeable right now!"
Xia Jingshu sighed, "The boss is so strong!"
"Indeed!"
Duan Hongyu absolutely acknowledged this.
Having knocked about in society for many years, Duan Hongyu had seen many bosses.
But Su Yang was definitely the most special one!
Xia Jingshu asked quietly, "Are you going to leave?"
Duan Hongyu shook his head. "I quite like it here... what about you?"
Xia Jingshu smiled. "I like the pace here!"
"Oh~ wait, where are you going?" Duan Hongyu asked in confusion. "The office isn't that way!"
"I'm getting off work!"
Duan Hongyu glanced at his phone. Three-thirty!
Is this woman... too idle?
Should he ask the boss to give her more responsibilities?
For example, making her responsible for a team like him and Li Xiang?
When it was time to get off work, Su Yang received a call from He Zhiheng, saying that he had settled the relatives on both sides of Su Yang's parents and would be rushing back in the afternoon.
"You're not staying for a few more days?"
Su Yang asked in confusion.
"I don't want to stay at home..."
"Alright!" Su Yang thought for a moment and asked, "Have you told your mom about you being in a relationship?"
"Not yet! Don't say anything either, Cousin. If you do, my mom will probably put pressure on me!" He Zhiheng said in a low voice. "I don't know why, but every time I see my mom, I can't quite control my emotions..."
"Alright!" Su Yang thought for a moment and said, "But don't leave for now, stay for two more days!"
"What's wrong?"
"My parents want to go on a trip. I'll send a few trustworthy people to take them out!"
"Okay!" He Zhiheng agreed. "Then I won't leave yet."
After hanging up He Zhiheng's call, Su Yang received successive calls from the relatives on his father's side.
When he got a call from his older cousin, Su Yang said he knew it wasn't easy for him and that these shares were a tribute to the elders, and also to help lighten his burden.
His cousin also told him many things, and as they talked, his cousin's voice became somewhat choked with emotion.
When he received a call from his youngest aunt, she was still a bit embarrassed.
Su Yang persuaded her to relax, saying that everyone had them, so she couldn't be left out!
Then his aunt's voice also carried a bit of a sob...
Su Yang roughly knew why his aunt was like this, but that was all from the previous generation.
It wasn't his place to say anything!
Leaving Spark Media, Su Yang asked Feng Hua about the preparations for his parents' trip.
"Zhuang Kaiping, Chen Zheng, and the others are all ready!" Feng Hua said in a low voice. "The tour guide and the RV are too!"
Zhuang Kaiping and Chen Zheng were both old comrades of Feng Hua, and both were married.
When Su Yang was hiring employees on a large scale, Feng Hua had recommended seven former comrades to join Jiuxiang Food, responsible for factory security.
Su Yang had specifically named Zhuang Kaiping and Chen Zheng at the time, mainly because their sense of belonging to the company had reached 90, and their character was quite good.
For this "business trip," they would take leave from Jiuxiang Food, and Su Yang would personally bear the costs!
"Then have them go over tomorrow!" Su Yang said after thinking for a moment. "Contact He Zhiheng; I'll send his number to you!"
"Got it!"
Around the tenth, Su Yang's parents were taken on their trip.
Tian Hanxiong invited Su Yang to a high-end business KTV to meet the Chief Financial Officer of Dongcheng Real Estate.
Tian Hanxiong stated that most civil engineering brothers liked this sort of thing, and the one invited today was the same!
This was called catering to one's interests, and the cost would naturally be footed by Su Yang!
At nine in the evening, Liu Jianda, the CFO of Dongcheng Real Estate, arrived at the private room on time, without being late.
Liu Jianda was in his fifties and kept himself in decent shape. He was a bit balding, but his face looked oily and prosperous.
Under Tian Hanxiong's introduction, both sides exchanged some pleasantries.
Although Su Yang looked young, Liu Jianda did not underestimate him.
When Tian Hanxiong invited Liu Jianda, he had also slightly revealed Su Yang's background.
Otherwise, the man might not have been willing to accept the invitation!
Next, Tian Hanxiong familiarly had the manager find some girls to accompany them for drinks.
These girls wore high-slit qipaos, and each one had a quite good figure.
Combined with the lighting in the private room, their beauty was enhanced by another level!
Su Yang quickly noticed a girl who scored at least ninety points in looks. He pointed at her and smiled, "Director Liu, I think that one is not bad!"
As for why someone so beautiful would come to work at a business KTV.
It was rare, but Su Yang had seen one before when he was entertaining in Shancheng.
Some girls could play a good hand of cards terribly!
Beauty combined with anything else was a winning hand, but on its own, it could lead to a disastrous loss...
Liu Jianda shook his head. "Chairman Su, if you like her, you can have her accompany you... I think that girl is quite cute!"
He pointed at a girl who scored around eighty points in looks; her appearance easily gave people a sense of friendliness.
The girl also had a smile on her face and looked quite sunny and cheerful!
"Oh!"
Su Yang was slightly confused.
"Chairman Su's experience is probably not rich enough!" Liu Jianda explained with a smile. "The ones who are too beautiful are hard to approach; some will even put on airs!"
"I stand corrected!"
He recalled the girls he had hired for drinks before; they all seemed quite active, and no one had ever given him a cold shoulder!
Liu Jianda smiled again. "But for someone like Chairman Su, she probably wouldn't resist... unlike a fossil like me, who's often looked down upon!"
Tian Hanxiong said with a smile, "Director Liu is too humble. By today's standards, you are still in your prime!"
After selecting the girls, the three of them drank and chatted, though they didn't get to the main topic yet.
The most beautiful girl accompanied Su Yang. Tian Hanxiong had picked her for him, and Su Yang didn't pay much attention.
On the other hand, Liu Jianda was quite good at reading people. The girl he chose was very articulate, sharp-tongued, and knew how to handle things.
She really livened up the atmosphere!
Faced with the beauty beside him, Tian Hanxiong was also on his best behavior.
Liu Jianda didn't get handsy with the girl beside him either. Instead, he talked about Su Yang's industries and even praised Nine Fragrance Hotpot for being delicious!
