Chapter 292: Self-Media is Actually Pretty Easy! Acquiring Linxing Ingredients!

On Tuesday, just as Su Yang was preparing to head out, Chen Qingzhou reported to him that the previous incident involving the simultaneous expulsion of over ten students had been reported!

The authorities had even called to ask what exactly was going on.

Although private universities are relatively "free," they are still subject to supervision.

Xiang Fangting's father, Xiang Longqiang, had even teamed up with some parents of students who were advised to withdraw or expelled to post whistleblowing videos online.

They claimed that Yanhu Vocational School expelled, advised withdrawal, and framed students at will.

They said their hard-earned investment (tuition fees) had gone down the drain.

They even played the victim, saying how difficult it was for them to afford their children's education...

Su Yang felt the other party had some skill, and he also felt that the old Yanhu Vocational School had been in the wrong before.

If they were going to expel someone, they really should have done it as early as possible!

But that was the Yanhu Vocational School of the old Dongcheng Group; what did it have to do with his Jufan Holdings' Yanhu Vocational School?

As for the authorities, Chen Qingzhou had already explained in detail, so there were no issues there.

Whether it was expulsion or advising withdrawal, everything was done strictly according to the school rules.

There was no case of anyone being framed!

Bullying, cheating, long-term absenteeism, fighting causing serious consequences... there was absolutely nothing wrong with handling it this way; it was just that a large number of students were handled all at once this time!

And Xiang Longqiang seized the opportunity to organize the parents of those expelled and advised-to-withdraw students.

To be honest, those children all had various problems; how good could their parents be?

Su Yang felt some sympathy for the money they had wasted.

However, he felt no psychological burden regarding the act of expelling or advising students to withdraw.

Regarding the online reports, Chen Qingzhou needed to consult Su Yang for his opinion.

Su Yang found the video link sent by Chen Qingzhou and took a look, finding it somewhat laughable!

The video Xiang Longqiang posted on Douyin had almost no traffic at all.

There were a few netizens who left comments... but almost all of them were on the school's side!

David: "Just because you say the school framed your daughter, does it mean they actually did? Let the bullets fly for a while!"

Feifei dlsdx: "Vocational schools don't just expel students for no reason; after all, they're all cash cows... putting them in a factory can make a huge profit!"

Yu Baobei: "I think there's nothing wrong with vocational schools being strict about discipline."

Fat Chen's Boring Life: "You're not even mentioning why those other students were expelled!"

...

Su Yang replied somewhat helplessly on wechat: "This traffic is truly pathetic. Have Spark Media give them some traffic and help them repost and promote it!"

Chen Qingzhou: "This..."

Su Yang: "It's better to make a bit of a scene. Then we'll make an official clarification and hold that Xiang Longqiang legally responsible, suing him for defamation and spreading rumors... while we're at it, we can increase our school's name recognition a bit!"

It took a long time before Chen Qingzhou replied: "Understood!"

Su Yang: "Remember to establish a good image of our school having strict management and responsible teachers!"

Chen Qingzhou: "Okay!"

Su Yang: "Don't worry, it won't backfire!"

This much, he could guarantee.

In a hotel in Jindu District, Xiang Longqiang saw the number of likes, shares, and comments on his video soaring, and he couldn't help but be happy!

Specifically, he began to see comments supporting his rights protection.

To be honest, when the video was first released, he was scolded by netizens.

Seeing netizens actually supporting the school made him feel very uncomfortable!

Now someone finally supported him, and there seemed to be quite a few of them!

He had indeed organized some parents of students who were advised to withdraw.

However, those parents all wanted to negotiate with the school.

They hoped the school would back down or refund the tuition for both freshman and sophomore years.

Ideally, they wanted the school to just give their children a graduation certificate... just like in high school!

Seeing his video data jump every time he refreshed, Xiang Longqiang couldn't help but feel a bit smug, thinking that doing self-media was just too simple!

He even began to fantasize about the scene where that vice principal of Yanhu Vocational School would kneel and apologize to him under the pressure of public opinion!

"Hmph! Just you wait!"

On Tuesday afternoon, Su Yang headed to Lin City to meet up with Fengyuan General Manager Qian Xiaochang and the Lin City head of Jiuxiang Catering, Xiang Nantian.

Xiang Nantian was also an old store manager of Su Yang's, with rich experience in the catering industry and a mature, steady personality.

Ji Guoxiong also intended to give him a significant role this time!

That evening, he met with the various shareholders of Linxing Ingredients.

Many shareholders also asked Su Yang about when Jiuxiang Catering would come to Lin City to open branch stores!

On Wednesday, the two parties officially signed the contract.

Fengyuan Ingredients acquired a controlling stake in Linxing Ingredients for ten million, obtaining 72.4% of the shares!

The acquisition price was slightly high, but Su Yang didn't care much.

In the following period, he accepted successive invitations to banquets to build rapport with the local shareholders.

He also took the opportunity to give the nearly two hundred employees of Linxing Ingredients a monthly salary increase of one thousand, gaining some goodwill from these employees.

If the employees of Linxing Ingredients wanted better benefits and higher salaries... that would definitely require waiting until Linxing Ingredients became profitable!

Regarding the salary increase for employees, Fengyuan had already made it clear to the other shareholders of Linxing Ingredients during the negotiations.

The reason, of course, was to increase employee motivation... this was Fengyuan's corporate culture!

The Linxing shareholders who hadn't sold all their shares were all willing to follow Jufan Holdings!

They believed that Jiuxiang Catering, which was popular in Rongcheng and Shancheng, had a very bright future.

Having capital invest in Linxing Ingredients would also give Linxing greater development prospects!

After taking over Linxing, Su Yang dismissed the original general manager of Linxing and appointed the original vice president of Linxing, Feng Tiesong, as the general manager.

The original general manager of Linxing had poor character and poor ability!

Subsequently, Su Yang transferred two excellent middle-management staff from Fengyuan Ingredients and Jiuxiang Catering to serve as the Finance and HR Managers!

Qian Xiaochang and Feng Tiesong would continue to reorganize Linxing Ingredients' business.

Even after Qian Xiaochang left, Xiang Nantian, the head sent by Jiuxiang Catering to Lin City, would help keep an eye on Linxing Ingredients!

After checking the renovation progress of the three Jiuxiang Hotpot stores in Lin City, Su Yang bid farewell to Qian Xiaochang and Xiang Nantian and rushed to Shancheng without stopping.

Shancheng, Shanbei District.

Shancheng's industry is quite developed, with Shanbei District ranking first among all districts and counties in terms of industrial output value.

And this place was also quite suitable for a high-quality yet affordable Chinese fast-food chain like Weimeijia!

Taking advantage of the fact that the workers hadn't finished their shifts yet, Su Yang and Xu Zhu found a clean spot to sit down and had the server bring over two servings of food.

"Taste it and see how it is!"

Su Yang said with a smile.

"Okay!"

Xu Zhu quite ladylike-ly picked up a slice of meat and put it in her mouth; after chewing, she nodded and smiled: "It's indeed not bad... although it can't compare to those private kitchens and high-end restaurants, it's much better than my family's factory cafeteria!"

"Of course it can't compare to private kitchens!" Su Yang said helplessly. "It's all prepared in a central kitchen and then delivered to each storefront; it's already not easy to make it this delicious!"

"Mm!"

Xu Zhu nodded, accepting Su Yang's explanation!

Su Yang asked with a smile: "Want to cooperate?"

"Sure!"

Xu Zhu nodded and extended her hand to Su Yang.

Su Yang followed suit and shook it!
