Chapter 324: Watching Movies in the Office! An Advertising Company with a Trap!

At eleven o'clock at night, Su Yang leaned back in his executive chair and rubbed his aching eyes.

Counting back, since becoming a boss, he hadn't worked overtime in the office so earnestly in a long time.

Of course, if networking and dining with clients counted as overtime, then this certainly wasn't the first time.

However, the results of this overtime session were quite obvious.

He now had a good idea of which of these over one hundred top students to hire.

After turning off the computer and walking out of his office, Su Yang saw that in the brightly lit workspace, only Jiang Yuzhen was still sitting at her desk, clutching a bag of potato chips and watching a movie.

The employees at the other workstations had long since left.

Emmm... none of them stayed to keep their boss company!

Coming up behind Jiang Yuzhen, he casually reached his hand into her bag of chips.

"Ah!"

Jiang Yuzhen jumped in fright, nearly dropping the chips.

Turning around and seeing it was Su Yang, she complained, "Boss, you nearly scared me to death!"

Since Su Yang was working overtime today, as his secretary, it was impossible for her to get off work.

So she stayed at the company, occasionally pouring water for Su Yang!

With nothing to do and everyone else gone, she had just found a random movie to watch.

"What movie?"

Su Yang noticed the picture quality wasn't great, giving off the vibe of an old Hong Kong film.

"A Wicked Ghost. A friend recommended it; it's quite scary!"

"Oh!"

Su Yang had some impression of this movie.

When he was bored in the past, he preferred watching Western slasher films, like zombie movies and the like.

He politely declined horror films from Japan, Korea, or Thailand.

He'd only occasionally watch them with his roommates!

He sat down next to Jiang Yuzhen and naturally took the bag of chips from her arms.

He was truly hungry, having skipped dinner.

The chips produced by the Jiuxiang Food factory really did taste great.

His secretary also had good taste!

Seeing Su Yang snatching her chips, Jiang Yuzhen didn't know what to say.

She just continued watching the movie while eating along with Su Yang!

The movie was more than halfway through, and the horror atmosphere was growing thicker, with characters dying miserable deaths one by one... without realizing it, Jiang Yuzhen's small hand had tightly gripped Su Yang's arm.

Her rolling office chair had also drifted right up against Su Yang's.

Occasionally, she would even tremble from the terrifying atmosphere.

Su Yang had originally intended to leave after finishing the chips, but by now, he was also drawn in by the plot.

He had to admit, these old movies were better than many new ones.

When the plot reached the end and Chu Renmei's mournful singing echoed throughout the entire office, Jiang Yuzhen was already hugging Su Yang's arm to her chest.

Su Yang thought about it for a moment and decided to let her be.

Besides, Su Yang also felt a bit creeped out watching this kind of horror movie.

Being closer to Jiang Yuzhen helped bolster his courage too!

Of course, he wasn't really getting any advantage; Little Jiang was as flat as a washboard, and her clothes were quite thick!

Finally, the movie ended, and Jiang Yuzhen let out a long sigh of relief.

But it was only then that she noticed what she was holding in her arms.

Her face turned bright red, and she strategically adjusted her black-rimmed glasses.

Su Yang gently pulled his arm back and complained, "Don't watch horror movies in the office for no reason!"

I saw you watching it with great interest too!

Jiang Yuzhen grumbled inwardly, but her mouth honestly nodded: "Mm!"

"Have you had dinner?"

"Not yet!"

"Come on, the boss will treat you to a big meal!"

"Okay!"

And so, Su Yang took Jiang Yuzhen and Feng Hua to a restaurant for dinner.

For some reason, Jiang Yuzhen felt that the driver, Feng Hua, was a bit superfluous!

The next day, Xiang Changxing, the Vice President of Fengyuan who was on a business trip to Chang'an in Shaanxi Province, sent good news: he had reached an acquisition intent with the local Daming Ingredients in Chang'an.

This news made Su Yang a bit happier; he was just worrying about how to spend the funds on hand!

Xiang Changxing had headed to Chang'an after helping Fengyuan acquire Baihai Ingredients in Shancheng.

Quite some time had passed in a flash!

Another piece of good news was that the people Spark Media sent to Xiang Longqiang's hometown had gathered some intelligence. Xiang Longqiang's wife ran a tobacco and liquor store locally... however, the Spark Media people were quickly noticed!

After all, they weren't professional investigators!

Su Yang didn't have any talent in this area for the time being.

When the other side heard they were from a media company, they were actually quite polite.

They just asked why they were investigating the Xiang family's affairs.

The employees sent by Spark Media claimed they didn't know anything.

As a result, the other party contacted Yu Siying's side.

"The other side said they would make Xiang Longqiang's family accept the punishment and stop them from causing trouble at the school. They also said they would look after the business of the local Jiuxiang Hotpot Restaurant in the future!" Yu Siying said in a low voice. "It seems Xiang Longqiang's wife has some connections, but they shouldn't be very strong."

These words were spoken with a lot of tact.

After a brief thought, Su Yang said, "Tell them that if they keep their word, I agree!"

He didn't really care about one hotpot restaurant; he mainly didn't want to affect Spark Media.

Spark Media wasn't official media, and no one liked an MCN agency that talked out of turn!

Moreover, since the other side had backed down, Su Yang's goal was considered achieved.

"Okay, Boss!"

Su Yang thought for a moment and said, "Have Chen Qingzhou keep an eye on it!"

"Okay!"

"By the way, Boss, I also want to recommend an advertising company to you called Hanfeng Advertising!"

Yu Siying's voice carried an indescribable joy.

She was likely in a particularly good mood lately!

How could she not be?

Not only had Su Yang promised her a million-yuan year-end bonus, but the Menghai International Travel Agency she recommended had also been adopted by the boss, which counted as another 200,000 yuan in bonuses!

"Oh!" Su Yang was slightly surprised. "How is this advertising company?"

"It has a scale of about thirty people, with an annual profit of one million. The owner of the advertising company wants to sell it for seven million!" Yu Siying thought for a moment and said, "It might be a bit exaggerated, but I think it's not bad. Since the other party has the intention to sell, I think the head office can investigate!"

Yu Siying and the others were responsible for using their networks to help Su Yang find companies willing to sell.

The detailed investigation and acquisition work would naturally be handled by the head office.

"Send me the information to look over!"

Su Yang felt the name sounded a bit familiar.

He didn't pay it much mind; after all, he used to be an advertising man too.

For a traditional advertising company, having thirty employees was actually a decent scale!

If it really had an annual profit of one million, it was a high-quality company.

The asking price was seven million, but it could certainly be negotiated.

"Okay, Boss, I'll send it to you right away!"

Not long after, Yu Siying sent the information on Hanfeng Advertising to Su Yang.

Staring at Hanfeng Advertising, Su Yang used Business Deduction for a moment and couldn't help but frown.

This was a trap!

How so?

It was that after Su Yang took over the advertising company, the company's business would take a sharp turn for the worse after a period of time.

Several important clients would terminate their cooperation with the company one after another...

He narrowed his eyes slightly, roughly guessing a possibility!

Perhaps that owner's business relied entirely on strong personal connections.

If he acquired this company, it would be impossible to take over the company's resources.

The owner could sell the company for five million and then turn around and open a new advertising company.
