"Hey, look at you, what sort of state are you in right now?"

Emperor Youyou’s face displayed an unusually awkward expression, one that normally only surfaced when dealing with his disappointing father from the past.

"Your complexion is sallow, your pores are enlarged, your skin tone is dull, your eyes are hollow, devoid of any vigor for life. Your hair has even grown this long; are you about to sprout mottles like a corpse?"

"I told you to take a six-month break to reflect and then come back to make games, not to wallow in depression for half a year and end up looking like a ghost."

"Just look at yourself now; where’s the resemblance to ’A-Star,’ the producer from Youxing Studio who created ’Dragon Quest’?

"Because the ’Father of Dragon Quest’ isn’t me; it’s you, President You..."

"We’re at the company now, and although we haven’t recruited any other employees yet, you should refer to official titles when working."

The man’s attitude became even more respectful as he sat up straight, "Okay, okay, President You!"

Take a good look; the man that appears before your eyes, brimming with a sense of defeatism and lacking any livelihood, is Song Hang.

Three years ago, after being downsized by his company, he returned to his hometown in Mei City. Lost without a direction, he even contemplated suicide. At the same time, he encountered Fang You and his friends.

With everyone’s concerted effort, Song Hang rekindled his hope for life and, also with Fang You’s support, found a direction to strive for—

That was in making games.

With Fang You’s superb copying skills, they re-launched the "Dragon Quest" series in this world, receiving critical acclaim on the Spica platform.

It not only placed Emperor Youyou, still a primary school student, among the ranks of millionaires, but also provided Song Hang with a substantial and stable income, achieving financial freedom.

With the backing of the Great Emperor, he should’ve been considered at least a semi-Life Winner by now. According to Fang You’s thoughts, things should’ve been getting better for him.

But the present Song Hang obviously wasn’t any happier.

"Tell me, what’s been going on lately?"

"Um... this." Song Hang was a bit confused, "I don’t know... I was following the original plan."

"Then what about learning to socialize? Have you watched any stand-up comedy, seen any musicals, traveled on your own?"

"I did, I’ve seen them all. Here are the stubs, President You, please have a look."

Song Hang showed Fang You the tickets for stand-up comedy shows, musicals, plane tickets for travel, and even photos from various venues as verification.

"... Did you go alone to all these?"

"Ah? Do I need to bring someone else?"

"I thought you would bring along some old friends or colleagues."

"I’ve lost contact with former colleagues. As for friends, they all have their own families now, so it’s not convenient to bother them."

"Then can’t you—"

Fang You thought for a moment, but the words on the tip of his tongue weren’t spoken.

"Never mind, we can’t expect too much from you. It’s still better to go out than to stew at home all day."

Fang You said, "But how do you plan to handle the company’s business? I told you my plans to formalize and scale our studio, right? This is the strategic plan for Youxing Studio."

"Here’s the business license for Youxing Technology Online Limited; I’ve already registered it."

"Since you’re not old enough, I’ll act as the legal representative for now."

"It’s fine, you’ll be the legal representative in the future."

Fang You said, "But the company can’t operate with just you. We need other administrative positions, such as—"

"President You, look, this is the CPA certificate. I can handle the finances myself in the future," said Song Hang, pulling out his certification from his bag to show Fang You.

"Hmm? I remember this certificate being very difficult to get..."

"Additionally, here’s the lawyer’s license. I can take care of the company’s legal matters as well."

"..."

Song Hang continued to search in his bag for other certificates.

"Wait, hold on a second."

Fang You raised an eyebrow, "I asked you to learn about business management, and now you’ve acquired all these certificates on your own. What’s the meaning behind this?"

"After we set up the company, I can handle all these myself; isn’t that saving you money, President You?" Song Hang felt a bit wronged by Fang You’s reproof, "This was also part of your request for me, to reflect on myself."

"I don’t need you to save money for me; you don’t have to do everything yourself. What you need to do is hire people for me."

Fang You said, "Let’s see how well you’ve learned about managing and operating a business."

Fang You tried to engage Song Hang in a discussion about knowledge of corporate management and operation.

At the same time, he activated the "Guidance Gift" talent.

The generous Emperor Youyou didn’t hesitate to expend his knowledge energy, trying to save and make up for his protégé’s shortcomings.

"How do you think we can improve the team’s collaboration efficiency?"

"First, we need to clarify the goals and expectations, ensuring that every member is clear about the team’s objectives as well as their individual role and responsibilities, giving everyone a sense of belonging. Next is to utilize project management tools effectively, like Jira and SourceTree, for team collaboration; then comes regular check-ins, where everyone communicates to understand the current progress..."

"How do you plan to motivate employees and enhance performance?"

"By paying a lot of money. We’ll have a profit-sharing system for projects so that everyone involved can receive a portion. We’ll also provide them with a plethora of benefits beyond work, such as extra annual leave, meal allowances, housing subsidies... But the prerequisite for these benefits is that we have a reasonable and strict interview and review mechanism to prevent any passive employees from slacking off in our company..."

...

After discussing many company management issues with Song Hang, Fang You realized none of his knowledge energy was consumed; in fact, he found that many of Song Hang’s management philosophies overlapped with his own almost entirely.

"Aren’t you knowledgeable about everything? Why not start recruiting?"

"I... feel that I haven’t accumulated enough experience yet... After all, our studio is aiming to recruit elite talent, so we must act cautiously."

"Wait a minute, when was the last time you talked to someone else? Do you remember what you said?"

"..."

Song Hang frowned and thought for a bit. "About three days ago, I went to Xifu Bookstore to buy books. I spoke to the cashier, asked her how much it was, and then said I didn’t need a bag."

After speaking with Song Hang, Fang You sighed deeply. "You know so much, yet you still can’t make the best of life."

Fang You’s original plan was to rely on Song Hang to build a game development team. As long as he provided the ideas and let the team handle the implementation, he could gradually grow the team stronger.

However, it was clear that Song Hang’s problem wasn’t capacity for work but rather his inability to manage and almost non-existent social skills. With these issues, he wouldn’t be able to lead a team effectively.

Meanwhile, Fang You had set a new goal: to create a Humanoid Succubus.

Compared to sports teams that couldn’t last many years, a company was clearly a better organizational structure. People would come together for the dream of making games and stay for the high profits of the company.

Build a small but elite team, leaving other troublesome matters to the magical Life Winner System and inexpensive outsourcing.

Recruit core elite members, establish one’s authority in the team through various means and methods, and play the role of a leader.

Is it a bit early to start a company at 11?

No, for Emperor Youyou, it’s not early at all!

"It’s just that the current state of this first (mighty) general (steed) is worrying and he must be motivated to rally."

Fang You said, "If you really can’t handle offline interactions and recruitment work, don’t force yourself. I’ll take care of the interviews while you learn. But can you tell me why you’ve been looking so tired lately?"

"I can’t really say..."

Song Hang thought for a moment and said, "I think I might do better when I’m busy. I only feel happy when I am making games."

"You really are born to be a hard worker..."

"Uncle Song Hang, what I want to tell you is that no matter how capable a person is, they cannot achieve great things alone."

Fang You spoke earnestly, "If you’re just working for money, I can continue to arrange small projects for you."

"But, I hope you can understand my good intentions."

"If you truly want to accomplish something great under my guidance, you should unleash your real strength."

Fang You looked into Song Hang’s eyes. "As a former employee of Star Sea Technology, don’t you want to create a game that surpasses the ’Paru’ series, especially the ’Paru Ultra’ that’s set for testing at the end of this year?"

"Yes... of course, I do, but—"

"No buts!"

Fang You patted Song Hang on the shoulder. "If you want to do it, then just go for it!"

"With someone as awesome as me backing you, what can’t you accomplish? Consider me your strong support; just go ahead and do it."

"I... I’ll do my best!"

Song Hang nodded seriously. "I’ll post the job description on Boss Direct Hire right now. No matter what, I’ll start trying to conduct interviews!"

[You’ve experienced the joy of painting a big picture, knowledge energy +10]

"However, President You, have you already planned out what our next game will be?"

Song Hang said, "If I know what we’re working on next, I can write a more targeted and purposeful job description. After all, the gaming circle in Mei City isn’t that large, and it’s not easy to find the right talent."

He really can’t forget about work...

"We don’t need to limit ourselves to talent from Mei City. If they’re good enough, remote work is perfectly fine," said Fang You.

"And an even more important point is that I’m going to Zhendan Academy next year. Recruiting local talent is not very convenient since Zhendan is the largest city in Hua Country, and it will be easier to recruit there."

"That’s true!"

Song Hang suddenly realized the point. "Alright, then next year, let’s move the company to Zhendan. I’ll look into how to relocate the company..."

Seeing the excited look on Song Hang’s face, Fang You frowned slightly. "Why... do you sound like you’re looking forward to it?"

"Living with my parents does come with many issues."

Song Hang said, "Uncle, I’m plagued by a lot of things right now, but you might not be able to understand with your young age... You’ll get it when you’re my age."

Fang You spread his hands helplessly. "What’s there to not understand? It’s probably just the pressure to get married and find a partner... But seriously, you should make an effort to meet more people. If you don’t work hard now, you’ll regret it when you’re no longer capable."

"Damn, you’re only a primary school student, how do you even know this!"

Song Hang, who had always treated Fang You with great respect, was immediately thrown off by Fang You’s blunt remarks.
