Chapter 798: Chapter 334: Horse Racing for Land_3
Fine, got it.
Su Huai immediately realized just what level his popularity had reached: from campus celebrity to core influencer.
In fact, if you think about it, it’s quite normal: poison + two viral videos + internet celebrity company, buffs all stacked, who else is qualified to top the campus search rankings if not him?
From the very beginning when he started the sour plum drink business, he was no obscure soldier; now one could only say that he had firmly established his flag.
"Is everyone calling me a heartthrob?"
Su Huai joked in a spirit of optimism, only to see his two younger brothers nod vehemently.
"Yeah, absolutely! All I’ve seen are calls of ’heartthrob’."
"There aren’t many girls who want to meet you, mainly because they don’t dare, but there are plenty of girls who talk about you in secret or even take candid shots of you; I’ve seen it many times in the groups."
"Candid shots?"
"Seriously!" Sao Ji declared earnestly, "I’ve deleted loads of those photos already!"
Su Huai was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache.
With the development of the times and technological progress, it has gradually become a trend for young people to casually take a video with their smartphones and post it online, leaving personal privacy increasingly unprotected.
The upside is that becoming an internet celebrity has a lower threshold, but the downside is that non-celebrities often suffer from this too.
Su Huai, of course, belonged to the latter group; he had never thought about showing his face personally.
Therefore, a considerable part of the company’s operations department was dedicated to monitoring Mr. Su’s public sentiment.
Compared to Gu Tongshu’s protective measures for Yueyue, Xingyu’s capabilities clearly weren’t enough.
If classmates kept sharing like this, he would be stripped bare...
He had to resolve this issue during the holiday.
Su Huai resolved silently, then said goodbye to his brothers.
"If you guys need anything with buying tickets, just let me know, I’m off, boys."
"Sure, Godfather, see you next year!"
Carrying a not-so-big suitcase, he left the house and Fu Yu company’s driver came in Gu’s Rolls-Royce Phantom to pick him up. The vehicle hadn’t been transferred over yet, but Su Huai had already secured the right to use it; sooner or later, it would be his inside and out.
Heading straight to the airport after getting on the freeway, Su Huai’s itinerary was Hangzhou, Magic Capital, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, Chongqing, Chengdu, Xi’an, Zhengzhou, and after going around in a big circle, stopping for one day each in Shenyang, Changchun, and Harbin.
Before the Lunar New Year, he would sort out the site selections for the first batch of branch offices.
The mission was tough, but not difficult.
Because the operating model of MCN agencies means the management of branch offices doesn’t need very high-level authorization; you can basically copy the system over, with no financial autonomy, just rent a place to set up the live broadcast base and ensure the logistics for the anchors, and essentially even a dog could manage it reasonably well.
The talent scouting department would weave a large net with the branch offices as nodes, casual signings for anchors below grade A, grade A and above require approval and pending review.
Operations would be under direct command, with agents and business handled locally but with both parties keeping records; the structure was quite flat.
So, being a branch manager was a thankless job with the responsibility of pioneering without the power to do so, which is why Su Huai raised the salary to entice them.
Restricting their power was because the industry is just too prone to chaos.
Big fishes in small ponds, once you let them have warlord-like powers, naturally the desire to be crowned arises; embezzling some money Su Huai could endure, but the fear was that they would turn the branch offices into harems.
"Not even I have started a harem, but to let them sleep their way through the company’s wealth, wouldn’t that be too aggrieved?"
Don’t doubt whether this could happen; human nature is the least reliable thing to test.
Therefore, reducing the enthusiasm of pioneering frontiersmen was a choice between two harms, taking the lesser one.
Su Huai arrived at the airport where Fu Yu, Chen Ru, and Tang Xian’er were already waiting.
After greeting the two deputy directors, Su Huai turned to look at Tang Xian’er, "Decided? Really want to transfer to the assistant position?"
"Yes, I’ve thought it through. I’m not suited to be an anchor; it’s too draining. Mr. Su, please take me in and give me a chance to show you!"
Tang Xian’er spoke in her distinctive way, all in short sentences, soft and coquettish but not slow.
She was one of the first batch of beauties Su Huai picked up with Radar, the whitest and prettiest.
Of the first list, Chen Ru interacted with dozens, only 14 came to Xingyu for an interview, and in the end, only 5 were mutually happy to stay on, and now another had dropped out.
"You don’t seem like someone who shies away from internal conflicts," Su Huai noted, staring at her.
"Not shy, but that doesn’t mean I like it~~~"
Tang Xian’er leaned close to Su Huai, honest but in a quiet voice.
"After a few days as an anchor, I realized just how devastating this industry is, with my... well, conditions for survival, there’s really no need to struggle like this."
"Survival conditions? Haha!"
Su Huai was amused but kept it short, then asked further, "Then why the need to do this assistant job? The salary’s low, and there’s little career progression."
"It’s to learn things by following you!"
Tang Xian’er was now a bit coquettish, expertly flattering.
"Being able to learn by your side and broaden my horizons, even if it costs me, how many would welcome the opportunity? I’m not greedy, I’m content even to be a maid; just watch my performance!"
Su Huai was somewhat taken aback.
Can you say she’s not smart?
Nope.
But watching a burgeoning industry like live streaming pass by, unwilling to dive in for a share, obviously showed arrogance.
Alright, a top-quality beauty indeed has reasons to be arrogant.
But Su Huai couldn’t possibly trust her genuinely; she would only be used for odd jobs, a lavish waste.
There’s no help for it; who would have thought the guy is so darn successful?
She didn’t mind, volunteering, and perhaps relishing the opportunity—who knows?
"Well then, let’s head out to claim our turf."
And so, Su Huai took his business empire on the road for a national rollout.
Upon arrival in Hangzhou, the first thing to do was to use this month’s free Radar; a sweep and the list gained another 2000 potential candidates.
Perfect score beauties?
Turns out they’re not that valuable after all.
