Chapter 44: If you fail, why don't you sell it to him?

at the same time.

A heated business discussion is taking place in the senior management conference room of the ByteDance Group in the Chaoyang District of Kyoto, thousands of miles away.

At this moment, Jiang Qing, the person in charge, looked at the senior executives of various departments present with displeasure.

Having witnessed Chen Xuan's profound Taoist arts and terrifying ability to attract fans in the past two days, Jiang Qing firmly believes that Chen Xuan can definitely be cultivated as the company's next top streamer.

Furthermore, she believes that the company's current live-streaming operation method is problematic. Relying solely on live-streaming sales has led to many users being scammed due to the inconsistent quality of merchants. She understands that if this continues, Longxia's official team will eventually intervene and implement stricter segmentation and management of live-streaming sales.

If the group does not adjust its strategic vision and respond in time, it will be punished by the authorities sooner or later.

When a large, nationally-level corporation is punished by the authorities, the penalties can easily start at hundreds of millions or even billions of yuan.

However, to her surprise, as soon as she shared her strategy and thoughts today, she was ostracized and even ridiculed by the heads of various departments.

Not to mention, when they saw Chen Xuan's almost harsh signing requirements, they even mocked him in front of Jiang Qing.

"An S-level contract with a fixed annual expenditure of 1000 million, and they won't allow any requirements on livestream duration? What kind of international joke is this?"

"Exactly! If the first point isn't outrageous, then the second point is absolutely incomprehensible!"

"If we don't participate in any form of commercial advertising or business cooperation with any group, then what's the point of signing with them?"

"Furthermore, his third contractual requirement is that he is completely unrestrained. If he disappears every day after we sign the contract, will we still have to pay huge signing fees every year?"

The managers of each department analyzed the pros and cons one by one, and then asked Jiang Qing, the person in charge of initiating the meeting, questions.

Jiang Qing simply sneered without answering. According to her business strategy, even if she expressed her thoughts, she would only be met with ridicule. Therefore, there was no need to explain anything, since most of these people only looked at the current performance data.

Unexpectedly, when the many leaders saw that the usually assertive Jiang Qing remained silent, they all thought they could finally find a reason to turn the tide.

Jiang Qing retorted arrogantly, "You don't need to be so sarcastic. I, Jiang Qing, have been working in the live streaming blockchain for less than a year. What have I achieved? Can you do the same?"

After Jiang Qing said this, all the department heads present fell silent, remaining completely silent.

Still not satisfied, Jiang Qing continued, "If anyone thinks they can do my job better than me and make the company profitable, or even profitable in the long term, then come on, I, Jiang Qing, will take the initiative to resign from my position as chairman."

The atmosphere in the meeting room became somewhat tense after these words were spoken. All the department managers present knew that Jiang Qing was one of the key personnel most valued by the higher-ups.

With the heads of each department remaining silent, everyone subconsciously looked at the middle-aged man in a suit who had been in charge and hadn't offered any opinions.

"President Zhang, please say something. We're all thinking about the group. The signing terms she offered are practically free money!"

When someone starts to oppose it, others will join in.

"That's right, Mr. Zhang, we can't open this door. After all, the group's profits are earned through everyone's hard work day and night. We can't just leave it like this without any explanation."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qing pursed her lips impatiently and gave a soft snort.

At this moment, the vice president, who had been calmly observing the situation, finally spoke.

He looked at Jiang Qing with a gentle smile and said, "Ah Qing, I personally admire you. You have generated huge profits for the company in less than a year. But why would you break up with your colleagues and even offer to resign to sign a new streamer this time?"

After finishing his sentence, the vice president took a leisurely sip of tea and continued, "To be honest, I'm very curious about what kind of content that little streamer is broadcasting. What could possibly make our group's beautiful and capable woman so enthusiastic?"

“You are very rational and capable. Now tell me your reasons. If you can give me enough reasons, I will agree with your judgment and sign him.”

This leader speaks in a different way.

First, acknowledge their work ability, then subtly question their decision, and make them provide compelling reasons to support their decision. This whole process is done discreetly and without offending either side.

Sure enough, after hearing the vice president's words, Jiang Qing smiled confidently and then clapped her hands at the conference room door.

Everyone turned to look, and saw the secretary, dressed in a smart little shirt and pencil skirt, walking towards them with a smile and carrying a notebook.

When Jiang Qing saw the secretary approaching, she looked at him questioningly, and the secretary nodded slightly.

Jiang Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief upon learning that Chen Xuan would start his broadcast at 7:00 sharp.

Her confidence in convincing everyone present, including the vice president, stemmed from her certainty that Chen Xuan's live stream this morning would be a huge hit.

Even though Chen Xuan's broadcast started at 7 a.m., she was still incredibly confident.

Jiang Qing took the laptop from the secretary and skillfully connected it to the large screen in the conference room.

They then went directly to Chen Xuan's live stream.

When the heads of various departments in the conference room saw that someone was going to start a live broadcast at 7:30 in the morning, they couldn't help but sneer.

Because usually, it's small streamers with little popularity or traffic who start broadcasting in this way.

However, as soon as Jiang Qing clicked into Chen Xuan's live stream, everyone present, except for the group's vice president, stared in disbelief at the live stream's popularity displayed at the top of the screen.

"At 7:30 in the morning, during the rush hour when everyone is crammed onto the subway and bus, how is it possible that this live stream could have 200,000 viewers?!"

Jiang Qing seemed to have expected this, and looked at the shocked expressions of the department heads with some smugness.

At this point, the head of the operations department disagreed, saying, "20 viewers in the live stream doesn't mean anything. There are too many streamers buying traffic these days, especially new companies' enterprise accounts."

"Yes, I can tell from the live stream that the viewership is bought. Look at this live stream with 20 viewers and not a single person is saying anything. They're just watching a Taoist priest practice. This Tai Chi doesn't look like Tai Chi, and this Eight Pieces of Brocade doesn't look like Eight Pieces of Brocade. What advantage does he have for the live stream?"

When the vice president saw that the live stream was indeed like this, he frowned slightly, mainly because it looked too much like a live stream with zombie followers.

What they didn't know was that, because of the fans' trust in Chen Xuan, all the fans in the live stream were practicing the Longevity Technique and breathing exercises with him one-to-one. It would be strange if anyone posted comments at this time.

This very fact led the senior management in the conference room to mistakenly believe that the viewers in Chen Xuan's live stream were either zombie fans or paid trolls.

Faced with such doubts, Jiang Qing didn't care. Ignoring everyone's stunned expressions, she got up and walked to the open space in the conference room, imitating Chen Xuan's movements in a very professional manner, as if she wanted to memorize them.

"Vice President, look at this! What kind of behavior is this!"

"Yes, this is the company's conference room, not a park for middle-aged and elderly people. This is so uncultured!"

……

The vice president also squinted at Jiang Qing, puzzled as well.

However, he remained calm and asked everyone to quiet down.

Because he had previously heard the chairman's evaluation of Jiang Qing: she had a unique strategic vision and was a natural reformer.

About ten minutes later.

Chen Xuan finally finished demonstrating the "Longevity Technique" and "Acquired Breathing Method" and returned to his phone screen.

Just now.

The once quiet comment section was now boiling over like a pot, making even the department head in the conference room dizzy.

[The Taoist priest is truly amazing; he didn't lie to me. These movements are so simple, I could practice them even while I'm taking a leak in the middle of the night!]

[Strengthens the body, preserves essence and yang, replenishes deficiencies in the five internal organs, and grows stronger the more you practice? Wow, this seems comparable to immortal cultivation techniques!]

[Hahaha, from this day forward I've stood up! Let's see which woman dares to say I'm no good!]

[Taoist Master, will practicing this combined with Yin breathing really improve my irregular menstruation and make me look radiant?]

[Hey upstairs sister, if you don't believe me, just leave! Don't question our Taoist priest. Even if he gave me a sheep dung elixir, I'd believe him.]

[Yeah, there are actually people questioning the story in the live stream? Yesterday, the hot red-lipped woman went missing and was abducted. The case is now closed, and the victim was Wang Wenjing. Do you think this is a coincidence?]

……

The live stream chat showed no signs of stopping, leaving everyone in the conference room utterly astonished.

Even so, some people still have doubts.

After consulting with the vice president, the operations manager said to his secretary, "Check how much of this live stream is fake, and what percentage of the followers are fake accounts."

As soon as he finished speaking, even the vice president subconsciously looked at Jiang Qing, hoping to get the information he wanted from her face.

Unfortunately, from beginning to end, Jiang Qing's face was filled with unwavering confidence.

Soon, the operations department checked the IP address distribution of the onlookers based on Chen Xuan's account backend. They were also taken aback when they saw it and subconsciously looked at their boss.

"What's wrong? Tell me the truth."

The secretary with long hair and a short skirt said "Oh," and then said, "Judging from the IP addresses of the fans in this live stream, it seems... they are all active fans, and none of them are paid trolls."

After he finished speaking, the conference room fell silent for a moment. The operations manager exclaimed, "What did you say? Say it again?!"

"Impossible. How could there be 200,000 live viewers watching a live stream at 7 a.m.?"

……

While the department heads were exchanging ideas, Jiang Qing remained calm and looked at the vice president, asking, "President Zhang, what do you think?"

As soon as Jiang Qing finished speaking, everyone present looked at President Zhang, who had the final say.

Mr. Zhang gave Jiang Qing a deep look before saying, "Since the chairman trusts you, I will also respect his judgment. We will sign, and we will accept whatever conditions he proposes."

Upon hearing the vice president's words, Jiang Qing finally revealed a stunning smile. "Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony. Let's draft a new SSS-level contract for Daoist Chen Xuan. Since it's a 3S-level contract, it has to be as sincere as a 3S-level contract."

Ignoring the dark faces of those around her, Jiang Qing pursed her sexy red lips and said, "I've got it! I think our company should pay the Taoist priest's personal tax every year."

Upon hearing Jiang Qing's words, the vice president's eyes twitched. "So, you mean, after upgrading from a 1000 million S-level contract to an SSS-level contract, we'll cover his annual personal tax of 450 million? He'll actually receive 1000 million, right?"

Jiang Qing smiled and nodded, "That's right, I think that's how you show sincerity."

Upon hearing this, General Manager Zhang smiled wryly at Jiang Qing, "It's good to be young, daring and willing to fight, but what if you misjudged this Chen Xuan..."

Hear this.

Without a second thought, Jiang Qing slammed her hand on the table and declared, "Then I'll use my annual dividends to make up for the company's losses!"

Upon hearing this, everyone gaped in shock.

Everyone thought this woman was truly insane.

"Good, that's bold! Go ahead and do it. Once you've drafted the contract, have your secretary come to me for my signature." After saying that, General Manager Zhang got up and left the conference room.

"Alright, Mr. Zhang, take care. I'll treat you to dinner after get off work, okay?"

Amidst the grim faces of the other departments, Jiang Qing saw General Manager Zhang off.

Then, with a disdainful look, he glanced at the heads of various departments present, scoffed, and led his secretary away from the conference room, swaying his slender waist.

"Boss, are you crazy? If the investment really fails, how are you going to cover such a high signing fee for the company? Are you going to sell yourself to Master Chen Xuan as his wife?"

The secretary actually has a very good relationship with Jiang Qing in private; they are practically best friends, which is why she was so careful to give her that reminder.

"Sell her to Master Chen Xuan as his wife?" Jiang Qing pursed her lips and nodded, suddenly enlightened. "It seems... to be a good idea."

Upon hearing this, the secretary felt a chill run down her spine.

She murmured softly, "What? Does being handsome really mean you can do whatever you want?"
