437: Chapter 64: Lisa Proposed a Terrifying Suggestion_2 437: Chapter 64: Lisa Proposed a Terrifying Suggestion_2 CEO Cheng’s chat style always had a kind of whimsical romance to it, a romance behind which lay his unique super problem-solving approach.

A superficial problem could easily be clarified, but if during the process, they discussed some deeper and more valuable topics related to it, then the energy of the high-value topics would influence both parties’ perception of the low-value topics.

The method of abruptly increasing value is too abstract, presumptuous, and hard to grasp.

However, this high-value topic coverage is an alternative to the direct value-increase approach—its effect is almost as good.

Adults find it difficult to change another adult’s values, but pure high-value coverage doesn’t involve the content of value systems, it’s softer and more practical for guidance and implementation.

“Go public?” The blonde white girl replied with a peculiar expression.

To be honest, she didn’t believe MAS would go very far.

There are many MCN agencies in America with a relatively long history, and as the vice president of MAS for over a month, the blonde white girl had gained some understanding of the experiences of these industry predecessors.

Initially, she helped CEO Cheng partly out of friendship and partly to challenge herself in industries other than perfume.

The reason for her prolonged indecision was simply because she never had much faith in Cheng Daqi’s MAS going very far—though she believed CEO Cheng could run it for a while, that much was certain.

Lisa, although she claimed to be an investment guru, understood her own capabilities.

So even when she clearly saw that opportunities weren’t great, she still wanted to give it a try, which led to her investment in Shanhaiguan.

“Ten billion, but ten billion Dollars is just my minimum goal.

Meaning, even if one day I reach that scale, I will still feel like a failure.”

Cheng Daqi’s response sounded almost like he was bragging.

Ten billion Dollars?

And that’s just the starting point?

Chen, do you even know what ten billion Dollars means?

If you had that much money, Mi’er would even be willing to be your dog!

The blonde white girl’s olive-colored eyes shone as she sized up CEO Cheng, filled with a look that screamed ‘you must be crazy.’

“Maker Studios was previously acquired by Disney, and Disney paid just under seven hundred million, but within a few years, Maker Studios went under, Chen…”

“Times have changed, Lisa.

Maker Studios primarily signed YouTube personalities, while our MAS has, to date, only signed two from YouTube, with the majority being short video influencers.

We’re not the same type of company at all.”

CEO Cheng’s response was firm—he had to make his future chief lieutenants understand that MAS truly had the potential to soar.

If the top management of a company lacked confidence in their own firm, how could it possibly go far?

“Fullscreen also tanked, Chen.

I feel MAS can achieve tens of millions, that’s not a problem, but if you set your targets too high, I think it’s somewhat blind.”

The blonde white girl belonged to the educated American middle class elite, not someone who could be easily fooled by a few flattering words.

“Why don’t you consider Awesomeness TV?

Aren’t they doing pretty well now?”

Cheng Daqi didn’t like Lisa’s pessimism, but he couldn’t tell her that he was from the future, where short videos were increasingly popular.

“Chen, behind Awesomeness TV is Verizon.

They have the channels of a telecommunications company.

What telecom company backs MAS?”

Checkmate!

That’s how CEO Cheng got checkmated by Lisa!

That was why Cheng Daqi hired Lisa, a girl born and bred in the American elite, and not an unaffordable elite like Temir or Wolf.

The blonde white girl was smart and principled, had abundant experience and a good understanding of the American market environment.

She was truly excellent talent who could stand out even at Google or Microsoft.

“Lisa, here’s the thing, why can’t you have a little more faith in me?

Perhaps others can’t do it, but I’ve already achieved what could be called a miracle in just over a month.

It’s not self-praise, but I still hope you can have more faith in me.

I’m doing great now and will continue to do great in the future.”

Sometimes you can’t be too modest when you’re away from home.

Getting checkmated isn’t a big deal.

We’re all friends and can be a bit more tolerant with each other.

Lisa and CEO Cheng were acquainted.

Of course she was aware of Cheng Daqi’s abilities, which is why she just shook her head.

Perhaps she was indicating that what she had just said was too much, or perhaps she was simply indicating that what Cheng Daqi said was nonsense.

CEO Cheng tended to believe the former, but Lisa wasn’t going to explain—after all, she had always had quite a bit of faith in CEO Cheng.

If she hadn’t believed in CEO Cheng, why would she have invested money when MAS didn’t even have a PPT?

But you see, believing in CEO Cheng ≠ believing in the MAS as an MCN business model.

It was her mindset and limited understanding.

Even though CEO Cheng had discussed these issues with her on multiple occasions and from multiple perspectives, she was still unable to understand or agree.

“How should I explain this to Mi’er?” The girl asked a more realistic and pressing question.

The black-haired rich woman would hate it if Cheng Daqi died, and if she knew that her best friend was stolen by this damn man, it was possible she’d chop up Xiao Cheng and feed him to dogs.

“No need to explain.

She took so much money from me.

If MAS can’t pay your salary for the time being, what’s it to OC to pay you an extra sum?”

Cheng Daqi knew how to run a company.

The vice president of your own company doesn’t get paid by you but by the shareholders, is that it?

“What’s the deal between you and Mi’er?

She only told me, ‘Chen gave me an unexpected big gift,’ but she didn’t share the details with me.”

“We took care of Gru together, and she made a lot of money.” CEO Cheng didn’t want to elaborate too much because it was too sensitive a matter.
