362: Chapter 362: Clash of Beauties!

Chance encounters are always better than planned ones.

Xu Wei, temporarily playing the role of a ‘delivery person’ at the company, ran into Wu Jie and Tang Xiao in the stairwell.

As a nouveau riche from demolitions, known by the nickname Black Pupil King, he relished in all things novel and peculiar.

Yesterday, he flew to two different cities for Wu Jie to hand out cash to two female celebrities.

Finally seeing what celebrities looked like in person greatly piqued his interest.

So, bright and early, Xu Wei came again, ready to selectively make deliveries, specifically targeting those with high profiles or good looks.

This chance meeting in the stairwell left Xu Wei completely dumbfounded.

“Oh my goodness!”

“Did I step in dog poop when I left the house this morning?

To think… to think I’d run into you two!”

Xu Wei chuckled as he glanced at Tang Xiao, then gave Wu Jie a knowing look.

“Nice moral integrity!

Becoming a big boss and marrying a fair-skinned, rich, and beautiful woman, you’ve really reached the pinnacle of life!”

After his mocking comment, Xu Wei nodded and smiled at Tang Xiao:

“Hello President Tang, my name is Xu Wei, online as Black Pupil King, and I’ve known moral integrity, oh no, I mean Mr.

Wu, for many years…”

Xu Wei gave a brief introduction.

Tang Xiao snorted with a chuckle: “So that’s where all those movies come from; you were the one giving them to him!”

“Not all of them!

He also sends me some!” Xu Wei said with a hehe laugh.

Wu Jie, breaking into a cold sweat, said, “Alright, Hei, hurry up and go sign for the delivery upstairs!”

With that, Wu Jie put his arm around Tang Xiao’s slender waist and headed downstairs.

“You two take care!”

Xu Wei cheerfully shouted after them, watching as they got into the Mercedes G-Class before retracting his gaze.

“Weird!

Isn’t moral integrity usually so flamboyant online?

But President Tang doesn’t seem like a married woman at all!”

Xu Wei was puzzled but didn’t feel it was appropriate to chase them down with questions.

Meanwhile, inside the car.

Tang Xiao hummed: “Birds of a feather flock together, indeed!

You slouch around with such a sleazy air, and it turns out your online friends are no better!”

Wu Jie explained: “Hei is from a family of demolitions, compensated with a dozen or so houses in the suburbs, so he’s not short of money and is naturally easygoing.

Don’t be fooled by his slovenly, unserious demeanor; the guy is actually quite honest!”

Tang Xiao gave a sidelong glare and scoffed:

“I find you rather strange!

The group has many talented individuals who are willing to help you for free, yet you refuse and instead seek help from these kinds of people!”

“Handing over marketing to a real estate seller, and promotion activities to a demolition relocator, you really have an unconventional way of employing talents!”

Wu Jie laughed: “I’m just putting people’s talents to good use!

Besides, you’re only lending me people temporarily.

Can they stay busy on both sides long-term?

I have to cultivate my own team for the company’s healthy growth, right?”

Tang Xiao smiled faintly:

“You do have a business mind, but how do you plan to deal with the over one hundred million Gold Coins on my account?”

Wu Jie stroked his chin and thought carefully.

“There’s no need to transfer the money to me.

Have the group build me a data center instead!”

“It doesn’t need to be too big.

I’ll just use it for servicing the Genius Shot APP, but I need advanced equipment, strong network security, high automation, and the energy consumption can’t be too high!”

Before Tang Xiao could reply, Wu Jie quickly questioned her:

“Don’t tell me the group looks down on this small project.

The West African project is about to end, and the East African SAM project hasn’t even been bid on yet.

During this interim, we must have work, right?”

“Moreover, a project worth over one hundred million Gold Coins is not small.

And after last night’s cyber battle, I’m sure the engineers have learned a lot of lessons and need a small project to practice on!”

“Although the project I offered is small in scale, it’s competition-free with no mandatory requirements, leaving our engineers free to use their imagination and creativity to the fullest.

With such a great project coming their way, wouldn’t you want it?”

Tang Xiao hummed disapprovingly:

“These days, money is hard to earn, and shit is hard to swallow!”

“Every morning, as soon as I open my eyes, I am reminded of our 146,360 employees, whose salaries and benefits cost over one hundred billion each year, meaning at least three billion need to be earned daily, otherwise there won’t even be enough for paychecks!”

“Your project with the one hundred million Gold Coins, as long as the site is ready, can be completed in two weeks.

Why not do it?

With a gross profit margin of twenty percent, you could earn twenty to thirty million Gold Coins—that’s still meat, even if it’s from a mosquito!”

Wu Jie simply laughed.

The site… Could that be an issue?

If need be, I’ll just buy the entire building.

A data center, not too large in scale, can easily fit in the underground garage.

Even if more space is needed, renting or buying an additional property is an option.

With Chu Yunxuan, who has worked in the real estate industry for many years, why should her brother worry about her buying or renting houses?

“I can settle the issue with the venue today, you just arrange for people to come over quickly, start work as soon as the contract is signed, and it would be best if it’s in operation by next week.

After all, the number of original creators and users taking photos by great talents is exploding!”

Tang Xiao grunted, started up the Mercedes, and gave a cold sideways glance:

“Are you done talking?”

“Nothing else!

But I just wanted to sit alone with you for a while!”

“I have two meetings this morning, get out of the car quickly if you have nothing else!”

Wu Jie opened the door with a smile, “Not bad!

You finally stopped telling me to scram!”

Tang Xiao rolled her eyes, and just as she closed the car door, she pushed the gas pedal to the floor.

A muffled roaring sound.

The powerful and rugged Mercedes off-road vehicle roared away.

“It looks like bringing Chu Yunxuan into the company has really made her jealous!”

Muttering to himself, Wu Jie caught a glimpse of Chu Yunxuan’s Audi in the corner of his eye.

Dammit!

With so many empty parking spots, did she have to park right next to mine?

Back upstairs.

Deng Hua was gathering the staff for a meeting, and Chu Yunxuan was speaking eloquently.

“…

Bai Fengling’s family affairs should not be rehashed, three times is enough, as long as it sparks sufficient discussion!”

“Considering the livestream of the fresh meat last night, celebrity live broadcasts have a strong fan attraction effect!”

“Therefore, I suggest we consider having a ‘Star a Day’, to ensure that at least one celebrity is live during the prime time slot every day!”

“To deal with competition from our peers, we should focus our energy and financial resources on ensuring steady user growth and continuous activity!”

“Check-ins, watching movies, sharing, commenting, and pulling in new people…

We can spend very little money to attract a large number of potential users!”

…

Wu Jie listened for a while.

Chu Yunxuan’s ideas were good, spending little money to achieve big results.

Especially for middle-aged uncles and aunties, low-education smartphone users.

If they knew there was money to be made, no matter if it’s two cents a second, they would become actively engaged.

Like before on the phone, friends would constantly ask you to help them bargain.

The merchants spent little money but attracted a large user base.

The adverts were incredibly catchy, boasting three hundred million users.

However…

Chu Yunxuan’s approach was clearly different from Tang Xiao’s.

It felt like the two of them were completely at odds.

Tang Xiao was trying by every means to benefit the original creators, to acquire more and better video content, enhancing user stickiness.

And what about Chu Yunxuan?

She wanted to throw money to win over users, to boost user numbers first by burning cash, ensuring sustained activity, and seizing the market.

At first glance, it all seemed reasonable, all for the good of the company’s development.

But in reality?

For a newly founded company, even if it’s burning cash, there are limits.

If you please the original creators, you can’t please the users and vice versa.

If you want to please both sides, then the budget won’t cover it.

Even the landlord’s family has no surplus grain!

…

At the meeting, Wu Jie did not speak.

It was only after the meeting ended that Wu Jie called Chu Yunxuan aside.

“What are you trying to do?

On your first day at the company, you’re going against Tang Xiao?”

“She wants to focus on attracting original creators and postpone the advertising launch plan, but you’re doing the exact opposite!”

“So…

are you trying to prove that you’re better than her?”
