Chapter 1407: Pulling Sponsorship

"Come on, Xiao Lu, tilt your head a little, don't frown, lie down, and lower your shoulders a little..."

Wang Yan directed Lu Qianran, who was sitting on a stool, to adjust the angles of the lights. After a while, he took out the camera and took a few pictures.

"Okay, it's done. The equipment is here. I'll make it for you later." Wang Yan put down the camera with satisfaction and took out the film.

"Oh, it's finally done. You were too slow in taking the photos." Lu Qianran let out a long sigh and relaxed.

"Yes, Wang Yan, you were so fast at taking pictures before." Xie Qiao was also relieved that he had finally finished the job.

"How can it be the same? In the past, it was natural light, and if you caught the light, it would have to be fast and fleeting. Now we are indoors, and I set up the light myself, so shouldn't it be more delicate? Haven't you seen the top ten campus beauties in the country before? The photos you took today are much better than theirs. You will see for yourself later, I guarantee that they will dazzle your eyes."

Xiao Qianxi sighed: "Speaking of school beauties, is Zhiwo.com still holding an event this year?"

"Yes, we will do it every year as long as it is not stopped." Wang Yan nodded with a smile.

"No way, this can be stopped?" Xie Qiao said in surprise.

Wang Ying crossed her arms, still with that arrogant look: "It's a social orientation issue. It sounds good to say that the school beauty is a beauty pageant, but isn't it? Many of the winners last year entered the entertainment industry..."

She shook her head, obviously not having a high opinion of those school beauties who chose to join the entertainment industry. But then she thought again that she didn't seem to be in a good situation either, and she couldn't help but glare at Wang Yan.

Wang Yan smiled back and raised an eyebrow.

"It's really complicated." Xu Lin shook his head and sighed, "Wang Yan, I saw a lot of boys on the forum clamoring to choose the school hunk, why don't you do one?"

"People have different standards for men and women," Wang Yan said. "Not to mention men, even the previous school beauties were selected based on a number of comprehensive factors, not just appearance and figure. These are the basis, and the rest are bonus points.

If women are all like this, how can men be handsome in the same way? What is handsome? Is a pretty boy with red lips and white teeth handsome? Is a sturdy and strong man full of masculine power handsome? Is a freak in academics or a young genius handsome? Then again, am I handsome? It's too hard to choose, and there's a lot of controversy.

Unlike voting for the school beauty pageant, where the photos are put there, they are definitely more convincing in terms of public aesthetics. Women's photos can basically satisfy half of the men, so there is less controversy. But men's photos will definitely not satisfy half of the women, and there is too much controversy. "

"Then your school beauty contest hasn't started yet?" Xu Lin asked.

"It's not the right time yet. Don't you think about it? School has just started and I haven't even recognized everyone yet. I don't know what the names are. How can I choose? It's still the same as last year. Warm up in September, start at the end of October, and end at the end of November."

"Your campaign is great. Universities are expanding their enrollment. Regardless of whether you've played computers before or not, everyone who enters university has to register an account. There are millions of new registered users every year." Wang Ying said uncertainly, "Can it last for ten years?"

"Not that long. We are developing very fast. As computers become more popular, the age at which people start using computers will certainly get younger and younger. In the future, children may register an account while they are still in primary school. Even before that, there are already quite a few primary school yearbooks."

Lu Qianran raised her hand and said, "Boss Wang, I suddenly remembered something."

"You said."

"It's very easy to register a school on Zhiwo.com. Do you think someone will impersonate you, fill in random information, and join the group to deceive people?"

Wang Yan smiled and nodded, "Of course there are, there are quite a few. But few people like this can hide, unless they don't speak, otherwise they will be exposed in a few words. Moreover, the class has an accurate number of students, and we are already improving the information in this regard. Generally speaking, the yearbook is improved very quickly, and it won't take too long for the fake people to be discovered. We will ban the account, track the IP, and keep records."

Zhiwo.com accounts are randomly generated just like QQ numbers. There are no complicated registration steps and no need to bind a mobile phone number. After all, not many people have mobile phones at that time. Only those who receive coupons for consumption need to bind their ID cards, phone numbers, bank cards, etc.

"This kind of person is so boring." Lu Qianran said with a pout.

So a group of people started complaining about how shameless, scoundrel and abstract people were. In the end, they even thought that Wang Yan was the epitome of shamelessness and scoundrel.

"I can't believe that this is how I appear in your eyes." Wang Yan shook his head sadly.

"You are the most shameless. I have never seen anyone more shameless than you." Wang Ying snorted.

"Okay, I'm shameless."

Seeing everyone nodding, Wang Yan shook his head helplessly and said, "You all know about the magazine now. Edit the content later. If you need any photography, find my classmates. I have already told them and they are all willing to help me. Make an electronic version first and publish it on Zhiwo.com. We will study printing and publishing later."

"You don't think highly of physical magazines?" Wang Ying understood what he meant.

"I work in the Internet industry, so of course I believe in its potential. Which magazine has more than 10 million users nationwide? As long as 1% of people subscribe, that's 100,000 people. Magazines with less than 100,000 people can't be counted, but magazines with more than 100,000 people can be counted. Isn't the difference obvious?

But there are still quite a few people who like the texture and sense of ritual of actually holding the book in their hands and flipping through it. We consider the needs of users and will start paper subscriptions after we have gained popularity. This way the cost will be much lower.”

Wang Yan said, "I don't ask much of you. Just give it a try and make a version before the end of December. I have decided on a number of themes. You can choose what to do first and research how to do it. I will wait for your good news.

The finance department will come to work tomorrow. There are two million in the account, which is basically enough for you to pay for two years. Okay, that's all for now. We can communicate again if there are any problems in the future. Now, Qianxi, do you see the car parked in front of mine?"

Xiao Qianxi came over and stood by the window, looking at the car below, and nodded: "Well, what's wrong?"

"Go and try it." Wang Yan took out a bunch of keys and waved them in front of her. "It's not suitable to buy you a too good one, and it's not good to buy you a too bright color. Just make do with what you have for now."

"Are you really confident in me driving?" Xiao Qianxi held the keys.

"You drive well, don't you? It's an automatic transmission, and you have full insurance. Don't drive too fast, and know how to brake. There will be no problem at all. Let's go to that restaurant over there and have a meal. This beautiful day has come to an end, and you are about to start a new journey. Let's go."

A group of people came out of the shop chatting and laughing, locked the door, and Wang Ying and other female comrades got into Xiao Qianxi's car.

It was a Passat, with more space and more comfort. Of course, if we only talk about comfort, it is still not as good as the Santa Fe he drives.

After having lunch like this and saying goodbye to everyone, Wang Yan sat in the passenger seat while Xiao Qianxi drove to the hotel...

After the school started, everyone got busy. Xiao Qianxi and others were ambitious and gathered together for small meetings and research. Wang Ying also used her connections to invite the editor-in-chief of the magazine to teach them, from positioning to content, from topic selection to editing, from cost to profit and other aspects of knowledge.

Now that they are not at the science and technology park, Wang Yan feels much more at ease. Every day he is busy with various business promotions and the most important interviews and recruitments.

He now spends a considerable part of his time on expanding manpower. Zhiwo.com is now a large company, and the road to listing is not far away, and people are willing to submit resumes.

College students who want to work part-time at Zhiwo.com have to line up, and it's not like before that anyone can come. Of course, Wang Yan still retains a large number of work-study positions for poor students, all of which are field work. If they are asked to sit in an office, their professional ability is not enough to be competent.

On this day, Wang Yan was interviewing applicants at a company in the Science and Technology Park. After he finished interviewing one person, he saw Xie Qiao waving outside.

Seeing Wang Yan waving, Xie Qiao brought in a man and a woman.
"Wang Yan, did I bother you?" Xie Qiao greeted with a grin. "If you ask me if I bothered you after you've bothered me, then that's quite disturbing."

"Uh...I'm sorry..."

Wang Yan waved his hand: "Let's talk about the matter. There are a lot of people waiting for the interview outside."

"Oh, okay." Xie Qiao quickly pulled the man next to him and said, "Wang Yan, this is my childhood friend..."

"Brother Xiaochuaner?"

"It's me. My name is He Xiaozhou. I asked Qiao Qiao to take us to meet you." He Xiaozhou tilted his head and gestured to the woman next to him, "This is Li Nana, the president of the drama club."

"Hello, Wang Yan, I finally get to meet you in person today." Li Nana greeted him warmly.

Wang Yan nodded with a smile and asked, "Are you here to solicit sponsorship?"

"Yes, but it's not what Qiao Qiao meant. It's just that you are too busy and we can't see you, so..."

"It's okay." Wang Yan said, "I remember you are from the English Club, right?"

"Yes, I didn't expect you to know this."

"Xie Qiao used to talk about it all the time, and I just followed him." Seeing Xie Qiao glaring in anger, Wang Yan laughed, "How much do you want?"

"Wang Yan, does this mean that you sponsored it?" He Xiaozhou asked in surprise.

"Look at what you said. Xie Qiao is here, can I not give her some face? Even if I don't look at Xie Qiao, President Li is also a beauty. How can I let a beautiful woman come here for nothing?"

"You're really good at talking." Li Nana covered her mouth and laughed.

"I always tell the truth."

"Thank you for the compliment, then."

Wang Yanxiao asked, "Tell me the number."

"Our English club only needs 2,000 yuan," He Xiaozhou said. "When we recruit new members and hold club activities, we will put up advertisements for Zhiwo.com."

Li Nana followed up, "Our drama club needs 4,000 yuan to rent some clothes, make some props, and print some flyers. We will recruit new members, rehearse, perform, and there will be ads for Zhiwo.com on our flyers."

"Okay." Wang Yan nodded, took out a note from the handbag beside her, wrote the reason, signed her name, and handed it to Xie Qiao, "Go to the finance department to get the money. The slogan you put up should be the same one we have always used, Zhiwo.com, making life better."

"Okay." He Xiaozhou and Li Nana nodded at the same time.

Li Nana said, "Wang Yan, do you want to go and watch our performance?"

"talk to you later."

"Okay, we won't disturb you anymore. Goodbye." Li Nana said with some regret.

Wang Yan watched them leave and then continued the interview.

The company is expanding, and if nothing unexpected happens, he will have to interview for a long time. After all, it is not just the business in Beijing, but all the places in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, and Pearl River Delta are the main promotion areas, and the human resources allocation there must also keep up. He needs to recruit some management positions here, and then let these people go to other places to recruit people to form a team.

Half a month passed in a flash, and that afternoon, Wang Yan drove to Zhiwo Magazine near the school.

As soon as I entered, I saw five women busying around, and Qin Chuan was walking around pouring tea and water for them.

"Hey, Boss Wang is here." Qin Chuan greeted him exaggeratedly, "Hurry up and sit down. Have some tea."

Wang Yan nodded to the five girls as a greeting, then sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, looking at Qin Chuan suspiciously: "You have something to ask me?"

Qin Chuan sighed, "Look at what you said. If I ask you for help, I'll just call you brother-in-law. I admire you. You're so generous. You opened a magazine as soon as you said it would, and you poured millions of dollars into it. I admire you, I admire you."

"We've already agreed on this." Wang Yan sipped his tea and spat out the tea leaves. "To continue to enrich the content of the website, we should at least have a magazine. In addition, I also want to start a photography magazine and establish an authoritative photography award. It's not like I can just throw money at it.

Millions of dollars is not a small amount. Without a reasonable plan, investors will slam the table. The numbers sound big when investing, but when it comes to spending, there are many problems. Look at Comrade Fang. Although I pay her a salary, she is not my employee, but the financial officer of the investor.

The female accountant surnamed Fang looked over when she heard this, smiled and nodded to the surprised people, and then continued to play on her computer. She liked working here, with high salary, good benefits, few things to do, and no messy troubles...

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment; they didn't expect there was a outsider here.

Wang Yan smiled and waved his hands: "Don't be so repulsive, it's just normal financial supervision. She is not always here. She only stays here one day out of five. She is a serious old accountant. It's like using a cannon to kill a mosquito to do your accounting here."

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Wang." Finance Fang replied with a smile.

"You are dead?" Wang Yan looked at Qin Chuan.

"Ah, there aren't many people here this afternoon, so it's fine if Dalong is here alone. I'm here to serve the people."

"Dalong's child is in such a pity. It's not easy for you either."

"Hey, what's so difficult about it?" Qin Chuan pretended to be a stupid boy.

"Unrequited love."

"No... no, boss, stop talking nonsense..." Qin Chuan jumped up like a monkey, waving his hands repeatedly, glancing towards Xie Qiao.

"Only if you're right would you react so strongly." Xu Lin said in a gloomy tone, but his eyes were looking at Xie Qiao who didn't feel anything...

I would like to thank the good brothers who give rewards, vote for monthly tickets, recommend tickets and read books silently for their strong support!
