I will practice more in the United States

Chapter 195 Company establishment and subsequent development plans

The gift box was opened, revealing the orange packaging box inside.

Just seeing the shape of the box, Katina's roommate opened his mouth wide.

Because this orange has another name, it is Hermes orange.

This time, what Li Ang gave was not a fancy Hermès, but a genuine Hermès bag.

It can be said that gifts from this brand will never be out of place, no matter if they are given to celebrities, internet celebrities or rich girls.

Among many luxury brands, Hermès is completely unique and always stands at the top.

"This seems to be a Hermès Birkin. I remember it cost tens of thousands of dollars, right?"

Katina's roommate whispered to her best friend next to her with a sour look on her face.

But her best friend shook her head and told her:

"Not even close. Even though the price is so high, you can't actually buy the product directly in the store. You need to stock up on goods before you can get it."

"Distribution?"

"That is to say, if you want to buy this 10,000 yuan bag, you may need to buy a lot of miscellaneous cups, boxes, ornaments and other things worth thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan before the clerk will sell the bag to you. This means that you may have to pay double the price to buy the bag."

Katina's roommate felt even more jealous when he heard this.

Her boyfriend saved money for a whole year and bought her a basic LV bag. She showed off about it for a long time, but her boyfriend bought an Hermès bag. They are not even on the same level.

She suddenly felt that her boyfriend was so disappointing, and she also lost her confidence when she carried the bag.

Looking back, just now in class, she was still persuading Katrina not to find a boyfriend who was too poor and that she should learn more from her. She really didn't expect that she would be slapped in the face so quickly.

On the other hand, the dog who was waiting to see what gift Katina received was dumbfounded. Who would give Hermes directly to a college student? This made him lose the courage to compete.

He could only comfort himself that this kind of rich man must be just playing around and he was the only one who was sincere.

Katina had never thought that there would be a day when she would be able to carry an Hermès bag. Although the money she had saved was enough to buy an Hermès bag, spending all her money on a bag and buying a bag for daily use were two different things.

This thing is a consumable after all. It’s just like many people will spend one million to buy a house, but few people have the ability to spend one million to buy a car.

After the two exchanged greetings, Katina got into Li Ang's car. With the roar of the GTR, the two left the campus.

This made those who had originally doubted whether this bag was a fake completely give up.

The reason why Li Ang came to the campus to find Katina today and brought a valuable gift was that he wanted to support her. After all, he had heard Katina complain about her weird roommate more than once. She relied on having a boyfriend with a little money to show off in front of her every day.

Another reason is that Li Ang will arrange more work for her in the future, which may affect her studies, so it would be embarrassing not to give her a gift.

After dinner, Leon also told Katina about his follow-up plans and arrangements for her.

"I plan to set up a company later, mainly focusing on my own brand value as well as operations, advertising, investment and other aspects. However, it is only a prototype for now. The first department I plan to set up is the operations department, and I plan to let you be in charge of this part."

"Me? In charge of a department?"

Katina asked, pointing a finger at herself, looking incredulous.

Until a day ago, she was still learning various photography and editing techniques, hoping to become a competent operations assistant. Today, Li Ang actually informed her that she would be the head of the department.

"Yes, you don't have to feel too stressed. You are not the only one in charge of this department. I will soon recruit several professional editors, photographers, and operations staff. You just need to manage them well. This way, your tasks will be much lighter."

Li Ang continued.

It is not an exaggeration for him to prepare for this project now, and it can even be said that it is a little late.

In the current Internet field, it is very difficult to succeed simply by relying on high-quality content. No matter how good your content is, someone has to see it.

The popularity on the Internet can snowball. You may spend tens of thousands of dollars to market yourself today, and before long, you can earn tens of thousands of dollars every day.

When Katina heard this, she felt pressured. She was not a professional by birth and her work experience was limited to the few months she had spent with Leon. She was definitely not as good as those who made a living in this field.

It seems that I not only have to learn these professional knowledge, but also have to look at things related to management.

Li Ang gulped down most of the freshly squeezed orange juice and continued:
"In addition, I also plan to divide my account into several accounts. The current account has a lot of content, so I will mainly post some of my daily training. The second account will post my content in the field of comprehensive sports competitions, which is mainly related to cycling. The third account will post content related to traditional martial arts and fighting competitions, which will also be the focus of future development."

Today's Internet field is becoming more and more segmented. The hodgepodge at the beginning is not very desirable. After all, different audience groups like to watch different content. Dividing it into multiple accounts and forming a matrix is ​​the effective development trend.

Even Katina herself can open a separate account and post the daily work of a certain internet celebrity's assistant. If she is lucky, she may be able to attract a lot of fans.

After listening to Leon's plans, Katina nodded firmly and said that although her current abilities might not be sufficient, she would definitely study hard and shoulder her responsibilities.

In fact, the reason why Li Ang chose Katina to be the head of this department was not because of her strong ability, but because most department leaders really don’t need any ability. As long as the person is reliable enough, works steadily, is good at using people, and doesn’t make trouble, he can basically do the job.

And Katina just happens to possess all these qualities. She is trustworthy and serious about her work, which is completely sufficient.

"You agreed so quickly, don't you ask about the treatment?"

Leon looked at Katina playfully and said.

Katina shook her head and said nonchalantly:
"No matter what, the salary is higher than if I were to work on my own. Besides, many of my classmates are rushing to apply for internships in large companies without asking for money. I feel that I am already very satisfied to have this opportunity to be the head of a department."

Katina herself does not have much ambition and is of a calm and simple nature, so in her opinion, this position alone is already a very good treatment.

Li Ang shook his head helplessly and said to her: "As a veteran employee of the company, I plan to give you 5% of the original shares. In addition, your salary will be increased by 50% based on the same type and level of positions in the market."

"What? 5%?"

Katina's sudden increase in volume made everyone else in the restaurant look over.

However, most people looked at them with disdain.

It is clearly a makeshift team of only two people, but they talk like a listed group.

In the eyes of most people, let alone growing and becoming bigger, being able to survive for half a year without going bankrupt is already good enough.

Katina also blushed slightly. She lowered her voice and continued:

"No, no, 5% is too much."

Although her previous salary was 5% of the income of Li Ang's account, which seemed to be reduced, 10% of the shares of the entire operating company and % of the income of an account are completely different concepts.

If the company grows bigger in the future, she will also be a member of the company's board of directors, which is a true senior leader. You should know that many CEOs of large companies do not necessarily own 5% of the original shares.

She has always been aware of Li Ang's strength. Although he is not well-known at the moment, it is foreseeable that in the near future, the value of his name alone may be enough to rival that of a large company.

What's more, Li Ang also offered her a salary for the position, which was 50% higher than the same position on the market. According to the current market conditions, the monthly salary would be several thousand or even tens of thousands. As far as she knew, even the best among her seniors in the same school might not be able to reach such a level and get such a salary ten years after graduation.

"Just take it if it's given to you. If you think it's too much, then work hard until you feel that this is what you deserve."

Although Li Ang said it in a joking manner, his tone was unquestionable.

If he wasn't worried that the starting point was too high, he would even want to give her 10% of the original shares.

He himself has never focused too much on starting a company and making money, or rather, making money can only be considered as his side job, the purpose of which is to assist him in practicing better.

Not to mention other things, just some extreme sports such as skydiving, wing suit flying, climbing, racing, etc. are extremely expensive. Li Ang does not want money to become an obstacle that restricts him in the future.

The reason why Li Ang suddenly thought of starting a company was because of his upcoming UFC debut. Although he was only participating as a newcomer, the popularity of this competition was higher than all the competitions he had participated in before combined. It was completely on a different level.

Take the slapping competition for example. Although he has won the world championship, this is just a very small niche sport after all. It is far different from the popularity of events like boxing and mixed martial arts.

Therefore, the small amount of traffic in the front is wasted, but from now on, the subsequent traffic is not a small amount of money.

After determining the core tasks, the remaining specific matters can be completed by spending money, whether it is the process of starting a company, recruiting people, financial audits, or legal advice. These things can be done extremely conveniently and quickly as long as you spend money.

After returning home, Li Ang also gave Sheila a bag of the same style, but chose black as a color that better matched Sheila's style. After all, he wanted to treat everyone equally.

In return, Sheila also took him to unlock some new postures.

In fact, he bought three such bags in total, and it was Fremea who brought him along. She was the most distinguished customer in the store. It was no exaggeration to say that she supported the entire store by herself. Naturally, she didn't need to match the bags she bought.

Li Ang gave the third bag to his high school class teacher. The two had not seen each other for a long time, and Li Ang was kept by her fanatical teacher to sleep with him for the whole night. If it were not for Li Ang's strong physique, it would have been difficult for him to resist the oppression of two ferocious young women in one day.

Needless to say, the next day, Charles would cheer again, saying that today was a good day and that the evil head teacher had taken another day off.

In addition, Le Ang also gave some souvenirs to several neighbors who had always been very kind to him. They were all practical. He gave Charles a bunch of "3A masterpieces" on Steam. For a time, Le Ang completely became the "other people's child" in their community.

After finishing his work here, Li Ang also rushed to the location of his "first show" with his newly formed team.

Although the salary offered by Li Ang was quite good, the people he finally recruited were not professionals who could stand on their own.

The main reason is that most experienced people will not choose to join such a small start-up company. Although the salary seems good, who knows how long it can last? It may go bankrupt within two months.

Among them, the one with the longest working experience, which is only four years, is Katina’s senior, Louise Hurst.

I used to work for an MCN agency, but because of bad luck and my boss's delay in paying my wages, I had been planning to change jobs.

Speaking of which, this senior was also a well-known figure in school before and was very capable, but after entering the society, she still did not live up to her expectations. This made Katina cherish the opportunities that Li Ang provided her even more.

This time, Louise Hearst joined their company out of trust in her junior schoolmate and the salary offered by Leon that was higher than the industry average.

But she was still a little worried, afraid that this innocent little girl of hers had been deceived by others.

Especially when he found out that his new boss was not even 18 years old, he seemed even more unreliable.

She had already decided that if the situation got bad, she would run away with her junior high school sister. The worst that could happen would be that she would just waste some time.

The other two employees also only have two or three years of work experience, but these people have been personally screened by Katina. Although their work experience is not rich, their abilities are not bad. They are also young and motivated, which makes them a good fit for their startup company.

This small team had just started working for two days, and the first task they received was to go on a business trip out of town, and the trip lasted for more than just one or two days.

This kind of long-distance business trip is not an easy job. Generally, there are travel allowances. Of course, they don’t expect this small company to have such benefits.

Just when they thought they had discovered why this company offered higher salaries, they realized that their means of transportation was not the same junky car as before, but an airplane.

Not to mention, after they arrived at the airport to check in, they found out that the tickets for these ordinary employees were also business class!
Although this gave them a certain understanding of the company's financial resources, Louise Hester's expression was still not very good.

When she just graduated from college, she and several classmates tried to start a business, but it soon ended in failure. Although she did not achieve any results, she did accumulate some experience and know the pitfalls of starting a business.

For example, in terms of funds, even if you have sufficient funds, you still have to be careful with your budget. I don’t know how many startups have died due to broken capital chains.

She had already suggested this to Katina, hoping that she would tell her boss that for this kind of trip, even if they had to take a plane, economy class would be more than enough.

After they landed, they were dumbfounded when they saw the luxury business car sent by the five-star hotel to pick them up. How could a startup company open a five-star hotel for its employees?
