Chapter 310 Boss, one please! (6k subscriptions requested)

As Lü Yao's company became more formalized, its various management systems gradually improved. This led to the existence of departmental silos to some extent, but compared to the advantages of the management mechanism, the disadvantages of departmental silos were not so significant.

Lü Yao has been actively seeking a solution outside of existing management mechanisms to break down departmental silos, maintain interdepartmental communication and employee promotion opportunities, thereby ensuring the company's vitality.

The consequence of this is that Lü Yao himself must often be on the front lines, constantly maintaining a deep understanding of the company.

Doing this is actually very tiring.

While the company's sound management system saved Lü Yao a lot of trouble, it also required him to stay active at all times.

But this is already the best solution.

Just like Mr. Zhang of ByteDance, Mr. Lei of Xiaomi, and Mr. Xiaopeng of XPeng Motors, their companies have grown very large, but they still always stand at the forefront of their companies.

ByteDance's CEO Zhang controls the company's most important algorithm, Xiaomi's CEO Lei Jun became the core asset of the Xiaomi Group, and XPeng Motors' CEO Xiaopeng, after suffering losses as a boss, learned from his mistakes and transformed into CEO, successfully pulling XPeng Motors back from the brink of collapse.

So even though he's very tired right now, Lü Yao is still sticking to this management method because this method has already been tested and verified by the teacher "Future".

As the company's management system gradually improved, it became more difficult for outsiders to see Lü Yao again.

Appointments are usually required.

However, Rong Nianqing was on Lü Yao's company's whitelist.

The whitelist means that she can enter the company building and freely access the company's public areas at any time by scanning her face.

Of course, some particularly important places are still off-limits.

Rong Nianqing and the others wouldn't go into those places.

After Rong Nianqing arrived at Lü Yao's company, she asked a few people to find Lü Yao's current location. Then, without alerting anyone, she crept over and found Lü Yao in the common office area of ​​the "PUBG" project team. Lü Yao was with a group of technicians and planners.

Although Lü Yao was the youngest person present, many people surrounded him, listening to him speak eloquently. And most of them looked convinced.

Rong Nianqing found it interesting, so she leaned against the doorway and watched for a while.

It wasn't until Lü Yao finished speaking and stood up straight to stretch his upper body that he suddenly realized Rong Nianqing had quietly crept to the doorway.

Lu Yao was startled and immediately said, "Oh! President Rong, what brings you here?"

He immediately abandoned the project team: "Alright, that's all for today. You guys hurry up and put the ideas we've discussed into practice."

As he spoke, Lü Yao approached Rong Nianqing and said, "Let's talk in my office."

Rong Nianqing followed Lü Yao back to the office. After sitting down on the sofa in the reception area, she smiled and said, "I didn't realize you were so professional. I listened for a while and I thought you were a professional game design graduate."

Lu Yao shook his head and laughed, "There aren't any decent game design majors in China. Even the number of universities that offer such majors is pitifully small."

"Our company's chief planner, Feng Ji, studied biomedical engineering in college. After graduation, he became addicted to online games and couldn't extricate himself. Then, because he couldn't stand the domestic game environment, he resolutely joined an online game company and became a game planner."

Those who later achieved some success in China were basically driven by their love for games and their desire to change the gaming industry.

That's how Feng Ji is.

Yao Qiguang was the same.

As for those who graduate from business schools, management schools, or communications and marketing programs, they have no passion for games and only think about short-term monetization, which makes them particularly prone to ruining a game.

Such examples abound.

While making tea for Rong Nianqing, Lü Yao complained about the domestic game business environment. Finally, he concluded: "In the end, besides gameplay and production technology, the most important thing about games is empathy. If the goal is to quickly empty players' pockets, then the game won't last long."

"I'm just thinking about things from the players' perspective."

Lu Yao handed the brewed tea to Rong Nianqing and said with a smile, "Here, have some tea."

Rong Nianqing smiled and said, "What you just said sounds simple, but it's very difficult to do. Even if you succeed in a short time, maintaining it is another very difficult thing."

This is also why many large corporations experience a sharp decline in their business performance once a new leader takes over.

Lu Yao understood what Rong Nianqing was saying, of course. Wahaha and Lao Gan Ma were just like that later on.

Even if relevant management rules and regulations are established, it cannot prevent these changes from occurring, because rules and regulations are inanimate, while those in power are alive and will try every means to distort and circumvent what has been established.

So Lü Yao laughed and said, "Well, you're in a position, so do your job. President Rong, you didn't come here just to chat with me, did you?"

Rong Nianqing smiled and said, "Li Rongzhen has returned to China."

Lu Yao said, "I know, Sister Jian told me that, and she even asked me to go and deliver it."

Rong Nianqing pursed her lips and smiled, "Yes, you should go and see me off. I know you did this to put my mind at ease, but Lü Yao, I trust you completely, especially."

With her sharp mind, how could she not understand why Lü Yao did this? Considering how deeply Lü Yao was bound to her side, yet still had to do something like this to avoid suspicion, Rong Nianqing felt a little distant.

Lu Yao chuckled and said, "One reason is that I'm quite busy, and the other is... I'm genuinely a little afraid of Li Rongzhen. That's why I'm trying to minimize contact with her."

He didn't say it was to avoid suspicion in front of Rong Nianqing.

Although Lü Yao did have this intention, it would be pointless for him to continue the conversation now that Rong Nianqing had already brought it up directly.

Lu Yao continued, "Li Rongzhen talked to me about how to handle the child's issue before. She actually offered to send the child over often so that he could get closer to us. It sounds like she's doing this for my own good, but there's a lot of trouble involved. It's my first time being a father, and I didn't understand it at first. It wasn't until I talked to Sister Jian that I realized how deep the water was."

Rong Nianqing smiled.

She had probably heard Jian Xiaojie mention this, but she hadn't really taken it to heart.

Because this kind of operation is too common in families like theirs, their upbringing has made them see this kind of family stuff all the time, so they can see right through Li Rongzhen's schemes at a glance.

I never expected that Lü Yao would care so much about this.

This is something Jian Xiaojie didn't tell Rong Nianqing. It's not that Jian Xiaojie was keeping it a secret, but rather that they would be very careful and deliberate about things that concern a man's dignity.

After talking with Lü Yao, Rong Nianqing felt relieved.

As a result, I felt refreshed and invigorated.

Rong Nianqing advised, "However, you should still try to stay in touch with Li Rongzhen more. We can help you if you don't know what to do. Family education is also a very important investment in the inheritance of a family."

Within their circle, this type of investment is referred to as "soft asset investment," which mainly focuses on education and the development of the next generation.

This is a key resource that won't appear on the balance sheet, but it determines whether you can freely enter or be reused in certain situations. In this respect, the differences between domestic and foreign countries are not that significant.

It is also an important indicator for assessing a family's heritage and strength.

Lü Yao took Rong Nianqing's words to heart.

Because he actually saw relevant real-life examples in the future, such as the Wang family, who are now the richest family. Their "soft asset investment" was a failure, and Wang Gongzi's subsequent behavior put him in an awkward position where he was looked down upon by both wealthy and poor families.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that their family started to prosper too late and had very little accumulated wealth.

Later, it collapsed without warning.

Those who are successful in this circle in terms of "soft asset investment" rarely appear in the public eye after securing key positions by leveraging their personal connections. Instead, they use these "key positions" as a center to continuously expand their influence outwards, thus quietly working to build and contribute to the future of their families.

In a long-standing family, there are bound to be many people working together in different fields. No one is particularly important, and no one is indispensable.

In this respect, the top wealthy families in China do a very good job, and Rong Nianqing's family is an example of this.

Therefore, to some extent, the "soft asset investment" of the Silla Samsung Group was also a failure, because the successor cultivated by the former head of Samsung was practically useless, and the outstanding Lee Yong-jin was unable to lie low and endure for the development of the family.

Ok……

If he had such a useless older brother, Lü Yao would definitely be unwilling to accept it.

Just like Emperor Yongle, when Crown Prince Zhu Biao was still alive, he had no rebellious intentions at all. He just wanted to be a good prince guarding the border and a good pawn for his good elder brother. If Zhu Yuanzhang had secretly summoned Zhu Xiaosi and said that he wanted to pass the throne to Zhu Di, Zhu Di might have turned around and found Zhu Biao and said, "Our father has gone mad. Let's start a rebellion."

But when the emperor was replaced by that good-for-nothing Zhu Yunwen... then we'll have to really analyze this thoroughly.

Lü Yao could understand Li Rongzhen.

Unfortunately, Lee Yong-jin was a woman, and one who lived in Silla.

It's a pity too.

Lu Yao himself lacks experience in "soft asset investment". After all, given his family background, he could not possibly acquire the knowledge and experience in this area. Even during his time studying abroad, he never came into contact with any information in this field.

After all, very few of the people he hangs out with are from Rong Nianqing's social circle.

But now, Rong Nianqing is willing to pass on her experience in these areas to Lü Yao.

Rong Nianqing smiled and said, "I will help you deal with Li Rongzhen's child, but you can't keep hiding forever. As for Sister Shu's child, don't worry about his future."

Education in this area is already quite mature.

Lu Yao realized that today's seemingly ordinary conversation was actually the foundation for the birth of his family for the next hundred or even several hundred years.

It's so important.

So much so that after Lü Yao realized what was happening, he felt the burden on his shoulders had become even heavier.

But instead of trying to avoid it, he nodded earnestly and said, "Okay, I will definitely study hard." When someone is guiding you, no matter how difficult it is, you must seize the opportunity, because it is very likely to be one of the few opportunities you will have in your life. Therefore, Lü Yao cherished the opportunity that Rong Nianqing brought him.

Rong Nianqing smiled and said, "Okay, I'll head back now. You can continue with your work."

Lu Yao escorted Rong Nianqing all the way downstairs, and only stopped her after she strongly declined.

"call--"

Watching Rong Nianqing's car drive away, Lü Yao couldn't help but exhale a sigh of relief.

Before he knew it, he had started to worry about having children and even the continuation of the family line.

In fact, he had been worrying about this for a while, but Lu Yao had always been thinking about how to leave a way out for himself and the people around him. He never thought about passing on his bloodline as a cause that would last for hundreds or even thousands of years.

This is the difference in perspective.

Lu Yao patted his face, inwardly warning himself, "There's still so much to learn!"

……

After talking with Rong Nianqing, Lü Yao then chatted with Jian Xiaojie and Rong Nianqing to learn how to handle this kind of situation. He then had a video chat with Li Rongzhen, explaining his previous absence from both an objective and subjective perspective, which helped alleviate much of Li Rongzhen's inner turmoil.

A few days later, Children's Day arrived.

Children's Day was originally a holiday given to children by the state and schools. However, as the domestic economy has improved, young people have become increasingly self-centered. Apart from Qingming Festival, other holidays seem to have become holidays for them to enjoy themselves.

Influenced by businesses and the growing trend of female "awakening," every holiday has become a day for consumption and even hotel bookings.

Children's Day is no exception.

They just want to celebrate Children's Day, and things that are inappropriate for children should be done after the celebration.

Lu Yao really enjoys holidays because they are a legitimate opportunity to flirt with girls. Lu Yao even remembers one Children's Day when he was the "dad" of several girls for several hours.

Even though he is now focused on starting his own business, Lü Yao still loves holidays because he can launch related activities to make money during holidays.

The key point is that many people are eager to give this money.

They call it "rewarding themselves."

So Lu Yao wasn't lying when he chatted with Rong Nianqing before. He was really busy with all sorts of planning. He was busy with event planning for the game and voice chat platform, and he even planned today's live broadcast event for the MCN.

The results of taking the time to care were gratifying.

On Children's Day, June 1st, many games under Guang'an Network Games Company saw a surge in recharges during the day. Guang'an's "Honor of Kings", "Shoot the Shooter", and "PUBG" offered a limited-time Children's Day special skin series called "Childlike Innocence" for 6.1 yuan.

These skin designs were proposed by the company in early May, with the requirement that they be of high quality and not just shoddy.

The skin costing 6.1 yuan has effects that are completely comparable to epic skins.

The special effects, the feel, and the design are all very well done.

Once this discount period ends, the prices of these skins will naturally return to the levels of epic skins.

Therefore, after a week of pre-release hype, the "Childlike Innocence" series of skins was met with enthusiastic demand from players. Within just half a day, the three games under Guang'an Network Games Company generated over 100 million RMB in revenue.

Simultaneously.

Voice chat software is also seeing frequent successes from MCNs.

The voice chat software broke its three-month peak in recharge revenue, and Xiao Tuantuan, who was poached by Gao Chuning and Lü Yao from the MCN agency, also broke today's revenue record, becoming today's top seller.

So on June 1st, in order to boost morale, Lü Yao specially called out everyone in the company to hold separate parties to celebrate.

The college entrance examination is just around the corner.

After the National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao), more than nine million prospective college students will flock to the internet, while nearly thirty million first- and second-year high school students will also begin using the internet, and more than forty million college students will enjoy a long summer vacation.

Apart from the college students who are about to graduate and do internships, students from other grades will flock to the internet, bringing in revenue comparable to that of the Spring Festival.

Therefore, all the internet-related companies under Lü Yao's name need to prepare for the summer vacation.

What follows will be two months of intense work, and before we get into this phase, we need to really boost morale.

So at the Children's Day party, Lü Yao provided plenty of good wine and food. When the party was almost over, Lü Yao personally took charge of distributing "year-end bonuses" to everyone.

When it comes to boosting morale, nothing is more inspiring than cash.

After distributing year-end bonuses at the Guang'an Network Games company, Lü Yao handed over the arrangements for the upcoming events to Zhu Junyan, and then rushed to the MCN's gala.

Because he was delayed for a while at the party at Guang'an Network Games, by the time Lü Yao arrived at the MCN company's party, they were already in the second half of the party. They were a group of talented singers and dancers, and the scene when they got together was much more exciting than Guang'an's annual party.

The banquet hall was transformed into a disco dance floor and a brothel courtyard by these livestreamers.

Even the DJs are from the MCN company itself.

When Lu Yao arrived, Gao Chuning, the top salesperson of the day, became exceptionally arrogant.

To celebrate Children's Day, Gao Chuning changed into a short skirt school uniform. With her already childlike face, Gao Chuning, dressed in a Japanese-style middle school outfit, exuded a captivating charm that instantly won over many young girls in 2016.

However, she herself is quite boisterous, so the live stream visuals during game broadcasts are truly spectacular.

Although Xiao Tuantuan, who partnered with Gao Chuning in the live stream, did not appear on screen, her voice was so distinctive and she was so witty, so the live stream was full of fun.

These two clowns together are a perfect match for Children's Day.

Gao Chuning, who had become today's top salesperson, was extremely arrogant. Upon seeing Lü Yao arrive, she jumped onto the stage, put her hands on her hips, and said, "Boss! What's wrong with you? How can you be late?"

OK OK.

You're the top salesperson today, so I won't hold it against you.

Thinking this to himself, Lü Yao then, without flinching, said after everyone's eyes were on him, "Okay, okay, it's my fault. I didn't manage my time well. I'll punish myself with three drinks, okay?"

But Gao Chuning wouldn't have it. Holding the microphone, she said, "Wow! You're already late and you still want to freeload?"

Lü Yao was utterly speechless.

Tonight's party expenses were all paid from my company's account, okay? What do you mean I'm here to freeload? This guy's thought process is absolutely hilarious to Lu Yao.

But when Gao Chuning got into a tantrum, she didn't care about anyone's feelings. She said with ill intent, "Boss, why don't you perform a talent? It'll be good to share some fun with everyone tonight!"

This request is actually inappropriate.

Despite her outrageous behavior, Gao Chuning still has some emotional intelligence. So after she finished speaking, she jumped off the stage, rushed to Lü Yao, and pitifully tugged at his clothes, shaking them back and forth: "Please~~"

Please! Everyone wants to see the boss's talents!

Perhaps the wine tonight really enhanced the atmosphere.

Perhaps the atmosphere tonight is just right.

In short, at Gao Chuning's urging, cheers gradually began to rise from the scene: "Boss, give us one!"

"Boss, one please!"

Many of the artists signed with MCNs have heard stories about their bosses working in nightclubs before they became successful. It's quite a contrast that a man who once worked in nightclubs has become so unapproachable!

Therefore, many people were there out of curiosity and a desire to see their boss's talents.

Amidst the increasingly heated atmosphere of jeering, Lü Yao looked at Gao Chuning in front of him with a sense of helplessness.

When it comes to stirring up trouble, if she's second, then no one in the company can claim to be first. But her appearance is just too deceptive, and she has a great grasp of the atmosphere and timing. Moreover, she was one of the first people to start the business with Lü Yao, so Lü Yao really can't take her seriously.

But every creature has its nemesis. Seeing that Gao Chuning was taking the lead, Cheng Xinyu's expression gradually turned cold. She pushed through the crowd and came to Lu Yao's side. Gao Chuning, who had been acting all cute and pitiful, immediately shrank back and tried to slip away.

But Lü Yao stopped Cheng Xinyu with a look.

The atmosphere is great right now, and morale is high. It wouldn't be wise to dampen everyone's enthusiasm directly.

However, we cannot let these people succeed easily, as that would damage Lü Yao's prestige in the company.

Therefore, Lü Yao planned to shift the blame elsewhere.

So Lü Yao took the microphone from Gao Chuning, walked onto the stage and said, "It seems everyone had a great time tonight, so I can't spoil the fun. But, my current worth is different from before, it's very expensive."

"Originally, I prepared two gifts for our top salesperson."

As he spoke, Lü Yao beckoned, and his assistant, who had come with him, brought over Lü Yao's briefcase. Lü Yao then took out two jewelry boxes from the briefcase and opened them.

In each of the two jewelry boxes lay a glittering gold necklace inlaid with green jade.

This necklace is extraordinary in terms of design, craftsmanship, and materials; it's worth at least tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands!
As soon as the two exquisitely designed and crafted necklaces were displayed, the female artists present were instantly captivated, even their souls were drawn to them... Women are like dragons in Western mythology, filled with a possessive desire for all things shiny and precious.

These two necklaces!
They want it!!
Lu Yao, holding the jewelry box, asked Gao Chuning and Xiao Tuantuan, "If you want to see my talent, I can't give you these two rewards."

"Want to watch again?"
