Can following the rules be called rebirth?

Chapter 308, Section 306: Before Leaving the Job
While the two sisters were agonizing over a pen, Zhou Mingyuan was equally busy.

The end of the year and the beginning of the new year is a crucial time for all tasks to climb uphill, sprint forward, and summarize and improve.

The same applies to Jieyou Media at this moment.

Shen Yunrong sat at her workstation, her gaze sweeping over the three monitor screens in front of her.

The leftmost panel displays the interface of the communication software, with conversations constantly popping up from various operations teams, their words filled with anxiety.

The main screen in the middle shows the handover documents she is organizing, clearly organized and logically structured.

The rightmost screen displays the company's livestreamer revenue and public opinion monitoring data for the past month.

The up-and-down S-shaped curves rise and fall like mountains.

Today is the third to last day since she left Jieyou Media.

She picked up the slightly cooled coffee on the table, took a small sip, and the bitter taste spread across her tongue, which ironically made her even more awake.

As one of the earliest mentors of Jieyou Media, from the company's early days with only a handful of employees to its current status of occupying half a floor of an office building and having a plethora of anchors under its wing, Shen Yunrong is more like a witness to its growth.

"Sister Yun."

A slightly reserved voice sounded beside her.

Shen Yunrong looked up and saw a young girl wearing black-rimmed glasses standing next to her, holding a brand-new notebook in her hands, her eyes showing obvious nervousness.

This is her apprentice, Sun Jia, whom she personally trained.

Sun Jia, who had just graduated from university, was the person she strongly recommended to her boss and personally interviewed, who was to succeed her as the head of the event management team.

"coming?"

Shen Yunrong smiled gently and pointed to the empty chair next to her.

"Sit down. Today I'll go over the last part of the core resources with you."

Sun Jia quickly sat down, opened her notebook, and looked serious.

"Sister Yun, you're leaving so soon. I'm a little worried. I'm afraid I won't do a good job."

Shen Yunrong looked at her and felt as if she were seeing herself before she started working.

Instead of offering direct comfort, she scrolled down a page of the document on the middle screen.

"Whether we do well or not depends not on worrying, but on preparation. Let's first make sure we understand what we need to sort out today."

The document's title is very eye-catching.

—"Core Workflow and Emergency Response Plan for Site Control Supervisor V3.2".

"Your job, simply put, is like that of a conductor of a symphony orchestra."

Shen Yunrong smiled and said, "You don't need to be able to play every instrument, but you must know when to play which instrument, when to stop, and how to guide the orchestra to continue playing in case of an accident, instead of falling into chaos."

She used the mouse to open a folder, which contained numerous subfolders and documents.

"These are your most important arsenal for the future."

"The first part is the anchor's profile and risk assessment."

She opened a table titled "Anchor Ranking and Characteristic Analysis".

"The company currently has nearly 100 active live streamers. We categorize them into four levels: S, A, B, and C, based on four dimensions: traffic, stability, cooperation, and potential risks."

“S-level staff are the pillars of the company. For example, Teacher Uno, whose stage management I used to be personally in charge of.”

"Your work will then mainly revolve around her, coordinating resources and ensuring everything goes smoothly."

"The real focus and difficulty lie with these A-level and B-level anchors."

Her finger traced over several names highlighted in yellow.

"These streamers have potential, but there's also uncertainty, especially recently."

Shen Yunrong paused, her words carrying a hidden meaning.

"Their risk level needs to be dynamically assessed and closely monitored due to the lure of high external profits."

Sun Jiafei quickly took notes, then couldn't help but look up and ask.

"Sister Yun, is it like this business order incident?"

Shen Yunrong did not answer directly, but instead clicked on another chart.

Pie chart analyzing the sources and types of the company's orders over the past three months.

"Look here."

"Normally, our business deals should be negotiated by the company."

"For example, the structure of fields such as games, beauty and fast-moving consumer goods, or clothing is healthy."

"But recently..."

She circled a conspicuous red area with her mouse.

"This portion has surged, and the vast majority of it comes from promotions by financial exchanges."

What do you think it means?

Sun Jia thought for a moment and tentatively replied, "Does that mean many streamers are taking orders privately?"

"Yes."

Shen Yunrong nodded, resting her chin on her hand, her gaze solemn.

"That's not the worst part."

"The most frightening thing is that this practice of taking orders privately has spread internally like a virus, even creating the illusion that the law can't punish everyone."

"The company's management's initial ambiguous attitude and slow response further fueled this trend."

As one of the first, and possibly even the first, victims of the "pig butchering scam" nationwide, Shen Yunrong has an absolute aversion to the term "financial investment."

Once bitten, twice shy.

Her voice was calm, but her words were like a scalpel, precisely dissecting everything that was happening in the company.

Sun Jia's palms were sweating as he listened.

She finally realized firsthand just how complex and challenging the situation she was about to take over was.

Just then, a considerable commotion arose at the other end of the office area.

The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw a streamer from a gaming section arguing impatiently with his manager.

Although he tried to keep his voice down, his excitement still drew a lot of attention.

"What does the new regulation mean? Why can't I accept it?"

"Other companies' streamers are all accepting these offers, why can't we?"

"It's absurd that someone could cut off their livelihood with just one sentence from above!"

"Brother, keep your voice down. Assistant He said it's company policy."

The operator's face flushed with anxiety. She looked around and kept tugging at the man's sleeve, afraid of triggering a chain reaction.

"Rules? Rules are inanimate! Do you know how much the platform is offering? Enough for me to keep streaming here for half a year!"

"Hold!"

"."

Shen Yunrong withdrew her gaze, her face showing no surprise, and simply turned her head away.

"see it?"

"When faced with interests, rules and the spirit of contracts become extremely vulnerable."

She took off her glasses, wiped them, and began to speak.

"As the live stream manager, you not only need to pay attention to the comments and pace of the live stream, but also to the mindset and emotions of the streamers."

"This kind of internal discontent and unrest is more destructive than any online trolls' malicious comments."

Sun Jia watched the other person's angry departure, nodded vigorously, jotted down the keywords in her notebook, and underlined them twice. Shen Yunrong didn't stop and continued her handover.

She opened the second folder.

—Crisis public relations plan and execution process.

It contains dozens of emergency plans for different scenarios.

From inappropriate remarks made by the streamer during the live broadcast, to handling platform technical malfunctions, from vicious infighting among fan groups to dealing with negative media reports, the details are astonishing.

"This set of things, the company hasn't actually encountered that many times, it's something I summarized myself."

Shen Yunrong crossed her arms and sighed.

“Before, I was a university teacher, living in an ivory tower, and I always felt that crises and competition were far away from me, but I don’t think so now.”

With a slight adjustment of the mouse, Shen Yunrong opened a template file titled "[Emergency Handling of XX Business Order Defaults]".

"This template was designed by me recently based on possible scenarios."

"It may not work, and it may not be used at all, because I think Mr. Zhou must have a backup plan."

"So I'm just sharing some random thoughts with you, hoping to spark some discussion."

"Once a certain type of platform's merchant order goes wrong, or if fans lose money and come to us for redress, the company needs to react immediately."

"The first step is to use technical means to block all relevant live stream replays and promotional links to prevent the situation from escalating; the second step is to monitor public opinion and comprehensively track the public opinion trends on major platforms; the third step is to communicate internally to stabilize the emotions of other streamers and unify the external narrative."

"Finally, we will issue a public statement to sever ties promptly and pursue legal action."

“These steps are interconnected. If one step is delayed or wrong, it may cause irreparable damage to the company.”

"."

Sun Jia listened in a daze, looking at the detailed steps and the pre-prepared statement, and couldn't help but become curious.

"Sister Yun, you're being way too cautious."

"Do I need to worry about so many things when taking orders from businesses?"

Shen Yunrong remained silent for a moment, then turned her gaze to the misty clouds outside the window.

"It's not out of concern, but a judgment based on common sense and risk."

"When something seems too good to be true, it usually isn't true."

"You may not know this, but the prices offered by those exchanges are practically giving away money, which doesn't make any sense in a normal business sense."

"Besides, our boss who solves problems never gets up early for nothing. If there's money to be made, why wouldn't he make it?"

Shen Yunrong's lips curled up slightly.

For the rest of the time, Shen Yunrong took Sun Jia on a tour of the company.

The handover process begins, and it is the final and most important part.

Get to know them.

Shen Yunrong opened her contacts and told Sun Jia the contact information, personality traits, and communication tips for several key figures in the company.

"It's all clearly written in black and white in the contract. You didn't read it carefully back then, what does that have to do with the company?"

As they passed the conference room, the two saw He Min and several men in suits sitting upright inside.

Through the half-open door, words like "lawsuit," "evidence collection," and "penalty for breach of contract" could be faintly heard.

"Don't try to play the emotional card with me. The company has been very lenient with you, and look what happened!"

Even Shen Yunrong was seeing this side of He Min for the first time.

So sharp and uncompromising, so utterly uncompromising.

"see it?"

Shen Yunrong pulled Sun Jia to a corner and whispered something.

"A storm is coming, and the company's response has already begun."

“Taking over at this time will put some pressure on you, but it will also be an excellent opportunity to learn and grow.”

"Remember, no matter how fast the pace is, the core responsibility of the moderator must not be disrupted. Ensure the stable operation of the live broadcast room and maintain the basic support of the streamer and fans."

The sky darkened without us realizing it, the wind was still blowing outside the window, and the office lights came on one by one.

When Shen Yunrong returned to her workstation, the handover was nearing its end.

"Alright, that's about all I can teach you."

Shen Yunrong shut down her computer and tidied up her desktop.

"In the future, if you encounter any problems that you cannot solve, do not try to tough it out; communicate with your superiors in a timely manner."

"Sister Yun, I'll miss you so much."

"I have learned so much from following you during this time."

Sun Jia looked up from the densely filled notes in her notebook, gazed at Shen Yunrong's face, and drawled out her words.

"How about I treat you to dinner tonight?"

"Let's do it another day. I have something to do tonight."

Shen Yunrong patted her shoulder, put away the small mirror on the table, looked at her reflection in the mirror, and shook her head.

"You're all dressed up so beautifully today, are you going on a date, Sister Yun?"

Compared to many of his colleagues at Nanhu University, Sun Jia and Shen Yunrong were clearly not distant from each other, nor did they have any air of respect for teachers. They could also joke around without hesitation.

"Stop talking so much."

A blush crept onto Shen Yunrong's jade-like earlobe.

She didn't answer directly, but instead curved her lips into a subtle smile.

Now that she had been seen through, she stopped trying to hide it and simply held the mirror in her hands to examine her appearance one last time, making sure that every detail was impeccable.

She was indeed quite different tonight than usual.

Her usual neat professional updo was gone, replaced by a head of smooth, shoulder-length curly hair cascading down her back.

The hair on the left side is tucked behind the ear, revealing the graceful lines of the neck and a perfectly placed pearl earring, while the hair on the other side hangs naturally, framing the face and adding a touch of casual and charming languid style.

Needless to say, their outfits are another story.

This is a high-quality V-neck cashmere knit sweater in a light oatmeal color that is almost white.

The soft cashmere fabric perfectly accentuated Shen Yunrong's enviable curves.

The V-neck design showcases delicate collarbones and a small patch of fair skin, exuding elegance with a touch of sexiness.

Pair it with high-waisted straight-leg trousers with a crisp crease and excellent drape, which both flatters the hips and elongates the body proportions.

After tidying up, Shen Yunrong stood up and paused in front of the glass partition in the office, using the reflection to check her condition once again.

The woman in the mirror has bright, beautiful eyes, a gentle demeanor, and exudes a natural charm.

She took a deep breath, picked up her handbag, glanced one last time at the account that had been handed over on the screen, and waved to Sun Jia with a smile.

"I'm leaving first."

"Okay, Sister Yun~"

Sun Jia watched Shen Yunrong's departing figure, swaying gracefully in the winter evening light, as if each step was a rhythmic drumbeat.

After all, they were master and apprentice. The apprentice stood near the window and watched Shen Yunrong push open the company door.

He watched her walk through the stairwell, her steps never faltering, heading towards the parking lot.

Eh?
As Sun Jia watched, his eyes widened, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to rub them, as if he were seeing an unbelievable scene.

Shen Yunrong actually got into a white Panamera?

Strange, that car isn't it.
Isn't that Mr. Zhou's car?
