Chapter 67: Chapter 67 Truly Adorable l
Ready to present a need, Fang Cheng originally planned to have Xu Qingling work overtime, offering triple the overtime pay while allowing her to take the next day off, but saw Xu Qingling returning to her desk with elegant steps, and then finished the recruitment notice with octopus-like speed.
Noticing how capable the other party was, Fang Cheng sighed.
Again, there wasn’t an opportunity to spend money.
Money not spent is just a pile of waste paper, a burden when left in an account.
Only by constantly spending money can one promote the circulation of currency, stimulate consumer spending, thereby driving domestic demand and fostering the internal development of the economy.
People’s standards of living will improve as a result, and then there will be more time to play and develop games, and maybe even create games that one finds enjoyable.
After all, “video games” were the opportunity that led to his success, whether it was making them or playing them.
But no worries, when the new employees arrive, paying them high salaries is also a way to spend money.
After Xu Qjngling posted the recruitment notice, it wasn’t long before Fang Cheng received a phone call.
It was from Mr. Shen.
Upon answering the call, Fang Cheng found the usually thick-skinned Mr. Shen acting somewhat coy.
Empathizing with him, Fang Cheng asked with concern, “Mr. Shen, has your hair loss gotten serious again?”
“How did you know that!”
“I saw that at three in the morning you ‘liked’ a video by ‘Sweet Little Cat’ and shared it on your Moments. Staying up late is the main culprit for hair loss, so I figured you must be experiencing it lately.”
“Do you need me to send you some tea leaves?”
“Thank you. There’s also a favor I’d like to ask of you. A friend’s child of mine has been out of university for a year now. They became very interested in your studio upon seeing the recruitment ad.”
“Then let them come over.” Discover new chapters at novelhall.com
“...She entered the e-commerce department after graduation and worked there in business operations...”
“...And then?”
On the other end of the phone, Mr. Shen sighed, each breath filled with helplessness.
And upon seeing Xu Qingling, dressed casually and exuding a mix of youthfulness and innocence, she felt somewhat threatened.
Adjusting her glasses, she walked up to Fang Cheng and extended her hand, saying, “Hello, Boss Fang. I’m the operations lead introduced by Mr. Shen. You can call me Qu Fangfang.”
“Hello. But you don’t need to call me Boss Fang, calling me boss or Fang Cheng is fine.”
“Alright, Boss Fang. Where is my workstation? I’d like to start getting familiar with my duties right now.”
After introducing herself, Qu Fangfang didn’t waste any words. Under Xu Qingling’s guidance, she headed to her workstation.
Xu Qingling led her to the workstation and was about to continue spying on her own boss when she heard Qu Fangfang’s cool and slightly dissatisfied voice ring out, “How can I sit on this kind of chair?”
“What’s wrong with the chair?” Xu Qingling asked curiously.
“I’m the operations director, my rank is different from those in admin and planning. My chair should be of a higher grade. How much is this chair?”
“Twenty-seven thousand, with a built-in massage feature. It can recline into a folding bed and is particularly comfortable to sleep on.”
The price of the chair gave Qu Fangfang a jolt, but she stiffened her neck and said, “Equip me with a fifty-four thousand yuan chair. A director’s chair should be double the cost of an ordinary employee’s. It’s common sense.”
Watching the assertive Qu Fangfang, Xu Qingling nodded slightly.
Her grandfather was a businessman, her maternal grandfather was in politics, and her parents were always busy. She was raised alternately by her two grandparents.
Being around two such exceptional people, Xu Qingling had absorbed a great deal of insight and acquired a bit of skill in reading people. She immediately recognized the little office politics game the other party was trying to play.
Heh, how adorable.
Perfect, I’ll play along a little and see what sort of talent this so-called e- commerce culture really has.
So, Xu Qingling showed an innocently harmless smile and said, “But our chairs are all uniform, even the boss uses this type.”
Hearing that Fang Cheng was using the same chair, Qu Fangfang’s mind crashed.
In e-commerce, chairs are a symbol of status, and different job levels must not have identical chairs. Otherwise, it would be seen as not knowing one’s place, followed by a cold shoulder from colleagues.
But having a chair more expensive than your superior is an even bigger taboo in the workplace; it could lead to demotion at best, or being forced out at worst.
So, what should I do?
Looking at Qu Fangfang, who was breaking out in a cold sweat, Xu Qingling found her truly adorable.
