The Xu family went bankrupt, and Xu Yao was heavily indebted. Everyone said that her rich fiancé Shen Yan was Xu Yao's last straw.
Three years later, Xu Yao, however, proactively propose...
118: Xu Yao has enough money to recruit soldiers
Xu Yao took 3 million in cash to the teahouse to pay off her debts, and she was still carrying the box when she went downstairs.
Gu Jun came with Xu Yao today. While Xu Yao was communicating with Boss Wang and other creditors upstairs, Gu Jun was waiting in the car downstairs.
When Xu Yao came down with her suitcase, Gu Jun knew from the weight of it that the debt had not been repaid. Several creditors patted Xu Yao on the shoulder and left. Boss Wang didn't even glance at Gu Jun when he passed by him, pretending not to know him - this was exactly what Gu Jun asked of Boss Wang.
After the other creditors had left, Yu Qin called Xu Yao: "Wait a minute, I have something to give you. No, not for you, but for your mother."
Yu Qin took out a few boxes of dried fruits from the trunk of her car and stuffed them into Xu Yao's hands.
Xu Yao put down the suitcase containing cash and took the dried fruit gift box from Yu Qin.
Yu Qin said these things were not for Xu Yao, but Xu Yao noticed that there was a box of high-end chocolates among them. Lin Meixian never eats chocolate, and only Xu Yao likes chocolate.
"Aunt Yu..."
Yu Qin interrupted Xu Yao fiercely, "Stop talking about not wanting money. Pay me back the money you owe me as soon as possible, that's better than anything else!"
Yu Qin left after she finished speaking.
Gu Jun pretended to know nothing and stepped forward to help Xu Yao carry the suitcase. "How is it, are the creditors easy to talk to?"
Xu Yao looked dazed. "They are more than easy to talk to. It really surprised me!"
Gu Jun said the weight of the box was wrong. Xu Yao tried hard to blink back the tears that welled up in her eyes. "They didn't want the 3 million I brought. They said it was too little, but they really wanted to help me. Uncle Wang took the lead, and the other uncles and aunts lent me another 17 million. They asked me to make ten or twenty times that 3 million in a year... They really trust me!"
After Xu Yao went bankrupt, many people's attitude towards her changed.
Among them was Shen Yan's mother, Guo Xianzhen.
Including Xu Yao’s former so-called best friends.
Also including Shen Yan.
Those who were supposed to accompany Xu Yao through the difficult times no longer have the same attitude as before.
On the contrary, Wang Kui and Yu Qin, creditors who should have hated Xu Yao, still trusted her so much.
These people don't seem to understand what stop-loss is. They confiscated the 3 million that Xu Yao brought and even lent her more money!
Gu Jun was really surprised to hear this.
Gu Jun knew that Boss Wang and the others wouldn't accept the money Xu Yao brought, and he also knew that Boss Wang would lend her more money, but Gu Jun thought it would be at most a few million. The money Boss Wang and the others borrowed, plus the 3 million that hadn't been repaid today, was already a significant boost for Xu Yao's studio. Unexpectedly, Boss Wang was even more generous than Gu Jun expected.
Nine creditors, including Boss Wang, actually wanted to lend another 17 million to Xu Yao!
Gu Jun put the suitcases and the dried fruit gift box in the trunk. Seeing that Xu Yao was still a little lost in thought, Gu Jun hugged her and said, "Don't be afraid. You are not alone. I am here for you."
Xu Yao was too embarrassed to admit that she was timid: "Uncle Wang and the others are not afraid that I will lose all my money, so what should I be afraid of?"
People with thick skin are indeed not afraid. After all, they are dealing with other people's money. If they lose it, they lose it. They already owe so much debt, so an extra 17 million will not make much difference.
Only those who are thin-skinned will feel pressured.
Xu Yao was a person with a strong sense of self-esteem and a thin skin. Gu Jun suppressed his laughter and didn't expose her. "Money in the account won't create any value. Have you thought about how to use it?"
Xu Yao nodded and said, "I need to recruit some people first. It's already very difficult for Xiaoling and I to handle the current business. Even if Uncle Wang and the others hadn't lent me money, I would have planned to recruit some help after the New Year."
Xu Yao is not only the most stingy internet celebrity on the Internet, but also the shabbyst one.
For other internet celebrities with the number of fans that Xu Yao has now, hiring two or three assistants is the minimum requirement. A well-functioning internet celebrity team is indispensable for business liaisons, makeup artists, photographers, copywriters and other positions.
It is indeed not easy to maintain a team, but a good team can help Xu Yao take off and allow her to make more money!
On the way back, Xu Yao was thinking about who to recruit.
When Xiaoling saw that Xu Yao got back the 3 million yuan she had taken away intact, she thought Xu Yao had figured it out. Unexpectedly, Xu Yao had a bigger surprise waiting for her.
"...So, no, so Sister Xu Yao, you are rich now?"
Xiao Ling was so happy: "You don't need an MCN company to sign you, you can promote yourself!"
Xiao Ling was so happy that she calmed down after a long while. She counted on her fingers and said to Xu Yao, "Sister, you should hire someone quickly. The two of us can't finish all the work."
Xu Yao teased Xiaoling, "Aren't you afraid that I'll recruit someone new and take your place?"
Xiaoling was indeed a little scared. She knew she lacked work experience and wasn't irreplaceable by Xu Yao's side. But she couldn't stop Xu Yao from hiring new people just because she was afraid. There was so much work that Xiaoling couldn't do alone.
Xiaoling gritted her teeth and said, "Sister Xu Yao, I may not be your most capable assistant in the future, but I will definitely be your most loyal assistant!"
Xu Yao couldn't help laughing: "Silly girl, I was just teasing you. Even if I recruit a hundred more people in the future, the relationship between you and me will always be different from that of others."
Xiaoling smiled foolishly because of Xu Yao's coaxing.
Xu Yao asked Xiaoling to post the recruitment information on the recruitment website and industry group, while she took out her mobile phone and called Hua Bin.
"Team Leader Hua, have you ever thought about changing jobs?"
On the other end of the phone, Hua Bin's voice sounded somewhat resentful: "When you and that Tangtang were trending together, I thought you were going to call me. That night, I wrote my resignation letter overnight, but you didn't call. You betrayed my trust in you!"
Xu Yao pretended to be panicked: "So you don't want to accept my invitation now?"
Hua Bin sneered on the phone: "No matter how much you pay me, I will add 200 yuan to the amount you mentioned as compensation for my mental damage!"
"make a deal!"
Xu Yao was straightforward, and Hua Bin was also straightforward. The two of them confirmed the matter with just a few simple words. Hua Bin didn't even ask Xu Yao how much basic salary she would offer him.
…
"Team leader, Miss Wen is here again."
As soon as Hua Bin hung up the phone, he heard that Wen Yiyi had arrived.
Since Xu Yao left, Wen Yiyi hasn't come here very often, but every time she comes, she gives Hua Bin and others a hard time.
In order to avoid being criticized by Wen Yiyi, Hua Bin always coaxed Wen Yiyi in a humble manner.
Perhaps because of this, Wen Yiyi had a good impression of Hua Bin. After Chen Yan established "Shengshi Media" and was looking for staff, Wen Yiyi extended an olive branch to Hua Bin. Of course, Hua Bin refused to go, and Wen Yiyi thought that Hua Bin was dissatisfied with the salary. Now that "Shengshi" has signed Tangtang, Wen Yiyi decided to give Hua Bin another chance.
Not only that, Wen Yiyi also learned the virtue of respecting talented people and personally came to the advertising company to invite Hua Bin to join the company.
Hua Bin had always declined politely before, but when Wen Yiyi came again today, Hua Bin made it clear.
"Miss Wen, there's no need to come again. I've already accepted Xu Yao's invitation."
Hua Bin took out the resignation application that had been in the drawer for a long time and walked out around Wen Yiyi.
Wen Yiyi pulled his clothes and said, "Wait, whose invitation did you accept?"
Hua Bin repeated with a smile, "You accepted Xu Yao's invitation. Miss Wen, is your hearing impaired at such a young age?"
