"Xia, I've resigned," Li Weiya said with a smile.
Jiang Xia was stunned for a moment, then quickly recalled that Li Weiya had indeed told him about her plans to resign last month, but he had been too busy to ask. He didn't expect the surprise to come so quickly.
In today's context, this would be considered a double celebration.
"Great news! Congratulations to Aunt Li on escaping her misery!"
"And then it goes back into your little ditch, doesn't it?"
"It's a little small now, but it will grow bigger in the future. Trust me, Aunt Li, you definitely won't be disappointed."
Li Weiya chuckled softly, not doubting Jiang Xia's words: "So, what do you plan to have me do?"
"Project Director, monthly salary of ten thousand." Jiang Xia said without hesitation.
Currently, Qitian Animation Company only has one project, Tom and Jerry, so the project director has immense power.
Hearing this number, Li Weiya was slightly surprised. In 2009, when the average salary in the country was only two or three thousand, ten thousand was not a small amount. You should know that even in her previous company, her salary was only about fifteen thousand.
It seems that Tom and Jerry really made him a lot of money, otherwise he wouldn't dare to charge such a price.
"Such a high salary? Are there any additional requirements?" Li Weiya asked.
"Hehe, you guessed it." Jiang Xia said with a smile, "If Aunt Li agrees to go to the capital with me, I'll give her an extra 10,000 yuan in salary."
Li Weiya's lips twitched slightly; she knew this would happen.
This guy has been eyeing her for a long time.
Come to think of it, once they get to the capital, the company will need to choose a new location, the studio will need to be reorganized, and people will need to be recruited. In addition, there are all sorts of other miscellaneous things to deal with. Without her help, it would be really difficult for Jiang Xia to handle everything on her own.
Moreover, he also has to attend classes, which means he has even less time.
"Let me think about it."
She sighed. To be honest, she was thirty-eight this year, almost forty. It wasn't that she felt old, but she really didn't want to keep going through all the trouble of living in another city.
But from another perspective, if she joined a young company at the age of thirty-eight, doesn't that mean she has to go crazy with them again?
In fact, Jiang Xia has been finding all sorts of ways to torment her every day, and sometimes she actually enjoys it.
Working with these young people always makes me feel younger, whereas at my previous company I just wanted to slack off all day.
Moreover, if we go to the capital, I can see my son more often. But the key question is, what should we do with our home here? Should we leave it vacant or rent it out?
This is a problem that can't be figured out in a short time. There are too many things involved. In the end, I need to find some time to discuss it properly with Amin.
"Tell me about you guys. I heard from Amin that the second season of Tom and Jerry is already finished?" She quickly changed the subject.
"Yes, it's all done. As long as we coordinate with the TV station, it should be broadcast on TV soon." Jiang Xia said with a smile, "Aunt Li, in a couple of days, A-Ming, Yan Wan, and I will have to go to school. We'll need to trouble you again to sign the contract with the TV station."
Li Weiya was slightly helpless. What was she thinking about just now?
That kid just knows how to torment her!
I'm sure.
“Okay, leave the documents and official seal with me, and I'll talk to them. But you have to tell me the price beforehand.” She agreed.
After all, I'm about to become his person, so I need to show some results.
Besides, this kind of business work is indeed more suitable to be done by her, the project director.
“I will arrange another operations person for you later. Currently, she is the one who is liaising with the partners. If you have any questions, you can ask her directly,” Jiang Xia said with a smile.
"OK."
"By the way, Aunt Li, there's a celebration banquet tonight, and I'd like to invite you to attend. A-Ming will be there too," Jiang Xia suddenly said.
Li Weiya hesitated, "I... am I not suitable?"
“Why not? Aunt Li, please don’t refuse. I’ve long considered you a member of Qitian Animation. Your help has been indispensable to Qitian Animation’s journey. In my opinion, there is no one more suitable than you.”
Jiang Xia said earnestly, "Moreover, I also want to formally introduce you to others on this occasion. If you don't come, I will personally invite you in a little while."
Li Weiya felt a little helpless. This guy had already said so much, it wouldn't be appropriate to refuse him now.
However, to be honest, hearing my students speak so highly of her made me inexplicably happy.
"Alright then, what time tonight, and where?"
"Six o'clock, Maple Hotel. Amin knows the exact location."
"I'm still at the company right now, and I still have a few things to finish, so I won't go with him. I'll come over by myself in a bit," Li Weiya said.
"All right."
Jiang Xia pursed her lips: "By the way, Aunt Li, do you think I should invite those two temporary workers to the celebration banquet?"
Li Weiya paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "You're so silly! Those two aren't locals, how can they participate? Didn't I tell you about this?"
"It seems... there really isn't."
Jiang Xia said weakly that even the labor outsourcing contract was handled by Li Weiya, and he only glanced at it.
"Um... how should I pay them their salaries?"
"Oh, you can just give it to me, and I'll transfer it directly to their account."
"Alright."
"Is there anything else? If not, I'll hang up now."
"No, no, it's just... Aunt Li, you absolutely have to come! I can't do without you!"
"Alright, alright, I know," Li Weiya said with a smile. This kid, he's such a grown man, yet he still acts like a child to her, like she's her son.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xia breathed a sigh of relief. After bringing Aunt Li to the company, he still had to find a way to bring her to the capital.
Ultimately, his entrepreneurial journey was made possible by two women; without Aunt Li's help, he really wouldn't have made it.
But it's unlikely that just offering a salary will convince her. It seems I'll have to go talk to Amin and make some promises. Then, with both sons working together, the trip to the capital should be settled.
A godson is still a son.
"How did your chat with your godmother go?" Lin Yanwan asked as she walked in, carrying taro balls.
“I agreed. Coincidentally, she just resigned today, so I offered her the position of project director. When we get to the capital, she can help out here for now,” Jiang Xia said, patting the cat’s head.
Lin Yanwan nodded gently. Jiang Xia had told her about this before. The company does need a pillar of support right now. They can't let Jiang Xia handle everything. He doesn't have that much time and energy to manage it.
Therefore, Li Weiya is the most suitable candidate.
