Chapter 160 The Country Known as the Devil's Workplace



Zhang Long himself didn't react much, because he saw excitement, joy, and happiness in the little guy's eyes.

So he smiled and reached out to touch the little guy's rather long horse face. Seeing that it didn't seem to mind him, Zhang Long went a step closer to interact with it.

This startled Mr. Cai, who was standing nearby. What was going on?

An adult's breakdown often happens in an instant. For someone who loves horses, it felt like his world was collapsing.

Zhang Long acquired this Akhal-Teke horse for only $210,000. The reason it was so cheap was that the horse had no value other than its ornamental value.

Because he was worthless, he tried to persuade Zhang Long for a long time, and now when he thinks about it, his face still feels a little burning.

He would rather believe he is dreaming than accept this cruel reality.

After Zhang Long and Hong Long were intimate for a while, Zhang Long inadvertently caught a glimpse of Boss Cai, who had already turned to stone.

The thought that he had initially been very pessimistic about the little guy, only to find that the Red Dragon's behavior was now the complete opposite of his assessment, was clearly hard to accept.

So he calmed it down a bit more and walked toward the other horses.

Red Dragon was the name he gave to this Akhal-Teke horse. Its coat was a metallic red color, so the name Red Dragon was very fitting.

By attaching our company's name to it, we also express our expectations for it, hoping that it can shoulder the responsibility.

Perhaps due to the intense stimulation, Boss Cai remained silent throughout the entire process until Zhang Long was about to leave the quarantine area.

Mr. Cai was speechless at Zhang Long's departure. If he could be so close to his dream horse, he would be happy to stay here.

When they got to him, they just left casually.

So Mr. Cai made an excuse, saying that some other people would be coming over later to watch the horses together.

Let the driver take Zhang Long home first.

After watching Zhang Long leave from the doorway, Boss Cai, unwilling to give up, ran back to check on the horse. No matter how much he called out from outside the stable, Honglong ignored the annoying two-legged beast.

Seeing the Red Dragon's performance, my anxiety finally died.

Back at the company, Zhang Long got busy, well, busy assigning tasks to Yang Mei.

In his words, it's about those who are capable doing more work.

As the boss's wife's trusted confidante in the company, you wouldn't want to disappoint her, would you?

Although he didn't know what she was cursing at him in her heart, did he, Zhang, care?

Zhang, in his life, relies on three things: "thick-skinned, thick-skinned, and thick-skinned!"

Gathering his thoughts, he said to Yang Mei, who was already taking notes in her notebook, "Now, floors 23-25 ​​of the building can be vacated for the time being. After the New Year, a large number of people will be in place. We will set up a separate visual effects company, not under Red Dragon Company."

"We can now have HR start recruiting relevant personnel. In addition, we need to order another batch of top-of-the-line computers."

"By the way, now that we've established a visual effects company, let's set up an animation company as well."

"This can be done gradually. We just need to set up the framework first, and then we can slowly recruit people."

"Alright, you can make the arrangements now. The special effects company needs to hurry up; a large number of employees will be coming over after the New Year."

Speechless, Yang Mei had no choice but to resign herself to her fate and go on to torment the people below, carrying out Zhang Long's mission.

After Yang Mei left, Zhang Long tapped the table thoughtfully.

The animation company can be placed on the 26th floor. By the time more people arrive, the new office buildings will probably be almost finished.

At that time, we can move other departments or the Red Dragon headquarters there.

Under Yang Tianzhen's management, the online media sector is now performing exceptionally well.

It is also currently the only company outside of its core business that brings Zhang Long high profits, excluding Blue Hole.

In the future, we can give her more responsibilities. In Zhang Long's vision, visual effects and animation companies are related to cultural media, so could we let her pick up her old connections again?

Once the special effects company lures people over—no, I mean, signs them up—they make them train apprentices. After signing these contracts, they won't let them go so easily unless they've squeezed every last bit of value out of them.

Turning our attention to South Korea, Park Hee-chon from the headhunting firm was incredibly efficient.

In less than three days, he found out the information he wanted.

Moreover, it was all done without anyone noticing, perfectly illustrating the saying "sneak into the village, don't fire a shot."

His own thinking was also quite unique. Combining his own experience as a laborer, he focused on those unsuccessful but truly talented employees who were like hardworking oxen.

They are the kind of people who only know how to bury themselves in hard work, but never get a promotion or a raise.

There are many people like this all over the world, let alone in South Korea, a country known for its grueling workplaces.

Putting aside the pressure, the terrifying seniority system alone has turned a profession that originally relied on talent into one that also required seniority.

Those who get into these top companies, aren't they all geniuses?

Cai Lina is a 27-year-old senior visual effects artist who works at Dexter Studios. She joined the company right after graduating from university.

Back then, the company wasn't one of the top companies in South Korea like it is now.

The result was quite the opposite. The company grew, but it also became devoid of human warmth.

Because of her educational background, she is clearly more capable than others, but she is never eligible for promotions or raises.

She often has to work overtime, with a minimum of 13 hours a day, but her monthly salary is only about 13 million Korean won, which is equivalent to 77,000 yuan.

This salary looks high, but compared to others in the industry, it's incredibly low, practically a rip-off.

She faces high work pressure, long hours, and low pay, simply because she graduated from a non-prestigious university.

A colleague with a lower job rank and less ability than her, but who had a so-called Seoul National University diploma, received a monthly salary of 15 million won shortly after joining the company.

This was because they were certain she wouldn't switch jobs to another company, so they squeezed her as much as possible.

Now, she has to go to a bar and drink two or three bottles of beer every day after get off work, otherwise she can't sleep.

That day, she went to that tavern for a drink as usual.

Park Hee-chon had already gathered intelligence and had been lying in ambush here for a long time.

Once she was a little tipsy, Park Hee-chon went up to try and get closer to her. And you know what? People who work for headhunting firms are really good with words.

He combined some of his own experiences with those of the other person, and then began to speak fluently.
