Dong Xiaolu found it amusing to see her boyfriend, who had been so smug just moments before, looking so dejected upon hearing about the large amount of tax to be paid.
Although she felt bad about paying so much tax, that's how it is when you run a business; the more you earn, the more taxes you pay.
Sometimes it's not just these things; some departments in the surrounding area will also come to ask for donations, asking companies to contribute money to support related construction projects.
Han Ming stared blankly for a while, feeling depressed, but after Dong Xiaolu's encouragement, he came to terms with it.
My girlfriend and I calculated that after deducting employee salaries and bonuses, and then removing the 2 million yuan spent on advertising for Zhuangyan, we still had less than 5 million yuan left in the account.
Han Ming rubbed his temples, pondering how to make the money work for him.
Now, I can only achieve my goal of earning 10 million in 3 months by earning more money.
After much deliberation, they decided to rely on the game, so they discussed with Zhuang Yan the possibility of hiring some game customer service staff to handle player inquiries.
We need to free up game design teams so they can focus on designing games.
The game's features need to be further improved, and it needs to maintain its strong appeal in order to attract more players to spend money on the game.
Zhuang Yan was overjoyed when he heard Han Ming ask him to take the lead in recruiting some game operations staff, especially since customer service staff mostly needed to be female.
Han Ming's requirements for new employees are relatively simple. First, they must be presentable. If they are too colorful, it would be quite annoying to see them as colleagues every day.
Of course, those with exceptional talents are an exception.
Game operations customer service personnel first need to understand some computer-related skills, have good communication skills, and also need some writing skills.
Han Ming usually browses other people's game websites, where there are many interviews with game players, some of which are quite well-written and attract a lot of players.
The reason for having more female customer service representatives is that male players prefer to hear female customer service representatives these days, while female players tend to prefer male customer service representatives.
After tallying the number of beds in the existing dormitory building, Han Ming finally decided to hire 8 new employees, including 5 women and 3 men.
The salary could be increased appropriately, since the small factory is located in a relatively remote area, unlike the city.
In order to attract talent, Han Ming had no choice but to resort to increasing compensation.
The current accommodation area can only accommodate a maximum of these people; any more and there won't be enough room. It seems we still need to build more houses.
Han Ming made a phone call to Liang Jianxing, since it was his uncle Liang who had arranged the house construction last time, so he should be familiar with the process.
When Liang Jianxing heard that Han Ming was going to build another house, and after Han Ming introduced the operation of the game, he was quite surprised.
First, I was amazed that such a small game could make so much money. Second, the company needed to hire more people and had nowhere to live, so they needed to build houses.
Recently, Liang Jianxing has been busy with his old business, water pumps, though it's not really his old business.
His original profession was to guide workers in the workshop to polish and process equipment on various lathes. Now, however, all the printing and manufacturing work is done by printers.
Liang Jianxing became a specialist in raw material procurement and sales, essentially entering a completely new field.
It turns out that the factory's purchasing and sales were handled by that gambler Ni Guohai, but since that incident, no one knows where he has gone.
Fortunately, Liang Jianxing knew a few of his former clients, and after several attempts to contact them, he finally secured two orders.
The total number of water pumps was 8,000, which was much less than the amount estimated when Liang Jianxing had agreed with Han Ming. Liang Jianxing was also a little anxious.
However, perhaps it was just good luck, as a certain area in the north is currently suffering from severe drought.
Now someone has contacted him again, saying they want to order a batch of about 10,000 water pumps. Because the delivery time is quite urgent, other factories don't have any in stock, which is a good deal for Liang Jianxing.
This is already the third batch of water pump orders, although negotiations are still ongoing.
However, Liang Jianxing is confident that he can secure the order, since he is currently the only one who can deliver within 7 days.
With this in mind, the production of the second batch of 5,000 water pumps needed to be accelerated. Since the raw materials were all ready, Han Ming decided to start production immediately after discussing it with him over the phone.
As for building houses, Liang Jianxing didn't care. Since the factory was going to develop, building houses was a normal thing.
However, considering that the workshop is mainly a printer work area, it would be inconvenient if outsiders frequently came and went.
Why not just build another workshop next to the existing one and move the rest of the lathes there?
This way, there will be a place to conceal it, and it can be said to be a product processed in the workshop.
According to Liang Jianxing's estimate, a steel structure workshop of about 1,000 square meters, including the infrastructure, would cost around 800,000 yuan.
The cost of a three-story office building with a floor area of 2,000 square meters is approximately 1.7 million yuan, of which 1.1 million yuan is for infrastructure and the remaining 600,000 yuan is for simple decoration.
These budgets were obtained by Liang Jianxing from his dealings with construction companies, so they should be fairly accurate.
Han Ming did some mental calculations and realized that the two buildings would cost 2.5 million yuan, which would significantly reduce his wallet.
However, considering that there's also a water pump, even after deducting taxes and fees, we can still earn over 2 million yuan, which is manageable.
After finalizing the factory expansion with Liang Jianxing, Han Ming asked Liang to contact a construction company and get construction started as soon as possible.
After hanging up the phone, Han Ming, his girlfriend, and Zhuang Yan exchanged wry smiles. It seemed that making money was not easy, but spending money was quite easy.
......
Zhuang Yan was busy with his recruitment work, while Dong Xiaolu not only managed the game company's accounts but also took on the logistics part-time.
The newly recruited employees' food, clothing, housing, and transportation all need to be arranged, and furniture needs to be purchased, so they are busy all day long.
Han Ming was working non-stop, not only printing water pumps, but also taking time to build game servers for future use.
We also need to help with the game aspect, since some extremely complex data processing can be handled faster using the printer's R&D and design module.
Construction teams have entered the factory area, and the clanging and banging sounds echo throughout the entire area.
If the game development team hadn't already cultivated a calm and collected demeanor amidst the hustle and bustle of the city in the urban village, they probably wouldn't have been able to stand it and would have come to complain to Han Ming.
After helping to rush the production of water pumps, Han Ming has nothing else to do besides designing games every day.
It's not that Han Ming doesn't want to make money, but it's not the right time yet. The funds needed for the next plan haven't arrived yet, and most importantly, there's a lack of talent.
The few capable assistants they have are already extremely busy, and they can't find anyone else to help them.
So now Han Ming is not only waiting for Zhuang Yan to recruit new employees, but he also plans to go out and wander around, hoping to run into a few capable assistants.
While his mind was racing with random thoughts, Han Ming browsed the official website forum on his computer, trying to see what players were saying about the game.
