The meeting room suddenly became quiet.
Everyone stared at the door.
Then...
They saw Lu Yuan walking in slowly.
Lu Yuan looked unimpressive and his face was not looking good. When he walked in, he took out a napkin from the conference table and wiped his nose. After wiping his nose, he threw the napkin into the trash can. Then he couldn't help coughing a few times. His expression looked helpless for some reason...
In fact...
Lu Yuan was indeed helpless!
Whenever the temperature changes or the seasons change, he will catch a cold if he is not careful.
And when you catch a cold, you get a fever, runny nose, and cough, all at once. It's a severe cold that often lasts for several days...
Lu Yuan is such a jerk.
My body is full of energy when I am doing things, and I don't look weak either...
Why am I so immune to colds?
Speechless...
Lu Yuan shook his head, then looked up at Liu Yaya.
For some reason, although Lu Yuan's eyes looked very peaceful and he didn't have any aura at all, and was even worse than Chen Cong's, Liu Yaya found that she didn't dare to look Lu Yuan in the eye.
This seems like a kind of guilty conscience coming from deep within?
after all……
The person in front of me is none other than myself.
This person is Lu Yuan!
A person's name is like a tree's shadow...
"Well... I heard about what happened today... ahem, I heard about it..." Lu Yuan found a seat next to Chen Cong and sat down, looking at everyone with a silly smile on his face.
"Mr. Lu, we are all fighting for our own interests. After all, in the face of high profits, we... we have no way to refuse." Liu Yaya did not speak, but another anchor, Tiger Tooth Girl, stood up and looked at Lu Yuan.
"I understand. If you give me 10 million, I will change jobs without hesitation..." Lu Yuan nodded with a really bright smile.
"Thank you Mr. Lu for your understanding, but as Liu Yaya said, we do have some feelings for Yuancheng..." The girl with tiger teeth was not used to Lu Yuan's smile.
This smile is so sincere and peaceful.
As if, worried about anything at all.
This made Tiger Tooth Girl really uncomfortable.
"Which live streaming platform do you want to go to? Ahem, ahem, I have never had the right to stop you. Neither Brother Chen nor I have the right to stop you. I know it's not easy for everyone, and I understand it very well. After all, I have done some shameless things for money several times... Ahem, ahem..." After Lu Yuan finished speaking, he coughed lightly.
"Mr. Lu, I hope we can get the same treatment that Mr. Xu gave us. After all, we are the veterans of 'remote' live broadcast. According to market research, we have supported half of the 'remote' live broadcast industry..." Liu Yaya finally spoke.
Although she felt a little weak when facing Lu Yuan, at this moment, when she thought that she was the one controlling the conditions, she became more powerful and tough.
"Xu Hong's contract is for five years, and I will give you 50 million in five years. But do you know what will happen after five years?" Lu Yuan didn't care about Liu Yaya's toughness and just shook his head.
"It's precisely because I don't know what will happen in the future that I can't resist. At least 10 million a year is very stable because of the contract. No matter what the future of the live broadcast industry is like, I will get the 50 million anyway. Compared to your empty promises and empty promises, I hope to have a stable income."
Liu Yaya stared at Lu Yuan. She felt that Lu Yuan was fooling her.
Generally speaking, bosses don’t like to paint a rosy picture for you to keep you in the future, and then let you work hard for them and make money for them, right?
Liu Yaya was very distrustful of Lu Yuan, but at the same time she felt that she had the capital to talk to Lu Yuan.
After all, she knew what impact her and others' collective job-hopping would have on the "remote" live broadcast at this critical moment.
She is now a bargaining chip.
She hopes to exchange the chips for greater benefits.
"Oh, okay, then I wish you... a successful start and a smooth journey..." Lu Yuan coughed.
"Huh? Mr. Lu, what do you mean?" Liu Yaya was stunned after hearing this.
She never dreamed that Lu Yuan would actually say this.
even……
There was no attempt to retain him.
"If you don't believe in what I said about the future, then what can I do? I never like to use sweet words to keep you. To be honest, I can afford your buyout fee... I can also sign, but if the contract is for five years, it will be beneficial to me, because with the advent of the Internet age, the live broadcast industry will inevitably rise in the future. Five years? I think the benefits you can get from the share will be more than 50 million... Signing you for 50 million is really good for me, but not for you..." Lu Yuan shook his head and looked at everyone with a sincere look.
At the same time, I feel a little emotional.
"Mr. Lu! I told you, I don't like your empty promises! If there is benefit, why not sign? I don't think you are doing this for our own good. Moreover, if we leave, your 'remote' live broadcast will surely suffer a major blow, including traffic. Your 'remote' live broadcast will surely drop significantly!" Liu Yaya took a deep breath, with a hint of distrust and strong suspicion in her eyes.
In her mind, she already regarded Lu Yuan as a smooth talker.
"Liu Yaya... cough, cough..." Lu Yuan wiped his nose again, and then his smile gradually disappeared: "You have forgotten the essence of 'remote' live broadcast..."
"What essence!"
"Sorry, I have a cold and my head is dizzy. I don't want to say much. I can only say one thing, even if you leave, the sun will still rise as usual. Winter is coming, and spring should not be far away. How about this... Liu Yaya, and all my fellow anchor friends, how about this, if you want to stay, then stay, and if you want to leave, then leave... 'Remote' live broadcast will never restrict anyone's freedom... After all, everyone wants freedom, and I like freedom too. In fact, if the company hadn't stopped me and many things hadn't been handled well, I would want to go home for the New Year now. I actually... really want to have a good New Year early..." Lu Yuan stood up, still with a silly smile on his face.
He looked at everyone again.
Under the sunlight, everyone looked at Lu Yuan and coughed again.
but……
Lu Yuan's smile is very contagious.
This moment...
Somehow, everyone felt a little empty.
They found that the script did not go the way they had expected.
“You…” Liu Yaya’s eyes widened.
Looking at Lu Yuan in disbelief.
She felt herself despised.
Lu Yuan’s attitude made her very angry.
What she wanted to say.
But now…
She found that she had nothing to say.
"Brother Chen, why don't you talk to them? I feel so dizzy... By the way, if you want to terminate the contract, Brother Chen, you should give them the contract now..."
"Um."
Chen Cong glanced at Lu Yuan, and when he saw that there was some peace in Lu Yuan's eyes from beginning to end, he nodded immediately.
"Oh, right..."
"What?"
"No need for liquidated damages, Brother Chen. Didn't you read the email I sent you at the end of last month?"
"What!" Chen Cong was confused.
No more penalty for breach of contract?
How is this possible?
Is this still Lu Yuan?
In Chen Cong's impression, Lu Yuan is the kind of person who will not give up until he gets some advantage. Lu Yuan will definitely ask for the several million yuan in liquidated damages.
but……
What does this mean?
In the conference room.
The anchors were also stunned.
No penalty for breach of contract?
Is there such a good thing?
Impossible!
Afterwards, Liu Yaya's expression changed slightly.
She felt that Lu Yuan was trying to win people's hearts.
"Did you not read the email I sent you last month?"
"Ah, I didn't see it..." Chen Cong shook his head subconsciously after hearing Lu Yuan's words.
"You'll know after seeing it now..." Lu Yuan smiled, coughed, and turned away under everyone's strange looks.
"Oh, okay, I'll take a look now."
Chen Cong nodded.
When Lu Yuan left the meeting room, Chen Cong immediately opened the notebook next to him and checked the email from last month.
When he saw the title of the email, he was slightly stunned.
Then...
He glanced at everyone with complicated eyes.
"Well, since Mr. Lu has said so, I can't say anything... Sister Chen, give them the contract. If they all want to leave, let them be free again... According to what Mr. Lu said, there is no need to pay the penalty..."
"good."
Chen Jia nodded. Although she didn't know what Lu Yuan meant, she still took out the contract in front of everyone.
And asked someone to draft a termination agreement.
At this time...
The anchors looked at each other and suddenly felt a little uneasy.
The girl with tiger teeth stared at the direction where Lu Yuan left for a long time, and then fell silent.
"Although I know that Mr. Lu is putting on a show to win people's hearts, I still want to thank Mr. Lu. If there is a chance in the future, we can still cooperate again. Everyone, let's sign it. It's getting late and Mr. Xu is still waiting for us." Liu Yaya picked up the termination contract without hesitation and signed it.
After hearing what Chen Jia said, others also picked up the termination contracts.
Tiger-toothed girl Chen Lin and the others hesitated for a long time.
"Why are you hesitating? This is Mr. Lu's way of winning people's hearts... Don't be fooled by such small profits. It's better to control your destiny in your own hands. After we sign, we can still discuss the terms with Mr. Xu." Liu Yaya looked at these people and immediately tried to persuade them.
"..." Tiger Tooth Girl and Chen Lin continued to remain silent.
After a while...
Chen Lin, who had been silent throughout the whole process, suddenly shook his head.
"Liu Yaya..."
"What's wrong?"
"How much do you know about Mr. Xu, and how much do you know about Mr. Lu?"
"What do you mean?"
"I suddenly felt that I did something wrong. Really, I don't know if Mr. Lu is trying to win people's hearts, but at least, I saw that there was equality in Mr. Lu's eyes. Also, although Mr. Lu didn't say much, I really saw respect in his eyes. I feel that this kind of respect is not seen in Mr. Xu's eyes..." Chen Lin shook her head.
"Are you out of your mind?"
"I won't terminate the contract." Chen Lin looked at Chen Cong, then stood up and said, "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry to trouble you. You guys continue chatting. I won't terminate the contract."
After saying this, she bowed to Chen Cong, then turned and left.
"I...I don't understand either." The girl with tiger teeth also stood up after hearing Chen Lin's words.
"Me too……"
One after another, several people stood up, bowed to Chen Cong, and then turned around and left the meeting room.
"I really don't understand!" Liu Yaya shook her head and looked at these people.
She thought these people were fools.
but……
It doesn't matter.
After all, most people like Xiaoxianer did not leave and signed termination contracts.
After signing, Chen Cong stood up.
"Well... I wish you all a bright future. Although you have left 'Remote', I still hope you can live well..."
"Mr. Chen, I also hope that remote entertainment can be good, but unfortunately, we can't cooperate for the time being. But in short, no matter what happens, I hope you don't blame us. We can't do anything about it."
"It's okay, everyone has their own choice."
"Thank you for your understanding."
"Well, let's go."
"good."
After everyone left, Chen Cong silently browsed his emails again.
"Mr. Chen, are we just going to let them go like this? Then... wouldn't the 'remote' live broadcast be..."
"Luckily I didn't read the email."
"ah?"
"Last month, A Yuan urged me to compile statistics on the various anchors for the past year, but I was delayed due to some things..."
“The statistics are…”
"It's time to give out year-end bonuses. Last month, Ayuan was preparing to give out year-end bonuses and prepare for the New Year..."
"What! There's still more than a month before the Chinese New Year. How come..."
"Who knows... Anyway, he seems to be looking forward to the New Year more than anyone else in the company... In fact, I suspect that if the company wasn't running without people, he would want everyone to have a holiday early."
"????"
When Chen Jia heard this, he was stunned.
"By the way, Sister Chen, your year-end bonus will not be left behind... This time, it will be given to the entire 'Remote'... In fact, last month, A Yuan was considering giving out year-end bonuses... Really, which company gives out bonuses so early?"
"What!" Chen Jia was also stunned.
