Chapter 58 It's you!
After scanning all the information, Yang Ruoqian praised Chang Zhiqing in his heart - these anchors all looked very unreliable and had great potential to fail. With only one recruitment spot, Yang Ruoqian didn't know how to make a decision for a while!
As a qualified boss, Yang Ruoqian used his best skill - throwing the problems back to his subordinates.
"These candidates are all good. Which one do you think is better...worse...and more suitable for our needs?"
Chang Zhiqing walked around to the back of the desk and sat down next to Yang Ruoqian, saying in an unclear tone: "Boss, if I want to know which one to choose, why would I look for you?"
"It's okay, choose." Yang Ruoqian generously stuffed the information into Chang Zhiqing's arms, "I believe in your vision!"
With Chang Zhiqing's completely amateur perspective, maybe she could give Yang Ruoqian a little surprise.
Chang Zhiqing held the information and said uncertainly, "I think that for a host who can't become popular, it's not enough to just be 'bad'. The most important thing is to be mediocre."
mediocre……
Yang Ruoqian seemed to be thinking: "That makes sense. Keep going."
"If they are too bad and lack their own style, they will be soon to become popular. So these candidates of mine are very mediocre, mediocre in all aspects." Chang Zhiqing nodded.
This girl has made great progress!
After two months, I was able to talk about the theory coherently.
Indeed, after three failures, Yang Ruoqian realized that even if he played badly, as long as he played to the highest level, he could still create a bright future.
If you want to be unknown, mediocrity is the best choice.
"What criteria do you use to determine whether a host is 'mediocre'?" Yang Ruoqian raised his eyes and looked at Chang Zhiqing.
"All-round." Chang Zhiqing did not avoid Yang Ruoqian's gaze, "From appearance, to live broadcast content, to personality... In short, every aspect is like the kind of person you can find on the street."
Yang Ruoqian nodded, approving of this judgment: "Please introduce these candidates and which one you think is the most suitable."
Chang Zhiqing placed the information on the table one by one and introduced: "This is a live streamer who visits stores. He visits all kinds of stores. However, due to his unpleasant personality and petty-mindedness, and his live streams are very boring and awkward, he basically has little popularity. So far, he only has a little over 10,000 fans."
Ten thousand fans or so... that's the "big flop" level. The prize money is five million.
No matter how mediocre a host is, he can still attract some traffic.
But the five million bonus is enough...
Yang Ruoqian didn't even glance at the information, he just nodded and said, "Not bad, what about the others?"
Chang Zhiqing glanced at her lazy boss in reproach: "The second one is a course seller, teaching others how to write the beginning of an online novel. But he is also a failure, and many people complained that they would be scolded by the editor if they wrote a book according to his method. Gradually, he lost his popularity."
Yang Ruoqian had some understanding of the writing industry, and he couldn't help but shake his head after hearing this.
It's the kind of course that starts a live broadcast and teaches the so-called writing contract templates, claiming that 99% of the time if you write according to the template, the editor will appreciate it, and then you will soar to success.
At first, such gimmicks can attract some ignorant audiences, but soon everyone will find that these so-called teachings are mostly empty words and clichés, and the popularity will of course quickly disappear.
All writing skills serve the story itself. If you don’t have a good story and just work hard on studying the so-called templates, you will never be able to deceive the eyes of a professional editor.
Yang Ruoqian only thought about it for a moment and rejected this anchor: "This kind of anchor is unlikely to become popular, but I feel that he is somewhat misleading. It is not a good idea to hire him. Let's change him."
You can make money, but you can't make it against your conscience.
"Okay." Chang Zhiqing stuffed the information into the shredder and spread out the last information on the table. "The last anchor is a food anchor. He has no special features and looks only average. His videos are all very similar, so almost no one watches him."
Eating broadcasts... Each video is highly homogenized...
That's normal.
In most cases, the snowball effect of live broadcasts like eating shows will be more serious than other types of live broadcasts.
Food streamers who cannot make money cannot afford the high prices of food, so the materials they can broadcast have to be limited to low-end ingredients that are common to everyone.
This will lead to a more serious loss of popularity, which will in turn make it even more difficult for food broadcast hosts to upgrade their live broadcast content, entering a vicious cycle that is difficult to break free of.
If there is no external help and you only rely on yourself, this vicious cycle is almost unsolvable.
Yang Ruoqian carefully savored Chang Zhiqing's tone, and smiled suddenly, "It seems that you already have a suitable candidate in mind?"
Chang Zhiqing was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Is it that obvious?"
Yang Ruoqian didn't answer the question: "Why do you think that eating broadcast is more suitable?"
Chang Zhiqing blinked: "Actually, none of these three are very good... But compared to the first anchor who always wants the store to waive the bill and is extremely petty, and the second anchor who misleads students, the eating anchor looks a little more human, and is less popular."
Although the third anchor also has various uncomfortable minor flaws, overall, he is indeed the best candidate.
"Then it's decided to be her." Yang Ruoqian made the decision, "What's her name? Does she have a guild now?"
"Hu Yiqin, in a small guild, the maximum penalty is 20,000 or 30,000... But I always feel something is wrong." Chang Zhiqing handed the final information to Yang Ruoqian and asked with some doubt, "It is said that we are hiring a failed anchor to polish the employees' character, but what about the salary level and benefits? What standards do we use?"
It seems inappropriate to lower the salary and benefits standards, but if the standards are not lowered, it feels like a loss.
Yang Ruoqian said without hesitation: "According to the company's normal standards. Although it is setting an example, we cannot let any other employees know this and we cannot trample on the dignity of others."
And as long as you can get something for free from the system, salary and benefits are not important at all.
"Okay, I'll contact her right away." Chang Zhiqing adjusted her skirt, stood up and left the office.
…
Pengcheng, Yuefu Guild.
Lin Cao, who was determined to poach new talent from Kuiguang Entertainment, anxiously pulled his subordinates over and asked, "Are they recruiting new anchors?!"
Lin Cao's men shook their heads: "Not yet, Brother Lin, they don't seem to have made any moves this month."
It's really strange...
It's been so long, is Kuiguang Entertainment really not hiring any anchors and taking the elitist route? Then we have to poach them!
Lin Cao reiterated to his men: "Keep watching, and tell me if there's any movement!"
