A few days later.
A man and a woman were standing downstairs of the former Shengjing Mansion...now the Kuiguang Building.
Mr. Yang not only bought the entire building, but also took away the underground parking lot.
From now on, parking for employees will be free and no one else will grab the spots, which is very convenient.
The Kuiguang Group, which owns an entire high-end office building in the center of Jinhai City, has been widely reported by many media outlets during this period.
As for other entertainment companies, the famous and talked-about ones are generally the artists signed under them. The company itself is not unwell-known, but it is not discussed much either.
However, the situation of Kuiguang Group seems to be the opposite.
On the Internet, Shang Qianyu is not even discussed as much as the Kuiguang Group itself!
After all, chasing stars and watching dramas are just hobbies, but Kuiguang Group is related to making a living.
Qin Xin looked around and whispered to the woman beside him, "Then you wait downstairs. I'll go upstairs and talk to the leader first."
"Remember to tell your boss that I really didn't use backdoors. I'm very experienced in this kind of planning. I can help you with things. The salary I ask for is not high, and it's definitely worth the work I do!"
"...You didn't say a word about the closure of your escape room store, right?" Qin Xin couldn't help but complain, "I really can't make the decision on this. I have to ask. Wait for my news."
The woman pretended to be sad and sighed: "Ah, what do you think of me? It's great that you can help me!"
"Okay, no more nonsense." Qin Xin looked at the time. "Have a cup of coffee. The coffee in this coffee shop is pretty good and not expensive."
After saying that, Qin Xin walked into the building, swiped his employee card, and passed through the gate.
After the entire building was purchased, all necessary facilities were renovated.
For example, they set up a reception desk on the first floor of the building, or expanded the staff who originally maintained the building...
In short, the office building, which was already very high-end, has now become even more high-end.
Even after Yang Ruoqian acquired the entire office building, the prices of all the surrounding properties increased.
The prices of nearby shops increased by 10% on the spot!
A thriving company has a siphon effect - larger and larger scale means more and more employees.
With so many employees, they definitely need living facilities, including food, clothing, housing and transportation.
When demand increases, business will be good, and when business is good, the rent of nearby shops will naturally be more expensive.
Even though the employee cafeteria of Kuiguang Group is very luxurious, it is only open for lunch, and breakfast and dinner are covered by the company's meal allowance.
These two meals represent countless needs.
The development of Kuiguang Group in Jinhai City has truly made people around it feel the improvement in their lives.
Even if you can't get a job directly in Kuiguang Group, you can still make a living by working around the company.
"What a new atmosphere..." Qin Xin sighed, and quietly glanced at the unfamiliar employees around him, "I wonder what kind of work will be assigned to me today?"
He completed the resignation procedures from his old company a few days ago. He didn't feel sad for even a minute when leaving the familiar environment.
Soon, he arrived at the front desk on the 23rd floor and, under the guidance of Qi Mu, came to Yang Ruoqian's office.
After the secretary quietly closed the door and left, Qin Xin quickly took out the plan he had made at home in the past few days and placed it on Yang Ruoqian's desk.
"Good morning, Mr. Yang. These are the preliminary plans I made in the past few days. Do you think there is anything that needs to be changed?"
Yang Ruoqian perfunctorily read two pages, then perfunctorily praised: "Very good, very perfect, just do it according to this... But, why didn't I see you give me the most important thing?"
Qin Xin was stunned: "The most important thing?"
Yang Ruoqian was used to new employees who were not familiar with the business. He sighed and patiently explained, "To start a project, the most necessary thing is funding. How can you start a project if you don't even have funding?"
"Why didn't I see a budget in the document you gave me? Did you forget to write it down?"
Qin Xin was even more confused now: "But... Mr. Yang, this is just a preliminary plan. I want you to review it, and then make a detailed plan based on this preliminary plan, and then tell you the budget."
Yang Ruoqian nodded in agreement: "You are very cautious, very good. Now I have reviewed it, what about the budget?"
Already reviewed...
What about the budget?
Qin Xin opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment.
With just a dozen seconds, how could Qin Xin, who was not a professional buyer or accountant, calculate the budget?
I came to see Mr. Yang today, firstly to ask him to look over the project book, and secondly to ask for someone's favor.
A large-scale variety show requires designers, accountants, lawyers, hosts, guests, photographers, editors, logistics staff...even an audience group hired to control the atmosphere. These cannot be accomplished by just picking up any passerby.
How could such a complex and comprehensive project be budgeted so quickly if it hadn’t even been planned properly? Moreover, generally speaking, the project side is the one that is anxious to get the budget, and the investors are the ones who are stuck with the budget…
In order to monitor the flow of funds, reduce costs and increase efficiency, the budget of a project needs to be reviewed at various levels before it can be approved.
But when it comes to Mr. Yang, why does it feel like the roles are completely reversed?
If you don’t know, you might think that Mr. Yang is so poor that he can’t even afford to eat, and he’s desperate for this budget to survive…
Qin Xin thought about it and thought that this must be a test from the leader, so he adhered to the principle of prudence and expressed his determination to save money for the company: "Mr. Yang, I will tell you the budget as soon as the detailed plan comes out."
"The detailed plan has a detailed budget, and the preliminary plan has a preliminary budget." Yang Ruoqian tirelessly educated the newcomer, "You should give me a number now, and say it is high. Don't come to me anxiously to increase the budget later."
Yang Ruoqian's calculations were very shrewd. He gave a little more budget at the beginning, and when the program team wanted to return the excess budget, he would make things difficult for them, set up a lot of cumbersome links and approval processes, and delay the process as much as possible.
As long as you can make it through the end-of-quarter settlement, you will be considered a success.
If you want to return the money to the group, you will definitely encounter the difficult situation of being passed around.
Although the loss this quarter was not much, it was the first loss of the year after all. Mr. Yang is now full of motivation and confidence.
With a good attitude, you will have more creativity.
Qin Xin thought for a moment and said tentatively: "Well... Mr. Yang, after hearing that our company is going to host a variety show, many sponsors have sent sponsorship invitations. Don't worry, the budget may not be too much."
"The total cost of Idol Producer is about 300 million. Is our production cost higher? But it won't exceed 500 million..."
"I heard that the naming fee for a mineral water brand alone was 200 million. Taking into account other sponsorships, we should be able to get our capital back at the beginning of the project."
"You may not know that I received several calls a few days ago from companies that wanted to discuss sponsorship projects with me. The sponsorship fees were very high... The budget is not particularly important."
Just by releasing the rumor that you're going to make a variety show, a bunch of companies came and offered to give you money?
Now, let alone the prototype of a variety show, we haven’t even seen the shadow of one. The entire plan hasn’t even been completed with a PPT, and other companies are so impatient to give us money?
And he even begged people to take the money? Yang Ruoqian's mouth twitched slightly - has the company's situation deteriorated to this point? "Xiao Qin, you are new here and may not be familiar with our company's culture. We must be careful and cautious when choosing sponsors. It is better to have nothing than to have something bad." Yang Ruoqian coughed lightly, "Besides, sponsorship fees are sponsorship fees, and budgets are budgets. The two cannot be confused."
"You report the costs, and the group will give you the budget. Sponsorship fees during the variety show, or any other income, will all be returned to the company as profit after the project is over. This is the process, and you can't mess around with it."
"By the way, you didn't agree to those sponsorships, did you?"
Qin Xin admired Mr. Yang's strict rules in his heart, and was glad for his sobriety: "No, Mr. Yang, I haven't agreed to them yet. I feel that I can't decide on such an important matter."
It is a consensus in the industry that the standards for accepting sponsorships by industries under the Kuiguang Group are extremely high.
But no matter how high the standards are, as long as we can meet the threshold and be selected as a sponsor by Kuiguang Group, we can recover 100% of the costs.
All manufacturers are flocking to it.
However, it is not realistic to bet on a probability that is almost equivalent to buying a lottery ticket. If you cannot contact the person in charge of sponsorship, you can contact the chief planner and ask him to help talk...
Qin Xin was very clear about his position, and he knew how insignificant and low his status as the chief planner was, so he did not take any requests as an excuse, but politely refused all of them and asked them to follow the company's procedures honestly.
Now it seems that his decision was right.
If he acted on his own or agreed to those people in a daze, the consequence would most likely be losing Mr. Yang's trust.
It's not worth it for that little money!
"Yes, this is the attitude you should have at work." Hearing that the sponsorship was not accepted, Yang Ruoqian nodded with satisfaction, "When you want to accept the sponsorship, please contact Qi Mu. The company will have a professional analysis team to analyze whether you should accept the sponsorship."
Qin Xin scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "Don't worry, Mr. Yang... Oh, by the way, I have another small matter and would like to ask for your opinion."
Small matter?
Yang Ruoqian paused.
The masters usually make the final appearance, and Yang Ruoqian dare not let his guard down about what his employees call "small matters".
"What's the matter?" Yang Ruoqian narrowed his eyes.
Qin Xin said cautiously, "That is...isn't our variety show a horror show? How much land do you plan to allocate to the production team as a venue?"
Yang Ruoqian thought about it in his mind and said casually: "For a variety show, the lounge takes up one floor, and the working group takes up one floor... Well, for the sake of viewing and program content, the secret room must be larger, and it is best to have a three-dimensional feel."
"Five floors, right? Is that enough?"
Qin Xin was so shocked that he was speechless: "Boss Yang... five floors, isn't five floors a bit too much?"
It's just a variety show, is it necessary to use five floors of a high-end office building?
Isn’t this cost too high?
The cost is high, and Qin Xin is also under great pressure to make a profit! With such a large investment, it is very difficult to make the input-output ratio look good.
Unless you are just planning to make a quick buck and run, in many cases, the bigger the budget, the better.
"Mr. Yang..."
"Okay, that's no problem." Yang Ruoqian was best at seizing the moment when his employees hesitated, and forcibly misinterpreting their shock as consent. "Anything else?"
Qin Xin was silent for a long time again, and decided to quickly end all the issues involving money: "Okay... Mr. Yang, what about the personnel? After all, we are building a haunted house from scratch, so we definitely need to hire some professional designers and ask someone to customize the script."
"The scripts we can buy on the market have been played by many people. If they are used in variety shows, they will definitely lose the suspense."
"Well... Mr. Yang, I happen to know a boss who once opened a physical escape room store. Can you take a look at her?"
"Although the store she opened went bankrupt, her professionalism is still very good."
Yang Ruoqian asked curiously, "It went bankrupt? Why did it go bankrupt?"
Yang Ruoqian plans to arrange the key personnel for this variety show himself and make sure to place the people he trusts the most.
As for other less important staff members, there is no need to go through so much trouble and let Qin Xin handle it himself.
After all, he is the chief planner of the variety show, and he knows best what kind of people and how many people should be used in non-critical positions.
The designer of the haunted house and the secret room is naturally a key position, and Yang Ruoqian has his own arrangements.
Generally speaking, these people who are recommended from within are quite capable, and Yang Ruoqian will not hire them.
But after hearing that the secret room operation had gone bankrupt, Yang Ruoqian became a little interested in the person Qin Xin mentioned.
Qin Xin was a little embarrassed: "The reasons why her secret room closed down... well, generally speaking, there are many reasons, such as the location and funding."
“But the most important thing is word of mouth.”
"...Well, the design of her escape room is a bit too scary and horrifying. Most importantly, she doesn't show much mercy to customers. There have even been cases where customers were eliminated after playing for just over ten minutes."
"After spending so much money, customers were definitely unhappy with this result, so there were more complaints and negative reviews, and we had no choice but to close down."
"But she wasn't greedy for money, she was always doing it at a loss... In the end she didn't owe any money to her employees, but was left with debt herself."
"You can't let her be the boss of the secret room, but I think she can still be competent in designing the secret room. If you haven't decided on the candidate yet, why not let her come up for an interview?"
The more Yang Ruoqian listened, the more excited he became... Isn't this exactly the talent he was looking for? ! Ruining the customer experience?
He wanted to make the experience the worst possible! "No need for an interview, just her." Yang Ruoqian immediately decided, "Just let her go to the Human Resources Department to sign the contract!"
ps: Godfathers, can you give me some monthly tickets? Please. (End of this chapter)
