"No, Mr. Wu, I don't understand what you mean?"
"Mr. Lin, to be frank, I just want to ask you if I can switch jobs and work at Xingchen Technology."
Lin Chen fell silent. To be honest, Wu Manni was a talented and capable person.
He didn't have the ability to become the director of TX's game division, right? Moreover, when Lin Chen went to TX to sell "Fruit Ninja", Wu Manni did not look down on him because he was just a college student, which made Lin Chen feel a little good about her.
But they are from Tencent after all. It's like two armies facing each other, and the enemy's general suddenly runs over and says he wants to betray them. Would you believe that? Aren't you afraid that the enemy is a spy?
"Mr. Wu, I find it hard to believe you."
"President Lin, I was watching your live stream just now. I know the company you mentioned is Tencent. Tencent has indeed done a lot of things like this before. Although I felt it was wrong, I didn't have the ability to change it. But now that you've created this game platform, I see an opportunity to change this situation. I really want to switch jobs."
"Mr. Wu, can you give me some time to think about it and give me an answer in a few days?"
After hearing this, Wu Manni replied disappointedly, "Okay, then I'll wait for your news."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Chen sat in front of the computer and pondered for a long time.
At that moment, An Rou walked in carrying a plate of sliced apples.
"I saw your live stream ended a long time ago, why are you still sitting here?"
"Oh, Wu Manni from TX just called me and said she wants to switch jobs and come to our Xingchen Technology."
"Huh? Wu Manni? Is she the female manager who was in charge of liaising with us when we went to TX headquarters in Shenzhen?"
"Yes, he's now the director of Tencent Games."
"Isn't that the same level as Brother Dawei? Why would someone at such a high level switch jobs?"
"Yeah, that's why I'm wondering too. Although she's a talented person, I don't feel comfortable using her. Oh well, I'll call a meeting with Dawei and Zhang Yiming tomorrow to discuss it."
"Hmm, would you like an apple?"
"Okay, eat the apple and go to sleep."
The next morning, Lin Chen called a meeting with Dawei and Zhang Yiming and told them about Wu Manni.
Zhang Yiming frowned and said, "Boss, this is very awkward. The game director from TX has jumped ship, but there's no corresponding position for her. And what if she's a spy?"
Lin Chen nodded, then asked Brother Dawei, "Brother Dawei, what do you think?"
Dawei replied, "Boss, actually I really need someone in charge of operations. My strengths are game ideas and development, but to be honest, I'm not very good at operations. Especially after the Starry Sky Games platform goes live, there will definitely be more and more things to do, and I'm already a bit overwhelmed."
"I see. So you mean you can accept her changing jobs?"
"Whether it's her or not doesn't matter, but based on her resume, her work experience is undoubtedly suitable."
"So do you think she's being sincere?"
"Boss, with the three of us keeping an eye on things, what's there to be afraid of? The three of us together could take down even Tencent, so what are we afraid of some little spy?"
Lin Chen and Zhang Yiming exchanged a glance. Yeah, what's there to be afraid of? Let's just do it.
"Okay, then I'll poach her. Hahaha, Dawei, you really have a big vision."
Dawei stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked out while showing off.
"I had no intention of vying for power, but the people suffer so much..."
Lin Chen's lips twitched. I can only give you a 60 out of 100 for your act!
Afterwards, Lin Chen returned to his office and dialed Wu Manni's number.
The phone rang for a long time before it was answered.
"Hello, Mr. Lin, I'm sorry, I was unavailable to answer the phone just now."
Lin Chen didn't mind, which is understandable.
"Mr. Wu, I'm calling to tell you that you're welcome to join Xingchen Technology."
"real?!"
You could hear Wu Manni's joyful voice on the phone.
"Of course it's true. Come here, I'll put you in charge of the Starry Sky Games platform."
"Okay, Mr. Lin, it may take me a few days to process my resignation, but I will come over as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll wait for you in Shanghai."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Chen chuckled softly, wondering what Little Ma's expression would be when he heard the news.
After hanging up the phone, Wu Manni went back to her office.
I started thinking about how to resign.
If I told Pony Ma the truth—that I resigned to join Star Technology—Pony Ma would probably find all sorts of reasons to block me, and I would eventually have to sign a non-compete agreement to leave.
But I used to be in charge of the game platform. If I signed a non-compete agreement, I definitely can't do any work related to games, so that would be the end of it.
So I have to think of a solution myself.
At noon, Wu Manni did not go to the cafeteria for lunch, but instead met up with her lawyer friend to ask for her opinion.
"Manny, have you struck it rich lately? That's great, you're treating me to dinner."
"Hehe, I just had a question I wanted to ask you about."
"Oh? What's the problem?"
"I want to switch jobs from Tencent to another company, but I'm worried that Tencent will make me sign a non-compete agreement. What should I do?"
"This... is indeed quite troublesome. No, you were doing quite well at Tencent, why do you suddenly want to switch jobs?"
"Ugh, the pressure is too much, I'm almost losing all my hair."
"I've lost all my hair... Hey! I've thought of a solution, but it might be a bit unethical."
"What method?"
"You can pretend to have a serious illness, then deliberately spread the news in the company, perform it in a crowded place, and when the company is buzzing about it, download a medical record from the internet, Photoshop it yourself, and use it to resign. At that point, there shouldn't be any problems."
"Is that all?"
"Yes, usually at this time, employers are afraid that you will die suddenly on the job, which would be a big problem for them. They would not only have to pay compensation, but also be affected by public opinion. So when you resign, they would be happy for you to leave as soon as possible."
"Hmm, I think we can give it a try."
"Moreover, this method is both offensive and defensive. If the company insists that you sign a non-compete agreement, you can say that you are not leaving the company, but are taking a long leave to see a doctor. In this way, the company cannot fire you because you are sick."
"Good idea. I knew I came to the right person. Lawyers are indeed wicked."
My best friend's face darkened. "I didn't even charge you for giving you advice, and you still dare to talk about my heart? I'll eat you out of house and home today!"
"Waiter, I'd like to order!"
"Okay, ma'am, what would you like to order?"
"This, this, this."
"You only eat this much? Don't try to save me money. Order two more main dishes."
"You said it yourself, waiter. Bring out everything except the three you just mentioned."
