"yes."
"Understood, Chairman."
Upon hearing Choi Ho-sang's order, his trusted confidants immediately responded and sprang into action, while few of the other employees gathered in the hall took any action.
Are you deaf? Didn't you hear my command?
Upon discovering this, Choi Ho-sang, who was already in a bad mood, became furious and reprimanded his employees again.
"Hurry up and get ready, or your bonuses for this month will be deducted."
Choi Ho-sang gave an impatient order, but even so, the people remained motionless, as if they hadn't heard him, and looked at him with strange expressions.
"Don't you guys take my words as your boss seriously?!"
Cui Haoxiang angrily rebuked him.
At that moment, a faint voice suddenly came.
"Mr. Cui, I need to correct a mistake you made."
Upon hearing Ye Chen speak, Cui Haoxiang abruptly turned his head and asked, puzzled:
"What error?"
“You haven’t been their boss for half an hour, so naturally they won’t listen to your orders.”
Ye Chen answered with a smile.
This was the third "little surprise" Ye Chen had prepared for Cui Haoxiang. Ye Chen had arrived more than an hour earlier, and he had brought with him a number of employees from Future Games Company.
Ye Chen brought his men here to poach talent.
Ultimately, for various reasons, the employees in the lobby were successfully persuaded.
Of course, Ye Chen didn't just poach anyone who came; he poached all of Cui Haoxiang's employees. Most of the people in the hall at that moment were elite employees of Cui Haoxiang's company, and many of them were technical talents.
Ordinary employees are too easy to recruit; these elite, technical talents are the core of the company and are extremely important.
In a normal recruitment process, finding such elite talent is extremely time-consuming and laborious, but it's much easier to find them in a large company.
The loss of these technical talents is a far greater blow to Cui Haoxiang's company than losing its office space, and it is irreversible.
These people had already submitted their resignation reports to the personnel department before Cui Haoxiang arrived.
Furthermore, some of the technical staff at Cui Haoxiang's company are still hesitant and have not yet made a decision.
"What did you say?"
Cui Haoxiang was a little upset. He suddenly turned his head and looked around at the employees in the lobby.
Ultimately, he was shocked to discover that more than half of his technical and elite employees were here!
Although these people make up a small percentage of the company's total employees, they are the core and the foundation of the company.
Many of these people were recruited by him with great difficulty through headhunting companies, but now, Ye Chen has poached more than half of them.
Fuck you!
Choi Ho-sang was so angry that his body trembled and his face turned even paler.
"You...you guys...good...very good."
Cui Haolian could barely speak.
"You abandoned my company and ran off to a new company that hasn't even opened yet. How long do you think this kid's company will last?"
Cui Haoxiang pointed at Ye Chen and addressed these technical talents.
"The gaming market in Shanghai is only so big, and the pie has already been divided up. It's impossible for a new company to rise to the level I have."
"Just wait for this little company to go bankrupt, and then you'll all lose your jobs!!!"
Cui Haoxiang has already made a prediction for Ye Chen's company: the game industry is very profitable, and many new game companies have been established in Shanghai in recent years.
But the pie is only so big. Most of these new companies have gone bankrupt, a small number are barely surviving, and only a handful have made some progress.
But none of these new companies have truly taken off, grown big and strong, and become large-scale game companies.
The competition in this industry is fierce, and there are giants like Tencent that have captured the main market share.
"Traitors, you traitors!"
"You people are just waiting to go bankrupt."
"Leave our company and go to that Future Games company? Are you guys out of your minds?"
Cui Haoxiang's confidants stood up and made sarcastic remarks about the technical talents that Ye Chen had already poached.
Continuing to work for the boss might cause a short period of instability, but once the company's new address is confirmed, everything will return to normal, and their jobs will remain stable.
But if I go to that future game company, the monthly salary will be higher, but how long can it exist?
These people are just waiting for the game company to go bankrupt and for them to lose their jobs.
"Even without an office, even without you all, I still have business, partners, and my foundation remains."
Cui Haoxiang spoke.
If we lose our office space, we can find another one; if we lose our technical talent, we can hire more, but it will take a long time.
But he still has connections and partners, and his business is still going strong, so he's not worried about not being able to recover.
These are things that a new company simply cannot compare to.
"Let's see how long you can be so smug."
Cui Haoxiang said to Ye Chen with a cold smile:
"Without connections or partners, you'll end up losing everything in a while."
Why can't you understand?
Ye Chen shook his head helplessly; Cui Haoxiang was still making a last-ditch effort.
"What do you mean?"
Seeing Ye Chen's calm demeanor, Cui Haoxiang's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly realized something was wrong.
No way, he even poached his own business partner?
No, it can't be, Cui Haoxiang's heart was in his throat.
If he loses his office address and his technical talent, as long as his partners are still there, he will only lose some money. But if his partners are gone, it will be a huge cost to his company.
Cui Haoxiang nervously took out his phone and found the phone numbers of several partners.
Choi Ho-sang attacked them one by one, starting with the first one.
The first one is fine; the other party will still cooperate with us. The second one is also fine. The third one has some issues, but we can discuss them and the problems shouldn't be too big.
Gradually, Cui Haoxiang's nervousness subsided.
Pshaw, Ye Chen is just bragging.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Cui, but our Xinhang Group has a new partner, and our long-term cooperation has been cancelled."
However, when he called his largest and most important partner, Xinhang Group, he received news that was like a thunderbolt.
The words of the boss of Xinhang Group were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Cui Haoxiang completely dumbfounded.
The first few partners who were fine were just small companies; Xinhang Group was their most important and largest partner.
What use are those small companies without Xinhang Group?
At this moment, Cui Haoxiang finally understood what Ye Chen meant; he really wasn't bluffing.
Choi Ho-sang's mental state completely collapsed.
Glug.
Choi Ho-sang's legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground.
