Chapter 617: Hitting the wall (asking for monthly tickets and subscriptions)
You Zhihong really felt a mixture of sorrow and joy today.
He originally thought that after announcing to everyone in the conference room that October Culture would soon be acquired by Dongyi Film and Television, he would be able to usher in a new wave of personal worship because he had found a father for October Culture, a wealthy and powerful father.
But no one expected that Zhou Ming, who was least likely to have an accident, would actually have an accident.
Zhou Ming is actually going to Baiqian Media.
Although You Zhihong was so angry that he vomited blood, he thought that this was only the worst outcome. Since Zhou Ming promised him not to poach people, given Zhou Ming's personality, he would only take a few people with him at most.
But damn.
This bastard Zhou Ming has actually learned how to fool people.
He actually took away two-thirds of the entire October Culture staff, especially the editing and screenwriting departments, all of whom resigned and went to Baiqian Media.
How could this be a sudden decision?
In You Zhihong's opinion, Zhou Ming was really scheming this. Not only Zhou Ming, You Zhihong thought Zhang Chao was the same.
I was so good to you, but you betrayed me? ?
Ten minutes later, Zhang Chao came to You Zhihong's office. At this time, You Zhihong looked at Zhang Chao and was about to explode. However, he still thought about what his brother-in-law said, that is, he must restrain himself. For this reason, You Zhihong said to Zhang Chao: "Chao'er, sit down."
Zhang Chao sat down, but he didn't say anything. He had already said everything he needed to say when he said he would take the editing department away.
He didn't think he owed You Zhihong anything.
But after all, we are childhood friends, so it is better to part ways amicably.
For this reason, Xiao Ning had also advised him when he called him just now. No matter what, why did they have to make a fuss to the point of breaking up? ?
All I can say is that Zhang Chao really envies Xiao Ning. Although he is not young anymore, he lives happily every day like an idiot.
How happy.
When Zhang Chao told You Zhihong that he was going to Baiqian Media, their relationship had actually already gone.
"Chao'er, you can go to Baiqian Media. After all, we are childhood friends. If you want to pursue something good, I certainly can't stop you. But you have to stay with me as the other people in the editing department. I won't hide it from you. This time, Dongyi Film and Television acquired October Culture because of our people. Besides, going to Dongyi Film and Television is more promising than Baiqian Media."
You Zhihong said to Zhang Chao: "As long as you keep the people, you can ask for any conditions you want. I can give you a few more months' salary and an extra compensation of 1 million. What do you think???"
Looking at You Zhihong, Zhang Chao suddenly laughed.
At this moment, Zhang Chao actually had the same idea as Zhou Ming, which was, what the hell had he been doing earlier? ?
People outside are saying how good You Zhihong is to the editing department. People in the entire company also think how good You Zhihong is to the editing department. Even You Zhihong himself thinks so, but Zhang Chao is extremely annoyed.
They were childhood friends, and went to elementary school, junior high school, and high school together. Although they studied different majors in college, they were in the same city. In short, their circles of friends overlapped too much.
Then, at every gathering, no matter it was a gathering in elementary school, junior high school, high school, university, or company, You Zhihong would always talk about how good he was to Zhang Chao, and that it was all his credit that Zhang Chao had a car and a house in the capital.
But what was "October Culture" like back then?
At that time, Zhang Chao was already a small leader in another film and television company. He felt that no matter what, You Zhihong was his childhood friend, so of course he supported his childhood friend's entrepreneurship.
Zhang Chao can be said to be the only veteran.
At that time, all the other elders left.
Later, eight years ago, when Zhang Yan took people away, it was also Zhang Chao and Zhou Ming who stabilized the situation. Otherwise, if Zhang Chao took people away, then "October Culture" would have been destroyed long ago.
What is the result? ?
However, You Zhihong did not feel the slightest bit of gratitude towards himself. He even felt that it was what he should do.
What Zhou Ming said was that he didn't owe You Zhihong anything.
Zhang Chao also doesn't owe You Zhihong anything.
If there hadn't been any suitable opportunities in recent years, he would have left long ago.
It's ok now.
I went to Baiqian Media, a company I already liked, especially the editing skills of Yu Xiaoshu there, whom I could learn from up close.
So what's there to hesitate about?
For Zhang Chao, these people under him were trained by him bit by bit. If he wants to leave, then of course he has to take them all with him.
There is nothing to say about this.
Others will definitely take it away.
As for the compensation mentioned by You Zhihong.
hehe.
He, Zhang Chao, really doesn't need it.
Not to mention giving him 1 million, he would not accept it even if you gave him 10 million.
This time, Zhang Chao wanted to let everyone see that he, Zhang Chao, did not need to rely on You Zhihong.
"Zhihong, we are childhood friends. What's the point of talking about compensation? Over the years, our relationship has been there. But this time I'm going to Baiqian Media not because of the money. You know, I've always admired Yu Xiaoshu's editing skills. Because Yu Xiaoshu's editing is exquisite, I want to learn from him."
Zhang Chao said to You Zhihong, "This opportunity is really not easy to come by. I can't take the editing department away because everyone wants to follow me. I think I'll talk to them later. If they want to stay, then let them stay."
MMP
This time You Zhihong really couldn't control himself. He said directly: "Zhang Chao, don't play dumb. If you hadn't talked to them, would they have been able to leave together? And how have I treated you over the years? The salary I give you is the highest in the industry, and you have the highest bonus in the entire company. Without me, would you be able to gain a foothold in the capital? Without me, would your children be able to go to school in the capital? Without me..."
hehe.
Zhang Chao looked at You Zhihong and said, "If you weren't there, I tell you, I could do it too. And You Zhihong, you have to understand one thing. You invited me here in the first place. What was your 'October Culture'? I was already doing pretty well at that time. I didn't make a penny in my two years at your company. I was living off my own savings. Did I say anything?"
Now that the relationship has fallen out, there is no need to save face anymore.
Zhang Chao has been enduring for a long time.
"You Zhihong, do you know how people outside view me, Zhang Chao? Everyone thinks that I, Zhang Chao, am your lackey. Everyone thinks that everything I, Zhang Chao, have achieved is related to you, You Zhihong. You basically say this in front of your friends, classmates, and even my family. I have never said anything, right..."
Zhang Chao said calmly, "We shared hardships at the beginning, but what happened later? Isn't happiness also shared happiness? Why do you get all the credit?"
You Zhihong was shocked when he heard Zhang Chao's words: "Zhang Chao, we are childhood friends, why are you so picky about me?"
"Hahaha, You Zhihong, do you know why everyone in the company wants to leave you? It's because you always have double standards. You seem to be very nice to others, but your kindness is all utilitarian, and you demand that everyone repay you a hundredfold. You are like this to me, to Zhou Ming, and even to everyone in the company..."
Zhang Chao laughed out loud: "If you still remember that we were childhood friends, you wouldn't treat me like this. I don't really want to talk to you, but I just think we have to make it clear between us. I, Zhang Chao, don't owe you anything, you owe me something."
After saying that, Zhang Chao slammed the door and walked out.
Now that the relationship has fallen out, there is no need to say anything more.
Outside the door, Xiao Ning caught up with Zhang Chao: "Chao'er, is it really going to come to this?"
"You don't understand."
Zhang Chao patted Xiao Ning's shoulder gently, then turned and left.
In the office, You Zhihong was roaring madly and smashing everything he could.
The more confident a person is, the more inferior he or she tends to be.
No, it cannot be called inferiority complex, it should be called self-conceit.
You Zhihong was quite confident before. He believed that he had strong control over "October Culture" because "October Culture" was You Zhihong's greatest confidence.
But who could have expected it.
This confidence was actually lost just like that.
You Zhihong never expected that almost two-thirds of the entire company would leave.
How can this be tolerated??
People.
The more you think about it, the more extreme you will become.
Now You Zhihong thinks that his home has been robbed and he has been betrayed. He does not think that Zhang Chao and Zhou Ming had no contact before. On the contrary, You Zhihong believes that this was done by Zhang Chao and Zhou Ming together. They contacted each other privately, which eventually led to everyone leaving.
That must be the case.
Baiqian Media.
Yu Xiaoshu.
You Zhihong sat down with a slightly decadent look.
At present, he can be said to have suffered heavy losses.
Since two-thirds of the people will go directly to Baiqian Media, the acquisition cost will probably be greatly reduced, and may even be reduced by 50%.
50% off.
Damn it.
Thinking about it, You Zhihong's heart was bleeding. Xiao Ning pushed the door open at this time. Looking at his brother-in-law You Zhihong, he didn't want to say anything. He said directly: "Talk to the others privately. As long as they don't leave, everyone's salary can be tripled, and they will be rewarded with 100,000 yuan."
It is obvious that You Zhihong is ready to bleed.
Unfortunately, it was useless.
If he had done this to his employees earlier, it would have been effective. But now that all his employees have given up on him, to be honest, doing this is of no use at all.
Online, Anime House has exploded.
When the news first broke, everyone was actually skeptical, because they thought how the hell is this possible? ?
But it's different now.
Because more and more people are proving this.
"Hahaha, October Culture was actually robbed like this. I can only say that Baiqian Media is awesome."
"You don't know that many people in October Culture have already had enough of You Zhihong. You Zhihong has really been bad to them over the years."
"My brother works at October Culture. Let me tell you, not only does he make little money in the entire company, but he also has to work a lot."
"That's true. My sister originally thought You Zhihong was great and went to October Culture for her dream. But then, hehe, You Zhihong turned out to be a big liar."
"As a former employee of October Culture, even Zhou Ming is leaving. You can imagine how much You Zhihong is going too far."
"In short, I just want to say one thing, that is, it's good for Zhou Ming to leave."
…
Many people began to reveal information at this time, including some so-called "my brothers" and "my sisters", as well as some former employees.
In short, October Culture seemed to have suddenly gone from being a so-called model company and the only seedling of Chinese animation to being condemned by everyone.
Public opinion is sometimes so strange.
They can praise you, but basically they can also scold you.
Sometimes, netizens switch between them seamlessly.
He may be praising you in the last second, and scolding you in the next second.
At the same time, at 3 pm, You Zhihong wrote a letter. This letter was obviously quite touching. He first reviewed his original intention of founding October Culture, which was to revive Chinese comics. Along the way, he encountered many difficulties and got through them, but he did not expect to be stabbed in the back this time.
Yes.
You Zhihong detailed the betrayal of Zhou Ming and Zhang Chao, who stole the company. At the same time, You Zhihong hoped that the Chinese comics industry could be united, but that such means should never be used.
Finally, You Zhihong also talked about Baiqian Media. He admires Yu Xiaoshu and has great respect for Yu Xiaoshu's creative talent. He is also very happy that Yu Xiaoshu has brought a revival to science fiction. He would even be very happy if Yu Xiaoshu could bring a revival to Chinese comics, etc.
In short, he praised Yu Xiaoshu for a while, and then praised himself. He even expressed his willingness to cooperate with Yu Xiaoshu and to revive Chinese animation with Yu Xiaoshu, but he hoped that Yu Xiaoshu would not recruit his own people and would not stab him in the back.
…
This article written by You Zhihong is quite provocative. He also messaged Yu Xiaoshu, expressing his hope for a reply.
It is obvious that You Zhihong is ready to directly manipulate public opinion.
He does this often.
When Zhang Yan ran away with her friends, he used a short essay to nail Zhang Yan to the pillar of shame. At that time, Zhang Yan was scolded all over the place, and even her family was cyber-bullied.
This makes Zhang Yan and You Zhihong irreconcilable.
This time, You Zhihong was once again trying to manipulate public opinion in this way, and he was quite smart. He did not want to scold Yu Xiaoshu. He wanted to build a ladder for Yu Xiaoshu and morally blackmail him.
Unfortunately, You Zhihong hit a wall this time.
If it were someone else, then perhaps You Zhihong could really achieve his goal, and even if he couldn't, he would still be able to stand on the moral high ground.
But this time he met Yu Xiaoshu.
