Lu Fan squeezed Jiang Manyue's hand:
"Risk? Acquiring a soy sauce factory is risky enough. Don't worry, it's a factory that hasn't gone bankrupt in all these years, and it's impossible for it to go bankrupt after I take it over."
Jiang Manyue is not someone who can be dismissed with just a few words.
Lu Fan then began to explain his livestreaming plans.
Jiang Manyue had already heard about it while she was in the cafeteria, and upon hearing it, she couldn't help but sigh:
"And you're still talking? You haven't even started work yet, and you've already invited more than a dozen live streamers. Isn't that a bit too much?"
Lu Fan laughed: "These people are only on probation. They'll need some training before they can officially start working."
The trial period salary is 15 percent higher than the previous job of these anchors.
The trial period lasts for three months, and those who fail to meet sales targets will be eliminated that month.
"Of the dozen or so people, it would be good if two or three were left in the end."
Jiang Manyue hesitated and said, "Won't such great pressure make them run away with the buckets?"
Lu Fan was eating and almost choked, but upon hearing this, he burst into laughter:
“The salary and benefits during the probation period are already higher than those of our peers, and they will only be more after the probation period, plus various commissions and bonuses. Who would turn down money?” Jiang Manyue finally felt relieved.
Now that Lu Fan's bottom line and requirements have been clearly defined, Wang Wei, as the sales manager, has no reason to go against her boss.
Once all operations were underway and the livestreamers were in place, she immediately began promoting and distributing the products.
The streamers weren't newcomers and had their own fans, but it still wasn't enough for Lu Fan: "Give out 10,000 barrels as a giveaway."
With experienced soy sauce factory workers around, the quality of the soy sauce is guaranteed. Modern consumers value value for money, and besides, Lu Fan is well-versed in the market...
Their position is already among the high-end population.
Wang Wei thought for a moment and asked, "How long will the event last?"
Each 500ml container costs around ten yuan to produce. Giving away 10,000 containers would be like giving away 100,000 yuan for free.
"Let's tentatively set it at half a month. Customers who use soy sauce can't sustain themselves for long with just a small amount. We'll know the customer return rate after half a month."
Wang Wei was extremely surprised. This President Lu really didn't value money at all. In half a month, that meant he was going to give away 1.5 million yuan for nothing.
Seeing Wang Wei hesitate, Lu Fan told her, "Just focus on your sales, don't worry about anything else."
Wang Wei agreed, knowing that she was just an employee and that it was not her place to comment on the boss's decisions, whether they were right or wrong.
After confirming his relationship with Wang Wei, Lu Fan made a special trip to the studios of the other anchors.
The group of them were gathered together, discussing their livestream strategy, how to promote themselves, and what activities they should organize.
Although they are competitors within the same company, it's healthy competition. "Hello, Mr. Lu!"
Upon seeing Lu Fan, the anchors quickly stood up and greeted him respectfully.
Lu Fan nodded.
The male and female anchors looked good after their makeup and hair were done, and their delivery was also excellent. After all, they were hired at high salaries; there's no reason why someone with money couldn't hire someone capable.
After Lu Fan and the others finished their first live stream, he asked, "How was it? Did you get used to it on the first day?"
They didn't immediately ask about order performance.
The streamers looked at each other, and one of the bolder ones spoke first:
"I'm adapting alright, just doing the same things as before, but marketing isn't going very smoothly, and there aren't many orders coming in."
Lu Fan didn't criticize them too much. After all, these were newly opened live streaming rooms, not those famous big streamers. So it was fine if the performance was poor.
Everything is difficult at the beginning.
This is the first business that Lu Fan personally participated in operating after arriving in Nanshan City.
He didn't seem particularly nervous, and after looking around, he didn't have much to offer.
After all, everyone has their own expertise; they know more about the things broadcasters do than I do.
"Give out more benefits and orders; things will get better in the first two weeks."
He seemed more confident than the other anchors.
After Lu Fan left, the streamers, during their time off from their broadcasts, couldn't help but start talking about their boss:
"This Mr. Lu, I think he was once ranked among the top ten young people in the country? He's so young and handsome. By the way, does he have a girlfriend?"
"Girlfriend? Your kids are old enough to run errands already. Stop thinking about such things. Just use a beauty filter and hook up with a few big spenders. Entrepreneurs of this caliber wouldn't play real games with us!"
"What are you saying? Don't be so filthy-minded. Do you think everyone else has a heart as bad as yours?"
"Hey, stop arguing! We haven't even settled on a job yet, and we don't even know if we'll pass the probation period. Now you're like a toad trying to eat swan meat!"
Lu Fan had no idea that his visit to the streamers' workspace would trigger an internal competition storm.
Even if he knew, he wouldn't really care.
After visiting the live streaming studios, Lu Fan wandered around the company and then approached Lü Qiuyi.
Lu Qiuyi was far from idle; she was even busier than the livestreamers. "Ms. Lu, what brings you here?"
Seeing that Lu Qiuyi and the other legal staff were so busy that they hadn't even noticed him, Lu Fan had no choice but to knock on the door himself.
When Lü Qiuyi saw Lu Fan, she was quite surprised: "Is it about work? Please wait a moment."
