The atmosphere at Yunfeng Media was very tense at that moment.
Everyone held their breath.
The sounds of angry cursing and things breaking on the floor could always be heard coming from Xu Shaoan's office.
At this moment, Xu Shaoan glared angrily at the managers in front of him.
He had never been so angry before. For the first time, he felt that in an unfamiliar field, let alone thriving, even survival had become a challenge.
He thought these people could at least help him, but he never expected that they would make him pay such a high price.
What he wants to do is to destroy Haochi Media, not to turn it into an influencer incubation agency.
If he's running an influencer incubation agency, why would he change his strategy?
But right now, his company is still intended to be an influencer incubation agency.
After he spent money on these female live streamers, their follower counts increased by millions.
But what about the food business that his company was originally supposed to focus on? Very little.
The businesses that partnered with him also complained that their business had been worse since signing with Fengfeng than before they signed with Haochi Media.
Sometimes, it's already considered very good if a dozen or twenty people come in a day.
With a dozen or twenty people, they couldn't even recoup their initial investment, let alone the cost of buying groceries.
Those merchants were starting to regret it.
Xu Shaoan angrily pointed at a manager in charge of the live streamers: "Didn't you say that once these female live streamers have a large number of followers, they can bring us more customers? What's going on now? The conversion rate isn't even one percent?"
"Mr. Xu, we don't know either. In fact, many people have been paying attention to our software, and the number of users is increasing."
The manager was very flustered.
He was afraid that Xu Shaoan would fire him.
Originally, he did want to resign from his previous job at Feng, and he had already submitted his resignation letter. However, after Xu Shaoan arrived, his salary was doubled.
He couldn't get that kind of double treatment at any other company.
So he's glad his resignation wasn't approved, otherwise he would have left.
"What's the use of having a lot of customers? Huh? What I want are these people to eat at our merchants' places, I want them to come to the live stream to buy snacks, instant food, chicken breast, and everything else we get, not to watch that woman dance in the live stream."
Xu Shaoan glared angrily, afraid that he might break his own teeth.
The manager kept his head down and didn't dare to speak.
"And what about you guys? What kind of advertising did you do? Didn't I give you money to run ads? Three million and you can't even produce a decent ad?"
"And you, I told you to find A-list actresses to sell our products, where are they? They still haven't shown up."
He cursed them one by one, "I paid you all to put on a show for me, huh? Can't you show me some real results? Otherwise, get out of here!"
Xu Shaoan's mouth was dry as he finished shouting. He pointed to the door and said, "Get out of here now and come up with a workable solution right away. I need a workable solution. I need to see customer conversion rates, I need to see our company's sales increase, and I need to see merchants come to us tomorrow and say that their sales have gone up. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
The group quickly ran out.
After the door behind them closed, they felt as if they had escaped a disaster.
"call!"
The manager who was the first to be scolded let out a sigh of relief.
"Tell me, what's going on here? We're not even in this industry. With the current funding, we could easily create at least three female influencers worth tens of millions each. That would be much better than working in the food industry."
A manager standing nearby quickly added, "Speaking of which, I have indeed heard some rumors. It is said that President Xu was fired because of President Chen of Haochi Media. He had previously started a company called Haopin, but it couldn't compete with Haochi Media. I guess it's because of a grudge between him and Haopin Media."
"Damn it, isn't this insane?"
The other person rolled their eyes, feeling like they'd come to the wrong company.
"Alright, stop complaining. At least he paid more."
A female manager said something and went back to her post.
Upon hearing that the offer was generous, all three of them shut their mouths.
This is the benefit of having more chips.
Inside the office, Xu Shaoan covered his face, feeling such pain for the first time.
He felt that he was inferior to Chen Cixiu in every way.
Why?
Why is this happening?
In terms of status, position, and ability, he is clearly better than Chen Cixiu, so why? Why does Jiang Yu like Chen Cixiu instead of him?
Why would Jiang Yu rather have a whirlwind marriage with someone he's never met before than agree to Liu Xian's blind date?
He worked so hard, going abroad to continue his studies and get a job, just so he could stand by Jiang Yu's side and win her favor, but she still couldn't see him, just like before.
What about Chen Cixiu?
Why would a kid who just graduated not long ago be worthy of her attention?
Also, why was he a step behind Chen Cixiu?
How many times has this happened?
It's always like this, how can he possibly lose to Chen Cixiu?
It felt like there was a voice in his brain constantly calling him a piece of trash.
If the phone hadn't rung, he would have already pushed the water glass in front of him to the ground.
"Hello?"
Xu Shaoan answered the phone, his voice low and deep.
"I'm meeting someone this afternoon. I've sent you the address. Don't mess this up."
A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Upon hearing this, Xu Shaoan replied, "I understand."
After hanging up the phone, he tidied himself up a bit, his eyes turning sinister.
Knock knock knock!
The secretary walked in with the documents. "Mr. Xu, these are the merchants you were supposed to talk to last week. They have already signed the contracts. There are no other merchants of this type in the city right now. We are just waiting for your signature."
Xu Shaoan took it, looked at it, and asked, "Are you sure there's nothing left?"
"That's what the investigation team said. They've been running around all month, and there are only a few places in the whole city that serve this type of snack, and they're all among the best-tasting ones. They've already reached an agreement, and it will take effect once you sign it."
The secretary nodded and repeated what the investigation team had said.
She was unwilling to take responsibility.
Xu Shaoan has scolded too many people this month, and besides, she is just a secretary and not the one who should bear this responsibility.
"Okay, I'll sign it now. After I sign it, you take it to the team that specifically manages these merchants and tell them that they must ensure the quality of these merchants. If there are any complaints, they can pack their bags and get out of here."
As Xu Shaoan took out a pen to sign, he spoke to his secretary.
"Okay, Mr. Xu, I will tell them."
After the secretary finished speaking, she waited quietly for him to sign the document before leaving.
Xu Shaoan glanced at his watch, took a deep breath, and said, "Chen Cixiu, weren't you looking for this type of snack? Now I'll sign them all up, let's see how you find it then."
