Chapter 192 Applying Knowledge
The contract was drafted by the company's legal department.
It fully incorporates the rules and regulations of the entertainment industry, with contract lengths ranging from a minimum of five years to a maximum of fifteen years.
From the perspective of working-class people, this timeframe is indeed too long.
But An Jin isn't an employee; she's the boss.
Her only act of conscience was to provide basic guarantees: after a one-month probationary period, the company would provide all five social insurances and one housing fund, a base salary of 8,000 yuan with no responsibility, accommodation provided but meals not, and a 60/40 commission split (60% for the company and 40% for the employee).
After a full year of service, the commission split was changed to 50/50, and thereafter the commission was changed every year of service, from 60/40 to 80/20.
It was precisely because of such good treatment that Lin Yushu signed the contract so quickly.
He raised his drink and, amidst the cheers of the crowd, smiled as he looked at Zhang Yuanyuan.
If she can do it, why can't I?
Lin Yushu was taken back to his dormitory with the contract in hand.
He sent the terms of the contract to close friends.
Friend #1: Yushu, you really became a live streamer? Which company is it? The pay seems pretty good.
Friend #2: You dare to sign a ten-year contract of servitude? Are you out of your mind?
Friend #3: Holy crap (‵o′)凸, you and An'an are really getting together in real life!
After replying to all his friends' messages, Lin Yushu smiled and drifted off to sleep.
On the other side.
On the way back, An Jin and the others chatted casually.
Zhang Yuanyuan asked in confusion, "An'an, why did you give me a B-level contract directly? Didn't you say you'd give me a C-level contract?"
The company's contracts are divided into three types, represented by a, b, and c respectively.
The A-level contract offers the best benefits, with a base salary starting at 10,000, but it has the longest term, 15 years.
The B-level contract offers the next best benefits, with a base salary of 8,000 and a ten-year term.
The C-level contract offers the worst benefits, with a base salary of only 5,000 and a term of only five years.
An Jin patted Zhang Yuanyuan's not-so-bright little head: "Didn't you notice that Lin Yushu is even more handsome in person than in the video?"
Zhang Yuanyuan noticed: "Does this have anything to do with the contract?"
An Jin and Yan Qing exchanged a glance and sighed, "Silly Yuan Yuan, is it possible that beauty itself is a scarce resource?"
If An Jin could successfully attract traffic even to Zhang Yuanyuan, then Lin Yushu would be even more capable.
A C-level contract wasn't very attractive to Lin Yushu.
A job paying 5,000 is still quite easy for college graduates to find in first-tier cities.
Since An Jin thought Lin Yushu was a good person, she naturally wanted to keep him on the job, and the only way to do that was to offer him more money.
The job pays 8,000 RMB with no liability, includes accommodation close to the company, and the company also pays social insurance and housing fund contributions.
This job is considered very good in the market.
Moreover, besides the basic benefits, there's a huge carrot dangling in front of this job.
To become a major internet celebrity.
"Qingqing, how's things at the company? Is all the equipment ready?"
Yan Qing nodded: "The company has made all the arrangements, and we've almost finished recruiting people."
The only difficult issues are finance and legal matters.
An Jin, the finance manager, plans to hire her own people. Yan Qing has many relatives; his parents run a chain of restaurants, and many relatives want to send their children to work in his family, including some who studied accounting.
When An Jin couldn't find a satisfactory accountant, Yan Qing turned to his parents for help. Not long after, his parents found a suitable accountant among their relatives and sent him over.
If finance professionals are hard to find, legal professionals are even harder to find.
An Jin is still using the legal department of one of Chen Su's subsidiaries.
The thought of the makeshift company gave An Jin a headache.
"No wonder people say it's not that we're afraid of rich kids squandering their money, but that we're afraid of them starting their own businesses. I feel like my company has only been established for a few days, and I haven't done anything yet, but I've already spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on all sorts of things."
This does not include the cost of An Jin's dormitory room.
Just like a money-devouring beast.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuanyuan asked curiously, "An'an, the company is almost ready, when will you start recruiting?"
An Jin shook her head and said, "There's no rush to hire people."
Ping An Media is different from other companies.
An Jin needs to attract viewers to the company's new live streamers. If she recruits seventeen or eighteen live streamers at once, not to mention whether the company's finances can support it, the fans in the live stream room will definitely be cursing her out.
"Focus on Lin Yushu first, and promote him first."
An Jin looked at Yan Qing: "Didn't the company hire two assistants last week? Tell those two assistants to go and serve him tomorrow."
Zhang Yuanyuan's eyes widened: "They even have assistants to serve them! An'an, I want one too!"
Yan Qing also felt this was a bit outrageous: "Isn't this praising him a little too much?"
An Jin said, "Don't worry about these things, just listen to me. By the way, tomorrow you need to call all the makeup artists, stylists, dance instructors, and so on, and bring them to the company."
Yan Qing said seriously, "An'an, is this all a big fuss?"
He turned to look at An Jin with suspicion.
An Jin smiled slyly: "What do you mean by making a big fuss? These people are meant to serve the company's streamers. Before, when the company didn't have any streamers, I didn't say anything about them being idle. Now that the company has new streamers, we definitely have to get them moving."
An Jin put her hands on her hips and looked at Yan Qing and Zhang Yuanyuan: "I spend money every single day, and their idleness is just a waste of my money."
Besides, Lin Yushu naturally has a face that makes him good at making money.
An Jin, of course, wanted to find a way to make him work wholeheartedly.
Praise to death is the simplest method.
Since she couldn't afford to spend money like Chen Su, she could only put in the effort in the details.
Grandet*An Jin issued the order that evening.
Lin Yushu felt it early the next morning.
Two assistants arrived with breakfast, calling out "Brother Lin" repeatedly, and began circling around Lin Yushu.
The three of them took a taxi to the company, and as soon as they entered, even more people surrounded them.
Makeup artist, fashion stylist, one-on-one dance teacher.
Despite the company being so large, Lin Yushu, who was working there for the first time, felt that the company was exceptionally small.
So small that there were people all around him.
Trying on clothes, practicing dance.
After eight hours of work, Xue Mingyue called Lin Yushu into her office.
"How was your first day at work? How was it?"
Xue Mingyue gently inquired about Lin Yushu's opinion.
Lin Yushu, beaming, said, "I feel great."
Xue Mingyue patted Lin Yushu on the shoulder: "Our company has just been established, and there are still many things we haven't done well enough. But you know An'an, she has always cared about you fans. After you signed the contract last night, An'an came directly to me. Do you know what An'an said to me?"
Lin Yushu's face flushed with excitement: "What did An'an say?"
Xue Mingyue said, "An'an said that since you are her fan and came because you believe in her, she will definitely not let you down."
Xue Mingyue looked at Lin Yushu with a smile and whispered to him, "I won't say many nice things, I just want to tell you one thing."
"The company will not recruit any other streamers besides you within the next six months."
Lin Yushu didn't understand Xue Mingyue's words at first, until he heard the last sentence.
"We're not recruiting...other streamers?!"
For half a year, the entire company only promoted him? That's simply unbelievable.
Sunlight streamed through the blinds onto the bright floor, filling Lin Yushu with a tremendous sense of surprise.
He met Xue Mingyue's eyes and said sincerely, "May I thank An'an in person?"
Xue Mingyue said, "More than gratitude, I believe An'an would like to see your success."
