Chapter 170 Steady
"We've expanded a bit too quickly in the past two years. It's time to pause and stabilize. Once we digest all this, we can move forward more steadily."
Because of the Gao family's affairs, when the brothers and sisters got together, the eldest brother suggested to stabilize the situation.
Since the second sister Wei Zimo took over the company, she has successively acquired the Zhao family, the Qi family and the Gao family. These three are the big ones, and there are also several scattered small companies.
If this continues, one company will dominate the market and it will be dangerous.
"Yes, my mom also said that at home, if you take too big a step, you'll easily get into trouble. Zhou's is already big enough, and the old man is away from home all day long. My second sister has to guard against dishonest people from within the company trying to usurp power, and she has to stabilize the new situation after the layoffs and not let anyone take advantage of her. She also has to coordinate the new business, it's too difficult..."
Mr. Bai is in charge of a fairly large company and knows very well how difficult it is to be in a high position.
Bai Yichi was also using President Bai to persuade his second sister.
"As long as the meat is in front of my mouth and I can resist, then it's not a big problem."
The second sister smiled and answered very frankly.
Well……
The brothers and sisters looked at each other and thought for a while. Indeed, the meat was right in front of their mouths, and if they were asked to resist, they probably wouldn't be able to.
"So, I was deceived, so you can't blame me, right?"
Bai Yichi mentioned again how someone had set him up.
"Well, my unlucky partner got cheated and went bankrupt, so I can't blame him..."
The eldest brother continued. Fortunately, he withdrew early, otherwise he would have followed the little sister's wishes, but was cheated by his partner and went bankrupt, ending up on the streets.
He escaped, and the unfortunate fellow finally didn't end up on the streets. But he didn't care much about it. Gamblers don't remember, and if they have a little money, they still have to go. So, he just rented him a house, and it was a house in a small county town far away, and didn't care about anything else.
After that, he also believed in his younger sister's thoughts.
Bai Yichi felt like his elder brother was playing tricks on him. "How can they be the same? I was set up by someone with ulterior motives, and I screwed them back. Your partner is just plain stupid. A little gambling for fun is fine, but the fact that he's addicted to it shows he lacks willpower. It's too easy for him to be tricked into investing again."
"Regardless of investment, if it's made after careful risk assessment, it's not a scam. Who can guarantee 100% success in investment? There are always gains and losses."
San Ge also has a lot of investments. However, he is a hands-off boss, with more money than he can spend. Many people come to him with projects, and if he thinks they are good, he will invest some, otherwise he will not invest.
After investing, I can't even remember what I invested in. There are specialized investment companies that help manage it.
He would not pay attention to which project made money and which project lost money.
If you think of it, just ask the general ledger and listen to the investment director's report and that's it.
The investment company is professional and has a special accounting firm to supervise the audit, so there is no question of deceiving him.
Being a boss is so easy.
Ye Mengyu and her fourth sister Zeng Qimo’s investments are managed in a similar way.
All are left to professionals.
If you don't manage your own business, don't get involved.
I'm not stupid enough to just let hundreds of billions of dollars lie in the account and live off the interest.
[Alas... I can't help but slow down. The world is now a mess because of butterflies. I'm not familiar with it anymore, so I don't dare to make any more blind suggestions.]
Three years have passed, and so much has changed. When she first came, it took her a long time to react because of the conflict between the worlds merged from several books and her original memories, the time difference between the parallel time and space, and the plot deviations caused by the different settings of each book.
Now it is beyond recognition.
Unless she meets someone or something she is particularly sure of, it is hard to say.
"The economic situation isn't so good right now, so let's stabilize it. So many workers depend on the company for their livelihoods, and if there's even a little trouble, so many people will have a hard time."
The fourth sister is compassionate.
Not wanting to say more, he turned to Ye Mengyu and asked, "You and Xia Liangwei are making clothes. You can't leave me behind, right? She is a master of arts and crafts, but she is not as good as me in clothing design."
"Fourth sister, we want to make a modified version of traditional Chinese clothing, a new Chinese style. Can you make a new Chinese style with your degree from abroad?"
"Tsk, you're looking down on me. No matter where you learned design, the core is to showcase beauty. A certain foreign brand stole our horse-faced skirt and passed it off as original because they saw the beauty of our Chinese clothing.
How could I be worse than them?
Standing on the shoulders of giants, we will improve and strive for greater perfection. Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Is it true or false?
Ye Mengyu's face was full of distrust.
The fourth sister wanted to beat her up. "Let's find some excellent local Chinese style designers and research together. My studio can afford ten or eight designers."
Oh, okay.
As long as there is a safety net, it's fine.
"Little sister, have you decided on that variety show? You're going to do embroidery, so what are the promotional projects for the other two groups?"
"One group is Peking Opera, and the other group is Hairpin Lady."
"Have the guests been decided? I haven't heard of anyone in the industry who's good at this?"
There are quite a lot of big Qingyi actresses who come from opera, but there is definitely no Zanniang.
"It hasn't been decided yet. The guests don't have to be good at anything, and they won't be asked to do it themselves. It's mainly the flying guests who do the work. The process of the guests participating and learning is promotion. I can't embroider or make clothes, but I'm just participating. The permanent guests are just showing off their love and acting as mascots."
"I get it. Ultimately, it's a couples variety show, and traditional culture is just there to fill in the gaps."
"Almost. The main content is still about the daily life of a couple."
"Oh my god, if you and your brother-in-law participate, the ratings of this show will go through the roof. Not to mention the audience, I'm also curious about how you two get along on a daily basis. I'm curious about what kind of happy life Mr. Jiang has at home."
Well……
"Fourth sister, as the eldest aunt, isn't it a bit too much for you to say that? Why doesn't it sound like you're on my side?"
"Can you blame me? I can't cook, I can't take care of children, and I can't coax people. Besides your face, what else do you have?"
"Fourth sister, it's over. Why do I have to cook and take care of the children? What era is this? Are men still responsible for the outside world and women for the inside world? Can't I be the outside breadwinner and be responsible for making money?"
"But don't you donate all the money you earn?"
“It’s only a part of the donation.”
"Isn't that part exactly what you earned when you went out? Isn't the part you didn't donate a dividend?"
"Who said that? What I donated were my dividends, and I saved all the money I earned outside."
Tsk, the money is in your pocket anyway, you can say whatever you want.
The topic was not continued.
But in fact, as the fourth sister said, everyone is too curious about their daily interactions as a couple.
The program planner and director came to them to sign the contract and discuss the specific content of the recording.
Except for meeting Jiang Fanyu once when signing the contract, I haven't seen him since then. He just said, "My wife is the boss." Then he was so busy that he disappeared without a trace.
"It would be best if our guests could interact with each other. It would also be best if they could interact with local residents to make the show more interesting and enrich the content. We now have three alternative locations. One is Beijing, where we can record directly at home, and the other is filming at various scenic spots and historical sites.
The second one is Dali, Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake. Find a few houses by the Erhai Lake. There are many local ethnic minorities who are good at singing and dancing, so it is easy to record outdoor scenes.
The third is the grassland. The sky is vast and the wilderness is boundless. The wind blows the grass low and you can see cattle and sheep. Go to Hulunbuir and stay in the yurts by the lake. They are also very nice.
Sister Yu, which one do you prefer?
Ye Mengyu replied without a second thought, "Of course it's Beijing. I can stay at home and handle other work at any time. Don't record at home, it's not very convenient. Let's set up the scene. Rent a few farmhouses in the suburbs of Beijing, renovate them, and then they can run B&Bs to increase income. Isn't that great? Didn't a program rent a yard in the suburbs of Beijing before? I think that yard is pretty good, with such a big sunroom, I love it."
The planner kept taking note of her requests.
"By the way, who are the guests? Why don't we rent the yard and let the guests choose their own decoration plans? Isn't this something we can record? Wouldn't it be great to show it as a behind-the-scenes clip?"
The longer and more detailed the pre-preparation time is, the more dedicated the program crew is.
