"Chairman, this is really unnecessary. It will increase our cost, and we might not be able to make a profit next year!" He Watermelon said helplessly.
"I don't need you to doubt me! I just need you to carry out my orders! " Boss Jia stopped smiling and glared at He Watermelon. He Watermelon trembled and nodded obediently.
"You don't have to worry about profits, because I don't need the Daqian Group to make a profit. I can even subsidize all the losses of the Daqian Group in the future. I just need you to cover the whole country with our shipping capacity in three years!"
"Oh right, in order to improve the service quality of our company, I think the Daqian Group can also recruit some people from various service outlets. Don't let the shop owners come to our outlets to purchase goods. We need to change their mindset and ideas, and take the initiative to deliver the goods to the shop owners!" Boss Jia added.
"What!" He Watermelon felt dizzy. Boss Jia actually asked the Daqian Group to deliver goods to all the basic shops and outlets, instead of letting the shop owners purchase goods themselves and covering the whole country.
There were more than 3,000 administrative districts at the county level and above in the country. If they hired 10 people in each district, they would have to add 30,000 new employees.
If they calculated according to the Daqian Group's minimum wage of 2,000 yuan a month, they would have to pay nearly 60 million yuan a month!
At this moment, He Watermelon felt like he was going to explode.
"Boss, do we have to do this?" He Watermelon looked at Boss Jia pitifully.
"Of course!" Boss Jia nodded.
"Then I only have one request!" He Watermelon swallowed his saliva. "These people can't be considered as official employees of the Daqian Group. Their wages will be calculated according to commission and the local minimum wage!"
"Well … I'll leave it to you!" Boss Jia thought for a moment. The entire Daqian Group headquarters had less than 30,000 employees. If the Daqian Group added 30,000 official employees at once, it would be terrifying.
Well, don't blame He Watermelon for being ruthless. If the Daqian Commercial Group really treated all these workers as regular workers, then He Watermelon probably wouldn't be able to make a profit for a few years.
After sending off He Watermelon, whose footsteps were a little shaky and felt that 1996 was even scarier than 1995, Boss Jia received a report from the youngest subsidiary of the Daqian Group: Daqian E-Sports.
At this time, the Daqian eSports General Manager was a middle-aged man named Huang Xuzhong. This was a somewhat unfamiliar name because this person had never appeared before.
Huang Xuzhong was originally a commentator for CCTV's sports broadcasts. However, he was fired for playing Minesweeper on CCTV's computer during work.
At that time, Boss Jia was planning to hire an official commentator for the Daqian 4WD Race, so he found Huang Xuzhong and asked him to try commentating a few races. He found that Huang Xuzhong was not bad, so he signed the contract.
However, in the actual process, Huang Xuzhong showed amazing organizational skills. At first, he was just a commentator, but later, he began to manage the layout of the scene, and later on, the process of the scene. In the end, there was no place in the entire competition that Huang Xuzhong did not interfere with!
In the end, the person in charge of the competition couldn't take it anymore and asked for Huang Xuzhong to be fired.
Originally, this kind of person should have been fired directly. However, when the report was reviewed by Boss Jia, Boss Jia felt that this person's name was very interesting. Then, he looked at the information and found that Huang Xuzhong had been given three demerits in the company, all for using the company's computer to play games.
This piqued Boss Jia's interest, and he personally chatted with Huang Xuzhong for an hour. Then, Huang Xuzhong was transferred from the 4WD Race project to the Pokemon International Championship.
At first, he was an executive member of the organizing committee. However, due to the terrible performance of the organizing committee chairman in Paris, and Huang Xuzhong's suggestion in advance that the number of participants should be set at around ten thousand during the preparation process, proved Huang Xuzhong's foresight. Therefore, Huang Xuzhong was promoted to the position of the organizing committee chairman.
When the European competition ended, Boss Jia decided to gather all the competitions together and set up an esports company to run them. Huang Xuzhong became the general manager of the new company.
"I heard that you stayed in the office for three days straight playing Diablo. Are you okay?" Boss Jia asked with a smile when he saw Huang Xuzhong.
"Reporting to the chairman, I played after work. I definitely didn't play games during work hours!" Huang Xuzhong was shocked and immediately raised his hand to report.
"It's fine. It's fine even if you play games during work hours!" Boss Jia laughed and said, "In the future, Diablo will also be one of the company's competitions. You've done your job by playing Diablo!"
"Really? Boss? "Huang Xuzhong was suddenly excited. He wondered if he had received an imperial edict.
However, the next second, Boss Jia added, "But if you make any mistakes and delay your work because of playing games, I'll punish you by banning you from playing games for three years!"
"Trust me, I'll make sure that you'll never play games again!" Boss Jia said darkly. Huang Xuzhong was sweating profusely. He swore to God that he would never do such a thing.
In the end, Huang Xuzhong reported the results of Daqian Esports. The profits weren't much, only around two hundred thousand USD.
Although Daqian Esports received a lot of sponsorship fees, Daqian Esports invested a lot of money to prepare for the competition. They bought a lot of equipment, so the cost was almost offset.
However, Huang Xuzhong swore to God that the equipment could last for at least five years. In other words, the cost of the equipment in the next five years would be much lower than the first year.
"How's the preparation for WCG coming along?" Boss Jia asked impatiently. He didn't want to bother with this guy who swore all the time.
"Boss, all the preparation work has started. But are we really going to hold the first competition at the Imperial Capital Stadium?" Huang Xuzhong asked weakly.
Huang Xuzhong could already imagine himself being scolded by countless parents and the public if he held a competition at the Imperial Capital Stadium.
"Let's do it there!" Boss Jia nodded. "So far, which games have you selected as the competition events?"
"There are a total of seven competitions!" Huang Xuzhong said immediately. "First, Pokemon and Red Alert. Other than that, there are Sword and Saber Divine Realm, Diablo, Tomb Raider, Crazyracing Kartrider, and Warcraft!"
"Okay!" Boss Jia nodded. "So, what do you think about the selection of contestants?"
"I'm still thinking about it!" Huang Xuzhong hesitated. "Our team prefers an invitation system. We'll invite some well-known players to participate as contestants!"
"No way, absolutely not!" Boss Jia shook his head. "The contestants that we invite have no credibility. The contestants must be selected through the competition!"
"But boss, other than Pokemon and Red Alert, we don't have any other global competitions for other games," Huang Xuzhong said awkwardly.
"Then let's have a global qualifier before the official competition. We can hold the Pokemon and Red Alert competitions at the same time. We can use the existing venues to hold global qualifiers for a few other games. In the end, the top three of each substation will qualify to participate in WCG!" Boss Jia said.
"Chairman, you're so wise. Your idea is so great. Why didn't I think of such a great idea!" Huang Xuzhong said with an extremely complimentary tone and attitude. "Chairman, you're my guiding light. My admiration for you is like the surging river, continuous and endless. It's also like the Flying Dragon Face. You can't lose …"
"Get out of here …"
Huang Xuzhong rolled out quickly. However, as he rolled out, he muttered to himself in confusion, "What the hell is the Flying Dragon Face?"
