A peaceful night passed. Xia Qiu arrived at the company at 9 am the next morning. There were more than 60 salespeople in the company now. The original 120 people were gradually reduced to 60. Xia Qiu looked at these people and felt a little upset. Back then, she had vowed to lead everyone in a big fight, but now she had received more than 10 million in return, while the employees below were facing the fate of being dismissed. Looking at the quiet crowd below, Xia Qiu said slowly,"I called everyone here today because I have something to ask you to make your own decisions. I've told you many times in the past that I want to lead everyone to earn big money and lead everyone to become rich and powerful, but plans can't keep up with changes. I believe everyone knows that there have been many comments attacking my novel recently, saying that we are vulgar erotic novels. There are even officials who want to ban my novel. It is said that they have already obtained evidence from the market. "After that, I asked around and found out that someone was behind this. The reason was that our books were selling too well and someone was jealous."
At this point, many people below laughed softly. It was something to be proud of if one's items sold so well that others were jealous. Xia Qiu continued,"This is only one of the problems. Another problem is that pirated books have also appeared in the market during this period of time. The emergence of these pirated books has seriously harmed our interests, which is also very unfavorable to our business development. In order to deal with these two unfavorable factors, I had no choice but to change the previous Ce Yue. Therefore, a few days ago, I found a few publishing companies, hoping that those publishing companies would share our risks. However, the publishing company's request is to take back the market in Gang City. In other words, we won't be selling any more novels in the future. That means that our company will have nothing to do in the future.
"I can only say that I'm going to break my promise to you in the past. Of course, the decision lies with you. If any of you want to leave, I'll give you three times the salary to show that I've broken my promise. If any of you want to stay, I'll also welcome you. In the future, you'll receive a salary of 1,000 yuan every month. I'll also find a new investment business as soon as possible, but you only have one chance to choose. If you stay, before you find a new investment direction, you'll have to pay me three times the salary." If you leave now, I'll give you three times your salary, including your commission. Alright, I'll give you the time to make your own choice."
After Xia Qiu finished speaking, the employees below began to whisper to each other. The scene was a little chaotic. What made Xia Qiu sad was that someone cried on the spot. Although they had only been in this company for a few months, these few months were enough to change their outlook on life. Whether it was brainwashing them every morning with the theory of being a millionaire or using money to push people forward, This kind of collective exploration of people's desire for success had never appeared in this era. This method was called multi-level marketing decades later. However, it was undeniable that this brainwashing marketing method was very effective. In the 1990s, the marketing model of multi-level marketing appeared in Gang City and was quickly spread. At that time, the mainland people's cultural level was low. In order to get rich as soon as possible, it eventually evolved into deception, imprisonment, extortion, and many other criminal acts. Many people were cheated into bankruptcy by this method. This was also why this method was illegal, but it was legal in Gang City. Even after decades, Gang City did not make it illegal.
Some people were so anxious that they wanted to cry, while others showed that they didn't care. Some people had earned tens of thousands of Jiang coins here, but they didn't know if they could find a job with such a high commission after going out. Some people had earned one or two thousand Jiang coins here, but even one or two thousand Jiang coins were higher than the wages of the workers in the factories outside. In the 1970s, the average wage in Gang City was only about one thousand Jiang coins, and the average workers in the factories were only about eight hundred Jiang coins.
The discussion gradually stopped. Xia Qiu continued,"" If you've decided to leave, register with Zhou Xue now. I'll settle your salary in the afternoon. When you register, try to leave your contact information. The company might recruit more people in the future, and you'll be the first to be considered. If you want to stay, register too. I'll make arrangements in the future."
At this moment, the new manager, Chen Liang, asked dejectedly,"" Boss, what business will you be doing if you stay? Chen Liang was the most embarrassed person, and also the one who didn't want to leave the most. He had earned nearly 40,000 Jiang dollars in the past few months, and now he was promoted to manager. However, he hadn't been in the new manager position for long, and now he had encountered such an unforeseen event. He really wanted to stay, but he didn't know what would happen if he stayed. So, he asked clearly now, so as to avoid regret in the future.
Xia Qiu was silent for a moment before saying,"I haven't decided what I'll do in the future. I'll have to slowly plan for that in the future. I don't think I'll leave the book industry." After that, Xia Qiu said to the employees," If you have any questions, you can come to my office to look for me. Chen Liang, come with me." After saying that, he went straight back to the office.
In the office, Xia Qiu looked at Chen Liang, who was sitting across from her. She smiled and said to him,"" From the first day, I knew that you were a dependable person. In the days that followed, you were indeed dependable and diligent. You were never like other employees who were proud of their achievements or negative when they encountered setbacks. You didn't make any requests from the company either, so I promoted you to manager a month later. You've done well during this period of time. Although you didn't get used to your position at the beginning, your growth was obvious to all. How about it? Are you interested in staying?"
Xia Qiu really needed a hardworking person to stay by her side. Although such a person might not be the best at times, he was definitely the most trusted employee of the boss. After hearing these words, Chen Liang did not immediately express his opinion. Instead, he said softly, Boss, I need to think about it."
Xia Qiu was a little disappointed, but she didn't push him too hard. Everyone had their own aspirations and choices." Alright, think about it. I'll wait for your reply. Okay, call Xiaoxue over."
A moment later, Zhou Xue popped her head into the office. Although they had been together for a few months, he was still a little reserved when he saw Xia Qiu. Seeing this cautious look, Xia Qiu couldn't help but smile and say," Why are you still so timid? Am I really going to eat you?" Then, he asked,"How are the people outside? Did many people leave?"
Zhou Xue said softly,"Many people have left. There were originally some who wanted to stay, but when they saw most of the people leave, many people followed suit." Xia Qiu knew that this was a herd mentality. Once there were more people doing something, it would attract more and more people to do it.
At this moment, Zhou Xue asked,"Boss, if we really don't want to make books anymore, what should we do in the future?"
Xia Qiu sighed and said," I didn't want it to be like this, but I had no choice. I wanted to sell my books quietly, but the robbers kept coming. I had no choice but to find someone outside to share the risk. As for the future, I haven't decided yet. Oh right, I'm warning you. You're not allowed to leave. If you leave, I'll deduct your salary. Alright, go register outside and pay them in the afternoon."
Looking at the empty office, Xia Qiu could only laugh bitterly. Some people had planned to stay, but when they saw that Chen Liang had decided to leave, they followed suit. Xia Qiu was a little disappointed with Chen Liang's departure.'It's good that he left. He doesn't have to rely on me anymore.' Now, only Xia Qiu and Zhou Xue were left in the company.
Xia Qiu shouted at Zhou Xue," Xiaoxue, look after the company. If anyone calls, just tell them that the company is open indefinitely. If there's anything, ask them to leave their number. Alright, I'll go back first." After saying that, Xia Qiu hummed a tune and walked downstairs.
