Why is This Troublemaker So Damn Rich?
Chapter 75: Don’t Get Any Ideas About HerA promotional budget of 260,000 might not sound like much at first.
But this was for running events. It was money provided by the mall to support promotional activities.
A promotional budget of 260,000 could typically generate nearly 2.6 million in sales. The benefits of that were self-evident.
He had checked the level of support Xinyue Square had given Futong Commerce in the past. They might not have even gotten this much over an entire year.
This was mainly because Xinyue Square already had a huge amount of natural customer traffic, so it rarely held promotional events. It wasn’t like a traditional department store such as Yida Department Store, which now lacked foot traffic and had to rely on promotions to drive sales.
Yang Hui had proven his worth just a few days after arriving, earning the company over a million in extra profit each month. What boss would dare touch someone like that?
That’s why, in a fit of rage yesterday, President Li had said he was going to get rid of him. But after returning to his office and running the numbers, what was a bit of anger compared to over a million in monthly profit?
"Once this budget is approved, coordinate the event plan with the mall immediately. Seize the sales opportunity this weekend."
Dan Biao immediately replied, "Yes, exactly. That’s why this morning Yang Hui said we absolutely had to get the officially stamped letter to the mall today. At the very least, we need to send them a stamped digital copy so they can start the OA process internally."
Li Yang smiled. "That’s simple. The official seal is with the finance department. Just go get it stamped."
Dan Biao didn’t expect any issues. In a private company, as long as the boss agreed, all procedures could be simplified.
’How could the boss not agree to something that was basically free money?’
Back at his desk, Yang Hui looked over the past two days of reports, then chatted with Yang Na for a bit about signing the "NLB" contract.
The cooperation agreement with the brand company had already been stamped and sent out. Yang Hui then sent the digital file of the cooperation agreement with Xinyue Square to Yang Na, asking her to get it stamped and mail it to the Xinyue Group regional headquarters.
Seeing the contract terms, Yang Na was stunned for a long time.
’Is this a contract a human could even sign?’
Ruijing Commerce, her company, also had a partnership with Xinyue Square’s first store. The rate of 400 yuan per square meter per month was already ridiculously low, and their store was on the second floor. This one was on the first floor, and in a prime location at that.
The commercial terms were a straight 6% commission. How was opening a store like this any different from picking up free money?
"Yang Na! Yang Na!"
She looked up. It was her colleague, Li Qing, calling her.
"Fang Zheng wants to see you. He needs to talk to you about something."
"What is it?"
"He didn’t say. He’s been completely overwhelmed these past two days. It’s probably about Xinyue Square halting all operational support for us."
Fang Zheng had been officially announced as the acting regional general manager. His position wasn’t permanent yet; he could be dismissed at any time.
That was why, during his first meeting with the regional general managers chaired by the group’s COO, he had brought up two points: first, that all store contracts this year would be renewed under the same terms, and second, the operational support from Xinyue Square for Ruijing Commerce.
Now, the branch office knew there was a problem with renewing the contracts on the same terms. But since it wasn’t time for renewal yet, the headquarters was still in the dark. Fang Zheng was still trying to turn the situation around, but no one knew how the negotiations were currently going.
However, as for the operational support, headquarters was about to find out immediately now that Xinyue Square had canceled it.
Because the marketing proposal submissions were different from before, headquarters would discover it right away.
After Fang Zheng had shown off at the national regional managers’ meeting, the COO had even told all the other GMs to learn from him. Now, just a few days later, this was the result. Not only was it a slap in his own face, but it also dragged the COO into the joke with him.
"I’m not going. You go tell him that Xinyue Square has already notified us that all support is canceled. He should hurry up and go negotiate. If he calls me over, I’ll just tell him the same thing."
Li Qing smiled. Everyone knew Yang Na had never liked Fang Zheng. She was just about to go back and relay the message.
Yang Na added from behind her, "Tell him to hurry up and pick an operations manager from among you guys. I’m formally resigning at the end of this month. I still have some unused annual leave, so I probably won’t be coming into the office after the middle of the month."
Li Qing turned back and whispered, "If he messes up this contract renewal, will he even be able to keep his job as regional general manager?"
Yang Na tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "That’s not my concern."
All her thoughts were now on Yanghe Commerce. She had no energy to care about what would happen to Ruijing Commerce in the future. That had nothing to do with her anymore.
「 」
After dealing with the tasks at hand, Yang Hui stretched.
He started mulling over the system mission. Leaving aside the highly profitable spending rebate, the punishment alone was enough to make completing this mission a must.
’Otherwise, if I end up with a bald spot, wouldn’t that be a disservice to this handsome face?’
’Shen Meng, I have to win her over!’
Since he was targeting Shen Meng, he had to go find her. Otherwise, just sitting here daydreaming would get him nowhere, even if he dreamed for three months.
’I’ll go to the livestreaming studio first and check things out.’ Yang Hui was a little troubled.
Girls were always the ones to hit on him. He’d never actively hit on a girl before.
The livestreaming studio was in a corner of the office area, placed there mainly for the quiet.
The company’s livestreaming team had two hosts in total. They each broadcasted for four hours a day, taking turns.
Shen Meng was a new employee who had been with the company for less than two weeks, but her ability to sell products was the strongest among the hosts. It was probably because she was gorgeous and had a great figure—a natural-born clothes horse. No matter what she wore, it made customers want to buy it.
"Manager Yang!"
"Manager Yang, heading to the livestreaming team?"
People greeted him along the way. He smiled and responded, "Yes, I’m going to see if we can empower our operations team through livestreaming."
Wang Xiao happened to be passing by. She pulled him aside and whispered, "Don’t get any ideas about Shen Meng. Listen to me, Sister Wang won’t steer you wrong."
Yang Hui had a good impression of Wang Xiao. Hearing this, he smiled. "I’m just going to talk about work. But I am curious, what would happen if I did get ideas about her?"
Wang Xiao glanced around. "Don’t ask so many questions. Just trust me."
Seeing that Yang Hui seemed unconcerned, she got a little anxious and added in a low voice, "President Li will be unhappy. Do you understand?"
Yang Hui grinned happily. When Xia Jie had told him, he was still a bit skeptical. But now that Wang Xiao was saying the same thing, he figured it must be true: Li Yang was after Shen Meng.
’What a lecherous old man, always scheming.’
’In that case, not only do I have to flirt with Shen Meng, I have to do it openly. Otherwise, how will I get Li Yang’s attention?’
Watching Yang Hui’s retreating back, Wang Xiao sighed. "Ah, young people. They just don’t understand that lust is a dangerous trap."
’I’ve given him the warning he needed. What happens next is up to his own fate.’
The door to the livestreaming studio was closed. Worried that a broadcast was in session and knocking might interrupt them, he gave it a light push. The door didn’t budge; it must have been locked from the inside.
