Chapter 350 Selfishness and Double Standards

Author: Hometown Three Thousand Miles

Yan Xin is a person who is considered to be very talented in business but actually has no ability. What he can do is to put forward some suggestions based on the memory of his previous life. He does not know the specific operations and needs professionals to do it.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of professionals in this society.

He points out the way, and naturally people move in the direction he points out.

The direction is correct, and even if there are some small problems at work, they will not have much impact on the overall situation.

He plays the role of a helmsman, mainly pointing out the company's next development direction.

In this regard, he does have an advantage.

It is extremely difficult to predict policies and predict future economic development trends.

He doesn't need to predict, he just needs to take out the things he remembered in his previous life, because they really happened and are more accurate than economists and strategists.

There will be no problems in the general direction, and the people under my command can move forward with confidence.

——The company has been established for such a long time, and he has also established a high-end image with strategic vision in the minds of employees. His employees believe in his predictions and are willing to move forward under his guidance.

Yan Xin is quite satisfied with the company's development.

What satisfies him the most is that he basically doesn’t have to do any specific things. It can’t be said that he doesn’t care at all. But if he is away from the company for ten days and a half, there will be no problems in the company’s operation and its development is still very healthy.

Ellie also made a certain contribution here.

Ai Lili does not have outstanding business talents, but she has studied related majors abroad for several years. Although she is not talented enough, she is still very serious in learning. She understands some basic things - she is better than Yan Xin in this aspect.

many.

It is quite suitable for her to be the general manager. Although she is not pioneering, her execution ability is good. It is not easy for her subordinates to hide what they are doing from her.

If Yan Xin is sitting in this position, it is just a decoration that can scare the timid ones, but if the more courageous ones do anything under his hands, he will not be able to tell at all.

Ellie is not qualified to be a leader, but she is a competent housekeeper.

In terms of development, Yan Xin is enough.

The company is still recruiting people and has plans to recruit people in the future.

The greater the profits, the higher the conditions they offer, and the higher the quality of employees they can recruit.

This time Yan Xin came to the company and saw several new faces, both male and female.

The older ones are in their thirties and have been working in the industry for more than ten years. They are able to stand on their own as soon as they come here. They were hired with a lot of money.

The young ones are college students who just graduated last year. They are from prestigious schools. Although they have no impressive achievements in the industry, they have certain potential and can be cultivated well.

If there's one thing I'm not happy about, it's probably that there aren't any pretty girls among the employees I've recruited.

——Yan Xin doesn’t have any bad intentions. He simply thinks that the company can have a few more beautiful female employees to improve the productivity of male employees.

He wandered around for an afternoon, got to know a few new employees, learned about the current operations of each department and the general data, and was generally very satisfied.

He also said some words of encouragement, saying that the company is running very well now and will be even better in the future.

He drew a big pie and said that he had found a partner in the capital market and that a large amount of capital would be injected over time, allowing the company to enter a fast lane of development.

This is not a complete lie - at least he did talk to Cai Qixiang of Fengxiang Real Estate. To exaggerate Cai Qixiang's brilliance is equivalent to the capital market.

In fact, Cai Qixiang does not have much cash flow to use. Even if he cooperates, there is a high probability that no funds will be injected into Starlight Entertainment.

This is not something Cai Qixiang is willing to do, but Yan Xin does not want other capital to inject.

He himself still has money in the stock market. When this bull market passes, those stocks will be sold, and then more funds can be injected for development.

No matter what is said is true or not, as long as more money is available for investment and development.

The big pie he drew made the company's employees more excited and made them feel that they have a bright future in this company. Even if the current salary is not that high, it is worth continuing.

What's more, the salary package offered by Starlight Entertainment is also pretty good. It's not the highest in the industry, but it's still above average.

After getting off work at six o'clock, Yan Xin said to Ai Lili on the way back: "Now the company is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more things happening. Can you still take care of it by yourself?"

"It's not bad," Ellie said, "I'm not in charge of everything. Specific people have to do specific things. It's just some more important ones. I will follow up on them. It's not very busy."

"But, there will be more things to come in the future." Yan Xin said.

Ai Lili glanced at him, was silent for a while, and then said with a smile: "Do you think I am not capable enough and you want to find a more powerful person to manage the company? If there is a more suitable person, I can retire.

of."

He spoke very openly, but there was some resentment in his tone.

She knew that Yan Xin would support her even if she didn't work and would not let her quality of life deteriorate, but she didn't want to be a housewife.

I studied hard and studied abroad for several years in order to be able to support myself by my own abilities instead of being a man's pet.

Her mother chose to be a man's pet to obtain a superior life, but she has despised this lifestyle since she was a child. She hopes to have her own career.

She works at Starlight Entertainment Company, and with her relationship with Yan Xin, she can secure her position without working too hard, but she is still working hard just to prove her ability and that she is qualified for this job.

Now Yan Xin's words seemed to mean that she was not qualified for such a job, which made her very unhappy and even had some random thoughts:

"Why did he suddenly say such things to me when he came back from outside? Did he find a replacement for me in the past ten days?"

In the past ten days, Yan Xin has indeed found someone who can replace her in some aspects.

It's just that the "replacement" she thinks about is to replace her job in the company, not to replace her job in bed.

Yan Xin was stunned for a moment and then laughed: "What are you thinking? Only you can be the leader of Starlight Entertainment. Can I rest assured if someone else takes your position?"

Ai Lili was relieved and confused: "Then what do you mean by suddenly asking this?"

"I mean, do you need to recruit a secretary to help you share the work pressure?" Yan Xin said, "Now that you are qualified, the company will only get bigger and bigger, and there will be more and more things.

There are so many things going on at the moment, and you’re the only one, so I’m afraid you won’t be able to take care of it.”

Only then did Aili realize that she had misunderstood, and she felt a little sorry.

Yan Xin's words of trust in her moved her, and even made her blame herself, feeling that she was sorry for this trust.

Said: "I haven't thought about this matter because I think I can handle it now, but you are right to think about it. The company will continue to develop, and personnel will be more complicated. Without a secretary, it is really difficult for one person to take care of it.

"

Yan Xin said: "It takes a certain amount of time to train a qualified secretary. It doesn't mean you can just recruit one, so I think you should consider this now."

Ellie nodded: "Well, I will consider it."

After a while, Yan Xin couldn't help but said: "In terms of recruiting secretaries, what kind of person can be qualified? You have more experience in the workplace and know better than me. You can only be responsible for this matter. But I have a

suggestion……"

Having said that, I stopped talking again.

Ellie asked curiously: "What suggestions?"

"Um..." Yan Xin hesitated for a while and then said, "Don't recruit men."

"Why?" Ally asked.

Yan Xin was very embarrassed: "I think... the secretary and the boss have to be very close. You are a woman and a very beautiful woman. If your secretary is a man, they will work together for too long...

…”

Ai Lili was a little unhappy: "Are you afraid that I will do something sorry for you?"

"Uh, no..." Of course Yan Xin would not admit it and said, "I'm afraid that he has some evil thoughts about you. If he doesn't get what he wants, he may do some extreme things to you and the company. He will hate you out of love.

It's terrible for people to go crazy, and we can't allow this to happen."

Then he added in a timely manner: "The main reason is that you are so beautiful. I think a normal man, even if he has a family and a house, cannot refuse your charm."

This really made Ellie like to hear it, and she couldn't help but smile on her face.

Blushing, she said, "I'm not that beautiful. Don't talk nonsense."

He paused for a moment, and then said: "However, you don't have to recruit men for the secretary job. Girls are more attentive. It should be better to recruit a girl. Don't worry, I will listen to you on this matter.

We won’t hire male secretaries.”

Yan Xin felt relieved and said: "Yes, the main reason is that girls are more attentive and more qualified to work as secretaries."

He suggested that Ellie hire a secretary because he owed her something and hoped that more people could share the pressure of her work. At least she would not be so tired when she went to work, which could be considered a kind of compensation.

But he really didn't want Ai Lili to be with a male secretary, as this would make him very uncomfortable and insecure.

People are so selfish - they can be in two different places, but they cannot accept their significant other doing similar things, and they cannot allow even the slightest hint of ambiguity to appear.

In this regard, Yan Xin admits that he has double standards for selfishness, but he does not intend to change it.

The two of them had reached an agreement on recruiting a secretary. They agreed to recruit a secretary within one or two months, preferably a fresh graduate from 985, and train him slowly.

However, Ai Lili also made a decision in her heart: "We need to recruit a capable girl, but she can't be too pretty, or even pretty, as long as she's not ugly."

It's not a good thing that the secretary is too pretty.

——She and Feng Xi have never met, but they have a tacit understanding in this regard.

The online store opened by Feng Xi recruits all female employees, but none of them are beautiful. She carefully selects every woman who poses no threat to herself.

On the way home, they passed by a vegetable market. They bought some vegetables and went home to cook.

Yan Xin also called Chen Li and asked him and Liang Wei to come over for dinner in the evening and catch up on old times.

Gu Ru is making money crazily outside, trying to earn enough money for her retirement before quitting the music scene. She is not in Yangcheng.

She is not here, and naturally her manager Xiao Yin is not here either.

However, Madoka, who was once a non-mainstream person, lives in Yangcheng.

So Yan Xin also called her and asked her to come over for dinner in the evening.

We both live in the same community, work in the same company, and are considered friends. It is normal for him to have a meal together after he has been away for such a long time.

Not half an hour after returning home, while the two of them were still preparing ingredients in the kitchen, Madoka came over.

After a few minutes, Chen Li and Liang Wei also came over.

Yan Xin found that although Chen Li and Liang Wei both had smiles on their faces, their smiles were a little perfunctory. They seemed quite friendly to them after they came over, but they seemed a little distant from each other.

This made him feel a little strange - was there something wrong with them?

After Liang Wei came over, she went into the kitchen to help Ai Lili cook, and then Yan Xin was kicked out and asked to accompany Chen Li.

The two elders were not in the living room, but went to the balcony.

Yan Xin asked about the various data of Chen Li's new book.

Driven by the old book, Chen Li's new book has good data in all aspects. It is at the top of several lists. The data is so fierce that it is aiming to break records and is constantly breaking records.

The previous book did not have such a foundation, so it did not achieve such good results.

Starting from the 1st, it ranked first in the monthly voting list, and until now, it has been significantly ahead of the second place.

Unless there are any special circumstances, he will be the monthly ticket champion this month.

Not to mention sales, the entire site has no rivals.

The average subscription is the highest, and the key is that it also has the largest number of updates.

According to Chen Li's estimate, the new book's royalties this month will be in the hundreds of thousands.

Moreover, although the old book "Fights Break the Sphere" has been completed, it can still bring him good profits.

It has been more than a month since I finished the book, but this book is still ranked in the top five on the website's sales list, and it can also bring in a lot of royalties this month.

Next month is another semi-annual royalty settlement. Over the past six months, the sales of both simplified and traditional Chinese versions of "Fights Beyond the Sphere" have been very impressive, and the income is quite astonishing.

The physical book copyrights of traditional and simplified Chinese were sold before the new book was put on the shelves. The traditional Chinese version has been released this month, and the sales are also good. The simplified version will not be released for about two or three months.

Calculating this, Chen Li was a little excited and said to Yan Xin: "I think I can buy a villa by next month."

"Down payment or full payment?" Yan Xin asked.

Nowadays, if you invest in real estate, you will basically not lose money. Even if you lose a little in a short period of time, you can make it back very quickly, and you can double the money back.

So he will not object to Chen Li's decision.

"If you want to buy a villa, of course you can only make a down payment, otherwise you can only buy a villa in the suburbs with that little money." Chen Li felt a little depressed, "I just don't know if I, an online author, am qualified to get a mortgage."

Yan Xin didn't understand this either, and said: "Then you don't have to focus on the villa, you can just buy a few houses. If you need money urgently in the future, villas are not so easy to sell, and ordinary commercial houses are easier. If you don't sell them, just take them.

It’s more convenient to rent it out.”

"Let's ask then." Chen Lida said.

He added: "I want to buy a villa, not for investment, but because I want to live by myself. I feel it is more dignified."

The word "decent" is what he pursues. Perhaps it is because his previous life was too dishonorable and he was looked down upon by many people, so he cares about this very much.

Chen Li listened to Yan Xin's words and invested in some real estate. In addition to the house he lives in now, he also bought two houses in Baijingyuan. One is a new house and has been decorated. He will rent it out after a while.

.

One is a second-hand house. I bought it last year. It doesn’t need to be renovated. It can be moved in directly. It was rented out last year.

He bought both houses in full, and the area is not very large, more than 80 square meters.

Since he bought it, the house price has increased by hundreds of thousands, which has also made him more interested in investing in real estate.

He talked to Yan Xin about his ideal, which was to buy a dozen apartments, stop writing novels, and make a living by collecting rent.

When you are short of money, you can just pick a set and sell it, and you can live happily for a few years.

He doesn't understand other investments and doesn't dare to try them.

He still has a lot of deposits in his bank account, but some of them are fixed term and some are used to ensure his quality of life. Although he can deposit more to buy a house, he has never thought about using this money.

If you want to invest again, you can only wait until the royalties are settled next month before investing again.

Economically, he is relatively conservative.

Yan Xin quite approves of this attitude.

Although you have lost the possibility of becoming rich and wealthy, your future life can be guaranteed.

After chatting for a while with Chen Li about real estate investment, Yan Xin turned the topic to Liang Wei: "You and Liang Wei are getting along well now, right?"

After asking this question, Chen Li first looked over at the kitchen.

The kitchen was not visible from the balcony. He just glanced in that direction, then sighed and whispered:

"Not very good."

"What's going on?" Yan Xin was curious.

"I don't know what's going on," Chen Li was very depressed. "I used to have occasional quarrels, but they got better soon. She has a good personality and is easy to coax. But now... I don't know if it's her."

After writing a book and becoming famous, he got rich, and his spirit became high. He always kept a straight face and got angry with me at every turn."

"Can you bear this?" Yan Xin couldn't help but laugh.

In his impression, Chen Li was not a man who would accommodate women.

Chen Lidao: "There were times when I wanted to fall out with her and tell her to break up with her if she behaved like this, but when I got angry, she would just sit there and shed tears, looking very aggrieved...Mom

The egg...is too strong to come out."

After finishing speaking, he was silent for a while and then said:

"I don't know if it's because her aunt has been absent during this period, which has affected her psychology."
