Chapter 202: You Still Have Me
Manager Bai\'s eyes opened wide in shock. Was he getting a promotion?
Rong Yue\'s lips also curled upwards from his expression. "Did you think you would keep managing that same place?"
"You have three weeks to do a proper handover. After that, you will move to the headquarters and be the executive manager,"
His skills were enough to handle it, and more importantly, Rong Yue liked that he was someone who listened to instructions.
He was easy to work with, so she had no reason to be searching around for someone else.
Besides, she had no plans of having a board of directors that would help with anything. She was building these things so that she could stand against the organisation. Having the shares divided would only make things more messy.
"Once we don\'t let people invest, we would have a lot of competition that would come up," Manager Bai voiced out and then ticked another thing from his list.
Manager Bai was good at handling things, but his marketing skills and knowledge weren\'t as good. A certain name crossed Rong Yue\'s mind as she thought of that.
Gu Yan.
"I\'ll get a marketing expert to join the team."
Also, for now, don\'t send the rejection emails out. Instead, send the best ten emails informing them that the team is considering their company."
If they did that, the investors would keep calm until the launch. Since they didn\'t even know about the game she wanted to launch, they would only keep looking at the Arcade centres.
As long as Infinity could launch without any competition in the same timeframe, she knew that they would have no problem.
If any other company came up after their launch, she knew it was impossible for them to compete with Infinity.
Even if they pouched her workers, duplicating the game would take them at least two years because she did the major world-building and only left the polishing to Feng Buyan and his team.
Manager Bai made sure to bring up all the questions he had and then wrote down every instruction from Rong Yue.
After spending about two hours together, the housekeeper brought a glass of milk for Rong Yue and asked Manager Bai if he wanted anything.
Just being in President Qin\'s house made him tense already. How could he dare to want anything?
"Just water is fine," he said with a small bow. His thoughts were clear to see. Even the housekeeper here deserved respect of the highest level!
"The team of developers will start onsite work by tomorrow. It would be best if you also go there with a design team to modify your office.
Also, please send a list of the roles that we need. I\'ll let you know the ones I\'ll get myself."
As soon as Rong Yue finished speaking, Manager Bai pulled out a sheet of paper from the folder with him.
"I have a scanned copy that I can email to you. This is the list,"
Rong Yue took it and glanced through it. In less than five minutes, she marked out the roles that she wanted to handle by herself.
It was a game company. It was better to hire people that were very computer smart.
Also, there used to be a lot of job openings on the dark web. People that knew how to use their skills would often keep an eye out for things like that.
They talked about other matters, and Manager Bai left after spending three hours with Rong Yue.
As soon as he left, Qin Yichen walked into the garden and sat opposite her.
"You should tell him to reject all the investors from the beginning," Qin Yichen started.
Rong Yue\'s hands that were typing on her phone paused as she looked up at him.
"Once you have stirred up interest in the business industry, you are halfway done with your launching."
"If you reject them all now, some other companies will try to create such a subsidiary. When that happens, their marketing makes more of the ordinary people know about Arcade centres."
Qin Yichen explained the \'kicking up a fuss\' logic until Rong Yue understood.
"You should hire a marketing expert and ask him to submit a strategy using this,"
The main Infinity game didn\'t need too much publicity. It was the kind of thing that a person needed his group of friends to play. After downloading, most of them would invite their friends naturally.
More importantly, the game was addicting!
There was a marketing expert that she had once worked with in the past. As one of the top models, she had met with so many brands and their teams.
Gu Yan was one of the best that she had met back then.
And anytime they wanted to do a new launch, he would invite her for a meeting to tell her the theme he had in mind before allowing her to go for the shoot.
But she wasn\'t sure of what role he would have now and how much experience he had.
Perhaps there was someone better?
Qin Yichen noticed that she seemed lost in her thoughts and didn\'t say anything else.
Like that, the both of them sat down for another fifteen minutes before the ringing of her phone pulled her out of her thoughts.
Rong Yue looked at Xu Ning\'s familiar number for a few seconds before she picked.
"Sister Xu,"
"Yue\'er, how are you?" As she was afraid of anyone listening in on her call, Xu Ning didn\'t dare to use her first name.
"I\'m okay, how are you too? Is anything the matter?" As soon as the call started, the screen on Rong Yue\'s laptop changed as she used her other hand to type speedily.
She wanted to give the call another layer of protection. This way, even if someone tried to trace the call later on, they wouldn\'t be able to hear them.
"There\'s no problem at all, but there\'s a new staff in my workplace, he\'s a little suspicious, and when he thinks my guards are down, he tries to ask some questions that should be personal,"
Xu Ning went on to explain some scenarios to Rong Yue.
Previously, Qin Yichen had sent her to work as an executive in one of their subsidiary companies. She didn\'t have to interact with many people, and the pay was good enough to care for her and her uncle\'s kids.
For someone to be close enough to irritate her, it had to be someone of a considerably high position.
Another suspicious point was the person being new to the company too.
"When did he start work?" Rong Yue asked.
"About three weeks ago, he was very reserved at first, but he is getting more daring every day."
"Okay, I\'ll check him out and give you feedback tomorrow,"
"Yue, thank you so much."
Xu Ning told her about some other matters and gave her a brief rundown on how the little ones were coping. Just like that, the both of them talked for twenty minutes.
Rong Yue was very patient with Xu Ning. In her previous life, Xu Ning had also lived a miserable life.
She had no personal family and was all by herself. She worked very hard to protect her uncle\'s kids and used her talent to manage something she loathed.
By managing the organisation, her own will and person were breaking from within. In very few cases, she would fight for some kids or try to mediate when things got too tough.
With all of these memories, she couldn\'t help but be a little gentle when dealing with her.
When she ended the call, Rong Yue rubbed the space between her brows and leaned back in the chair.
"This subsidiary is a little lax in handling matters; they didn\'t even know that their system was infiltrated!"
Before the call ended, she started searching for the \'new\' staff.
Now, his information page was in front of her, and she could see that he was lacking in skills. Who could have done the interview and given this kind of person a job??
Qin Yichen shot an arched brows in her direction, and Rong Yue turned her laptop to face him.
After looking at it for about a minute, his lips curled up.
"This was done so that the staff would bear the responsibility if he were discovered. The staff is a decoy,"
He was able to figure out the scheme behind it immediately and also wondered who the people targeting Xu Ning were.
Even now, they didn\'t want to let her go.
His black eyes grew deeper as he looked at Rong Yue with a little bit of worry.
"Be careful."
"If it\'s too much for you, you still have me."
