Chapter 559

Subsequently,

at the signal from Qin Feng and Andy,

the three founders of Miaoqu Video convened a meeting with all the company's senior executives.

At the meeting,

Andy and Qin Feng announced the good news,

then encouraged and motivated everyone. After signaling Zhao Lei and another executive to stay behind, they declared the meeting adjourned.

Then,

Zhao Lei, with gauze still wrapped around his head, looked at Qin Feng and Andy with some unease, though his gaze toward Andy always carried a certain lewdness...

"Zhao Lei, is it?"

Looking at Zhao Lei with his head wrapped in gauze,

Qin Feng smiled slightly, sat beside Zhao Lei, and then asked somewhat strangely, "Mr. Zhao, your head?"

"This..."

Zhao Lei hesitated for a moment, then said, "Bad luck. Something was thrown from upstairs and hit me while I was jogging at night, but it's nothing serious."

"That's good."

Qin Feng smiled meaningfully: "You must not let your brain get damaged. If your brain gets damaged, we would lose a key general like Mr. Zhao..."

"Mr. Qin..."

Zhao Lei knew there was more to Qin Feng's words, so he felt somewhat awkward and didn't know what to say.

But Qin Feng continued smiling: "Here's the situation, Mr. Zhao. Your judgment of the short-video market is extremely precise. All three of us general managers hold you in high regard and have strongly recommended you to us."

"So, I kept you here alone to discuss a long-term contract. Starting now, a minimum of five years, a base monthly salary of 30,000, with bonuses and performance pay calculated separately. In total, the initial annual salary starts at 600,000."

"Only 600,000?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lei's face went pale: "Mr. Qin, I'm not trying to inflate my own value, but let me put it this way: if I leave Miaoqu today, other companies would immediately offer me an annual salary of at least 800,000 to hire me. Do you believe that?"

"Don't rush, Mr. Zhao. I haven't finished yet."

Qin Feng smiled slightly: "This year is only the first year of your long-term contract, so the starting annual salary is 600,000."

"However, if Mr. Zhao completes the requirements stipulated in the agreement this year, next year's annual salary will increase by 15%, which means 700,000."

"If Mr. Zhao continues to successfully complete his tasks next year, the following year's annual salary will increase by 15% of 700,000, which calculates to over 800,000."

"This is only the third year. Mr. Zhao, calculate it yourself. If this accumulates until the fifth year, how high will your annual salary reach?"

"This..."

After hearing Qin Feng's plan, Zhao Lei was actually overjoyed inside, but he still pretended to be reluctant and disdainful as he said, "Mr. Qin, even so, it's only a little over a million. It's actually not that much..."

"Yes, that's why I said the long-term contract starts at five years. If Mr. Zhao has confidence in Miaoqu and in himself, he could actually sign for ten years. If it's a ten-year contract, by the end, Mr. Zhao's annual salary could reach the ten-million level! Even Mingzhu doesn't earn as much as you would!"

"Ten years?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lei's eyes lit up. According to this accumulation, the annual salary over ten years would truly exceed ten million. He, Zhao Lei, would truly become the Emperor of Employees!

Excitement surged,

and Zhao Lei no longer hesitated. Looking directly at Qin Feng, he said, "Alright, Mr. Qin, I'll sign for ten years."

QQ Group: 25559530

"No rush."

But at this moment, Qin Feng shook his head: "Mr. Zhao, I still need to explain the contents of the agreement. The first clause is: if you sign the agreement with the company and then unilaterally breach it without cause, you must compensate the company with half of the total annual salary."

"For example, if you sign the agreement now and suddenly decide you don't want to work tomorrow, then if you leave tomorrow, you must compensate the company 300,000."

"Hmm, alright."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lei nodded indifferently.

Zhao Lei had been in the business world for a few years and knew these were tactics used by major companies to retain employees, so he didn't care.

Seeing Zhao Lei's indifferent expression,

Qin Feng smiled slightly and then said: "Mr. Zhao, there is another clause. After signing the agreement with the company, you must obey all arrangements made by the company. You must not be absent without reason, late, or go on strike. Otherwise, the previous clause will be applied. Do you have any objections to this point?"

"No."

After hearing this, Zhao Lei immediately shook his head as well.

These regulations were indeed tactics used by major companies to retain employees, and he had seen far too many of them.

"Very well, Mr. Zhao. These are the contents of our contract. Please review them carefully. Once confirmed, we can sign."

After finishing with a smile, Qin Feng handed the senior executive employment contract to Zhao Lei.

Although Zhao Lei had seemed indifferent just now, he still carefully flipped through the employment contract. After confirming there were no issues, he nodded: "Sign it, Mr. Qin."

"Good, Mr. Zhao is straightforward."

Qin Feng smiled calmly, took the fountain pen handed to him by Andy, and signed the contract with Zhao Lei.

Meanwhile, Luo Bin, as the lawyer, witnessed and read aloud the legal effect of this moment.

After both parties exchanged the contracts,

Qin Feng smiled and looked at Zhao Lei, asking: "Mr. Zhao, have you ever acted in a drama before?"

"Acting?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lei shook his head in some surprise, then smiled: "Mr. Qin, I haven't really thought about acting, but if there's an opportunity, I would quite like to try it."

"That's perfect."

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng smiled very happily: "It should be very soon that I can let Mr. Zhao make a guest appearance and satisfy your acting itch."

"Then, thank you, Mr. Qin, for your promotion."

"Mr. Zhao is too polite."

Qin Feng smiled, stood up, and left Miaoqu Video with Andy, Luo Bin, and others, heading toward the next short-video platform.

And at this moment, Zhao Lei,

proudly called those few guys from yesterday: "Hello? Li Lian, let me tell you, something strange happened at our company today, hahaha. Two suckers not only spent eighty million to buy our company, but also signed a ten-year long-term contract with me..."

"Zhao Lei, wait a moment."

At the Wisdom Video Platform,

Li Lian, serving as the Operations Director,

saw Qin Feng and Andy sitting in the General Manager's office, chatting happily,

then asked in a low voice: "Zhao Lei, are those two a very handsome man and a very beautiful woman?"

"Yes, yes, yes. The woman is especially beautiful, especially elegant, just a bit scary..."

"Zhao Lei, they are right here at our company now, and it seems they are also discussing acquiring our company!"

"That's perfect. Li Lian, listen to me. As long as they approach you, just sign a ten-year long-term contract with them. Really, it's awesome! I absolutely won't lie to you!"

"Is that so? A ten-year long-term contract... Doesn't that mean we are completely in their hands, at their mercy?"
