Chapter 111: The Livestreaming Team
Sunday, May 7, 2023. Sunny, 13~24°C.
Tang Song got up early.
40 minutes of aerobic training, posture correction, eating, washing up, and skincare.
Afterward, he changed into a well-fitted casual suit.
He fixed his phone on a stand, set an automatic photo countdown, and stood in an empty corner.
Chest out, head up, body relaxed, eyes looking straight ahead.
"Click—"
A raw photo without any filters appeared in his album.
A suit is a man's weapon.
Wearing the dark suit, he looked tall and straight, with an outstanding temperament.
Paired with his handsome features, a clear jawline, fluffy hair, and increasingly better skin, he was absolutely a standard, top-tier handsome guy.
Compared to the photos from before his transformation, it could be called a world-shaking change.
He sat at his desk, imported the footage into his computer, and began creating the "Before and After" transformation video.
The room grew brighter, and crisp birdsong echoed from outside the window from time to time.
By the time he finished the video and uploaded it to Xiaohongshu, it was already past 10:00 AM.
Tang Song stretched and stood up to move his body.
He picked up his phone to check it; two unread messages caught his eye, received over twenty minutes ago.
【Wen Ruan: Cycling. jpg】
【Wen Ruan: "I suddenly have a bold idea."】
Tang Song tapped on the photo to look; it was a picture of her holding a road bike with one hand, standing on a road dappled with light and shadow, her plump peach-like buttocks leaning against the bike.
Black tight cycling shorts, white compression socks, a loose gray sun-protection jacket, wearing a helmet, protective gear, and Bluetooth earphones.
Her whole body was filled with a healthy, charming aura.
Looking at her second message, Tang Song also had a bold idea. He licked his lips and quickly replied: "How bold? What kind of idea?"
A moment later.
【Wen Ruan: "You replied too slowly, I forgot."】
Tang Song grinned, feeling like he had been teased by the big sister again.
He could only helplessly reply: "I was busy with work just now, my phone was charging. Big sister, think carefully and see if you can remember."
"Ding-dong—"
【Wen Ruan: "Can't remember anymore. However, I have another even bolder idea."】
Tang Song's spirit soared: "Tell me in detail!"
【Wen Ruan: "You replied too quickly, I haven't thought it through yet."】
Tang Song: 【Expression gradually solidifying. jpg】
11:00 AM.
After finishing brunch, Zhao Yaqian carried her LV bag, stood in front of the mirror, twisting and turning in self-intoxication, her eyes sparkling.
He Liting couldn't help but speak up: "Please, can you not show off in front of me like this? You're going to make me green with envy! Hurry up and get to work!"
Zhao Yaqian said excitedly: "I'm leaving a bit late today, I'll just take a taxi later."
"Why are you suddenly being so extravagant? That's not your style."
Zhao Yaqian touched the bag in front of her and giggled: "Such an expensive bag, I'm afraid of wearing it out on the bus. From now on, I'll carry it to the company once a week and take a taxi to and from work."
"That's true." He Liting nodded in realization and said: "Then you can go with me later. My colleagues are having a get-together at noon today, and the restaurant isn't far from your beauty salon."
"Mm-hmm, okay, baby!" Zhao Yaqian was in a great mood and blew her a flying kiss.
He Liting curled her lips, stood up, and began to tidy herself up—doing her hair, putting on makeup, and changing clothes.
11:45 AM, the taxi stopped outside the Yisha Beauty Salon.
"Bye-bye, Tingzi!"
"Bye-bye."
Watching Zhao Yaqian leave, the taxi started up again and drove toward the restaurant.
Before getting off work yesterday, colleague Liu suddenly said he wanted to treat them to a meal, saying there was something important to discuss in person.
He Liting guessed it was likely still about the performance bonus.
After all, this wasn't a small amount of money; it was equivalent to 3 or 4 months of salary, and everyone had strong opinions about it.
As the big brother of the group, Liu Renjie was likely planning to take the lead in making a scene with the company.
Thinking of this, she felt a bit worried again.
Recently, she had been looking at job postings and had tried submitting quite a few resumes, but the response hadn't been good.
The position of livestreaming assistant was just miscellaneous work without much professionalism, and the corresponding competition was even more intense.
Plus, with her ordinary junior college degree, there was no chance of getting into a big company.
And the probability of falling into traps at those small companies was very high; they might not even be as good as Changyun Media.
In the current environment and at this point in time, finding a suitable job that is a bit easier and has good benefits is really too difficult.
While she was lost in intermittent thought, the car arrived outside the Runfeng Chinese Restaurant.
After getting out of the car, He Liting took a mirror out of her bag to tidy her hair and walked inside.
She followed the waiter to the second floor and pushed open the door to private room 210.
She immediately saw familiar colleagues.
Operations Liu Renjie, streamer Wang Qingya, floor manager Zhao Zhiming, customer service Hou Yan, and product selector Li Xiaoyu.
Plus herself as the assistant operations, it was just enough to make up a livestreaming team—quite a coincidence.
Streamer Wang Qingya waved at her and smiled: "Liting, you finally made it, we were just waiting for you! Sit here!"
He Liting greeted her colleagues and sat down quietly.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Liu Renjie immediately signaled the waiter to start serving the dishes.
Everyone raised their glasses to clink them, and tacitly began to talk about the bonus issue, all feeling very agitated.
Liu Renjie waved his hand and said loudly: "Zhao Baorong, that grandson, is really not a human being. He's helping the company cheat us out of our hard-earned money, and the promised bonus just vanished."
This sentence instantly resonated strongly with everyone.
For a moment, the private room was filled with cursing, and all sorts of colorful language spilled out.
As their direct supervisor, Zhao Baorong had been constantly urging them not to fuss over the bonus.
He even said something about how the company would definitely have a gesture at the end of the year, telling them to work steadily.
Bullshit!
Everyone had been working desperately overtime since after the New Year, wasn't it because of the bonus promised at the annual meeting?
He Liting couldn't help but grit her teeth and complain a few times as well.
That was a bonus of over ten thousand! It was enough for her to buy an LV bag.
Thinking of Qian Qian's exquisite and fashionable Carryall, she felt even worse.
The noisy discussion gradually subsided.
Liu Renjie said: "Anyway, I can't stand this anger. I already submitted my resignation yesterday, and the leadership has agreed. I'll officially handle the handover next Monday."
"Really?"
"Brother Liu, have you found a new place?"
"The leadership actually agreed to Brother Liu's resignation? It seems they really don't value us!"
Operations Liu Renjie was the core of the women's clothing project team.
He was responsible for the planning, organization, and execution of the entire livestreaming project, coordinating resources, and formulating livestreaming strategies.
Plus, having been at the company the longest, many times his words were more effective than the leadership's.
Liu Renjie took a sip of beer and smiled: "I have indeed found a new place. After finishing the handover here, I'll go to the new company to handle the onboarding. I'm already a bit impatient."
"Congratulations to Brother Liu for escaping the cage!"
"It's good to leave; Changyun Media is too disgusting."
"I envy Brother Liu for the seamless transition. I want to change jobs too."
"Brother Liu, how are the benefits at the new company?"
The company had frequent overtime, the leadership lacked integrity, and the salary and benefits were very average. If they could find something better, who wouldn't want to change?
Liu Renjie looked at everyone and smiled: "The company is very good. It has its own office space in Yunxi Building. The salary and benefits are much better than Changyun Media's, with full social insurance and housing fund. The work atmosphere and environment are both great. Although it's a startup, it also means greater opportunities for promotion. Moreover, the boss is very capable, and the company's business plan is also very promising."
After finishing, Liu Renjie shared photos of the company's office into the small group.
"Too awesome! This is simply the office I dream of going to!"
"Yunxi Building! The most high-end office building in Yancheng, so envious!"
Looking at the high-end office space and the fashionable and comfortable environment, He Liting couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Liu is really amazing, finding such a good job so quickly. If there's an opportunity in the future, you have to bring us along!"
Liu Renjie clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention, and said seriously: "The company is indeed very good, and the other side took the initiative to poach me.
They found a professional domestic headhunting team, senior headhunters from Deju Renhe, who personally did a full-dimensional career planning and assessment for me. To be honest, I was scared silly at the time.
I'm just a small operations person, and the other side actually made such a big move. I was really flattered.
It also shows the strength and sincerity of the new company, which is why I agreed on the spot and resigned so quickly.
Calling everyone here today is actually mainly to ask if you have any thoughts about jumping ship.
The company is a startup and is just in need of people. I know everyone's ability and character clearly.
If you trust me, just jump over with me. We'll still be a team, doing the category we are most familiar with."
The private room was quiet for a moment, and soon intense discussion broke out.
He Liting's eyes lit up, her heart thumping wildly, knowing that her good opportunity had arrived. ===== CHAPTER 112 =====
