Chapter 410

30th floor of Yunxi Building, Songmei Apparel.

Finance Office.

The sounds of keyboard tapping and mouse clicking rose and fell, and dense numbers were listed on the computer screen.

Sun Youguang organized the cost reports of each department in turn, summarizing all cost data incurred this month into a master table.

Each item of data was carefully checked to ensure accuracy.

Cost allocation, cost calculation, report preparation.

4:00 PM.

Various cost data were organized according to different classification standards, generating clear and easy-to-understand tables and charts.

After the Bei Yuwei incident in July, the IP "He Yiyi" was successfully incubated.

Throughout August, the whole company was of one mind and went all out.

For Songmei Apparel, this was an extremely critical month.

Looking at the numbers on the table, a big smile appeared on Sun Youguang's face.

He was genuinely happy for the company and for the boss.

As of August 30th, the company's monthly sales had exceeded 18 million, with a comprehensive return rate of 48%.

The main streamer "He Yiyi," due to her live-streaming style and product attributes, had a return rate of only 41%.

In the current women's clothing live-streaming circle where 70% is the norm, this was already considered very excellent.

After deducting procurement costs, platform commissions, operating costs, and other expenses, the pre-tax profit could reach 3 million.

This result was quite dazzling, and there was a key factor in it.

The Bei Yuwei incident continuously brought natural traffic to "He Yiyi," saving a large amount of traffic promotion marketing expenses.

Printing out the tables and charts, he carefully bound them.

Sun Youguang stood in the bright, spacious, and warm office area, his heart surging.

He was the first employee interviewed and hired by the company; seeing Songmei Apparel develop with his own eyes, while feeling honored, he was also full of expectations for the future.

Songmei Apparel's benefits were already very good; in addition to full social insurance and housing provident fund, there were also phone and meal subsidies.

His actual salary was now almost 7,400 yuan/month; after deducting social insurance, housing provident fund, and personal income tax, it still exceeded 6,000 yuan.

In the entire Yancheng financial employment market, this was already enough to reach the level of a financial supervisor position in some companies.

For example, in the company where his girlfriend Li Juan worked, the supervisor didn't have a salary as high as his.

Thinking of his girlfriend, Sun Youguang's mood became even more pleasant.

Once the August salary was issued, their savings would be nearly 170,000.

Previously, they had always thought about buying a house in their hometown county, but now their goal had changed to Yancheng.

Next week was the day of the intermediate accounting title exam; once he had the qualification certificate, his salary could continue to rise.

If they persisted until the end of the year, their savings would be enough for the down payment on a cheap house in Yancheng.

If things went smoothly, they could get married next year.

With the vigorous development of the company, everything was becoming better.

"Youguang." Supervisor Zhang Chunling called him, "Is the cost accounting finished?"

Quickly withdrawing his thoughts, Sun Youguang said hurriedly: "It's done, the document has been printed, and the electronic version has been emailed to Chairman Tang and Chairman Gao."

"OK, Chairman Gao needs it for a meeting in T3; take the document over, hard work."

"Okay, right away."

Sun Youguang responded and trotted out of the office.

Just as he reached the corner of the corridor, a figure suddenly popped out.

Sun Youguang hurriedly dodged to the side, "Sorry, sorry."

"It's okay."

Hearing the voice, Sun Youguang was stunned and hurriedly greeted: "Chairman Tang, good afternoon."

"Good afternoon." Tang Song looked at Sun Youguang with a smile, his tone gentle: "What are you going to do, in such a hurry?"

"I did the August cost accounting, printed it out, and Chairman Gao needs it for a meeting."

"Give it to me; this is what I asked Chairman Gao for. Hard work, Youguang." Tang Song took the document from his hand.

He had an excellent impression of this cost accountant; besides the fact that he was indeed a good person, there was also the loyalty of up to 99 points he had seen through the 【Enterprise Opportunity Card】 before.

With such a person in the finance department, he could also be more at ease.

"It's my duty, it's my duty. Then Chairman Tang, you go ahead and get busy; I'll go back to work."

Tang Song smiled and said: "By the way, Youguang, I remember you have a girlfriend, right?"

Sun Youguang was stunned, nodded somewhat embarrassedly: "Yes, she's my college classmate, and now we live together in Qiaoxi."

"Our company plans to organize a team-building event before the Mid-Autumn Festival, over at Wushan. Tell your girlfriend to save her annual leave in advance, and we'll go relax together then. Look at the mountains, look at the sea."

"Ah, thank you, Chairman Tang!" Sun Youguang hurriedly bowed, somewhat flattered.

When he first joined, there were only single-digit people in the office, and everyone worked in one office area at that time.

They also chatted about each other's living conditions then, and Sun Youguang just mentioned it, not expecting Chairman Tang to still remember it now.

He even personally invited his girlfriend to participate in the team building.

"Alright, don't be so polite." Tang Song patted his shoulder and turned to walk toward the conference room.

Sun Youguang returned to the office excitedly, opened his girlfriend's WeChat chat box, and excitedly talked about the Wushan team building.

He knew that although his girlfriend never complained, she was actually like a normal girl.

She liked traveling, liked the sea, and liked romance.

They had been graduated for more than four years, and in order to buy a house and get married, they basically hadn't been to any scenic spots outside the city, at most occasionally turning around Yancheng.

Having such a good opportunity this time, they should indeed cherish it.

After a long while.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—"

【Li Juan: "Dear, I have something to tell you."】

Sun Youguang was stunned and asked quickly: "What's wrong?"

【Li Juan: "Sorry, dear, (#tears) our company might lay off employees recently. I heard that we lost a big client, business has decreased by a third, and the money earned is also much less. The leader told me to work overtime more recently and perform well to see if I can escape this wave of layoffs."】

【Li Juan: "I haven't been to the seaside yet and really want to go to Wushan to play, but I really can't ask for leave."】

Seeing his girlfriend's message, Sun Youguang's heart also rose, and he hurriedly began to comfort her.

He knew his girlfriend's thoughts; their biggest dream at present was to buy a house in Yancheng, and they would calculate their small treasury every week.

But the prerequisite for all this was having a stable job, and relying on just one person wouldn't work.

Yancheng has numerous financial and economic colleges and majors, cultivating a large number of finance and accounting graduates every year, and talent from other places also flows in, making the competition extremely fierce.

It is very difficult for ordinary finance and accounting personnel to find jobs.

Once his girlfriend resigns, it might take several months to find a job, and then their goal for the end of the year wouldn't be completed.

After comforting his girlfriend, Sun Youguang sighed, opened a recruitment website, and began to check recruitment information in Yancheng.

There were indeed some good companies recruiting, and his girlfriend had no problems with work experience and skills.

Unfortunately, the competition was too fierce; it was estimated that one would have to queue for several days just for an interview.

Occasionally, Sun Youguang would also fantasize about what if his girlfriend had great luck and entered a good company like Songmei Apparel.

High benefits, good environment, stable work.

For example, this information just released by Lanfeng International Hotel Co., Ltd. a few days ago.

It wasn't far from the Yunxi Building where he worked, and it was also a well-known five-star hotel.

Although it was an ordinary finance position, the salary and benefits were all great.

It would be great if his girlfriend could work there.

Of course, Sun Youguang was just thinking about it.

……

"Knock, knock, knock—"

Gently knocking on the door, Tang Song stepped into the spacious and bright conference room.

Gao Mengting, who was operating a laptop, looked up, and her eyes instantly brightened.

Her red lips parted slightly, and her voice was gentle: "Chairman Tang, you're here."

"Good afternoon, Mengting." Tang Song sat down directly beside her, looking at this partner with a smile, "This dress suits you very well; come to think of it, this is the first time I've seen you wear a dress, it's really beautiful."

Today, Gao Mengting rarely wore a brightly colored dress, which very well outlined her well-proportioned and soft figure.

Paired with exquisite and beautiful facial features and thick hair, she looked very eye-catching.

A typical "atmosphere beauty."

Feeling Tang Song's appreciative gaze, Gao Mengting couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, "Thanks for the compliment, but Chairman Tang is also very handsome."

As she spoke, she crossed her legs and winked at Tang Song triumphantly.

Looking at his partner's cute little expression, Tang Song reached out calmly and gently wrapped his arm around her waist.

"Hey, are you acting like a hooligan in the company again?" Gao Mengting's face flushed slightly, and she looked away slightly, saying: "This is the conference room."

Tang Song pursed his lips and chuckled, leaning forward to kiss her on the face.

The wisps of perfume, mixed with the pleasant fragrance on her body, were very provocative.

"Ah…" Gao Mengting's body trembled, and a pleasant exclamation came from her mouth.

Seeing her interesting reaction, Tang Song couldn't help but kiss her two more times.

His slender fingers moved slowly, feeling the curves of her waist through the thin cotton dress, feeling exceptionally satisfied in his heart.

Although this partner's figure didn't have any particularly large protruding points, the main thing was that it was well-proportioned.

Gao Mengting's face was red, "I've already notified Yiyi to come to the meeting; she'll be here in a while, don't mess around."

"Then kiss me." Tang Song's hand stopped moving.

Gao Mengting's moist eyes looked at his handsome face, and her throat couldn't help but roll up and down.

Her body lifted slightly, greedily kissing his chin.

Immediately after, her lips were firmly held, and there was an extra hand on her empty buttocks.

Tang Song took a deep breath, seriously feeling his partner's wonderful lips, soft buttocks, and well-proportioned legs.

Their eyes met, and Gao Mengting's body instantly stiffened, motionless.

After a while, her body softened and leaned into Tang Song's arms, as if she couldn't summon any strength at all.

Looking at his partner's intense reaction, Tang Song blinked in surprise.

No… is she that sensitive?

Gently biting his tongue, Gao Mengting stood up with difficulty.

"Are you okay, Mengting?"

Gao Mengting rolled her eyes at him, whispering: "I'll go out first."

After speaking, she walked out in a hurry.

Even she didn't expect that her body would have such a big reaction.

Just as she opened the door of the conference room, she saw He Yiyi walking toward her.

"Chairman Gao."

"That… Yiyi, Chairman Tang has already arrived; you go in first, I'm going to the restroom, I'll be back soon."

"Oh, oh, okay." He Yiyi nodded vigorously, looking inside along the open door.

Her eyes instantly shone brightly.

Still as handsome! To be precise, he's even more handsome! It makes people drool!

"Slurp—"

Closing the door casually, He Yiyi stood in front of Tang Song, her voice soft and sweet: "Good afternoon, Chairman Tang, you look stunning today!"

"Haha, sit down, Yiyi, let's wait for Mengting to come back before we start the meeting." Tang Song looked at He Yiyi, who had changed quite a bit, and smiled: "How have you been lately? Are you exhausted?"

After becoming a big streamer, she had her own styling team, and her outfits and makeup were all excellent; she was becoming more and more like a public figure.

"Lately…," He Yiyi said with deep emotion, "To be honest, I feel like I'm dreaming."

This past month or so was the busiest and most rewarding period of her life.

Just a few days ago, she spent 500,000 yuan at a price of 10 yuan per share to trade 5% of the equity from Gao Mengting.

She officially became one of the company's shareholders.

This money was all earned by herself.

As a company streamer, in addition to her basic salary, there were also sales commissions and performance bonuses.

Even though the proportion agreed with the company before wasn't high, and the commission was calculated based on net profit, it still made her earn a lot.

Not to mention that after the "He Yiyi" IP took off, Tang Song also actively increased her commission proportion.

Her life was completely turned around.

During this period, there were actually many MCNs, e-commerce companies, and live-streaming agencies that found her and gave very tempting conditions.

But they were all rejected by her.

Just kidding, except for Chairman Tang's "honey trap," we don't accept any temptations!

We are absolutely loyal to Songmei Apparel!

The two chatted for less than two minutes when Gao Mengting, who had returned to calm, walked in.

The three shareholders gathered together to look at the cost accounting document and chatted about the company's recent operations.

Tang Song leaned on the edge of the conference table, looking at them and saying: "I called you for a small meeting this time, besides looking at the reports, there is also an important matter to talk about, which is about the company's next important development plan."

"What plan?"

He Yiyi raised her right hand high: "Chairman Tang, please speak, I will obey your arrangements 100%."

Tang Song smiled, his tone confident and calm: "Just like what you just said, Songmei Apparel will enter a stable period next. We need to seize the current heat and fan stickiness, improve profit margins, and build long-term commercial assets, and the best choice is to create our own women's clothing brand……"

Next, he began to elaborate on his views on "branding" to the two from multiple dimensions.

The 【Growth Plan Task】 was his main task, so naturally, he had to pay extra attention to it.

Now that his charm had just broken through 70, his investment tasks were all completed, and Rongliu Capital was still in transition.

The first thing to do was to arrange the next work for Songmei Apparel.

Branding and monthly sales exceeding 100 million were not things that could be completed in a short time and would inevitably consume a lot of his energy and time.

In fact, he could also understand the intention of the plan task, hoping that he would create and operate a successful enterprise from beginning to end.

In this process, he did indeed gain a lot and was also subtly increasing his charm score.

With his clear and fluent expression, Gao Mengting and He Yiyi soon understood what he meant, and their hearts began to beat wildly.

What Tang Song said was undoubtedly a path that every company wanted to take, and it was a very correct path.

Although Songmei Apparel now had Jinxiu Trading as a supply channel and could get low prices, those products didn't have any differentiation or exclusivity.

What they could get, others could also get.

For example, a trench coat they had a blowout order for a while ago appeared in a competing live-streaming room the next day, and the price was even lower.

Causing the return rate of this single product to exceed 60%.

And creating a brand could allow them to master the initiative in product design, production, pricing, and other links, not be constrained by suppliers, and timely adjust product strategies according to market changes and consumer needs.

Listening to Tang Song's words, He Yiyi felt a rush of hot blood go straight to her brain.

So exciting! This handsome president is too exciting!

From starting to promote her, to later spending huge sums of money on packaging, creating a persona, and pushing traffic, to now wanting to create a personal clothing brand for her.

She knew too well the benefits of doing so.

As long as she could succeed, she could achieve the leap from a simple streamer to a brand manager.

Looking at Tang Song's handsome figure, He Liting shouted in her heart: "Benefactor is above! Please accept Yiyi's bow; Yiyi has nothing to repay, if you don't abandon me, I am willing to offer myself!"

When Tang Song stopped, Gao Mengting pursed her red lips: "Chairman Tang, creating your own clothing brand is the right choice, but… isn't it a bit too fast?"

Wanting to build your own brand is not easy, and it can even be said that the threshold is very high.

Brand building, assembling a professional team, establishing stable supply chain resources, and establishing long-term cooperation with excellent OEM factories.

All of these require a lot of resources.

"I understand what you mean." Tang Song smiled and said: "Don't worry, this matter is not something that can be achieved overnight, and I won't make a decision impulsively.

What you need to do next is to determine a new operation plan with the team, continuously increase fan stickiness, and let He Yiyi build her own personal style in outfits; I will solve other aspects."

Gao Mengting nodded seriously: "I understand."

Unlike a strong woman like Xie Shu Yu.

The long-term tacit understanding and 100% trust in Tang Song made Gao Mengting not hesitate.

As long as he made a decision, she would execute it seriously.

……

Fanfu Suzi Culture Media.

"I didn't expect that I, Miss Xu Qing, would have this day! Hahaha!" Xu Qing giggled for a while, her dark eyes full of happy smiles.

After being injected with 24 million yuan by Tang Song, the development of Fanfu Suzi was particularly rapid.

The number of people in the short drama production department and short drama distribution department had doubled.

The original office seemed exceptionally crowded; a while ago, the company also rented the vacant office area next door.

They officially moved in this afternoon.

As a small shareholder with 2% of the shares, Xu Qing moved into a small office.

Calling it an office, it was actually a storage room that had been renovated before; it was very small, and the surroundings were enclosed by frosted glass, which was a bit crude.

But these were not issues; the important thing was that she, Xu Qing, could write novels in the company without scruples!

Even if she wrote "doujinshi," it wouldn't matter!

From now on, she could do whatever she wanted here and be an "outlaw."

Long live!

Touching the Hermès watch on her wrist, she looked at the LV wallet on the table.

Then thinking of the "Golden Alliance" reward that was about to arrive, as well as the manuscript fees that had broken historical highs.

Xu Qing put her hands on her hips and looked around, feeling that she was already so awesome that this earth couldn't hold her anymore.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—" The phone on the table suddenly began to vibrate.

【Mom】

Looking at the caller information, Xu Qing showed a triumphant smile.

"Wealthy and not returning to one's hometown is like wearing brocade in the night"; it was time to let her old mom re-recognize her!

Answering the phone, Xu Qing leaned on the office chair, beaming with joy: "Hello, Han Nushi, why did you suddenly think of calling me?"

"I just missed our baby Qingqing."

"Next month is the Mid-Autumn Festival; I'll go back to see you guys then."

The mother and daughter chatted about family life for a while.

Xu Qing was just about to start showing off.

Han Yajing suddenly said: "By the way, Qingqing, do you remember Little Duan?"

Xu Qing blinked her big eyes, "What Little Duan?"

"It's the son of your dad's colleague, the one who got into Jin Ling University before."

"Oh~ Duan… Duan…"

"Duan Haonan!"

"Right, right, right, that's the name." Xu Qing said in surprise: "Why suddenly mention him?"

"I'll send you his WeChat in a while; you guys chat online first." Han Yajing said happily: "He's now a company manager; last time he came home driving an Audi, I've seen him, he's getting more and more spirited."

Hearing this, Xu Qing instantly understood what her old mom wanted to do.

Where could Miss Xu Qing, who was in the limelight and in high spirits, endure such grievances?

The corners of her mouth raised a disdainful smile, and she said lightly: "Han Nushi, you don't think I lack a boyfriend, do you? You seem to know nothing about your excellent daughter."

"What do you mean? What are you talking about?"

Xu Qing leaned back, crossing her legs, and said: "Never mind, I won't pretend anymore, I'm showing my cards.

The novels I write have achieved remarkable results, and I am already a well-known female writer.

At the same time, the short drama for which I personally serve as the screenwriter has entered the preliminary planning stage.

The 120,000 yuan I took from home a while ago was indeed used for investment; now I am the 4th largest shareholder of our company and have an independent office."

"Really?"

Xu Qing said firmly: "Of course it's true! You can go ask Sister Yan Yan!"

Although there was an element of exaggeration, the matter was indeed true.

"Hiss—" A gasp of shock came from the receiver from Han Nushi, "I believe it! Can I not understand my own daughter?!"

Feeling her old mom's reaction, Xu Qing felt so good that all the pores on her body opened up.

As if she had truly entered the persona of "Xu Yanqing."

She said lightly: "Heh, it's not that I'm saying, but how could you be embarrassed to introduce someone like Little Duan to me? Let me briefly tell you about two of my pursuers."

"You… you say… Mother is listening!" Han Nushi's voice trembled slightly.

"One is the president of a listed company, under 30 years old, with a prominent family background, and a rather domineering and cold personality; he was just dumped by me a while ago and is still pestering me.

The one I'm currently in contact with is a top investment company executive, who also has equity in many companies under his name, such as media, hotels, and so on.

His looks exceed Edison Chen and Daniel Wu, his personality is gentle and considerate, and the gift he gave me for Qixi Festival was worth more than 100,000 yuan; there are Hermès, LV, Chanel, and so on."

"Gulp—" Han Nushi swallowed, "Is it true? Is this true?"

"I'll send you a photo in a while." Xu Qing twisted her little buttocks, "Some things, if I say too much, I'm afraid you'll feel a sense of distance from me, your daughter, but you actually wanted to introduce me to a blind date? It's simply turning the world upside down!"

"Mother was wrong!" Han Nushi said hurriedly: "Hurry up and send a photo for me to see!"

"Sigh, alright, I'll hang up first, bye-bye."

She hung up the phone.

Xu Qing opened her album, found the video of the Qixi gift box, and shared it directly with her old mom.

【Mom: "It's so beautiful, it really is a Qixi gift for you!"】

【Mom: "Do you have a photo of that boy? Nothing else, Mother just wants to see what someone who looks more handsome than Edison Chen looks like."】

Xu Qing's eyes rolled around, thought for a moment, found a photo Tang Song had sent her on WeChat before, and forwarded it directly.

The two were used to sending pictures when chatting, most of which were her cosplay pictures.

? ￠O

Sometimes when Tang Song was in the mood, he would also take a few daily photos to send to her.

The one she sent to her old mom was taken by Tang Song sitting in the study of the large open-plan apartment, with a magnificent and atmospheric bookshelf behind him, which was very stylish.

There was silence for a long while.

【Mom: "Oh my god! Unbelievable!" (Voice message)】

Seeing that her old mom's English was blown out, Xu Qing couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Although she was exaggerating the facts, most of them were true.

Little Song Zi gave her a Qixi gift and touched her buttocks; he was clearly chasing her!

I, Miss Xu Qing, am very charming!

Just as she was letting her imagination run wild.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—"

【Mom: Screenshot. jpg】

Xu Qing was stunned and clicked on the screenshot in surprise.

It was a screenshot of a high-speed rail ticket order, from her hometown to Yancheng.

【Mom: "Next week is the wedding of your Aunt Zhang's Xuanxuan, and they are going to hold a banquet in Yancheng. Originally, I wanted to go over secretly to give you a surprise, but you gave Mother a huge surprise! Bring your boyfriend along when the time comes, and let Mother show off in front of old friends!"】

Xu Qing: (°°)
