Chapter 87 (Overhauled, please collect it first, and read it later)
The environment is very suitable for tea and chess. But if it's a chat, it's too much to spoil the atmosphere. So after admiring it for a while, Lin Yi suggested: "You two high school champions, I'll invite you to have a meal!"
Fisher refused: "You are guests from afar, we should invite you." Moreover, CUHK's lemon pie, that's really a must. I definitely regret not eating it when I come!"
Hearing her best friend's suggestion, Qiao Yonglan nodded again and again, with excitement on her face. It seems that this kind of echo is indeed sincere, so let's try it!
The cafeteria is really not close, and I haven't arrived after walking for a long time. Lin Yi of the University of Hong Kong often goes, and he feels much smaller.
Hearing her friend's comparison, Qiao Yonglan hurriedly said: "The area of CUHK is twice that of HKU. It doesn't matter, though. There was an iron rule in the British colonies β only one university was allowed to exist. And the establishment of our CUHK has broken the colonizers' monopoly on education! CUHK launched the 'Chinese Movement' and broke the monopoly of English!"
When she said this, Qiao Yonglan, who was usually low-key, was as proud as a little swan. However, Lin Yi was absolutely not disgusted, and he wanted to give her a thumbs up. All kinds of business documents, he can read and write in Chinese, thanks to this Chinese movement!
In the Li Zhuomin Basic Medical Building, the student cafeteria is ordinary, and the light is relatively dim. But Fisher said: "By three o'clock in the afternoon, there will be a long queue here. Because I came one step late, I couldn't buy my favorite snacks. β
The proprietress took out a large plate of pizza from the refrigerator. However, not only is this pie not hot, but it is also swishing cold in the middle!
Xiangyang Blossom praised while eating: "The cream texture is very soft, not greasy at all." It turns out that there is lemon ice cream in the middle, no wonder it's called lemon pie, and it will be cold!"
Lin Yi echoed his girlfriend: "The bottom layer is a cracker, right? β
Qiao Yonglan corrected: "That golden layer is actually corn flakes." β
The upper layer is soft, the middle is refreshing, and the lower layer is crunchy, with rich layers and a unique taste. This dessert is perfect for a date. No wonder the girls say that it didn't take long for the invention to become famous inside and outside the school!
After the visit of his friends, Lin Yi still did not dare to go back to Tai O. Originally, he didn't have premarital syndrome, but if he was talked about by his eldest sister for a long time, he was afraid that he would be forced out of 'marriage phobia'!
On the cultural industry side, I haven't taken care of it for half a year. With a good excuse, Lin Yi stayed in the city with peace of mind. Of course, the fiancΓ©e must be put back. Otherwise, early tomorrow morning, the quasi-father-in-law and the quasi-security will chase and kill!
Back in Hong Kong, Lin Yi directly burst into foul language: "Nest a big grass!"
Because the house was empty, even the big furniture was gone, which was obviously a gang theft. He gasped, fortunately those important notes were always carried with him, otherwise something would have gone wrong!
Tai O Primary School has just been established, and after Dafang and Uncle Guan moved out, it was not vacant for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be robbed. There was no way to live here, so Lin Yi had to take his bodyguards and find a hotel to live in.
Lin Yi took a short rest, temporarily put aside his worries, and went to Qiao's Publishing House. The first purpose of this trip was to report good news to his subordinates.
The big boss can last for half a year when he is in seclusion! So when he heard that the happy event was coming, everyone took advantage of the excitement and stepped forward to congratulate him.
Everyone asked for the wedding sticker, and Lin Yi hugged his fists and apologized: "The wedding banquet is scheduled for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the family should be reunited on that day, so I won't send the wedding post, and I will have another banquet later." β
He finished socializing and walked into the CEO's office. This is not the original small room, but a large room of fifty square meters. It's not Qiao Anbang who talks about pomp, but Lin Yi's order.
The boss has a big brain, and every once in a while, he will send a new task. The staff of the publishing house has swelled from more than 10 people to more than 100, and the entire building has been rented for two floors. Lao Qiao's secretary is equipped with three, and the small office can't be squeezed at all!
"Yes, it seems that my correct advice, old Joe, you still listened to it!"
"I'm only 41 years old, what's the point of being tired, why do you have to raise so many secretaries?"
Lin Yi's psychological age is actually not younger than the other party, and he directly criticized him when he heard this: "Zhuge Liang is wise and martial, but because he has to bow down to everything, he died of exhaustion in Wuzhang Yuan!
"It's not easy for me to come back, I have to get some benefits for everyone. Our company should have a gym. People who are engaged in writing usually lack exercise and have headaches and brain fever at every turn. You help me tell everyone that they can work only if they are in good health, and their families can rest assured. β
Shaking his head, Qiao Anbang laughed: "We Chinese literati are only willing to exercise the tip of the pen, not the body. If it was a few years ago, the boss would have been able to understand this kind of welfare. At that time, everyone only knew about health, and they didn't know what fitness was!"
After releasing the 'warm spring breeze', Lin Yi opened the work report. Qiao's Publishing House, Gao Fei Novel Studio, and Moyang Comic Studio, with Qiao Anbang's command, the structure is scattered but the management is not chaotic.
Lao Qiao has been tested for a long time, so Lin Yi grasps the big and lets go of the small, and basically only looks at the final summary. Novels earned 4.5 million, comics earned 4 million, and newspapers and magazines earned 1.5 million.
He did some calculations, and then smiled at the CEO: "Last year's 2 million Hong Kong dollars, this year's 2 million US dollars, all of which are thriving! With you here, I can sit firmly in the Diaoyutai." β
"Actually, I want to thank you too. β
"You saved my wife in time, I bought the publishing house cheaply, and none of us owe anyone. β
"Not this one. The boss's concept of the Asian Tigers made the Nanyang Observer break out of Hong Kong and onto the big stage in East Asia and Southeast Asia. The sales volume is approaching 500,000, tied for the first place with "Oriental Daily", which has fulfilled my long-cherished wish for many years!"
Only then did Lin Yi understand what the other party was talking about. After the serialization of the novel stopped, seeing that the sales of the newspaper were declining, he casually gave this concept, but he didn't expect it to really make a big difference.
After talking about his happy news, Qiao Anbang began to praise Lin Yi: "After half a year of tempering, "Young Boys and Girls" sold more than 300,000 copies and became a star magazine. Student supplies manufacturers, that's a real surge. Advertising revenue, rolling up. In just half a year, it has created a net profit of 1 million!"
"Urban comics and Qiong Yao's novels are really greater than one plus one. Lin Yi sighed while enjoying himself. After all, this magazine was planned by him himself, not a gift from time.
Qiao Anbang's eyes made him even more complacent. A man in his forties has a sense of adoration for a young man in his twenties.
Reasonable rewards and punishments are helpful for the progress of the enterprise. Joan Bang has worked hard, and the company must reward him.
However, Lin Yi was a little embarrassed. When he left Hong Kong half a year ago, he was thinking about equity incentives. But after walking around Silicon Valley, I found that in addition to technology companies, ordinary companies only give high salaries. Whether to break the routine or not, he has to think about it seriously.
