Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 288 The World is Big Enough
Being able to become a member of the management of a well-known artist agency can be said to be tied to the interests of the company, and there may even be options in hand to tie the management together.
Generally speaking, those who can make it to management level in a company will not easily leave the platform where they have worked for many years, unless... a better opportunity arises.
Xu Ruoan was not false, and said very frankly: "I have accumulated some resources in the artist management industry over the years. I originally wanted to use these resources to start my own business, but I had some problems with the funds..."
Xu Ruoan answered this kind of question, which is equivalent to a "thunder point" in the interview, very calmly. This is also her usual style.
Xu Ruoan has already done too much to help artists hide their work, and he doesn't want to bring this work content into his life.
The headhunter at the side smiled awkwardly. In his opinion, this was probably a hopeless situation. After all, as a boss, what you hate most is your subordinates having ulterior motives, right?
Zhou Dongsheng asked with interest: "So, you just want to find a job to accumulate experience and use it as a springboard to continue your entrepreneurial journey?"
Xu Ruoan is also single. "I don't rule out this possibility. I will never make promises about things that I am not sure about in the future."
When the headhunter heard this answer, he felt more and more that there was no hope for this interview. With such a rebellious look, which boss would be willing to spend a lot of money to hire such a manager?
The smile on Zhou Dongsheng's face became even wider. In his heart, he felt that Xu Ruoan was a wonderful person. Such a frank and straightforward personality was just right for him.
It is normal for capable people to have some personality, and this is not surprising.
The most important thing is that [Yinian Media] is different from [Xiaorenren Media]. Compared with the live broadcast field, Zhou Dongsheng at least has some understanding of it. He is the kind of person who has seen pigs run even though he has not eaten pork.
Therefore, it is not a problem that Xu Kaidao tends to be a "general who defends the status quo".
However, Internet celebrity MCN organizations such as [Yinian Media] are relatively unfamiliar to Zhou Dongsheng, and he only knows the name but not the purpose.
In addition, there is a certain degree of overlap between the emerging internet celebrity industry and the traditional artist industry, so a senior practitioner like Xu Ruoan is exactly what Zhou Dongsheng needs.
As long as I can bring a mature corporate structure and operation to [Yinian Media], it will be enough. As for whether I will choose to start my own business in the future...
As the saying goes, people's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. Even if they don't say it, does it mean that others don't have this thought? In comparison, those who are willing to speak out are more to Zhou Dongsheng's liking.
After all, a gentleman is open and honest, while a villain hides his secrets.
Perhaps because he has never been a "superior", Zhou Dongsheng has not acquired the habit of being superficial and acts more based on his own preferences.
The most important thing is that compared to when he founded Little People Media, Zhou Dongsheng's mentality has undergone a drastic change.
After all, he is a man with millions of escape routes, and the cost of trial and error is high enough to support Zhou Dongsheng's willful attempts within a certain range.
Zhou Dongsheng's self-confidence comes from his ability to bear failure.
"What a coincidence. I don't want to worry about things that haven't happened yet. I wonder if Ms. Xu can start work right away?"
"Although my company has been established for some time, I still need to solve the problems of company structure and location. Experienced professionals like Ms. Xu can solve my urgent problems."
Zhou Dongsheng spoke casually, but unexpectedly gave people a sense of confidence that he was in control of the situation.
This time it was Xu Ruoan's turn to be surprised, "Oh? Isn't Mr. Zhou worried about this problem?"
"It's your freedom to leave or not. It's my ability to keep people or not. I prefer people who are straightforward rather than those who are secretive." Zhou Dongsheng said seriously.
Damn it, he's pretending to be so confident!
Xu Ruoan couldn't help but smile sincerely, "In that case, I'd be very honored to refuse, Mr. Zhou. I'm ready to take up the post anytime."
"It just so happens that I'm going to interview a video creator tomorrow. She's also the second contract candidate of Yi Nian Media. I also want to hear your opinions as a professional about her operation..."
Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile. Xu Ruoan stretched out her hand generously. Zhou Dongsheng did not refuse and shook hands with her. The matter was settled.
Of course, there is still a probation period, and Xu Ruoan is well aware of this. Especially tomorrow's interview, maybe it will be a chance to prove himself.
In this regard, Xu Ruoan, who has been in the artist economy industry for many years, has already developed a heart that can "remain calm you." After all, you never know what tricks the artist can play on you in the next second.
"Okay, Jiana, you go and book a room for Miss Xu to stay. I'll have to trouble Miss Xu to take care of the company's matters." Zhou Dongsheng waved his hand.
"It's my job, and I hope to prove my worth." Xu Ruoan said with a smile.
The headhunter on the side just laughed at this time, "Congratulations to Mr. Zhou for adding another capable assistant. I believe that with the help of talents like Miss Xu, Mr. Zhou's business will soon be able to reach a higher level..."
"When the time comes, we will need to come to you again to introduce talents, right? Hahaha, happy cooperation." Zhou Dongsheng smiled and extended his hand.
"Happy cooperation, happy cooperation." The headhunter smiled happily.
At this time, Zhou Dongsheng suddenly interrupted, "By the way, Miss Xu, do you have a brother or sister named Qingtian?"
Xu Ruoan was slightly stunned, not knowing what Zhou Dongsheng meant, but she still answered honestly: "No, I am an only child."
Zhou Dongsheng showed a look of regret on his face, "That's really a pity."
Xu Ruoan was puzzled and asked, "Why does Mr. Zhou ask this?"
"Because, if you are well, it will be a sunny day!"
Zhou Dongsheng made a harmless joke, then laughed to himself, seemingly thinking he was very humorous.
The corners of Xu Ruoan's mouth twitched slightly, but she couldn't help but feel that this young boss was so simple and unpretentious, and was different from those other slutty bitches.
…
The next day, a plane that came all the way from Beijing slowly landed at Hangzhou International Airport, and Jiang Yilei and his three companions walked out of the airport exhausted.
In addition to her best friend Huo Nifang, there is also Jiang Yile's boyfriend, whom she has been in love with since college.
It is often said that "behind every successful man there is an unknown woman". However, with the development of the times, just as the great man said that women can hold up half the sky, more and more outstanding women are emerging in this great era and are shining in all walks of life.
Therefore, it would not be a problem to say this sentence the other way around: "Behind every successful woman, there may also be an unknown man." This may be the progress of the times.
Just like a memorable line in a movie, "When a woman stands up, it doesn't mean a man must fall down. We can all stand together. The world is big enough."
The world is big enough and should be able to accommodate more diverse existences, but unfortunately, this has been difficult to achieve so far.
