Chapter 239: Project Bonus

“President Chen, here’s the report I prepared. Please have a look.”

Luo Yuan said as he handed the report to President Chen.

A report?

Chen Mo was puzzled but reached out to take the report from Luo Yuan.

He opened it and casually glanced through it. However, as soon as he saw the word “agent,” he realized something was amiss.

After reading the entire report, he was stunned.

Over 60 agents.

His most conspicuous employee had quietly brought in over 60 agents for him.

“What’s the situation with these 60 agents?”

He looked up at Luo Yuan. This didn’t match Luo Yuan’s capabilities!

Based on his observations of Luo Yuan, it seemed impossible for him to single-handedly recruit over 60 agents.

There must be something he didn’t know.

Luo Yuan scratched the back of his head, a bit embarrassed, and explained.

“President Chen, I used a bit of a shortcut to recruit these agents. They’re all employees of our company.”

“You mean these 60 agents are all employees of the Clothing Factory?”

“Not exactly, there are also employees from Cangxue Games…”

Luo Yuan chuckled sheepishly.

Seeing Luo Yuan’s smile, Chen Mo couldn’t help but rub his temples.

His own employees joining his clothing brand as agents.

This Luo Yuan really had some ideas!

Despite his trust in him, Luo Yuan had pulled a fast one on him.

Was there no one he could truly trust among his employees? Chen Mo sighed inwardly.

He looked at Luo Yuan with a calm expression.

“Our Clothing Factory’s reputation hasn’t been established yet. If they join now, there’s a high chance they might face losses. So, I don’t recommend our employees join the clothing brand as agents.”

“Explain this to those employees. If they want to back out, they can terminate their contracts unconditionally.”

He hoped that once they understood the situation, they would resolve the contracts quickly.

He wasn’t expecting to resolve all of them, but even a partial resolution would be good.

“President Chen, I’ve already explained these pros and cons to the employees. We confirmed everything multiple times before signing the contracts. So those who signed are aware that the Clothing Factory isn’t well-known yet and that there might be initial losses.”

Luo Yuan quickly explained. He had considered this when recruiting company employees.

After all, they were his colleagues. If he hid the truth, it would damage President Chen’s reputation.

He couldn’t bring himself to do such a thing.

Listening to Luo Yuan’s response, Chen Mo’s last hope for contract termination faded.

He waved his hand weakly.

“I understand the situation with the agents now. You can go.”

“Alright, President Chen.”

Luo Yuan got up and left the office.

However, he was a bit puzzled. When he informed President Chen about the agents, President Chen didn’t seem pleased.

No, it must be that President Chen was deliberately pretending to be displeased.

Wu Yu had mentioned this before. President Chen wasn’t unhappy; he was just worried about showing excitement and making them complacent.

That must be it.

Luo Yuan quickly adjusted his mindset, reining in his previous excitement.

These 60 deals were largely thanks to President Chen’s influence, which made the signing process smooth.

There was nothing for him to be proud of.

Only by bringing in agents from outside would he truly prove his capability.

Luo Yuan thought to himself, feeling a bit troubled. Without help, he hadn’t managed to recruit any agents.

He knew all the tricks and tips for doing business, but the results were mediocre.

Compared to Wu Yu and Cai Jing, he was far behind.

What should he do?

As Luo Yuan pondered, he walked into the Business Department office. Seeing a few salespeople still there, he suddenly had an idea.

His own business skills might be lacking, but he knew a lot about running a business. Much of this knowledge was passed down by veteran salesperson Wei Yan.

These insights hadn’t helped him much.

But what if he shared them with the new salespeople?

Luo Yuan’s eyes lit up. If he couldn’t improve his own skills, he could at least help the newcomers.

After all, these salespeople had been around for a while but hadn’t secured any agents yet.

He decided to take some time to share what he knew with them.

“Good evening, Department Head Luo!”

The salespeople greeted Luo Yuan as he entered.

“Do you all have plans for later?”

Luo Yuan asked, looking at the salespeople.

“Not really, we’re just dividing territories and planning to go out for business once we’re done.”

“Forget about business for today. I’m going to share some business insights. These tips were compiled by experienced salespeople and should be helpful to you.”

Luo Yuan said, heading to the whiteboard in the office.

…

In the boss’s office,

Chen Mo looked at the report Luo Yuan had written, speechless.

The income from [Extreme Survival] was already giving him a headache.

Now, with over 60 more agents, each paying a 100,000 fee, that was 6 million!

He had initially raised the agent fee to 100,000 to make recruiting difficult, but Luo Yuan had turned the tables on him.

The high agent fees had brought in a substantial amount of funds.

Chen Mo sighed helplessly.

The agents had signed on, and he couldn’t force the employees to terminate their contracts. He could only think of ways to spend the money.

The workshop space had been rented, and the rent paid. However, Wang Yang’s design and budget weren’t finished, so renovation costs could consume some of the System Funds.

Then there was the annual meeting. Shen Rou had already completed the planning, so they could soon spend some System Funds on it.

Next, there were project bonuses, 13th-month salaries, outstanding employee awards, and year-end benefits.

The 13th-month salary could be distributed with the regular payroll.

Outstanding employee awards and year-end benefits could be given out at the annual meeting.

So now, he needed to distribute the project bonuses.

Having developed such a popular game, he couldn’t shortchange his employees.

With that thought,

He picked up the phone and called Fang Chang.

“President Chen, do you have any instructions?”

The call connected quickly, and Fang Chang respectfully asked.

Chen Mo responded promptly, “Send me the list of personnel and positions involved in the Extreme Survival project, and also the list from the previous Tianlong project.”

The revenue from Tianlong had been steadily increasing.

So, naturally, there should be a year-end project bonus as well.
