Chapter 249: Luo Yuan’s Decision

“How could it possibly not cost that much? Just make the equipment and buildings a bit nicer, and the money will be spent.”

Chen Mo casually found an excuse.

The funds had already been allocated, so how Pang Tao spent them was no longer his concern.

After exchanging a few more words, he hung up the phone.

He had just sat down when Li Shen and Wu Yu knocked and entered.

“What’s up?”

Chen Mo looked at Li Shen and Wu Yu, rubbing his temples in exasperation.

Ever since announcing the holiday, he hadn’t had a moment’s rest today.

“President Chen, the Boring Short Video app has been developed and launched. Should we proceed quickly with recruiting hosts?”

Li Shen stepped forward and asked.

“It’s already developed? Let me take a look.”

Chen Mo was taken aback. The app had been completed so quickly?

He hurriedly opened his phone to download the software and soon found Boring Short Video, clicking to download.

Once the download was successful, he entered the app.

The overall interface was similar to other short video platforms on the market.

He scrolled through it casually, but since there were no users yet, the video feed was currently a blank space.

“Not bad. As for recruiting hosts, just follow the requirements I previously outlined. You remember them, right?”

Chen Mo looked up at Li Shen and Wu Yu.

He needed to confirm this clearly, or else these two might forget his previous instructions, which would be troublesome.

“Don’t worry, President Chen, we’ve got it all memorized.”

Li Shen and Wu Yu patted their chests confidently.

“Recite it.”

Chen Mo didn’t trust these two at all.

Li Shen and Wu Yu exchanged a glance, then took turns recounting the requirements.

Hearing this, Chen Mo finally nodded in satisfaction.

It seemed these two really had remembered, so there was nothing more to say.

“Alright, just follow these requirements to recruit the hosts.”

“Okay, President Chen. But since Boring Short Video is already online and hasn’t had any downloads yet, shouldn’t we do some promotion to increase its exposure, or maybe hold some events to attract users?”

Li Shen continued to ask.

He knew that other short video platforms had done a lot of promotion and events upon launch.

Those with financial resources advertised on variety shows and TV.

Others held reward events, offering monetary incentives for posting short videos.

Either way, these were methods to attract users.

Listening to Li Shen, Chen Mo glanced at him with an indifferent expression.

This guy still wanted to do promotions. He really couldn’t sit still anywhere, always thinking about attracting users. Not a chance.

He waved his hand and spoke calmly.

“There’s no rush for promotions. First, recruit enough hosts. Without them, attracting users is pointless since they won’t stay.”

Li Shen opened his mouth, feeling that there was something off about President Chen’s logic.

“Alright, let’s not think about promotions for now.”

Chen Mo saw that Li Shen wanted to say more and waved him off.

Once Li Shen and Wu Yu left, the office finally quieted down.

…

Business Department.

Luo Yuan stood by the whiteboard, which was filled with analysis of experiences from running business operations.

“All the experiences are here. How much you can digest and make your own depends on your practical work.”

Luo Yuan looked at all the salespeople in the office. Over the past few days, he had organized all the sales experience he had learned from Wu Yu and Wei Yan.

He took time each day to teach these new salespeople.

He wasn’t sure if it would help, but it was better than doing nothing.

“Thank you, Department Head Luo.”

After Luo Yuan finished speaking, the sales team thanked him profusely.

These experiences were invaluable and rarely shared.

Luo Yuan waved it off.

“No need to thank me. These experiences were taught to me by senior salespeople. I’m just passing them on.”

“Also, remember that tomorrow is the start of the holiday. But just because the company is on holiday doesn’t mean we have to stop working. You can use this time to continue running business if you want, but it’s up to you.”

Luo Yuan looked at the salespeople. He didn’t require them to work during the holiday.

After all, the holiday was granted by President Chen for rest.

He was merely reminding them, believing that those with ambition wouldn’t waste this time.

…

February 1st.

After having breakfast delivered by Yang Duoduo, Yang Dahai’s family helped carry the luggage downstairs.

Tomorrow was the Little New Year.

Chen Mo planned to return home today so he could celebrate the festival with his family tomorrow.

Downstairs, the New Year’s goods and gifts filled the entire trunk and back seat.

Due to the last unlocked privilege, he had access to the company’s vehicle, so he could drive home this time.

Although it wasn’t a multimillion-dollar luxury car, a 600,000 yuan business car was already impressive in his hometown county.

It would certainly impress the neighbors.

“Xiao Mo, it’s a long drive. Be careful on the road.”

After loading the luggage, Dong Hong reminded him with concern.

“I know. If I get tired, I’ll rest at a service area.”

Chen Mo smiled, then got into the driver’s seat.

“Bye, Brother Chen!”

Yang Duoduo waved her small hand from the side.

“Goodbye!”

Chen Mo waved back and then drove away.

After more than four hours on the road, he finally returned to his hometown, Beiming County. Since he had prepared the New Year’s goods, he didn’t stop at the county mall and drove straight home.

He slowly parked in the lot in front of his community.

As soon as he parked, he caught the attention of the elderly men and women chatting nearby.

“Whose car is this? A Mercedes, that’s a nice car!”

“No idea, first time seeing it today!”

“This car isn’t cheap, must be several hundred thousand.”

“……”

Chen Mo hesitated for a moment, then decided to get out of the car.

He opened the trunk and started unloading the New Year’s goods.

He had bought quite a bit, so it would take a couple of trips.

“Isn’t this Little Mozi? You’re back early this year.”

An elderly woman approached, her loud voice instantly reaching everyone’s ears.
