Chapter 66



Shenzhen City, CBD Central Business District, Fortune Building, 68th Floor. [StarryLive] Headquarters.

At 10 p.m., it is still brightly lit. The special nature of the live broadcast platform requires that employees often work at night.

Zhang Guangjie half leaned against his executive chair. His eyes are staring at the 32-inch screen in front of him. His eyes seemed to have a huge storm being formed, and a horrible power would erupt at any time.

This 40-year-old middle-aged man is tall, and has average looks, one that belongs to any passer-by who can be found within a crowd, but more than 200 employees of StarryLive Media Company have deep memories of his image.

Because Zhang Guangjie is the CEO of StarryLive Media Company. He has a strong iron hand1and is very popular. If any employee is inadvertently caught by him, the end result is often very miserable.

Since he joined StarryLive Media, the number of employees who have been dismissed under his hand has reached double digits!

At this moment, the cloud over the CEO’s face shows that his anger has accumulated to a high degree.

Just waiting for a victim to appear!

Ringring~

The telephone on the side of the computer suddenly rang, and the red light that were flashing show that the call request came from the inside line.

Zhang Guangjie reached out and pressed the connect button.

The gentle and sweet voice of his secretary was heard from the phone, “Chief Zhang, Manager Zhao has come.”

Zhang Guangjie said, “Let him in.”

After that, he cut off the call.

After a moment, a thin-faced man with small eyes and a hooked nose pushed open the door of the office and walked in. When he saw Zhang Guangjie, he immediately asked respectfully, “Chief Zhang, are you looking for me?”

Zhang Guangjie nodded expressionlessly: “Sit down.”

The thin-faced man swallowed his saliva subconsciously and sat down cautiously opposite Zhang Guangjie.

Zhao Deping is the manager of StarryLive Media Operations Management Department. He is a figure in the Operations Management Department. However, in the face of Zhang Guangjie, he is not much different from ordinary employees.

He is a mouse, and Zhang Guangjie is a cat!

Zhao Deping knows very well that with a word from Zhang Guangjie, he can roll down from the throne of being the Operations Management Manager.

After sitting down, Zhang Guangjie did not speak and just stared at Zhao Deping until the latter had sweat on his forehead.

Zhang Guangjie suddenly asked, “Manager Zhao, how long have you been in StarryLive Media?”

Zhao Deping quickly answered, “Two years, almost two years.”

[StarryLive] has not been established that long, so Zhao Deping could be considered as an old employee.

“Almost two years...”

Zhang Guangjie sighed and said, “I remember that you changed jobs from [Whale TV], didn’t you? Over the past two years, you have dug a lot of talents for the company. For the [StarryLive] to grow to today’s scale, you have made a lot of contribution.”

As Zhao Deping listen, he had the impulse to burst into tears. He thought he had made a big mistake. Now, listening to Zhang Guangjie’s tone, it seems like he was going to be promoted!

He couldn’t help but relax and secretly laughed at his suspicion.

However, in the next moment, Zhao Deping’s mood was instantly thrown into hell.

“However, many employees responded that you were acting arbitrarily in your work and could not tolerate the opinions of others. Recently, the company had received complaints from several anchors alleging unfair treatment by the Operations Management.”

Zhang Guangjie looked at Zhao Deping with mocking eyes and asked, “What explanation does Manager Zhao have for this?”

Once again, sweat appeared on Zhao Deping’s forehead and he argued, “Chief Zhang, those are...”

“Don’t say those...”

Just as he wanted to explain a few words, he was rudely interrupted by Zhang Guangjie, “You first explain, what is this about?”

The StarryLive Media CEO reached out and turned the display screen in front of him by 180 degrees to show Zhao Deping.

Zhao Deping’s face turned red in an instant!

The screen shows exactly the forums of [Whale TV].

Zhao Deping is very familiar with this because he was an executive at [Whale TV] two years ago. But this is not the reason why his face turned red, but the content of the posts in the forum.

This post was placed high in the “Lu Family Army” section, which included a chart and hundreds of words of complaints. It said that Lu Fei, the anchor, was subjected to suppression from a Super Administrator and was forced to sign an unfair contract in the [StarryLive], which eventually led to the account being blocked and no way to complain.

The one in the screenshot is Super Administrator 002. Who else could that be other than Zhao Deping?

Super Administrator 001 is Zhang Guangjie.

Zhao Deping almost spit out a mouthful of old blood on the spot.

He has long forgotten this matter. it’s not like he has not met one or two young anchor who doesn’t know how to appreciate before, and he has not seen anyone who can raise any storm.

Anyone he suppresses will be suppressed. Anyone he wants to ban will be banned. Anyone who will go along with him will be okay, but anyone who go against him will perish!

[StarryLive]’s anchor, apart from the top anchors, is there anyone he is not allowed to knead?

But Zhao Deping now knows that there are Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon even in the newcomer’s anchor.

This top post was a heavy slap in his face.

Before, it didn’t matter as this was not known, but now it’s being laid out by Zhang Guangjie. Where can he put his face?

Zhang Guangjie said lightly, “I don’t interfere in the affairs of Operations Management Department because I have great trust in Manager Zhao...”

“This anchor, Lu Fei, after being banned by [StarryLive], signed up for [Whale TV].”

“In less than a month, Lu Fei’s highest popularity in [Whale TV] has exceeded 1,000,000, and won the runner-up in the recently concluded PK theme show. At present, Lu Fei’s popularity exceeds 750,000.”

“The people in the brokerage department have seen his live performance and was judged to be a talented singer as a newcomer.”

“What do you think of this, Manager Zhao?”

Zhao Deping finally understood why Zhang Guangjie called him into the office alone. It was just a trivial matter when an anchor complains about their employees. What really killed him was that he had missed a promising newcomer.

In the current situation where [StarryLive] is spending a lot of money to dig out talent, his mistake is simply inexcusable!

And there is no way to argue – the post is clear, there are charts and screenshots about what happened.

Zhao Deping has a mouthful of bitterness. He wanted to defend but cannot find the right reason. And Zhang Guangjie is someone who cannot tolerate unreasonable and unfair things2. And if he deny it, it will only make this CEO more disgusted.

He lowered his head and said painfully, “Chief Zhang, this is all my fault. I will find a way to make up for it!”

Zhang Guangjie sighed, his right index finger gently tapping on the table, as if thinking.

Zhao Deping is like a prisoner waiting to be judged. He feels frighten and uneasy.

“After a long time, Zhang Guangjie asked, “How are you going to make up for it?”

Zhao Deping was suddenly refreshed, like a drowning man caught a straw to save his life. He quickly said, “There should be information about this anchor on the server. I will immediately contact him and give him a high-paying contract!”

“Isn’t the brokerage department optimistic about him? Then I’ll give him another artist contract, I don’t believe I can’t dig him out!”

When it comes to digging people out, Zhao Deping is simply like possessed by the gods, all his self-confidence all returned to his body in an instant.

Zhao Deping started at [Whale TV], and after he went to [StarryLive], he has dug back more than a dozen anchors from [Whale TV]. In terms of the ability to dug people, he is really not afraid of anyone!

Zhang Guangjie nodded and said, “I’ve already found out that Lu Fei’s current contract is an ordinary one. His signing fee is 50,000 yuan, but whale TV will definitely re-sign a new contract with him. You don’t have much time.”

Zhao Deping knows that even though Zhang Guangjie said that he does not interfere in the affairs of the Operations Management Department, but the fact is that the CEO has a strong control over the company and has many insiders in his hand. So, he is very well informed.

“That’s great!”

He immediately stood up and said, “I’ll contact Lu Fei right away and talk to him face to face about the contract tomorrow!”

Zhang Guangjie said, “He should be in the Capital. You should go and come back quickly. Recently, the company will hold similar activities.”

Knowing that he had finally broken through, Zhao Deping said hurriedly, “I’ll have someone book a plane ticket right away!”

Zhang Guangjie nodded again and said, “Old Zhao, I’ll give you this chance. If this thing goes wrong, then I have no reason to help you suppress the internal opposition within the company, do you understand?”

Zhao Deping listened with a chill in his heart.

Suddenly he felt that the air-conditioning temperature in the office was too low!

TN: For those who has forgotten. Zhao Deping first appeared in the novel at Chapter 19 as Super Administrator 002.

TN: The raw state that it’s Starlight Media Company. For consistency, I’ve used StarryLive as this was used in the early chapters by the previous translator. And You Who Sat Next To Me and You At The Same Table is the same song.

TN: For those who still don’t know what this mean. This mean he runs the company with a strict or harsh control. And not literally he has an iron hand.1

TN: The original text was 眼里揉不下沙子 which translated to I can’t see the sand in my eyes. I think this a Chinese idiom. The analogy is very strict and clear on the principles and the bottom line, and it is not allowed to make mistakes and violations.2
