Rebirth of the King of Waves

Chapter 172 The Relationship of Connections
"Your exterior design is quite good, but once inside, there should be a dedicated advertising page highlighting our core services. You need to make sure users see the words 'full refund' immediately."

"Then they'll add some high-sounding stuff, like something like 'safeguarding your health.'"

"There's another issue: many visitors won't register immediately after entering the page. Oh well, I'll find a marketing planner first and have him coordinate with you later. Let's try to finish it within three days."

Ning Bishu glanced at the app and, unsurprisingly, found the new product riddled with problems.

But we can't blame Wang Rui and Zhang Huyu either.

The main problem was that he himself spoke too hastily, so the two children just gave him a perfunctory response.

Moreover, interface design is not something the technical department needs to consider in the first place.

Essentially, it's still about figuring out how to lure users in and then exploit them.

Behind the seemingly simple operation page lies the professional deception and trickery skills of the planning and marketing departments.

Ning Bishu himself is actually very strong in this area.

But he has so many things to do right now, so...

"We need to find some help."

Ning Bishu immediately returned to the XX Building, grabbed Zhan Zhao who was still pointing and gesturing at the workers, and asked, "President Zhan, can you help me get someone now? I need it right now."

"Now?" Zhan Zhao saw his boss return and suddenly make such an outrageous request. He immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't even mention now! Even if it's the middle of the night, I'll bring him here for you!"

"Xiao Ning, I may not have many other skills, but with my connections from elementary to high school, I can tell you, if you want a Harvard degree, I can't say for sure, but if you want Tsinghua or Peking University... ha... I can pull out a whole platoon for you to choose from in a heartbeat!"

Ning Bishu shook his head, completely disbelieving, "You're bragging."

"President Ning, you're insulting my core competitiveness!"

Without saying a word, Zhan Zhao pulled up his high school classmates' QQ group and posted an announcement: "Does anyone know of any 985 university graduates who have recently been laid off by big companies? I need a human resources manager, annual salary of 20 yuan, local residents of X state preferred! Successful applicants will get a 5000 yuan referral fee from the person who referred them, first come first served! @All members @All members @All members

Less than three minutes after I sent it, dozens of messages popped up in the group.

"Me! Me! Me! I have someone here who graduated from XX University with a major in XX, is 36 years old, and was laid off by Tencent last year!"

"Brother Zhao! My cousin was a P6 at Ant Financial! He was in HR, and he was laid off two years ago!"

"I know someone who graduated from Stanford, returned to China to start a business but failed, and is now looking for a job!"

"A crypto trading addict who has managed over 10 billion RMB in funds, you'd pack your bags the moment you get a 30 RMB annual salary!"

"I have a classmate who went bust in the 18 real estate speculation frenzy. He used to be the assistant to the vice president of XX Group. He had some depression before, but he's better now. I'd go for him for 25 yuan. Yes, I'm that stupid idiot who went bust in real estate speculation! Brother Zhao, please mentor me!"

"I'm in X Prefecture right now, Brother Zhao, where are you? Let's chat!"

"I only need 20!"

"Liang Junbo, have some decency! You're still dragging this into this situation? Brother Zhao, I only need 18!"

Zhan Zhao held the phone up to Ning Bishu and gave him a flirtatious wink.

"Hiss~~~" Ning Bishu gasped, "I never expected that so many talented people would be living among the common people."

Zhan Zhao asked, "So? Which one do you want?"

"Which one do you want?" Ning Bishu laughed. "Do I even need to think about it? You organize a class reunion for me right now. Let's meet tomorrow afternoon. You take a count of the attendees and make sure everyone you can invite comes by 11 a.m. tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Zhan Zhao's eyes lit up immediately. "President Ning, you're capable of great things!"

Ning Bishu said, "The main reason is that I don't want to drag things out. This project of mine, let me tell you, is all or nothing. If it works, it works; if it doesn't, it doesn't. I'm handing this over to you from now on, President Zhan. I trust the people I use, and this group of people will be under your management from now on."

"Today, get all the heads of administration, finance, marketing, and other departments you can think of ready. We'll use my uncle's people for the tech department. You're the president of Bishu Health, are you in or not?"

Zhan Zhao's eyes weren't just shining, they were practically sparkling! His voice trembled as he said, "I never imagined that after being a terrible student for half my life, you'd ask me to manage this group of students who are all from top universities... My lord! I will give my life for you!"

"Then start doing this for now. It's a three-month trial period. If you do well, I'll give you stock options."

Ning Bishu patted Zhan Zhao on the shoulder.

Zhan Zhao nodded emphatically: "Your Majesty, rest assured, leave everything to me!"

“Okay.” Ning Bishu nodded, then added, “Eat well tomorrow, and pay the introduction fee as well. We’re a large company with tens of millions in registered capital now, so we have to keep our word.” He then turned around and transferred 2 yuan to Zhan Zhao.

Judging from the intensity of Zhan Zhao's outburst in the high school group chat just now, he doesn't seem like he's going to keep his word at all.

But Zhan Zhao didn't care.

What kind of introduction costs 5000 yuan? Money isn't that easy to earn!
It's just a message, 500 is too much!

After giving Zhan Zhao his instructions, Ning Bishu turned and left again.

Watching the boss leave, Ma Chao whispered to Zhan Zhao, "Brother, the boss was just making empty promises."

"You think making a big promise is so easy?" Zhan Zhao laughed. "Alright, you keep an eye on things here. Call me if there are any problems. Don't let them stop working before 9 p.m., and let them continue before 8 a.m. tomorrow. The renovations here must be finished within three days."

"Hmm..." Ma Chao nodded.

Zhan Zhao turned and left. A short while later, he drove Ning Bishu's extended Range Rover out of the underground parking garage with a flourish.

Only Ma Chao, a student who hadn't even graduated from university yet, was left on site to oversee the work of six different renovation teams.

I felt both insecure and eager to post something on social media to show off to my classmates.

So he acted on his idea immediately, snapping a bunch of photos and posting them on his WeChat Moments, saying: "Stock God Ning Bishu's project is open for business, Bishu Health, the company headquarters is under renovation. This supervisor is under a lot of pressure."

He also included a selfie of himself wearing a red hat and making a V sign with his left hand.

Before long, a group of classmates below sent envious greetings.

"Ning Bishu? That beast who forced others to eat shit online and made 2 million yuan by fleecing investors in the A-share market?"

"That beast who used his girlfriend as a bedmate?"

"That 'super-male psychopath' who sued 315 netizens?"

Not a single kind word...

Ma Chao angrily retorted, "You're all just jealous of me!"

However, the students persisted—

"Chaozi, listen to my advice, you can't have a boss like this."

"Even making money should follow basic principles. What kind of trash is Ning Bishu?"

"Gambling addicts are all bad people."

"What a small world! I was cursing Ning Bishu in the comments on his last Weibo post. My mom just lost over 300 million yuan, and then I saw Ning Bishu thanking all the A-share users for their support. I really curse his whole family..."

Ma Chao's eyelids twitched.

I wondered to myself, is Ning Bishu's reputation really that bad now?
So how do we proceed with this project?
Just as I was muttering to myself, my phone suddenly rang again.

Upon seeing that it was his boss's uncle calling, he quickly answered and exclaimed, "Uncle!"

"Haha, already getting things done?" Di Guofeng laughed. "Are you at the construction site? Is Xiao Ning with you?"

"No, he's not here. President Ning just left."

"Oh, then... where's that guy, Zhan Zhao?"

"He just left too."

"So now you're the only one keeping watch?"

“Yes,” Ma Chao said. “Zhan Zhao said this area is all under my jurisdiction. Uncle, am I being exploited?”

"Hahaha..." Di Guofeng laughed twice. "Exploiting you is also giving you a chance to train. So do a good job. If anything happens, just tell me. If there's any trouble on site, just call XXX. I'll send you his mobile number. He's the director of Jiangbin Police Station X. Tell him my name and he'll be there within three minutes."

Ma Chao listened to his uncle's words and then turned to look at the hardworking workers on site.

With a firm resolve, she smiled and replied, "Okay."
