Chapter 40: The same person
(Readers, Happy May Day!)
(Thank you for catching bugs and opinions. I am very, very happy. This shows that everyone has really read it. Thank you all.)
(As for plot issues, Ah Xian will try his best to adjust them.)
Seeing Lin Huaile laughing, Lin Guosheng looked confused. He didn't know what the other person was laughing about, but he agreed with what the young man said.
"Lin Sheng, since you have read "Playboy", you must have an understanding of its general operations."
"If I become editor-in-chief, how much money can I operate and how much authority do I have?"
Ideals are very important, but people who pursue their dreams must be given permission and steamed buns. Without these two things, talking about lofty ideals is just being a hooligan.
"I prepared two hundred thousand for the magazine."
"Whether it's a semi-monthly or monthly publication, the money should be enough to cope with it."
"As for the editor-in-chief's authority, it doesn't depend on me, but on you."
"If you can become an instant success and make a lot of money every month, I will be happy to be a hands-off shopkeeper."
"Listening to Brother Sheng's question, he must have made a decision in his heart!"
Lin Huaile reached into his pocket to take out a cigarette, but found that the remaining half of the pack of cigarettes had been scattered to Situ Haonan and the others, so he could only pat his pocket awkwardly.
When Lin Guosheng saw this, he took out his own cigarette from his suit pocket and gave one to Lin Huaile.
"I can get a monthly salary of 8,000 yuan from Tiantian Newspaper, which is an astronomical figure."
"I wonder how much you can get for "Men's Wear"?"
"If the salary is less, the tigress in the family will roar like a lion from the east of the river!"
Lin Guosheng smiled bitterly when he mentioned that person in his family. The entire Tiantian News Group knew that he, Lin Guosheng, married a tigress in his family.
Money is a trivial matter!
Lin Huaile scraped together 200,000 yuan, enough to sustain the magazine for a while.
Furthermore, the minibus and bird shop businesses will also open in a few days. Even if they can't eat a fat man in one bite, they can still bring back some blood.
A salary of 10,000 yuan can still be used!
But he wasn't prepared to do it!
"It seems that Brother Guosheng is ready to come to "Female Clothes" to give in."
"There is a salary, but it is not paid monthly like the daily newspaper industry. Of course, you can still get part of the salary every month."
"The editor-in-chief is the brains of the magazine. I don't need to elaborate on how important it is!"
"So, I decided that the salary of the editor-in-chief of "Men's Wear" will be a dual-track system of options and salary!"
How to get employees to work for you wholeheartedly?
There is only one way, and that is to turn him into a boss.
This set of equity incentives is an incentive plan designed specifically for the Chinese people by the smart people at Goldman Sachs.
This was also the beginning of wolf culture.
Of course, IBM only proposed this corporate management concept in the 1990s.
The fact that the concept has not come out does not delay Lin Huaile's use, but it is also a blow to Lin Guosheng's dimensionality reduction.
"Options?"
Lin Guosheng's interest was suddenly aroused and he couldn't help but ask.
"As the name suggests, the magazine society allocates some equity to you."
"But the realization of these equity interests requires certain conditions, such as sales volume and advertising sales."
"Of course, the equity is not completely given to you. If you want to leave, the magazine society will buy it with cash. If it goes public, it will buy it back at the market price."
"Of course, these business standards will not exceed reality."
Lin Huaile roughly expressed his thoughts and waited for Lin Guosheng's reaction.
Lin Guosheng was stunned by this idea. There had never been such an alternative way of paying wages in Xiangjiang.
Equity is the lifeblood of a company, and there are many joint-stock companies in Xiangjiang. However, the stocks in the hands of shareholders of these large companies were all exchanged for real money.
Lin Guosheng can guarantee that if colleagues in the Economic Weekly knew about this salary distribution method, they would definitely write about it and make it a front-page headline.
“Nice idea!”
"But I hope to be able to sign the contract."
Become a villain first and then a gentleman, only then can cooperation last long.
Lin Guosheng really wanted to set up his own magazine, but he didn't have much money. Although his boss was willing to invest, he also had very stringent additional conditions.
This is why he was excited when he saw the recruitment news.
If the young man in front of him is really willing to act like this, he believes that many people will flock to him.
"I will give 10% of the shares as option rewards, of which 3% will be used as your private reward."
"The remaining seven percent will become job options and be settled at the end of the year."
"Send the accounts to the accounting firm to ensure that there will be no mistakes."
"As for salary, I will give you whatever the outside world gives you."
"I wonder if Brother Sheng is satisfied or not?"
Lin Huaile's words were like pouring cold water on a hot oil pan, causing an immediate chemical reaction.
"Okay, when will I go to work?"
With such generous terms, Lin Guosheng had no reason to refuse and immediately agreed.
Lin Huaile has memories of past lives, but these memories are not omnipotent. Each circle has its own rules.
If you want to quickly integrate into a new industry, there is only one way, and that is to hire a so-called insider.
Lin Guosheng is currently the most suitable candidate.
Lin Huaile did not hesitate, stretched out his hand again, and welcomed with a smile: "Then welcome Editor Lin to join us."
"I wonder what editor Lin thinks about the first issue of "Men's Wear"?".
What’s in the first issue?
Lin Guosheng understood that this was an exam question given to him by his boss. If he passed it, he would have passed the internship period.
"There are no salty and wet magazines in Xiangjiang, but that doesn't mean no one has read them."
"Although magazines such as Playboy, Weekend, and Penthouse are not sold in Hong Kong, it does not mean that no one has read them."
“So, we can learn from the most successful issue of Playboy and recreate it perfectly!”
"To be honest, Marilyn's figure is really fascinating!"
Before coming, Lin Guosheng also did enough homework. The early development of "Playboy" all depended on attracting attention.
What really gave him a foothold was the cover of Monroe's issue, which completely made Playboy a first-class magazine.
Since there is a good road, why not take it again?
This method is tricky, but highly maneuverable.
Lin Huaile didn't expect what Lin Guosheng was talking about at first, but when he heard Marilyn's name, he understood.
This guy wants to invite celebrities to build momentum.
I have to say, this is indeed a good move.
There are not many things in Hong Kong, but there are many little stars. There are a lot of Hong Kong and Asian sisters, and they all pay according to their ranking.
As long as the money is enough, there will be people willing to come out and share the limelight.
You can only get 20,000 to 30,000 yuan to make a movie, and the most popular guy today only gets 50,000 to 60,000 yuan for a movie.
