Chapter 82 Opinions
There's not much to buy here. He's from Shenzhen, not the countryside, so there's nothing he absolutely needs to buy.
Moreover, the sudden idea that came to Chen Jiang gave him more motivation, so he went downstairs to meet Xiao Ya and they headed to the company together.
When Chen Jiang arrived at the company, Bai Qiu was already waiting in her office. Upon seeing him, she stood up from the sofa, smiled, and greeted him.
"Mr. Chen, what do you think of these ornaments? If there's anything you're not satisfied with, I'll replace them for you."
Chen Jiang waved his hand, sat down in his boss's chair, first looked at the computer on the desk, then glanced around at the vases and other decorative items in the office, as well as the few potted plants on the floor. He thought it looked pretty good and nodded.
"That's fine, let's leave it at that."
Bai Qiu smiled sweetly:
"I'm glad you're satisfied."
"Oh right, I forgot to mention yesterday, do you have your own office?" Chen Jiang suddenly remembered something and pointed to Xiao Ya standing to the side: "Help her find a place to work. I only have a desk and a chair here, I can't let her sit here, can I?"
"Uh..." Bai Qiu turned around and glanced at Xiao Ya: "I forgot about that. Okay, then Miss Jiang can work in my office. I have space there."
"Hmm." Chen Jiang nodded slightly, then looked at Xiaoya: "What do you think?"
Although Xiaoya was indeed a little annoyed with Bai Qiu, she knew who was in charge and naturally wouldn't offend Chen Jiang, so she nodded.
"no problem."
Chen Jiang smiled slightly upon hearing this:
"Actually, it's just to find you a place to stay and rest. You'll mainly be in charge of my personal affairs. Bai Qiu can help out here in Shanghai, so that should be enough."
"By the way, have you made contact with that guy named Karl?"
"Let me take a look..."
Xiaoya took out her phone and glanced at it, and was immediately surprised:
"Huh...the other person just replied to me...asking me to add their contact information so we can chat."
"What a coincidence?"
Chen Jiang was also a little surprised: "That's perfect, why don't you talk to him and ask him to come to the company?"
Xiaoya naturally had no objections, picked up her phone and started typing: "Okay, I'll tell him now."
However, Bai Qiu, who was standing to the side, was somewhat puzzled but didn't want to ask directly. So, after thinking for a moment, she tried to inquire indirectly:
"Mr. Chen, is this your friend? I can go and pick him up for you."
Chen Jiang had no intention of hiding it from her, and he only had an idea and was preparing to ask for other people's opinions.
Regardless of whether Bai Qiu in front of him is a manipulative woman or has ulterior motives, she's one of his own in this kind of situation, and he's unlikely to suffer a loss in this matter.
"They're not friends, just a photographer I met yesterday. They secretly took a picture of me and posted it online, and it unexpectedly went viral."
"I called him over to discuss the photo."
Bai Qiu was somewhat surprised:
"Oh? The photos of you taken without your consent have gone viral?"
"Can I see that video?"
Chen Jiang pointed to his phone on the table:
"Just search it yourself, it's on Douyin (TikTok), the most popular video right now is it."
"Please wait a moment, let me take a look first."
Bai Qiu nodded slightly, took out her phone and started browsing. She easily found the corresponding video, then froze, looking up at Chen Jiang and down at her phone several times in a row, clearly comparing the two!
It has to be said that this was the first time Chen Jiang had ever seen this girl, who always had a smile on her face, show a shocked expression.
Her eyes were wide open, like a silly goose. She had lost her gentle temperament, but she looked much more real.
"No..." Chen Jiang suddenly lost his composure: "Why are you making that face?"
"I...I..."
Realizing she might be losing her composure, Bai Qiu quickly composed herself, took a deep breath to calm herself, and said, "I just didn't expect you to look so good on camera, Mr. Chen..."
"You're so good at talking, aren't you? You're good at being on camera."
"Alright, the fact that this photo was taken was a bit of a coincidence. I wasn't actually that handsome in the photo."
Chen Jiang waved his hand dismissively, not wanting to continue the topic, and instead looked at her and casually asked:
"What do you think I should do about this?"
"What should we do...?"
Upon hearing Chen Jiang's question, Bai Qiu keenly sensed something. After pondering for a moment, she didn't answer but instead asked in return:
"Mr. Chen, are you planning to use this suddenly viral video as a starting point to get involved in the company's investment in short videos?"
"Cough cough cough!!" Chen Jiang quickly coughed twice and waved his hands repeatedly: "Don't talk nonsense... I don't have that intention. What I mean is that I don't know much about things on the internet, but since our company is preparing to focus on this direction, I think we might be able to take advantage of the popularity of this video."
"Hmm..." Bai Qiu nodded in agreement, "Indeed, but this account isn't yours, Mr. Chen, is it?"
"So I had Xiaoya contact this guy and ask him to come over for a talk. If he cooperates, we can give him some compensation to get him to hand over his account..." Chen Jiang paused slightly, "Of course, if he doesn't cooperate, then we'll have the legal department talk to him. Isn't that an invasion of privacy, especially since it's been spread so widely?"
"I don't know much about this, but I can ask the legal department for you." Bai Qiu shook her head, then paused slightly and said, "President Chen, if you want advice, I think you could talk to the president about this and ask for his opinion."
"Oh? You're asking him about something like that?"
Chen Jiang naturally wanted to ask Chen happy for his opinion, since he, being only a dabbler, could not compare to the professionals.
But he's a big CEO, and his company is in its early stages, so of course he's very busy. This video may be popular, but the benefits it can generate shouldn't be enough to entice Chen Xi. If he really wants his help, he'll have to owe him a favor, and he doesn't want to owe anyone a favor.
Bai Qiu smiled:
"Actually, under other circumstances, I wouldn't recommend you go see the CEO, but it just so happens to be this guy..."
Chen Jiang raised an eyebrow, sat up straight, and looked at her:
"How so? Is there anything I don't know?"
Bai Qiu asked:
"Speaking of which, you actually know that the president's investment direction is very clear, right?"
"To be honest, because of my relationship with the president, I know a little about his progress and some of the targets he is preparing to invest in."
"This includes this short video platform under ByteDance. However, we are a new company, while this dy is highly regarded in the investment community. Some large capital firms have long been eyeing this lucrative market, making it difficult for us to get involved. Therefore, he is still hesitant about whether to compete."
"So I think you should try asking him; I think he might know more about the situation than you do."
