320 There’s Risk In Jumping Ship, We Need To Think Of A Way
Under the influence of the wine, Benson’s words were inarticulate and chaotic. He said it again and again, as if he would never finish. Hui Xin had been trying to calm him down.
Taking advantage of this time, Yang Tianzhen said to Luo Feng, “Actually, it’s because this girl’s family is in difficulties, but the company keeps hanging on to her. Benson wanted to help her, so he found me and hoped to arrange something for her to do.”
These two sentences summarized Benson’s request again.
Luo Feng had long known about this, but he still proposed to see Benson to hear the opinions of Morris’ employees on the company.
“I understand what you’re saying.” Luo Feng raised his glass and gently touched Benson’s glass.
Benson, who was still chattering, seemed to have his volume button turned off. He downed another glass of alcohol as if he had found a confidant.
Luo Feng said, “It’s just a part-time job. We can provide it, but there are some things I have to say first.”
Benson and Hui Xin thought that there was a prerequisite and did not know if they could afford it. The two of them looked at Luo Feng uneasily.
Luo Feng continued, “Considering that Miss Hui Xin still has a contract, she definitely can’t take on a job that shows her face. She can do odd jobs behind the scenes, but her salary will definitely not be high.”
“I think Miss Hui Xin’s appearance is not bad, especially her big eyes, which gives people a feeling that she has a lot of story to tell. If she becomes an internet celebrity streamer, she will definitely earn more.”
Then, Luo Feng gave Tang Jin a look. Speaking of treatment, it was not very convincing for the boss to say it. The effect would be completely different if it was mentioned by an employee.
Tang Jin immediately received the signal. “I’m a part-time streamer. My main job every day is to cooperate with Sister Xiao Chun to film videos and eat her food. I have a fixed salary every month and can also receive a share of the profits from the videos.”
“Moreover, our company’s benefits are very good. If the video we film negatively affects our image, the boss will give us an additional mental compensation subsidy. How much was it again?”
Xiao Chun immediately replied, “20,000 yuan.”
“Really?” Hui Xin stood up excitedly.
She did not dare to hope for a 20,000 yuan mental compensation subsidy. She only hoped to find a part-time job with a fixed salary to help her survive this period.
Luo Feng continued, “Of course. I originally felt that a part-time job like Tang Jin’s was more suitable for you, but… you still have the contract.”
“…Indeed.” The light in Hui Xin’s eyes immediately dimmed.
The reason why it was so difficult for her to leave Morris was partly because she still had a trace of hope, and partly because she really could not afford to lose the contract she had signed with the company.
Now that she had encountered such a good job, she could not go.
“Xiao Chun, how did you terminate the contract at that time?” Hui Xin could not wait to ask Xiao Chun for her experience.
Xiao Chun pointed at Luo Feng and said, “Boss gave me the money.”
Yang Tianzhen also said, “The boss also bought the studio.”
“No way!” Hui Xin and Benson’s voices were out of tune. They could not believe that Luo Feng was so generous. “Is there a rule on when to repay such a huge sum of money?”
“The boss said that it’s fine to give him the money after I earn it.” Xiao Chun hated that she did not bring the contract with Luo Feng. “These are all written on the contract.”
“So good, so good!” Hui Xin and Benson doubted their lives at the same time.
Forget about Hui Xin. She still did not know the rules of this industry. However, Benson was different.
After working in this industry for many years, his conscience was almost gone. Everyone was mercenary and only wanted to expand their interests to the greatest extent.
A boss like Luo Feng could simply be called a living Bodhisattva! Spending money to save people from hardship!
“Our company does have such a preferential policy. It’s fine as long as you earn money and return it,” Luo Feng said calmly.
Actually, he did not want to take back the money he had given away because he had taken a cash return. However, it would seem strange if he did not add that sentence to the contract.
Even the world’s richest man would not spend money everywhere for no reason after all.
Luo Feng’s current role was a businessman, so he tried his best to do things that were compatible with his character.
What he needed at this moment was to wait.
He waited for Hui Xin and Benson to see if they would want his help.
“Boss Luo!” Benson suddenly stood up, his eyes extremely clear. He pulled Hui Xin up. “Please help her! Morris is really not worth staying for!”
It had finally arrived!
Luo Feng smiled and asked the two of them, “Before that, I want to ask a question. Why do you want to help her?”
This question was a little ambiguous.
Hui Xin’s cheeks could not help but turn red. Her eyes dodged to the side and she lowered her head shyly.
Benson acted like he let go of Hui Xin’s arm as if he was touching it and raised his hands to show his innocence. “I just feel that she’s a little like me when I was young. My family’s conditions aren’t too good either…”
Just as Benson had said, his family’s situation was not very optimistic. However, Benson’s life finally improved a little by working hard and repairing his leaking home bit by bit.
However, Hui Xin was still trapped in the mud without knowing it. Moreover, she would definitely sink deeper and deeper until she died.
Benson did not want someone with a dream and the hopes of the entire family to become a sacrifice just like that, so he risked his face to help Hui Xin find a way out.
Luo Feng nodded. “Of course I can help, but Hui Xin, your agreement might not be as easy to resolve as Xiao Chun’s.”
“Why?” Hui Xin was very puzzled.
She felt that she was not so outstanding that two companies were competing for her.
Since she could not create value for Morris and a new company was willing to take over, and she could pay the breach of contract fees, why would they not let her go?
Luo Feng sighed and told her about helping Xiao Chun terminate her contract and buying Yang Tianzhen’s studio.
“At that time, Old Yang had been helping Xiao Chun, Morris was willing to take the termination fee because he was adamant about it,” Luo Feng explained. “However, in your current situation, there’s no one who can help you. Moreover, if you successfully terminate the contract and succeed with us, it will shake the hearts of the other trainees.”
Any company with some brains would not allow anyone to do this.
Therefore, even if Hui Xin could not create new value, they would not let her go. They would continue to stall until a new batch of trainees entered the company.
“How can it be like this!” Hui Xin felt very aggrieved.
Luo Feng also pitied Hui Xin’s encounter.
He had once witnessed Xiao Chun’s helplessness when she was urged to breach the contract. This was also one of the reasons why he was willing to accept Hui Xin.
Ai Tingya, that soft-hearted silly girl, would also definitely help them unconditionally.
Everyone at the dining table fell silent.
Xiao Chun, who felt the same way, walked to Hui Xin’s side and hugged her to comfort her softly. “It’s okay. There will definitely be a way. Let’s think together!”
“I have an idea,” Luo Feng said at the right time. “It’s just a little time-consuming.”
