"This idea is excellent, and I fully support it. If you have any other ideas, you can tell me at any time. This game forum can begin development once we have sufficient staff."
Lin Hao strongly supported Li Xueling's idea. For a company to develop and grow, it can rely on the founder at first, but for long-term development, relying on one person is impossible. Lin Hao's memories from his previous life will eventually run out, and he doesn't want the company's people to be dependent.
However, it was still early to consider these things. After receiving Lin Hao's instructions, Li Xueling went out to work. He was now full of motivation.
Lin Hao sat in his office chair, looking at the view outside the floor-to-ceiling window, contemplating things. The current progress was still too slow. Everything had to start from scratch, and the newly recruited people couldn't get up to speed immediately.
While Lin Hao was still thinking, Shen Yuxuan walked in. Seeing Lin Hao deep in thought, it was the first time she had seen him like this. She slowly walked behind him and began to massage him.
During the time since returning to China, although she had basically stayed by Lin Hao's side, she had specifically sought out hotel masseuses to learn some massage techniques. Although her skills were not great yet, they at least looked decent.
Feeling Shen Yuxuan's gentle massage, Lin Hao pulled her into his arms and placed her on his lap.
"We're still at the company," Shen Yuxuan exclaimed softly, blushing, and said with her head down.
Lin Hao's hand stroked the stockings on Shen Yuxuan's long legs, saying, "There's no one here."
"Hmph, even if there's no one, it's not okay," Shen Yuxuan snorted and pushed Lin Hao away. She didn't want rumors spreading about her at the company.
"Alright, go help me call Yang Qian'er in," Lin Hao said with a smile.
Hearing Lin Hao's words, Shen Yuxuan raised an eyebrow. What did he mean? As soon as she refused, he wanted to call another woman in?
Seeing Shen Yuxuan's expression, Lin Hao knew she had misunderstood.
"What are you thinking? It's about work."
Hearing Lin Hao say this, Shen Yuxuan finally relaxed, turned around, and went out to call Yang Qian'er.
"Boss, you're looking for me?" Yang Qian'er walked into the office and asked Lin Hao.
"The company's current progress is too slow. Time waits for no one. Other departments can take their time, but the Game Department cannot. Contact the larger headhunting agencies in China and prepare to poach people. Shanda, NetEase, Tencent, and other companies' Game Departments are our targets. Whether they are technical research and development personnel, planners, promoters, operators, etc., as long as they meet our requirements, we will pay heavily to poach them. If we can poach an entire team, the commission will be doubled."
"Boss, won't that cost a lot of money?" Hearing Lin Hao's words, Yang Qian'er was slightly surprised.
"Don't be afraid to spend money. We need to think about how to spend money now. Time is the most important thing. If money can solve it, then use money to solve it. Talent can be cultivated slowly in the future, but time waits for no one."
This was what Lin Hao had just thought of in the office. It was already July, and there wasn't much time left until 2003. Time waits for no one, so they had to speed up. Moreover, he was going abroad in September, so he would have even less time.
Game development requires people and time. The game forum also requires people and time. Lin Hao was also thinking of developing other software. Now was the best time; if they didn't do it now, it would be too late. Therefore, they had to poach people.
"Boss, I know what to do. I'll contact the major headhunting companies now." Although Yang Qian'er didn't know why Lin Hao was in such a hurry, she just needed to follow his instructions.
Over the next few days, Li Xueling led people to work on the secondary development of the game, while Yang Qian'er was busy contacting headhunting companies and poaching people everywhere. Lin Hao, the Boss, suddenly found himself idle.
"Yuxuan, help me find a design company for my Siheyuan (Courtyard House). I plan to renovate the damaged parts and install modern living facilities."
Now that he was idle, Lin Hao remembered the Siheyuan (Courtyard House). He had bought it, so he couldn't just leave it there. After renovating it, he could move in later.
"Okay, Boss." Hearing Lin Hao's words, Shen Yuxuan happily agreed. The scenery of the Siheyuan (Courtyard House) was very good, and she also wanted to see what it looked like after renovation. Lin Hao had promised to let her choose a room.
Shen Yuxuan was very fast. She said she had found one in the afternoon for something he had mentioned in the morning.
Hearing Shen Yuxuan's words, Lin Hao was a little surprised. This was too fast. His requirements were not low. Could it be that she just found one casually?
Shen Yuxuan saw Lin Hao's doubts and said with a smile.
"This isn't difficult. I directly found the most famous design company in Beijing. I checked their past design achievements, and they have experience in Siheyuan (Courtyard House) renovation, so I contacted them. They will come to the company soon, and you can discuss any requirements face-to-face."
Hearing Shen Yuxuan's words, Lin Hao finally relaxed. Shen Yuxuan, after all, didn't have much social experience, so her idea of directly finding the largest design company in Beijing was correct. When you don't understand or are unclear about something, finding the most famous one is always right. Although there might be cases where the reputation doesn't match, it's better than searching aimlessly like a headless fly.
Two people from the design company arrived, a man and a woman, both not very old. As the two came out of the elevator, they saw the blue sky and white clouds, the boundless sea, and the four large characters of Langchao Technology, which gave people a sense of grandeur.
The two Misses at the front desk had also just started working not long ago. Seeing two unfamiliar people walking over, they immediately smiled and asked them questions. After learning that they had an appointment with Lin Hao, they called Shen Yuxuan, the secretary, to confirm.
Soon, Shen Yuxuan came out from inside the company and welcomed the two in.
Looking at the luxurious decoration inside the company and the busy scene, especially everyone having a computer, the slight sense of superiority they had before vanished. As a design company, their computer allocation was already high, but they couldn't achieve one computer per person.
Lin Hao looked at the two without any intention of belittling them. Young people have free-flowing thoughts, which allows inspiration to continuously burst forth.
It's just that his was a Siheyuan (Courtyard House), and that house had a certain historical age; it was not a modern building. To renovate it according to its original state, one needed a certain historical foundation.
Lin Hao was observing the two, and the two on the opposite side were also observing Lin Hao. Before they came, they thought this client would be a middle-aged person or someone older, as young people don't particularly like Siheyuan (Courtyard House)s. Only older people who are nostalgic would like them. The Siheyuan (Courtyard House) designs their design company had taken on before were all for older people.
They didn't expect Lin Hao to be so young when they met.
"This is our Boss, Lin Hao. He is the one who wants to renovate the Siheyuan (Courtyard House). Boss, these are the people from the design company."
