That afternoon, Xu Yang received a phone call from Xiao Dongsheng.

“President Xu, there’s something I need to discuss with you,” Xiao Dongsheng said.

“Go ahead,” Xu Yang replied.

“Here’s the situation. Recently, people from other guilds have been trying to poach our streamers. Most of them have refused, but a few seem to be considering leaving. There’s one female streamer named Wang Ting who explicitly requested a twenty percent increase in her commission, or else she’ll resign. How do you think we should handle this?” Xiao Dongsheng asked.

“What do you think?” Xu Yang didn’t say how to handle it but instead asked Xiao Dongsheng for his opinion first.

“I think we must nip this in the bud. We can’t agree to any resignation. We need to make an example out of someone, starting with Wang Ting. We’ll refuse her resignation on the grounds that her contract has not expired and ‘freeze’ her out by not letting her appear anywhere. Eventually, she’ll be rendered useless. Even if she shows up again, she won’t have any popularity left. This will deter any other streamers who might get similar ideas, and other guilds handle their popular streamers who want to switch allegiances in the same way,” Xiao Dongsheng explained his strategy.

In the past, his guild hadn’t handled things this way.

Mostly, because the streamers weren’t that famous.

If someone left, it didn’t make much difference.

But now things were different.

The streamers from Fengcai Guild were all popular.

Those who wanted to leave had at least five million followers each.

Xiao Dongsheng felt that they couldn’t be soft with these people.

Otherwise, if the rest of the streamers followed suit, what would become of them?

It probably wouldn’t be long before all the streamers were gone.

After all, the other guilds were offering much higher commissions.

Xiao Dongsheng’s approach was also based on how other guilds handled similar situations.

“Old Xiao, that tactic might well have a deterring effect, but have you thought about how the other streamers will feel about such measures?” Xu Yang said.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Uh…” Xiao Dongsheng found himself at a loss for words, unable to respond immediately.

“The other streamers will feel like they’re selling themselves by working at Fengcai Guild, that leaving would ruin their careers. That’s not what I want,” Xu Yang said.

“President Xu, then tell me how to handle it,” Xiao Dongsheng asked.

“Anyone who wants to leave is free to do so. Besides paying the contractual penalty, they can leave. I want people who are willing to stay and work at Fengcai Guild. There’s no need to stop those who don’t want to stay,” Xu Yang said.

“President Xu, if we do that, I’m afraid many people will leave, and our losses will be huge,” Xiao Dongsheng said with a wry smile.

“It’s okay. I believe most streamers are sensible. They can figure out which company is better for them. If they really think our company is no good, then they aren’t really with us, and there’s no need to work together,” Xu Yang was quite calm about it.

Xu Yang had anticipated that other guilds would try to poach their streamers and that some might want to resign.

Let those who want to leave, leave. Don’t hold on to them.

He believed that only a portion of people would want to leave.

The departure of those few wouldn’t affect the overall situation.

“Alright, then we’ll do as you say,” Xiao Dongsheng said resignedly.

Since the boss had decided on this course of action, he wasn’t in a position to object.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Perhaps there was additional reasoning behind the boss’s decision, but for now, he couldn’t grasp it.

“I’ll issue a statement in the company group, and then let HR handle it according to the statement,” Xu Yang said.

“Understood,” Xiao Dongsheng replied.

After ending the call, Xu Yang opened the WeChat group for Fengcai Guild and posted a statement.

“Ladies and gentlemen, some of our employees have expressed a desire to resign recently. I know how other guilds handle this kind of situation, and I do not wish to do the same.”

“Although I would very much like for all staff to continue working with us, I won’t stop anyone who really wants to leave. I won’t deliberately make things difficult for anyone. It will be enough to pay the contractual penalty, and we can part on good terms.”

“I can’t promise you the best treatment, but I can assure you that our company is definitely the most free, has the best atmosphere, and offers the best prospects for development.”

“Those of you considering resignation, I hope you think it through. Is the company you’re going to really that much better?”

This statement surprised the company’s streamers.

Being part of the industry, they’d heard countless stories of guilds that used a variety of methods to prevent streamers from resigning, even going so far as to ruin their careers.

They hadn’t expected their boss to be so open-minded, allowing them to resign just by paying the penalty.

This approach actually caused many streamers who had been contemplating resignation to reconsider.

Indeed, it was as Xu Yang said. They needed to think carefully whether they could find another boss and company as good as this one.

Other guilds might offer them a higher commission, but naturally, they would expect more in return.

If they ended up with a bad boss, any future issues could trap them, unable to leave even if they wanted to.

To put it bluntly, if you switch jobs and they don’t give you the promised high commission, you are powerless and have to settle for less.

For the streamers who weren’t considering resignation, it strengthened their sense of belonging to the company.

A boss like this was rare to find.

A company like this was even more scarce.

For the boss to be so open and clear about handling resignations…

To be able to work for such a company, without fear of underhanded tactics from the boss, where hard work is always rewarded.

However, Wang Ting, the streamer who had asked for a twenty percent increase in her commission, scoffed at the statement.

“Hmph, all these sweet words, just because they don’t want to increase my commission?” she sneered.

Wang Ting coldly huffed, took out her phone, and dialed a number.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Soon, the call was answered.

Wang Ting said, “Young Master Chen, I’ve decided to resign. The company isn’t making it difficult for me, I just need to pay the penalty, which is five million. You will need to cover that, and I hope you won’t go back on the fifty percent commission you promised.”

The person on the other end of the phone was Chen Guanglei. He smiled faintly, “No problem. Once you come over, I’ll even give you a bonus of one million, but I need you to do something for me.”

Wang Ting asked, “What is it?”

A one million yuan job likely wasn’t a small matter.

“Let’s have dinner tonight, and we can talk about it in person,” Chen Guanglei said.

“Okay,” Wang Ting agreed.

There was money to be made, of course, she would take it. Besides, Chen Guanglei was the boss; getting to dine with him and build a good relationship was something she was eager for.

After the call, she wrote her resignation letter and submitted it to her manager.

The manager immediately approved it, agreed to the resignation, and directed Wang Ting to HR to complete the formalities.

Wang Ting finished the procedures, and it was almost time to leave work.

She packed up her things, left the company, drove to the restaurant Chen Guanglei had mentioned, and met with him.
