I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 3291: Chapter 3283: Master of Balancing Interests

Li Huaiming’s expression immediately changed.

"Lin Yi, don’t go too far!"

"How am I going too far? Everything I said is the truth. At the end of the month, I’ll give you 300 yuan as a commission," Lin Yi said:

"If something like this happens again, you need to step forward more; otherwise, customers might not buy a car."

"I can’t be bothered with you!" Li Huaiming said, looking displeased:

"But you’d better not overdo it!"

With a cold snort, Li Huaiming turned and left.

Zhou Xin, who was standing to the side, also followed.

The two were in cahoots, so naturally, they had to advance and retreat together.

The people from Group Two were watching the drama unfold, almost bursting into laughter.

"It had to be you; otherwise, no one can handle him."

"You guys are just too kind," Lin Yi said:

"We’re here to work and earn money, not to listen to his nonsense. Why should you pamper him?"

"We understand that too, but no matter what, we’re colleagues, and we see each other all the time. We’re afraid of damaging the peace."

"It’s exactly this kind of thinking that makes you susceptible," Lin Yi said, patting He Li on the shoulder:

"If you’re too kind, people take advantage of you. If a horse is too tame, people ride it. You don’t need a high moral compass, which can save a lot of trouble."

He Li nodded, agreeing that Lin Yi made sense, but she just couldn’t do it herself.

When it was time to clock out, everyone changed out of their clothes and left work one after another.

Lin Yi also drove home.

But Li Huaiming and Zhou Xin didn’t hurry to leave. Instead, they stayed in the meeting room, looking at their own live streaming data.

At the same time, they were also comparing Lin Yi’s streaming data.

"Brother Li, judging by the data, we’re really lagging behind," Zhou Xin said:

"Although they haven’t attracted much traffic, they still managed to sell a car. The results are quite impressive. If they do draw in traffic, more people might visit the store, and things could get problematic."

Li Huaiming looked gloomy and didn’t speak for a long time.

He also knew that his current situation was quite precarious.

He and Zhou Xin had been streaming for over three months already. If they were overtaken, it would be utterly humiliating.

"Brother Li?"

Zhou Xin cautiously asked, "Have you thought of a solution?"

"I have."

Zhou Xin’s eyes lit up, "What solution?"

"Invest in traffic!"

"Invest in traffic?" Zhou Xin asked in surprise:

"Wouldn’t that cost a lot of money?"

"It will cost some money, but it’s the quickest solution," said Li Huaiming:

"As long as we boost our online numbers and get more people to visit the store, we can meet our quotas. All the other flashy stuff is useless."

"But will this really work?" Zhou Xin asked:

"If we do it this time, we’ll have to do it next time too. In the long run, it’s going to be a significant expense."

"As long as we drive traffic early on, we won’t need to spend money later," said Li Huaiming:

"Furthermore, if we deliver results, the management will definitely support us, so don’t worry and go for it."

"There’s no other way now."

"But we also need to make some changes to our streaming style."

Zhou Xin looked at Li Huaiming, "What kind of changes?"

"You should dress up too; don’t stream in your work uniform."

"Huh? Do I need to be like He Li?"

"Not to that extent," said Li Huaiming:

"But we have to admit, steering close to the line like they do does attract some people."

"But I’m embarrassed."

"Just give it a try. Right now, we need to improve our stats; everything else can be addressed later."

"This..."

Zhou Xin hesitated, "I’ll give it a try."

...

After work that day, Lin Yi didn’t head straight home but went to Wang Ying’s place.

Known for being a master juggler of tasks, Lin Yi was unmatched in this regard.

When he arrived at Wang Ying’s house, she was already cooking in the kitchen.

Dressed in a black lace nightgown and nothing underneath, she looked incredibly enchanting.

"Come in quickly."

Seeing Lin Yi at the door, Wang Ying spoke while stir-frying:

"Just one more dish, and we can have dinner."

Looking at the dining table, Lin Yi saw five dishes and a bottle of red wine already prepared.

"It’s just the two of us; isn’t this a bit too much?"

"You eat so much; I’m worried this won’t be enough."

Lin Yi laughed heartily, knowing that if he allowed himself, this would indeed not be a problem for him.

Soon, Wang Ying brought out the last dish, braised prawns, and sat across from Lin Yi.

"Did you see me during today’s livestream? I even sent you a gift."

Although they didn’t meet often, they chatted almost daily except when on tasks.

Wang Ying had a thorough understanding of Lin Yi’s routines.

"I saw," Lin Yi said:

"But next time, don’t spend money like that. It won’t end up in my pocket anyway."

"Oh, it’s just a drop in the bucket. I’m earning hundreds of thousands annually now; I don’t mind at all."

"Wow, Director Wang is truly impressive."

"Don’t tease me. Compared to you, I’m not even a drop in the ocean," Wang Ying said:

"Though you never seem to get tired, taking on all sorts of work without being picky."

"Being idle is just idle. I can’t just sit around and wait for nothing."

"But to leave such a big responsibility at the Lingyun Group to do this seems like sacrificing the big for the small."

"Old Qi is handling things there. With his capability, managing the group is more than enough; me going wouldn’t make a difference," Lin Yi mused:

"Life is just a few decades. We can’t exhaust ourselves."

When he first got the system, Lin Yi felt that doing tasks every day was exhausting. Why couldn’t he just live comfortably as a rich man?

But over the years, he gradually realized he actually enjoyed doing tasks.

It’s easy, and he didn’t even have to use his brain.

There’s no better stress relief than this.

"Three years ago, I couldn’t understand this, but now I can."

"After all, you’re a leader now, Director Wang. If you still couldn’t understand my mindset, that’d be unusual."

"Teasing me again."

Lin Yi smiled, "By the way, how’s Lulu doing?"

"She’s doing well. I just called her yesterday. She’s filming a new project; I hear she’s the second lead."

"That’s really good."

"If it weren’t for you, she couldn’t have reached this level."

"But judging by your expression, you don’t seem too happy."

"Oh, the entertainment industry is so chaotic. I’m worried she might pick up some bad habits."

"As long as I’m around, what are you afraid of?"

"You’re not in the entertainment industry."

"That just means you don’t understand this industry yet," Lin Yi said:

"Only those without backing have to claw their way up and use every trick in the book. Now that I’m supporting her, who’s going to dare give her a hard time? Not to brag, but in Zhong Hai, my word still counts for something."
