Chapter 474 The Value of Zero Hour

"Director Daquan, this cooperation is of great importance. It should be done slowly and not in a hurry. And what do you mean by tricks? Apple and Penguin also adopted the same strategy and were also rejected. It is not surprising."

"The sincerity you mentioned is 300 billion. Is such a large investment something that can be decided so easily?!"

"Our company's operating profit last year was only 265 billion. You came up and said you wanted 300 billion to buy out the copyrights of ten songs and sign a contract. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

Faced with his sneer and disdain, the other directors immediately became unhappy.

"What's wrong with 300 billion? Sony is Neon's company, and Zero Hour is Neon's piano master. As long as we cooperate and work together, I dare say the value of this contract is at least 3 trillion!"

Director Daquan became angry when he saw that they dared to talk back.

This group of short-sighted and stupid wastes have no idea how valuable zero time is.

Zero Hour's rise is unstoppable.

What's even more frightening is that Ling Shi is different from the kind of singer who becomes famous overnight and then falls in the blink of an eye. He has superb playing skills, miraculous arrangement ability, and unfathomable strength.

In his opinion, such an amazing and talented person is destined to leave a strong mark in this era, and it is absolutely worth spending a lot of money to invest.

He knows piano, so he knows that Master Zero Hour's ten adapted or original piano songs have magic power beyond imagination.

"Is he worth 3 trillion?"

Upon hearing this, the directors present scoffed.

"Director Daquan, you are going too far. I admit that Zero Hour is indeed very valuable, but our company's turnover last year was only 1.3806 billion. He alone can cost as much as two people in our music department with one contract." More than a year’s turnover?”

President Yoshida became angry when he saw that he dared to say so.

If this name really needs to be wiped out, if the Sony music department fails to cooperate with Zero Hour in subsequent contacts, his dismissal will not be enough to atone for his crime.

"Is the value pure turnover? Is that how you calculate it?"

Director Daquan thought he was very accurate and was not afraid of his doubts at all, he said sarcastically.

This guy is truly worthy of being the person who promoted Oga Musashi. They are all the same type of losers, relying on their father's seniority in the company to get to the top and forming cliques.

I have some ability, but not much. I still haven’t realized the seriousness of the problem until now.

"Then tell me, how do you calculate this? 3 trillion, just think of it as a 10-year contract, which is also worth 300 billion a year. How dare you say that."

President Yoshida was not afraid and said mockingly.

He was able to sit in the position of president not only because of his father's peripheral vision, but also because of his ability.

Not to mention that Zero Hour is a pianist who has no actual honors and has not won any awards. He only gave a sold-out recital in a small place like the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan.

Even if he gets the trophy at odd hours, it is impossible for a super-phenomenal pianist who has given dozens or hundreds of concerts to have such value.

"Piano craze, public support, state support, epoch-making arrangements, and phenomenal influence... That's all I can say. You'd better find a way to sign the contract. If you really want to be hired by other companies Sign it and just wait and see."

Seeing that he believed from the bottom of his heart that Zero Hour's value was just that, Director Daquan was a smart man and didn't want to waste any time talking to him.

Total sales? This kind of simple thing is nothing more than a small profit compared to its zero-hour value.

He has already investigated and seen it with his own eyes. The appearance of Master Zero has aroused the enthusiasm of countless people across the country to learn piano.

Ling Shi is known as the God of Piano, and is sought after by countless people, proud of him, and even worshiped like a madman.

Zero Hour's influence is so terrifying that it has become a national-level public figure before it has fully started operations. Sooner or later, the government will stop supporting it.

As long as Sony and Zero Hour are tied together, they will definitely be able to reach a higher level.

"You don't need to tell me, I will find a way to sign it...Director Daquan, there is really no need to pretend to understand."

President Yoshida actually thinks highly of Zero Hour, but seeing his flattering look still made him laugh.

A contract worth 3 trillion. It’s a shame that this fat guy dared to say it. Did he think he was talking about Zimbalu coins? This is Japanese yen!

If this matter spreads, it will definitely make people laugh.

Zero Hour Firm, after temporarily rejecting the contracts with the three major companies, Sony, Apple, and Penguin, does not mean that today's work is over.

Because after the piano recital, there are many businesses and companies looking for cooperation.

In the past week, a lot of project proposals had been accumulated. After Igarashi Runa screened them, those that he thought had good conditions were all given to Kurosawa Hikari to take a look at.

"Kurosawa, do you think I'm not suitable to be a boss?"

Igarashi Runa was sitting on the sofa. She took off her high heels and was wrapped in flesh-colored stockings. Her plump and round legs lay on her side. She looked at Kurosawa Hikaru's side face reading the contract and suddenly felt a little depressed.

She was shocked by what happened today... She originally thought that cooperation with giant companies like Sony, Penguin, and Apple were rare good contracts.

Who would have thought that these three big companies seemed to be full of sincerity and quoted sky-high prices, often worth tens of billions, but in fact they were eating people without spitting out their bones, and had huge plans.

"You are indeed not suitable to be a boss."

Kurosawa Hikaru, who was reading the cooperation plan, glanced sideways at her, thought about it, and then said.

"Eh……"

When Runa Igarashi said such depressing words, she actually wanted him to encourage her. Unexpectedly, he agreed, and she suddenly felt sad.

"You are more suitable to be my wife than to be the boss."

Before she could think further, Kurosawa Hikaru added.

"I'm asking you very seriously."

Hearing this, Igarashi Runa realized that he had dug a hole to wait for her. She was ashamed and annoyed, and rolled her eyes at him angrily.

"I will answer you very seriously."

Kurosawa Hikaru didn't smile, just looked into her eyes.

"..."

Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, Igarashi Runa didn't know how to answer the question.

In fact, she was very happy when she heard this, even though she felt that it was not her turn to marry Kurosawa Hikaru.

After all, Kurosawa currently has four girlfriends, and she is the fourth.

However, she was also a little sad...because if he was serious, then what he just said about her not being suitable to be a boss was also true.

Seeing her dejected and seemingly really sad, Kurosawa Hikaru put down the plan book in his hand and started to move.

"Let me see what the expression is..."

Kurosawa put his feet up on the sofa and lay on her lap as he spoke.

"Ah, what is covering my eyes? The sun and moon are in the sky?"

Resting on her soft and elastic legs, Kurosawa Hikaru couldn't see Igarashi Runa's face and expression, and said in surprise.

"Bad guy."

Seeing him being funny and saying meaningless words, Igarashi Runa was immediately amused and covered his eyes with her hands.

"Do you know why I said you are not suitable to be a boss?"

Hearing that she couldn't hold back her laughter, Kurosawa Hikaru raised his hand and pulled her hands away and asked.

"Why?"

Igarashi Runa was a little shy and always felt embarrassed by this gesture, but she was attracted by his words.

"We have been in business for so long, but you haven't hired any employees, and no one calls you boss. How can you be the boss?"

Kurosawa Hikaru didn't even know how to say good things about her. As a boss, he had to do everything himself. Apart from his partner, there was no one in this firm, and it was deserted.

"How could no one call me boss? I hired eight employees, but they were placed in other places to work. Because your identity is too sensitive, I dare not recruit a large number of people, so the firm currently adopts an outsourcing management strategy, such as the public relations team , accounting team, operations team and the like.”

Igarashi Runa was a little unhappy and glared at him, but she glared at her chest.

After all, this guy was lying on her lap, completely blocked by her fat body.

If Kurosawa hadn't wanted to be a masked artist, the office would have been bustling long ago. After all, when she was a top manager, she had quite a wide network of contacts. It would not be difficult to recruit people if she had money.

It's just that it's easy to recruit people, but it's difficult to keep it secret... At present, the only people who know Zero Hour's identity are the employers who have a clear intention to cooperate and are full of sincerity.

"Outsourcing strategy...you are quite good at being a boss. Why did you ask me what I was doing just now?"

Kurosawa Hikaru, who was pillowing on her lap, only felt that the fragrance was pleasant, but after thinking about it, she didn't understand.

Outsourcing, also known as resource outsourcing, resource outsourcing, and external sourcing, is one of the decisions in business activities.

Enterprises do what they are best at and outsource other tasks to professional organizations that can do these things well. The emphasis is on [promoting one's strengths and avoiding one's weaknesses].

This is a very efficient business model, which can effectively solve the dilemma of insufficient manpower in the organization, and can also save costs and make good use of resources.

Because cooperation between different companies does not have good human resources, the cost of trial and error is very high... because you cannot guarantee that your outsourcing partner is professional enough.

In short, the outsourcing strategy is to recruit the minimum number of core employees, save more money, and utilize the services of professionals in the society.

"Because I didn't understand today's contract... I thought it was a good contract."

Igarashi Runa was shocked by what happened today.

If her artist was not Kurosawa, but an artist who didn't know his stuff... her decisions and opinions would be the artist's decisions.

When she was attracted by the sky-high contract worth more than 10 billion and got carried away, not to mention her losses, the artist's losses were huge.

After all, the artist could have gotten more money than he deserved, but he ended up being harmed by her.

"You have only been the boss for a short time and have little experience. It is normal for you to make misjudgments. But don't worry. Sister Qianhe and I are by your side and will help you solve your problems."

Although he couldn't see his expression because the sun and moon covered his eyes, Kurosawa Hikaru could guess her thoughts.

In fact, he had thought about asking before, how did Ms. Runa become the boss, and how did she manage to find someone for such a long time?

However, now I finally asked the question and found out that she had actually hired employees and entrusted many outsourcing teams, which made her feel relieved.

Because he was quite worried. Ms. Runa was worried that his true identity was too sensitive and should not be exposed, so she did not dare to recruit people. She had to do everything by hand, and sooner or later she would be exhausted.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

Igarashi Runa didn't like to be aggressive. She asked just now because she simply wanted some encouragement. Now that she heard him say this, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

What Kurosawa said was right. Unlike when she was a manager before, she always had to face many problems and troubles alone. Now, she has them by her side.
