Liang Mengsong had a very complicated mood during this meal at the Loongson cafeteria.
On the one hand, Qiu Ciyun's enthusiasm and Liu Yutong's display of financial resources really showed him a platform that was completely different from TSMC, a platform full of vitality and ambition.
When Qiu Ciyun talked with him about the technical route, the light in his eyes was something he hadn't seen in some senior executives of TSMC for a long time.
He thought that working with such people should be a rather enjoyable and passionate thing.
On the other hand, the strange remarks from President Qiu and Director Liu, hinting that once he came, he wouldn't be able to leave, made him feel a bit uneasy.
He even felt that he was not here for an inspection, but rather like a hostage being detained.
After the meal.
Liu Yutong noticed that Liang Mengsong needed time to have a more in - depth exchange with Qiu Ciyun, so she arranged for President Qiu to accompany Engineer Liang to visit the partially debugged production lines and the R & D center.
"Engineer Liang, in terms of technology, President Qiu is an expert. You can have a slow chat. If you have any requirements, you can come to me directly."
"President Qiu, I'm leaving Engineer Liang in your care. Treat him well and make sure Engineer Liang feels at home at Loongson."
Qiu Ciyun understood what she meant: "Don't worry, Chairman. Once Engineer Liang is here, he's one of us. I'll definitely make him feel welcome and let him deeply experience the cohesion of our Loongson family!"
As he said that, he gave Liang Mengsong a hard pat on the shoulder. This pat made Engineer Liang stagger, and the smile on his face became a bit stiff.
Then Liu Yutong turned to Zeng Jin: "President Zeng, shall we go somewhere else to talk?"
"Couldn't be better!" Zeng Jin nodded quickly.
The two left the cafeteria and went to the office of the Loongson chairman.
Liu Yutong had only been to this office a few times since it was renovated.
Su Mansu brewed tea for them and then retreated, gently closing the door.
"Director Liu, this trip has really been worthwhile for me," Zeng Jin said first, still in a respectful tone. "Loongson's grandeur and strength far exceed my imagination. Especially the execution ability of the people under your command is really remarkable!"
He thought of the security guards at the entrance. Even the security guards under her dared to confront leaders and the media. This showed that the Wanlong Association really had the confidence.
It was also enough to show how powerful the Wanlong Association was on the Chinese mainland. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, how could any security guards dare to confront leaders like this?
Liu Yutong smiled faintly and didn't comment: "For an enterprise to develop and become a world - class one, the prerequisite is to ensure that the working environment of employees is not disturbed by irrelevant people. Only in this way can everyone focus on their work without distractions."
Look! Look! This is what a person with strength and confidence sounds like! The way she talks is different!
Leaders became irrelevant people in her words.
But Zeng Jin deeply agreed with her words: "What Director Liu said really makes me feel ashamed. I've really witnessed your way of running the enterprise today, which is really worth learning from for people like me!"
Liu Yutong didn't want to engage in mutual flattery, so she got straight to the point: "President Zeng came here in such a hurry. You want to talk about cooperation, right? Tell me, which sector does your Zeng family want to enter and what are your ideas?"
Zeng Jin sat up straight and said seriously: "You're perceptive, Director Liu. I really came here this time to hear your opinion first.
"First, it's about our Zeng family's investment direction on the Chinese mainland. In addition to cooperating with your chip talent introduction plan, we also hope to catch the fast - moving train of the mainland's economic development. Our Zeng family is mainly involved in trade, real estate, and some cultural and entertainment industries in Taiwan. This time, I'm primarily considering the entertainment sector. I have a newly - established brokerage company under my name, which has signed some artists.
"These artists want to develop on the Chinese mainland. But as you know, there are a lot of twists and turns in the entertainment circle, and the water is very deep. Especially for young artists, without some backing, they are easily bullied, and things like unspoken rules are very common."
He paused for a moment and continued: "I heard that in the early days, many artists in Hong Kong relied on gangster backgrounds to gain a foothold and become famous. So when they come to the Chinese mainland to develop this time, they want to ask Director Liu to... take care of them a bit."
He said this to test the real strength of the Wanlong Association, such as how much influence it really had and whether it could really protect his people.
In his opinion, having a "dark" background in this industry was actually a good thing. The "darker" it was, the more it would make people afraid, and the artists would suffer less grievances and be more likely to get resources.
Liu Yutong also had a general understanding of some inside stories in the entertainment circle. It could be said that the entertainment circle was the industry with the most strict seniority - based hierarchy.
Moreover, the entertainment circle was also an industry that capital liked to get involved in these days, so there were bound to be all kinds of interest disputes and even dirty deeds.
For example, the media company under the control of her company currently had the singer Xue Qian as its star attraction.
Now, with the resource support of the Wanlonghui Group, such as endorsements for its products, Weibo endorsements, and group - buying website endorsements, Xue Qian's popularity and commercial value have far exceeded those of the past. He has firmly entered the ranks of first - tier singers.
Even so, in some occasions, Xue Qian still inevitably encounters some intentional or unintentional difficulties.
As for those unknown new artists, in many cases, they are even forced to socialize and accompany guests in drinking, and humble themselves to beg others.
It is quite normal for Zeng Jin to have such concerns.
This is mainly because most of the artists under his management are not well - known. Nowadays, the entertainment circle in Taiwan Province is much more competitive than before. Those with opportunities and resources have all flocked to the Chinese mainland.
Of course, the most important purpose for Zeng Jin to use an entertainment company to break into the mainland market is to test the real strength of the Wanlonghui Group.
Because this industry is most likely to attract some troubles. If you can easily solve them, your strength must be no less. If you can't, it's estimated that other industries of the Zeng family will also have a hard time entering the mainland.
I have to say that this guy is really shrewd!
Liu Yutong took a sip of tea and then slowly stated her attitude: "Mr. Zeng, the Wanlonghui Group is a regular corporate group, and this will never change."
"As for what you're worried about, there's no need to worry at all."
"The Wanlonghui is a regular company and group, but it doesn't mean we're easy to bully. As long as it's someone we protect, no one dares to lay a finger on them. As for our strength, you'll soon see it with your own eyes."
"The artists under your management want to enter the mainland market. They can just cooperate with my industries. There is a video website called [Longkan Vision] under the Wanlonghui Group. It is currently competing with platforms like Doudou, Kuku, and Leshi and is in urgent need of high - quality artist resources.
There is also the Weibo platform under the group, which is currently the largest social promotion channel in the country. Your artists can first join Weibo, and I'll have people give you enough traffic support.
In addition, one of my media companies is investing in self - produced online dramas, and your artists can participate in them on a priority basis.
Just the internal resources I've mentioned above are enough to give your company's artists sufficient exposure. This is the first cooperation gift I'm giving you."
After hearing this, Zeng Jin was shocked. He just wanted to test the strength of the Wanlonghui Group, but he didn't expect to be almost overwhelmed by the entertainment resources in Liu Yutong's hands.
Originally, he thought that the main businesses of the Wanlonghui Group were real estate and the like, because these industries are very suitable for companies similar to gangs.
However, he didn't expect that the Wanlonghui Group was playing at such a high - end level. On one hand, it was involved in chips, and on the other hand, in the Internet and entertainment industries, and all of them were booming.
What a blow it was to him, a former gangster!
He also uses Weibo. Weibo is indeed the leader in the social media sector on the mainland. It has top - notch users and traffic. In particular, it is said that its user scale has exceeded 100 million, which is extremely exaggerated.
As for why he uses Weibo, it's actually because he's addicted to the game of "Stealing Vegetables".
This little game seems to be addictive. He sets so many alarms every day for fear that someone will steal his vegetables.
Now that he hears that Weibo also belongs to Liu Yutong, he really wants to ask if she can give him some rare seeds.
Of course, he also knows that Liu Yutong is so generous and offers so many resources right from the start mainly because he has brought a talent that the other side really wants.
If the other side is so generous with just one talent, will they offer even more resources if he brings more talents in the future?
The more Zeng Jin thought about it, the more excited he became. He really didn't expect that a Liang Mengsong could make Liu Yutong attach so much importance. If he could package and bring over all the talents from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company...
Hey, wait a minute. Doesn't it feel a bit like being a human trafficker?
However, these are not important. The most important thing is to successfully break into the mainland market and establish a foothold to make money.
Thinking of this, Zeng Jin excitedly slapped the table, stood up, and reached out his hand: "Thank you, Director Liu, for your care."
As he said this, he looked at a calligraphy hanging behind Liu Yutong that read, "Talent is the most precious asset."
Director Liu is really a person who practices what she preaches and is truly extraordinary!
Liu Yutong also stood up and shook hands with him: "You're welcome, Mr. Zeng. This is a cooperation, and cooperation should naturally achieve mutual benefit and win - win results."
Zeng Jin: "What you said really hits the nail on the head, Director Liu. You're absolutely right. Cooperation is all about win - win!"
"To be honest, I've brought detailed information about several artists this time. I'd like you to take a look..."
Just as he was speaking, there was a gentle knock on the office door.
"Come in."
Su Mansu pushed the door open and quickly walked to Liu Yutong's side. She leaned over and whispered the latest news in her ear, which happened to be about their group - controlled video website.
"Boss, President Lin is in some trouble. He's being jointly besieged by several competitors."
After hearing this, Liu Yutong just nodded. There was no particular expression on her face. She only said, "I got it. Arrange a car to go back to Mingzhu City."
