Chapter 1399: You Can Leave After You Pay Your Debt

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Previously, he had directly transferred his living expenses into the school cards of the needy students. Now, Pei Qian was thinking that it would not be enough to donate enough money to build a primary school. However, it would not be a problem to provide some resources for some primary schools.

For example, giving each primary school student a bag of milk every day should not be a problem, right?

They could also distribute some necessities like rice, oil, fish, meat, vegetables to the needy students at the end of each semester. That way, more needy families might change their minds and send their children to school.

What’s more, for these necessities, they had to ensure that the child would finish nine years of compulsory education. That was because as long as parents wanted to freeload, they had to ensure that the child would continue to school.

Handong Province was considered a strong economy, and Jingzhou City had been developing very quickly in recent years. However, in many remote villages, there were still shockingly poor families.

Thus, he did not have to worry about not being able to spend money. No matter how much charity he had, it would not be much.

However, Pei Qian had not thought about the other two ways to spend money.

One was what cross-cycle projects should do to burn money as quickly as possible. The other was the ten million yuan that he had converted from his own pocket to a profit margin. Which industry should he invest in with the least impact?

He was just thinking about it when someone knocked on the door.

He looked up and saw Meng Chang.

“Boss Pei, are you looking for me?”

Meng Chang tried hard to get some information from Pei Qian’s face but failed.

Pei Qian was also observing Meng Chang’s expression.

It seemed like… Meng Chang had adjusted his emotions well?

Meng Chang was not particularly depressed even though the commission had disappeared. That was a good thing.

It looked like he had been overthinking. After so many blows and tempering, Meng Chang’s mental strength had become as strong as his. He could withstand even more blows.

However, he still had to change the commission method.

“I asked you to come this time mainly to discuss with you to change the specific model of the commission.”

“This is the new agreement after the changes. Take a look.”

Pei Qian handed over the new agreement that had been prepared previously.

Meng Chang was stunned and reached out to take it.

After flipping through it briefly, his eyes widened in surprise.

“This…”

There were many words in the new agreement, but there were not many changes.

Simply put, it gave Meng Chang a revival armor.

The new agreement stipulated that if Meng Chang’s first publicity plan failed within a month before the 15th of the month and he did not get a commission, he could continue to make the second plan. The second plan was not affected by the previous plan. However, the highest commission would be reduced to 100,000 yuan.

Of course, if the first publicity plan did not fail, it would be the same as before. The highest commission at the end of the month would be 200,000 yuan.

Take the situation this month for example. Meng Chang had originally wanted to make ‘Successor’, but its popularity had exploded.

According to the original agreement, no matter what he did next half a month, the outcome would be the same. That was because ‘Successor’ was too popular. No matter what he did for the next project, it was impossible to reverse the entire review. Naturally, he would not be able to get any commission.

However, according to the new agreement, it did not matter if ‘Successor’ became popular. A new publicity plan could be made in the second half of the month.

As long as the plan this time did not have any effect or popularity, he could still get a commission. However, the highest limit for the commission had been reduced to 100,000 yuan.

Pei Qian’s consideration was that creating this “disappearing twice in a row” was equivalent to giving Meng Chang an additional life. On one hand, it could save Meng Chang from being so miserable that he would not be able to get a single cent at the end of the month. On the other hand, it could also be considered making the best use of his resources.

According to the original agreement, Meng Chang would be lying at home like a corpse after the publicity of ‘Successor’ failed. He would have nothing to do for the next half a month. This was definitely a huge loss to Meng Chang and Pei Qian.

On the other hand, Meng Chang looked at the agreement as his brain worked quickly, thinking about Boss Pei’s intentions.

“This new agreement will undoubtedly be more advantageous for me to get a commission.”

“The upper limit has not changed, but the lower limit has greatly increased.”

“But what’s the meaning of this? Could it be that Boss Pei thinks that it’s too difficult for me to get the commission, so he reduced the difficulty for me?”

“It can’t be.

“The ‘Successor’ project might not have gotten a commission, but I’ve completely maximized the Pei family’s publicity method with one move. It’s impossible for Boss Pei not to notice, right?”

“It’s not difficult for me to get a commission now. Why did you reduce the difficulty for me?”

“Yes, there must be another reason!”

Meng Chang began to think.

“Previously, if a publicity project failed at the beginning of the month, I would be slacking this month. According to the new agreement, if the plan at the beginning of the month fails, I can create another plan in the middle of the month.”

“Is this hinting to me that I should take on more responsibilities now?”

“Combined with the fact that he gave me the power to distribute the publicity funds, Boss Pei’s attitude is very clear!”

Meng Chang understood. This meant that Boss Pei thought more highly of him!

In the past, Meng Chang had not grasped the Pei family’s publicity method very well. Thus, Boss Pei only gave him one project a month.

After all, he had limited abilities. It would be good enough if he could make a good project.

Even if he failed a long time ago, Boss Pei would not assign him new projects. That should be to give him time to learn and reflect.

However, Boss Pei saw that Meng Chang had improved significantly. He had the energy to work on two projects in a month. Thus, he changed the contents of the agreement so that he could work more!

Meng Chang was not alone. He was now the person-in-charge of the advertising and marketing department even though he had more work to do.

He only needed to think of ideas. With his subordinates to execute him, this bit of work would not tire him out.

What’s more, this way, Meng Chang’s use of the Pei family’s publicity method would not be so rigid.

Previously, he had to make sure that the popularity would not explode before the end of the month and would only explode next month.

However, plans often could not keep up with changes. Sometimes, they had to explode at the end of the month, causing the commission to be cut in half.

What if he had to become popular in the middle of the month for various reasons? Wouldn’t the commission be gone?

Meng Chang might not care about this commission now but it was obvious that Boss Pei cared about it. Boss Pei did not want to see him working for nothing.

Thus, with this new agreement, Meng Chang could more freely choose the time to explode in popularity. It would no longer be a complete conflict between getting commission and generating popularity. He could try to take care of both.

All in all, this was Boss Pei’s reward for Meng Chang learning the Pei family’s publicity method.

The gameplay had been upgraded!

At that thought, Meng Chang was very happy and handed the agreement back. “Alright, Boss Pei. Of course, I completely agree!”

Pei Qian reached out to take the agreement. He nodded silently seeing Meng Chang’s attitude.

Yes, that’s right. I think you’ll definitely agree happily.

That was because he had no reason to reject!

“Yes, there’s nothing else. Go back and continue preparing the plan for the next half a month.”

“Of course, if you feel tired and don’t want commission or rest for the next half a month, you can also not do it. This is not a mandatory requirement.”

Meng Chang quickly nodded. “Alright, Boss Pei. I understand.”

He had to say that Boss Pei knew how to understand his subordinates.

Meng Chang was just about to leave when he suddenly realized that he had a question to ask. He stopped.

“Oh… Boss Pei, I have a question.”

Pei Qian looked at him. “Just say it.”

Meng Chang hesitated for a moment before saying, “Suppose. I mean if I can stay in Tengda and continue being the person-in-charge of the advertising and marketing department after paying my debt one day?”

Pei Qian was stunned and confused.

What did Meng Chang mean? Why was he asking such a question?

Could Tengda be a good place for you? You want to stay so badly?

Oh, I understand. In order to earn more commission, right?

Obviously, a commission of 200,000 yuan a month was quite generous to Meng Chang.

Until now, Meng Chang had already tasted the sweetness of the commission.

He would be able to get a high commission by casually doing reverse publicity plans in Tengda. He would also be especially free during working hours. He could come and go as he pleased. Where could he find such a good job?

Therefore, Meng Chang must have realized how good Tengda was and was a little forgetful.

His previous bravado had probably been wiped out. He only wanted to retire in Tengda.

The reason why he asked this was mainly because he was afraid that he would leave once he obtained enough commission to pay his debt. At that time, he would not be able to find such an easy and satisfying job.

That was why he wanted to stay and easily earn commission after paying his debt.

After some consideration, Pei Qian said, “If you’re done paying your debt, there’s no need for you to stay in Tengda.”

Saying that it was unnecessary was actually ‘don’t stay in Tengda’.

Pei Qian’s words had two layers of meaning.

The first layer was that Meng Chang was so capable. Since he had already paid off his debt, he had to go out and make a comeback. Even if he felt like he wanted to slack for now, a person like him would definitely think about something once he finished paying off his debt. At that time, his thoughts would probably change.

Therefore, I will definitely not keep you because of your character.

The second layer was that if Meng Chang really finished paying his debt, Tengda would not need him.

Why?

That was because once Meng Chang obtained so much commission, it meant that Tengda had already done many failed projects and burned a lot of publicity funds. At that time, Pei Qian would have already achieved his goal and incurred losses to become a tycoon!

Then, Pei Qian would have financial freedom and retire.

In other words, Pei Qian did not have to think about how to incur losses anymore. Tengda would continue to develop normally.

What was the point of Meng Chang then?

Therefore, the day Meng Chang finished paying his debt was basically the day he and Tengda parted ways. That was because he and Tengda would no longer need each other.

Meng Chang could not help but be shocked. Boss Pei’s attitude was obviously very clear: Leave after paying your debt!
