Chapter 295: Chapter 295 Brother Hao Talks About Comics Chapter 295: Chapter 295 Brother Hao Talks About Comics Listening to the discussions below, Wang Hao felt very satisfied.

He wanted just this effect. “Just wait and I’ll show you,” Brother Hao thought, “what divine-level brainwashing is all about.”

Soon, the entire conference room quieted down. Wang Hao looked at the employees seated before him, took a deep breath, and decided to first turn around their attitudes before discussing anything else.

“I’m not one for idle chatter,” Wang Hao scanned the room, and said, “I noticed some people were resigning. Now, I’ll give everyone ten minutes to think it over, and if you want to resign, you can leave right now! Anyone who’s owed wages, come to me immediately.”

It’s not always effective to talk about other things, but when it comes to money, it often has an unexpected impact!

As expected, once Wang Hao finished speaking, everyone in the room was stunned.

Is there such a good thing? The new chairman takes the stage, and the first thing he does is pay out money?!

This was definitely a very tempting offer, and many employees looked at each other. Soon, a young man stood up, “Chairman Wang, I’m resigning! The company owes me three months’ salary, which is thirteen thousand five hundred in total.”

Wang Hao glanced at him, it was one of those who had asked to resign, and casually asked, “What’s your name?”

“Feng Bo,” the young man replied, “Are you really going to pay the salary?”

“Of course,” Wang Hao looked towards the executives, “Who’s handling the finances? Is there any issue with the amount Feng Bo mentioned?”

The finance executive nodded, “The amount is correct.”

“WeChat,” Wang Hao immediately took out his phone, “scan for payment.”

The overdue salary was quickly transferred. Feng Bo was first stunned, and then cheered loudly, “Hahaha! Thank you, then I’m leaving now!” Saying so, he rushed out of the conference room to start packing up his possessions.

Who cares about whether you are a chairman or not once the money is in hand. Time to leave!

Chief Li, sitting below, was dumbfounded, “Is this guy an idiot? Just arrived and throwing money around like this? Got his brain caught in the door?”

Lin Xiaoyun was also utterly confused. What on earth was her brother thinking?!

It has to be said, offering immediate payment is a big temptation. With the first one, a second and a third followed quickly.

Soon, a total of six people resigned on the spot, ready to leave this unfortunate company.

Once there was no one else standing up, Wang Hao then smiled and said, “Alright, no one else is leaving? Well, now I can formally announce to everyone! The wages owed to all those present can be settled immediately! And–” At this point, he took a deep breath and then loudly said, “Not only that, whoever is owed months of wages, will receive an additional few months’ pay as a bonus-my word is effective once spoken!”

Outside, Feng Bo and the other six people who were happily packing their things, dropped their belongings with a “clatter,” slapping their thighs in regret–Why the hell did I resign? In a blink of an eye, I missed out on twenty thousand!

Crying faint in the bathroom!

While Feng Bo and the others were filled with regret, the employees inside the conference room were all stunned.

What’s going on? Not only are they making up the owed wages, but they’re also doubling it as a bonus!?

“Is it true? Double the amount owed?”

“Holy shit, I was owed four months’ wages! That’s more than thirty thousand!”

“So damn cool! This chairman is so badass!”

The entire conference room erupted into chaos, no one could believe that there was a chairman so generous in this day and age!

At that moment, someone asked from below, “Chairman Wang, is it… really being paid out right now?”

“Send it out now!” Wang Hao chuckled, “You’re owed how much? You’ll get double!”

At that moment, everyone was set abuzz, clamoring to get forward–

“Me! Me! The company owes me four thousand!”

Wang Hao: “Eight thousand, take it.”

“And me, and me, the company owes me five thousand five!”

Wang Hao: “Eleven thousand, take it.”

The entire conference room went wild. The employees asked for money, and Wang Hao doled it out like water, causing chaos for half an hour until everyone was finally settled. In just that short time, he’d spent over five hundred thousand!

When no one else stood up for their pay, Wang Hao slammed his hand on the table, “Alright! That’s all the money handed out, anyone else leaving?”

Now, the excitement of all the employees in the company had been drawn out, and they shouted together, “No more!”

With a genial smile, Wang Hao clapped his hands, and the clamor subsided into silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop!

Having money sure paved the way, completely transforming the previously listless crowd into an energized force, ready for orders!

“Good, that’s more like it!” Wang Hao was extremely pleased with the change in the crowd and declared, “Now then, we’ve got some serious talking to do!”

Wang Hao said this as he surveyed the room, then took a deep breath…

“Bang!” Wang Hao suddenly slammed the comic book he’d snatched earlier onto the lectern!

“Take a look at this! What is this supposed to be?” Wang Hao took a deep breath and then roared, “Is this a detective comic?! It’s romance! Romance! And ‘Super Detective’? You’re drawing super gigolos here! No wonder nobody wants this stuff–I wouldn’t accept it either! What kind of nonsense is this?!”

Wang Hao picked up the comic and started flipping from the beginning: “Look at these character designs! A forty-something-year-old man! Are you kidding me?! Do you even understand your target audience?! Comic readers are teenagers! The protagonist must be young!”

Even though Wang Hao was shouting, the company employees listening suddenly saw the light.

The previously distracted artist, Zhang Zhengyang, suddenly became energized: “I get it! I get it! I kept feeling like something was off with what I was drawing. Yes, yes, yes, it needs to be a young person! Only a young character will work!”

“Work my ass!” Wang Hao bellowed, “It needs to be a child! Only a child inspires anticipation and secrecy! Look at what you’ve drawn. I haven’t even looked at the later parts yet, and just from the beginning, I can tell who the villain is!” Wang Hao pointed at a character on the draft, “Making the bad guy this obvious, are you challenging the readers’ intelligence?! I just randomly flipped through a couple of issues; the ugliest and most lecherous-looking one is the villain! Can’t you vary the character designs a bit?!”

So, Wang Hao hated domestic spy dramas the most–damn it, if you just grab the good-looking ones, you’d be spot-on every time!

“Children! Yes, children!” Zhang Zhengyang’s hair nearly stood on end with excitement, and he felt a tingle all over his body! He rushed out and quickly grabbed a pen and notebook, came back, and started to draw while sitting down.

Wang Hao ranted on, “What are you in such a hurry for?! A good comic book character can’t just be created on a whim, do you understand?! The protagonist has to be different from other children! Different, do you get it?! Make him a high school student! Otherwise, how could a child have such high intelligence?! Although he should be an adult, he becomes a child because he took a miraculous drug!”

Everyone in the conference room was dumbfounded.

The protagonist was a high school student who became a child after taking some amazing, mysterious drug?!

Wow, what a divine concept!

Zhang Zhengyang was confused: “Huh?! A high school student? A child?! I get it!”

With this, he began to draw, and Wang Hao continued to rant: “Look at your work! Where are the protagonist’s relatives and friends?! Nothing but women! The protagonist is like a solitary commander monologuing! He needs a childhood sweetheart! He can’t just solve cases for the sake of solving cases–he needs a love storyline! He turns into a child, but his childhood sweetheart doesn’t know it, that’s the drama!”

Then another artist sitting below was also stunned and hurriedly picked up a pen to start drawing!

Right, right, right–the protagonist needs a childhood sweetheart!

“And then,” Wang Hao continued after taking a sip of water, “as a child, the protagonist must conceal his identity! How to conceal it? Add another character, a private detective who knows the protagonist! Every time there’s a case to solve, this private detective is stumped, then the protagonist solves it and, after knocking out the private detective, speaks the truth through his own mouth! This kind of cycle is the Wang Dao! Otherwise, take a look at what you’ve drawn; just a few episodes in and the protagonist is already famous within the circle! How would he keep investigating undercover?! How would that be exciting?! Where’s the anticipation?!”
