Gong Qishui thought he was just talking about his apprentice, but he never expected that Tian Shao would ask him to leave with his team. He knew his own worth. If he left Shaohua Company, other comic companies would not want him.
Gong Qishui said: "Boss, I know A Fei made a mistake, but he is my apprentice, and he also promised that he would change."
Tian Shao looked at him and said with a cold face: "This is a company, not a gang. As a master, you have to protect your apprentices, so go home and protect them. These few female employees did not make a big fuss.
If it gets bigger, our Shaohua Company will be discredited."
She hates workplace harassment the most, regardless of gender. She couldn't do anything about it before, but now that the company is hers, it's impossible to keep these bad apples around.
Gong Qishui tried to intercede: "Boss, Ah Fei is at fault. Manager Xing has fired him. Leopard only occasionally gambled and did not indulge in it. He is dedicated to his work and Xu Jin is very talented in comics. He has recently
I was inspired to draw a comic. The story is good and the drawing is good. If it is published, I will definitely make money."
Tian Shao shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter if I vent my anger, or if I cross the river and burn the bridge, I won't keep any of your six apprentices anymore. This kid Gong Zheng has a good heart and can stay."
When Xiang Fei harassed the female staff, several of Gong Qishui's apprentices ignored him. Only Gong Zheng intervened to stop him and even moved his hands. It was also because of him watching that Xiang Fei was just a fool and did not dare to take any further action.
.
Seeing Tian Shao's indifferent expression, Gong Qishui felt cold and said, "Boss, can't you really be accommodating?"
Tian Shao shook his head and said: "If it's just a small mistake, I can punish them, but they have crossed my bottom line. Editor-in-chief Gong, I would also like to advise you here, leave the company and don't care about them anymore, otherwise you will be kicked out sooner or later.
Implicated."
They are all in their twenties and thirties. No matter what they do, they will get nothing but make them look bad. Tian Shao didn't feel anything in the past, but the harassment incident made her understand that these people are too gangster.
Gong Qishui knew that his departure was a foregone conclusion, but he still wanted to fight for Xu Jin: "Boss, the comics created by Xu Jin are really good. If you also fire him, it will be a big loss to the company."
Tian Shao has so many stories in his mind that he is really not afraid of this loss: "I have been thinking about a new book recently, and I estimate that it will be published in two or three months."
Since she suspected that Xu Jin was a commercial agent sent by another company, she naturally didn't know how to use it. If she really had excellent works, she could get ahead in other comics newspapers.
Gong Qishui thought about the comics she had created and suddenly fell silent.
Tian Shao compensated Gong Qishui for one year's salary. Xiang Fei was fired without a cent, and the other three apprentices all received three months' salary. The two newly recruited men did not receive a cent. However, Zhang Bao had borrowed half a year's salary before, so this
After the compensation is deducted, the company still has to pay back two months' salary. In the end, Gong Qishui paid for this money.
An hour later, Gong Qishui left with his disciples.
Tian Shao called Gong Zheng in and asked: "I asked your father to leave, do you have any thoughts in your heart?"
Gong Zheng shook his head and said: "If I knew about coming to Hong Kong, I would beg you to let him leave the company."
Tian Shao was quite surprised.
Gong Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Boss, you may not know that Zhang Bao lost money when buying horses last month and borrowed more than 10,000 yuan from the finance company. His salary plus bonus is less than 2,000 yuan a month, and he is usually lavish.
There is no balance at all. When the money borrowed by the finance company matures, he will be unable to repay it."
Feng Yi did not find out that Zhang Bao borrowed loan sharks, but it was normal that the time was too short and he did not find out.
Tian Shao understood: "What do you mean, your father will help him pay it back then?"
A flash of anger flashed in Gong Zheng's eyes: "My dad values the relationship between brothers and masters and apprentices more important than himself. Back then, he offended the gang brother by standing up for his friends, and our family fell into the slums."
Before offending the gang brother, the family, although not very wealthy, lived in a clean house and could often eat fish, shrimp or meat. But after offending the gang brother, their family's conditions plummeted. Not only did they move to another
The slums are dirty and messy, and the food they eat is rotten vegetables, leaves, and smelly fish and shrimps. If Tian Shao hadn't been lucky enough to come and invite him, he would still be struggling to survive in the slums.
People like Gong Qishui are good as friends, but they are unqualified as husbands and fathers.
Gong Zheng said: "In order to prevent him from using the money to support his apprentices and friends, I collected the salary and gave it to my mother. After paying the mortgage, my mother kept the rest. Zhang Bao couldn't pay back the loan sharks.
With his temperament, he will definitely vouch for this bastard. He is the editor-in-chief of Shaohua, so if he is willing to vouch for it, the financial company will also give him the honor."
But Gong Qishui left Shaohua Company. He has not made much achievements in these years, and other comic companies will not want him. Even if he is willing to guarantee it, the financial company will not agree.
Tian Shao reminded: "But your family still has two houses. If it comes to that point, you may not know that he will sell the house to save his apprentice."
Gong Zheng shook his head and said: "Don't worry, boss, our family has suffered a big loss once and will not be so stupid again. Of these two apartments, one is in my brother's name and the other is in my name. As long as we don't agree, this will
The house can’t be sold.”
Tian Shao thought he was very good, and he had a bottom line in not acting foolishly and filially. He turned around and discussed with Xing Shaohui, and promoted him one level, from team leader to editor-in-chief.
Later, Tian Shao called the company's middle and senior management to the office for a brief meeting. The first thing he talked about was Xiang Fei's harassment of female employees. If similar things happen in the future, he will not only be fired, but also held legally responsible; and
Those with bad behavior, such as gambling and drug addiction, will be fired immediately upon discovery. The second thing to discuss is recruitment. Because Gong Qishui left with six apprentices in the editorial department, these vacancies have to be filled, and departments such as art and planning have also
There is a shortage of people to recruit. Thirdly, the company needs to set up an animation department to prepare for the next animation shooting.
The first two were fine. Everyone knew that Gong Qishui and several of his apprentices were fired. But the establishment of the animation department was something no one expected.
Regarding the third topic, the group discussed it for more than two hours before settling on a basic charter.
After the meeting, Feng Yi reminded: "Boss, it's already 1:20, it's time to have lunch."
Tian Shao touched his growling stomach and said with a smile: "I don't need you to remind me, I know it's time to eat."
Opening the lunch box, he looked at the three cups of chicken, steamed pork ribs and boiled cabbage hearts inside. Tian Shao said: "The lunches provided by the company are not bad. You don't have to go out to get food when you come here in the future."
Tian Shao used to work, and because she was far away from home, she always ate at the company. At that time, she especially hoped that the company would have a canteen. Otherwise, the canteen was cleaner and hygienic than takeout. So Shaohua Company has provided lunch since its establishment until now. But it is not free.
The company subsidizes part of it, and the employees themselves contribute part. This move is very popular among employees.
