Chapter 390 Joining Boring Short Videos

"Mr. Li, is everything alright?"

After picking up, Liu Weiwei asked cautiously. This was her financial backer, after all; she dared not be negligent and spoke with extreme politeness.

"I do have some matters I would like to discuss with you."

Li Shen spoke slowly. He had intended to contact Liu Weiwei at two o'clock to talk about her joining Boring Short Videos.

However, at two o'clock, he saw that Liu Weiwei was in the middle of a live teaching session, so he did not call, fearing it would affect the quality of her instruction.

He had assumed the broadcast would end by six o'clock, given that the daily payout only covered four hours, and no compensation was provided for extra time.

Therefore, most streamers chose to end their broadcast after hitting the four-hour mark.

But to his surprise, Liu Weiwei had broadcast from 2 PM until 8 PM before finishing, and her roommate was the same.

"Mr. Li, please go ahead."

Hearing that there was indeed something to discuss, Liu Weiwei could not help but feel a little nervous.

"It's like this: we at Boring Short Videos have been keeping an eye on your performance, and you've also done a lot of promotion for Boring Short Videos."

"We have made a decision: we would like to invite you to join Boring Short Videos and become official employees of Boring Short Videos."

Li Shen stated his purpose directly, then continued.

"Upon joining Boring Short Videos, we offer you the following benefits. You can listen to them and then make your decision."

"Regarding salary, we offer you a monthly salary of 30,000, and we will pay your social insurance and housing fund in full. Every month, there will also be various benefits and subsidies, such as travel subsidies and shopping cards. If you don't have a driver's license, we will cover the cost for you to obtain one. Also, if you wear glasses, the cost of replacing your glasses after joining the company will be fully reimbursed by the company."

"The salary is not fixed; it will increase over time."

"Besides these, company holidays follow the statutory holidays, with weekends off and no overtime."

"Those are the general benefits. Of course, the company will hold various activities from time to time, such as sports meetings, which also come with excellent rewards."

"What do you think?"

After detailing the company's benefits, Li Shen fell silent, waiting quietly for a response from the other end.

"Mr. Li, could you give us some time to discuss this?"

Liu Weiwei asked tentatively. Listening to the benefits Li Shen offered, she didn't know how to make a decision immediately.

"Of course. I'll hang up the phone for now. Once you've discussed it, just call me back."

Li Shen didn't pressure her; after saying this, he hung up.

Inside the dormitory, Liu Weiwei looked at the disconnected phone, dazed for a long while.

After a while, she came to her senses and looked at Yang Yaoyao, who was sitting to the side.

"Yaoyao, what do you want to choose?"

When she answered the phone just now, she had put it on speaker, so Yang Yaoyao had heard all of Mr. Li's words.

Yang Yaoyao looked hesitant upon hearing this; she didn't know how to choose either.

In terms of current salary alone, they were making 800 yuan per day, which was 24,000 per month.

But now, Mr. Li was offering them a salary of 30,000, which was 6,000 more than their current pay. Plus, there were many benefits, including social insurance and a housing fund—things that didn't exist with their current streaming.

Furthermore, there were weekends off, whereas they had to stream every single day without any rest.

If calculated carefully, the salary and benefits offered by Mr. Li far exceeded their current streaming income.

However, what made them hesitant was that their streaming tier could be upgraded.

If they reached the third tier, they would make 1,200 per day, which was 36,000 per month.

Of course, if one calculated carefully, compared to the 30,000 salary upon joining, this 36,000 was about the same, especially since there were many other benefits after joining Boring Short Videos.

But if they stayed longer, they could potentially raise their streaming pay to the fourth tier, which was the highest possible.

That was 1,600 per day, or 48,000 per month.

This compensation was already very high for them.

Yang Yaoyao thought for a long time before finally making a decision, looking up at Liu Weiwei.

"I've decided. I want to join the short video platform."

After much deliberation, she felt that, for now at least, joining the short video platform was the best choice. Plus, it came with benefits like social insurance, which meant she would truly be working at a company.

It would also be easier to explain to her parents; otherwise, with their old-fashioned mindset, they would definitely worry about her doing live teaching.

Moreover, if she continued to choose live teaching, although there was a chance to increase her pay, it would take time.

Not to mention the fourth tier of pay, just to reach the third tier would require time.

The requirement to reach the third tier was to have 500,000 people watching the subject-based live teaching, and to maintain that for a month.

After promoting for so long, they only had barely over 80,000 people watching their educational streams.

Therefore, it would take a long time to increase the number of viewers for the subject-based live teaching to 500,000.

After comparing it like this, she still felt that joining the short video platform was better.

"In that case, let's join Boring Short Videos together."

Liu Weiwei smiled slightly, then exclaimed with pleasant surprise.

She had also thought about it carefully just now and decided to join Boring Short Videos. She had been wondering what she would do if Yang Yaoyao chose to continue with the subject-based streaming—whether she should try to persuade her otherwise.

Unexpectedly, Yang Yaoyao also chose to join Boring Short Videos, which was a happy outcome for everyone; the two of them could continue working together.

"Then I will call Mr. Li back."

Liu Weiwei took out her phone and quickly dialed the number.

"Well, have you decided?"

Mr. Li's voice came through the phone.

"Mr. Li, we have decided. We choose to join the Boring Short Videos platform."

Liu Weiwei answered.

"Then welcome to the team of Boring Short Videos. See when you have time to come to the company to sign the contract, and then you will be officially employed."

"Alright, Mr. Li. We don't have much to prepare, so we can go tomorrow. It will probably be in the afternoon."

Liu Weiwei calculated and gave an answer.

"Good, then we'll contact each other by phone tomorrow."

After confirming the time, Li Shen hung up the phone directly.

Liu Weiwei put away her phone and looked at Yang Yaoyao.

"We agreed to go to the short video platform tomorrow to sign the contract."

"Hmm, it just so happens that the Boring Short Videos platform is in Jiangcheng. We'll pack up now and fly back to Jiangcheng tomorrow morning."

Yang Yaoyao nodded and then continued.

"I'll call home. After signing the contract, you can stay at my place for the time being."

She had heard from her mother a while ago that they seemed to have moved to a new house with many Rooms, so there would be plenty of space for her and Liu Weiwei.

As for her parents moving, she was in favor of it.

Since her parents were working at that Garment factory, the salary and benefits were quite good, and she herself now had a good job.

Her parents should definitely move to a better living environment; the old house before was too small and too old.

Even if her parents didn't want to move, she intended to save up money to get them a better living environment, and her younger sister was in school and needed a good learning environment as well.

However, if she called to say she was going back to Jiangcheng to work, her parents would definitely start trying to persuade her to work at that Garment factory again, and they would tell her it was a Group company.

It wasn't like she hadn't been to that Garment factory. Calling it a Group company—they were just fooling her parents, who didn't know any better. She knew what the requirements for a Group company were.

But she didn't say anything more about it; at the very least, that Garment factory treated her parents very well.

Since her parents believed it was a Group company, then it was a Group company. She wouldn't expose the truth.
