After a long while, He Desheng finally heard President Pei exhale on the other end of the phone, his emotions seemingly complex.

He couldn't help but feel puzzled.

What's wrong with President Pei?

Oh, he gets it. President Pei must know that the shared phone booths are leaving Jingzhou and heading towards the whole country, and he feels that this project is like a fledgling bird leaving the nest, and he feels gratified for it!

Yes, that must be it!

On the other end of the phone, Pei Qian only had one feeling: melancholy!

A perfectly good ten million had turned into twenty million.

The pressure is even greater!

"I'll think about it and give you an answer later."

After hanging up the phone, Pei Qian helplessly started calculating in his notebook where to throw this money.

Time is tight. It seems too late to open a few more Moyu Internet Cafes in another city, but Nifeng Logistics can continue to expand because it's relatively fast and can be done until a week before the settlement.

At the same time, the otto e1 phone stock can also be arranged; this burns money quickly.

Suppose Pei Qian piles up 5,000 otto phones in the warehouse, costing about twenty million.

Of course, if they all sell out… then the situation will be very bad.

In addition to these, Pei Qian also has an ultimate trump card, which is the Haunted Hostel project!

The Haunted Hostel project can continue into the next cycle. This place is a bottomless pit for burning money. Eating all twenty million is no problem at all.

But unless absolutely necessary, Pei Qian is unwilling to throw too much money into the Haunted Hostel.

Because the more money he throws in, the higher the horror level and the more exciting the experience will be, and the surrounding supporting facilities will quickly improve, which is not conducive to the project's future losses.

So, give Lü Mingliang some money and let him continue to fill Lin City with Nifeng Stations, covering all the areas that the Moyu Internet Cafe complex failed to reach.

Then give the remaining money to otto Technology, so that Chang You can stockpile more goods in the warehouse…

Just as Pei Qian was thinking, the phone rang again.

This time it was Ma Yiqun calling.

Pei Qian frowned and quickly answered the phone.

"President Pei, the Qidian Chinese Website's company account has another five million, which has already been transferred to you!" Ma Yiqun's voice revealed a hint of pride.

Pei Qian: "???"

He was stunned for two seconds and asked, "When did this happen?"

Ma Yiqun: "Just a few days ago."

"Weren't we settling last month's royalties recently? February's income just came out a few days ago, and after handling the company's situation, I asked the finance department to transfer it as soon as possible!"

Pei Qian's expression sank, and he couldn't help but frown: "Didn't I already say that you should spend this money yourself? The training class needs money right now. What's the point of transferring the money to me?"

Ma Yiqun was stunned for a moment: "There's enough money for the training class."

"President Pei, don't worry, this 5 million is not last month's profit. This money has already deducted the website's daily operating expenses, marketing expenses, subsidies for authors, and the expenses of the training class. I also left enough operating funds, and only the extra money was handed over."

"Moreover, all the benefits of the training class have been maximized, and I really can't think of where to spend this money for the time being, so I decided to hand it over."

"I heard that otto e1 mobile phones are short of funds for stocking up recently? This money should be able to play a greater value in their hands!"

Pei Qian was speechless.

You don't know where to spend this money, and I don't know either!

You throw it to me if you don't know where to spend it? Is there anyone as坑人 as you?

Without saying a word, you directly throw over five million. You're making it very difficult for me. I'm not psychologically prepared, okay!

Wait, Ma Yiqun just said that this money has already deducted the expenses of the training class?

Doesn't that mean…

The website's income has increased again???

The website had already started to make a profit before. Ma Yiqun tried to hand over the profit once, but Pei Qian decisively refused and told him to use the money to open an online writer training class.

This training class is ongoing every month. As long as the authors come, they will be provided with food and accommodation, a basic salary, and social insurance. In theory, this money should be spent cleanly.

But how did another five million come out last month???

Pei Qian keenly felt that something was wrong and quickly asked, "Did Qidian Chinese Website's income increase significantly again in February?"

After saying that, Pei Qian felt that the words were a bit strange. Why did I say "again"?

Ma Yiqun smiled: "Of course, President Pei, this is inseparable from your decision at the time!"

"Facts have proved that your decision to let me use the website's profits to open an online writer training class was definitely an important decision that will benefit the present and future generations!"

"Although we lost some profits in the short term, the benefits of the author training class are too many!"

"First of all, it allows those authors who have irregular lives and poor self-control to ensure regular work and rest. After solving their worries, they can devote themselves to creation and improve the output of creation."

"Secondly, authors exchange and learn from each other, constantly improving, allowing the middle-level authors of Qidian Chinese Website to grow rapidly!"

"Finally, the Tenda spirit learning you arranged for them is simply a stroke of genius. The authors have changed from blindly pursuing quantity to ensuring quality and quantity, which has made the overall direction of our website begin to transform into high-quality products, which is more conducive to retaining readers!"

"Most importantly, Cui Geng's *Butterfly Game* is a pleasant surprise. The news that the first order broke the record has spread throughout the entire online literature circle. Many authors saw that the upper limit of writing books on Qidian Chinese Website is so high, and they have come to open books one after another; and as the content of the entire website's novels continues to increase, and the number of high-quality content continues to increase, the loyalty and follow-up reading rates of readers are also constantly rising!"

"In short, Qidian Chinese Website has been reborn once again!"

Pei Qian almost became anxious after hearing half of it.

The arranged Tenda spirit learning is a stroke of genius? Let the authors change from blindly pursuing quantity to ensuring quality and quantity?

That's not right, weren't we supposed to have everyone updating more and more lazily?

Although Pei Qian was still confused and still didn't know what went wrong in the process of Tenda spirit learning, he was a person who was good at accepting reality.

"Stop the Tenda spirit learning immediately!" Pei Qian said immediately.

"Ah, okay President Pei, I also have this intention." Ma Yiqun deeply agreed with this.

Pei Qian: "?"

Ma Yiqun continued: "In fact, the second session of the author training class is now an old-to-new model, with one old author leading one new author. And the old authors have basically been to Tenda headquarters to receive the baptism of Tenda spirit."

"Now, relying on the intergenerational transmission between authors, it is already enough to carry forward the Tenda spirit, and it is no longer necessary to bother the colleagues in the Human Resources Department."

"So I also think this step can be cancelled."

Pei Qian: "..."

Damn it, it's too late!

Pei Qian's expected goal of letting the Tenda spirit spread to the entire training class seems to have been successfully achieved, but the effect is completely different from what he imagined!

Could it be… the enemy is in the Human Resources Department, and right next to me?

But Pei Qian thought about it again and fell into confusion.

Each department hasn't been working overtime recently!

The second selection of the zero overtime competition was just held at the end of last month. This time, more than half of the departments won the victory. Except for the departments that were particularly busy that month, such as Flying Fish Studio, which worked overtime a little, all other departments did not work overtime.

The Tenda Game Department, which has repeatedly failed to correct its behavior, has made significant progress and has not applied for any overtime last month.

And from Tang Yishu's regular feedback, everyone really hasn't come to secretly work overtime anymore…

It seems that the various departments at headquarters are implementing the Tenda spirit quite well.

So what is the problem?

Was there a problem from the beginning, or was there a problem when the Tenda spirit was transmitted to the training class? So it only affected these authors?

If it is the latter, just "isolate" these authors. If it is the former…

Pei Qian felt a headache.

He is very confused now. On the one hand, the inexplicable twenty-five million has made his already unstable psychological defense line a little shaky. On the other hand, he feels sincerely confused about the matter of "I have been encouraging employees to slack off, but the performance of various departments seems to be getting better and better."

"President Pei, if there is nothing else, I will hang up first. You continue to be busy." Ma Yiqun said.

Pei Qian quickly stopped thinking and stopped him: "Wait a minute!"

"Uh… President Pei, do you have any other instructions?" Ma Yiqun asked.

Pei Qian considered for a long time before gritting his teeth: "Change the revenue sharing of Qidian Chinese Website to 30/70. The author gets 70% and the website gets 30%. This applies to all authors and will take effect this month!"

Pei Qian also went all out.

In the long run, this move seems to further increase the website's traffic, but Pei Qian can't manage that much for the time being.

Let's take care of this settlement cycle first!

The income in March will definitely continue to grow. When the settlement comes at the end of the month, this money will make Pei Qian vomit blood again.

Therefore, he must seize the time to cut off the income of Qidian Chinese Website!

In this way, the website's income will plummet by 40% in an instant, which will reduce Pei Qian's burden by at least several million.

The highest revenue sharing allowed by the system is 20/80, but Pei Qian is afraid that 20/80 is too brutal and will instantly attract too many authors, causing endless troubles, so he only changed it to 30/70.

Although the revenue sharing ratio of Infinite Chinese Website is 50/50, there are also some other online literature websites on the market that adopt the 30/70 ratio. While reducing income, Qidian Chinese Website's move will not seem particularly abrupt.

Ma Yiqun hesitated for a moment: "Okay, President Pei, I understand."

Obviously, he felt that President Pei was going to continue burning money to grab authors.

Pei Qian was unable to explain this and could only let him fill in the blanks in his mind.

After hanging up the phone, Pei Qian was even more melancholy.

It's really a double whammy!

The thing he was worried about a few days ago was how to spend ten million.

After worrying for two days, the money turned into twenty-five million!

Now, relying on Nifeng Stations, it can only digest up to five million, because opening Nifeng Stations takes time. They must all be opened a week before the settlement. Opening too many at once is prone to problems.

As for the remaining twenty million…

Pei Qian gritted his teeth and stocked up on all otto phones!
