The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 399

"Ten percent of the shares is not a lot, because I need to groom core members of the company around me. If I'm not even willing to take out this little bit of benefit, would you be willing to come?" Rong Dai looked at the two of them with a faint smile as she explained.

"My studio is still very small-scale, at least for now."

"With your talents, as soon as you graduate, there will be many good companies trying to recruit you, and the salaries they offer may be more than the ten percent of shares I'm offering."

She had her considerations for offering these shares.

For her studio to develop, she had to have core members. No matter how the staff below them changed around, these core members had to remain steady for at least the next five years.

Otherwise, if any one of the core members left, it would be hugely detrimental for her, especially the designers.

There was a hint of an overlord clause in this, but even if she had to shortchange herself, she would not shortchange partners who worked hard with her.

"Also, in the agreement below, you haven't seen yet that to get these ten percent of shares, you need to guarantee not leaving the company for five years."

She had originally wanted to require ten years initially.

But after discussing with Lu Nianzhi, she changed it to five years.

Because if after five years, her company still wanted the core members to leave, the profitability of the company would be easy to imagine.

So whether it was five or ten years, if the end result was the same, no matter how good the conditions given in the agreement, those who wanted to leave would still leave.

These five years were also a deadline she was giving herself.

Song Xuechun and Liang Jiayi were not totally ignorant young girls. After all, their parents had built fortunes from nothing, so from growing up watching them, they understood a little bit about things in the workplace.

"If that's the case, then it still seems reasonably fair."

Song Xuechun always spoke her mind directly in front of Rong Dai. She used to be a little more cautious about Rong Dai's temper previously.

But after noticing Rong Dai's change, she had become bolder, speaking whatever popped into her mind without restraint.

Liang Jiayi wanted to remind her, but Song Xuechun was sitting too far away for her to discreetly give a reminder. She could only sigh inwardly.

With a personality like hers, she was bound to suffer losses sooner or later!

Putting aside Rong Dai's current change, she just had a feeling Rong Dai's scheming had deepened compared to before.

With Song Xuechun's blunt personality, she could offend someone without even realizing it.

"If after five years you're still willing to stay with the company, we can sign a new contract and I'll also increase your shares."

"You're both studying design, so you also know that market competition is intense now."

"Jinxiufang has always been at the top in this field. With Jinxiufang affected this time, for many people, this is an opportunity."

"Especially in this age of information explosion, I want every work produced by my company to be the highest quality."

As Rong Dai explained, with the current scale of her studio, ten percent of shares really was not much.

"You don't need to explain this stuff to me. I won't understand anyway. I just want to create the works I want."

"I've loved design since I was little. Beautiful clothes, everyone likes them. I don't have any baggage. As long as the pay you give is enough for me to eat and dress warmly, that's good enough for me!" Song Xuechun replied with a smile, unable to resist standing up again to look around the place where she would work in future.

It was within Rong Dai's expectations that Song Xuechun would agree so readily.

"What about you, Jiayi?"

She looked at Liang Jiayi to ask.

Liang Jiayi's thinking was meticulous. Rong Dai had seen her works before too. If she could be groomed well, with time and good operations, developing her company in future would just be a matter of time.

But she didn't want to force anyone either.

"If you have any other concerns, that's fine too. After all, your studies should still be your priority for now."
