Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore Chapter 511: Linghui Entertainment - Too Hardcore, Too Compe

The next day, at noon while still eating lunch, before Xiao He could even process what was happening, Xiao Chen told him that Linghui Entertainnt had gone viral.

"Huh? Linghui Entertainnt is viral?"

Xiao He was still slurping noodles when he heard the news, and he was a bit dumbfounded.

"That's right, Brother Xiao! So many people online are discussing Linghui Entertainnt right now, a lot of the company's matters have already been dug up!"

Xiao Chen nodded frantically.

Xiao He put down his chopsticks, feeling uneasy in his heart.

After yesterday's shoot ended, Xiao He had imagined the public's reaction once the video went live.

Maybe his own topic popularity would skyrocket, maybe it would revolve around Young Master Huang's history of squandering wealth, or perhaps the core topics related to *Public Enemy Number One*.

But you're telling the background prop Linghui Entertainnt went viral instead?

Xiao He instinctively opened his phone, his expression sowhat grave. "Oh no, don't tell my capitalist face has been posted online by the employees!"

Although Linghui Entertainnt was a company they founded and was currently operating quite well, it was undeniable that its operational model wasn't much different from other entertainnt companies on the market.

What Xiao He held was a cri system, not a god-tier tycoon system. He couldn't possibly give employees daily benefits, casually grant them paid leave, or let them clock in and out with ease, working comfortably and leisurely.

On the contrary, precisely because the boss was too competitive and hardcore, overti had beco the norm at Linghui Entertainnt over the past year. Otherwise, Linghui Entertainnt couldn't have kept up with the boss's pace and developed so rapidly.

The only thing Xiao He could guarantee was the basic rights of the employees, fairness and justice regarding overti, performance, and such, ensuring the employees got what they worked for and received generous year-end bonuses.

But to say Linghui Entertainnt was so pure stream in the industry, a heavenly company, that was absolutely impossible.

Even Xiao He himself would feel guilty saying such things.

So when Xiao Chen said everyone was discussing their company, Xiao He, who was already very aware of his capitalist nature, braced himself to be scolded by netizens.

But when he opened the comnt section, Xiao He was a bit dumbfounded.

[That's what happens when you encounter a hardcore boss. At least your boss actually gets things done. Thinking about the one in my old office makes angry. Did nothing useful all day, just knew how to exploit employees and dock pay. I still want to curse him to go bankrupt sooner. Linghui Entertainnt is actually pretty decent. Once you've worked at a few more companies, you'll realize they're all pretty similar. At least Linghui Entertainnt has financial prospects, the boss works hard too, you get paid if you work hard, there are subsidies and leave for overti, and there's extra profit sharing in the year-end bonus. Do you understand how rare it is to encounter such a "normal" company?]

[True, but Xiao He is really competitive! He hasn't joined any crew recently, yet he still clocks in at the company every day, goes around inspecting various departnts, and even checked the account books. I really don't know where he gets all that energy to do these things.]

[Only after starting work do you realize, no one in the world would ever fall in love with their boss! Not even if the boss is Xiao He.]

[Before joining, I went for Brother Xiao. Now I've learned to join the others in the company cursing the boss. (PS: Brother Xiao, I'm sorry, I still love you, but please stay away from my work, aaaaah, sob sob.)]

[Wow, an actual employee appears! So the pressure must be huge in such a company too! Pity you for a second.]

[Actually, not necessarily. High pressure but good treatnt, high salary. It depends on personal choice. At least in such a company, efficiency is high for many tasks, and colleague relationships are relatively harmonious so far, no appearance of those bored, "annoying" colleagues.]

[New companies are like this. Hard to say later.]

[It's fine. At least Brother Xiao and the others have sharp eyesight. The projects they pick are pretty good. Last year's *Imperial Decree* multiplied our year-end bonus several tis over. This year there are several more profitable projects. Our overti days were a bit bitter, but at least we can see the money, not just the big pies the boss keeps drawing.]

[Competitive, way too competitive. Don't co, okay? This company is full of competitive kings, from the boss down to the employees, everyone is competitive to the extre. Around this Spring Festival, several projects overlapped, and Xiao He's assistants changed several batches. I left after three days before, it was simply terrifying.]

[Ah, that period was indeed very busy. But didn't we get over a month of long vacation afterwards! Did you leave too early? After the boss and them went abroad to film, we weren't that busy anymore. Clocking in daily, could even slack off a bit. Actually quite good. As long as you don't hit their promotional periods, life is pretty happy.]

[After reading through the comnt section, I just want to sigh with feeling: This money, Xiao He really deserves to earn it.]

[Dying of laughter, both new and old employees are full of fear towards the work intensity, and admiration for the boss's hardcore level.]

[I really can't stop laughing. When other companies get exposed, it's: Too exploitative, squeezing employees, hidden rules. But when it cos to Linghui Entertainnt, what gets exposed is: Too hardcore, too competitive.]

[I think I get it now. So criticize the work intensity, so criticize the boss being a competitive king, but not a single one says the boss is bad.]

[Who dares say the boss is bad? The boss leads by example, competing in life and death, single-handedly driving up the whole company's salaries. How can people have the nerve to criticize?]

[I'm really curious, how does Xiao He manage to be an actor filming dramas, run a company as a boss making investnts, and also study to get many certificates, mastering multiple skills?]

[Don't know. Maybe Xiao He really isn't human.]

[So that's it, that explains everything. [dog head emoji]]

After reading the comnts and discovering he wasn't human, Xiao He: ...

Good news: The company is viral, free exposure.

Bad news: The company environnt is too competitive, he's too inhuman.

What a sad story...

Xiao He put down his phone, looked up at Xiao Chen, and then found him also looking at his phone with great interest, tapping the screen frantically.

He narrowed his eyes, moved away from the dining table with light and silent steps.

Peeking over, sure enough, he found Xiao Chen frantically giving likes to comnts.

[Xiao He is truly the new era competitive king. If I had a boss like this, I'd probably want to swing on a swing at the company building entrance every day.] — Like, like.

[Brother Xiao, still pay attention to balancing work and rest. Otherwise, I feel like you'll be fine, but all the staff around you will be exhausted.] — Like, like.

[The employees around Brother Xiao work so hard. That high year-end bonus is ntal distress compensation. Suggest giving them more salary raises, otherwise you'll really scare people away.] — Like this one too.

Xiao He: ...

"Xiao Chen, do you need so extra ntal distress compensation added for you?"

The young man's voice drifted beside his ear, like a ghost coming to claim a life.

However, Xiao Chen, who was lowering his head and smiling while giving likes, remained completely unaware, his fingers still continuously tapping likes, but his mouth subconsciously asked, "Huh? Brother Xiao, what did you say?"

Then his offline brain suddenly regained control.

Xiao Chen belatedly realized a dangerous aura was coming from behind him.

His liking finger finally stopped. Xiao Chen gritted his teeth with a creaking sound, suddenly realizing the voice was coming from right behind him.

"Crack, crack—"

Sohow, terrifying sounds of bones dislocating ca from behind.

Even though they were in Brother Xiao's villa, the surrounding air inexplicably turned icy cold all of a sudden.

Worry rose in Xiao Chen's heart. He turned to look at the person behind him, only to find the young man standing behind him at so point, looking at him in a very twisted posture.

The young man was clearly facing away from him, yet his limbs were horrifyingly dislocated, his body leaning backwards as if trying to fold over backwards. His face bore no human expression, and the look in his eyes was like seeing prey.

"Holy shit aaaaah—"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Chen really felt like his eyes would roll back and he'd faint from fright.

Liu Rulan, who walked in from outside, happened to see such a horrifying scene. The corner of her eye twitched, then she grabbed the slipper from her foot and hurled it over. "Xiao He, try scaring your little assistant again—"

"Smack!"

Xiao Chen: ?

The scream cut off abruptly.
