The rest of the meeting contained little of substance. After presiding for another half hour, listening to a few executives' reports and statements, Li De announced the session was over.
He never expected to completely unite this club of over 300 employees in a single day, or to make them all obey his commands instantly.
A force needed to be managed over time. With Crimson Moon's existing foundation, he was absolutely confident that after the restructuring, these professional talents would provide him with all the support he needed.
A team of several hundred collecting and analyzing data for him, their efficiency would far surpass what he could achieve alone.
He could already picture the future, with countless treasures and ancient relics pouring into his hands.
After the meeting dispersed.
President's Office.
Li De sat behind the desk, his expression amused as he looked at Zhao Yue.
"Assistant Zhao, the compensation plan, the Glory Strategic Division, and the matter of recruiting new talent from the e-sports academies, I'm leaving all of it to you."
Hearing how bluntly Li De assigned the tasks, Zhao Yue's expression turned a little strange. Was her boss perhaps a bit too unfeeling?
"There's a lot to do right now. You can recruit an assistant team of up to ten people to help you handle everything."
When Li De finished, he revealed a meaningful smile.
"If your performance satisfies me, then regarding the vacant vice president position, I think there'll be no need to trouble the headhunters."
Although she knew Li De was dangling a tempting vision, Zhao Yue still couldn't help her heart beating faster.
As a professional woman, stepping into a vice president role meant her career would rise to an entirely new level.
In the future, when headhunters came calling, her salary wouldn't be less than a million yuan annually.
Right now, she was earning only four hundred thousand a year.
"Thank you, President Li. I will do my utmost. I'll have all of these plans submitted to you within three days."
Her tone was firm. Becoming a VP wasn't just about higher pay and better benefits.
It also meant more autonomy and more ability to protect the club she had poured ten years of her life into.
"Very good. I appreciate your effort during this period.
If you find a shortage of management talent, feel free to contact Tianyue Headhunters to help recruit. Our accounts still have plenty of funds."
With money came confidence. Backed by the Crimson Mage Tower's Magic Scroll Factory, he could exchange large sums of RMB for Gold Pucks at any time. So his words naturally carried weight.
For three days straight, Crimson Moon underwent a complete restructuring.
All the miscellaneous departments were merged.
Under Li De's will, Crimson Moon was now organized into three main divisions.
First, the Professional Player Division. Excluding those who had resigned over the past few days, there were still 120 professional players remaining. These were seasoned veterans with solid game knowledge and skills.
Thanks to the booming growth of the gaming industry, professional players had become a recognized occupation. While Crimson Moon didn't have any players as influential as celebrities, their skill level was excellent. They were the elite among professionals, otherwise, the Sword and Shield Club could never have grown so large.
Aside from the teams in the two profitable games, all other players had been reassigned by Li De to become Glory reserve players. They were now studying Glory in depth to prepare for the official launch.
Those two ongoing games were merely a temporary means of maintaining morale. Once Glory opened, all of them would be incorporated into it.
The second division was the Data Analysis Division.
This was a division Li De paid special attention to. It combined the former coaching staff, data collection teams, analytics teams, and more, making it the largest unit in Crimson Moon, a total of 130 people.
Other than the twenty or so still gathering data on the two profitable games, everyone else had started researching Glory.
To support this, Li De planned to invest ten million to establish a dedicated data analysis center. It was still in preparation but would definitely be operational before Glory went live.
In the future, this division would be a crucial intelligence source, with an extraordinary role.
The third division was the In-Game Equipment Trading Division.
This would become Crimson Moon's main money-making tool.
Li De's advantage in Glory was simply too overwhelming.
But to keep expanding this advantage, he needed game traders.
He could use outdated weapons, equipment, or even Gold Pucks to acquire all sorts of rare materials from players, exploiting information gaps to 'harvest' them.
This was another division Li De had great confidence in. It currently had 45 people.
In the future, he planned to expand it to a 100-person team, but for now, it was sufficient.
Finally, there was the small Logistics Support Department, no need to elaborate, twenty-plus people dedicated to servicing all the others.
Just like that, Crimson Moon's three-part structure was established:
The Professional Player Division, the Data Analysis Division, and the In-Game Equipment Trading Division, this trident would be Li De's vital weapon in his coming campaigns.
Players were military power. Data analysis was intelligence. Equipment trading was capital.
With money, manpower, and information, there was no reason to fear any battle.
Unfortunately, Glory hadn't launched yet. The trident he had personally forged was still lying in wait.
But Li De believed that the day Glory opened would be the day his trident revealed its edge.
Afterward, Li De stayed on Earth for a while longer to handle the aftermath of the acquisition. Once Crimson Moon had begun to stabilize, he re-entered Glory.
By then, he had spent eleven days on Earth, while a full month had passed in Glory.
Yet Dawn City's development hadn't stopped in his absence, and this time, Li De returned with many new ideas to implement there.
