Charm point maxed out, inheriting game assets

Chapter 630: Chapter 310: Lele’s Request for Help, School Beauty’s Yoga Pants Chapter 630: Chapter 310: Lele’s Request for Help, School Beauty’s Yoga Pants Seeing the information for the five regular employees, Tang Song’s eyes flashed with reflection.

The sense of belonging to the enterprise had appeared many times in the game copy.

It wasn’t surprising that Gao Mengting scored 100, after all, she herself held a 25% stake in the company.

But he hadn’t expected He Liting and Sun Youguang to both reach 99.

That was already the maximum value for non-shareholders.

Especially Sun Youguang, who had just been a regular finance employee for over two months and had just become a full-time employee today, also had a 99.

Having such an employee in the finance department gave him a strong sense of security.

Immediately after, Tang Song turned his gaze to He Liting and nodded with satisfaction.

His choice back then was right; Qianqian’s cousin was indeed reliable.

In a live streaming company, it was common for top broadcasters to fall out with the company.

There could be no such situation with Songmei Clothing, as it was critical to his growth plan.

Being silently appraised by Tang Song, He Liting felt a bit weak in the knees.

She had no idea what President Tang was planning.

Since he remained silent, she also felt it was inappropriate to bring up leaving.

Tang Song’s gaze returned to the system interface, looking at He Liting’s character card.

Now that the task [① Perfecting the structure] was finished, it was time to dedicate all efforts to [② Creating an IP].

He clicked on the character portrait.

[Opportunity Event trigger selected as “Streamer – He Liting”.]

[Opportunity Event generation in progress … Please wait patiently.]

[Event-related: Songmei Clothing, He Yiyi, live broadcasting, internet celebrity, Tangzong Entertainment, idol stars…]

Looking at the event-related information, Tang Song raised an eyebrow slightly.

The [Opportunity Card] could actually cause Songmei Clothing and Tangzong Entertainment to interact?

Previously, when the Charm was 60 and he unlocked the character Mo Xiangwan, he considered using the energy of Tangzong Entertainment to accelerate the development of Songmei Clothing’s “Creating an IP”.

All that was needed was to arrange for a few stars to interact with He Yiyi in the live broadcast room to complete it quickly.

However, the system’s prompt at that time was “Not allowed” to take actions that could influence the players’ Charm scores.

It remained uncertain when this Opportunity Event would trigger.

The screen dissipated.

Looking at He Liting, Tang Song encouraged her warmly, “Yiyi, you are not only an employee of the company but also Qianqian’s cousin and my friend. Work hard to operate this account, and I will give you all the resources and opportunities you need. Mengting mentioned to me that once your account’s IP takes off, you will be given a certain amount of equity as a reward.”

He Liting’s eyes widened instantly.

Stock options! Am I going to become a shareholder of the company??

She then quickly bent down excitedly, “Thank you, President Tang! I will definitely not let you down!”

Because she was wearing a low-cut dress, when she bent over, her chest revealed quite a bit.

Tang Song glanced then immediately looked away, “I’m finished here, you can go back to work.”

“Goodbye, President Tang!”

“Goodbye.”

Watching He Liting leave the office with spring in her step, Tang Song shook his head with a smile.

Although her resume was quite ordinary, it was people like her who knew how to seize opportunities.

He had seen her attendance sheet when he was setting up the OA system.

She was usually the first to arrive, the last to leave, and would even take the initiative to work overtime on weekends.

Qianqian’s cousin was indeed a very ambitious and loyal girl.

He hoped she would not let him down.

“Ding-a-ling—” His phone rang.

Tang Song answered the call, “Hello, Luo Bin.”

“President Tang, the share transfer of Lanfeng International Hotel Co., Ltd. has been completed. I’m organizing the documents, items, and information involved in the share transfer process. Are you available on Wednesday? You’ll need to meet with the hotel management.”

After thinking for a moment, Tang Song said, “How about Wednesday afternoon?”

“Alright, I’ll arrange it.”

He hung up the call.

Tang Song picked up his coffee and took a big sip. The temperature was just right, and the flavor was rich.

The due diligence on Mortals was already concluded, and tomorrow morning he needed to review and sign the investment agreement.

With this matter taken care of, he would have gone through the full process of investing in a business.

After that, by using the [Badge – Academic God (Halo)] to fill in gaps in his financial knowledge, he would become a true investor.

The company was growing, and so was he.

…

He had just sat back down in his chair, ready to get back to work.

His phone rang again—it was unusually busy today.

Tang Song glanced at the phone screen; it was an unfamiliar local number.

He picked up, “Hello, this is Tang Song.”

Immediately after, an anxious voice tinged with sobbing came through the handset, “Hello, hello! Good afternoon, Brother Song. This is Qian Lele, part-time at Glimmer Coffee. I’m very sorry to bother you like this.”

Tang Song frowned slightly and spoke warmly, “It’s okay, what’s the matter?”

“It’s like this, last night I updated and added a batch of bakery and beverage items to the mini-program backend, including information, images, and prices, set to launch at noon today.

But when I got to the cafe after my classes, I found a lot of the data was missing from the backend, and these products are about to go on sale.

I swear I didn’t delete anything, but the data has indeed disappeared.

I study computer science; I know that databases do regular backups, so please help me see if there’s still a chance to recover!

Otherwise, it will bring a huge economic loss to the coffee shop, please help!”

It was apparent that Qian Lele was desperate and understood the gravity of the situation, yet her words remained clear and concise.

Tang Song immediately reassured her, “Don’t worry, Lele, the data won’t be lost. The delete function I implemented doesn’t actually execute a delete operation in the database. Instead, it just changes a field, distinguishing deletion with (0,1). Also, the database is backed up every morning at dawn, so it’s foolproof.”

As an experienced developer, he often encountered such issues.

Those managing the backend were human and could make mistakes, so having error tolerance was essential.

Tang Song already knew from previous conversations that Qian Lele was a computer science student at Yan City Normal University, knowledgeable in programming and development.

Otherwise, Xie Shuyu wouldn’t have entrusted her with such an important maintenance task.

It’s just that Qian Lele is still a university student and hasn’t been involved in specific project development; otherwise, she definitely wouldn’t have been so scared.

But it’s no wonder, she’s just a part-time university student.

If she really caused a huge loss, the consequences would be unbearable for her.

Hearing Tang Song’s words, Qian Lele finally breathed a sigh of relief and said excitedly, “Thank you, Brother Song! Thank you so much, can you please help recover it now?”

“Hold on,” Tang Song responded, placing his phone on speaker at his side.

He opened Navicat and entered the database corresponding to the Glimmer Coffee applet.

Tang Song softly asked, “Lele, what time did you add or modify the products last night?”

“Between 20:00 and 22:00.”

Tang Song checked the operation logs and cross-referenced the product table. Indeed, the del (delete) fields were all set to 1, meaning they were hidden.

After batch recovery, Tang Song said with a reassuring smile, “All done, they are all recovered. You can take a look.”

“Right away!” There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by Qian Lele’s joyous and excited voice: “They are indeed recovered, Brother Song, you’re amazing, thank you so much!”

“No need to be polite; after all, I’m also a part-timer at Glimmer Coffee.”

“Brother Song, could you please check why the data was lost? I’m afraid I accidentally made a mistake, and I’ll definitely avoid it in the future.”

Tang Song paused, looked at the deletion log, and said, “Your account performed 43 delete operations from 23:11 to 23:33 last night.”

“Ah!?” Qian Lele exclaimed on the phone, explaining, “Brother Song, I’m not lying to you, I was already asleep in the dorm at that time, and I don’t have a sleepwalking habit, really, could you check if there’s a bug in the system or if it was attacked?”

Tang Song raised his eyebrows, “No, every single log entry is clear, the IP address is the same as when you added products before.”

Hearing this, Qian Lele fell silent on the other end.

After a while, her voice sounding a bit dry, she said, “I understand, Brother Song, I think I know what happened. It’s my fault. I’ll change my account password immediately, and such a mistake will never happen again. I’m really sorry! Truly sorry!”

“It’s okay, don’t worry about the system stuff. Just notify me in time if there are any issues.”

“Then I won’t bother you anymore, goodbye.”

“Goodbye.”

After hanging up the phone, Tang Song’s gaze flickered slightly.

It seems like this Lele had problems in the dorm.

“Ding-dong—” A WeChat notification sounded.

[Glimmer Coffee-Qian Lele: “If you have time, come to the Glimmer Coffee near the normal university. I’ll treat you to cake as a thank you.”]

Tang Song replied, “I won’t be polite then, I’ll come over some other day to eat.”

[Glimmer Coffee-Qian Lele: Glimmer Coffee (Morning Star Building Store).map]

Tang Song shook his head with a smile, she really was a down-to-earth girl.

He had always had a good impression of Qian Lele.

The first time they met, she took the initiative to pass him materials, dressing simply and acting sincerely and politely.

In the few WeChat conversations they had, she was also very humble and respectful, and she was decisive in her actions; she never troubled him with things she could figure out on her own.

…

July 12, 2023, Wednesday, cloudy with thunderstorms, 23~33℃.

Outside the 270-degree wraparound glass curtain wall, the sky was tinged with a deep shade of gray.

The clouds were thick and low, as if within reach.

“Huff—Huff—”

After completing two sets of high-intensity fat-burning exercises, Tang Song lay on the yoga mat in the living room, panting.

Touching his clearly defined and smooth abs, he had a broad smile on his face.

Life becomes meaningful when you have clear goals; every effort feels worthwhile.

From the initial layer of fat to the six-pack abs he now sported, it was all earned through his hard work and sweat.

After resting, Tang Song stood up from the yoga mat.

He began to correct his posture.

Once everything was finished.

He picked up his phone from the coffee table and saw two new messages.

[Shen Yuyan: “I heard that you are signing the investment agreement with Mortals today. It’s a shame I’m too busy to witness it myself. Good luck! I hope the cooperation goes smoothly, and your company soars!”

[Shen Yuyan: “(#CoverMouthSmile) Haven’t woken up yet? Friendly reminder, there will be thunderstorms today; I just told Qingqing to bring an umbrella to work.”]

There was more than half an hour’s gap between the two messages, coinciding with his workout time, which is why he hadn’t replied.

Tang Song’s smile grew warmer, feeling that School Beauty Shen was a little anxious.

Unlike Xue, who sends sexy photos right away, Shen Yuyan obviously played a higher game.

She used to share investment articles and news with him every day, discussing hot topics with him.

It seems she wanted to maintain her persona of an excellent, independent, and hardworking school beauty.

After some thought, Tang Song replied with a smile, “Just finished working out, didn’t see your message earlier. Thanks, and I wish Youjie Housekeeping smooth sailing.”

“Buzz Buzz Buzz—” His phone immediately vibrated.

[Shen Yuyan: “It seems the timing of my message wasn’t right, I need to choose a better time next time (#ThinkingHard).”]

[Shen Yuyan: “But we do have a tacit understanding; I’m also working out. Recently I’ve been so busy at work and gained some weight, now trying hard to get rid of it.”]

[Shen Yuyan: Selfie in mirror.jpg]

After opening Shen Yuyan’s photo, Tang Song couldn’t help but hit ‘like’.

She was a truly well-endowed former school beauty!

Thin waist, long legs, and a generous bust.

Especially in yoga pants, she looked incredibly sexy.

“Keep on working hard!”

Tang Song chuckled to himself, responding casually: Keep it up.jpg.

Seeing the once high-and-mighty university school beauty treating him in such a manner, to say he was completely unmoved would be insincere.

But he knew what aspect of him caught Shen Yuyan’s interest.

If he had met School Beauty Shen instead of Qianqian at the start, he would surely be smitten with her flattery.

If he hadn’t gone through the “Lin Muxue’s Whispers” side story, hadn’t honed his EQ and understanding through Xue, he might have fallen for her ploy by now.

But now… Well,

School Beauty Shen, if you want it, then go ahead and be proactive! Go for it!
