After the incident at the gym, Lin Ruoxi didn't say a word to Yang Cheng for the entire weekend. Yang Cheng looked at the woman who was frozen all over again and couldn't help but feel that there was still a long way to go before he "thawed".
At least, Lin Ruoxi saw him as a hooligan again. Although he wasn't considered a hooligan legally, he couldn't do anything about it since she saw it this way.
On Monday, Yang Cheng went to work and bought breakfast for the women in the PR Department as usual. He chatted with Zhao Hongyan and the others for a while, then he left the headquarters of Yu Lei and ran to the newly built office building opposite.
He took the elevator all the way to the 50th floor. When he walked out of the elevator, he was greeted by the eye-catching bright signboard of "Yu Lei Entertainment Culture Company".
There were two sweet and dignified young girls sitting at the front desk. They looked to be around 23 or 24 years old, most likely freshmen.
"Director Yang, you're here," Wang Jie, who was wearing a light blue business suit, smiled as usual and was already waiting for him at the door. Beside her was Zhao Teng, who was also nodding at Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng didn't expect his two assistants to really think so highly of him. They were waiting for him at the company's door so early in the morning. Fortunately, he wasn't late and came at the appointed time. Otherwise, he would be letting down these two colleagues who were working hard.
Seeing that his subordinates respected him so much, Yang Cheng subconsciously made up his mind. He couldn't say that he would do everything himself, but he would do what he had to do seriously. At the very least, he couldn't be a burden to these two good colleagues who were working hard for the company's future.
"Have you had breakfast?" Yang Cheng asked with a smile.
Wang Jie and Zhao Teng were stunned. They didn't expect Yang Cheng to say such a thing. Moreover, he was smiling and didn't have the slightest arrogance of a superior.
From their point of view, Yang Cheng was able to sit in such a high position at such a young age and still be so indifferent and peaceful. As a result, Yang Cheng was unconsciously looked up to by them.
The two of them nodded. Zhao Teng smiled and made a gesture of invitation. "Director Yang, let me show you your office. You were busy last week and couldn't make it. Let me introduce you to our departments."
Although Yang Cheng was not interested, he still responded and followed Zhao Teng and Wang Jie to inspect the company.
Because it was an entertainment company, other than the administrative staff, there were also many entertainment workers, producers, and of course, some training rooms and artists' studios.
Therefore, it was necessary for Yu Lei to buy the ten-story office building.
Yang Cheng followed Zhao Teng and Zhao Teng to seven floors before arriving at the executive floor where he worked. Walking into the bright and tidy office hall, many busy employees looked at Yang Cheng curiously.
Everyone was wondering who the young man was that needed the company's two managers to accompany him was. When Yang Cheng walked into his "director's office", almost everyone's eyes fell out.
This seemingly ordinary and rash young man with a smile was actually the company's real leader, the director who had never shown his face!
Although Yang Cheng's office was not as big as Lin Ruoxi's CEO office, it was still more than a hundred square meters. Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows was the bustling scenery of Zhonghai City. Directly opposite was the headquarters of Yu Lei.
Green potted plants were placed around the office. There was a mahogany desk and a leather swivel chair. There were a few black sofas made of hard leather.
An Apple computer was turned on. On the desktop was Yu Lei's logo and below it was the words "entertainment company".
Yang Cheng was very satisfied. He suddenly felt that being the director wasn't a bad choice. At least this office was comfortable to look at.
"It's well decorated, I like it," Yang Cheng said to Wang Jie and Zhao Teng.
"As long as the director likes it. If there's anything you need, feel free to let the secretary know," Zhao Teng said, "Oh right, does the director need a secretary or an assistant? We already have enough basic administrative staff, but we're still recruiting assistants. If there's a need, I can help the director find one, or the director can pick one himself. "
Secretary? Assistant? A saying popped up in Yang Cheng's mind: If there's nothing to do, do the secretary; if there's something to do, do the secretary …
Thinking about this, Yang Cheng was really tempted. Unfortunately, the women he could touch now were Liu Mingyu who was the head of the public relations department, Qiangwei who was the boss of the underworld, and he had a lot of things to do. If he were to talk about others … Tang Wan who hadn't contacted him for a few days could be touched. Although he hadn't met her yet, she had so many businesses, why would she be his secretary?
The most suitable one would be that chick Anxin. She was definitely cultured. Whether it was "doing things" or "being done", she was very good at it. Unfortunately, she was still playing hide-and-seek on the plane.
Although he really wanted to see if there were any beauties suitable to be his secretary, Yang Cheng gave up. He had unintentionally provoked so many women, how would he be able to take care of them all if he went to look for them?
"Forget it, I'm also a lazy person. Don't put too much hope on me. You two will have to work harder to share the daily work. I believe in your abilities. If you really think it's hard to make a decision, or if you need to discuss it with me, then let me know, "Yang Cheng said.
Zhao Teng and Wang Jie looked at each other helplessly, but they still agreed.
Yang Cheng looked at the desk and saw a stack of documents. He asked, "What are these?"
Zhao Teng immediately explained, "Director, although our company is still recruiting artistes and managers, we can't just wait until we have enough people before we start work. Therefore, we plan to start one or two projects in the near future. These are the projects that we plan to invest in. After all, it's the first official project investment since the company was established. Therefore, I hope that Director can directly participate in it. "
Yang Cheng had a headache, but seeing that his two assistants were so dedicated, he could only sit down. He pretended to take the pile of documents and casually flipped through them.
Zhao Teng and Wang Jie sat on the opposite guest's chair, quietly waiting for Yang Cheng to speak.
Yang Cheng's reading speed was still very fast. Although there were some professional things that he didn't understand, it didn't affect him much.
After looking through approximately eight proposals, Yang Chen frowned and asked, "The investments for these projects, no matter if it's movies, dramas, commercials, variety shows, or fashion shows, with the current team of our company, they all require the participation of external manpower in order to be completed, right?"
"Yes, Director. Actually, movies can be produced with low cost. Some movies that are produced with an investment of two to three million can also make a lot of profit," Wang Jie suggested, "I think we can look for some good scripts, hire one or two outstanding A-list movie stars, and make the cost not more than ten million. That way, the movie that's produced should have a high profit ratio."
Yang Cheng smiled and said, "Let me ask you a question."
"Huh?" Wang Jie was stunned. "Director, please ask."
"What's the total scale of our Yu Lei Group?" Yang Cheng asked.
Wang Jie didn't understand, but she still answered, "Excluding the liquid funds, the total assets are close to thirty billion."
"Then what's the status of our Yu Lei in the country?"
"Of course it's the leader in the industry. After two years, when the new materials are invested, we'll definitely be one of the top fashion companies in the world," Wang Jie said proudly.
Yang Chen nodded. "Then, for an entertainment company like us, as a company with a brand like Yu Lei, if our first investment, our first big move, is for a low-to-medium budget movie — of course, I'm talking about a low-to-medium budget movie in our eyes. How would the public view us?"
Wang Jie and Zhao Teng frowned and thought about it. "Director, you're saying …"
"That's right. There are two possibilities. First, we don't have the determination, courage, and confidence. Our leadership is incompetent. Our employees and the outside world will be disappointed. Yu Lei's board of directors … Hmm, although ninety percent of Yu Lei's shares are in General Lin's hands, at least General Lin will be disappointed. Second, our peers and the industry will think that we're just playing around, and they won't have the firm intention to cooperate with us. "
Zhao Teng agreed. "Director, what you said makes sense. Since it's our first big project, we have to make a name for ourselves. European and American blockbusters often don't get good reviews, but they do well in the box office. A big part of the reason is because of their big productions. An investment of hundreds of millions is the capital to keep the audience in suspense. Even if we can't earn enough profit, we usually won't lose money. What's important is that the company's reputation and the production team's reputation will spread. "
"But … our company is still in the initial stage. Although General Lin has given us ample funds, if we invest more than a hundred million in a project, it might cause a shortfall in our capital chain. That's not good for our operations. After all, we still have to sign many famous artists and teams," Wang Jie, as the head of the marketing department, was a little worried.
Zhao Teng added, "Yeah, Director Yang. Let's not talk about the investment. If we want to get famous teams and stars to participate, the signing fee alone won't be small."
Yang Cheng nodded in understanding. "You don't have to worry about this. I can get a good relationship to cooperate with them. If it's done well, we can work together for a long time."
Wang Jie and Zhao Teng were stunned. They didn't expect Yang Cheng to already have a partner.
