"I think we should still be cautious and at least look at so other scripts before making a decision. Of course, if President Lu insists on filming, to reduce risk, we can bring in other investors to share the risk with us."
After hearing Mr. Zhao’s words, Lu Sijia finally responded: "Well, since everyone has expressed their opinions, I’ll share mine. The reason I’m optimistic about this drama is for two reasons. First, there are currently few urban romance dramas of this type in the market, but last year, a similar TV series called ’Dear You’ was a big hit, and you probably watched it, it achieved very good ratings and a considerable yield. Second, the cost of this drama is relatively low, I’ve done preliminary calculations before, with the highest budget being 8 million. So, I think our company can completely independently produce this drama and make a good start. Of course, whether this project can be initiated in the end, it still needs the boss’s decision."
After Lu Sijia finished speaking, everyone’s eyes turned to Chen Feng at the center.
As for everyone’s gaze, Chen Feng remained calm. After all, he has experienced several years of career training, moreover he is now the company’s boss, so he is full of confidence.
However, he did not act like a boss, nor did he deliberately keep people guessing, saying directly: "I agree to initiate the project. Since Fengmang Film and Television Company was established, we definitely need to produce our own film and television works quickly, otherwise there is no point for our company to exist. As for the risk, it’s definitely there, but I trust Sister Lu’s vision. So, this risk is worth taking. I can provide ten million for this. The production must be sophisticated, and if it’s not enough at the ti, I can consider adding more, but the quality must be guaranteed."
This project will be handed over to Sister Lu to be in full charge. Uncle Zhao, if you’re interested, you can take up the title of art director for this project. ngting, you’ll be the financial director for this project. Sister Lu here together with the planning departnt must quickly co up with a plan, then make a budget with the finance departnt.
Alright, the focus of everyone’s work from now on will be on this project. The company needs to work together to do it well. This is our company’s first official project, it definitely has to succeed and make a big splash."
Everyone, after hearing this, was energized and nodded in agreent. As Chen Feng said, it’s the company’s first project, it must be done well, as it concerns the future developnt of the company and also everyone’s imdiate interests, it can’t be sloppy.
After the eting ended, Chen Feng and Lu Sijia stayed behind alone.
"Thank you for your trust, boss. Originally, I thought you might have reservations."
Lu Sijia spoke first, feeling a bit moved by Chen Feng’s trust in her. Especially since Chen Feng previously expressed to her that this script suits his taste and seems tasteless.
Unexpectedly, Chen Feng still supported him.
"Although I’m personally not very fond of this script, I am not a professional. You are the professional. Since I chose you as the general manager of the company, I definitely have to give you enough trust. Let’s start with this TV series."
"Alright, boss, I will definitely not let you down." Lu Sijia promised with a serious face.
Chen Feng laughed and said: "No need to be so serious. I kept you behind mainly to talk about my suggestions for the male and female leads. If there are no accidents, the male lead will be Gong Yi, and the female lead Luo Yingying. These two will be our company’s top priorities in the future. The other three will have to be put behind, especially Wang Shujuan, whose contract ends in a few months. If she wants to leave, let her. Also, although our company isn’t very much in need of additional talent right now, if we really find so good prospects, we shouldn’t hesitate to sign them. Regarding this, you and Hu Rui can discuss."
"Okay, boss." Lu Sijia quickly agreed.
Chen Feng continued to chat with her about so of the company’s matters, then ended the separate conversation with her.
He currently trusts Lu Sijia a great deal, for a very simple reason — he believes in his luck.
Since fate allowed him to luckily find her to be the company’s general manager, she won’t disappoint him.
This is not because he is overly confident in himself or in Lu Sijia, but because he trusts fate with his luck.
After the eting, Chen Feng didn’t intend to stay at the company.
Coming out of the conference room, walking through the public office area, along the way company employees stood up to greet him respectfully.
Chen Feng also nodded amicably to them with a smile.
When he was working before, he was also like this, just didn’t expect the transition of roles to happen so quickly.
Regarding this, Chen Feng didn’t feel uncomfortable. Different stages of life have different circumstances, face them calmly, don’t be happy with material gains or saddened by personal losses.
Though he’s only thirty years old, he has also experienced life and death, so his mind has beco almost as mature as soone in their seventies or eighties, plus he has wealth which naturally enhances his deanor and temperant.
Chen Feng walked out of the company relaxedly, it was about ten o’clock in the morning, not hurrying to go back, he left the International Trade Building and walked towards East Lake.
The International Trade Building is not far from East Lake, though East Lake is large, with many comrcial areas along the lake, and it’s a ten-minute drive from Red Villa Bay.
Chen Feng hasn’t co to this area much before, but the scenery along the lake is beautiful, so he decided to stroll around casually. The only blemish is that he doesn’t have a beautiful woman accompanying him, the three won with close relationships are all working at the company for him.
Thus, it’s a rare temporary return to singlehood, feeling relaxed and unrestrained.
With an enjoyable and relaxed mood, Chen Feng walked to the edge of East Lake, looking at the scenery along the lake, watching the pedestrians and tourists coming and going, talking and laughing, even though it’s a cloudy day, he felt the beauty of the world.
...
About ten minutes ago, Yang Wenqi was interviewing for a dia editor position at Fengmang Film and Television Company, with a salary starting at six thousand, plus social insurance and housing fund, the most important thing being al allowance and accommodation, which is currently what she needs the most, and also relatively matches her professional background.
She majored in Broadcast Journalism, originally planning to pursue a career in hosting, after all, she is quite beautiful, which is a considerable advantage, but unfortunately, her grades in professional courses were average, and her university scores over four years weren’t very good, eventually barely graduating.
Of course, if she were willing to compromise her appearance a little bit, it’s still relatively easy to find an internship opportunity at a TV station. But she isn’t the kind of shallow and short-sighted woman, she has always protected herself well, and it’s certainly impossible to sell herself for a re internship opportunity.
She repeatedly rejected the "help" from those n who had been eyeing her beauty, ultimately she could only constantly interview for jobs that slightly matched her professional background, while avoiding potential exploitations and even direct coercion.
Thus, even though she got her graduation certificate for two to three months already, she still didn’t have a job.
Further worsening the situation, her father’s company went bankrupt and disappeared, her mother, being a housewife, could only hide back to her maiden ho and cry every day, leaving her without familial financial support, only her second uncle who has always cared for her still occasionally gives her so living expenses, otherwise she wouldn’t even have the basic money for living.
Several tis, she almost let go of her principles to find a wealthy second-generation, for instance the few from school who pursued her before, she could totally choose one she finds agreeable and then date him, then she would have no worries about food and clothing.
But in the end, she held on, because she knows what the most valuable asset is for a beautiful woman, even if she decides to sell, it can’t be for a re wealthy second-generation, it least has to be a good buyer willing to pay high price.
In fact, while she has been looking for a job these days, she has been quietly waiting for the potential good buyer to appear.
For example, the last ti she had an encounter with Chen Feng at Lai Man Cafe, which is a place she goes from ti to ti, the purpose is not truly to drink coffee, but to emulate Jiang Taigong fishing, waiting for soone to take the bait.
