Chapter 42 Expansion, Arrangements
Chapter 42 Expansion, Arrangements
It was a simple Lunar New Year, and this year there was even less to do as we didn't return to the village to pay respects to our ancestors.
In addition, there weren't many relatives, at most just a few friends, including her mother, Liu Yulan.
Chen Keke was interested in going to visit Chen Yao, but the problem was that it was a bit far away.
It's still not very convenient not having a car!
"Otherwise, if we buy a car, Mom can consider getting a driver's license."
Chen Jingyuan did offer a suggestion.
Having a car would be much more convenient, but unfortunately, Liu Yulan immediately rejected that idea.
"The car costs tens of thousands; buying it would be a waste."
"It's only useful in winter; otherwise, a small electric scooter is better."
...
Liu Yulan refused the offer without hesitation.
In the end, Chen Keke was still unable to go to Chen Yao's place and could only chat with him via WeChat.
However, the conversation mainly revolved around art school entrance exams and some drama troupe-related matters.
Of course, there's also Meng Ziyi, Chen Yao's good friend.
Chen Keke was unaware that Chen Yao, Meng Ziyi, and her own brother were actually quite familiar with each other.
Time flew by and it was already the sixth day of the lunar new year!
Just like last year, Chen Jingyuan is preparing to return. First of all, the second season of Go Fighting! will start filming after the 15th.
We had already contacted the person before the Lunar New Year and arranged for Huang Bai to make time for it.
Chen Jingyuan has almost finished communicating with Yan Min and even arranged a special program for Dilraba.
For Dilraba, an episode only takes one day.
Even with some preparation, it will only take two days at most.
After finishing filming "Go Fighting!", he can join the cast of "Goodbye My Princess".
After the first season of "Go Fighting!" aired, it became very popular.
Even appearing in just one episode can greatly boost Dilraba's fame.
Dilraba Dilmurat was a guest on "Heart Signal" and subsequently trended on several social media platforms after the show aired.
The number of Weibo followers increased by more than 200,000, and the number of casual viewers also increased.
"Brother, please let me know sooner that I'm joining the film crew."
Before Chen Jingyuan was about to leave, Chen Keke gave him instructions again and again with an expectant look on her face.
It's clear that this person really wants to play a role.
Chen Jingyuan always felt that his younger sister's cheerful personality had changed into that of a different person.
Perhaps she was led astray by Meng Ziyi, but considering her sister's past life as a video blogger, it's understandable.
Generally speaking, video bloggers who carry a recording camera wherever they go are bound to be more outgoing and bold.
Some introverted people might feel awkward even talking to themselves in front of a camera.
Perhaps this is the 'true face' of his younger sister, but such a personality is quite nice.
Perhaps poverty in the past limited the expression of one's personality!
Previously, Chen Jingyuan was still wondering if his younger sister could become famous, but her personality seemed more suited to variety shows.
If all else fails, becoming a host or a regular guest on variety shows is also a good option.
Chen Jingyuan didn't think much about this matter; he wasn't in a hurry about his sister's situation at the moment.
We need to let this student finish the second semester of their junior year before we can start making arrangements.
Pengcheng Penguin Building
Chen Jingyuan took a red envelope from President Sun Zhonghuai to start the workday.
There wasn't much money inside, only twenty yuan, but it was a custom in the Guangdong and Guangxi regions.
To wish for good luck!
Immediately afterwards, Chen Jingyuan gathered many people from the studio.
The additional personnel were also transferred in on the first day of the new year.
The Tianhe Studio now has more than twenty members, who stood in two rows in front of Chen Jingyuan.
You could tell that these new employees were all very excited.
Tianhe Studio wasn't just established a year ago when it didn't have much of a reputation.
It's a department that many people want to join at Tencent Video.
Last year, the project bonuses and year-end bonuses at Tianhe Studio amounted to several dozen months' worth of work.
"New employees, please introduce yourselves from left to right."
Chen Jingyuan spoke first!
These employees were selected by him after reviewing the materials.
Their abilities are all quite good; some have been in other departments for many years and are still new hires.
"Director, I'm Yang Zhidong, who just joined the company last year."
"Director, I'm Guo Jie, transferred from the variety show department."
...
After many people spoke up, Chen Jingyuan divided them into groups.
Let the original staff in the studio mentor these people first!
Currently, the company has been divided into three groups, with Huang Yuanming, Wang Tingting, and Jiang Qiaodan, three veteran employees, serving as group leaders respectively.
As for Xiao Qiao, she is currently working as Liu Yang's assistant.
After assigning these personnel, the next step is to give them tasks.
"Liu Yang, you'll temporarily work with Lao Huang's group."
"Responsible for preparing the TV series 'Forensic Doctor Qin Ming'."
"Sister Jiang, your group will temporarily be working on the variety show 'Go Fighting!'"
"Sister Wang, your group will start preparing for the 'East Palace' project from now on."
"I will focus on the 'Goodbye My Princess' project, but that doesn't mean I won't pay attention to other projects."
"Did you all hear me clearly!?"
Chen Jingyuan quickly gave instructions to each group.
The crew of "Forensic Doctor Qin Ming" is probably the busiest.
Although the novel's rights have been acquired, there are still many things to do, such as adapting it and finding a director.
The easiest group should be the one from "Go Fighting!", as they only need to follow Yan Min.
As for the "Goodbye My Princess" project, he was personally involved!
"I heard you clearly, Director!"
"I understand the instructions."
Liu Yang and the others all spoke up, but there was an undeniable tension in their voices.
In particular, Liu Yang and Huang Yuanming were practically in charge of a project on their own.
But for both of them, it was also an opportunity!
If the project succeeds, they will definitely have a significant advantage in terms of promotion and bonuses.
Chen Jingyuan originally planned to create a new variety show, but he could have waited until Jiang Jie's group finished with Extreme Challenge before making preparations.
This year there are an unusually large number of projects, so the entire studio must be extremely busy.
Of course, this is a good thing for many people in the studio.
Whether they were transferred here or had only been with the company for a short time, they were all counting on these projects to produce results.
Chen Jingyuan was probably the most relaxed person in the entire studio.
At least Chen Jingyuan can mostly just talk; he doesn't need to do the legwork.
"Xiao Qiao, please compile the statistics and book the tickets to Yanjing for tomorrow."
"I need to talk to Director Wu and others about the 'East Palace' project the day after tomorrow."
Chen Jingyuan didn't forget to continue giving instructions, saying it was time for another business trip.
Before the Lunar New Year, both directors, Wu Jinyuan and Li Muge, had already accepted the invitation.
Preparations will begin after the New Year, but Chen Jingyuan still needs to communicate with them in advance.
"Yes, Director!"
Qiao Yujie immediately realized what was happening and replied.
After arranging everything, Chen Jingyuan took the completed project proposal to Sun Zhong for approval.
Once the approval process is complete, the funds will be transferred to Tianhe Studio's account. This process shouldn't take too long.
