Chapter 835: The Heartless Man
As if to get revenge on Chen Fan, Mo Siyu ordered two large meal sets.
Chen Fan quietly reminded her that they couldn't finish it all, but Mo Siyu said she was about to become Chen Fan's subordinate.
She had to take advantage of the time before Chen Fan became her boss to fleece him thoroughly.
Hearing this, Chen Fan just smiled and said nothing more.
When the meal sets arrived, Mo Siyu ate only a little before rubbing her stomach and saying she was full.
Chen Fan looked at the 3 burgers and a large pile of chicken wings and fries left on the table, and said with a wry smile:
"You're deliberately setting me up, aren't you?"
Mo Siyu stuck out her tongue playfully: "It's fine. If we can't finish it, we'll pack it up later."
"Hurry up and eat. When you're done, I'll talk to you about my work."
Chen Fan took a burger and took a bite.
"Let's talk while we eat."
"Have you finished handing over all your work there?"
Mo Siyu nodded: "Mm-hmm. This time I'm back for good and won't be going back."
"You don't know, when I resigned, our supervisor even tried to keep me. Said they wanted to focus on training me."
"Hmph. If it weren't for your insistent invitation, I wouldn't have come back."
"You have to give me a raise."
"Sister, you haven't even started working yet, and you're already asking the boss for a raise?"
The two bantered and joked for a few sentences, then began to discuss business.
The main reason Mo Siyu had asked Chen Fan out this time was to inquire about Chen Fan's work arrangements for her, so she could be fully prepared.
Mo Siyu also had a detailed discussion with Chen Fan about the process and creative ideas for recording variety shows, as well as the preliminary preparation work.
It had to be said that after a few years of experience abroad, Mo Siyu had indeed grown a lot.
When it came to talking about some of the production processes for foreign shows, she could go on and on for half a day.
Moreover, when talking about Chen Fan's upcoming 《Idol Boys》, Mo Siyu even took out a pre-written memo.
It detailed what she considered to be some of the preliminary preparation work.
Chen Fan took the memo and flipped through a few pages, and knew he hadn't made a mistake in finding her.
Mo Siyu was indeed professional.
"How many people can you give me?" Mo Siyu suddenly asked.
Chen Fan thought for a moment and replied: "I'm not sure exactly, but I'll allocate a batch of employees from Feifan Media for you, and then recruit some from society."
"I think we need at least 100 people to start with, to set up the team framework first."
Mo Siyu shook her head: "Not enough."
"Not enough?" Chen Fan was surprised.
Mo Siyu explained: "A professional variety show isn't just the front-stage hosts, directors, and staff we see on TV. There are actually more behind-the-scenes staff."
"Photographers, directing team, production group, artist coordinators, publicity group, on-site group, post-production, video editing... and so on."
"Ordinary work can be handled by new employees, but most of the behind-the-scenes work must be done by professional, experienced staff."
Chen Fan explained: "The 100 employees I'm allocating to you initially are to set up a team framework first."
"When the time comes, the company will rent a whole floor of a building for you to work in. As for those professional talents you mentioned, like directing group, photography group, and so on, I've thought about it. It's probably not realistic to recruit them from scratch. We'll poach people directly."
"Poach? From where?"
"From major TV stations."
Chen Fan said with confidence: "When the time comes, I'll give you authority. You take people to poach from the hottest TV stations across the country. Whatever talent you need, find professionals in that field and ask if they're willing to switch jobs."
"As long as they're willing to come over, we'll double their salary."
Chen Fan didn't believe it. Waving money around to poach people, how could they not get talent?
"Oh, and pay special attention to Mango TV. They just produced 《Super Girl》， so they have relevant experience. If possible, poach the entire team directly."
Mo Siyu stared blankly at Chen Fan.
"If we do it your way, it's going to cost a lot of money."
Chen Fan smiled "modestly."
"It's fine. No need to save money for me."
"I have... quite a lot of money."
Mo Siyu stared at Chen Fan for a long time before sighing:
"So this is what it feels like to be a big boss?"
"Having money to poach people is just so domineering."
However, looking at the guy in front of her wolfing down a burger, Mo Siyu really couldn't associate Chen Fan with a super-rich tycoon.
After chatting with Chen Fan for about an hour, seeing that he had actually finished 3 burgers and was still going to eat fries,
Mo Siyu couldn't hold back anymore, "How can you eat so much? Aren't you afraid of getting stuffed?"
Chen Fan glared: "Who told you to order so much? If you don't eat it, of course I have to eat it."
Mo Siyu was speechless: "Please. Is that necessary? You're a big boss, you know."
Chen Fan said seriously: "A big boss's money doesn't grow on trees, you know. Besides, wasting is shameful. Didn't your teacher teach you that when you were little?"
Mo Siyu directly raised her hand to her forehead, completely defeated.
Coming out of McDonald's, Mo Siyu asked Chen Fan when she could start work.
Chen Fan thought for a moment and said after the Lantern Festival. Mo Siyu nodded. She had been fired up by Chen Fan's vision for the variety show and was now full of enthusiasm.
"Where are you going? I'll drive you there," Chen Fan asked.
Mo Siyu shook her head: "No need. I'll just take a taxi."
Chen Fan was about to say something when he was interrupted by a voice from behind.
"Siyu?"
"It really is you."
Chen Fan turned around in confusion, and saw a young man walk out of the hot pot restaurant next door.
This guy was wearing a suit, tall and thin, quite handsome, except his hair was slicked back, looking like a pretty boy.
When Mo Siyu saw this guy, she obviously froze for a moment, then her expression changed slightly.
"It really is you. I thought I had mistaken someone else just now."
This guy walked over to the two of them, smiling as he looked Mo Siyu up and down.
"I heard you went abroad to study? When did you come back?"
"I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a few years, you've become even more beautiful."
Mo Siyu frowned: "What are you doing here?"
The young man smiled: "I'm eating here."
As he spoke, his gaze swept over Chen Fan beside her.
"This is... aren't you going to introduce us?"
Mo Siyu didn't look happy: "Why should I introduce you?"
The young man wasn't angry, he just smiled and shook his head.
"Siyu, you're still mad at me."
"Even though we broke up, we can still be civil. We dated for over 2 years in university after all."
Mo Siyu turned her head away, letting out a cold laugh.
You have the nerve to say that.
Dating you for over 2 years is the thing this lady regrets most in her life.
The young man smiled as he stared at Chen Fan, sizing him up with an appraising gaze.
He seemed to think Chen Fan didn't pose a threat to him.
So he smiled and extended his hand, revealing the golden Rolex on his wrist.
"Hello. I'm Gao Mingqiu, Siyu's ex-boyfriend from university."
Chen Fan hesitated for a moment, then reached out his hand.
"Chen Fan."
