For instance, if a certain department in the company expanded and needed more space, they might request a portion of another department's area. She would need to inspect and sign off on it.

Even things like transportation arrangements and wages and benefits required her to review and sign off on them.

Actually, if it were the old team, there wouldn't be so much to handle. A trustworthy administrator would take care of everything.

But now, it was a new team.

Yang Rou was serious and responsible by nature.

So it made her especially tired, even delaying the new variety show quite a bit.

And lately, her biggest headache was the company's car rental situation....

Generally speaking, as long as it's a mid-sized company, they would own one or two vehicles.

After all, the boss needs a car for travel and leisure. Executives need cars to go to meetings and business trips. The vehicles don't just represent the company's image; they're also a convenience.

But... Chenlu Film Company was a startup, still new with limited funds that had all been poured into the first project.

So they had not purchased any cars.

Previously, to facilitate travel for Chen Yan and Lu Man, Yang Rou had the administration contact a rental service to lease some cars for a few months as a temporary solution.

However, the rental cars were not only expensive but also of mediocre models. Sometimes going to meetings felt somewhat embarrassing, and it even made business negotiations difficult.

Furthermore, since there was only one car rented, but several people in the company needed to use it, scheduling became cumbersome, which Yang Rou found inconvenient.

Sitting behind her desk, Yang Rou looked at the cost detail report for the new quarter's car rental brought by the administration, feeling a bit lost in thought.

"Maybe... I should discuss with my boss about buying two or three company cars?"

As soon as the idea emerged, it took root in Yang Rou's mind.

After all, the company had changed a lot since its inception. One blockbuster film directly boosted the company's profits to over a hundred million for the half-year.

Although the money hadn't been accounted for yet, it wasn't as tight as before.

Thinking this way, Yang Rou couldn't help but send a document to the administration, instructing them to investigate the models and prices of company cars used by peer film companies, then provide her with a few options. She was prepared to buy cars, no longer wanting to rent.

The efficiency of Chenlu Film Company's new office was still very high. It took less than two hours to provide Yang Rou with the relevant data and proposals. After considering the car models used by her previous company and checking the internet to ensure no issues, she grabbed the materials and went out to have a chat with Chen Yan.

She was quite satisfied with the proposal from the administration. A total of three cars: one around 1.2 million yuan and the other two around 400,000 yuan each. Altogether, 2 million yuan.

For the current state of the company, it was just right.

Chen Yan would use the more expensive car for business trips or important meetings with partners.

For everyday use, the two 400,000 yuan cars would be sufficient. With two cars rotating and one as a backup, the company's transportation problem would be completely solved.

Once the new variety show's planning was complete and filming started, these cars would be perfectly adequate.

...

Meanwhile, at Chenyu Game Company.

Chen Yan was in the clay sculpture room with Yu Qiao Qiao, molding clay figures and "brainwashing" her at the same time.

Chen Yan said, "Qiao Qiao, once this game really takes off, how about I give you a gift?"

As Yu Qiao Qiao molded a small clay figure, she asked without much attention, "What kind of gift?"

Tentatively, Chen Yan said, "How about a house?"

Yu Qiao Qiao suddenly looked up at Chen Yan, unhappy, "Chen Yan, why are you reverting to your old ways again?"

Chen Yan chuckled awkwardly, then said, "I'm not. I just think if this game is successful, you're definitely a key contributor! So, I wanted to give you a reward."

Yu Qiao Qiao shook her head as she continued to mold the clay figure, speaking obediently, "I don't want it. Sister Nuan Nuan said I shouldn't just accept things from men."

"And besides, the company's bonus is already quite generous. I've saved quite a bit of money. I'm living quite well now."

"I do want a house, but I can buy it myself."

Yu Qiao Qiao's response didn't come as a surprise to Chen Yan.

If Boss Qiao Qiao accepted gifts as easily as Sister Man Man, she wouldn't be Boss Qiao Qiao.

Chen Yan, who already had a plan, said with a smile, "Don't be hasty in refusing."

"I've thought quite deeply about giving you a house."

"First of all, you inspired me to make this game, right?"

Yu Qiao Qiao nodded.

Chen Yan continued, "So, according to our company's policy, you could actually be considered the initiator of the game project. You rightfully deserve a share of the game's profits."

Yu Qiao Qiao looked at Chen Yan with a hint of confusion, "I don't remember that being a policy."

Chen Yan, without blushing, said, "We just decided on it these past few days."

Yu Qiao Qiao: ??

Chen Yan took out his phone, then opened up a document that was officially stamped and showed it to Yu Qiao Qiao.

According to the document.

Chen Yan, aiming to boost employee morale and enthusiasm, had promised that if employees came up with solid game design plans or innovative game ideas, they could write them down and submit them to Tank, the head of the game planning department.

With his approval, it could then be submitted to Chen Yan for secondary review.

Once approved, an internal team could be recruited to form an incubation group for new game development.

The initiator of a new game gets a certain percentage of the project's shares, as do other founding team members. Upon the game's release, in addition to bonuses, they would also receive dividends and related material rewards based on their shares.

This internal incubation mechanism is common among large gaming companies and internet conglomerates, so it wasn't a surprise to Yu Qiao Qiao.

So after looking at it, she didn't find anything alarming.

Perhaps the only problem was... they had included her in it.

After reading the document, Yu Qiao Qiao shook her head, continuing to mold her small clay figure, then said, "Chen Yan. Although it was my inspiration, I just provided an image. The main creative work, planning, and all was done by you."

"So, if we were really to pinpoint it, you would be the project initiator."

Hearing Yu Qiao Qiao's words, Chen Yan inwardly chuckled.

Indeed, she was the Boss Qiao Qiao he knew. But this didn't deviate from his plan.

So, he smoothly replied, "What you said is right. I also feel that I am actually the project initiator."

Hearing Chen Yan admit to it himself, Yu Qiao Qiao looked at him curiously, blinking her beautiful big eyes.

Chen Yan coughed once and said, "So... I've set aside 20% of the project's dividend shares for myself. No matter how much money this game makes, I get 20% of the dividends."

"If this game earns 2 billion, then I would get 400 million."

Saying this, he shifted his tone, "But you see, this idea came from you after all. I'm not an ungrateful person, so I thought since I'm getting so much, I should rightfully share a portion with you."

"What do you think?"

Yu Qiao Qiao, observing Chen Yan's earnest expression, opened her mouth but momentarily didn't know how to argue.

'It all sounds so reasonable...'

'But something feels off...'

'Am I being duped by this scoundrel again?'

Yu Qiao Qiao's nose wrinkled slightly, feeling that her slow wits couldn't quite keep up with Chen Yan's logic.

Meanwhile, Chen Yan, watching Yu Qiao Qiao's reaction, appropriately added, "Don't think it's just for you. I'm the same with Sister Man Man."

"You know 'Heartbreak 23 Days' made a lot of money, right?"

Yu Qiao Qiao snapped back to reality with an "Mhm."

Chen Yan said, "I gave Sister Man Man a villa as a reward."

Yu Qiao Qiao's mouth fell open in surprise.

Chen Yan continued, "But I also took several tens of millions in dividends for myself."

Yu Qiao Qiao blinked, finally catching on, and skeptically said, "You're lying. That money was already yours. Isn't giving it to yourself just moving it from one hand to the other?"

Chen Yan argued, "Don't speak nonsense. The company's money is the company's. Personal money is personal. You can't mix the two."

"Besides, I'm not just taking cash. I plan to spend all of it."

Yu Qiao Qiao asked in confusion, "Spend it all?"

"Yes, exactly," Chen Yan affirmed, timing his invitation perfectly, "I'm planning to take next Friday off, spend freely, and splurge all these millions. So if you're free, you're welcome to come along and watch."

"That way, you'll believe I'm truly following the 'rules'!"

"I treat every employee equally."

"It's just that you all are so outstanding, which is why you receive such substantial rewards."

"And I, being more outstanding than you, get even more."

"Your hearts are too small. Rewards should be spent generously!"

Yu Qiao Qiao opened her mouth to question again, but found... there seemed to be no point to question.

She wracked her slow brain, pondering for quite some time, and finally only said, "Well... Okay then. I'll join you that day to see how you reward yourself."

"And I, being more outstanding than you, get even more."

"Your hearts are too small. Rewards should be spent generously!"
