Chapter 766: Who Is Speaking the Truth?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Tan Jingi did not doubt that everyone respected Tan Mo.

From Xu Das.h.i.+ down to the lowliest runner, no one in Kefeng Films did not view her as their future boss.

All the bad apples, such as Manager Wu and Manager Liang, were no longer around.

Managers Xu and w.a.n.g were thoroughly cowed and knew to toe the line. They were cowards, but smart ones at that.

With those two subdued, Tan Jingi did not need to worry too much. Besides, he was still around to hold the fort if trouble stirred.

Everyone at Kefeng Films knew to treat Tan Mo with respect.

Even if Tan Mo went to Kefeng Films alone, he could rest a.s.sured, knowing nothing untoward would happen to her.

Still, Tan Jingi decided to drive Tan Mo over on the second day.

Tan Jinsheng accompanied them in the car.

The two of them did not follow Tan Mo into Kefeng Films.

They did not feel comfortable allowing Tan Mo to go unescorted.

‘When they sent Tan Mo off, the two saw s.h.i.+ Shulei waiting at the door.

s.h.i.+ Shulei walked over upon seeing their car.

“Director Tan, Teacher Tan,” s.h.i.+ Shulei greeted politely.

Tan Jingi and Tan Jinsheng got out of the car to return the greeting. “We’re just dropping off Tan Mo today; we won’t be heading in. We are amateurs in the variety show business, so our partic.i.p.ation wouldn’t amount to much,” Tan Jingi said.

He did not want anyone pointing fingers and saying they were adding salt and pepper where none was due.

s.h.i.+ Shulei was a little surprised.

After all, this variety show was related to Tan Jinsheng.

Seeing the Tan brothers leave him without hesitation, s.h.i.+ Shulei gained a newfound respect for the two.

It was rare to meet those with such temperaments.

s.h.i.+ Shulei did not say anything more. Posing a suggestion, he said, “We have a cafe and some places for leisure in Fefeng Film’s main building so the company’s employees can relax after work. If you two are interested, you can go and take a look. If you don’t feel comfortable using the company’s facilities,

there is another cafe down the road. It’s on your right. They serve decent food, and the atmosphere is excellent. *

Tan Jingi nodded in thanks. He would wait with Tan Jinsheng in the cafe outside.

There were always people coming and going at Kefeng Films, and some people might get certain ideas if they saw them frequenting the premises so often. Rumours abounded these days…

Once he was sure Tan Mo had entered the building with s.h.i.+ Shulei, Tan Jingi parked the car and headed for the cafe outside with Tan Jinsheng.

Instead of the big meeting they previously used, Tan Mo headed straight for the variety show production department’s offices.

Several offices divided the different duties of each branch of the variety show production department, with each section subdivided into smaller production teams.

The production teams were the same save for a few minor differences in skill between personnel, but this allowed them to fill in for any other team requiring a.s.sistance.

After they completed this variety show, they would immediately begin the next.

However, if the present teams did well and the variety show received good ratings, the same team would produce second, third, and subsequent seasons.

It was not only a matter of efficiency but also reliability.

Each team had a clear division of labour, and everyone had a role to play. No two individuals shared the same role in a team, be they editors, post-production staff, or runners.

It also made discussions more convenient since each team reported to a sectional head, who would then collate and put forward the combined items up for debate.

On the other hand, smaller matters could be settled within each team without needing intervention from the higher-ups.

Every team had their works.p.a.ce allocated to them, so there was never any issue of teams fighting for s.p.a.ce in the many meeting rooms in the company.

s.h.i.+ Shulei took Tan Mo to the variety show production team’s main office.

They pa.s.sed by many employees of the department along their way there.

There was not anyone who did not know Tan Mo.

‘When they saw Tan Mo, apart from greeting her, they would ask in pa.s.sing why she was following s.h.i.+ Shulei.

Could it be… that s.h.i.+ Shulei’s team was about to make a big move?

‘The moment the thought crossed their minds, they raced off to their respective offices to relay the news.

“Director Lin! Our future boss is following s.h.i.+ Shulei to his team’s office.”

“Boss, s.h.i.+ Shulei has latched onto the future boss’s thigh. He’s going to make a big move.”

“Director Chen…”

Similar situations repeated themselves in every office under the variety show production department.

Of course, Tan Mo was none the wiser.

s.h.i.+ Shulei, who was more perceptive than most, could guess what was going on in the minds of his colleagues.

He did not care. In any case, he had already latched onto the future boss’s thigh.

One could say it was part of his ability.

It was their fault for being one step too slow.

Nevertheless, the role his team was in charge of played well to his interests.

s.h.i.+ Shulei’s team was in charge of the planning segment of the upcoming singing variety show. It was a good match for the future boss’s second brother, and it gave his team an edge over the rest.

If anything, it demonstrated his intelligence and foresight in picking the task his team would manage.

If not for his suggestion, Kefeng Films would not have considered producing a singing variety show, and he would not have had the chance to board the future boss’s s.h.i.+p!

Inthe end, he still had the last laugh.

s.h.i.+ Shulei stood tall with a straight back, evidently proud of his prescience.

He was confident that no one but him would clinch the executive director position in the upcoming variety show.

No one else could succeed but him!

Tan Mo: “…”

She did not know what s.h.i.+ Shulei was thinking, but it was enough to cause his demeanour to take a 180-degree turn.

He seemed extraordinarily confident, even proud.

She had discovered that s.h.i.+ Shulei was a person who liked to imagine things.

He could come up with plenty of fancy ideas with the smallest of sparks.

Even if no one said anything, he would still be able to think of something.

Tan Mo wondered what he was trying to come up with now.

Perhaps, it was because of this trait that made him particularly suited for planning a variety show…

Both of them arrived at the office of s.h.i.+ Shulei’s group, neither of them privy to the other’s thoughts.

On the office door, there was a sign that read: Variety Show Production Group One’.

Other than Liu Jingfu, with whom she was already acquainted, all the other members of s.h.i.+ Shulei’s team were unfamiliar to her.

The office was fairly large. A quick scan informed Tan Mo that 30 individuals could easily work within with room to spare.

“A variety show, especially an extremely popular one, will sometimes have more than 100 staff members working on the show’s contents,” s.h.i.+ Shulei explained, “But most of the manpower is necessary for relatively trivial things.”

“It’s just us for now, but we’ll transfer more people over from the other teams if you feel we need more hands,” s.h.i.+ Shulei said.

Tan Mo nodded.

s.h.i.+ Shulei clapped his hands to attract everyone’s attention, “May I have your attention, please? The meeting shall convene once everyone is ready. Please welcome Tan Mo, Teacher Tan. Teacher Tan was the one who came up with the plan for this version of ‘I Sing’.”

Everyone enthusiastically clapped their hands when they heard s.h.i.+ Shulei’s words.

“Teacher Tan, you’re amazing!”

“With this proposal, our program will crush Singing Voice!”

“As expected of our future boss.”

Everyone: *…”

Who let the cat out of the bag?

Although everyone was trying to curry favour with her, it was true that her proposal was pretty good; otherwise, no amount of flattery would have turned trash into gold. Tan Mo was the future boss of Kefeng Films. It would not hurt them to stay in her good books.

s.h.i.+ Shulei wanted to make a name for himself in front of Tan Mo and leave her with a good impression of him.. Only then would he secure his future under her presidency!
