Entertainment to the death, make a tokusatsu film that will crush the entire internet.

Yang Qian hasn't personally reviewed the financial statements in a long time.

It's not that he doesn't look at it; it's just that Su Xiaoran usually extracts the key data and makes it into a brief report, which he can grasp at a glance.

But today is the full review of the second quarter.

A thick stack of documents lay on the table, every page representing money.

He turned to the first page.

In the gaming sector, Honkai Impact 3rd's total revenue in Q2 reached ten figures.

Yang Qian's gaze lingered on that number for two seconds, making sure she hadn't miscounted the digits.

He read it again.

That's right.

Just take the game "Honkai Impact" as an example.

The revenue in a single quarter exceeded the total animation copyright revenue of the Land of Light for the entire previous year.

Liu Rui mentioned this in his last report.

The game's monetization design follows the principle of "light spending, heavy experience".

All paid features can be redeemed through activity points; there are no hard barriers.

At the time, some people were worried that this would sacrifice revenue.

The data is out now, so there's no need to worry.

The revenue curves for the animation and music sectors have risen steadily, with a small but persistent slope.

The long-tail effect of older works is reassuringly stable.

Even after being online for so long, Ultraman Tiga's monthly revenue sharing remains stable at eight figures.

The overseas licensing fees for CLANNAD even increased by 12 percent compared to the previous quarter.

I heard that the English-subtitled version has become popular again in Europe and America.

The growth momentum of new works is even stronger.

The first-week viewership figures for "Fate/Zero" and "Shugo Chara!" were surprisingly good.

Revenue from Ultraman Dyna merchandise sales increased along with viewership ratings.

The reports for the surrounding sectors are even longer.

The flagship store of the Land of Light has so many SKUs that a separate catalog is needed.

The collaboration between Cat and Shrimp Chips has reached its seventeenth restock.

Li Xiangyang of Xiangyang Food Factory sent a message last week saying that the factory's production line had never stopped.

Pre-orders for the Zeppeli family commemorative badge set exceeded expectations by more than three times.

Ma Qingshan, from Tianma Toy Factory, posted a photo on his WeChat Moments of himself squatting in the warehouse, packing toys by hand.

The caption reads: "It's already burned out..."

Yang Qian gave him a thumbs up.

He turned the last page, closed the folder, and leaned back in his chair.

"No wonder so many manufacturers are scrambling to make games."

Su Xiaoran was bringing in coffee when she heard this and smiled.

"Director Yang, you're making it sound like you've just discovered that games can make money."

"They know how to make money, but they don't know how to make money this way."

Yang Qian took the coffee and took a sip.

"However, no matter how much money games make, the core audience of animation and tokusatsu cannot be touched."

Yang Qian knew that animation and tokusatsu were the Land of Light's greatest strength.

Su Xiaoran nodded.

She was already used to Yang Qian's mindset that "you can earn anything, but you can't lose your core values."

Yang Qian put down her coffee cup and pondered for a moment.

"Now that the company's revenue has increased, employee benefits should also be increased accordingly."

Su Xiaoran immediately took out her tablet, ready to take notes at any moment.

She was very familiar with this rhythm.

Every time Director Yang says "it should be raised".

What follows is usually not a small-scale operation.

"This time, we're changing to accommodation."

Yang Qian remembered some things.

Before he was Director Yang of the Land of Light, not a representative, and not an industry benchmark.

He was just an ordinary worker, renting a place to live in an unfamiliar city.

I've stayed in shared rooms before.

The house was divided into five rooms by the sub-landlord, the living room was converted into a bedroom, and the kitchen was so small that you could barely turn around in it.

The walls were as thin as paper; he could hear every phone call from next door.

I've lived in a room with formaldehyde.

The place was just renovated and no one has lived there yet. The landlord is in a hurry to rent it out, and the windows haven't even been aired out for a few days.

During the first week after moving in, my throat hurt every morning when I woke up.

There was also a deposit of one month's salary plus three months' rent in advance; when he signed the contract, he took out all of his newly received salary.

When I moved out, the landlord pointed to the existing cracks in the wall and said they were newly installed, and that he wouldn't refund a single penny of my deposit.

He also joined a rental group, but the group wasn't updated with listings every day.

Avoid lightning strikes today...

Which building's subletter ran away? Which neighborhood's landlord raised the water and electricity fees again? Which real estate agency changed its name and is still ripping people off?

He thought back then that if one day he could be in charge.

He will make sure that those who work with him will no longer have to suffer like this.

"Director Yang?"

Su Xiaoran's voice brought him back to reality.

Yang Qian turned around, her expression returning to its usual calm.

"Contact Li Lin to arrange for the city's talent apartment project to rent the entire apartment under the company's name."

"Ten-year lease."

Su Xiaoran was stunned for a moment.

"ten years?"

"Um."

At 2 p.m. that day, Li Lin's phone was dialed.

After listening to Yang Qian explain her purpose on the phone, he remained silent for a moment.

"Director Yang, are you sure it's a whole rental? How many employees do you have now?"

"We have over 700 employees and interns, and that number will continue to grow. We'll rent 500 units first, and add more if that's not enough."

Five hundred sets? Ten years?

Li Lin was very surprised.

"This scale is no longer corporate welfare; it's a housing security project."

That's why I contacted you.

Li Lin took a deep breath.

"Okay, I'll report to my supervisor right away. Wait for me."

He didn't keep Yang Qian waiting for long.

The city's level of attention to this matter far exceeded expectations.

The talent apartment project was originally a welfare policy designed to support key enterprises in City A.

In the past, at most a few dozen units would be approved, with a lease term of three to five years.

The Land of Light has immediately set its sights on 500 sets and a ten-year application period, completely deviating from the conventional application framework.

But the leader's attitude was very clear.

批。

Not only must it be approved, but the process must be completed as quickly as possible.

The Land of Light is now the face of A City's cultural and creative industries.

It's a matter of face, and we can't delay.

The contract was signed at 6 p.m.

The Kingdom of Light leased five talent apartment buildings adjacent to the park at an agreed price. Each building has 20 floors and six units per floor.

The lease term is ten years, with priority for renewal upon expiration.

The rent is paid by the company, so employees bear no burden.

At 8:00 PM sharp, a notification popped up simultaneously on the WeChat accounts of all employees of the Kingdom of Light.

Title: "Notice Regarding the Upgrade of Accommodation Benefits for Employees of the Land of Light"

"In order to further improve the living conditions of employees and effectively reduce their housing burden, the company has decided to launch an employee accommodation benefits upgrade plan starting today."

The company has leased an entire building in the Talent Apartment Project in City A as staff dormitory for the Kingdom of Light.

Specifications are as follows: Single room, 30-35 square meters;

Independent kitchen and bathroom, brand-name furniture and appliances;

Residential water, electricity, and gas are all free of charge, except for water and electricity fees.

Eligibility: All current employees of the Land of Light, from department heads to cleaners and security guards, are eligible to apply.

Lease term: The initial contract can be up to ten years, and the lease can be renewed upon expiration.

Those who have rented their own accommodation but have not moved into the company dormitory can apply for a housing subsidy with their rental contract, with a maximum of NT$2,000 per person per month.

This notice is effective immediately upon issuance, and the application form has been simultaneously uploaded to WeChat Work.

After an initial moment of silence, the employee group chat exploded.

"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, what am I seeing? Am I seeing things???"

"A single room? 30 square meters? Separate kitchen and bathroom? And it's free???"

"No, did you guys see that sign? From supervisors to cleaning staff and security guards! Full coverage! Full! Coverage!"

"My lease expires next month, and last week the landlord messaged me saying he was going to raise it by 300 yuan. I thank you, landlord, you've forced me to live in a free house."

"Ten years, ten years of free accommodation, and you can even renew the lease after that. Isn't that basically... getting a house?"

"Not to mention housing allocation, this is better than the housing allocation conditions of many work units."

"With residential water, electricity, and gas, I'm finally free from being ripped off by the sub-landlord who charges me 1.5 yuan per kilowatt-hour."

"My company's benefits are so outrageous that I wonder if I'm dreaming! Someone pinch me!"

"I can never repay Director Yang's kindness (crying) 0/"

「杨导的恩情还不完（哭）+10086 0/0/0/0/0/」

Within three minutes, more than 500 messages were displayed.

The HR department urgently issued a supplementary explanation.

The application process is now open, and the first 200 applicants can check in next week.

Subsequent batches will be arranged in the order of application.

Please fill out the form in an orderly manner and avoid crowding.

But the phrase "don't crowd" clearly has no effect.

The HR manager later told Su Xiaoran that within five minutes of opening the form, the number of applications exceeded three hundred.

Old Zhou, the patrol security guard from the Land of Light, is also in the group.

He flipped through his old Android phone, read the notification three times, and then carefully nudged his colleague sitting next to him.

"Does the cleaning and security mentioned here include us?"

My colleague had obviously just heard the news and was very excited.

"Of course, we work in the Land of Light, and it says all employees on the board, so that includes us."

"Old Zhou, you're only just arriving. There will be more good things like this in the future."

Old Zhou fell silent.

He has been a security guard for over ten years, working for five different property management companies, none of which have ever asked him about his housing situation.

He rented a house in the suburbs, and he had to take three buses to get to and from get off work every day, a journey of one and a half hours each way.

What Lao Zhou didn't know was...

His employment was also approved by Yang Qian.

I've worked as a security guard for over a decade without ever encountering any security issues.

This attentiveness and sense of responsibility deserve better treatment.

Old Zhou held his phone, remaining silent for a long time.

At the same moment, in the office of the Land of Light.

Yang Qian looked at the messages scrolling wildly in the group chat, then flipped her phone over and placed it face down on the table.

Su Xiaoran stood to the side, unable to suppress the corners of her mouth.

"Director Yang, the group chat is exploding."

"HR said that over 400 application forms were received in just ten minutes. Many employees also posted short essays in the group chat, which I didn't even dare to read aloud."

Yang Qian waved her hand.

"The benefits are real and tangible, no need to read them out."

"Just keep an eye on the quality of accommodation. Have someone test the formaldehyde levels before the furniture is brought in. If it doesn't meet the standards, no one can live there."

"Let the property management check the water and electricity lines door-to-door; don't make employees move in and then have to do repairs."

"Also, install a suggestion box in each building's hallway so you can directly report any problems."

Su Xiaoran nodded seriously and quickly wrote it down on the tablet.

"Tickets for HTT Band's first show on their tour in Wuhu are finally on sale."

In front of the screen, an HTT fan is waiting for the final 10 seconds of the countdown.
