Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years

Before Li Haoyu left Fan Shengmei's place.

He even gave her a special look.

Because Fan Shengmei's condition is a bit strange.

Her eyes were wide open, but completely lifeless. In popular online parlance, they had a kind of clear-eyed stupidity.

It seems that what happened today had a significant impact on her.

It wasn't so obvious when Li Haoyu was around. Now that he's leaving, Fan Shengmei is showing her truest self when she's relaxed.

This made Li Haoyu find it a little funny.

Actually, putting aside the less-than-pleasant word "lover".

Fan Shengmei has finally gotten what she wanted.

This is a true leap in social class; she just needs some time to process it.

Li Haoyu took out his phone and sent a text message to the luxury goods salesperson, asking her to help him pick out a limited edition bag, which he would pick up when he had time.

He felt that this bag would help Fan Shengmei accept the current situation more quickly.

It also allows her to accept some new positions.

Although she had no choice but to accept it, the feeling of being proactive and being passive was always different.

Li Haoyu is never stingy in this regard.

What's more, Li Haoyu is making further progress in winning over the five beauties, which makes him very happy.

It's certainly nice to have a pure and innocent romance with Guan Juer.

But Li Haoyu was a man who had tasted the real thing, and being kept hanging like that all the time wasn't a good idea.

That's why he won over Fan Shengmei.

This is the only way to release some of that heat.

After all, Fan Shengmei's fighting power at thirty years old is far superior to that of a young girl like Qiu Yingying.

..........

Li Haoyu returned to the Snail Games office.

Qiu Yingying immediately ran out excitedly: "Why are you so late coming to the company?"

Li Haoyu glanced at the documents on the table and casually said, "I had some personal matters to take care of, and I just finished them."

Qiu Yingying casually replied with an "oh".

She seemed to be asking casually.

However, Li Haoyu took the initiative to speak.

He pointed to the documents on the table, then waved for Qiu Yingying to come over.

"I just praised you, but how did you take these meeting minutes? Can't you see such an obvious mistake?"

Qiu Yingying rushed over in a panic.

She looked at the spot Li Haoyu was pointing to and realized that she had indeed been careless and overlooked it.

Qiu Yingying stuck out her tongue a little shyly.

She also felt a little embarrassed, after all, she had been working for a long time and could no longer use lack of experience as an excuse.

Qiu Yingying's face turned red.

Li Haoyu glanced at Qiu Yingying.

He silently stood up from his chair and made room for her.

"You can't be this lazy. I only found out because I did. If Andy or Li Qianwen hadn't noticed, you would definitely have gotten a scolding."

"I'm starting to doubt whether I overestimated your abilities. Maybe you're really not suited for the job of chairman's secretary. How about I transfer you to another department?"

"For example, you should be able to handle tasks like organizing inventory in the logistics department."

Qiu Yingying heard Li Haoyu say this.

She panicked instantly.

Qiu Yingying's eyes widened, but she couldn't say a word.

Li Haoyu continued, "Do you have any other opinions?"

"have."

Qiu Yingying also came to her senses.

"You're really bullying me."

Qiu Yingying immediately said in a pitiful tone, "There have been so many things happening these past two days, and I'm new to this area. A few minor mistakes are forgivable."

Li Haoyu feigned surprise: "Is this your excuse for making a mistake? If you're not capable enough, I can find a bunch of people to replace you anytime."

Qiu Yingying pouted, "It's not easy for me either. I not only have to arrange your meeting schedule, but also worry about your lunch and dinner."

"In addition, those department managers kept bothering me because they couldn't find me, so I couldn't have a moment's rest, which led to me making mistakes in my busy schedule."

Li Haoyu smiled.

He then looked through their chat history again.

"Really? But I've never seen you contact me about work."

"This list is full of recommendations for the best TV dramas lately. How about we go to a Michelin-starred restaurant after work?"

"None of these seem to be important matters. Well, I'll transfer you to watch the warehouse; that will relieve you of your burden."

Qiu Yingying is still too young.

Seeing Li Haoyu's serious expression, she thought he was serious.

Qiu Yingying's voice was trembling with tears.

"I've really tried my best. I'm not as smart as you and Andy. I can't learn anything instantly."

"I've really worked hard to be a good secretary, and I don't know how many all-nighters I've stayed up all night."

"As for chatting with you about not having a job, can you blame me? I've urged you before, but you've never replied to my messages."

"After a while, I don't want to bother you anymore. How could you say that to me?"

When Qiu Yingying said these words, her voice rose by more than an octave.

Tears welled up in her eyes. "How could you say that to me?"

Li Haoyu just wanted to tease Qiu Yingying.

Li Haoyu just wanted to tease Qiu Yingying.

He quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Then the personnel department."

Qiu Yingying tilted her head back, still unwilling to respond.

Li Haoyu said, "Then my secretary will be fine."

Qiu Yingying remained silent.

Li Haoyu frowned. "At most, I'll go shopping with you tonight. Otherwise, you should go look after the warehouse."

Qiu Yingying whimpered for a long time.

"Then you can't go back on your word."

This time, she revealed a smug smile.

Li Haoyu pinched Qiu Yingying's round face.

He didn't expect her to be so clever this time.

Not only did I not get any bargains this time, I also had to go shopping with her.

Qiu Yingying pouted: "Stop pinching my cheeks. It's because you keep pinching my cheeks that they feel like they've gotten fatter."

Li Haoyu said "Oh," and added, "This isn't the time for you to owe me food. If you can't control your mouth, then so be it. And you always stubbornly insist that you have baby fat."

Being overweight is a sensitive topic for Qiu Yingying.

Li Haoyu's mention of her made her feel bad.

Qiu Yingying said helplessly, "I didn't want to eat so much either, but it's all your fault for taking me to such delicious restaurants. Besides, I've started running now, so I'll definitely lose weight soon."

Li Haoyu looked at Qiu Yingying's confident expression.

"It's good that you're aware of this, but I still don't have a high opinion of you."

Qiu Yingying said angrily, "Then you just wait and see."

After saying that, she stormed off.

...........

The office fell silent again.

Li Haoyu looked at the report again.

Andy's work ability far surpasses Qiu Yingying's.

The prices offered by investment banks have indeed been pushed to their absolute limit.

Andy's former employer is among them.

She just resigned last week.

But when he wielded the knife against Andy's former employer, he showed absolutely no mercy.

However, this is also in line with Andy's style of doing things, and it's no wonder that he poached Andy.

He has indeed been much more relaxed during this period.

This made Li Haoyu very happy; if he could win Andy over as soon as possible, the hot potato of the Snail Games CEO position would finally have a suitable candidate.

He can now retire peacefully behind the scenes and enjoy the blessings of having multiple wives.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Li Haoyu thought it was Qiu Yingying, who had just thrown a tantrum.

Therefore, it makes no sense.

But the knocking continued.

Li Haoyu said impatiently.

"Come in."

The person who walked in was actually Andy.

Li Haoyu was a little embarrassed and was just about to say something.

Andy then launched into a rapid-fire report.

"The progress of the listing is quite encouraging. The investment banks have approved our listing price, and we are now in the filing stage. If everything goes smoothly, the bell-ringing ceremony will be just around the corner."

Li Haoyu listened silently, without interrupting her.

He simply nodded, indicating his approval of Andy's work.

"Yes, just keep pushing forward at this pace. There's no need to rush, but make sure nothing goes wrong along the way."

"Going public isn't something you need to rush. As long as you have the strength to go public, it's like getting pregnant—it will happen quickly. There's no need to worry too much."

That's a bit of a statement...

Andy remained expressionless.

She secretly thought the metaphor was ridiculous.

Andy continued his work report.

"However, I found a serious problem with Snail Games: their attendance system is far too arbitrary, which is outrageous for a company that is about to go public."

"While I acknowledge that game companies need creativity, there's a reason behind the saying 'human nature is inherently evil,' and we can't place all our hopes on the self-discipline of our employees."

"I think we can improve in the following aspects..."

Li Haoyu listened patiently to Andy's suggestions for attendance reform.

He nodded and said.

"I basically agree with that; the company still needs a basic attendance system. However, Snail Games isn't a service-oriented company after all, so I'll handle this matter."

"Your current task is to ensure the smooth progress of the IPO. I will naturally arrange suitable people to handle the rest."

Li Haoyu still doesn't want Andy to get involved.

First: Andy's current prestige is insufficient. In fact, the fact that he put Andy in charge of the IPO has already caused some resentment among the leadership of Snail Games.

Li Haoyu didn't want to treat Andy as just a tool.

Although Andy's work ability is impeccable.

However, she is still far from being adept at interpersonal relationships.

Andy still needs more guidance, or she'll be qualified when she becomes a boss's wife.

Second: Andy is still a bit too arrogant.

She looked down on everyone in the entire snail game except herself.

This time, Andy reformed the attendance system; who knows what she'll target next? While following Andy's instructions isn't inherently bad, it's still quite unsettling.

This is similar to an emperor passing the throne to his crown prince.

I can give you the rights, but you can't take them from me.

Besides, even if he agreed, she would just take it for granted. A girl like Andy needs to be completely won over, otherwise she won't obediently listen to you.

I can give you the rights, but you can't take them from me.

Besides, even if he agreed, she would just take it for granted. A girl like Andy needs to be completely won over, otherwise she won't obediently listen to you.

Let's get her sorted out first.

Li Haoyu's gaze naturally fell on Andy.

Andy naturally sensed it too.

In fact, Andy is not ignorant of social etiquette.

If she wanted to, she could easily navigate any crowd.

She just didn't want to do that.

She now has mixed feelings about Li Haoyu.

On the one hand, Li Haoyu trusted her implicitly, even entrusting her with the most crucial task of launching Snail Games.

This can be described as being given a very important position.

In terms of power alone, Andy is already a regional governor.

But now... he's actually rejecting me.

Andy even sensed the fleeting coldness in Li Haoyu's eyes, and even felt a chill.

This is actually quite unreasonable.

Andy thought about it for a long time but still couldn't understand:

Why did Li Haoyu's attitude change so suddenly?

Just as Andy was about to secretly observe...

Li Haoyu's face was completely covered with a kind smile, and there was no trace of indifference left.

This even made Andy wonder if he had been overly sensitive just now.

Perhaps Li Haoyu didn't think that much about it at all?

Maybe I'm just being paranoid?

But Andy quickly dismissed the idea.

Because she is an extremely observant person. Her feeling just now couldn't be fake.

Andy didn't notice that Li Haoyu was still intently studying his report.

Andy suddenly understood.

Li Haoyu delegated authority to Snail Games' IPO because he genuinely possessed exceptional work abilities.

But his rejection of himself, and the fleeting coldness in his eyes, were not fake.

Because to Li Haoyu now, she is just a subordinate with decent work ability, nothing more.

She had just committed a major taboo for her boss: overstepping her authority.

This is Snail Games, not Lao Tan's company.

It's no longer a place where she can do whatever she wants.

Andy took a deep breath, a sudden sense of fear rising within him.

She always thought she was smart and capable enough to handle anything at work.

But now it seems that was incredibly naive.

Could Li Haoyu, who was able to establish Snail Games in just a few years, be an ordinary person?

Isn't he much smarter than herself? Yet she rashly questioned the company's rules without thoroughly understanding the company's situation.

That's absolutely ridiculous.

Clearly, Li Haoyu saved face for himself this time.

He didn't make his point too clear.

She has already lost quite a few points this time.

Next, she not only needs to avoid any mishaps in the listing process, but she also needs to find ways to make up for lost points elsewhere.

Andy is not one to dwell on the past.

Since what has already happened cannot be changed.

Then all she needs to do is to do her best in the future.

Andy rallied his spirits and continued reporting to Li Haoyu.

This is how it is reported.

It took a full half hour.

Li Haoyu had already closed the document.

With his current memory, he only needs to look at the contents of the document for a few minutes to memorize it perfectly.

Li Haoyu didn't interrupt, simply because he wanted to see Andy giving a serious report.

Because it's not just men who are focused on their work that are sexy.

A woman who works hard can be just as charming.

That focused and dedicated state of mind gave her the air of a career-driven, sophisticated woman. No, a queen of career women, which fueled Li Haoyu's desire to conquer her.

Not to mention that Andy is now not only wearing a business suit, but also a pair of black attack speed boots.

This made Li Haoyu a little excited.

I even experienced a long-lost feeling in Andy: the desire to conquer.

Especially this kind of unruly woman

That would be even more exciting.
