Chapter 318 - Three-Hundred and Eighteen: Poaching Staff
Tan Ning took the tablet back to her office and carefully searched out and studied all the scandals about Yun Liu from back then. She had to help Yun Liu make a comeback. They were in this together, so it wouldn’t be to anyone’s benefit if Yun Liu went down. Most importantly, Fang Xi wasn’t by Yun Nan’s side right now, so Yun Nan currently doesn’t have her right-hand woman. Now was their best chance to make a move against Yun Innovations.
Although Yun Liu had the Gu family to back her up, the Gu family was too undependable, and their relationship with Yun Liu was too shaky. Tan Ning had to find someone more reliable for Yun Liu.
As for the Liangs, judging by Yun Liu’s demeanor, it was obvious she hadn’t managed to capture Liang Han’s heart. She would have to spark and fan their relationship.
Liang Han flipped through the manuscript that Lu Hui had sent over and was amazed. “You came up with this? Newbies truly have a fresh and different outlook. Do you want to jump ship and work for me? I’ll offer you double your salary, hehe!”
Lu Hui’s eyes widened, and she pushed up the thick glasses on the bridge of her nose. “I heard from President Yun that you and Chairman Shi are close friends. Does Chairman Shi know that you’re openly poaching his wife’s personnel?”
Liang Han calmly answered, “It’s not a big deal. I’ll poach you even if you’re Shi Nian’s staff! It says a good thing about their ability if they can keep their staff, and it shows that I’m also quite capable if I can poach their people.”
Lu Hui thought about it and nodded. “You have a point.” But Lu Hui thought to herself, ‘This is the first time I’ve seen someone act with impertinence so righteously.’ She subconsciously pushed her glasses up again.
“Well, how about it? You’re… Lu Hui, right? Miss Lu Hui, will you consider jumping ship to my company?” Liang Han asked.
Lu Hui shook her head violently. Her naturally curly and messy shoulder-length hair made her look like a Pekingese dog. It was the first time Liang Han had seen a girl so ugly that she was cute.
“Our President Yun was the one who came up with this idea. I’m just the executor. Our President Fang isn’t in good health right now, or she would be the executor. I work under President Fang and am only temporarily taking up her work. Mr. Liang, we originally planned to produce this program ourselves, but President Yun said that if we collaborate with you, your people can bring me along and teach me a lot. It’s a good opportunity for me to learn from people with experience, and President Yun won’t have to worry about training me.”
Liang Han stared at the ugly girl before him and resisted the urge to stroke her
‘fur’ before saying, “You’re telling that to me straight, just like that?”
Lu Hui nodded. Liang Han immediately appeared very sad. “You guys look down on me. You can’t even be bothered to match wits with me. You’re so direct that it’s hurtful.”
Lu Hui secretly laughed, though her expression was serious, as she stated, “Our President Yun said that there’s no need for bureaucratic niceties or insincere cordiality because you’re a true breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry. She’s in a hurry to hire people, and I’m in a hurry to finish my apprenticeship, so only by handing the project and me over to you can this program be presented to the audience in its most perfect form. Only you can invite some of the legends on our list!”
Liang Han felt moved. “Yun Nan really said that?”
Lu Hui nodded heavily. Liang Han was once again in high spirits as he remarked, “Yun Nan has good taste. Shi Nian, that punk, is lucky to have her! Hmph! Such a talented and beautiful girl is truly wasted on him!”
Lu Hui thought judgingly, ‘I heard that you were the one who said our Director Yun was fat and ugly at the beginning, or did you forget that?
Right now, Liang Han was already immersed in his own excitement. “Leave the matter of inviting the legends to me. Since you guys came up with the program, you’ll continue to be in charge. Just let me go through the script for each episode. As for the other preparatory work.. There’s nothing much to add —you guys have everything written on the proposal. It seems you’re nearly done with your preparations—we can get started.”
“Now, all we lack is a host. I’ll pick a few candidates, and we can decide who to use. As for the platform, we’ll be in charge of that. Okay, that settles that.” Liang Han stood up and extended his hand to Lu Hui, saying, “I look forward to working with you, Little Lion! Ah, sorry, it’s Lu Hui, right?”
Lu Hui also stood up and shook his hand. “It’s alright. My colleagues often call me Little Lion!” Seeing Lu Hui’s unguarded manner, Liang Han once again secretly cheered at his “cleverness.”
Lu Hui sent a WeChat message to Yun Nan after she left: “Yun Nan, are you sure Mr. Liang is mentally sound?”
Yun Nan immediately called. “How did the talk with Liang Han go?” she asked. Lu Hui recounted what had happened in detail to her.
Yun Nan spoke with a smile in her voice. “Think back to the details of the collaboration talk. You guys settled the division of labor and the steps, didn’t you? The vague and blurry areas are clear now, aren’t they?”
Lu Hui nodded. “Yes.”
Yun Nan laughed. “Liang Han stands at the top of the entertainment industry.
Think about it: can someone with such a status really be stupid?”
“Oh!” Lu Hui suddenly realized. “He’s playing dumb!”
Yun Nan had just put down the phone, a smile still on her lips, when someone pushed her office door open and barged in.
“Yun Nan!” It was Shi Xiu, who’d evidently just returned.
Yun Nan hugged Shi Xiu, who had pounced over, pleasantly surprised. “Didn’t you say you were coming back a few days later? Your brother and I were planning to go pick you up.. Why did you come back early on your own?”
