Rebirth of the Entertainment Giant

On the second day, under the introduction of Xu Fengnian, Zhang Xiaohua and the intermediary in charge of the building completed the transaction.

After that, Zhang Xiaohua found a company to decorate the place and then purchased 50 desks, 50 high-end computers, and added various office equipment. At present, everything was in place, the rest of the staff was just waiting for Zhang Xiaohua to lead them to settle in the new building.

.....

Monday, 8:00 am

Under the leadership of Zhang Xiaohua, Yuan Datong and co moved into the new building.

Looking at the simple but unconventional decoration, the spacious and comfortable office environment and the new equipment, everyone was over the moon.

Now they seemed more like a real company!

The most important thing was that, from now on, everyone had their own office!

Zhang Xiaohua, as the boss, naturally claimed the largest office. He had already decorated it, getting a customised curved ebony desk and a massage chair which could be adjusted into a bed, the office was already installed with an air-conditioning and humidifier. The street view was like something straight of a postcard.

"Well, hurry up and pick an office, there is still a lot of things to do."

When Zhang Xiaohua said this, the group darted off looking through the offices to pick one out.

At this time, a middle-aged woman about 40 years old walked in followed by two young beautiful girls. One of them was holding a flower basket in her arms.

"Oh, hello there." Zhang Xiaohua smiled and greeted them.

"Hello, we just came to say hello. We are from the floor above. The name is Hao Jie." The middle-aged woman said to Zhang Xiaohua and smiled. "I didn't expect that the company moving in would actually be HuaXiang Entertainment. Can you help me ask Miss Ling for her signature, my kids love her music!"

"You're too polite. I will get her to sign an album and send it up later. I hope you can help take care of us. After all, we are new to the building so we are gonna have to rely on you." Zhang Xiaohua said with graciousness.

"Young, promising yet not arrogant, good, truly a rare talent!" Hao Jie appreciatively looked at Zhang Xiaohua: "I am in the clothing business, since we are neighbours, in the future you can just call me Sister Hao, if you need any help just come up and ask, we will definitely help out if we can."

"I bought some flowers as a little welcoming gift."

She waved her hand and the beautiful girl behind her placed the flower basket on the reception desk beside Zhang Xiaohua.

"Sister Hao is a predecessor. It should be me coming to pay you a visit. If you're willing, I would like to treat you to a meal."

Zhang Xiaohua already had a general understanding of this sister, she had started her business from scratch from a humble weaving business, she had gradually built up her own brand - Ashima Dresses. Now, she was worth millions. She was a celebrity in the industry, a recognized woman who was known as kind and respectable.

The current Zhang Xiaohua had become a well-known figure in the business world as one of the great minds of the younger generation.

Hao Jie was also a businessman, so she naturally had heard about Zhang Xiaohua, or at least she knew about HuaXiang Entertainment.

"Of course as long as you're treating hahaha!"

After make some more generic conversation for a while, Hao Jie took her leave.

He wanted to set up a clothing department and later design clothes for the company's stars. Then eventually start off a fashion line in the name of the stars.

A while after Hao Jie left, several young people entered from the elevator. Three men and three women, each holding a flower basket in their hands.

"Hello...?"

"Hello Brother Zhang, we are from the company downstairs 'Daxia Brokerage', my name is Xu Hui, I am the general manager of the company. When we heard that HuaXiang Entertainment moved here, we could not believe it, so we rushed up to see the truth."

Zhang Xiaohua had researched the company after hearing about them from Manager Xu, they were a relatively new company so they didn't have much of a reputation in the industry.

"In order to congratulate your company on the move, we brought flowers." After that, Xu Hui and his people walked up and handed over the the flower basket in their hands to Zhang Xiaohua who placed it on the reception desk.

"I'm just curious, what type of brokerage company are you?" Zhang Xiaohua asked.

"Oh, our company is involved in a lot of business, we do company acquisitions and mergers. We also do work in entertainment scene as well. For example, we can do investment analysis, act as a third-party intermediary, provide star recommendations, etc.." Xu Hui answered.

It was rare to have such a good opportunity to promote the company. If HuaXiang joined them as a client it, would be a massive win.

"I think we might have an opportunity to cooperate in the future. After all, a brokerage company and an entertainment company are basically interlocked." Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang, if there is anything we can help you with in the future, please do ask. We promise not to disappoint." Xu Hui was ecstatic and hurriedly took out a business card and handed it to Zhang Xiaohua.

"It's only natural to help each other, I hope we can cooperate in the future." Zhang Xiaohua also took out a business card and exchanged it with Xu Hui.

"Thank you, Boss Zhang. Then we shall take our leave."

"Thank you for your flower baskets." replied Zhang Xiaohua leading them out

Although Zhang Xiaohua had a lot of classic songs, someone had to sing them, finding the perfect singer often gave Zhang Xiaohua a headache.

Even after all this time he had only found two singers, one was Wang Jingwen and the other was Ling Ming, which showed how hard finding the ideal singer was.

In the future, this Daxia Brokerage could help them scout singers, it would be so much more convenient.

He was lost in his thoughts when yet another group of people entered, they were different from the previous two people. This time, these people walked in an imposing manner, all of them were dressed in black suits, wearing sunglasses.

"Hello there, you are...?" Zhang Xiaohua asked weakly.

After this question, a middle-aged man strode in front of the group and extended his hand to Zhang Xiaohua: "Hello Boss Zhang, we are from the 6th floor 'Hurricane Security' I am the boss of the company, Xiong Zhuang!"

Zhang Xiaohua released a sigh of relief, when he learned that the other party was a security company, Zhang Xiaohua immediately returned to normalcy and stood tall.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't know Brother Xiong would be coming to visit, is there something wrong?" Zhang Xiaohua looked at Xiong Zhuang's, the guy was built majestically, he had sword-like eyebrows, and he looked stalwart, as if born to be a bodyguard.

"I heard that your company just moved in, so I led some of the staff to come say hello. In addition..."

"You want to provide us security?" Zhang Xiaohua seemed to have seen the mind of Xiong Zhuang, and helped him out.

Xiong Zhuang nodded and suddenly smiled, but it was such an ugly smile that it almost scared off Zhang Xiaohua.

"Our company has a total of 300 people, all of whom are military veterans. We can provide various security services, including personal security, venue security services, public security services, etc. We have extensive combat experience and our prices are low. So, if your company needs security services, we can take full responsibility for it 24 hours a day!"

Ling Ming's concert at Tianhe Gymnasium was on October 1st. At that time, security would certainly be needed. This was perfect timing.

"Brother Xiong, you have come at just the right time. On October 1st, our company is holding a concert at Tianhe Stadium. For security, it seems we will truly have to trouble you to take care of it. As for the specifics, Manager Xu will talk you through them."

"Please come with me Boss Xiong, let's go to my office to talk." Xu Fengnian made a petition to Xiong Zhuang, and they went into his office.

In just 10 minutes, Xu Fengnian signed a contract with Hurricane Security, a total of 301 security guards including Xiong Zhuang. The price was 2,000 yuan per hour for each person for being responsible for Ling Ming's personal safety and maintaining the order of the scene until the end of the concert.

For this price, Xiong Zhuang was very satisfied, but he was more concerned about a long-term cooperation with HuaXiang Entertainment. For Xiong Zhuang and the entire Hurricane Security, they were a fat meat pie that fell from the sky!

After the bearded Xiong Zhuang was sent away, Zhang Xiaohua gave a thumbs up to Xu Fengnian and smiled: "Oh, Manager Xu, with so little money, you actually made the other party leave with wide smiles. Truly a fox, old but still cunning!"

"If they do a good job, we can work with them for a long time. The personal safety of a star can't be ignored. After all, if the fans go crazy it will be too dangerous."

After listening to Xu Fengnian's words, Zhang Xiaohua nodded and expressed his approval.

But now the top priority was to recruit more talents first.

At present, Zhang Xiaohua felt that manpower was seriously inadequate.

A real company needed to have specific department in charge of certain jobs, such as the finance department, personnel department, propaganda department and other major departments. They all had to be established, otherwise the company would become a mess as it grew bigger.

"Gather everyone for a meeting." said Zhang Xiaohua as he walked toward the conference room. Xu Fengnian went to call Yuan Datong and co to gather in the conference room.

Due to the lack of people, the large conference room inevitably felt empty.

Zhang Xiaohua took the lead to say: "I have already asked Zhou Yi to organise all kinds of equipment needed for the Ming'ers concert. I am going to go back to the TSD Troupe to pick up ten dancers. I want five men and five women, Shi Yuan will lead the team to choreograph a dance and then rehearse it. As for Emma, ​​Xiaohai, Haozi, Jimmy and Jack, you can't be idle, you will responsible for the live soundtrack, the arrangements for those songs were all created by you, so you should have no problem. I will arrange the rehearsal for the concert at the end of the month, and you have to be prepared."

"We know, you can rest assured!" Several people responded in unison, showing confidence.

Zhang Xiaohua nodded with satisfaction and turned to Xu Fengnian: "Manager Xu, after the meeting, can you start two recruitment drives. I want to expand the manpower. First recruit a Human Resources Manager, then slowly keep recruiting employees to build a HR Department, so it will be easier to manage all the employees. In addition, recruit a financial manager, the company's expenses and income must be properly accounted for in the future. Call me before you start the interviews, I want to personally interview them."

"Including the business department headed by Manager Xu, and the music creation department, as well as the personnel department and the finance department. The company currently has four departments."

After saying this Zhang Xiaohua was about to announce the end of the meeting, but he saw Emma slowly raise her small hand, she corrected: "Boss, there are four departments, not five."

"There is also the administrative department, everyone here is a member of the administrative department. I hope that everyone can supervise over the company actively in the future. Only in this way can the company develop stably according to our vision. Okay everyone, get busy now, scatter." replied Zhang Xiaohua whilst getting up and heading to his office.

"I feel like... the boss seems to have changed all of a sudden? He seems more strict and serious..." Emma said with a blank face.

"As the Boss, he has to portray a more serious attitude and set rules. This is something that can't be avoided. If the rules and everyone's roles aren't clearly set out, the company will lose its core. He is doing it for the company, outside the company he is still the Zhang Xiaohua you all know and crack jokes with." Xu Fengnian smiled and reminded cutting of Emma's comment.
