Chapter 194 simply shows that the allure of money is still too great.

It was only three o'clock after finishing her hair.

Ling Yue accompanied Song Xinyao to buy the daily necessities she had planned to purchase on this trip.

The bodyguard was carrying three large bags in his hands.

One bag was for toiletries, and the remaining two were full of snacks.

Things like spicy gluten strips, melon seeds, peanuts, cookies, nuts, and small cakes.

People with a monthly income of over ten thousand are just extravagant.

Returning to Company, they headed straight to the fourth floor.

Ling Yue also had an independent office here.

It was about eighty square meters, just enough.

The room was simple and atmospheric, with cold tones in its lines and color scheme; fortunately, a few potted plants were placed there, which kept the room from looking too cold overall.

Song Xinyao wandered around the office with her snacks, couldn't help but sit on the boss's leather chair and spin twice, then opened the computer and said the exact same words she had said to Ling Yue before: "This computer's internet speed is really fast!"

The 4399 mini-games loaded in a flash!

Ling Yue had 3 to-do items today and was not idle at all.

She used the internal phone to call Chen Dong over.

"Knock, knock, knock."

The door was knocked on.

"Come in."

Not even a second after Ling Yue's voice fell, the office door was pushed open, and Chen Dong walked in with a straight posture.

Seeing this, Song Xinyao hurriedly muted the computer to avoid disturbing their conversation.

"President Ling, what are your instructions?" Chen Dong asked respectfully.

"Nothing major, I just wanted to ask if the Company has established a smoking area."

This matter had been bothering Ling Yue since the morning; just when she returned, she had smelled suffocating secondhand smoke in the elevator again.

How could people work in such an environment?

Chen Dong was quite clever and seemed to sense something: "The smoking area is currently being ventilated and cannot be put into use yet.

Regarding the employee handbook and a series of rules and regulations, they haven't been perfected and distributed to the employees yet. It's my fault for not ensuring everyone formed good behavioral standards."

As the saying goes, one does not hit a smiling face.

Since the employee admitted his mistake right away, Ling Yue couldn't stay stern.

She stated her position: "Secondhand smoke is harmful to health. I don't want to leave unpleasant odors indoors. A clean and comfortable working environment allows everyone to maintain a good mood outside of work."

Chen Dong immediately said: "I understand. I will issue a notice that before the smoking area is put into use, everyone should go to the safety exit to smoke, and I will also inform them to maintain cleanliness.

Smoking in non-smoking areas will result in a 50 yuan fine if discovered."

Actually, Chen Dong had noticed this detail during lunch, but he hadn't thought much of it at the time.

He knew that group of directors, screenwriters, and actors; even if they weren't particularly close, they inevitably had work connections.

Usually when going out to eat, every time they would light a cigarette, have some drinks, and the whole meal would be filled with smoke, but no one smoked at lunch today, and the meal was incredibly refreshing.

Chen Dong didn't know about the episode that happened in the morning, but now that Ling Yue brought up the smoking issue, he could likely guess what had happened.

President Ling appeared holding a cake, setting no boundaries, and the directors and screenwriters all held spoons, eager to come forward and share the cake.

And before the food entered their mouths, they naturally had to follow the rules of the person 'holding the cake'.

One can only say, the charm of money is still too great.

Ling Yue emphasized: "No matter who it is, once they enter our Company, they must abide by this rule; this is a hard standard."

That puff of smoke this morning had given her a psychological shadow.

Chen Dong understood that even if partners came, they couldn't break this rule.

After Chen Dong went down, he immediately posted a notice in the Company's main group about the "50 yuan fine for smoking in non-smoking areas," and stated that all fines collected would be used to buy milk tea for the employees once a certain amount was accumulated, asking everyone to supervise each other.

A series of "received" replies flooded the main group.

Outside the screens, adjacent employees gathered to discuss.

"Finally, we don't have to smell secondhand smoke while working."

"We're busy to death every day, and we still have to have our organs ravaged by secondhand smoke; you go ahead and live like that."

"The boss is mighty! Now let's see if those smokers dare to puff away in front of me!"

At the same time.

Ling Yue also synchronized the requirement to establish a smoking area with Zeng Ru.

Zeng Ru stated that Company had already implemented this rule, and currently no one had broken it.

Ling Yue expressed satisfaction.

Not long after Chen Dong left, the door was knocked on again.

This time it was Qian Xu who came, and he appeared before Ling Yue with 10 strangers.

Qian Xu reached out and introduced the people beside him: "President Ling, these 10 individuals are the legal team our Company has assembled to be dispatched to Company."

The 10 lawyers looked at Ling Yue in unison and called out: "Hello, President Ling."

Ling Yue nodded at them in response.

Come to think of it, Jingcheng is really good at making money.

After Company was established, it certainly needed its own legal team.

Originally, the Jingcheng law firm didn't have lawyers dealing with the entertainment sector, but in order to reach a strategic cooperation with Ling Yue and bind deeply, they actually specially formed a legal team targeting entertainment companies.

The hired lawyers all had industry experience in the entertainment sector, at least 8 years or more, with excellent track records.

Ling Yue sent the contract to other familiar lawyers to review, and took this time to chat with the lawyers.

Well, she learned quite a bit of gossip.

Before long, the feedback came.

There were no problems with the contract.

The annual fee for this contract was 3 million lower than Qian Xu's team, because the lead lawyer's reputation in the industry was not as high as Qian Xu's.

Ling Yue signed the contract with Jingcheng and instructed the HR department to arrange a workspace for the lawyers.

The 10 lawyers left with the HR specialist.

Qian Xu was kept behind by Ling Yue: "For the matters following Company, you and your colleagues should complete the handover. From now on, you don't need to run over here; just focus on doing Company's work well.

You've worked hard recently being busy with both companies' affairs. I've sent you a 200,000 red envelope; take it and share it with your team."

Ling Yue's rewards for employees had always been this simple and brutal.

But may I ask, who doesn't like such simplicity and brutality?!

A flash of joy crossed Qian Xu's eyes, and he said to Ling Yue: "Thank you, boss!"

Qian Xu went to hand over work with his colleagues.

But the HR manager had not left yet.

She said to Ling Yue: "President Ling, 8 assistant candidates have entered the final selection, and the interviews will begin in ten minutes. Are you planning to conduct the interviews in the conference room, or directly in the office?"

Ling Yue couldn't be bothered to move, rubbed her brows, and said: "Let's just do it here."

Since the Company was established, Ling Yue was going to be an absentee boss again, so she definitely needed to place assistants in the Company to handle daily affairs for her and keep her informed about the Company's situation.

Company and Company each needed one.

She was too lazy to interview back and forth, so she simply called everyone to Company.

The current 8 people were selected from 42 applicants, among whom 4 wanted to join Company and 4 wanted to join Company, making the competition fierce.
