The factory buildings in front weren't very interesting, so Fang Yang just glanced at them briefly before heading towards the back. Zhai Ying, knowing Fang Yang's intentions, led him through a small door at the back.

"General Manager Zhou gave instructions here, saying that it would be used for 3D printing props. In order to ensure the relative independence of this department, General Manager Zhou instructed that this area be isolated so that it would not be affected by the start of production at the factory in front."

Seeing Fang Yang glance at the small door, Zhai Ying explained to him, "There is also a separate exit passage here, which makes it convenient for the props to be transported out by car after they are made, instead of having to go through the toy factory."

"Yes, that's a very thoughtful plan."

Fang Yang toured the place with great interest. It was just a few empty factory buildings, but the sealing was much better than that of the toy factory. After all, 3D printers would be installed here, which had special requirements for dust, hygiene, air quality, temperature, and humidity.

"Mr. Fang, everything else is fine, but we're facing a labor shortage. There's market demand, but we can't produce it, which is very frustrating."

"The company is already trying to find a solution to this problem. If that doesn't work, we'll sign a targeted training contract with the school. You can't let yourself be driven to despair, there's always a way."

Zhai Ying was amused by Fang Yang's words. He was right. Although it wouldn't help much with the current predicament, it was still a way. Although the combination of factory and school was slow to show results, it was a stable path in the long run.

"President Fang's method of targeted training is very feasible. We'll discuss it later. After all, we are just a factory with high employee turnover. If we cooperate with schools, it will at least reduce our training time considerably, and it will also be a stable recruitment channel for us."

Fang Yang didn't expect that a casual remark would be taken as a classic by Zhai Ying. However, it seems that this model has been used by many factories before. Did Zhai Ying not know that?

Seeing that it was getting late, Fang Yang returned to his office to handle the remaining documents, most of which concerned financial settlements. For example, these project payments should have been settled after the completion of the inspection, but Fang Yang hadn't been to the company for six months. If he were in China, he could have had someone deliver the documents for signature, but this time he was abroad, so there was no way to do it. Fortunately, the construction company understood the situation and was able to handle it now. They were probably already anxiously waiting to pay their workers' wages!

Aside from money matters, most of the other matters are summaries of information from various departments. This needs to be reviewed by Fang Yang. Fang Yang doesn't have to get involved in the specifics, but he must at least know about them. Fang Yang makes the final decisions on major matters, while a few vice presidents in charge can sign off on minor matters, but everything must be summarized and submitted to Fang Yang for his information.

What Fang Yang is seeing now is a summary report of the chart performance of several new songs from the previous few months.

Thanks to the songs Fang Yang tailored for them last year, the fledgling group achieved remarkable results. However, because they still have few works, their fame is limited to the fact that listeners may recognize the song and, when introduced, realize, "Oh, that's the person!" That's all.

This new song chart competition, which started in March, is a major event for the entire music industry. Last year, Fang Yang focused on developing Yuewen Entertainment Media website. Moreover, due to the blockade by Yuehai Media in conjunction with major music websites, the entire music circle was divided into two extremes: Fang Yang on one side and major music websites on the other. As a result, Fang Yang and Yuewen Entertainment Media website monopolized the entire music industry, which led to the actions of major music websites to apologize and repair relations.

Fang Yang has almost withdrawn from the music market this year, so the current new song chart competition is a duel arena for a group of newcomers and veterans, basically all below the first tier. It's a battlefield where one side fights and another takes the stage, each showing their unique skills to conquer territory.

The first to appear in March was Chen Silong. Fang Yang's song "Glass Love" made Chen Silong shine like a star in the night sky. His first appearance made many people remember this sunny and youthful boy. Later, he sang two more theme songs for TV dramas. Among the six, Chen Silong's fame was undoubtedly the greatest. Even after so many years of silence, the charm of Cantonese songs is still that a good song can win over a large number of fans. Chen Silong's success still benefited greatly from this.

The company put a lot of effort into Chen Silong's album. In addition to Fang Yang writing a hit song for Chen Silong's album, they also commissioned one of the company's top composers to create a song tailored for him. The other songs were also of high quality. Without any strong singers, Chen Silong topped the new song chart in March and then broke into the top ten on the hot song chart, becoming an instant hit!

In April, Mu Yu competed. Although she also had Fang Yang's work to support her, a second-tier singer happened to be competing this month. To make matters worse, a popular singer released a great song called "Tian Mi Mi". Unfortunately, this singer's voice was so sweet that it was cloying. With both of these factors combined, Mu Yu's defeat was understandable.

In May, Zhou Yang returned to his peak, which was no surprise to Fang Yang. Zhou Yang was a promising talent that Fang Yang had high hopes for. Whether it was his singing skills or his image, he was highly recognizable in the music industry. Without the participation of veteran singers, winning first place was a sure thing.

However, Zuo Fan suffered a major setback in June. Perhaps the songs released in the previous months had exhausted the inspiration of the company's top composers. Without more great songs to support him, it was already remarkable that he was able to maintain his tenth place.

...

After reviewing the performances of the company's newcomers, Fang Yang didn't express any further thoughts. Experiencing some hardships during the debut stage isn't necessarily a bad thing. Which singer doesn't go through a long period of accumulation and hard work before finally soaring to the top? Besides, their exposure is still a bit low. Let's wait until the variety show goes online to increase their exposure!

The day passed by as he flipped through reports, but just before he was about to leave work, he was blocked at the office door by the Mo brothers and Chen Chen.

"Mr. Fang, you're off work and have nothing to do, how about we go fishing?"

The Mo brothers finished filming the TV series at the end of June. After resting in their hometown for a month, they moved the whole family to the room provided by the company. These past few days, they have been doing nothing and have spent most of their time fishing. They happen to be like-minded with Chen Chen and they go fishing together every day after get off work to pass the time.

"Okay, will the fish bite now?"

Fang Yang had been looking at materials all day and was now thinking of going down for a walk to relax and also to check on the construction progress of the entire park.

"Of course there is. I'll go fishing now and then go back later to give Lao Luo a slice of fish or a pickled fish. The fish in this river are so fresh. After Lao Luo processes them, you can imagine how delicious they will be."

The three of them are old partners, and it seems like this is not the first or second time. After getting used to eating wild fish, eating farmed fish is naturally a world of difference!
