Fang Hai tilted his head and thought for a moment, "That's the feeling. When I told my comrades that I was going to work as a security guard, several of them changed their tone. Although they didn't explicitly say they were unwilling, their tone was much more distant, as if they looked down on the job."

"Everyone has their own opportunities. We can only help those who need it. It's hard to give help when someone is in need, but easy to give help when someone is already successful. You just need to place your comrades in core positions and give others time to be evaluated. It's not that only your comrades are the best. As long as you set up an evaluation system, you can find other qualified leaders."

Fang Hai smiled and said, "Xiao Yang, I understand. I was too superficial. I always wanted to find familiar people first, but most of them are unfamiliar people. There has to be a process of getting to know them."

Seeing that his simple-minded cousin didn't insist, Fang Yang breathed a sigh of relief. Now is the time when demobilized soldiers are looking for jobs, and the government is worried about how to place them. If they go to them now, it's to help them solve their problems. If they wait until after the New Year, it's like begging them. The same thing, but a different approach, can have completely different results. Besides, it's been so long, and they've only recruited a dozen people. Not even enough for a fingernail.

"Tomorrow, have someone clear out the small hill where they're building a house for me. It's been uninhabited for a long time, and there are probably a lot of snakes and insects on it. If it's not cleared out, it might be uninhabitable. Also, cut down all the weeds and trees. The mess is also affecting the view. I've asked Mr. Zhou to arrange a villa for you as well. You can bring your grandparents and parents over there. The conditions here are better than back in your hometown."

"Okay, I understand. We'll bring them over after everything is settled."

Fang Hai nodded vigorously. He had long been envious of the villas built on that mountain, and he never expected to arrange one for himself!

After a day of rest, it was time to top out the roof. The weather was perfect; the sky was cloudless and the sun had been shining for several days. The temperature had risen to the teens, and the snow on the roof had melted into ice water and disappeared without a trace.

Fang Yang got up early and arrived at the construction site at 8:30. The construction team had worked overtime yesterday to build a stage, and now the entire site was covered with red carpets. A huge archway stood tall at the main entrance, and dense celebratory balloons were hung on both sides. Most of the balloons belonged to the Xihu Municipal Government, and some were from companies that had cooperated with Yuewen Entertainment Media. Fang Yang also saw balloons from Nandu Film and Television, which he found quite strange, since the two companies had never had any dealings.

Zhou Kai and Yang Huajin had arrived early to help with the arrangements. When Fang Yang arrived, he saw the two of them chatting enthusiastically with Chen Yunfeng. "President Chen, you're here so early today too?"

Upon seeing Fang Yang, Chen Yunfeng laughed heartily, "President Fang, it's been a long time! You've become even more impressive. I'm here to assist President Yang and President Zhou and coordinate some work. Our President Wan will arrive around nine o'clock, so I apologize for not being able to greet you."

Fang Yang waved his hand, "Your CEO Wan is so busy, it's already a great honor that he could attend our company's topping-out ceremony. Please give me a heads-up when we arrive so I can greet him."

"Mr. Fang, you're too kind. Our Mr. Wan is also a person who enjoys making friends. Let me introduce you later. Actually, our Mr. Wan has always wanted to visit you, but he hasn't had a good opportunity until today. It's really a blessing that we have the honor of meeting you on such a wonderful day. Our Mr. Wan must be very happy."

Chen Yunfeng is also a very shrewd person. He can probably talk the dead back to life. In just a few words, he made President Wang sound like a fan of Fang Yang, who had been longing to get to know him but had not been able to.

"Haha, I appreciate Mr. Wan's kindness, but guests are always welcome, so I must let you know before you come. I can't be impolite."

"Okay, Mr. Fang, you're too kind. I'll definitely introduce you when we get there."

Chen Yunfeng was busy coordinating and arranging the site. After agreeing to Fang Yang's request, he hurriedly went off to do his work. Fang Yang was also filling in the gaps and constantly checking the preparations of each step.

At nine o'clock, several cars could be seen in the distance on the side road leading to the office building. At this time, most of the people coming were there to celebrate. Following Yang Huajin's suggestion, Fang Yang and Yang Huajin went to the temporary parking lot to greet the guests.

Fang Hai's security department was fully mobilized today. After visiting Ouyang Ming yesterday, and with Ouyang Ming's personal intervention, the demobilized soldiers' resettlement office was extremely grateful and temporarily allocated one hundred positions. This group of people arrived at the company early this morning and were put into use before even completing the onboarding procedures. There are already ten people acting as parking lot directors, directing the parking of the guests' vehicles.

As soon as the man got out of the car, Yang Huajin recognized him. "This man is from a film album recording factory in Xihu City. His name is Liu Yihong. I've only met him once, so I have a vague impression of him."

Fang Yang greeted them with a smile, "No matter what they do, everyone who comes today is a guest. You can take them to sit down first, and I'll wait here. I estimate that the guests will start to enter one after another now."

"Mr. Liu, I didn't expect you to come in person. No wonder the magpies in the tree outside the door have been chirping non-stop since early this morning. It turns out we have a distinguished guest."

"Ah, Mr. Yang, this must be Mr. Fang. He is indeed a handsome and talented man. Mr. Fang, congratulations on the topping-out ceremony of your company's new office building today. We'll be next-door neighbors from now on. Let's visit each other more often. I have some good tea. I'll bring it over for you to try sometime."

"Hello, Mr. Liu. I've heard Mr. Yang mention you before. I really want to thank you for your emergency rescue last time. I'm so grateful that I won't thank you enough. Let's have a couple more drinks at noon today."

Yang Huajin led Liu Yihong to the guest area and they were served tea by the logistics department. As for Fang Yang, it seemed that Liu Yihong's arrival had triggered a wave of new guests, and cars began to arrive one after another and drive into the parking lot. This time, not only Yang Huajin, but also Zhou Kai and Chen Chen joined the welcoming team.

Just as the three were busy greeting guests, a large convoy of cars in the distance caught everyone's attention. Leading the way were two police motorcycles, followed by two police SUVs, and then a line of cars. Further ahead, police cars were also bringing up the rear. The entire convoy drove over at a leisurely pace.

Fang Yang suddenly realized that Ouyang Ming and his group had arrived, and it was quite a large group. Even those who were already sitting in the guest area stood up and gathered around to greet them.

Tan Zhaofeng followed the crowd. As the general manager of a local film and television company, Tan Zhaofeng was naturally very familiar with everything. However, Ouyang Ming had only been transferred to the area recently and was very busy, so Tan Zhaofeng had not yet had the opportunity to get to know Ouyang Ming.

But today, Ouyang Ming's arrival for the ribbon-cutting ceremony surprised Tan Zhaofeng greatly. The convoy of more than twenty cars was a show of force, as if he had brought both the municipal and district leadership teams. Ouyang Ming really valued Fang Yang, making it clear that he had come with a large entourage to support him!
