Minister Tang Zhaohua smiled and pledged his loyalty: "Under President Fang's leadership, I believe Yuewen Entertainment Media will have a better and better future."

Mei Yan also smiled and said, "President Fang, I am your fan. It has always been my dream to join Yuewen Entertainment Media. As long as President Fang is here, the performing arts department will definitely be able to exert 120% of its work ability and do its best to make the work perfect."

Fang Yang was very satisfied with the two new senior executives. They were both experienced managers with strong immediate combat capabilities, saving Fang Yang the effort of training them and saving a lot of time, allowing Yuewen Entertainment Media to make great strides forward.

"You two are both elites in this industry. I won't say more. Just work hard. Once the headquarters is built, you'll have plenty of opportunities to showcase your talents."

Fang Yang did not reveal the specific plan, but only offered a small encouragement.

"The meeting will now officially begin. Each department, please report on the recent situation."

Although Yang Huajin would occasionally report on the work, it was ultimately just a general overview. The specific situation of each department was best understood by the department leaders. Moreover, many of the plans were assigned by Fang Yang, and the actual implementation status still needed to be verified by Fang Yang, the chief architect.

"I'll go first," Jin Dahai from the animation department was the first to raise his hand. The animation department is now flourishing in many areas and has achieved a series of successes. Jin Dahai also owns a certain number of shares in it. He can be said to be riding high this year, and without realizing it, he has become more and more confident.

"The animation department now has nearly a thousand employees, including the industry's top talents. We have also made great breakthroughs in technology, and our production level for animated films is at the forefront of the world. The creation of 'Calabash Brothers' has been completed, and the entire team has been freed up to start production on 'Frozen 2'. 'Ne Zha' has also completed its final production and is now in the special effects production stage. I believe it will definitely be able to make it into the Golden Week holiday during the Spring Festival and shine brightly!"

"The Animation Department's achievements over the past year are remarkable and have garnered worldwide attention. We have all witnessed this. Minister Jin's role in this success is something we should all learn from. It is his tireless efforts that have brought the Animation Department, which faced numerous difficulties, to its current heights. This indomitable spirit aligns perfectly with the mission of Yuewen Entertainment Media. We believe that with Minister Jin's continued efforts, the Animation Department will achieve even greater success in the future. Of course, with such achievements, rewards are essential. At the end of the year, the company will certainly not let those who have made contributions down!"

Fang Yang didn't specify the exact amount of the reward. Everything is now governed by a set of rules and regulations. Fang Yang only needs to reiterate that rewards are based on performance, and the finance department will handle the rest. By acting in accordance with the rules and fulfilling promises, the employees below will be filled with enthusiasm for their work, and their efforts will not be in vain!

"Thank you, Mr. Fang. Actually, the biggest contributor is you. Without the script you provided, the animation department would be like water without a source or a tree without roots."

Fang Yang interrupted Jin Dahai's smug face, "If the animation department wants to flourish, it needs to actively seek out scripts. If you don't tap into the goldmine that is Yuewen Reading Website, are you going to wait for someone else to do it? The same goes for the screenwriting department. They need to be good at discovering excellent works among numerous novels. I remember our company once held a million-dollar prize. Do those excellent works have the potential for adaptation?"

The head of the film and television department is He Yong, the former deputy head who was promoted after Yang Huajin stepped down. The editorial department is headed by the film and television department. Upon hearing Fang Yang's words, He Yong said, "According to the original agreement, after repeated screenings, the editorial department found three works that meet the adaptation requirements. Adaptation contracts have been signed with the authors. One work has already been completed, and the editorial department is working hard to adapt it. It is expected that the adaptation of this drama will be completed before the end of the year."

Fang Yang nodded. "That's one aspect. We can't rely entirely on the editorial department to discover things. The animation department can also take the initiative to find out. Now there's an animation section, right? The animation department can take the initiative to discover meaningful works. Let professionals do professional things. When you find good works, you can cooperate with the editorial department. Departments should strengthen cooperation. We are a whole. Shouldn't departmental cooperation happen frequently?"

Jin Dahai, who was initially quite pleased with himself, now felt his face burning. He had gotten used to taking things for granted. Thinking about it, it made sense. When he was running his own company, he used to browse various websites to find anime works with adaptation value. Now he was waiting for Fang Yang's works to be released. But as Fang Yang's affairs increased, would the animation department be left to sit on the ground without Fang Yang's works?

"President Fang, this is something I didn't do well enough. I had a gold mine right in front of me but I didn't realize it. We will pay more attention to this in the future. After all, there are nearly a thousand people in the animation department, but we only have three groups now. This amount of work means that many people are idle and have nothing to do. I will strengthen management in the future."

Fang Yang nodded. “Your department doesn’t have a lot of people, but it does need to produce more works. As you said, it includes the most outstanding talents in the industry, but if you don’t make the best use of everyone’s talents, even the best talents can be ruined. Show the same spirit of working like crazy as you did back then, and I believe your department will get better and better.”

Fang Yang didn't criticize Jin Dahai too much, only touching on the subject briefly. He believed that after broadening his horizons this time, Jin Dahai would turn his attention to various animation markets and discover a number of excellent works.

After the animation department finished its report, Xie Bin from the special effects department raised his hand to speak. "The special effects department has recruited a lot of people this year, but we are still a bit short-staffed, especially in terms of experienced special effects production experts, which are hard to find in China. As the company produces more special effects films in the future, the problem will become more serious. Therefore, I request that the company's human resources department find some headhunting companies to recruit those top experts from abroad, which will also promote the improvement of the company's production capabilities."

Fang Yang looked at He Mali and asked, "Does your HR department have a solution for this?"

"No problem. As long as the salary and benefits are right, we can find all kinds of talent. However, professionals should do professional things. We don't know much about special effects production experts. Minister Xie needs to provide a list so we can find people to contact and avoid taking detours."

Fang Yang smiled and said, "Minister He's words make sense. There are only so many top experts in the industry, and only insiders know the true level of each person. Minister Xie has been rooted in the special effects industry for so many years, and his understanding of the industry is deeper than anyone else's. So why don't Minister Xie provide a list, and Minister He finds people to contact? That way, everyone's talents will be put to the best use, right?"

Xie Bin smiled and said, "Minister He's idea is excellent. I will provide a list after the meeting, and we await Minister He's good news."

Mary He couldn't help but laugh and said, "The purpose of our human resources department is to serve you. If you no longer have any needs, our human resources department will not be far from being disbanded."

He Mali's words brought a burst of lighthearted laughter from everyone. Over the past year, the human resources department had solved the vast majority of the talent needs of various departments, and He Mali's skills were unanimously recognized by everyone!
