Ouyang Ming was a little confused. "The teacher shortage is a minor issue. Employment is a major problem in today's society. It's a good thing that you can help us solve part of the problem, but why do you want to build your own school? Wouldn't it be better to integrate with other schools?"

Fang Yang shook his head. "After the headquarters of Yuewen Entertainment Media is built, the total number of its own employees will reach four or five thousand, plus tens of thousands of family members. This school is the first problem to solve for the employees. This is my idea: employee apartments will be allocated to employees at cost price. Of course, this is based on the premise that the employees do not resign. Once an employee resigns, the company will buy them back at the original price. In this way, it will enhance the employees' sense of belonging to the company, which will also be of great benefit to the company."

"Once the school is built, your city will provide the teachers, and our company will cover all expenses. Our employees' children will attend school for free, and meals will be provided free of charge. This will give our employees a peaceful and secure environment, and it will also reduce the burden on your city government!"

Ouyang Ming gasped, "If you do this, it'll cost a fortune!"

Fang Yang chuckled and said, "It's perfectly normal for the company to give its employees some feedback when it makes money!"

"That's a good idea. It would set an example of a conscientious company, but it might put a lot of pressure on other companies. I'm afraid they might squeeze you out."

"It's alright, we're just building a school for children of employees. That's how the country went through things back then. Aren't there several adult colleges like this in the country now? After graduation, they'll be assigned to their own companies."

Ouyang Ming smiled wryly, "You know that's an adult university, but you can build it if you want. Aren't there private schools now? What you've built is almost no different from a private school!"

At this moment, Duan Qingrong, who had been standing quietly to the side for a while, couldn't help but ask, "Could I book a private restaurant at your place first?"

Fang Yang and Ouyang Ming turned their heads at the same time and saw Duan Qingrong carrying a plate of dishes with a big smile on his face. They said in unison, "Are you a ghost? You walk without making a sound!"

Duan Qingrong put the dishes on the table. "Don't blame me, you two were so engrossed in talking that even the loud noise I made when I opened the door didn't disturb you."

Fang Yang picked up the wine pot and poured a glass for Duan Qingrong. "Old Duan, sit down and have a drink with me. What made you decide to open a private restaurant?"

Duan Qingrong raised his glass and clinked it with Ouyang Ming and Fang Yang's, "So you two can both run away, but I can't go and open a branch?"

Fang Yang chuckled, "I'm sorry, I thought you were reluctant to give up this precious place in Shanghai. What would happen to this store if you opened a branch there?"

Duan Qingrong laughed heartily: "You don't know this, do you? I have two brothers. After I leave, my second and third brothers will still be here to keep things in order. My two younger brothers are just as capable as me!"

Fang Yang cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I really didn't know that. Please forgive me. Come, let me toast you both. I wish you both a promotion and great wealth, and that your lives will become more and more prosperous!"

Ouyang Ming and Duan Qingrong raised their glasses and clinked them together. The three of them downed half a glass of wine in one gulp. Ouyang Ming laughed and said, "One of us got promoted and the other made a fortune. What about you? Don't you have anything to say?"

Fang Yang poured half a glass of wine back into the three empty glasses. "Now that both of you brothers are better, it's hard for me, your little brother, not to make a fortune. Don't you think so?"

Ouyang Ming and Duan Qingrong exchanged a smile, and Duan Qingrong couldn't help but laugh, "Looks like you have big ambitions, kid. Tell me, besides the school, what else do you have in mind?"

Fang Yang laughed heartily but stopped talking. "Come on, come on, look what delicious dishes Lao Duan has cooked for us! Let's eat some first. In this cold weather, if we don't eat them while they're hot, they'll lose their aroma!"

Duan Qingrong laughed and scolded, "You little rascal, you're putting on airs! Ouyang, these are bamboo rats we caught yesterday. It's not easy to catch a few in this cold weather. Eat some vegetables first to warm yourself up."

After the three of them devoured the mutton and bamboo rat on the table, Duan Qingrong called the waiter to add broth to the hot pot and brought out another pot of wine. He looked at Fang Yang, who was adding mushrooms and meatballs to the hot pot, and said, "Now, how about you tell me about your grand plans?"

Fang Yang put down his chopsticks. "President Ouyang must have known for a long time that I wanted a thousand acres of land. As for the design, I haven't actually mentioned it yet. Here's my plan: the office building and staff dormitory mentioned earlier will take up the least amount of land. The real bulk will be taken up later."

"I plan to allocate 500 acres of land to build a cloud database. This is crucial, and we may need to add more later. Once this step is completed, many other tasks will be much easier."

Ouyang Ming suddenly interrupted Fang Yang, "Five hundred acres? Isn't that too big? For just one website, you don't need that much space, do you?"

Fang Yang chuckled and said, "President Ouyang, you don't know this, do you? What I'm building is an international website database. Do you really want our company to stay confined to China and not expand outwards?"

Ouyang Ming laughed and said, "Hehe, you have quite the ambition!"

Fang Yang chuckled, "It's all about being prepared!"

Duan Qingrong waved his hand, "Please continue your performance!"

Fang Yang continued, "The rest is the tourist area. Our company will build multiple sound stages and a film city. This area is estimated to be several hundred acres. We can't give an exact estimate right now; it will depend on the future filming schedule. Of course, it won't be the same as the film cities that others have already built. We want to build our own unique film city. After the movies are filmed, we will open it to the public as a tourist area to increase audience participation."

"In addition, there are the children's theme parks I mentioned before, which will also be created based on movies and TV shows. For example, the shows 'Calabash Brothers' and 'Tom and Jerry' that are currently playing on our website will create a brand effect after a few more months of airing. At that time, the completed castle will attract tourists from nearby areas to come and play. It's just that there is no scale effect yet, so it's not time to build it yet!"
