After graduating for ten years, Luo Bo drifted through countless companies, yet remained a failure.
An unexpected event sent him back to that crossroad of graduation choices...
Luo Bo: ...
Mi Xian from the studio is still working. Today is Christmas, and Luo Bo wanted to ask him for a favor, so he couldn't help but postpone today's live broadcast.
"Mixian, you have to do me a favor today, it has to be you." Luo Bo had a serious expression as soon as he came up.
Mi Xian couldn't help but become serious. He put down his work and asked, "What can I do for you? I will definitely help you if I can."
There are no major projects at the moment, so I'd be happy to take some time to help Mulebo out personally.
Luo Bo mysteriously pulled Mixian into the office and locked the door. Mixian felt a little uneasy. What was he doing? It was like a secret agent meeting.
"You know about the movie preview, right?" Luo Bo laid the groundwork first to avoid being unclear.
Mixian nodded: "Of course I know. If our studio becomes popular with this, we can directly transform it into a company next year."
Mulebo had initially approached him about collaborating, and Mixian had joined the small studio because he saw Mulebo's potential. He'd originally planned to participate in the Metaverse initiative at ByteDance, but unfortunately, the company was overrun with senior executives, and seniority meant he had no chance.
By chance, he took a fancy to Mulebo, hoping to fulfill his dream again one day. Mulebo didn't give him a specific deadline, just said it would be in the future.
He also chose to believe Mule Bo, so the relationship between the two was not only partners but also friends, even though they were more than ten years apart in age.
"There's someone on my preview invitation list who can't come, so I need you to help out." Luo Bo said without any concealment.
Mi Xian was confused. He thought it was some earth-shattering event, but it turned out to be just like this?
"No, who can't come? What's the reason? Why do you need me?" Mi Xian asked three times in confusion.
Luo Bo hesitated for a long time and said, "Su Ying, isn't she in school? The instructor who asked for her leave doesn't believe she has a job, so you go and prove it."
After hearing this, Mi Xian was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "You are also the actual person in charge of the company, why don't you go?"
Luo Bo couldn't help but say with a guilty conscience: "I sent her to school before, and their teacher saw me and knew that I was her boyfriend..."
Mi Xian couldn't help but laugh out loud. It was great to be young. "Okay, then I'll go with you. Now?"
Luo Bo also nodded. Mi Xian packed up his work tools, changed into his suit, and tied a dark red tie.
After going to the bathroom to tidy up a bit, Mixian instantly turned into a boss with a strong aura. His stern face and the pair of blue light glasses made him look many times more powerful than himself.
Luo Bo also acted out the whole role and put on his own suit from college, looking like an assistant.
I hurried out to borrow a folder from an employee outside, so that it would look more formal.
The two exchanged a smile and quickly got into character. After putting on their masks, they hurried out of the car and drove off. The employees watching them leave couldn't help but quietly discuss what big job they were going to discuss.
Luo Bo was driving, and Mi Xian was sitting in the passenger seat with his eyes closed, resting. On the way, they discussed what to say when the time came. Mi Xian also understood everything immediately.
The car was driving on the empty road, and Mi Xian was lying there, unable to help but miss the power he had when he was in charge of a department of dozens of people in his previous company.
Luo Bo, watching from the sidelines as Mixian's aura grew increasingly bossy, was struck by a thought: It seemed Mixian wasn't as simple as he'd claimed. A newcomer to the workplace would naturally tremble in fear, as if on the brink of an abyss.
It's just that in his previous life, he had been struggling for ten years and had seen all kinds of bosses. He had long been immune to these things. He had long understood the true meaning of the world: when you have nothing to ask for, nothing really matters.
The car soon arrived at the school gate, and the security guard dutifully stopped it and asked, "Do you have an appointment?"
Now it was Mi Xian's turn to perform. He just stretched out his hand and waved, and Luo Bo took out a business card from the folder and handed it to him.
Mi Xian’s business card naturally couldn’t be printed with such a tasteless name as Mulebo Studio. It just had Mi Xian written in gold-plated fonts on the front, and there was nothing on the back except a phone number.
"I have an appointment with Professor Weng Haiying from your law school. Here's my business card. You can ask for it."
After saying that, Mi Xian just stood there motionless. The oppressive aura from Mi Xian was something a small security guard could not bear.
In his opinion, this person must be someone important, so he hurried back to the security booth to look for the department leaders. He found the name Weng Haiying among the vice-presidents, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
After the call, the security guard was no longer so distant. He hurriedly checked the two people's travel codes and nucleic acid test certificates from the past two days and opened the gate for them.
After entering the campus and passing a temporary sampling station, the two people also took throat swabs and nucleic acid scans before entering the campus.
After they were far away from the school gate, the two of them laughed out loud: "Good cooperation, Mixian, you were not really the boss before, right?"
Mi Xian stopped smiling and sighed: "How is that possible? If I were the boss, how would we meet now?"
Without further ado, the two headed straight to the dean's office at the law school. The flow of people on campus had increased considerably. With the lockdown, many students were busy strolling around campus, and the number of people in relationships had also increased significantly compared to before the pandemic.
After asking for directions several times, the two arrived at the dean's door.
I knocked politely on the door, and an elderly woman's voice, full of energy, came from inside: "Come in."
Mi Xian entered, followed by Luo Bo. Vice Dean Weng Haiying, Su Ying's mentor, looked unhappy when she saw Luo Bo behind her.
"Sit down, there's water over there," Weng Haiying said with a touch of emotion, clearly regarding Luo Bo as a villain who had kidnapped her students. "You've even brought an extra this time, let's see what you can do."
Luo Bo also stood up awkwardly to pour water, first poured a cup for the rice noodles, then poured a cup for himself before sitting down.
"Dean Weng, Su Ying is indeed an employee of our company. This is the contract at that time, you can take a look." Mi Xian took out the updated contract and handed it over.
Fortunately, after Mixian took over the studio, all the contracts were re-signed, and those signed by Luo Bo before were invalidated.
Firstly, the salary structure at that time was simple. Secondly, as the person in charge, Mi Xian would naturally sign on behalf of Luo Bo, and he would only be the boss behind the scenes.
Dean Weng glanced at Luo Bo, put on his glasses and began to check the authenticity of the contract.
