Chapter 202 The God of Wealth

On the second day after leaving the confinement period, Tian Xiang took the relatives from her hometown out to play for a day, and sent everyone to the train station the next day.

This time, Tian Weibing went back with his son and daughter-in-law. Hu Honglian was still there, continuing to stay here to help his daughter take care of the children.

Although she has hired a nanny, she feels more at ease taking care of her grandson herself. She will go back when her grandson is a little older.

Meng Chengan and Tian Xiang bought platform tickets and sent everyone to the car. When they got out, Tian Xiang told him, "I'm not going home. I'm going to work."

Meng Chengan looked at his wife, "Are you serious?"

"Um."

Meng Cheng'an looked at his mother-in-law and son sitting in the back seat of the car.

Tian Xiang: "Let's go together."

Meng Cheng'an didn't move. In fact, he wanted his wife to rest at home for another half a month before returning to work.

At this moment, Hu Honglian, who was sitting in the back, said, "Go ahead. I've packed diapers and clothes."

Both mother and daughter said they wanted to go, so Meng Chengan had no choice but to obey.

Tian Xiang didn't tell the factory that she was going back to work today, but when they heard that she was coming, leaders of various departments rushed out to greet her.

There’s no way, it’s the God of Wealth.

It has been mentioned before that Tian Xiang will participate in the management of the factory after returning to work.

The factory had prepared an office for her in advance, a single office with a lounge, so that she could rest and take care of her children.

The car is also ready for you to use.

Meng Chengan was quite satisfied with the factory's arrangements. He walked around the office and said to his wife, "I'll ask Aunt Tang to come over later. If you need to go out, take Aunt Tang with you. Be careful."

The Aunt Tang mentioned by Meng Cheng'an is the driver and bodyguard Tang Aiqun introduced to Tian Xiang by the old man when she was not pregnant.

During the year that Tian Xiang stopped working, there were not many places where Tang Aiqun could be used, but his salary continued to be paid.

Tian Xiang nodded.

Meng Cheng'an had to go back to the company for a meeting today, so he left quickly.

Tian Xiang asked everyone to disperse and she would notify them if there was anything.

After everyone left, Tian Xiang sat in the chair and sighed. She felt like she was back to the time when she was working in the factory, except with more pressure.

Hu Honglian comforted her daughter, "It doesn't matter if it's a small thing or a big thing, just keep a good attitude."

Tian Xiang nodded.

In the following days, Tian Xiang started to go back to the factory to work, bringing Hu Honglian and her son, as well as a lot of things, with her every day.

Sometimes the old man would come along as well. It was really boring at home, so he decided to come and take care of the kids together.

Because Liu Jun hasn't come back yet and there are no films to shoot at the factory at the moment, I just took on some TV commercials and so on.

Every day when Tian Xiang goes to the factory, she either attends meetings or reads scripts.

The person Meng Cheng'an introduced to her has arrived and is currently studying the script with the editorial department.

To produce good works, you must first tell a good story.

This script took a month to read, and in the end Tian Xiang got angry because several versions in a row failed to meet her requirements. She didn't know if there were really no talented people in this area, or if everyone just didn't work hard and just lived one day at a time like before, taking the factory salary but not taking these things seriously.

In fact, this is also a common problem in state-owned enterprises at present. Everyone has not yet recovered from their previous work attitude, and their enthusiasm is not high and they are rather lazy.

The leaders have talked about these things many times in the factory meetings.

There is no way. If we don’t try harder to compete, we will be doomed.

The leaders are quite aware of the situation, but the people below them don’t think so.

When she returned home in the evening, Tian Xiang asked Meng Chengan if there was any good idea.

Although the magazine opened by Meng Cheng'an is a Sino-private joint venture, it is only for the purpose of obtaining a license and putting its name on the government side, but it is actually still privately managed.

Meng Cheng'an gave his wife an idea, which was to break the iron rice bowl.

Tian Xiang took it to heart, and held a factory-wide meeting the next day. She planned to organize an essay contest, bringing out the current editorial team's projects and letting all employees in the factory think about them. No matter who was chosen, they would be transferred to the editorial team immediately, receive the highest salary, and receive a bonus at the end of the year.

If the original editorial team members failed to write useful content three times, they would be transferred out of the editorial team and assigned to other departments, such as logistics and security.

If the factory can't produce anything good, Tian Xiang will place an advertisement in the newspaper and call for essays from all over the country.

At that time, those people in the factory will stay if they can, and if they cannot, they will buy out their years of service or retire early.

When the regulations came out, everyone was shocked.

The next day, someone secretly submitted a letter of complaint to the higher-ups, saying that Tian Xiang broke the rules and bullied employees.

The above makes no sense at all.

It is not just the film studios that are facing reform. The situation is similar in all industries and they all have these problems. The relevant units receive mountains of letters of complaint every day.

There is no way, this is the pain point of reform.

Seeing that the higher-ups didn't care, the factory wanted to organize a strike, but when they saw Mr. Meng and the guards around him carrying guns, they immediately backed down.

Tian Xiang's tough policy was quite effective. In less than half a month, she received several pretty good scripts.

Holding the new script of much higher quality, Tian Xiangxin said, it’s not that everyone is incompetent, they just don’t pay enough attention.

Another half a month passed, and Tian Xiang chose a script written by a security guard and made the official decision to start preparing for the filming.

Liu Jun just happened to come back from studying.

After studying outside for more than two months, Liu Jun has changed a lot. He has lost his arrogance as a scholar and has become much more humble, stable and mature.

After reading the script chosen by Tian Xiang, he thought it was good and suggested that the factory advertise in newspapers and hold auditions across the country for the next costume drama through registration.

As for casting, Tian Xiang thinks it should be up to the director and let Liu Jun handle it.

Liu Jun: "Other roles can be chosen from outside, but you still have to be the heroine."

Liu Jun looked at Tian Xiang and said sincerely: "I have benefited a lot from this study trip. Thank you."

I haven't seen him for more than two months, and he's become so corny.

Tian Xiang: "The script is the main thing. It doesn't matter if I am the protagonist or not."

She has come to terms with it. Between hobbies and money, the latter is more important.

Liu Jun: "Don't worry, you are very suitable."

Since he said so, Tian Xiang didn't refuse.

Afterwards, Tian Xiang took a week's vacation and handed over all the work to Liu Jun.

After the studio's audition advertisement came out, it caused quite a stir in the industry, because this time the casting was no longer about paying the actors a salary, but instead calculating the money based on the number of episodes and time they performed.

By this calculation, the actors can get a lot of remuneration, which is many times better than a salary.

As soon as the advertisement came out, the studio gate was filled with applicants, many of whom came from other provinces by bus.

Seeing that Tian Xiang had broken all the industry rules, Chang Wan went home to find Chang Ziliang and told him that this was not acceptable and was too utilitarian. She asked Chang Ziliang to find a way to stop it, after all, he was from the Ministry of Culture.

Chang Ziliang said to his daughter, "Isn't this good? You are also in this industry. Wouldn't you be happy to make more money?"
