The acquisition contracts for film and television scripts were readily available. Qiao Ru modified the required information in the contract template, printed it out, and had Ran Hui review it to confirm that it was correct. After that, the two parties signed the acquisition contract for the script "The Fang Family".
Jiang Xiaoli said with a smile, "Professor Ran, I really got a great lunch today."
Holding the advance payment check issued by "Jiang's Entertainment," Ran Hui smiled and said, "Isn't this a win for me?"
The two chatted for a few more minutes about the later stages of the scriptwriting before Jiang Xiaoli asked the driver to take Ran Hui home.
Qiao Ru stayed by her side, saying, "President Jiang, you must make use of such resources. These days, those mature screenwriters who can write a script like 'The Fang Family' are all incredibly ambitious, and their demands are outrageous!"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled at her, "This is a great opportunity for us. For example, Professor Ran self-published the novel 'The Fang Family', but it only sold a little over 400 copies. There are many novels like this that are not well received in the publishing market but are very suitable for adaptation into film and television dramas. We should focus on developing this area."
Qiao Ru had a sudden realization, "What you said is fantastic! I'll immediately arrange for someone to keep an eye on this!"
She nodded. "Don't worry about acquiring too many notebooks; they'll be useful eventually."
She suddenly changed the subject, "By the way, how far along are the compositions for my songs?"
Qiao Ru goes to the composition department every day to keep track of the progress and knows this very well. "They are very concerned about your pieces. The composition was completed last weekend, but they said they want to make it even better and want to submit it after the arrangement is finished."
Jiang Xiaoli raised an eyebrow. "Oh? They composed the music themselves?"
“Yes,” Qiao Ru added, “but I’ve also hired a new professional arranger, and the three of them will work together to complete this.”
She became interested. "Let's go up and take a look."
The third-floor composition department is now filled with all kinds of musical instruments and electronic devices.
Upon seeing this, Qiao Ru explained, "Our recording studio and arrangement studio are under renovation, so they're temporarily using this space."
Zhao Feiran and Gao Xiaolin were extremely excited to see Jiang Xiaoli. "President Jiang, please come and listen to the piece we just finished!"
They immediately played a piece of instrumental music called "You Are the Most Precious". Jiang Xiaoli found that the melody was a little different from the version she was familiar with in her previous life, but it was just as beautiful.
She clapped her hands. "Are there any other finished pieces? Play them for us."
"Alright!" Zhao Feiran immediately changed the song and started playing "Those Flowers".
After listening to the two songs, Qiao Ru was even more excited than Jiang Xiaoli. "President Jiang, what are your plans for these songs?"
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, "What do you think about organizing a singing competition? We can choose a male and a female champion, create a music album tailored to them, and launch their careers."
Qiao Ru's eyes lit up, and various operational plans had already appeared in her mind.
"Mr. Jiang, in that case we can start the publicity and warm-up earlier, and hold the event after the Spring Festival. When spring is in full bloom and everything is reviving, it's a good time for the competition."
Jiang Xiaoli nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's decide on that."
The three people who had overheard the entire conversation were excited. Gao Xiaolin asked expectantly, "President Jiang, you have other songs, right?"
She smiled and said, "I was quite satisfied with your work last time when I asked you to compose the music for these songs to practice. However, cooperating with me to produce songs might affect your own music creation. Are you really willing to do that? Our company doesn't have that kind of forced work mentality."
The newly arrived arranger, Liu Yunsheng, was the first to express his opinion: "President Jiang, I am willing. It would be my honor to arrange these pieces."
Zhao Feiran clicked his tongue in disbelief. "You little rascal!"
Then he quickly said, "Mr. Jiang, to be honest, besides composing music for your piece this week, I've also had a lot of inspiration for my own compositions. I'm really, really willing to compose music for you."
Gao Xiaolin glanced at the two of them, somewhat speechless. "President Jiang, what they mean is also what I mean. This period has been the happiest and most enjoyable time for me to listen to music in the past two years."
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and said, "That's fine. I'm busy with other things these next two days. We'll continue once I've taken care of them. You guys should work on perfecting the previous songs first. I'm really looking forward to hearing your own music."
The three of them nodded in unison, "Okay, Mr. Jiang."
Qiao Ru escorted Jiang Xiaoli to the elevator. "President Jiang, the 'Maotian Film & Television' situation has been making headlines lately. Many projects have abandoned them and are now looking for new partners. Perhaps we could join in and get a piece of the pie?"
Jiang Xiaoli thought for a moment and said, "We shouldn't participate in the projects that 'Maotian Film & Television' has been in contact with before, especially those where they hold the majority stake. I've researched them, and they're not good projects. We still have so many projects that haven't started filming yet, not because we lack funding, but because we lack personnel. We should prioritize stability and expand into other areas once all departments are more established."
Qiao Ru said a little embarrassedly, "President Jiang, I was indeed too hasty. I will be more careful in the future."
She nodded and entered the elevator. "Alright, you can go ahead and get busy."
Back in her top-floor office, she had barely settled in when Li Anting came in carrying a stack of documents.
She yawned. "I think a midday nap is still very important. An Ting, did you rest at noon?"
Li Anting smiled. "I took a short nap, Mr. Jiang. These are the three latest investment contracts signed by 'Jiang's Investment.' I've reviewed them; the amounts aren't large, but they all involve companies with strong growth potential."
Jiang Xiaoli raised an eyebrow. She had approved that investment projects under 1 million yuan could be approved with the permission of Fang Jingxu, the general manager of "Jiang's Investment", and Li Anting.
Recently, "Jiang's Investment" has invested in more than 30 small-scale enterprises, all of which have very good development prospects.
These three documents were specially brought to her by Li Anting, so they must have some extraordinary qualities. She flipped through them and couldn't help but smile.
These three companies all share the same characteristic: they are all express delivery and logistics companies.
She suddenly remembered the widely circulated rumor from her past life that the three major express delivery companies (STO Express, YTO Express, ZTO Express, and Yunda Express) were all related by blood.
Li Anting explained from the side, "Currently, most freight transportation still relies on the postal system, but the huge demand for freight transportation cannot be met by the postal system. Mr. Fang and I both believe that the express delivery and logistics industry will experience rapid development in the future."
Jiang Xiaoli nodded at her, "An Ting, you have excellent judgment. These companies are paying close attention to them, and I think they will have even greater potential."
Li Anting nodded happily in agreement, and then handed her another document, "President Jiang, there's also this, you'll definitely be interested."
