Chapter 545 At the boss's command, the crowd roared.
"Hiss—!"
A series of suppressed gasps suddenly erupted!
Immediately following was an uncontrollable, excited commotion that spread across both sides of the long table!
Marketing Director, Head of Publicity and Promotion, Leader of Artist Management...
The moment these core members heard Ye Fan confirm it with their own ears, their eyes suddenly flashed with a terrifying glint, like hungry wolves eyeing fresh flesh!
Under the table, pairs of clenched fists were white at the knuckles from excessive force, heavy breathing could be clearly heard, and adrenaline was surging wildly in their blood vessels!
Which of these people wasn't an industry elite or a rising star poached by Huayi Brothers, Enlight Media, Bona Film Group, or other large corporations with hefty sums of money?
In the previous established giant, they were full of knowledge and skills, but they were trapped by the shackles of seniority and the rigid system. They could only be cogs in the machine with no decision-making power. Their ambitions had nowhere to be realized, and they were frustrated and unsuccessful!
Now, by joining Minglu Culture, they have finally ushered in a tremendous opportunity to truly stand on their own!
In this situation, who wouldn't feel their blood boil? Who wouldn't be filled with excitement?
However, amidst this almost boiling frenzy, Gu Yuejia, the film and television investment manager sitting right next to Tang Huai'an, seemed out of place.
The notebook in front of her was open, but the expensive pen in her hand was just unconsciously scribbling meaningless lines on the blank pages.
Her delicate, pretty face showed no trace of the excitement and bloodlust of her colleagues in the cutthroat world of business; instead, it was shrouded in a faint sense of bewilderment and absent-mindedness.
Ye Fan's sharp, hawk-like gaze took in the reactions of everyone present, and his eyes lingered meaningfully on Gu Yuejia's obviously detached state for an extra half second.
Then, a slight smile played on his lips, and a low chuckle broke the tense silence of the conference room:
"Thanks to everyone's hard work and dedication during this period, the framework of Minglu Culture has been completed, and the talent pool is almost full. It's time to make some changes."
His gaze swept over the faces flushed with excitement: "Otherwise, if we leave you top talents in the industry idle in the office every day, drinking tea and reading newspapers, I bet you'll be secretly..."
He deliberately dragged out his words, with a hint of mockery: "Shouldn't someone be criticizing me behind my back, complaining that I'm wasting talent and squandering resources?"
His voice was steady yet extremely penetrating.
"Mr. Ye, you're really too kind of us!"
Tang Huai'an's reaction was incredibly swift! He immediately straightened his posture, his face instantly displaying a perfectly balanced complex expression—a mixture of respect, admiration, and "fear"—as he replied with a beaming smile:
"As the ancients said, a thousand-mile horse is common, but a discerning eye is rare! If it weren't for your visionary leadership and boundless ambition, boss, who poured in that staggering ten billion yuan to build this top-tier stage for us, a stage capable of shaking the entire entertainment industry, even with extraordinary talent, we would only be obscured and remain mediocre!"
His voice was impassioned, his eyes burning: "To be able to follow a great leader like you, to charge into battle and expand our territory on this magnificent battlefield, is the greatest honor for all of us!"
It must be admitted that Tang Huai'an's ability to hold onto the position of vice president is not only due to his outstanding professional skills, but also to his impeccable emotional intelligence, which is so subtle yet effective at flattery and makes people feel comfortable.
His resounding and heartfelt declaration of loyalty was like a torch that had been lit!
Those managers, who had already been stirred up by Ye Fan's few words and were eager to fight, could no longer hold back.
"Mr. Tang is absolutely right! Mr. Ye, please give the order! Our film and television department has been running around like crazy lately, and we've practically worn out the project proposals. We're just waiting for your final decision!"
"The entire publicity department is on high alert! As soon as the project starts, we'll be working around the clock to make Minglu's first bang a nationwide sensation, resounding throughout the country!"
Artists Department, Content Department...
Public sentiment was high, and calls for battle were resounding everywhere!
Looking at the scene before her, where everyone was united and full of fighting spirit, Miao Zi, sitting behind Ye Fan, had a layer of tenderness and pride quietly spreading in the depths of her cool eyes.
Her gaze, like the softest silk thread, silently entwined around the man sitting in the main seat.
This is her man.
On ordinary days, he could flirt and play with her like a mischievous big boy, or even transform into an unreasonable "robber".
But once he gets down to business, he instantly transforms into the absolute ruler who can command the loyalty of countless industry elites, leverage billions of dollars with a single sentence, and stir up the entire industry!
......
Ye Fan did not respond to the crowd's enthusiasm, but simply raised his right hand and tapped his knuckles lightly twice on the conference table.
"Tap, tap."
Two crisp sounds, like hailstones hitting a calm lake, instantly extinguished all the boiling noise in the conference room!
The entire space fell into a suffocating silence once again.
Ye Fan didn't even offer a word of polite conversation or small talk; his gaze was sharp as a knife, cutting straight to the heart of the matter:
"All the project reports, market research, risk assessments, etc. that you submitted..."
His voice was not loud, but every word was clear, like a heavy hammer striking everyone's heart: "I had reviewed it word by word before the meeting."
He leaned slightly forward, his elbows resting on the table, his fingers interlaced, exuding a powerful, almost tangible, pressure.
"On the day you stepped into Minglu and signed your employment contracts, I personally promised you that I would give you a high degree of autonomy over the projects you are responsible for!"
His gaze swept over the tense faces, and his tone suddenly rose, becoming resolute:
"Today, I'm sitting here to show you through concrete actions that this statement isn't just empty promises to attract talent!"
Ye Fan leaned forward again, his gaze piercing, as if it could penetrate the heart:
"Now, put away that pointless excitement and politeness. Show me all the ambitions, fangs, and revolutionary ideas you've been hiding inside, brewing for who knows how long!"
This resounding promise completely ignited the conference room!
The executives below exchanged glances, their faces flushed, chests heaving, and eyes burning with an uncontrollable, almost insane flame of ambition!
That was the excitement of a lion that had been confined for so long finally seeing the grassland!
Tang Huai'an, the vice president in charge of the company's daily operations, took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his surging passion.
He cleared his throat first, straightened his impeccably tied tie, and met Ye Fan's all-seeing gaze with a calm voice:
"President Ye, since you have put your point so clearly and openly, as the vice president in charge of coordinating the business of various departments, I would like to offer my humble opinion on the company's future strategic direction."
Ye Fan nodded slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, his deep eyes gesturing for him to continue.
