Chapter 258: The Company Name?

Chen Mo heard Shen Rou's words and nearly choked on the coffee he had just taken into his mouth.

A Fortune Tree!

Changing the Feng Shui!

He valued this office space precisely because of its Feng Shui, hoping the company would lose money.

And this Li Shen actually wanted to change the Feng Shui by placing a Fortune Tree.

This old fox, causing trouble for me as soon as he got back after the New Year.

Chen Mo thought bitterly, his gaze turning to the Fortune Tree, finding it more and more unsightly the longer he looked at it.

Regardless of whether this Fortune Tree worked or not, it absolutely could not stay in the company.

After thinking for a moment, he looked up at Shen Rou.

"This Fortune Tree doesn't match the Room's decor, so let's not put it here. You should communicate with Li Shen. Have him return it or swap it for some other greenery."

"Mr. Chen, what about the Feng Shui?"

Shen Rou asked hesitantly.

She had been to this office building a few times and knew a lot about the rumors regarding the top floor.

Regardless of whether the Fortune Tree was effective or not, it could at least provide some psychological comfort.

"What Feng Shui? We are all good youths of the new century; how can we be superstitious?"

Chen Mo lectured seriously.

Shen Rou felt ashamed upon hearing this: "I understand, Mr. Chen."

"That's right."

Chen Mo nodded with satisfaction, then stood up and walked out of the office. The tour was over, and it was time to go back.

Walking to the door, he saw Shen Rou still standing in the office without moving.

"Are you still busy with something in the office?"

"Ah! No, nothing."

"Then let's go together; I'll give you a ride."

Going downstairs, he drove Shen Rou to the subway entrance and then drove back directly.

At Changbai Jingyuan, after greeting the Yang Dahai family next door, he went straight inside to rest.

Having driven for almost the whole day, he was already tired.

The next day, early morning.

Yang Duoduo delivered breakfast on time.

Although he had been resting for almost a month, on the first morning of his return, the Yang Dahai family had prepared breakfast for him.

It was very thoughtful of them.

After finishing breakfast, he prepared to go out to Nanhe Coffee.

Today, he had an appointment with Tang Qiu at the coffee shop to discuss opening a film company and an elderly dance troupe. By the way, he would also take the opportunity to inspect Nanhe Coffee after the New Year to see what it was like now and whether it was still losing money.

"Mr. Chen, where are you going? Let me drive."

Just as he stepped out the door, he waited for Yang Dahai at the entrance.

"Brother Yang, the holiday isn't over yet; you should rest at home."

"It's fine. I'm just staying at home anyway, and besides, there are only a few days left before work starts again, so I'll adapt in advance."

Yang Dahai did not leave but insisted.

Chen Mo thought about it and didn't refuse any further. When work started, he would just have the finance department calculate double pay for the overtime.

Arriving at Nanhe Coffee, as soon as he walked in, he was recognized by the staff.

"Hello, Mr. Chen!"

Chen Mo nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping around, but he didn't see Song Xia or Su Dan.

This was the first coffee shop he had opened. Previously, when he had nothing to do, these two would guard the coffee shop every day. It was strange that they weren't here this time.

"Did your manager not come to the coffee shop today?"

"They came in the morning and then went out," the staff replied.

"Did they go to other coffee shops?"

"I don't know, the managers didn't say."

Chen Mo didn't ask any further. He actually hoped that these two managers had gone out to play instead of going to other coffee shops.

After all, if the company's leaders weren't managing things and were out playing, the coffee shop would definitely lose even more money.

He looked around the coffee shop and found that there were actually two customers drinking coffee, which made him feel uneasy.

After all, when he came before, he wouldn't even see one customer in half a day.

At this moment, there were two customers, which forced him to be vigilant.

He found a seat and sat down. Not long after, the store manager brought over a cup of coffee.

Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Mr. Chen.

"How is your coffee shop doing recently? Have sales increased?"

Chen Mo looked up at the store manager. The original store manager here was Lin Zhu, but she had been transferred to the Cat Cafe. He only found this current manager familiar but didn't know their name.

They must be one of the first batch of apprentices brought over from Kyoto by Song Xia.

"Mr. Chen, the coffee shop's sales have indeed increased this month."

Hearing the store manager's words, Chen Mo was shocked.

Could it be that the coffee shop had turned losses into profits?

Just as he was about to say something, he heard the store manager change the subject.

"However, this increase in sales is basically because there are more people shopping during the New Year holiday, so more people have come to drink coffee. But this increased sales volume is simply not enough to make the coffee shop profitable."

The store manager looked a bit ashamed, then hurriedly added, "But Mr. Chen, don't worry, we will definitely find a way to make the coffee shop profitable."

Hearing the store manager's later words, Chen Mo finally felt relieved.

But making the coffee shop profitable was out of the question.

He sat in the coffee shop and waited for a while.

Tang Qiu's figure appeared at the entrance of the coffee shop.

"Mr. Chen, sorry for the wait."

Tang Qiu said apologetically.

"It's fine, I arrived early. Sit down and let's talk."

Chen Mo smiled slightly and pointed to the seat opposite him.

"Mr. Chen, these are some materials about film companies that I prepared before coming here. You can take a look."

After Tang Qiu sat down, she pushed the prepared materials to Mr. Chen's table.

Chen Mo looked at the materials on the table, stunned for a moment.

He had only mentioned to Tang Qiu about opening a film company before resting yesterday. He didn't expect that when he came today, Tang Qiu would have already prepared the materials.

Clearly, Tang Qiu had organized the materials overnight after he hung up the phone.

Thinking of this, his heart felt complicated.

He hoped even more that Tang Qiu could be a bit lazier.

Not just Tang Qiu, but all the employees of the company.

He sighed secretly and picked up the materials to read.

After a while, he slowly put the materials back on the table and looked up at Tang Qiu.

"That's fine, just do as it says on the materials. You can be responsible for registering the company and the series of subsequent procedures."

"Okay, Mr. Chen."

Tang Qiu readily agreed. Since the Garment factory established its brand clothing, she had the additional job of registering copyrights for clothing styles, but overall, she was still very free.

Now that she could have a bit more work, she was naturally willing.

"But Mr. Chen, have you thought about a name for the film company?"

A name for the film company?

Chen Mo murmured to himself; he really hadn't thought about this matter.

"You can just casually…"

Halfway through speaking, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck.

He changed his tone.

"Let's call it Lanpian Film and Television. 'Lan' for blue sky, 'pian' for film."

Not bad, this name was quite good, and it had the same wonderful effect as Nanhe Coffee.

Now that Nanhe Coffee had been maintaining a state of losing money, this Lanpian Film and Television would definitely be the same.
