Chapter 49: Wolong and Fengchu, A Perfect Combination

"Thank you for your trust in me, President Chen. I will go there and give it a try. If it doesn't work out, you can transfer me back at any time, and I won't have any complaints," Wei Yan said gratefully.

"That's the right attitude. Work hard." Hearing Wei Yan agree, Chen Mo finally let out a sigh of relief.

He had finally managed to transfer Wei Yan out of the Business Department.

"It's settled then. Go back and do a proper handover with Wu Yu. I will take you to your new company tomorrow to assume your position."

"Understood, President Chen."

Wei Yan nodded, then got up and left the office.

"President Chen, if you transfer Wei Yan away, leaving only a newcomer in the Business Department might not be great," Shen Rou said with some concern after Wei Yan left, having brought over a cup of freshly brewed coffee.

"It's nothing. This is the best way to train a newcomer. If it really doesn't work, just notify HR and have them find two more sales representatives. Remember, they must be fresh graduates; don't hire anyone with experience."

Chen Mo took the coffee Shen Rou handed him, took a light sip, and said nonchalantly.

Anyway, Wei Yan had to be transferred. If one newcomer wasn't enough, he'd just add two more.

Three newcomers combined wouldn't be as good at causing trouble as one Wei Yan.

"Understood, President Chen."

Seeing Chen Mo's firm attitude, Shen Rou didn't say anything more.

President Chen must have his reasons for doing this; she just lacked the experience to understand them yet.

After all, since she started working with President Chen, she had never seen him make a wrong decision.

"Brother Yan, you're back. When are you going out to see clients? Let's go together."

Wu Yu asked quickly upon seeing Wei Yan return.

Wei Yan looked at Wu Yu, remained silent for a long time, and finally spoke slowly.

"Wu Yu, the Business Department might only have you left from now on."

"Brother Yan, what do you mean? Did you quit!"

Wu Yu asked, looking confused and puzzled.

Wei Yan glared at Wu Yu in annoyance.

"You're the one who quit. I've been transferred to another position, so you'll be the only one left in the Business Department."

"But you don't need to worry. Just keep running around doing what I taught you. Be more diligent and put your heart into it."

"If you really run into any problems you can't solve, you can call me."

"I understand, Brother Yan."

Wu Yu nodded, then looked at Wei Yan with curiosity.

"Brother Yan, what position were you transferred to?"

"Office Director at a new company."

Halfway through saying this, Wei Yan realized Wu Yu probably didn't know that President Chen had acquired another game company, so he explained the situation regarding the game company.

"So President Chen owns another company!"

Wu Yu exclaimed in shock.

"What did you expect? So work hard. Maybe you'll be the next one to get promoted."

Wei Yan put on an expression like an older brother lecturing his younger brother and patted Wu Yu on the shoulder.

The next day, Chen Mo brought Wei Yan to Snowy Sky Games.

He had called them yesterday, so Fang Chang was already waiting at the company entrance when they arrived.

"President Chen, all the staff are here. We can go over and make the announcement directly."

Seeing Chen Mo and the others arrive, Fang Chang hurried to greet them.

"Good."

Chen Mo nodded, then pointed to Wei Yan beside him and said,

"This is Wei Yan, the future Office Director."

Hearing this, Fang Chang sized Wei Yan up for a moment, then reached out enthusiastically.

"Hello, I'm Fang Chang. Welcome."

"Wei Yan, I'll be counting on you in the future."

Wei Yan smiled and shook hands with Fang Chang.

Soon, the group arrived at the conference room, where all the department heads were already waiting.

After some introductions and explanations, Wei Yan successfully became the Office Director of Snowy Sky Games. His position was slightly lower than Fang Chang's, making him the company's second-in-command.

This was just right.

Fang Chang was very talented in planning—the talent to lose money, of course.

And Wei Yan was completely clueless about this field. It might be fine if he didn't intervene, but if he did, he would probably make the situation even worse.

Wolong and Fengchu—such a perfect combination.

The company would definitely lose a lot of money.

"Alright, you can discuss company matters yourselves. I'll take my leave now."

Seeing that the handover was complete, Chen Mo spoke at the right moment.

With this pair of Wolong and Fengchu, he was full of confidence in the company.

Just as he had walked a few steps, he suddenly remembered something. He still needed to replace the office desks and chairs here; he had almost forgotten.

He immediately turned to look at Wei Yan and Fang Chang.

"I see that the desks and chairs the employees are using are too dilapidated. How can this be? Let's replace them all with a new batch."

"Wei Yan, didn't you buy a batch of desks and chairs before? That set was quite good. Just buy them according to the previous configuration. Calculate the total amount, and I will transfer the money to you directly."

"I understand, President Chen."

Wei Yan nodded quickly. He didn't know how many times he had helped President Chen buy things, so he was quite skilled in this area.

"Thank you, President Chen."

Fang Chang also said gratefully at this moment. It was his first time seeing such a good boss.

He had been to other companies, and to replace desks and chairs, they would only do it if the furniture was so broken that it affected work.

After Chen Mo left,

Fang Chang dug out some of the company's recent planning proposals and handed them to Wei Yan.

"Director Wei, these are the company's recent plans and tasks. You can take a look. If there's anything inappropriate, feel free to point it out."

"Manager Fang, you're too polite. To be honest, I don't understand anything about games, so for now, I'll just learn by following along. The planning can proceed according to the original proposal."

Wei Yan spoke slowly. Since President Chen trusted him enough to transfer him here, he wouldn't dare to give orders arbitrarily.

Moreover, Fang Chang and the others were professionals; the plans they made were certainly much better than anything he could do.

"Alright then. Director Wei, if you have any needs, feel free to tell me."

Hearing Wei Yan's answer, Fang Chang finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had been afraid that the other person wouldn't know anything and would start giving blind orders as soon as he arrived.

That would have meant all his previous efforts would have gone to waste.

"I actually do have a request?"

Wei Yan said, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Hearing this, Fang Chang's heart, which had just settled, tightened again. He didn't know what kind of request Wei Yan would make.

"Director Wei, please go ahead. As long as I can do it, I will definitely get it done."

"Since I don't understand anything right now, I was thinking, could I go to the employees' workstations and see what they do every day? I can learn while I'm at it."

"I don't know if this will affect their work."

Wei Yan asked tentatively. He didn't understand anything right now, so he could only start learning from the grassroots level.

Hearing that Wei Yan only had this request, Fang Chang relaxed immediately and said casually,

"Director Wei, feel free to learn. It won't disturb their work. And if you're sitting there, it might even act as a form of supervision."

"In that case, I'm relieved."

Hearing this, Wei Yan also let out a sigh of relief. He had been really afraid that he would affect the employees' work, and then he wouldn't know how to learn.

President Chen transferred him here, so he absolutely could not let down President Chen's trust.

He had to work twice as hard to learn.
