After rebirth, I became a great master

Chapter 409 The dust has settled
The "Family Matters" program team has returned to normal.

The investigation is over.

Tang Shiyi took responsibility, while Lin Guiyan went a step further, becoming the acting producer and also serving as the editor-in-chief.

The directors are working overtime.

We will strive to complete the rectification and resume the broadcast of the program in the shortest possible time.

Zhou Haoran arrived at the program team with Tang Shiyi's resignation letter in hand.

Qiao Suiqing and Hu Xiaochen both took extended leave.

I'm not coming to work anymore.

Hong Zhenru didn't have that kind of courage, so she could only grit her teeth and come to work, which made her a target of bullying.

When Zhou Haoran arrived, he noticed that her eyes were red and swollen, clearly indicating that she had just been crying.

"Editor-in-Chief Lin!"

Zhou Haoran shouted loudly from his office.

"Haoran, let's talk in the office."

Lin Guiyan quickly emerged from her small office, her tone as gentle and friendly as ever.

Zhou Haoran said coldly, "Editor-in-Chief Lin, someone is bullying a younger colleague in the office, it's workplace bullying, are you going to do anything about it?"

Without naming names, Lin Guiyan's gaze naturally fell on Hong Zhenru, whose eyes were red, and she said with a light laugh, "Our production team has always been harmonious. There's no such thing as workplace bullying. It's probably a misunderstanding..."

"Can a misunderstanding be explained away?"

Zhou Haoran was nothing like a subordinate.

Lin Guiyan couldn't put on airs in front of him, and said with a smile, "Zhenru, what's going on?"

"fine……"

Hong Zhenru wiped her eyes.

Lin Guiyan said with concern, "It's okay. If you have any problems at work, you can come to me."

"No need." Zhou Haoran waved his hand. "Zhenru, pack your things, let's go!"

"what?"

Hong Zhenru was slightly taken aback.

"Hurry up and pack your things. We're not coming back to this office!"

Zhou Haoran's voice was like the clash of metal and stone, powerful and resonant.

Then he went to Tang Shiyi's office.

Lin Guiyan paused for a moment, then immediately followed, closing the office door behind her. She said softly, "Haoran, are you leaving?"

"Yeah, this is upsetting."

Zhou Haoran didn't give her a good look.

"You're angry?"

Lin Guiyan walked over and tugged at his arm.

Zhou Haoran said, "No, I have other work commitments."

Lin Guiyan thought he was going back to the sales department, and said with concern, "Haoran, those episodes you did were so good! Other TV stations have already come to buy the broadcasting rights. You have a real talent for making programs. You should stay. Sales is not what you should be doing."

"It's boring."

Zhou Haoran didn't need to spell it out; everyone knew why he left.

"Haoran, I had no choice but to accept this situation."

Lin Guiyan sighed, took his hand, and placed it on her chest.

Now that Zhou Haoran has Aunt Wan and Teacher Jiang by her side, their mature and elegant temperament is no less than hers, and their looks are far superior. She will never be easily seduced again.

"Editor-in-Chief Lin, please don't do this."

Zhou Haoran withdrew his hand.

He took a bunch of keys out of his pocket.

Lin Guiyan sighed softly, looking somewhat troubled. "Haoran, I know you're angry, but this was truly an accident... If you're still angry, I'll stay with you as an apology, okay?"

"what?"

Zhou Haoran was stunned and didn't quite react.

Seeing his hesitation, Lin Guiyan blushed slightly, gave him a playful glare, and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "I'm married now. If you want, I can accompany you three times. Just three times. You have to keep it a secret."

Zhou Haoran then realized what was going on and politely declined, saying, "Editor-in-Chief Lin, you've misunderstood. I didn't mean that."

As he spoke, he took out the key and opened Tang Shiyi's filing cabinet.

This scene left Lin Guiyan stunned.

"Where did you get the key?"

"Given to me by the producer."

"Teacher Tang is back?"

"Ah."

"Where is she?"

Lin Guiyan pressed on, saying that once Tang Shiyi returned, the punishment could be finalized, and she, as the acting producer, could rightfully become the official producer.

Zhou Haoran said, "She's not coming back. She's already written her resignation. From now on, 'Family Matters' is your territory. I'm coming over to help her pack her things."

"She resigned?"

Lin Guiyan's eyes lit up, and she breathed a long sigh of relief.

Because she knew that the other party had compromised.

The dust settles!

Zhou Haoran didn't answer her, but said calmly, "Editor-in-Chief Lin, please excuse me for now. I need to pack my things. There might be some private items that are not convenient for outsiders to see."

"When did you and Teacher Tang become so close?"

Lin Guiyan found it strange.

Zhou Haoran glanced at her and asked, "Who do I have a bad relationship with? It's a pity that some people seem cold on the outside but are actually kind on the inside. Others, however, stab you in the back."

Lin Guiyan's expression changed slightly, and she explained, "Haoran, this matter has nothing to do with you."

"Really unrelated?"

Zhou Haoran gave a half-smile. Lin Guiyan's lips trembled slightly, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "You might have misunderstood, I'm not quite sure either. But what I said just now was true. If you're interested in me in the future, you can come to me anytime. I can sleep with you three times as an apology."

"Editor-in-Chief Lin, please don't say things like that. You're already married, and our ages aren't suitable."

Zhou Haoran had an upright and righteous look on his face, and a firm determination that allowed him to remain unmoved even when faced with temptation.

Lin Guiyan was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth.

Thinking to myself, isn't this the same time as last year when you were messing around in the dance hall, touching me indiscriminately in the dark?

Now the gentleman has stepped in!
Zhou Haoran completely ignored her.

According to Tang Shiyi, he packed up some important documents and valuables in the office and took them with him.

I don't want the rest, and I'll never come here again.

It only took half an hour.

Zhou Haoran and Hong Zhenru each carried a large suitcase and left the large office of "Family Matters".

Hong Zhenru turned back, glanced longingly at the office, and whispered, "Brother Haoran, are we just leaving like this?"

"Ah."

Zhou Haoran led her towards the sales department and temporarily stored her things in the small office there.

What will happen next?

Hong Zhenru lacked confidence and felt lost about the future.

Zhou Haoran laughed and said, "Don't worry, Teacher Tang said she'll arrange everything for you. It will only get better from now on, not worse."

"Teacher Tang is back?"

Hong Zhenru's eyes lit up.

Zhou Haoran said, "Yeah, I'm back... Let's invite Teacher Tang tonight. Our four-person Justice Team will have dinner with her and discuss our future development."

"Okay."

Hong Zhenru doesn't take Zhou Haoran seriously yet; she places all her hopes on Teacher Tang, hoping that Teacher Tang can get through this and make proper arrangements for herself.

When I got to the sales department, I was dumbfounded.

The office layout is similar to that in the TV series "Family Matters".

There was a large office where everyone worked. There was also a small private office for the leaders... but unexpectedly, Zhou Haoran led her directly to the small office.

"Brother Haoran, this..."

Hong Zhenru looked astonished.

Zhou Haoran took out his key, opened the cabinet door, and beckoned, "Come here and put your things here."

"Brother Haoran, this looks like your office."

Hong Zhenru also realized something.

Zhou Haoran laughed and said, "It was originally mine."

"How could this be?" Hong Zhenru's eyes widened. "Where is the sales manager?"

Zhou Haoran said, "His workstation is outside."

Hong Zhenru was stunned and speechless.

"There's a computer here with games. Would you like to play for a while?"

Zhou Haoran pointed to the desktop computer on his desk.

These are newly installed; Hongxingtai just purchased 255 Lenovo computers from Dongfanglang.

The sales department also received one.

Hong Zhenru dared not play games at work.

Zhou Haoran then ignored her.

One person went upstairs to the office of Deputy Director Zhan Yushan.

There are other people in the office.

Zhou Haoran didn't stand on ceremony and sat down on the sofa, listening to their discussion about the policy on promoting the separation of production and broadcasting issued by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television last year.

I listened for a long time.

Separation of production and broadcasting is a sign of a mature television industry, and it has been practiced abroad for two or three decades.

However, promoting it domestically has encountered numerous difficulties.

Although the State Administration of Radio and Television has issued a document, major television stations across the country are slow to implement it. The pace of reform is too big, and many television station leaders do not have the courage to take it.

After Shan Wendong remained in office, he vigorously promoted reforms and wanted to take the lead in the "separation of production and broadcasting"!
Their discussion revealed that implementation would be very difficult.

The State Administration of Radio and Television has another requirement: programs that have a significant impact on public opinion are not allowed to separate production and broadcasting.

This kind of vague requirement is a real headache.

Perhaps because of Zhou Haoran's unintentional appearance as an outsider, their discussion ended quickly.

Zhan Yushan asked helplessly, "Why are you here?"

Zhou Haoran said, "Something happened in the 'Family Matters' program team recently."

"Yeah, I heard about it."

Zhan Yushan remained calm and composed.

Zhou Haoran stated bluntly: "Lin Guiyan used methods such as forging signatures and fabricating testimonies to frame producer Tang Shiyi."

"Is there still this?"

Zhan Yushan opened his eyes wide.

Zhou Haoran took out Tang Shiyi's resignation letter and sighed, "If this gets out of hand, it will damage the company's reputation and make management difficult. This is Tang Shiyi's resignation letter. Let's just let this matter rest."

Zhan Yushan breathed a sigh of relief, took the resignation letter, but didn't open it, fiddling with it repeatedly in his hand. "Tang Shiyi is an excellent media professional, and I know her very well. Two years ago, the Lifestyle Channel was launching a new program. Only she had the courage to take on this responsibility. This time, I'll talk to the station and try to give her a lighter punishment."

Zhou Haoran laughed and said, "Actually, it's not a bad thing. Didn't you say that I lacked experience and qualifications to organize the 'Host Competition'? Now it's good that we can let her be the producer."

“Her?” Zhan Yushan frowned. “That won’t do. She just got into this kind of trouble and will be punished by the station. It’s not appropriate to let her start a new program.”

"She's been framed!"

But rules are rules.

"Then what should we do?" Zhou Haoran was very unhappy. "She accepted being framed for the sake of the bigger picture. The station should give us some explanation, right? We can't let her suffer all of this for no reason."

To put it another way, as Deputy Director Zhan, you should at least offer some benefits, right?
