I was slacking off on a dating reality show when the female guests treated me like a treasure chest.

Chapter 141 The Script of A Chinese Odyssey

It's a familiar feeling...

Chen Nian was once again experiencing the familiar feeling of "three women make a drama," but now, there were four women and two dramas unfolding before him.

They talked about filming for a while, then about singing, and suddenly, the conversation turned to him.

Chen Nian could only try to minimize his presence and eat quietly.

However, there were some topics that he was quite interested in, such as the filming issues that Wan Cai'er talked about, and Liu Ting, Wan Cai'er, and Su Wanwan exchanging their experiences.

"By the way, what's going on since you came back? No new scripts?" Wan Cai'er asked, puzzled.

"Yes, but they're all TV dramas, which are too long. You know how long it takes to film a TV drama," Liu Ting said helplessly.

"Isn't it the same with movies?" Wan Cai'er rolled her eyes at her. "You clearly don't want to act. What's wrong with you? Are you really going to stay in the music industry?"

"I'll take a look first, and then I'll think about it some more," Liu Ting said nonchalantly.

"Speaking of filming, I remember you mentioned 'A Chinese Odyssey' on the show, didn't you, Brother Nian?" Su Wanwan asked.

Reminded by her, Wan Cai'er became curious and asked Chen Nian if the script had been finalized.

Chen Nian smiled slightly and said, "No, but I'll try my best to see if there's a chance."

After the group finished eating, the three of them followed Wan Cai'er and Su Wanwan to the film set for a visit. Chen Nian looked at the filming equipment and costumes up close and found them fascinating.

It's a pity he didn't get a chance to see the script, otherwise he could have seen how other people wrote their scripts.

After walking around for a while, around 3 p.m., they said goodbye and left, as staying any longer would interfere with the other people memorizing their lines and getting their makeup done.

The car got back on the highway, and Chen Nian got out of the car.

"Then I won't see you off tonight. I'll wait for your good news," Chen Nian said to Liu Ting.

"Don't worry, just wait to collect the money and that's it." Liu Ting waved from the passenger seat, and then Su Xiao drove her back to the hotel.

As the image in the rearview mirror gradually disappeared, Liu Ting sighed, "Although I'm a little reluctant, life is what we have to face now!"

"Yes, I want to work hard to make money and then leave Xinghe," Su Xiao said firmly.

"Alright, let's see who joins his studio first." Liu Ting chuckled. The two bickered occasionally along the way. When they got back to the hotel, she picked up her luggage and then asked Su Xiao to take her to the airport.

Meanwhile, Chen Nian returned to his apartment and immediately sat down at his computer desk. He had visited the film set today and found it quite interesting, so he decided to take advantage of the moment and try writing a script.

Therefore, he specifically looked for online templates and wrote according to their style.

He thought it would be a boring task, but he ended up getting completely absorbed in it as he wrote, muttering lines from A Chinese Odyssey.

By the time I came to my senses, it was already dark.

Chen Nian looked at the script in the computer document and was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect that as he filled in the pages, he would actually produce something.

However, many of the lines were altered by him on the spot.

"This isn't right."

"The night is long, and I can't sleep..."

"In this case, I'm simply focusing my attention on one point to change my previous perspective on things..."

Chen Nian corrected him little by little, and with a standardized script, he found it greatly helped him remember his lines.

Just as he was excitedly correcting him, he heard chewing sounds behind him, which startled Chen Nian.

He turned around and saw Lin Ran sitting on the sofa eating an apple. When she saw him looking over, she said quietly, "If you want some, peel it yourself. This apple took me a lot of effort to peel."

"Oh my god..."

"When did you learn this ability to do things without anyone noticing?"

Chen Nian was fed up. Ever since he moved next door to Lin Zai, this guy would float over from time to time, which was quite scary.

"This time I knocked on the door," Lin Ran said seriously. After saying that, she got up and went to Chen Nian's side, looking at the script in the document on the computer.

"Is this a music video or something?"

"MV, this is a movie script," Chen Nian replied after a moment's hesitation.

"Oh, you know what? I almost forgot, we haven't even come up with a music video yet for the songs for Su Xiao and Liu Ting." Chen Nian realized that he needed to talk to them about it.

"I thought you were out of ideas, so I asked the company to help you come up with some ideas," Lin Ran said.

"Really? Then let me see what you've come up with. The song 'Listening to the Sea' should be easy to come up with." Chen Nian saw that Xinghe was already helping, which saved him some trouble.

"A movie script, let me see. So you've been busy with this stuff these past few days. I thought you went to the company." Lin moved a stool over, sat down, and picked up the mouse to start flipping through it.

"I really need to go to the company tomorrow; I haven't found a financial advisor yet." Chen Nian gave up his seat, took an apple from the refrigerator, and sat down to peel it.

Lin Ran scrolled through the script, becoming engrossed in it soon, muttering to herself, "Wow, this script is great. How come you've never told me this story before?"

She realized that if this script could be made into a film, it would be excellent; it seemed a bit comical, yet it held a unique meaning.

A dozen minutes later, Lin Ran put down the mouse, breathed a sigh of relief, and asked, "You're not planning to make a movie out of this script anytime soon, are you?"

"How could that be? This is written in advance so that it can be revised later. It will be a year or two before it's made into a movie," Chen Nian said with a smile.

He doesn't think he can do that anytime soon.

Then, Chen Nian and Lin discussed the company's current situation, and Chen Nian sought her advice.

With Lin Zai's guidance, Chen Nian found that many things that had been confusing him suddenly became clear.

The next day, after waking up at noon, Chen Nian's first thing to do was to look for information on financial outsourcing online. He soon made an appointment with a finance person to meet at the company at 2 p.m.

Financial services outsourcing isn't complicated; there are many people in this industry who specialize in providing services for various types of companies.

Social insurance and housing fund contributions, tax payments, and salary payment accounts, etc.

After finishing his meal, Chen Nian went to the company to open the door. While waiting, he ordered some company supplies online, such as a photocopier, a water dispenser, and A4 paper.

These were all compiled last night after Lin Ran reminded me.

At 2 p.m., a young girl arrived at the company.

This is Yang Chuanhua, the accountant he met online.

"Hello, are you General Manager Nian?" the other party asked politely.

"Yes, it is Yang Chuanhua, right?" Chen Nian came out from behind the front desk and led the other person to the lounge area to sit down. "As you can see, this is my company. I've already told you the details online."

"Look, here's how I can cooperate with you. We currently have three employees..."

Chen Nian explained the basic information to the other party, and Yang Chuanhua immediately gave her advice and suggested what was needed.

Chen Nian found that he could understand most of what he heard.

"By the way, Mr. Nian, this is my personal information." The other party took out a document and handed it to Chen Nian.

Chen Nian looked at the other person's information; 24 years old, very young.

But it was precisely because he was young that he decided to seek out the other party, because those who were more mature usually had multiple companies under their belts, and even if they were full of energy, things would get chaotic.

The girl in front of me doesn't have a formal job, but she helps with bookkeeping at a relative's supermarket. She has professional knowledge but lacks professional work experience.

"You know what to do, right?" Chen Nian asked.

"Yes, I know. Although I've never worked in the company's finance department, I basically helped with social security and salary payments at my uncle's supermarket," Yang Chuanhua said earnestly.

"Okay, then I'll leave this to you." Chen Nian didn't waste any time and handed over the company to the other party directly, mainly because Sister Xia, Li Qing, and Jing Ting would be officially joining the company tomorrow.

This matter requires the finance department's assistance in handling their social security and other related matters.

Yang Chuanhua was surprised. She didn't expect to actually get the job. She had posted her information for two months but hadn't received a single order.

"Don't worry, leave it to me. I guarantee there won't be the slightest mistake," Yang Chuanhua said confidently.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you to come over tomorrow. Tomorrow is the official start date for a few of our employees." Chen Nian made an appointment with the other party.

As for the fees, it's quite simple, since the other party is an individual, he only needs to pay per session.

Two hundred each time, settled after each deposit.

He thought to himself that when the time was right, he could just hire the other party directly.

After seeing Yang Chuanhua off, Chen Nian breathed a sigh of relief. Now there was almost nothing to do, and he could resume normal business tomorrow without any problems.

As for the opening ceremony and such, we won't bother with anything extra.

Right now, we need to find singers for a few other songs. Luckily, Lin sent him some information last night, so let's see if there are any suitable singers.

Chen Nian sat down at the front desk, turned on his computer, and then opened the singer information that Lin Ran had sent him.

"Wow, more than twenty?" He was a little surprised, not expecting the other party to be so generous, giving him more than twenty singers to choose from at once.

"Three from Xinghe? That's not too many, but it'll be fine if they're suitable..."

"Are there seven types of flying leaps?"

Looking at the companies associated with these singers, Chen Nian gained a deeper understanding of Feizong Entertainment's capabilities. Three of these seven companies were the ones Liu Ting had introduced to him yesterday.

The next moment, Chen Nian clicked on the a cappella audio of one of the singers.

These songs are crucial to the development of his studio, and the singer must select the most suitable ones.

Before long, a deep voice caught Chen Nian's attention. His eyes lit up, and he wrote the word "dusk" in the notes column to remember the corresponding song.

Chen Nian listened to the voices of more than twenty singers until sunset.

Ultimately, five of them were quite well-matched.

One of them is in Guangzhou, two others are in Shanghai, and the remaining two are in Beijing.

He wasn't too surprised by the result; nowadays, Haidu and Yandu can be considered two giants in the entertainment industry.

Chen Nian pondered for a moment. He was going to Zhou Yu's place next Friday, so he could use this week to check if there were any problems with the company's operations and, while he was at it, invite the singer from Yangcheng, who was a good match, to come and audition.

After this is all done, I'll go to Haidu on Friday to settle Zhou Yu's matter and also check out those two singers in Haidu who are a good match for me.

"As for Yandu... let's see if we need to go there."

"That's enough for today. Go back and rest. We'll officially open for business tomorrow!" Chen Nian closed his laptop, stood up to stretch his limbs, and then prepared to pack up and go home.

Suddenly, the phone on the table vibrated, and a familiar name lit up.

"Xia Yao?" Chen Nian was somewhat surprised. "Why are you calling me at this hour?"
