Golden Years in the World of Film and Television

After Shi Yi returned to his seat, before Han Tao could speak, seeing his eyes leave the computer, Qin Shi spoke first:

"Hello, Senior Brother Han, my name is Qin Shi. I'm your schoolmate and your junior sister. I came here specifically to join you!"

"Hello, Qin Shi, I don't like beating around the bush. Since you're a junior from Handan University, I'll be frank. You already have a lawyer's license, so why did you choose to be my assistant?

Logically speaking, with your current level and the law firm you previously interned at, you should at least be promoted to junior partner. I could even give you a chance to become a mid-level partner, but isn't being an assistant a waste of your talent?"

Han Tao looked up at the girl opposite him who looked somewhat like Yang Mi. Although he had some doubts about her purpose, she waited quietly for seven or eight minutes without getting impatient. This patience was worthy of praise.

Besides, Qin Shi graduated from Handan University. Even if someone arranged her to be by his side, he had to give her some face. Therefore, he proposed to let her be a junior partner. Although she had to go through an assessment, it was better than an assistant.

Naturally, assistants are all trainee lawyers. They don't have many opportunities to handle cases. They usually organize materials and related documents or run errands. The only thing they do is go to the community to do legal education, just like Song Xiu.

Qin Shi smiled, took out a letter of recommendation from her bag, put it on the desk, and pushed it to Han Tao.

"I'm the vice president of this year's student union. You've been my idol and role model for so many years, and I don't feel wronged to be your assistant.

Relatively speaking, I feel even more fortunate. Your professional ability, character, and even your interpersonal skills are all worth learning from. That's why I specifically asked for the letter of recommendation that Professor Wu requested. You can trust me completely."

Qin Shi had already expected that Han Tao would have some doubts. After all, Han Tao had offended the Zhao siblings in Handong, and it had caused quite a big fuss. It was said that it was finally settled only after Teacher Gao and other seniors stepped in.

But she is not a member of the Zhao family. Qin Shi came here for personal reasons. Han Tao was also a well-known figure in the school. He was the president of the student union of the previous term. Qin Shi had heard his deeds discussed by her senior classmates since she entered the school. At that time, she especially admired this senior whom she had never met.

Moreover, this admiration had been buried for seven or eight years. In addition, her family was from Shanghai, so it was natural for her to refuse the retention of her original law firm, and also rejected the Chengyuhui Law Firm recommended by her good friend. She came to Mingtang to apply for a job and volunteered to be Han Tao's assistant.

After reading it for a while, Han Tao put down the letter of recommendation and said, "Junior Sister Qin, to have received such a letter of recommendation means that Teacher Wu likes you very much. You can indeed be considered one of his own. However, even if you want to work with me, there is no need to be an assistant. It would be a waste of your talent. Wouldn't it be better to join my team as a partner?"

"No, I think being your assistant is better!"

Qin Shi looked at Han Tao sincerely, his eyes filled with determination and sincerity as he responded, "I've learned that you've been very busy since returning to the Magic City, and you don't even have much time to mentor an apprentice. Therefore, the position of team member or general partner is not what I want.

The reason why I work with you is not only because of personal admiration, but also because I want to learn more, including building up my network of contacts. I also think you need an assistant with strong professional capabilities.

You're not just an ordinary partner or even a senior partner; you're the director of a firm. If your assistant is just an unlicensed intern, you'll need to handle many things yourself. Therefore, you need a licensed paralegal who can be on call at any time and also handle things independently.

Hearing this, Han Tao nodded. "As expected of you, Teacher Wu recommended you. She thinks highly of you. Now it seems to be true. You convinced me with your own reasons."

After saying that, Han Tao stood up and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Qin Shi, who also had a happy face. From the conversation just now, it can be seen that Qin Shi is an independent person with his own persistence, and he does not hide his ambitions and says them directly.

In fact, Han Tao didn't know that this was Qin Shi's character formed by the influence of his family environment. In the original plot, Qin Shi even falsified his marital status in order to get promoted in his career. His purpose was very clear.

However, her advantage is her sincerity. In the plot, she respects her boss Tang Yihui very much because of gratitude and, of course, awe. After all, she plays a very important role in her promotion.

"Thank you, Senior Brother. Please take good care of me in the future. I will complete any task you assign to me without compromise!"

Qin Shi is no longer a young girl who just graduated. She is already 27 years old and has been interning for a year. It can be said that she has been tempered in society for more than a year and knows that opportunities cannot be missed.

Han Tao nodded, picked up the phone and sent a message to Lina, then said, "Go find Lina later and ask her to take you to the Human Resources Department to go through the procedures again and transfer your relationship to the director's office.

Since you've come to me, your senior, specifically to join us, I can't treat you unfairly. I'll start with you as a junior partner. If you pass the assessment in six months, you can be promoted to an intermediate partner."

"Thank you, Senior Brother. I'll go find Sister Lina then. She told me that you'll be going to Daishan soon and there's a lot of things waiting for you at the law firm. I won't cause you any more trouble."

After saying that, Qin Shi left Han Tao's office very happily, but did not go directly to find Lina. Instead, he went to the salaried lawyer's office area, where there were two classmates.

One of them saw her coming over and couldn't help but smile. He asked, "Shi Shi, what's going on? Why are you so excited? Did you meet your idol?"

Qin Shi couldn't suppress her inner joy and quickly shared, "Director Han recognized me as his junior sister and agreed to let me be his assistant. I will join the director's office as a junior partner. Although there is a six-month probation period, I am confident!"

"Really? Are you an assistant, or have you joined the director's team? I thought I could start as a senior lawyer, which was already pretty good, but who knew that what you gave up would come back and you would join the director as you wished!"

"Of course it's true. Who says assistants have to be interns and not junior partners or senior associates? A top lawyer like Brother Han must have a highly professional assistant to handle miscellaneous matters!"

"Okay, okay, you're right. As usual, you get what you want. Please take care of the sisters in the future. I used to think that my status as an alumnus would give me preferential treatment, but I didn't expect to see so many senior brothers and sisters here. I'm lucky to be one level higher than the salary.

I can read books with this. Director Han’s interpersonal relationships are really amazing, and his emotional intelligence is also high. If I had known this earlier, I would have asked Teacher Wu for a letter of recommendation!

"Don't make a fuss. Senior Brother Han was a big shot in school back then. His photo is still hanging in our student union. How can he not have high emotional intelligence and a wide network of contacts?

Okay, I just came here to share this with you. Let's go have a drink together after get off work to celebrate. I have to go to Sister Lina to handle the paperwork now."

"Okay, go quickly, otherwise..." The staff in the department are off work. I really envy them for living such a carefree life.

Okay, then you go ahead and get busy, Tiantian. I'm leaving first. See you tonight! "

Chapter 630 Chen Nanxing and Xu Hongdou

After finishing the work at hand, He Xingyun returned to Han Tao's office again and walked in with a lady. Judging from her dress, she was a typical working woman.

"Master, this is Zhou Yawen's sister, Ms. Zhou Yanan. Do you have time now?"

"Ten minutes left, sit down and talk!"

Han Tao looked at the watch on his wrist, stood up and asked the customer to sit down. He Xingyun also sat down next to her, and took out a pen and notebook in a serious manner, ready to take notes.

Han Tao gave her an encouraging look for her learning spirit, then turned to the working woman Zhou Yanan and said:

"Hello, Ms. Zhou. We met your sister on the plane today. Due to time constraints, she only briefly explained the general situation. If it is convenient for you, could you please tell us more about the situation?"

"Hello Director Han, thank you for helping me!"

Zhou Yawen thanked him first, then organized her words and continued, "I've worked at Qing'an Investment Company for six years. Last month, I found out I was pregnant, so I thought about applying for maternity benefits. However, at the beginning of this month, the Human Resources Department suddenly notified me that I was suspected of leaking company secrets and planned to fire me..."

After the other party finished speaking, Han Tao nodded and continued, "Well, I understand what you mean. Now, what is your request?"

Zhou Yawen hesitated for a moment before responding, "I'm asking for compensation. Now that it's come to this, I don't think there's anything good that can come of staying. So, why not fight for the greatest reasonable benefit?"

Han Tao glanced at He Xingyun and saw that she was taking notes very seriously. He smiled slightly and continued to think about Zhou Yanan and asked:

"Since your company fired you for leaking confidential information, could you please tell me in detail what confidential information you leaked?"

"I just chatted with a few colleagues who were familiar with the situation. It wasn't really confidential. It was just some of the company's investment channels, the flow of raised funds, and investment directions, etc."

After listening to Zhou Yanan's words, Han Tao immediately grasped the key point and asked, "Is this information you mentioned about channels that are already being invested, in operation, or are they preparing to invest in?"

Zhou Yanan answered without hesitation: "Yes, I have invested in it, and it is almost finished. Otherwise, I would not know some of the details..."

Five minutes later, Zhou Yanan finished telling Han Tao what she knew. As expected, it was about the project between Qing'an Investment Company and Lianchuang. What she said also filled in the previously inadequate chain of evidence.

Han Tao pondered for a moment before continuing, "I'm aware of what you've described. Please prepare an employee handbook, labor contract, and the investment projects you've been responsible for. I'll have someone accompany you to Qing'an Investment Company. If there's anything you can't resolve, I'll come back and help you."

"Okay, sorry to trouble Director Han. I'll go prepare the information now."

"Ms. Zhou, you're welcome. This is what I should do as your attorney. I have things to do here. Let He Xingyun help you sort out the documents!"

Han Tao turned to look at He Xingyun and instructed, "Go find Chen Ran or Xu Jie later and let them take a look at the materials you've compiled. Then they'll accompany you to Qing'an Investment Company. They'll tell you what you need to do."

"Okay, Master. I'll ensure I complete the task. I'll accompany Ms. Zhou to print and organize the necessary documents. I'll go find Team Leader Chen and Lawyer Xu shortly."

He Xingyun knew very well that he could not take cases independently before obtaining a license, so he nodded in assurance, stood up, sent Han Tao out of the office, and then took Zhou Yanan to prepare the documents.

..............................

At the same time, in a room at the Park Hyatt Hotel not far from the law firm, two girls were sorting their things while chatting.

The one with long hair, a slim figure and beautiful face stopped the pale girl next to her and said, "Nanxing, leave your things over there and I'll sort them out. Don't get tired."

Knowing that her bestie was concerned about her, but Chen Nanxing didn't want to become a useless person, so while helping, she teased her bestie Xu Hongdou:

"It's okay. I'm not as delicate as you say. Besides, the car sent by your lawyer Han has arrived. I guess he will be here soon. How can I keep him waiting?"

"What are you talking about? What do you mean by my lawyer Han? I've always said that our relationship isn't what you think it is. It was just a coincidence last time."

"Coincidence? That should be called a hero saving a damsel in distress. You're just being stubborn. I don't know you yet, and I don't know who it is that's been talking about Han Tao all this time!"

Chen Nanxing rolled her eyes at her best friend Xu. No one knew Xu Hongdou better than herself. Although Xu Hongdou was no longer a little girl after working hard alone in the big city, she was a thoughtful and mature woman. She had also seen all kinds of human relationships and no longer believed in so-called love.

But who can understand that the stronger girls like these are, the more they often hope to find someone to protect them. After all, everyone has moments of vulnerability.

The reason is very simple. Although they are strong, they are also women. They will also feel tired and exhausted. At this time, they will also hope that there is someone who can stand in front of them, even if it is just to give them a little support.

If he doesn't feel that he is loved and cared for when he is most vulnerable, he will naturally fall in love with the other person. So the last time Xu Hongdou was sick and sent to the hospital by Han Tao, the seed had already been planted in his heart.

Xu Hongdou blushed when she saw her best friend saw through her, and changed the subject, "I'm not like you said. Besides, I'm not doing this for you. He was the one who said he had a cure for your illness. How could you take my kindness for granted?"

Seeing her best friend's angry expression, Chen Nanxing stopped teasing her and buckled her suitcase. "Hongdou, do you think my illness can really be cured? If not, I want to go to Yunnan while I can still walk."

"Nanxing, don't let your imagination run wild. I looked up the information. The expert Han Tao mentioned is a retired Chinese medicine doctor of national level. He has indeed cured many patients with early-onset urination, and it's not painful at all.

Besides, the sanatorium has a great environment. As you can see in the photos, it's built on the hillside, and the mountain is covered with tea trees. It's so beautiful. This kind of beautiful place with mountains and water will also help your physical cultivation."

"Well, it's already like this, it can't get any worse!"

Chen Nanxing sighed a few times, looked at her best friend whose eyes were full of concern, and did not continue the topic. Instead, she smiled slightly and said:

"It's really exciting. The description on the website is really beautiful, especially the tea mountains shrouded in mist in the early morning, which makes people yearn for it.

But I don't know what the actual scenery is like. I heard that the pictures online are all retouched. If the environment is really that good, it would be a pleasure to live anywhere, and it wouldn't matter whether I go to Yunnan or not.

Seeing that Chen Nanxing still wanted to help, Xu Hongdou directly pushed her hand away and said, "You are a patient now, so you just need to take good care of your body. I can do the rough work like carrying the luggage. Can you please check if there is anything left?"

"Okay, thank you, Anko!"

Chen Nanxing didn't argue. He stepped back and thanked him, then continued, "I just checked everything. I didn't miss anything. You can go downstairs now."

"You're saying thank you to me for our relationship?"

Xu Hongdou rolled her eyes at Chen Nanxing, then walked out with her two suitcases, saying angrily, "Come on, if you say that again, I'll be angry."

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. I just know you're the best!"

"Crap, stop being so cheesy, help me press the elevator button, let's hurry down, we still have to check out."

"Well, just carry the luggage and I'll check out. I can handle this little thing!"

...........................

Chapter 631 Friendship Beyond Family

After leaving the law firm, Han Tao got directly into his Pullman. While instructing Wang Xiaodong to drive, he opened the Doudou app and looked at some of the hot push notifications on it, smiling with satisfaction.

Now, it is moving forward on the shoulders of giants. The Doudou platform can be said to have far greater influence than in its previous life. In addition, it has cooperated with the official since its promotion, so many local TV stations with strong imaging power have also moved in.

This caused a chain reaction. After all, with the official participation, the environment was very good at the beginning, and some positive people and things could also get the attention of most people.

Similarly, those infuriating injustices and social news that aroused public outrage began to ferment as the number of Doudou users continued to increase, providing many desperate people with a channel to seek help.

The system prompt sound suddenly rang in his mind. Han Tao put away his phone and looked out the window. The Pullman also slowly stopped at the door of the hotel. At this time, Xu Hongdou and the pale-faced Chen Nanxing were standing beside the Coaster. Guan Xiaofan was talking to them, and Liu Mingliang was putting two large suitcases in the luggage compartment.

Han Tao straightened his clothes, opened the door, got out of the car and walked towards the few people. Chen Nanxing and Xu Hongdou's eyes naturally fell on Han Tao.

"Han Lu... Hello, Brother Han, nice to see you again. I'm sorry to have troubled you this time in Modu!"

Xu Hongdou greeted him politely. She originally wanted to call him Lawyer Han, but thought that this title was too official, so she temporarily changed it to Brother Han. After all, this was a private matter, and her best friend Chen Nanxing's hopes were also on him, so they should be closer.

Chen Nanxing's performance was much more relaxed. This was her second meeting with Han Tao, and they had a good first impression, so she extended her hand openly:

"You've hit the nail on the head, Great Doctor Han. From now on, my life is in your hands!

But you must not feel any pressure or burden. Although I say this, everything can be left to fate. After all, this is the fate of sisters. Even living one more day is a blessing."

Han Tao shook hands with Chen Nanxing and consoled her with a smile, "Miss Nanxing, you're still so carefree. Keep this attitude. Trust me, there will be no problem. Since someone as skilled as me can detect your condition in advance, the chances of Elder Sun being able to cure you are very high."

"Then I'll lend you my blessing, but I have one small request, which is to offer me a job. I did some research before coming here, and both the Jingyan Group and the Longji Group under your name have hotel businesses.

Hongdou and I both studied related majors, but she's in hotel management, and I'm more specialized in hotel and B&B development and market research, so I think I can help out, free of charge!

After saying that, Chen Nanxing winked at Han Tao. She had resigned after learning that he was sick, and Xu Hongdou had also given up her promotion in order to accompany her, so she came out to repay her gratitude and help her best friend.

Of course, this is also the only capital she can use to repay him now. Chen Nanxing's job over the years is to inspect the hotel, including the internal and external environment, as well as the surrounding entertainment facilities, and then come up with plans and write reports, so his ability is beyond doubt.

This is exactly why she is not afraid of hardships. She is so busy that she doesn't even have time to find a boyfriend. Even if she meets someone she likes, she has no time to cultivate feelings.

Han Tao also saw that this was a strong-willed girl, so he smiled and said, "Welcome, welcome. It just so happens that Longji is developing a tourism project in Daishan, which includes a resort hotel and a B&B restaurant. You can definitely recuperate and work at the same time. However, you still need to be paid. Otherwise, how will you pay for your medical expenses and the sanatorium fees?"

"How can that be? If you hadn't realized that I might not know until the late stages of the disease, I would have been dead. I can't repay you for saving my life, so don't refuse. Besides, I still have some savings."

"Since you know I'm your savior, then obey me. I'm not a capitalist, and getting paid for work is a matter of course. Let's be fair."

Han Tao waved his hand and directly concluded the matter. He admired Chen Nanxing, a girl. She could be described as a social toughie with a very outgoing and cheerful personality.
