The queen is here again

Chapter 50 The Empress is here again

Haoyue Media’s approval came in early March.Grace forwarded an email from the group to Gao Huan and added her unique blessing: “Congratulations, you’ve got your playground.”

In the following days, Gao Huan worked non-stop.

Together with Grace, we decided on a new office address, not far from Haoyue Europe, on the first floor of a corner building, which is more humane than a tall building with glass curtain walls.I also made a recruitment list with people and conducted interviews one by one. Because the office was not decorated, they were all conducted in a coffee shop near the company.Looks like a leather bag company.

There was a girl who was applying for a creative coordinator job. In the middle of the conversation, she asked, “What type of content do you do?”

Gao Huan thought for a while and said: “There is no type yet.”

The girl smiled politely, probably having a lot of alpacas flying through her mind.

One day after taking a shower, Gao Huan weighed himself for the first time in a long time and found that he had gained eight pounds.I couldn’t eat a hot meal every day, I just took a bite of whatever I grabbed, and there was no fixed time.The fencing lessons that I could still find time to practice have all stopped.He sighed, thinking to himself, he was well fed by overwork.

At the beginning of May, the company’s decoration was completed and the furniture was in place.The small building is an old building. There is only a call panel and a row of small buttons at the door. It used to be a temporary printed name plate, but now a new metal plate – Haoyue Media – is engraved. It is so small that visitors need to look for it before they can see it.

This afternoon, Gao Huan and his assistant Olivia were still cleaning up their office together when the doorbell rang.

Olivia answered the door, and a familiar voice came out. Gao Huan quickly motioned to his assistant to open the door, and he ran to the door in a few steps.

——The queen is here.

He was officially appointed as the vice president of Haoyue Group a few years ago, but Gao Xuefeng still added “and special assistant to the chairman.”

With such a title, there is only one reason why he came to see a small subsidiary under an overseas branch: Gao Xuefeng was worried about his son.

The Empress Wang was wearing a double-breasted dark gray trench coat, her hair was combed back meticulously, and her eyebrows seemed to have been plucked, with the roots neatly arranged on her high eyebrow arch.Gao Huan opened the door and made a greeting gesture to invite him in, with a smile that couldn’t be hidden on his face.

“The empress has arrived, and the plum blossoms are shining brightly.”

Olivia didn’t understand, but looking at her boss’s respectful attitude, she guessed that the other party had a high status and was standing next to Gao Huan.

When Wang Yuan entered the door, he looked at Gao Huan first as usual.Gao Huan subconsciously touched his beard that had not been shaved for two days, thinking that he was going to say that he was inhumane.Unexpectedly, Wang Yuan just patted him on the shoulder: “Are you tired?” Then Gao Huan quickly introduced him and Olivia to each other, helped Wang Yuan take his windbreaker, and hung it on the coat rack left by a tenant at the door.

Then he scanned around the office as he walked: the display screen had just been connected, there were still some untied threads on the table, and there were cardboard boxes piled in the corners that he had not had time to throw away.

“You are so simple.”

“It’s enough to be better than the leather bag company.” Gao Huan put his hands in his pockets and followed Wang Yuan, “Isn’t this the only reason you came all the way?”

Wang Yuan glanced at him and then at the assistant: “Well, I’m not here to see your office decoration. Bring me your account.”

They spent the afternoon in their new office, going through budgets, contracts, and hiring lists one by one.Gao Huan was able to explain most of the items in detail, and he took note of some that he couldn’t explain at the moment and would send them to Wang Yuan via email later.

In the evening, Wang Yuan closed the description of the last available position, leaned back in his chair, and said with a hint of fatigue in his voice: “To be honest, I didn’t expect your dad to really approve this project.”

“Why don’t you approve it? It has a great future!” Gao Huan still wanted to say something.

“If this had been done ten years ago, he would never have approved it.” Wang Yuan did not look at Gao Huan and smiled softly, “It is true that the older you get, the more you spoil your children.”

Gao Huan was speechless. He himself noticed the subtle changes in Gao Xuefeng. Although the tone in which he spoke to him could not be described as “gentle”, the pressure he had in his childhood was almost gone.

“Also,” Wang Yuan paused and lowered his voice, “Grace is the CEO of Europe, not your logistics. Don’t let her think you are backing her.”

“I know,” Gao Huan put away the smile on his face and nodded solemnly, “Old Gao dotes on his children, but others don’t.”

“Okay, it’s good to know,” Wang Yuan stood up, closed the stack of documents, “Let’s go.”

“No, let’s have dinner together tonight?” Gao Huan also stood up.

“We have an appointment.” Wang Yuan stood up and walked out. When he passed by Gao Huan, he patted his belly, which had recently been overworked. “Don’t eat, you little belly. And – shave and get your hair trimmed.”

In the evening, Wang Yuan and Grace made an appointment at a British-style bar near Clapham Mon.The warm lamps are hung low in the bar, and the wooden floor, bar chairs, and bar chairs are all dark maroon, giving it a calm but not old-fashioned feeling.The waiters wore dark aprons and were distracted, as if they were just experiencing life here rather than actually serving customers.

“This store is good,” Wang Yuan looked up at the bar. The countertop was polished and the glass was hanging above. “Do you come here often?”

“Yes, it’s close to home.” Grace also followed Wang Yuan’s gaze and said, “As the Romans do, I will come here for Sunday roast.”

“Coming with my daughter? How is she?”

Grace has a fifteen-year-old daughter from her ex-husband.Although she does not shy away from talking about her daughter, once a working woman lets others realize that you have other lives, it is easy to be questioned about your work intensity, decisiveness, and even ambition.Over time, she got used to keeping silent about private matters.

“Thanks, she’s fine. But puberty is here, you know.”

“Haha, I can imagine. Are you a strict mother?”

“Children today, you can’t be strict even if you want to,” Grace’s eyes flashed with a light that was rarely seen at ordinary times, “I just try to be as principled as possible.”

Wang Yuan took a sip of beer and said, “The same goes for the chairman, but his recent principles are a bit unexpected.”

Grace frowned slightly, her smile disappeared, and she waited for Wang Yuan to continue.

“I didn’t expect him to criticize Haoyue Media,” Wang Yuan showed a kind smile, “but he believes in you. When I handed it to him, he asked whether you reported it or Gao Huan wrote it himself.”

“Hey, I’ve actually been thinking about it for a long time,” Grace said with a wry smile, “But looking at Gao Huan’s behavior and not reporting it, he might go do something on his own, so it’s better to do it officially. It’s safer.”

Wang Yuan and Grace looked at each other and smiled. There was a helplessness that they both understood in their smiles – fathers doted on their children, but they had to watch to prevent their children from setting the house on fire and themselves burning down the house – the two raised their glasses and clinked them: “To Haoyue Media!”
