After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 922 - 492: Identity Exposed _2
Chen Feng smiled wryly and said, "You see, I knew that telling you would make you worry. That's why I hadn't mentioned it. Don't worry, my company has started making money now. We've repaid most of the debt, principal and interest alike, so you can rest assured."
"Wow! You've really made something of yourself! Launching a satellite quietly. According to your aunt, that TV series you made was a big hit and earned a lot. How much did it actually earn?"
"It did earn some money, but after deducting labor costs, paying various taxes, and repaying debts, the company's profits still have some left — about a few million dollars maybe."
Chen Feng didn't dare to tell the whole truth; he really didn't want to shock his own mom.
"That's good, as long as there's profit. No wonder you've been so generous lately. Now I can rest assured. Although you're making money now, you shouldn't spend it recklessly. You're still paying for your house in Xiu Zhou."
"Yes, yes, I definitely won't spend recklessly."
...
Chen Feng spent over half an hour chatting with his mom, listening to a long list of her nagging advices, before he finally ended the video call.
But clearly, this was just the beginning; it wasn't long before Chen Rui called him.
The reason was simple: he too learned about Chen Feng's film company. Unlike his mom, who hadn't heard of "Mountain Order" or "Please give me more advice in the rest of my life," his elder brother was quite well-informed, easily finding out everything with a quick search on his phone.
It didn't matter that he knew, but the problem was that his wife, who was Chen Feng's sister-in-law, Li Guihong, also found out.
She happened to have a niece who had just graduated from college this year and was looking for a job. So, she asked Chen Rui to call Chen Feng to see if he could arrange a job for her niece.
Chen Feng was quite speechless, but it was really hard to refuse this matter. After all, even his college advisor's sister got a position, so there was no reason to leave out his sister-in-law's niece.
Thus, Chen Feng had to patiently ask about his niece's situation first, such as which university she graduated from, her major, age, personality, and so on.
Li Guihong was beside Chen Rui and relayed everything to Chen Feng accurately.
Her niece was 22 years old and graduated from Lu City University, with a major in International Trade. Furthermore, she passed the English Level Four test and was proficient in computer operation.
Even though her niece's degree was average and her major irrelevant to his company, Chen Feng agreed to let her join in Xiu Zhou immediately, though she would start as a clerk with a starting salary of about three to four thousand.
Of course, Chen Feng needed to clarify this upfront, lest her niece arrives and complains about the salary, creating awkwardness for everyone. It's better to lay everything out ahead.
Li Guihong agreed without hesitation. Mainly because her niece was quite introverted, with an average degree, average communication skills, and average looks, and didn't really have any standout skills. The English Level Four and proficient computer operation are basically things every college graduate has nowadays.
Therefore, she had been hitting walls repeatedly when applying for jobs in her home in Lu City, unsatisfied despite searching for several months.
Now at least she could work in Xiu Province's capital city, and with Chen Feng's elder brother being her uncle, surely Chen Feng wouldn't leave her with nothing.
Having finalized this with his sister-in-law, Chen Feng specifically reminded Chen Rui not to disclose his situation further or let family members spread it around. Otherwise, such requests for favors and job arrangements would only increase, and he'd be bothered to death.
Chen Rui naturally agreed. Then, Chen Feng also sent a voice message to his mom with similar reminders. His mom also agreed.
But even so, Chen Feng felt uneasy, believing that his big boss identity in his hometown was about to be thoroughly exposed.
Sure enough, the next morning, his little uncle called with endless questions about TV filming. Chen Feng barely dealt with him for a few minutes before finding an excuse to hang up, feeling impatient.
There was no doubt his mom had leaked the news to his little uncle. And as time goes on, surely more and more people will know.
Chen Feng didn't have much of a solution. But he long anticipated this situation. If exposure really happens, so be it, as it just means he'll visit his hometown less often in the future.
As for requests and favors around corners in the future, certainly he won't easily agree.
During lunchtime, Chen Feng went to Fuman Building as arranged to dine with the sisters Chen Fang and Chen Fei.
Chen Fang's younger sister Chen Fei was quite pretty; after all, she was only a junior in college, oozing youth. Her voice was sweetly pleasant, with laughter making her very affable.
Upon chatting, he realized her film production knowledge was quite solid, having won a national scholarship, which was really rare and undoubtedly impressive.
Therefore, internally, Chen Feng had no resistance toward her interning at his company. He even felt that if she really was talented, she should definitely be kept at his company, hiring her quickly.
After lunch, leaving Fuman Building at about one-thirty, he led the sisters to Fengmang Film and Television Company. By around two, it was already office hours.
With the boss personally bringing people over for internships, the staff at the company naturally took it seriously. But since Chen Feng wasn't involved in management and the film production department was directly managed by Lu Sijia, Chen Feng specifically introduced the sisters to Lu Sijia.
Then, accompanied by General Manager Lu Sijia, Chen Fei proceeded to report at the film production department.
Having completed this task, Chen Feng left the company with Chen Fang, declined her invitation for tea, and finally returned home.
Just as he went upstairs intending to shower, his mother Zhao Xiaolan sent a video call.
Chen Feng helplessly answered, only to hear his mom angrily ask, "What's the relationship between that girl you accompanied with Little Min today?"
Chen Feng was stunned but quickly reacted, internally annoyed at Fang Min for being so talkative.
"She's my friend."
"Friend? Do you know what she told Little Min? She said she was your girlfriend?" Zhao Xiaolan questioned with a stern face. Wu Mengting was someone she endorsed as her daughter-in-law, overtaking the previous Sun Xiaorui, let alone the newly emerged Jin Xinyan.
Moreover, one woman after another around her son made him seem too frivolous, which she couldn't stand.
Chen Feng didn't expect Jin Xinyan to introduce herself to Fang Min that way and could only explain, "She must've been joking. We're just friends. Though she has some feelings for me, I've never accepted them."
Hearing his explanation, Zhao Xiaolan's tone eased a bit, but she still warned, "No matter how many women you're involved with now, remember I've chosen Little Ting as your future wife. You'd better not mess around and hurt her. Otherwise, I won't let you off."
Chen Feng could only return a wry smile in response.
