A reborn mother longs for her daughter's happiness.

Chapter 231 Watching a Movie (1)

It was a typical Friday afternoon. Sunlight streamed through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the conference table in the meeting room. Li Yuan, the company's female chairperson, dressed in a sharp business suit and elegant high heels, sat at the head of the table, presiding over the weekly high-level meeting.

General Manager Chen, with her neat short hair and shrewd, capable eyes, sat next to Li Yuan. The other senior executives were also seated, and a serious yet tense atmosphere filled the conference room.

The meeting had been going on for a while, with everyone discussing quarterly results and work plans for the next quarter. Suddenly, Li Yuan seemed to have thought of something, and slammed her hand on the table, startling everyone.

Li Yuan: "Hey everyone, we're so busy every day, it's time to find some fun and relaxation for our employees."

Sister Chen looked at Li Yuan with a puzzled expression: "Chairwoman Li, what brilliant idea have you come up with?"

Li Yuan smiled mysteriously: "I think we should organize all the employees, including colleagues from the subsidiary, to go see a movie together!"

The moment this suggestion was made, the meeting room erupted in chaos.

Marketing Director Xiao Wang pushed up his glasses and was the first to speak: "Chairman Li, that's a good idea, but what movie should we watch? That's a tough choice."

Li Yuan crossed her arms and said confidently, "That's easy! I recently heard that 'Ne Zha 2' has been released and is receiving rave reviews. Let's watch that one!"

Old Zhang from the R&D department scratched his head and said with a worried look, "Chairman Li, isn't 'Ne Zha 2' an animated film? Our company has so many employees, with a wide age range. Will they all like watching it?"

Li Yuan glared at Lao Zhang: "Lao Zhang, don't underestimate this animated film. The first 'Nezha' was a huge hit across the country, loved by people of all ages. Besides, we're just here for fun and to relax, who cares if it's an animated film or not."

Sister Chen chimed in, "Chairman Li is right. My child just went to see it a few days ago and has been telling me how beautiful it is ever since."

At this moment, Ms. Liu from the finance department frowned and expressed her concerns: "Chairman Li, organizing a movie trip for all employees will cost a lot, especially with our budget..."

Li Yuan waved her hand generously and said, "Sister Liu, this little bit of money is nothing. Consider it a benefit for the employees. Besides, happy employees mean higher work efficiency, so this money is well spent!"

Xiao Zhao from the Human Resources Department also stood up to express her opinion: "Chairman Li, I think watching a movie is a really great idea. But we need to consider the schedule; we can't let it interfere with work."

Li Yuan nodded: "Xiao Zhao is right, we need to think about this carefully. Sister Chen, what do you think?"

After thinking for a moment, Sister Chen said, "How about we choose a weekend? Everyone can rest then, and we won't have to rush."

Xiao Wang from the marketing department offered a different opinion: "There are too many people on weekends, and it's hard to book tickets for the movie theater. Besides, the employees might have their own plans for the weekend. I think it would be better to choose a weekday afternoon, arrange the work in advance, and then give everyone a half-day off after the movie."

This suggestion received a lot of support, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Li Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Hmm, Xiao Wang's idea is good. Let's do it this way. Next Wednesday afternoon, all the employees will go to the movies."

With the date and movie confirmed, everyone started discussing other details.

Xiao Li from the administration department said with a worried look, "Chairman Li, how are we going to arrange the seating for so many people watching the movie? We can't just have everyone scrambling for seats in a chaotic frenzy."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "That's easy. Just communicate with the cinema in advance and ask them to divide us into areas by department and book tickets together."

Sister Chen added, "Yes, we'll send a seating chart to each department later so everyone knows their seat number in advance."

At this point, Lao Zhang from the R&D department raised another question: "Chairman Li, our colleagues in the subsidiary live far away. How do we notify them? Also, how do we solve their transportation problems?"

Li Yuan slapped her forehead: "Oh dear, I almost forgot about that. Xiao Zhao, you're in charge of notifying the colleagues at the subsidiary company to make their work arrangements in advance and arrive on time. As for transportation, see if we can rent a few buses for unified pick-up and drop-off."

Xiao Zhao nodded quickly: "Okay, Chairman Li, I'll arrange it right away."

Next, everyone discussed some details such as discipline during the movie and the meeting point after the movie, and finally everything was arranged.

After the meeting, Li Yuan said to Sister Chen, "Sister Chen, could you have someone write a notice to tell everyone in detail about the movie screening?"

Sister Chen smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Li, I'll take care of it right away. I guarantee everyone will have a happy time watching the movie."

So, a cheerful notification was quickly sent to the email addresses of every employee in both the head office and subsidiaries. The notification read as follows:
