~5 min read 903 words

At dawn, before the building of Wing Shing Film Company.

Xiang Sheng patted Xiang Fei's shoulder and smiled, "Ah Fei, from today on, run this place with complete confidence and boldness."

Xiang Fei looked up at the brand-new company signboard, his heart filled with myriad emotions. Yesterday he was still a "rebel general" of Shaw Brothers; today he already stood on a battlefield belonging to himself.

"Uncle Sheng, thank you and Uncle Qiang."

"Family doesn't speak like strangers," Xiang Sheng laughed heartily. "Come, let me introduce you to the company staff."

The employees of Wing Shing Film Company had already lined up and were waiting.

"Everyone, this is Xiang Shifei, our company's project manager," Xiang Sheng introduced to the crowd. "From today on, Wing Shing will enter the film market with a completely new posture."

The employees applauded one after another, their eyes carrying curiosity and anticipation. After all, the young man before them was not only the new boss but also a prominent figure who had just stirred up a huge storm in the entertainment circle.

Xiang Fei bowed slightly. "Thank you for everyone's trust. Xiang Fei will not let you down."

Just as Xiang Fei was conversing with department heads, a commotion suddenly erupted at the company reception desk.

"Ah Fei!"

The familiar voice made Xiang Fei whip his head around. There stood Zhou Zhou Huimin in the center of the lobby, wearing a light blue dress, her eyes slightly red.

"Ah Min!"

Before Xiang Fei could react, Zhou Zhou Huimin flew into his arms, hugging him tightly. "You scared me to death... When the news broke yesterday, I almost thought you..."

Xiang Fei gently patted her back and said softly, "It's alright; everything is resolved."

Only then did Zhou Zhou Huimin notice Xiang Sheng and Xiang Qiang standing nearby, and she let go somewhat embarrassedly.

Xiang Fei smiled and introduced, "This is my Uncle Qiang, and this is my Uncle Sheng."

"Hello Uncle Qiang, hello Uncle Sheng," Zhou Zhou Huimin greeted obediently.

Xiang Qiang laughed loudly, "Good! Good! Ah Fei has excellent taste!" Saying this, he pulled a bank card from his pocket. "Here, this is a gift for our first meeting."

Xiang Sheng also smiled and handed over a card. "A small token of our regards."

Zhou Zhou Huimin hurriedly waved her hands. "I can't accept this..."

"Oh, take it!" Xiang Qiang put on a stern face. "If you don't accept it, you're looking down on our Xiang family!"

Xiang Sheng chimed in, "Exactly. We're all family from now on; don't be so polite."

Left with no choice by their words, Zhou Zhou Huimin accepted it with a flushed face. "Thank you, Uncle Qiang; thank you, Uncle Sheng."

The two elders then burst into satisfied laughter.

Just as the few of them were chatting and laughing, the company's main door was pushed open again.

"Ah Fei! Rongzai and I are here!"

Wang Jing's characteristically loud voice echoed through the entire lobby. Following behind him was Liu Liu Furong; both were dressed casually and looked to be in high spirits.

"Fatty! Rongzai!" Xiang Fei went to meet them, forcefully patting both their shoulders. "You really came!"

Liu Liu Furong smiled. "Of course; we promised to follow you."

Xiang Qiang and Xiang Sheng also stepped forward. "Director Wang, Mr. Liu, we have long admired your great names."

Seeing the two Xiang family big shots, Wang Jing immediately dropped his playful grin. "Hello Mr. Xiang! This must be Second Master Xiang!"

Xiang Sheng smiled and shook his hand. "We're all insiders from now on; no need for politeness."

Not long after, Zhou Xingxing also arrived in a hurry.

"Fei... Brother Fei..." He was still somewhat introverted, but his gaze was firm. "I... I have come..."

Xiang Fei, moved, grasped his hand. "Xingzai, thank you for trusting me."

Xiang Sheng patted Zhou Xingxing's shoulder. "Mr. Zhou, we have long admired you. Come, let's go to the office to discuss in detail."

Just as everyone was preparing to go upstairs, Sun Li's phone call came through.

"Ah Fei, I'll be at the company immediately."

Hearing this, Xiang Qiang volunteered, "I'll go pick her up."

Five minutes later, Sun Li marched briskly into the lobby, followed by the entire production team.

Xiang Qiang warmly went to meet her. "Miss Sun, thank you for taking care of Ah Fei during this period."

Sun Li laughed heartily. "Mr. Xiang is too polite; it was Ah Fei who led us to break through."

In the spacious conference room, the core team of Wing Shing gathered together.

Cai Wen pressed the remote control, and the screen displayed the first project—"Infernal Affairs."

"This is the script Young Master Fei wrote for Shaw Brothers; now, it will become Wing Shing's opening masterpiece."

Wang Jing whistled. "Awesome!"

Xiang Sheng added, "Funding, venues, equipment—Wing Shing will provide full support."

Xiang Qiang made the final decision. "If you need people, we give people; if you need money, we give money!"

Laughter filled the conference room continuously; everyone was infected by this passion.

After the meeting ended, Xiang Fei stood alone before the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the bustling night scene of Xiangjiang.

Zhou Zhou Huimin quietly walked to his side. "What are you thinking about?"

Xiang Fei held her hand. "I'm thinking... all of this feels like a dream."

"It's not a dream," Zhou Zhou Huimin said, leaning against his shoulder. "It's what you deserve."
