Chapter 509 Wanted to Work Alone
Fang Mo’er had always been a person of action. Since she had gotten the idea of starting a company and gotten Shi Mo’s approval, she had immediately taken action.
The contract she had signed with Shi Mo did not have any restrictions. Even if she withdrew from it midway, she would not be forced to pay any penalty and there was no restriction on whatever side business she did.
Knowing that it was not exactly the right time to terminate the contract now, Fang Mo’er decided to take the time to understand the things that needed to be taken note of in the company now and leave only after everything was ready.
Shi Mo was an expert in this area.
When the two of them returned to Xiangyuan residence, and Shi Mo went to work in his study, Fang Mo’er also followed him in.
Fang Mo’er ingratiatingly massaged Shi Mo’s shoulders and asked, “Hubby, can you teach me what needs to be taken care of when starting a company?”.
Fang Mo’er was not very strong, but the touch of her soft hands felt very good. Shi Mo was in a good mood after being massaged by her.

He was actually capable of doing whatever Fang Mo’er wanted with his assets. However, seeing that she was so serious about it, Shi Mo decided to teach her seriously as well.
“If you want to run a company well, let’s not talk about the follow-up first. Right now, the most important thing for you is to get everything ready for the initial stage. First, you need to choose the location of the company, then purchase the office supplies. After you have prepared all these, you can start registering, recruiting employees, and discussing any collaborations.
“However, these things are easy to talk about but very troublesome to handle it yourself. If you need it, I can get Assistant Yu to help you with it.”
Starting a company was not child’s play. Even if you had sufficient funds, the follow-up work would still be very tiring. Furthermore, Fang Mo’er still had to go for her film shoots and there were many jobs still waiting for her.
Shi Mo could not bear to let Fang Mo’er be too tired. If she needed it, he would definitely do her best to help her.
However, Fang Mo’er did not want to sit back and just rest on his laurels. She said, “No, no, you can just be my advisor. Occasionally, you can guide me on what to do. Leave the rest to
me.”
Thinking of her current assets consisting of over a hundred million, she instantly felt emboldened and toughened her backbone.
With over a hundred million in assets, she could start a company. In the future, when she started making money, she would soon become a rich woman.
According to Shi Mo’s instructions, she needed to choose the company’s address first.
She decided that she would start an entertainment company. She would first develop actors and singers, and save some money before entering the film industry.
Opening the rental app, she started to look at office rentals.
After scrolling for a while, she noticed that the rental fees were getting more and more ridiculous. The location she had chosen belonged to the business circle. Every inch of land was expensive. Even renting a property would cost a lot of money, much less buying
one.
Furthermore, there were still a lot of things that required money to be spent. When Fang Mo’er thought about the money that would flow out like water, her heart instantly ached.
However, there was no reward for her efforts. Fang Mo’er searched for a long time before finally finding a place near the business circle that was surrounded by the more prosperous Chenguang building.
There was access to the subway and bus systems around the building, so it would be very convenient for the employees to commute to work. Most importantly, the office that she had chosen was very cheap.
She figured that it might be because the office was located on the 18th floor. People in business considered the unlucky homonyms of the 18th and 4th floors to be somewhat taboo, so compared to other floors, this one was especially cheap.
But Fang Mo’er was not bothered about things like that.
“Hubby, what do you think of this place? I plan to rent an office first, and buy it once the company is much bigger in the future. In this way, even if it fails, I won’t lose too much.”
Although Fang Mo’er was very satisfied with herself, she still sought Shi Mo’s opinion. After all, it would be a pity if she did not make use of the fact that she had a business tycoon by her side.
At the moment, Fang Mo’er was sitting beside Shi Mo with her phone in her hand. He turned her head slightly and saw the headline of the office on the floor that Fang Mo’er had asked him about.
“Chenguang Building is also considered to be in the business circle. The most important thing is that it’s convenient for transportation and the location is not bad.”
Shi Mo was indeed a successful businessman. He knew the prosperity of various places like the back of his hand.
All he needed to do was take a look at the name of the building and he would know whether it was good or not.
Just as Fang Mo’er was about to speak, she noticed that the tone of his voice had changed, “However, the reason why the rent on the 18th floor is so cheap is because something happened there before.”
“Something happened? What happened?” Fang Mo’er’s heart trembled. She had finally found a cheap one. Surely, this opportunity was not going to go down the drain, right?
Shi Mo gently caressed her head and said, “A few years ago, an employee on the 18th floor committed suicide. At that time, the company that had rented the property was a multi-level marketing company. They cheated a lot of people out of a lot of money. After collecting all the employee’s money, they ran away within a few days. The employee that was cheated had become penniless and couldn’t find a solution to his situation. He couldn’t think things through.”
“How pitiful,” Fang Mo’er sighed.
In the original world, multi-level marketing was popular. She had not expected such organizations to be so prevalent in the book world as well.
