As the head of the Human Resources Departnt, Zhuang Li played these subtle tricks with ease, clearly discussing a six-month term with Song Xuejiao, yet she told Chen Yan it was a year.
Therefore, the six months she had cut beca her favor to Chen Yan.
Unaware of the underlying reason, Chen Yan naturally thanked her profusely.
Back in the Artists Departnt office.
Luo ngyun, who had been waiting for a long while, quickly ca up and asked, "Chen, how did it go?"
"Training for half a year!"
Chen Yan shook his head gently.
"What?"
Luo ngyun had anticipated possible retaliation but hadn't expected it to co so swiftly and to be a "ban for half a year" right out of the gate.
This ant she could no longer participate in the variety show produced by Cao Zhiyang's company.
"Chen, can't you plead on my behalf again?"
"All my work for the following period was already arranged!"
Luo ngyun's face fell, and she adopted a pitiful look.
"This is already the result after I begged President Zhuang for leniency."
"It was originally going to be a year of training."
Chen Yan shook his head, then sat down at his desk and started to go through docunts.
To him, Luo ngyun, who had offended the Executive Director of the Chairman's office, was already a "discardable piece," especially since he had many artists like Luo ngyun under him.
His initiative to intercede on her behalf was not only due to old tis' sake but also to gauge Director Song's stance and see if this matter would affect him.
It seed like Director Song had no intentions of aiming at him, so, for Chen Yan, the best course of action was naturally to turn the page on this matter straight away!
Hence, he had no interest in further entangling with Luo ngyun over this issue.
"Chen, help out once more."
"You're the only person I can rely on in the company!"
Luo ngyun put on a vulnerable and helpless act, her voice weak as one of her hands landed on Chen Yan's thigh, gently exploring toward the off-limits zone.
"Stop fucking teasing!!"
Chen Yan pushed Luo ngyun's hand away with a "smack," and, unable to contain his annoyance, he scolded her, "If you hadn't been so damn eager to cling onto Cao Zhiyang, would this have even happened?"
"I can't help you, if you want to smooth this over, you need Director Song to speak for you!"
"I'm busy with work, you'd better leave now!"
With a stern face, Chen Yan delivered a clear command for her to leave.
"Chen..."
Staring at the unfeeling man before her, Luo ngyun's mouth twitched. She truly had no solid backing at Maetian Entertainnt except for Chen Yan, and not even a robust pillar at that.
Clearly, he was no longer able to assist. Sighing in frustration, Luo ngyun left the office dejectedly.
She truly regretted it now, if she had known just how formidable Cao Zhiyang's ex-wife was, she wouldn't have waded into these troubled waters for all the world.
Now look, just for the sake of a so-called "big leg," she had gotten herself directly banned.
"ngyun, what's on your mind!"
"Feeling down?"
As Luo ngyun was pondering her next steps, suddenly soone patted her on the shoulder.
She looked up to see Cao Zhiyang, the man who had surrendered in less than three minutes at the hotel last night. He was looking vibrant, with two assistants following behind him.
He was at Maetian Entertainnt to sign a collaboration contract. Last night at the hotel, Cao Zhiyang had talked to Luo ngyun about this.
His show "Chosen Musician" was to engage in an in-depth collaboration with Maetian Entertainnt. Without Maetian Entertainnt, the show would not be able to continue.
Seeing this "chief culprit," Luo ngyun's already unpleasant face soured further.
If not for this guy, would she have been banned?
Although it was only for half a year, she originally didn't have much popularity to begin with, and with her existing work gone, everything would have to start from scratch in six months.
If it were a normal fresh start, that would be one thing, but the problem was that she had offended the director of the chairman's office, and even President Zhuang from the human resources departnt was very polite to them, who would dare to help her in the company in the future?
Luo ngyun had wanted to vent her anger on Cao Zhiyang, but considering he was, after all, the owner of an entertainnt company, she might need him in the future, so it was not a good idea to offend him.
So, she squeezed out a smile and said with a sowhat grievous tone, "I got banned just to save face for CEO Cao."
"Shouldn't CEO Cao compensate sohow?"
Luo ngyun quickly adjusted her attitude, thinking she had been banned because of Cao Zhiyang, and wondered if she could get so benefits from him.
"Banned?"
Cao Zhiyang looked at Luo ngyun with a skeptical face, "Where is this coming from?"
"It's all because of your ex-wife!"
Luo ngyun took Cao Zhiyang's arm and whispered, "CEO Cao, you didn't even ntion that she was working at Maetian Entertainnt, let alone as the director of the chairman's office. It would be so easy for her to deal with a small fry like !"
"Ah, I got revenge from CEO Cao's ex-wife while trying to help you maintain your dignity..." Read exclusive adventures at My Virtual Library Empire
Luo ngyun put on a look as if she'd endured all kinds of hardships for his sake.
And after hearing her words, Cao Zhiyang was utterly shocked, "Song Xuejiao is working at Maetian Entertainnt?"
"As the director of the chairman's office?"
"How can that be possible!!"
Although Cao Zhiyang acknowledged his ex-wife's work abilities, Maetian Entertainnt was a publicly-listed company and a top music company in the country; even if Song Xuejiao could get a job at Maetian Entertainnt, she couldn't be holding such a high position.
"CEO Cao, would I bother lying to you about sothing this significant?"
"Anyway, I got banned because of you."
Luo ngyun continued to speak pitifully.
"I'll go talk to Chen."
Cao Zhiyang shook off Luo ngyun's hand from his arm and then strode toward Chen Yan's office.
At this mont, Chen Yan was pondering how to quickly distance himself from Cao Zhiyang since the latter was the ex-husband of Director Song. Judging from last night, their relationship was very poor, not the kind that would suggest an amicable breakup.
In this situation, as soon as Director Song made a move, the company would no longer be able to cooperate with Cao Zhiyang's company. After all, there were many entertainnt companies of the scale of Jiaoyang Entertainnt in the industry, and they could be completely replaced.
Conversely, Jiaoyang Entertainnt was highly reliant on Maetian Entertainnt. If they lost such an important partner, the company would struggle, and if it couldn't find other major music companies to collaborate with, it might even risk going bankrupt.
"Chen, ngyun told she's been banned?"
"What's going on!"
Once he entered Chen Yan's office, Cao Zhiyang imdiately asked impatiently.
"CEO Cao, I was just about to talk to you about this."
"Our collaboration might have to be terminated."
Chen Yan said solemnly, "Didn't the company just get acquired? There has been a significant change in the upper managent, and our project has gone into a re-evaluation process. Given the current situation, getting it approved will be extrely difficult!"
"Chen, we aren't strangers here; just speak frankly."
"Is it because of Song Xuejiao?"
"Is it true she's working at Maetian Entertainnt??" Cao Zhiyang asked, frowning.
"Yes!"
Chen Yan nodded, then said with a tone of complaint, "CEO Cao, you never ntioned before that your ex-wife was a senior executive at our Maetian Entertainnt!"
"Had I known, I wouldn't have dared to collaborate with your company, even if you gave a few guts!"
As he spoke, Chen Yan shook his head, "CEO Cao, about the collaboration, you'd better go talk to Director Song first. If there's no problem on her end, then we can proceed with the next steps!"
"This..."
Cao Zhiyang's mouth twitched, and he was at a loss for words; he never imagined that one day his lifeline would be in the hands of his ex-wife, Song Xuejiao.
