As soone sought to et outside Liu Mingyu's office, Yang Chen felt quite refreshed. Although he didn't know what these two won would discuss together, at least they managed to defuse the awkward crisis this ti, preventing any deterioration in their relationship.
Despite appearing calm earlier, Yang Chen's mind was actually racing. Both being astute individuals, he knew bluffing wouldn't work. He decided to speak honestly, managing to avoid any major missteps.
Walking towards the elevator lobby of the building, Yang Chen pressed the down button and soon the elevator arrived.
Opening its doors, Yang Chen saw two won already inside: Lin Ruoxi, dressed in slightly mature navy attire, and her assistant Wu Yue.
Whether Lin Ruoxi was going out for work or inspecting another floor, it happened to coincide in this elevator.
Seeing Yang Chen suddenly appear on the public relations floor, Lin Ruoxi furrowed her brows slightly, her deanor frosty. Despite promising Yang Chen a position in the public relations departnt, she had effectively shifted all her work to a new entertainnt company. Yang Chen appearing on this floor at this ti, besides doing sothing unrelated to work, had no other reason.
"If you're coming in, co in quickly," urged Wu Yue upon seeing Yang Chen hesitating at the elevator entrance.
Yang Chen didn't bother with her and silently entered the elevator, standing side by side with Lin Ruoxi.
The elevator was quiet. Feeling that standing silently might be construed as intentional provocation, Yang Chen casually asked, "Is President Lin going to inspect the work?"
Wu Yue frowned. "What business is it of yours what the president does?"
Yang Chen smirked coldly. "You're just an assistant. I'm a divisional director. Do you have the authority to question ?"
Even the mute would feel bitter after eating bitter lon. Wu Yue's face turned red, unable to reply.
"No, I'm going to et the new vice president," Lin Ruoxi replied calmly.
New vice president? Yang Chen was puzzled. Since Lin Kun's death, all shares had been transferred to Lin Ruoxi, making Yulei practically a multinational corporation under her sole control. Therefore, the positions set within the company were essentially dictated by Lin Ruoxi alone, with shareholder etings being rely formalities. Whether there was a vice president depended solely on Lin Ruoxi's preference.
Due to her persistent workaholic spirit and the exceptional performance of Yulei's public relations departnt, a vice president seed redundant.
It wasn't until Lin Ruoxi fell ill for half a month recently that Mo Qianni took on so responsibilities as her proxy, prompting Lin Ruoxi to officially designate Mo Qianni as vice president. However, this was mostly a titular role, with Lin Ruoxi herself handling most of the work on a daily basis.
This sudden ntion of a vice president naturally struck Yang Chen as odd. Could it be that Lin Ruoxi had changed her mind and was looking to free herself?
"It's for the operation of new materials, in cooperation with Muyun. We've each assigned soone to the other's company for direct communication and managent," Lin Ruoxi explained simply.
With the successful developnt of new materials, the market sales phase was imminent, promising a sharp increase in Yulei's market share and workload. In the spirit of mutual trust and cooperation, Yulei and Muyun exchanged a managerial talent to oversee the new material market in each other's company.
Yang Chen didn't ask any more questions upon hearing this. However, he suddenly thought, should he divorce from his current job in six months and resign? But by then, the collaborations he facilitated might be affected. That was a problem. Yang Chen felt he should find ti to talk to Lin Ruoxi privately about it.
Upon reaching the first floor and exiting the elevator, Lin Ruoxi left silently with Wu Yue towards the parking lot, while Yang Chen headed back alone to the entertainnt company across the street.
Back at Yulei Entertainnt's floor, Yang Chen went straight to Wang Jie's office. Wang Jie was busy tapping away at so docunts. Upon seeing Yang Chen enter, she imdiately stood up and smiled, "Director, how did the discussion go? Can we trust Director Huang?"
Yang Chen took out the SD card from his pocket and placed it in front of Wang Jie without expression. "Here are the negotiation results. You can take a look, especially at the video files."
Confused, Wang Jie inserted the SD card into her laptop and opened the video files. Within monts, she hastily closed the video, her face flushing red. She dared not look at Yang Chen and stamred, "Director, what is this about?"
"Oh, didn't you ask if that Huang director was trustworthy? In the video just now, the woman in front was Director Huang's wife, and the person behind her was the producer. They insisted on performing this scene for to see, wanting to be their action director and photographer. Luckily, they didn't ask to do the dubbing; I wouldn't know how to voice that woman," Yang Chen said, looking troubled.
Wang Jie was drenched in cold sweat, full of embarrassnt. "Director, next ti I'll definitely scrutinize everything before negotiations. I-I didn't expect Director Huang Hai to be like this."
Yang Chen chuckled lightly. "Wang Jie, before you ca here, you didn't have much contact with people in the entertainnt industry, right?"
"Yes, I mainly did so PR work, not much contact with the entertainnt circle," Wang Jie replied.
"That's why. From now on, be more careful. It's not just for my sake; as a man, I'll manage. But you need to pay attention to your safety. Rember to bring trusted people with you to avoid trouble," Yang Chen advised. Wang Jie had expected a scolding but instead felt grateful and agreed deeply.
"Director, thank you," she said sincerely.
Yang Chen smiled as he took out the SD card from Wang Jie's laptop. "You wouldn't want to keep this, would you?"
"Of course not!" Wang Jie waved her hands frantically. "The contents in there are just too ugly."
Yang Chen casually crushed the SD card in his hand and threw it into the trash bin. He then said to Wang Jie, "Don't feel burdened by what happened today, especially not in front of . I don't think you were negligent in any way. The most difficult thing to understand in this world is human nature. When it cos to work and such, just relax. Otherwise, it'll be more stressful than going to the grave."
Wang Jie chuckled. "Director, you're exaggerating."
Yang Chen knew his deputy was now fine and didn't tease her further. He let Wang Jie continue working and left her office, taking the stairs down to Yulei Entertainnt's music production studio on the next floor.
With substantial startup capital, Yulei Entertainnt boasted its own recording studio and various music production rooms, fully equipped for artists and musicians under contract to create and rehearse music.
Yang Chen was sowhat concerned about Huilin, who was experiencing her first day in the company. Having spent most of her life in the mountains without much exposure to the world, she might be nervous facing so many strangers all at once, especially with everyone focused on her.
Upon entering the recording studio, Yang Chen saw Zhao Teng standing with a group of staff and musicians, several audio engineers and musicians wearing headphones, intensely listening to sothing.
Inside the recording booth, Huilin, also wearing large headphones, had taken off her coat and was in a light pink thin sweater. Sweat beads glistened on her pure and lovely face as she closed her eyes, deeply imrsed in so emotion, singing sothing.
Seeing Yang Chen arrive at the recording studio, Zhao Teng tapped the shoulder of a colleague who was deeply engrossed in the music and introduced, "This is Director Yang, so of you might not be familiar with him. Get to know him quickly."
Yang Chen gave a faint smile and shook hands with the people present. Zhao Teng proceeded to introduce their backgrounds; most were producers and musicians hired under contract. Learning that the young man before them was the highest-ranking executive of the company, they were sowhat surprised but did not dare to underestimate him. Age didn't necessarily equate to background or capability, whether they relied on connections or rit.
"It seems like all of you are quite engrossed. Does my cousin sing well?" Yang Chen asked.
One of the musicians nodded eagerly. "Is she really your cousin, Director? Like brother, like sister indeed. Miss Huilin's vocal talent is among the top three I've ever encountered. What's more remarkable is the ethereal quality in her voice, which is rare among young girls these days and undoubtedly tied to her temperant."
"Indeed, her vocal abilities are excellent. With so refinent in falsettos and high notes, she could adapt to a variety of song styles," another musician chid in.
Yang Chen was mildly surprised. He looked towards Huilin, who was still earnestly singing inside the recording booth, and picked up a pair of headphones to listen for himself.
Through the headphones, a nostalgic ballad played. Yang Chen wasn't familiar with the music and entertainnt industry in Yanxia, so he couldn't recognize the singer. However, Huilin's refreshing and pleasant voice brought out the song's emotional depth, creating a soothing atmosphere.
Taking off the headphones, Yang Chen addressed the group, "She seems quite tired, sweating like that. Why don't you let her take a break? Singing continuously like this isn't good for her voice."
"Haha, Director, it's not that we don't want Huilin to stop. It's just that she's so engrossed in her singing that we hesitate to interrupt her," joked a few of the producers.
Just then, a young receptionist from the front desk entered and called out, "Director Yang, are you here?"
Yang Chen turned around. "What is it?"
The receptionist spoke respectfully, "Director, there's soone waiting for you in the company's reception area. They claim to know you and asked for both you and Miss Huilin to co et them."
Yang Chen's expression shifted slightly. He instructed the receptionist to return first and then walked into the recording studio towards Huilin.
Seeing Yang Chen suddenly enter, Huilin stopped singing, her cheeks flushed. Feeling embarrassed to have sung in front of Yang Chen, she asked, "Big brother Yang, how co you're here?"
"Soone wants to et , and they want to et you too," Yang Chen said with a smile.
Huilin blinked a few tis. She didn't know many people who would want to et her. "Who is it? Is it Sister?"
Yang Chen shrugged. "If I'm not mistaken, it's either your grandmother or your grandfather."
