After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

Chapter 459: 408, New Boss, Unspoken Rules? (Request for Monthly Pass)



Both people mentioned Director Wu, full name Wu Dehai, who is the General Manager of Maetian Entertainment, occupying a position just below the Chairman and several board members who own shares.

However, in terms of actual power at hand, he even surpasses the other board members.

That's why Wu Dehai could easily put Zhou Ziqing on ice; he has that level of influence.

But things are different now; the company has changed hands.

As a general manager without any shares, to put it plainly, Wu Dehai is essentially a high-level wage worker.

In fact, his contract with Maetian Entertainment is that of a professional manager, with an annual salary and performance bonuses!

Therefore, after Yang Hao, the new owner, took over Maetian Entertainment, he could choose whether or not to renew Wu Dehai's contract!

Whether to use this professional manager or not is up to Yang Hao, which is full of uncertainty.

That's why Lu Chuanyu dared to compare himself with Wu Dehai!

He is a popular influencer who can truly earn money for the company, while it's not so certain for a professional manager like Wu Dehai.

Moreover, his performance over the past three years hasn't been very impressive either.

Zhou Ziqing actually just used it as an excuse; she had no interest in Lu Chuanyu at all, as he had a bad reputation in the industry, with unclear relationships with several female artists from the same company.

And Lu Chuanyu is too ostentatious, particularly good at showing off and acting like a big shot. If it weren't for the fact that he was an artist from the same company, and somewhat a senior, Zhou Ziqing wouldn't bother with him.

"Yu, are you not afraid Director Wu will hear you?"

At this moment, Zhou Ziqing's agent and good friend Ye Tingting took over the conversation.

Everyone had been called in for a meeting today, but no one had been informed of the specific content. However, anyone with a bit of inside knowledge knew that the new owner was coming!

Maetian Entertainment was about to undergo a major change!

"Doesn't matter, so what if he hears!"

Lu Chuanyu shrugged nonchalantly, as of course he couldn't show weakness in front of a beautiful woman.

However, just at this moment.

Behind Lu Chuanyu, there came the greeting voices of others.

"Director Wu!"

"Good day, Director Wu!"

Uh...

Lu Chuanyu's mouth twitched violently a couple of times as he looked up at Ye Tingting standing opposite him.

She was smiling at him, a look of amusement in her eyes; clearly, he had been set up!

But Lu Chuanyu's skin was thick, and he turned around, pretending as if nothing had happened, and greeted Wu Dehai with great enthusiasm.

Wu Dehai had indeed heard Lu Chuanyu's earlier words, but right now, he had no mood to quarrel over these things; he was here at the Artists Department to arrange for the reception of the new owner.

Since he didn't know the new owner's preferences, he planned to have both male and female artists on standby.

"Chuanyu, come here a moment!"

Wu Dehai waved Lu Chuanyu over.

"Right away, Director Wu!"

Lu Chuanyu agreed promptly, scurrying over energetically. He had just pronounced his indifference to Director Wu, and now he was acting like a sycophant!

Watching this, Ye Tingting scornfully curled her lip and said to Zhou Ziqing, "This one? He's even trying to hit on you."

"No hope for him!" Zhou Ziqing shook her head slightly, "Someone like him, you don't need to mess with him!"

"Didn't you say he offended our new boss?"

"That definitely won't end well for him!"

"So, who cares! I'll just vent my frustrations first!"

It was Xiao Yinqiu and Zhou Ziqing who had casually mentioned the matter between Yang Hao and Lu Chuanyu during a chat, and since Ye Tingting was also present then, she was aware that Lu Chuanyu had offended Yang Hao during the recording of "My Idol".

"Who knows what the new owner is thinking!"

"It's always better to be careful!"

Zhou Ziqing had been frightened by the unwritten rules and murmured softly.

Ye Tingting nodded, "Uh-huh, got it."

On the other hand.

Lu Chuanyu followed Wu Dehai to the small conference room.

"You know the new owner is coming later, right?" Wu Dehai didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.

"Yeah, I've heard!"

Lu Chuanyu nodded. Of course he knew the new owner was coming, but this new owner was quite mysterious, unknown in terms of background.

"Good that you know."

Wu Dehai crossed his arms, his thumbs rhythmically rotating as he continued, "Right now, I'm not sure what our new owner's preferences are."

"But I need to give you a heads up, if the new owner takes a liking to your style, you'll need to step up to the plate! This opportunity to please the new owner, you should understand better than I do how precious it is!"

"Uh? This matter..."

Lu Chuanyu's brows subconsciously furrowed, clearly understanding the implication behind Wu Dehai's words.

If you thought that only female artists in the entertainment circle were subjected to hidden rules, you'd be grossly mistaken; many male artists can't avoid these so-called hidden rules either.

After all, many moguls in the circle have special tastes, some with inherent orientations and others who have changed over time.

Fed up with using female artists, they switch for a change; hence, many big shots in the entertainment circle don't discriminate between sexes!

And currently, many well-known male stars active on TV and other media actually rose to fame by selling their bodies and currying favor with entertainment moguls.

Like the "double dragon incident" associated with a certain individual!

These things are certainly not unfounded rumors!

In reality, it is just that dark.

Of course, to describe it as "dark" might be a bit harsh; it's more a matter of mutual willingness, a you-scratch-my-back-I-scratch-yours situation, serving mutual needs!

The reason why Lu Chuanyu was promoted by Maetian Entertainment was certainly not because of extraordinary talent; in China, there are numerous trainees with similar or even better looks and abilities than him.
