Chapter 460: 408, new boss, unspoken rules? (asking for monthly votes)_2
But why was it him who was being so vigorously promoted?
The answer was that he had previously formed a very intimate relationship with a certain mogul, which led to a massive tilt of resources in his favor.
That's why Wu Dehai sought him out now.
On this matter, Lu Chuanyu was experienced and a currently popular top celebrity.
If the new boss had such tastes, he should be capable of handling Lu Chuanyu.
"I understand, Director Wu!"
"I'll be more proactive in the future!"
Lu Chuanyu immediately made his stance clear. Although he wasn't truly gay, he had plenty of experience and felt he could deal with it if the new boss really had such inclinations!
Moreover, Lu Chuanyu also saw this as a good opportunity. If he could really get the new boss on his side, wouldn't his days ahead be much easier!
"Good, listen to my arrangements when the time comes!"
Seeing Lu Chuanyu agree so readily, Wu Dehai nodded in satisfaction.
Actually, work on the female artists' side was easy to handle, and he didn't even need to do it personally.
All he did was casually mention who could please the new boss well, and more than twenty people took the initiative to come to him.
For these female artists, it could be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
The boss of Maetian Entertainment!
A proper tycoon of the entertainment industry, who they usually couldn't even find the entryway to please!
"You may go out now."
"Then have Zhou Ziqing come in!"
After discussing the business, Wu Dehai gestured for Lu Chuanyu to leave.
Although there were many female artists who had come to him to apply, none of them matched the quality of Zhou Ziqing. Hence, Wu Dehai believed that if he could get through to Zhou Ziqing, then the task at hand would be more than half accomplished.
After waiting for a moment.
Zhou Ziqing arrived in the meeting room.
"Have a seat!"
Wu Dehai casually pointed to the chair in front of him.
"If Director Wu has any instructions, please just say so!"
Zhou Ziqing naturally didn't have a good impression of Director Wu who had ordered her to be shelved.
Now that he had sought her out again, Zhou Ziqing felt it definitely wasn't for anything good. Thus, she was just going through the motions, with no intention of agreeing.
Wu Dehai cleared his throat, then said very seriously, "Ziqing, I'm really considering your career here!"
"Look, you're not getting any younger. Even if you wait out your contract, you'll have aged, right?"
"There happens to be an opportunity to showcase yourself today, and you should have heard that the new boss will be coming later."
"I think with your qualities, the new boss will definitely like you a lot!"
"So, as long as you're willing to keep the new boss company, not to mention making a comeback, you'll also receive the company's strong support!"
"What do you think?"
"Give it some serious thought, okay?"
After Wu Dehai finished speaking, his fingers rhythmically tapped on the table in front of him as he watched Zhou Ziqing's reaction.
In truth, he was very fond of Zhou Ziqing and had made multiple overtures for a casting couch arrangement, but she had refused each time, which led him to shelve her.
Therefore, he wasn't holding out much hope in talking to Zhou Ziqing, knowing her to be a woman with a stubborn and unyielding character.
But an artist like Zhou Ziqing with her qualities was truly a unique presence at Maetian Entertainment, irreplaceable.
So, Wu Dehai could only talk to her, reluctantly knocking on her door!
However, the initial feedback caught him by surprise. Zhou Ziqing didn't reject him outright like she had before. Instead, she frowned, seemingly deep in thought about something.
Seeing her expression change, Wu Dehai became somewhat frustrated.
Dammit!
You'd go undercover for the new boss? Not give me my due, is that it?
Wu Dehai was actually a bit jealous, feeling indignant inside.
However, what he didn't know was that Zhou Ziqing wasn't pondering whether to accept the casting couch arrangement or not.
After Wu Dehai mentioned the matter, Yang Hao's image unconsciously came to Zhou Ziqing's mind. Enjoy new chapters from My Virtual Library Empire
Having learned from Xiao Yinqiu that the new boss was the head of Tianmei Media, she had gone online to look up information about this new boss.
Yang Hao's photos were already circulating online; these were taken at various events he had attended.
Even though they weren't pictures taken with great effort, Yang Hao's current image and demeanor were truly impressive, making him appear very young in the photos.
Zhou Ziqing's mind unconsciously conjured up Yang Hao's handsome visage.
Thus, she suddenly felt that being involved in an unspoken rule with such a boss didn't seem altogether unacceptable!
"Ziqing, you've finally come to your senses, haven't you?"
Seeing Zhou Ziqing silent for a long time, Wu Dehai couldn't help but speak up and ask.
"Uh, no!"
Snapping back to reality, Zhou Ziqing decisively shook her head, then said sternly, "My stance remains the same as before, and Director Wu should be clear about that!"
"If the new boss really is that kind of person, then I'd rather be shelved until the end of my contract!"
"Alright then!"
"The opportunity was offered to you, whether you cherish it is your own business!"
Seeing Zhou Ziqing still held this attitude, Wu Dehai actually felt somewhat better.
Well, she treated everyone equally!
Thinking this to himself, Wu Dehai then waved Zhou Ziqing away: "Send Liu Yue over!"
"You'd better call her yourself, Director Wu!"
Zhou Ziqing shook her head; she didn't want to be an "accomplice" and therefore had no intention of getting involved!
After she'd spoken, she strode confidently out of the small meeting room.
"Ziqing, what did Director Wu want with you?"
When Zhou Ziqing returned to the rest area where the artists were, Ye Tingting immediately approached her and asked in a low voice.
"What else could it be!"
"The same old thing, he wanted me to accompany the new boss!"
Zhou Ziqing scornfully said, "This Wu Dehai has no other skill, just knows how to play this game of unspoken rules!"
"I even feel like cursing him to his face!"
"He wanted you to accompany the new boss?"
"Isn't that like asking you to accompany Mr. Yang??"
Ye Tingting looked at her friend in surprise, her eyes wide.
"Exactly that!"
Zhou Ziqing nodded, affirming the statement.
"Mr. Yang is actually okay, not the greasy middle-aged uncle you imagine!"
Ye Tingting spoke fairly, then giggled and teased, "Actually, I think it would be quite alright; Mr. Yang is the boss of both Tianmei Media and Maetian Entertainment."
"Once this news goes public, it'll definitely cause an earthquake in the entertainment industry!"
"So, if you manage to snag Mr. Yang, you'd be the lady boss of Tianmei Media plus Maetian Entertainment!"
"Who would dare to provoke you then!"
"You'd be able to sing whenever you want, release a new album whenever you feel like it—just thinking about that life sounds incredibly awesome!"
Ye Tingting yammered on, laughing cheerfully.
"Shut up!"
"It's not as easy as you make it sound!"
Zhou Ziqing retorted, continuing, "Besides, our new boss has quite a number of women around him, even if I were willing, it's not certain I'd get a turn!"
"Ziqing, you should have some confidence in yourself!"
"Though he has many women, there are very few who look like you. I've said before to wisely use the advantages of your appearance and figure."
"After all, you are an artist at heart!!"
Ye Tingting continued to encourage her friend, because, for both personal and professional reasons, she hoped Zhou Ziqing could really get involved with the new boss.
If the two of them ended up together, her job would be much easier in the future.
The girlfriend of the boss would get whatever resources she wanted with ease, wouldn't she?
She could be an agent with no need for a brain!
While the two whispered, Wu Dehai's assistant hurried out of the elevator then quickly headed towards the small meeting room where Wu Dehai was: "Director Wu, the new boss has arrived at the parking lot!"
"So soon!"
Wu Dehai couldn't help but exclaim, though he quickly stood up from his seat.
"Everyone must have heard!"
"The new boss has arrived at the parking lot; senior management will come with me to the first-floor lobby to greet him!"
