Yang Meng was annoyed by those middle-aged men with blind confidence. She currently had many suitors, all of whom were handsome and wealthy.
She understood that she was in a circle of fame and fortune, and her reputation was very important now. So, while she kept these men dangling, she did it subtly. After all, Yang Meng couldn't let her fans know her true self.
It was precisely because she hadn't openly accepted their good intentions that some people thought she was just an ordinary celebrity.
This also led many overly confident individuals to try various methods to win her over. However, after seeing so many outstanding men, how could she possibly be interested in these people?
It seemed she needed to find a suitable partner, someone excellent enough to make her willingly walk down the aisle.
It was Lin Yan's first time entering the building purchased by Xin Chuang. It was a very tall office building.
As Xin Chuang's departments grew and its development had been particularly good over the past two years, Lin Yan had generously bought an entire office building.
A nearly 30-story office building that housed all of Xin Chuang's departments.
Lin Yan's main purpose for this visit was to meet people. After all, Xin Chuang, with its substantial capital, had already secured a significant position in the industry.
Lin Yan was now in a position to step from behind the scenes to the forefront. If she were to confront someone, wouldn't they need to know who their opponent was?
Fang Zhou's secretary came down to pick up Lin Yan. Although she had always known there was a more powerful chairman behind her boss, she had never met her.
The chairman was very mysterious. The only information known was that she was a young woman and exceptionally wealthy.
After all, every investment made by Xin Chuang was a grand production, and they were never short of money.
The most frequent comment on Xin Chuang Entertainment's video streaming platform was "the budget is burning."
Lin Yan entered the company with a gentle smile and went to the top floor with Secretary Han.
"Who was that who went up with Secretary Han just now?" a gossipy front desk girl asked the person next to her.
"Haven't seen her before, but she's probably not a celebrity. If she were an artist, no one could get Secretary Han to personally pick them up."
"Probably some rich heiress, but she's really beautiful, the natural kind of beauty."
"Does she look like anyone? She seems somewhat familiar?"
"Huh, you think so too? Does she look like some celebrity?"
Suddenly, they all fell silent, exchanged glances, and stopped discussing.
Everything about Xin Chuang was great, and they treated all artists equally, whether they were online streamers, actors, or singers, with one exception.
That exception was Yang Meng. Yang Meng could be considered a top-tier actress in the country, but for some reason, Xin Chuang never used her in any of their films, variety shows, or other productions.
They even refused her主动 requests for collaboration.
The employees privately speculated that the top management of Xin Chuang must strongly dislike this celebrity.
However, the highest-ranking leader they could contact, General Manager Fang, had never shown such a tendency. This left only their legendary chairman.
After Lin Yan entered the 28th floor, she saw Fang Zhou waiting by the elevator.
"Chairman Lin, you're finally here." Fang Zhou's expression was exaggerated.
Her boss trusted her so much, and this was Lin Yan's first time visiting the company.
"What? Such enthusiasm can't hide your previous investment failure!" Lin Yan said sternly.
"Uh!" Fang Zhou's smile froze on her face, filled with extreme awkwardness.
"Just kidding! Let's go, to your office first." Lin Yan suddenly smiled and walked forward.
"Boss, you really scared me. Secretary Han, please get a cup of tea." Fang Zhou sighed in relief and then instructed Secretary Han.
As Lin Yan sat down on the sofa in Fang Zhou's office, Han Lin brought over a cup of green tea.
"Chairman Lin, please enjoy!" Secretary Han placed the tea on the coffee table in front of the sofa and then left the office.
"You really scared me just now!" Fang Zhou shook her head and chuckled.
"Although I was joking just now, your investment failure is a fact," Lin Yan said seriously. "What happened? This doesn't seem like a mistake you would make."
"It wasn't my problem," Fang Zhou's expression darkened. "Someone gave me false information, which is why I invested in this project."
"Was the source of the information confirmed?" Lin Yan inquired. Although she didn't care much about the money, she didn't want to let this loss go unaddressed.
"It has been confirmed, it came from Ming Cheng," Fang Zhou's voice carried a hint of anger.
The boss of Ming Cheng was one of Yang Meng's suitors and the one who had provided her with the most significant assistance.
In the new storyline, this Ming Cheng boss, Qin An, was also the first male supporting character, with more screen time than the male lead.
"So, it's because we rejected Yang Meng's cooperation request, and Qin An is coming to her defense?" Lin Yan raised an eyebrow and scoffed.
"That's all she's capable of," Fang Zhou sneered.
"Yes, but even limited capabilities are useful, aren't they?"
"I recall she has a movie coming out soon?"
"Yes, it's said to be a major production by a renowned director, aiming for awards," Fang Zhou answered instinctively. "Boss, what do you mean?"
"Don't we also have a movie nearing completion?"
"Yes, then I'll have them submit it for review as soon as possible and start the promotion!"
"Double the promotional budget, arrange for splash screen ads, and see which awards she's entered for."
"I will. Since she's made the first move, she shouldn't resent us for making the second."
Fang Zhou was also furious, as the previous investment had cost her nearly a hundred million. And this was after she had cut her losses in time.
After discussing company matters, Fang Zhou took Lin Yan to see her office.
The office was fully renovated, everything done according to Lin Yan's preferences.
"How is it, are you satisfied?"
"It's not bad, but I won't be spending much time here. After all, I have other businesses to attend to."
"I know you're a busy person. But you have to come here a few more times, at least so the company staff can recognize their chairman!"
"I'll try to come, after all, there are so many handsome men and beautiful women here, it's a good place to relax my eyes!"
Lin Yan said playfully. But she wasn't wrong; the employees here were all quite good-looking. Online, there were even complaints that Xin Chuang hired based on looks.
"If those handsome men and beautiful women could keep you here, I'd guarantee to find a bunch of beauties to parade in front of you every day."
Fang Zhou also joked. She wished Lin Yan would spend more time here, as her investment judgment was excellent. While she was earning a lot now, who would complain about having more money?
If Lin Yan were here more often, she would have a lot less to worry about!
