Chapter 309: He's our senior after all
At Dazzling Media:
The news about an externally-hired manager spread throughout the entire company.
As expected, the senior managers were obviously unhappy; nevermind that he didn't climb his wayup, but he was so young to boot.
Why doesn't he choose to be a celebrity instead since he's so young and good-looking? Why musthe be a manager?
After all, being a manager and an artiste wasn't the same—the earlier one debuted as an artiste thebetter, but a manager required lots of experience and extensive networks. Most of the managersstarted out as assistants or were in charge of marketing; they normally didn't have an artiste underthem without working at least three to five years, so there were only a few managers in the industrywho were under 30 years old.
But the older employees knew in their hearts that chairman Chu was already wary of this dictator,Zhou Wen Bin, who held power over all the artistes. Thus, chairman Chu gave Ye Bai extensivepowers and made sure everyone agreed to cooperate with him.
At the moment, everybody was just waiting to see what would happen. Nobody dared to choose ateam, but it was obvious that not many people had a good feeling about Ye Bai.
Zhou Wen Bin had been rebuked by Ye Bai in front of chairman Chu, and Ye Bai seemed capableon the surface, but chairman Chu couldn't control what happened in private. This young guy didn'thave any background, no backers, no experience, and the artiste he chose was way past his prime.How could he fight against Zhou Wen Bin?novelbin
There was chaos in the film studio.
A group of newcomers were having their photos taken for publicity purposes.
Many of them weren't even in their 20s yet—the youngest was only 16. All of them were at the agewhen they were freshest.
Luo Chen arrived very early that morning. He still wore a plain t-shirt and jeans with a pair of oldand washed out sneakers as he waited silently in a corner.
It was currently 9:10 a.m., 10 minutes past the time his manager told him yesterday.
At that moment, an attractive-looking artiste was joking with some people and wasn't lookingstraight as he accidentally bumped into Luo Chen
Seeing that the person in his way was Luo Chen, the artiste's face suddenly turned ugly. "LuoChen…"
This artiste, Lin Hao, was under Zhou Wen Bin as well. As his manager was the strongest in thecompany and the film he recently acted in was very popular, Lin Hao was in the limelight and a fewnewcomers crowded around him, trying to curry favor with him.
News of the incident in Zhou Wen Bin's office yesterday already spread; everyone knew the newmanager chose an unpopular artiste under Zhou Wen Bin, and rumor had it that Zhou Wen Binrefused to let him go and used Lin Hao to switch with Luo Chen. What's worse was that the newmanager refused to budge as he thought Lin Hao wasn't good enough, making Lin Hao the butt ofthe joke in the entire office.
When he saw Luo Chen, Lin Hao naturally had a rage boiling inside him. He rubbed his chin andsized him up with a threatening gaze. "What are you doing here!"
"My manager asked me to wait here." Luo Chen seemed to be accustomed to receiving this kind oftreatment as he didn't move and stayed put as he replied expressionlessly.
Lin Hao laughed out loud. "Eh, manager? That little Adonis who just entered the company?"
The newcomers next to Lin Hao also chimed in and sneered to please Lin Hao. "Ai yo, I wonderedwho that was. Is he the future star the new manager handpicked? He has backing, so no wonderhe's so arrogant now!"
"He can't make a comeback just by changing his manager, can he?"
"Even Chu-ge couldn't groom this garbage, yet he's still thinking of making a comeback!"
Lin Hao crossed his arms and laughed. "Don't say that, guys. He's our senior after all since hedebuted three years ago!"
