Chapter 306: Only knowing about announcements all day long

~7 min read 1,346 words

"What is it?" Guo Qishan raised an eyebrow slightly.

"I heard that the headquarters is planning to do a travel-type variety show recently. I have a suitable plan here. If Guo Zong trusts me, you can let her go and try it out. If you feel it's not good, you can also replace her."

"Sure, then you can let her directly coordinate with the planning manager at the headquarters," Guo Qishan agreed without hesitation. "The candidate you think is suitable shouldn't be wrong."

"Thank you, Guo Zong. I will notify her to go and report immediately," Xu Tian nodded.

Originally, he had an eighty percent certainty about this matter because he had brought considerable revenue to Qingguo Music; at such a time, Guo Qishan would certainly be happy to give him this face.

But he also knew clearly that Guo Qishan could not completely trust him. When necessary, he would send another person to parachute in and replace his position, just as he had replaced Du Xiaowei before.

Before Guo Qishan made a move, he had to leave himself a way out so that he wouldn't be so passive when the time came.

……

After the meeting, Guo Qishan returned to his office.

In the office, a young man with his legs crossed was puffing on a cigarette, flipping through a gossip magazine in his hand.

Seeing Guo Qishan enter, the young man hurriedly stubbed out his cigarette and stood up to greet him.

"Third Uncle, you're back!"

"Why are you here?" Guo Qishan was somewhat surprised by the young man's arrival.

"Third Uncle, I had some free time today, so I stopped by to see you," the young man smiled ingratiatingly. "A new private kitchen restaurant opened nearby. I tried it, and the taste is good; it's the Cantonese food you like. How about I treat you to lunch there?"

Guo Qishan frowned imperceptibly, then loosened his tie and walked behind his desk to sit in his boss chair.

"If you have something to say, just say it. I'm very busy today and don't have time to go eat with you."

The so-called "showing courtesy for no reason" usually meant someone was up to no good.

Even if his nephew didn't say it, he could guess the purpose of his visit this time.

"Hehe, what could I possibly have to say..." the young man laughed dryly. "It's just been a long time since I've come to see Third Uncle, so I came specifically."

"Really nothing? Then I'm going to have a video conference," Guo Qishan made a "please" gesture, clearly issuing an order to leave.

"Don't be like that, Third Uncle," the young man said, getting anxious seeing Guo Qishan's attitude. "I haven't been here for so long, don't you miss me at all?"

"If you have something to say, say it quickly, don't talk nonsense," Guo Qishan rolled his eyes at him. "Don't I know you?"

"Hehe..." the young man smiled, then continued, "I'm also concerned about you. Look at that kid surnamed Xu; how long has he been at the company, and he's already starting to buy people's hearts. After all, he's not one of our own. If he gains power, wouldn't Qingguo Music fall into the hands of an outsider?"

"Du Xiaowei was promoted by you personally, and even he couldn't be trusted, let alone this unknown brat Xu Tian..."

"Enough, look at your lack of ambition!" Guo Qishan looked down on his nephew's eager desire to replace others. "People who do big things must be able to keep their cool. How long has Xu Tian been at the company? Even if he has some influence, it's not enough to make the veterans in the company completely trust him."

"But..." the young man's expression changed, and because he couldn't gauge Guo Qishan's attitude, his tone became hesitant.

"We can't move him yet; we need to find a suitable opportunity," Guo Qishan changed the subject. "You are my nephew; I will definitely look out for you. Once he makes Qingguo Music's profits reach another level, you can parachute in. That way, you won't have to worry about not having performance results. I am your biological uncle; I won't let you suffer a loss."

"So Third Uncle, you had already planned it all out!" The young man's eyes lit up. "You really have a way!"

"During this time, don't be idle all day. Learn more about how to operate, and you also need to understand the internal situation of Qingguo Music thoroughly. Otherwise, even if you take over, you won't understand anything, and it will be hard to convince the crowd."

"Third Uncle, don't worry, I definitely won't let you down!" the young man replied confidently.

……

On the other side, after Xu Tian left the group headquarters, he called Yan Qingxue.

"Hello? I've applied for a chance for you to join the crew for the variety project at the headquarters. You can go and coordinate with the manager of the planning department."

"Really?" Yan Qingxue said in surprise. "No interview needed, just go and coordinate directly?"

"Yes, Guo Zong approved it personally, no interview needed," Xu Tian replied.

"It's just a planning position, so it doesn't need a grand mobilization and layer-by-layer selection. After all, there are producers and directors above, and Guo Qishan wouldn't go so far as to not give me this face."

"Although your say might not be high, you can accumulate experience on an S-level project."

Through Guo Qishan's attitude at the meeting today, Xu Tian had already anticipated that it wouldn't be long before he found a way to remove his position, so he would take advantage of the time before Guo Qishan took action to fight for more opportunities for Yan Qingxue.

Otherwise, it would be too late once he completely lost power at Qingguo Music.

"It doesn't matter, I'm just happy to have a work opportunity." Yan Qingxue didn't care whether she had a say in the project; she just wanted to work hard to improve her hard skills now. "I will definitely work hard to learn from those experienced seniors."

"Hmm, then you get busy. I'm not going back to the company at noon; Murong Xue is rehearsing at the theater recently, I'll go over to see her."

Xu Tian thought for a moment and then urged.

"Call me if anything happens."

"Don't worry, I'll contact you if anything happens."

At the same time, a certain magazine studio.

Wearing a long evening gown, heavy makeup, and having posed for half an hour, Nie Jingjing finally lost her patience and glared at the photographer opposite her.

"How much longer do you need to shoot?"

"Almost there! Almost there!" The young photographer was sweating profusely, constantly pressing the shutter. "Last set, Sister Jingjing, look at the lens!"

Hearing it was the last set, Nie Jingjing reluctantly put away the impatience in her eyes.

After the shoot ended, the magazine's editor-in-chief hurried over.

"Sister Jingjing, I've already booked a private kitchen restaurant for lunch, I'd like to invite you to have a meal..."

"I don't have time." Nie Jingjing didn't even look at the editor-in-chief, walking straight toward the dressing room.

"Sister Jingjing..." The editor-in-chief looked at the direction Nie Jingjing left with some disappointment, and only after she couldn't even see a shadow did she lower her head and spit in displeasure. "What a piece of work! Pfft! If it weren't for you having someone backing you, do you think I'd ask you to be on the cover?"

Of course, she only dared to say these complaints when Nie Jingjing wasn't around.

Nie Jingjing's assistant followed her back to the dressing room at a trot, and after entering, she immediately locked the door tightly.

At the same time, Nie Jingjing had already started taking off her jewelry and changing clothes.

"Sister Jingjing, why are you in such a hurry today? You clearly don't have any announcements this afternoon?"

"Announcements your sister!" Nie Jingjing rolled her eyes. "Only knowing about announcements all day long!" ===== CHAPTER 307 =====
