Chapter 89 - 89. Director Huang

Chapter 89. Director Huang

8 AM

Inside the PR Team office, there was a constant ringing of phones and all the people in the room were either typing or were busy taking the calls.

"Yes, yes, Director, with our relationship do you really think I would have gone elsewhere if I knew about this. It was really sudden on our side too. An interview, I have to see the schedule before confirming it. Don't worry, I will call you the earliest. Bye."

Director Kang ended the call with a sigh as she moved her shoulders up and down.

"Ah, it's the twelfth call that I have answered today. I still hadn't eaten my breakfast yet."

She said as she sighed heavily. There were dark circles under her eyes due to waking up early in the morning because of the incident.

"Me too! Director Kang, I thought that I can finally live in peace for sometime but I didn't expect that a viral video will come out this time."

A male employee said as he continued to typed in his laptop. He was sending out press release to the media.

"Yeah, I don't think the video will subside for a while. Xin Ren isn't even a singer, why is the video of him playing the guitar getting viral."

"Who knows. Anyway, it seems to be good for him as «The stars above» is going to premier after the spring festival."

Some other employees said as they chimed in. Their eyes were sleepy but they were still working regardless of any sleep.

"Yeah, it looks like Arc production was very happy when his video went viral. They were looking for something to increase their drama's popularity. What's better than having a video of the male lead getting viral."

Director Kang said as she rubbed her eyes.

"But what about the other girl in the video? Her agency should be shocked by her sudden viral video?"

"Yeah, it seems that they were in more mess than us as they are a new agency. Since, their PR Team is still new, they are having lots of problems but either way, they all are happy."

"Yeah, but I didn't knew that Xin Ren can play the guitar."

Director Kang said as she played the viral video of him and Lin Ru performing the song.

"Yeah, he seems to have some knowledge about music and I think his vocals are also good. We can have him debut as a singer."

"That will be for the CEO to decide but I think it's a good idea."

"Yeah, but what will we do? We should use the momentum of the song to push Xin Ren, right."

An employee said and Director Kang looked at him and replied.

"Yeah, it's a good opportunity for us to push Xin Ren and «The stars above» but without us doing anything, his name is going up in the real-time search rankings. We should stabilise our position first."

"And even if we want to push him more, it's to the CEO to decide in the end."

A female employee said and the male employee besides her tilted his head and asked.

"Why will be the CEO be the one deciding? I thought that she let the department directors do these type of things."

"Yeah, you are right but it's Xin Ren we are talking about. Most of his activities are approved by the CEO herself."

Inside the CEO's office

There were three people currently present inside the CEO's office.

They were the domineering CEO Xu, the carefree and ambitious Director Zhao and the third person was the director of the idol department, Director Huang.

"Although he's good at singing and is a slightly good actor, I really think he's getting too out of the hand."

A rough and dissatisfied voice leaked out from the rough beardy man seated in the CEO's office. He was Directed Huang, the director of the idol department.

"Did you just said a slightly good?"

Director Zhao said as he scoffed. The relationship between them was not good as they both were complete parallel to each other.

"I did and we are not talking about his acting, right now. I think that he is getting too out of the hand. Last time, he even asked for a trainee to take an audition. It looks there is no infrastructure in the company."

"The CEO approved of her. You don't have a say about what happens in my department."

"But he even went against a director. What do you want to say about that?"

Director Zhao laughed when he heard that and said with ridicule in his eyes.

"That director's niece was harassing a trainee and he knew about it but he didn't said anything and didn't even tried to stop him."

"He has not been proven guilty yet."

"It's just a matter of time."

The board of director's meeting had already happened but there was no resignation from the director as there were many other director's supporting him.

But it was a matter of time for his resignation as CEO Xu had already called for the investigation.

'Interesting!'

As both the director's were quarreling with each other, CEO Xu just ignored them and was glancing at the video playing in front of her.

It was the video of Ren and Lin Ru performing the song, The stars in the sky.

CEO Xu looked at the video with a interested gaze as various plans formed in her mind.

"Do you have any way to contact Lin Ru's agency?"

"I think the PR Team have their contact info."

Director Zhao stopped his quarrel with Director Huang and said.

"Then, tell them that I want to talk to their CEO. It would be better if it is face to face."

"What do you want to talk to him about, CEO?"

Director Huang asked as he tilted his head.

"Just some things about the future. By the way, Is Xin Ren here yet?"

"Yeah, he had just reached the company."

"Good. Tell him to come to the office. I want to talk with him...….personally."
