Chapter 193 My Boyfriend is Closer than My Father
Jiang Bo never dreamed that Xin Ruo really poached An Ruo.
No, how did he do it?
Jiang Bo was smoking by the window, unable to figure out what was going on.
There is no point in competing with Xinruo for the ranking now. What's the point of suppressing Zhang Susu when they still have Anruo.
It would only make sense if you suppressed An Ruo.
As for suppressing An Ruo...
I hit An Ruo?
real or fake?
Will it win?
Guaranteed death, brother.
An Ruo's popularity is not on the same level as other singers now. It goes without saying that she can't compare to them.
Jiang Bo said that he voted and had to admit that Chu Ze was indeed stronger now.
It would be more appropriate to let Chu Ze be the general manager.
He can't dig An Ruo away.
……
Right now, the discussion on the internet about An Ruo signing with Xin Ruo Entertainment is in full swing.
Originally, due to Xia Anruo's recommendation, the popularity of "Fruits of Midsummer" was rising steadily online, and many people discovered that Zhang Susu's entertainment company was Xinruo Entertainment.
At that time, many netizens were still joking:
"Is it really okay for An Ru to promote singers from other companies like this?"
"Xinghua, please come out and take care of things. Your leading actress has rebelled."
It was originally a joking comment, but not long after, the official Weibo account of Xinruo Entertainment posted a Weibo, announcing that it had officially signed An Ruo as its singer.
Xia Anruo also responded on Weibo that she was very happy to join Xinruo Entertainment and hoped to have fun working together. She also thanked her old agency Xinghua for their help and support.
Netizens and fans were all stunned.
We are just kidding, are you serious?
You really are a traitor.
They didn't act like prophets.
However, this kind of job-hopping is very normal, and there have been news speculations that An Ruo will not renew her contract with Xinghua and will sign with Xinruo Entertainment, so it is not something particularly surprising.
But there are still black spots running out:
"Xinghua has worked so hard to train Anruo for so long and brought her up to where she is now, but now that she's famous, she's running away. She's so ungrateful."
Seeing this kind of comment, someone immediately came out to refute:
"An Ruoyu's current achievements are all due to the songs written by Tudou, and have little to do with Xinghua."
"That's right, An Ruo's popularity is all thanks to Tu Dou's songs."
"An Ruo is so popular and has helped Xinghua make a lot of money, so how can she be ungrateful?"
Anyway, the haters and fans each have their own reasons. When the two sides were arguing, Xinghua’s official Weibo also posted:
Let’s part ways in peace. I wish Anruo new glory in the new stage.
Well, since Xinghua has no objection, those black fans naturally can’t take advantage of the situation.
This matter has come to an end.
……
The day after the signing was announced, Xia Anruo and Liao Qing came to Xinruo Entertainment. There were already a lot of media reporters waiting at the company's door. As soon as Xia Anruo appeared, there was a series of shutter sounds, and then they all surrounded her and tried to ask her some inside information about why she left Xinghua and joined Xinruo.
However, they were soon stopped by the security guard at the door. Liao Qing protected Xia Anruo as she entered the company, and then, led by the person in charge of reception, they took the elevator to the general manager's office.
Seeing Xia Anruo and his group walking through the corridor, the employees below all looked around and talked at once:
"Oh my god, An Ruzhen is here."
"I heard that Mr. Chu poached him here."
"Is Mr. Chu so powerful? I thought he was just a relative."
"Have you heard? The song "Fruits of Midsummer" that's now number one on the new song list was written by President Chu himself."
"real or fake?"
"Really? It seems that Director Chen said that Zhang Susu was also a newcomer selected by President Chu himself. As a result, she topped the new song chart as soon as she debuted and became a hit."
"Oh my god, Mr. Chu is so good at writing songs?"
"I also heard that the company recently invested in a TV series adapted from Mr. Chu's novel."
"So Mr. Chu is still a talented person?"
"No wonder President Xia insisted on letting President Chu take the position. It turns out he has a keen eye for talent."
"How come you guys are so well-informed? I've never heard of it."
For a time, everyone in the company was talking about it and looked at Chu Ze differently.
I thought I was a bronze rank, but turned out to be a king rank.
General Manager’s Office.
"Come, let me introduce you. This is the Art Director Chen Liang, this is the Deputy Director Wu Meijun, and this is..."
Chu Ze introduced to Xia Anruo one by one several key executives in the company with whom she would come into contact.
"Those people will be my immediate superiors from now on. Please take care of them." Xia Anruo smiled and stretched out her hand.
Chen Liang was also very excited and shook hands with Xia Anruo: "No, no, Miss Anruo is joking."
Although all the singers in the company are under Chen Liang's management, it is only in name. He dare not manage someone of Xia Anruo's level. He is the boss of the company and he has to be supported.
Moreover, Chen Liang had never thought that An Ru would really come, and he had no idea how Chu Ze had tricked her into coming.
For the first time, he felt a little admiration for this young man from the bottom of his heart.
Chu Ze: It’s just sacrificing a little bit of chastity.
After everyone got to know each other, Chu Ze let everyone else leave, leaving only Xia Anruo and Liao Qing.
"You can come to them if you have any problems in the future." Chu Ze said.
"Why, can't I look for you?" Xia Anruo looked at Chu Ze with a smile.
"I don't understand anything. Even if you come to me, I have to go to them..." Chu Ze spread his hands helplessly, then thought of something and said, "From now on, just concentrate on singing. I won't let them bother you with those messy things."
Xia Anruo knew that Chu Ze didn't want her to be as busy as before, so she smiled softly:
"Thank you, Mr. Chu."
Liao Qing looked at this pair of dogs, who were singing in unison and acting very enthusiastically, with a strange look in his eyes.
"Boss Chu, I'm going to go and get my job first."
Liao Qing was very tactful and didn't stand here as a light bulb. It's not so much that he had good taste, but rather that he couldn't stand the sour smell of love.
Gone, gone.
After seeing Liao Qing leave, Xia Anruo slowly walked with her long legs to Chu Ze's desk, casually flipped through it twice, then sat down on the boss chair and hooked her finger at Chu Ze.
"Hey, Mr. Xia, what do you want me to do for you?" Chu Ze immediately put on a servile look and came over happily.
"Who are you?" Xia Anruo asked deliberately.
"I am your most loyal little henchman, Mr. Xia." Chu Ze nodded and bowed to flatter him.
"Hunter? I don't have such an ugly henchman, you are fired." Xia Anruo waved his hand.
Chu Ze raised his hand to protest: "I shed blood for An Ruo, I have done meritorious services for Xin Ruo, you can't do this to me."
"Then what should I do to you?" Xia Anruo asked with her head tilted.
"You're the boss, you should at least give me the title of boss lady." Chu Ze rubbed his hands and laughed. Xia Anruo chuckled: "Okay, I agree."
As she said that, she stood up from the chair and patted Chu Ze's face: "Did you miss me?"
"I miss you. We haven't seen each other for a month." Chu Ze nodded and grabbed Xia Anruo's hand that was caressing his face.
"Then why didn't I see it?" Xia Anruo blinked her beautiful eyes.
Chu Ze grabbed her delicate white little hand and kissed it.
"now what?"
"A little, but not much."
Xia Anruo pouted, still not satisfied.
Chu Ze looked at her alluring lips, understood what she meant, and put his arms around her slender waist, and sucked hard on her little mouth.
"Can you feel my longing this time?" Chu Ze asked.
"It's just barely okay." Xia Anruo pursed her lips and savored it.
“Is this barely possible?”
Chu Ze was surprised, wondering if this was a hint that Xia Anruo was sexually dissatisfied?
He thought about it, and then slowly moved his hand down from behind her to her little butt.
Feeling the dog's paws causing trouble from behind, Xia Anruo reached out her jade hand and slapped it away.
"You're not even honest in the office?" Xia Anruo glared at him.
"Didn't you say it was just barely enough?" Chu Ze said innocently.
"That doesn't mean you can be a hooligan." Xia Anruo said.
"What's so rude about this? We've already kissed..." Chu Ze muttered, and regardless of Xia Anruo's modesty, he quickly touched her perky little butt with his hand.
Xia Anruo pinched Chu Ze's face in anger and amusement: "What do you think your employees would think if they saw their general manager treating their singers like this?"
"Who dares to object to me touching my wife? I will fire anyone who objects." Chu Ze said confidently.
"Still practicing dictatorship?" Xia Anruo laughed.
"You must be kidding. I'm the general manager, and the general manager can do whatever he wants." Chu Ze held his head high, looking arrogant.
next second...
Dong-dong-dong, there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Chu, this is the list sent to you for your approval." Secretary Ding Jie walked in holding a stack of lists.
Chu Ze was so scared that he hurriedly let go of Xia Anruo's waist and sat upright in the boss chair.
Xia Anruo glanced at him sideways.
Is this what you mean by doing whatever you want?
What are you afraid of?
Chu Ze thought to himself that I did this to ensure the authority of my boss.
"Well, put it here. I'll take a look at it later." He said with a cough.
"okay."
When Ding Jie walked in and saw An Ruo there, she was stunned for a moment, then glanced at Chu Ze quietly, seeing him adjusting his collar as if feeling a little guilty. She glanced at An Ruo who was standing next to him, and she didn't know what she was thinking of. Her face turned red, and she put down the list and ran away.
"Did she misunderstand something?" Chu Ze scratched his head as he watched Ding Jie leave in a panic. He always felt that this little secretary had misunderstood something.
"Is it a misunderstanding?" Xia Anruo looked at him with a smile.
Chu Ze was speechless.
I always feel that the reputation I have finally restored from being an incompetent person with connections is about to be damaged again before it has even warmed up.
Incompetent → famous general → pervert.
……
After Xia Anruo joined Xinruo, Chu Ze finally had a great general to stabilize the morale of the troops.
Moreover, the success of Zhang Susu's debut song this time can be regarded as a song that made her famous.
At the same time, because she won the first place on the new song chart as soon as she debuted, she also caused a lot of controversy. Many people suspected that Zhang Susu had a background, and some even thought that she got to the top through unspoken rules, so the company gave her so many resources.
But no matter what, these are all blind guesses without evidence, and the quality of the song "Fruits of Midsummer" is indeed high, which is obvious, and Zhang Susu also attracted a large number of fans because of it.
Now is the time to strike while the iron is hot. Chu Ze immediately asked Chen Liang to arrange for Zhang Susu to appear on various singing variety shows to make herself known to the public, and then he quickly wrote a few more new songs for Zhang Susu. He believed that it would not take long for her popularity to explode.
Things in the singing circle are proceeding in an orderly manner, and Chu Ze is also preparing to get involved in the film and television industry.
"Director Cao, are you still short of actors? Come to our company and pick a few." Chu Ze called Cao Dexing.
"Mr. Chu, this is unacceptable. You still want to force people in?" Cao Dexing suffered a PTSD attack when he heard this.
"What do you mean by forcing someone in? I just want you to see if there are any suitable actors in our company. If there aren't any, forget it. I won't force you." Chu Ze explained.
"Are you sure?" Cao Dexing asked doubtfully.
"Of course. As the original author, I care about the quality of the TV series more than you do. What are you worried about?" Chu Ze found it a little funny to hear Cao Dexing acting like he was on guard against a thief.
"Okay, it happens that I haven't yet chosen the actors for the roles that you were not satisfied with last time. If you have any suitable ones, you can recommend them to me." Cao Dexing thought about it and agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Ze asked Chen Liang to choose the actors.
Although Xin Ruo's business is mainly in the music industry to train singers, it also involves the film and television industry, but it was not given much attention before.
Taking advantage of this opportunity of the TV series "Fighting Through the Heavens", Chu Ze plans to train some actors and try to enter the film and television industry.
……
Xia Jianjun was looking at the contract on the sofa. Without even looking up, he asked Xia Yuqin, who was sitting opposite him, "I heard that Ruoruo has now gone to Xinruo?"
"Yes." Xia Yuqin took a sip of tea and nodded.
"Hmph. In the beginning, this girl refused to stay in our company and insisted on running away. Now that she sees Xiao Chu has become the boss, she runs back again." Xia Jianjun shook the contract in his hand and snorted.
"After all, a boyfriend is closer to me than a father." Xia Yuqin stabbed Xia Jianjun expressionlessly.
"..."
Xia Jianjun covered his chest.
It hurts my sister.
"Xiao Chu, how is the company's profit in the past two months?" Xia Jianjun changed the subject.
"Not very good, but it's normal at the beginning. Now that Ruoruo is here, the future performance will definitely not be bad." Xia Yuqin said.
"I told him to succeed in his career before he could marry my daughter, but this guy is so good that he treats my daughter as his success." Xia Jianjun said angrily.
This kid is trying to get something for nothing with me, and what is he doing here?
Xia Yuqin laughed when she heard this, and then said, "Xiao Chu has just promoted a newcomer recently, and the effect is quite good. He also invested 20 million in a TV series. I guess he wants to develop the film and television business as well."
"Hehe, it seems that this kid is not doing nothing. He seems to have some ambitions." Xia Jianjun looked a little surprised when he heard this.
I thought Chu Ze was lucky enough to be able to maintain his capital, but I didn't expect him to expand his business. He is quite courageous.
"The risk is just too great. If you're not careful, you could easily lose everything." Xia Yuqin shook her head.
Chu Ze hasn't even mastered the company's current business yet, and he's trying to get into the film and television industry. If he stretches his legs too far, he might easily get hurt.
Anyway, Xia Yuqin was not very optimistic and felt it was too hasty.
"It depends on Xiaochu's own ability." Xia Jianjun smiled.
