[However, the attention on Tianlai has not decreased; on the contrary, it has become increasingly prominent as the challenge approaches.]

[The host successfully dissed the opponent; reward: +3 Strength.]

Because Teana has been keeping a very low profile lately, and the recording camera hidden in this office has been removed.

It seems that Zhu Tian and his group are unaware of what Tianlai has been up to lately.

Since the last recording incident, Tianlai has been unusually low-key.

No one knows what tricks Teana is up to.

According to their speculation, one side believes that Tianlai is holding back a big move, keeping a low profile for a while, and waiting for the challenge to begin before shining brightly.

On the other hand, some people believe that Tianlai is currently defunct in name only, with no real trump cards. The reason it is so low-key is simply because it made grand promises but has no way to deliver.

Of course, there are other opinions as well.

These were all things Qin Xiyao had told Luo Chen before.

The two had different opinions on these matters.

Luo Chen didn't think it was a big deal.

After all, people can say whatever they want, and that's none of our business. Only by demonstrating our strength can we shut them up.

Of course, what he cared about most was the competition with Ye Feng.

The other party wants to kill Tianlai and torture her slowly. What Luo Chen needs to do now is to prevent Ye Feng from succeeding.

Putting aside the plot, given Ye Feng's actions, Luo Chen didn't even consider being modest.

Given the current situation of the Luo family, coupled with the construction of the western and northern districts of Ningcheng, if they were to have such a reputation-damaging incident or stain when they were to advance to the ranks of super families, it would still become a topic of discussion even after the Luo family had achieved super family status.

It's laughable.

You might not hear it openly, but you'll definitely hear it behind the scenes.

The more people talk about it, the more complicated things become.

Public opinion is a terrifying thing; in this era of big data, it spreads incredibly quickly.

No matter your identity or background, it's unpleasant for anyone to be involved.

Unless the world ends or a bigger hot topic emerges, it will be difficult to end this.

Luo Chen didn't care about any of this.

Things haven't gotten to the worst yet, and besides, he wasn't unprepared.

They've already snatched it away several times; what originally belonged to Ye Feng is now none of his business.

The problem isn't too bad.

Sitting opposite Luo Chen, Qin Xiyao remained expressionless. Seeing Luo Chen's relaxed and indifferent demeanor, it seemed as if what she had said earlier wasn't so serious.

What he said to Luo Chen earlier seemed brief and not too verbose or detailed.

But at least they only picked out the key points to discuss.

Zhu Tian and his group are currently unaware of Tian Lai's current situation and cannot guess what big moves Tian Lai might make or what she intends to do.

Even those within the company are currently unaware of its plans for the approaching challenge.

There are no new artists joining, nor are there any plans to poach artists to fill the gaps.

Everything proceeded as before, without any changes.

The people inside the company were naturally aware of the rumors circulating outside, and even they almost believed what those people were saying. After all, as employees of Tianlai, even they didn't understand what was going on inside the company.

Naturally, there will be doubts and a lack of confidence.

Qin Xiyao didn't even think about explaining to them.

On the one hand, I don't know how to explain it.

On the other hand, there was also concern that there might still be people from Zhu Tian's side inside the company.

They even managed to secretly install a recording camera.

It seems quite normal for internal staff to have their own spies.

Furthermore, Qin Xiyao didn't know how to complain about Leng Shao and the other three.

After observing them for a few days, it became clear that the four of them were indeed very serious and dedicated.

But looking at those flashy and exaggerated dance moves, and the cement dust flying all over the rehearsal room...

In this situation, whether or not one can be selected for the challenge is no longer the primary concern.

Rather, the question is whether the audience will laugh themselves to death.

At the same time, there is also the concern that openly polluting the environment on stage might lead to being reported on the spot and having one's qualification revoked.

At that time, not only will Tianlai's reputation plummet, but it will also become a laughing stock among its peers.

[...]

"I have a pretty good understanding of the situation. The challenge is coming up soon. What suggestions do you have?"

In this regard, if we're talking about who's more professional, it's naturally Qin Xiyao in front of us.

Luo Chen didn't think that his suggestion alone would guarantee victory, even though he knew the plot in advance.

At least some things will still change.

Some things are not shown at all; you have to go through them to understand them.

Having managed Tianlai for so long, Qin Xiyao is naturally more familiar with how to operate it than Luo Chen.

It is also more suitable.

"..."

Qin Xiyao felt even more speechless.

Why did you only ask her for advice now? Why didn't you ask her earlier?

Why didn't you do this sooner?

It was only at this point that I thought to ask her for advice.

Now, where are the suggestions?

Aren't all the current actions being carried out according to your wishes, Young Master Luo?

What she wanted to do was either rejected or impossible to do.

What advice can I give if I'm in this situation?

Besides, wasn't Luo Chen very confident in those four?

Asking this now, does it mean...?

Qin Xiyao thought of many things because of Luo Chen's words.

His emotions were also somewhat unstable.

If there had been more time earlier, Luo Chen would have asked her for advice.

Perhaps I wouldn't think too much about it, but if I ask now...

Then there's a big problem.

Putting aside whether there's enough time, given the current situation, there's no way to make adequate preparations.

At first, Luo Chen insisted on having Leng Shao and the others join Tianlai and become artists, and even thought of having them represent Tianlai in the Strongest Singer competition.

She already felt that this kind of thing was not very feasible.

There are just too many unstable things.

That's not very reliable either.

Although she was just as stubborn as Qin Zhengwen, she wasn't stubborn about everything.

Luo Chen is her boss, after all; it's her boss who has to make this decision.

Even if you're unwilling, you have to carry it out diligently.

If it weren't for Luo Chen's confident and decisive demeanor at that time, which gave people even a sliver of faith...

If I had known it would turn out like this, I should have objected on the spot.

Now ask it like this.

Luo Chen must have felt that Leng Shao and his group weren't really reliable.

Qin Xiyao looked at Luo Chen with annoyance.

Indeed, we cannot place our hopes on others. No matter how difficult things are, we still have to rely on ourselves to solve the problem.

I don't know if it's too late to regret it now.

At this point, Qin Xiyao had no hope for Tianlai's future.

There is truly no hope in sight.

No matter what she does now, she cannot bring Tianlai back to its former glory.
