By eight in the evening, the schedule for the third day had been released, and events were once again set to begin around five to six o’clock, just as the sun was setting.
Presumably, this was done to consider the heat of the summer days.
Upon getting the precise location and time of the events, Yu Ting arranged to meet with Shareholder Zhang at eleven.
Right... it was better to be indoors during the hottest time of the day than on the road.
Shareholder Zhang also confirmed that he would be available at eleven.
Yu Ting then contacted Song Zhan, asking him to write a concept for how the company should be operated and managed, before finally calling it a day. The next morning, she tidied up and joined Lu Nanchen on a self-drive to Pochuan City.
Because of Lu Nanchen’s steady but not so fast driving pace, Yu Ting hired a driver. The black business car weaved its way through various highways and roads, reaching their destination after a bit more than three hours.
...
Meanwhile.
At Southwest Entertainment’s top floor office, seven o’clock.
In the midst of a scorching summer, Shen Ruchu’s office was cloaked in darkness, its curtains drawn to block out the piercing sunlight.
As usual, Shen Ruchu sat in her boss chair, working, with an all-day standby assistant standing before her desk.
A pile of documents lay before Shen Ruchu, with the assistant also holding a few files.
"How are the company’s recent projects progressing?" asked Shen Ruchu after quickly scanning and signing the documents before her.
To boost Southwest Entertainment’s valuation, the company had taken up projects for the majority of its mainline artists.
If they executed these projects successfully, they could make up for the previous losses!
"According to Miss Yu, everything is going smoothly so far." The assistant stood upright as he answered.
"That’s good. Keep a close eye on the projects; we can’t afford any slip-ups this time! If things go well, rewards will be given; if they go wrong, salaries will be docked!" Shen Ruchu said sternly, her eyes widened considerably.
"Yes."
...
"However, Madam Shen, there seems to be some movement on the board of directors recently," reported the assistant after a few minutes of silence.
Shen Ruchu: ?
"What kind of movement?"
"Board member Zhang Hao has a business trip tomorrow and is meeting with Yu Ting today."
This casual statement startled Shen Ruchu, who couldn’t stop her mind from dwelling on the worst-case scenarios.
"Moreover, Mr. Chen from the board said that Yu Ting has been privately buying up shares in Southwest Entertainment..."
Mr. Chen was also informing them that he was willing to sell his shares.
For one million, he told Southwest Entertainment about his plans early on.
Upon hearing this, Shen Ruchu felt like a string snapped inside her head, her face pallid as she violently threw the documents on her desk to the ground.
"How dare Yu Ting!"
"Get the car ready!"
Buys shares?
Trying to push me out?
As she thought about it, Shen Ruchu’s face twisted even more, her chest heaving with anger as her hands trembled.
"Do you know where and what time Yu Ting and Zhang Hao are meeting?" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"R-Replying to Madam Shen, they’ve scheduled a meeting for eleven at a five-star restaurant."
Everything can be arranged if there’s money involved. Mr. Chen got all the details from Zhang Hao before the meeting and already relayed the specifics to the assistant.
