NOVPUBChapter 973: Chapter 629: Layout Chapter 973 -629: Layout Shi Yuan Entertainment鈥檚 Chairman鈥檚 office had barely changed in decor and layout, still retaining the style of the former Chairman, Qin Zixuan, except for a selfie of Sun Qing placed on the desk; everything else remained unchanged.
Acting Chairman Sun Qing, in her interaction with Ding Qian, expressed a warmth in her words unlike before, her demeanor becoming significantly more enthusiastic.
Sun Qing had only been in office for four days as the acting chairman.
She knew that her ability to hold this position depended entirely on the big boss鈥檚 nod of approval.
Whether or not she could secure her position and remove the 鈥渁cting鈥 part also heavily relied on that man鈥檚 attitude.
A simple nod from him or just a slight frown could lead to two drastically different outcomes for her future.
Thus, Sun Qing was desperate to please the big boss.
...
Upon learning that the top trainee, Leng Ruodan, had developed an intimate relationship with the big boss, Sun Qing had someone investigate the matter.
The investigation revealed that Leng Ruodan indeed got into the big boss鈥檚 car after work that night, and later, someone spotted the big boss hosting a dinner exclusively for Leng Ruodan at the Si Ji Ge Private Club.
Reportedly, Leng Ruodan did not return until the early morning.
What exactly happened during those hours was known only to Leng Ruodan and the big boss.
Driven by the belief that it was better to gamble and fail than to miss the opportunity, Sun Qing decided to take a chance.
Since Mr.
Chu favored beautiful women, she would create opportunities for him.

As the acting chairman, she exercised her power for the first time by doubling the promotional resources for the top trainee Leng Ruodan from five percent directly to ten percent.
Meanwhile, all other top-tier artists at Shi Yuan Entertainment, including Lin Wanqiu and Sun Qing herself, still only received five percent of the resources.
Leng Ruodan, a mere trainee, suddenly received ten percent of the resources, equaling what last year鈥檚 top trainee Ding Qian received.
If everything went as expected, with such an abundance of resources, Leng Ruodan could at least start off at a top-tier level, and if the company continued its strong support, Leng Ruodan might even stabilize her position among international superstars.
Sun Qing鈥檚 first major move since taking office was to strongly push for Leng Ruodan, which came as a surprise to everyone and consequently, caused dissatisfaction among many veteran top-tier artists.
Originally, Sun Qing was considering how to balance the company鈥檚 relationships, but today, everything seemed to fall naturally into place.
The big boss increased his investment in the company, with fifty billion set to arrive within the year.
With more money came an implication that the company was headed for another round of expansion, where opportunities and resources would swell once again.
As for the previous conflicts planted within the company, they would be consumed in this rapid expansion.
Sun Qing knew that the big boss鈥檚 decision to invest was solely due to Ding Qian, who had just returned from the film city and had gone to the big boss鈥檚 house, staying there for four days.
Upon her return, the big boss increased his investment, the implication of which was clear without saying much.
Because Sun Qing had planned to ingratiate herself with the big boss, she would certainly not fail to meet his expectations.
Therefore, in her dealings with Ding Qian, the great contributor, she was exceptionally polite.
鈥淭ry this.
These are tea leaves that I specifically brought from my hometown during my last visit.
Each leaf was handpicked by my mother and produced by us.
It鈥檚 more reliable than what you find on the market.鈥
After personally pouring a cup of tea for Ding Qian, Sun Qing did not take her usual seat in the imposing CEO鈥檚 chair but instead sat beside Ding Qian.
She didn鈥檛 carry herself with the authority befitting the chairman of a hundred-billion corporation but rather, was all smiles like a friendly older sister from next door:
鈥淨ian, we truly owe you a lot this time.
If it wasn鈥檛 for the five hundred billion you brought in just in time, who knows how those people would have behaved.
But now, the company will have plenty of resources.
At this juncture, if anyone dares to step out of line, I鈥檒l make sure they regret it.
By the way, Qian, here鈥檚 what I鈥檓 thinking.
You will still enjoy ten percent of the company鈥檚 resources, the same treatment as Leng Ruodan.
Additionally, I鈥檒l allocate another thirty percent of the resources from this five hundred billion to you, bringing your total share to about twenty-five percent, which is slightly more than our company鈥檚 top star Ding Xiaoni鈥檚 twenty percent.
What do you think of this arrangement?鈥
Sun Qing was devoid of any hierarchical attitude and spoke as if they were equals because she knew that Ding Qian was someone Mr.
Chu had his sights on.
A year ago, when Ding Qian was still just a trainee, the big boss had already noticed her and even collaborated with Shangyuan Entertainment to allocate several billion worth of resources to promote her.
It was only because Ding Qian was initially resistant that the opportunity fell into Ding Xiaoni鈥檚 lap, which eventually made her the top star of the company.
Having witnessed everything firsthand, Sun Qing remembered this vividly.
She also deeply understood the significant role Ding Qian played in the heart of the big boss.
If Ding Qian could whisper a few good words about her to the big boss, then Sun Qing鈥檚 position as chairman would be secure.
