Huayu: Rising from Tencent

Chapter 60 The Subtle Tactics of Nominee Shareholding

With "Seven" in hand, Shen Ci felt a sense of accomplishment.

Zhang Ruonan was bored staying alone in the hotel, and it happened to be the weekend, so her secretary had little time to rest.

Shen Ci glanced at the time and called Lin Xin.

The phone kept ringing until it was about to hang up automatically before Lin Xin hurriedly answered it.

"Mr. Shen, what's wrong?"

Lin Xin had finally looked forward to a weekend where she could sleep in, but was woken up early in the morning. She cursed Shen Ci in her heart.

"Are you alright today?" Shen Ci asked.

"It's alright," Lin Xin sighed inwardly, forcing herself to cheer up. "Is there any kind of work?"

"Go to Zhang Ruonan's place later, have a meal with her, go shopping, and have some fun."

Shen Ci instructed, then added, "When you go shopping, buy some things too, I'll reimburse you."

"OK!!!"

Upon hearing the words "reimbursement," Lin Xin's drowsiness vanished instantly, and she became energetic.

Seeing this, Shen Ci hung up the phone and sent a message to Zhang Ruonan, explaining that she had arranged for Lin Xin to go and keep her company.

After seeing the message, Zhang Ruonan felt that her brother was truly thinking of her in every possible way!

She was also a little worried, as she was still feeling unwell, and it would be so embarrassing if Lin Xin saw her like that.

Shen Ci sent a few more messages to Na Zha.

Naza is extremely busy promoting the film, running around to several promotional locations every day, and is exhausted.

The messages she sent to Shen Ci were all complaints.

Naza didn't reply to the message Shen Ci had just sent; she was fast asleep.

However, another message came back quickly; it was Reba.

After that meal, the two chatted almost every day.

The topics mostly revolve around everyday trivialities or reminiscing about the past.

Most of the time, it was Reba who initiated the conversation, and Shen Ci was happy to chat with her.

She sent Shen Ci a message yesterday, but he was too busy to reply at the time and only just saw it and replied.

Shen Ci was quite curious, so he asked, "Woke up so early?"

Within two seconds, Reba replied: "Yeah, I came to the company, there's a meeting, it's so miserable."

Shen Ci replied, "Another meeting?"

Reba: "Yeah, there's a problem with 'Carat'."

"..."

Shen Ci was speechless; this film crew was really having one problem after another.

Reba: "Filming was originally scheduled to start this month, but Da Tangtang didn't join the crew. They said it would be postponed for a month."

Shen Ci: "Such a big shot!"

Reba: "Haha, they're famous, I'm just a nobody, I can't even complain."

Shen Ci: "Have your boss go and give that Tangtang a piece of his mind. Didn't they break up a long time ago? Perfect timing."

Reba laughed again when she saw the news, amused by Shen Ci's words.

As she was laughing, she caught a glimpse of Yang Mi's gaze and immediately stopped smiling.

"What are you laughing at?" Yang Mi asked, her brows furrowing slightly and her tone carrying a hint of displeasure.

Reba panicked and quickly shook her head, explaining in a flustered manner, "I came across a funny news article."

Yang Mi rolled her eyes and said, "Be serious, what are you doing playing on your phone?"

Reba immediately sat up straight and placed his hands properly on the conference table.

She wondered to herself, also curious, what was Yang Mi doing here so early?

Instead of staying comfortably in bed with her husband, she insists on coming to the company and causing trouble. Doesn't she find it troublesome?

Yang Mi doesn't want to be at the company often, but since the company has just been established, she wants to show her face there more often...

Make sure both employees and artists can see her!!

Jiaxing has several shareholders who fawned over her during the company's preparation stage.

However, as soon as the company was established and 3 million yuan of external funds were injected, Yang Mi noticed that Zeng Jia and others' attitudes had changed.

The fact that Jiaxing was able to be successfully established and receive huge investments is largely due to its reputation and influence.

Without her, Zeng Jia wouldn't even be a pile of shit!

On weekends, very few people work at Tencent Video.

There used to be two staff members on duty at the front desk, but now there's only one left.

As soon as Shen Ci entered the company, the receptionist reported:

"Mr. Shen, Ms. Long Danni has arrived and is waiting in the lounge."

"Bring her to my office."

After giving his instructions, Shen Ci walked towards his office.

Not long after, there was a knock on the office door. Long Danni pushed the door open and entered. Seeing Shen Ci, she smiled and said:

"Mr. Shen, I am extremely grateful for Xiao Zhan's matter! I am truly thankful for giving me so much face."

Shen Ci waved his hand, gesturing for her to sit down. He was too lazy to talk about this; serious matters were the most important thing.

"How's your decision?" Shen Ci cut to the chase.

Long Danni answered seriously:

"Mr. Shen, I've made up my mind. I've submitted my resignation to my company and am just waiting for the process to be completed."

"That's good." Shen Ci smiled and then asked, "Have you thought of a name for the company?"

"Not yet, Mr. Shen, do you have any ideas?" Long Danni asked.

Shen Ci paused for a moment, then uttered four words: "Waaaaaa."

"Well....."

Long Danni was taken aback. This name sounded like something a child would come up with while playing house, but she replied, "It's a good name."

"It's a good name," Shen Ci repeated, then added, "Once the company is established, I will arrange for two new employees to join."

Long Danni's heart skipped a beat, and she asked tactfully, "So, this is someone President Shen has taken a liking to?"

Shen Ci nodded and explained:

"They are both young girls, one is the female lead in 'Chef Fang,' and the other is the second female lead."

Bringing Zhang Ruonan and Wang Churan into Wajijiwa Entertainment would make it easier for us to nurture them.

Of course, Wang Churan was included as well.

Since I've decided to use her, she's now part of this industry, so I can't let outsiders benefit from her.

Long Danni had heard of the two girls, and she knew about Zhang Ruonan from the beginning.

Wang Churan only learned about it because of the change of actress for the second female lead in "Fang Da Chu".

When the second female lead was replaced, the original actress, Zhu Jiaxi, questioned the production team about it, making the whole crew aware of the situation.

"That would be wonderful. I've heard of these two young ladies; they're both very promising newcomers with a bright future."

Long Danni could lie without batting an eye. She thought to herself that it would be right to go along with Shen Ci's words.

Shen Ci said, "Their signing with the company won't affect your idol business. Just proceed according to your plan."

Long Danni secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Actually, she had some concerns beforehand, fearing that the arrival of these two newcomers would disrupt her rhythm and affect the progress of the business.

Now that Shen Ci has said this, she understands...

Shen Ci simply placed the person in the company; she didn't need to worry about other matters.

This situation is like having two teams working in a foot massage parlor.

One is a legitimate business, while the other may have some other tricks up its sleeve, but they generally don't interfere with each other.

"President Shen," Long Danni said, leaning closer to Shen Ci as if remembering something, "Should we have someone hold the company shares on our behalf?"

Shen Ci understood what she meant.

Within this circle, executives at several future platforms often resort to this tactic for personal gain.

"Waji's investors are Tencent, and no individuals are involved."

He is not short of money, and the shares of Wajijiwa are not very attractive to him.

Long Danni realized she had been a bit presumptuous and said awkwardly, "It was my fault for not thinking things through and for being too talkative."

"Alright, let's speed up the company's establishment process. My funding application will be completed soon."

"Thank you, Mr. Shen!!"

Long Danni quickly stood up, bowed to Shen Ci, and expressed her gratitude.
