Chapter 661: Taking care of business

There was a lot of nervousness as directors and executives faced CEO Chi who was stone faced in the board room as she waited for them to start speaking, one at a time. There were a few other familiar faces of employees who were not part of the top management but were here out of necessity or on invitation.

"Begin." Chi Lian said. She was sitting in the central position of the leader and old tiger was standing behind her. In front of her were documents in pink folders and nobody knew what was in them. It frightened them, as they wondered if any of their departments was related to the folders in any way.

It was just one word but she said it so coldly with a frightening gaze that more people’s nerves tingled.

"How much has been lost in my absence?" She asked.

Heads turned as grown men and women looked at each other. They communicated with their eyes, speaking to one another secretly. But their silent language was very readable to her.

"You go first."

"No, you go first."

"Should I begin?" She asked and touched the folders.

Gu Xixi jumped up from her seat and said with a nervous smile, "CEO, I will begin." Then, she touched her tablet and turned to the monitor in the room and opened a file, "In the past week, we have lost some revenue in the form of sponsorships. Six companies that advertise with us abruptly pulled out. We received no warning..."

"Do you know why they pulled out?" She asked Gu Xixi, cutting her off.

The information she was stating was already known to her as T4 had provided it.

"These three," Gu Xixi circled them, "They received loans from City Bank. One of the CEO’s claimed that the bank was threatening to close on their loans if they did not rescind their sponsorship."

"Who are they advertising with now?" She asked.

"Mango TV, NBTV and HTV." Gu Xixi explained.

"How much in losses have we incurred?" Chi Lian asked.

"One hundred ten million." Bear said. She did not stand up from where she was and she responded confidently.

"Noted." Chi Lian said. "Next."

Everyone was expecting her to fly up and shout with rage, calling them lazy or inadequate but she did not, which surprised and calmed their nerves.

Another director, a man stood as soon as Gu Xixi sat down. "CEO, uhm, it’s about the show touching hearts. It was one of those that lost sponsorship and it’s ratings have been struggling. Unlike tea with a princess which cannot be duplicated, this show is different. Every TV station has their own version of the show now, they use different names but the concept is the same?"

"Who is in charge, the pd?" She asked.

A producer in one of the back seats jumped up, "It’s me, CEO."

This was pd Fu, pd Rao’s close friend and colleague.

"What do you think?" She asked him.

Pd Fu looked at Pd Rao and the other hissed at him and nodded, it seemed like this was something they had discussed before.

"Don’t dally, I don’t have all day here pd Fu." Chi Lian said casually.

Pd Fu nodded eagerly and he said, "It’s a lost cause CEO, the entire team is trying its best but the show is dead. It’s ratings are in the bottom, if possible, I suggest that it be terminated and we find something fresh and interesting."

"Understood," she said. "Next."

Another man stood up, he was a former pd but newly promoted as the coordinator of all the programs.

"Uhm, the drama the princess’s man will finish airing this week. It’s ratings have been very good and it has been in top position every night right from the on set. We are supposed to replace it with something new but,..." he stopped talking.

"Spit it out." Chi Lian told him.

"Phoenix entertainment has a new drama, world of the married but Royal entertainment came to us with a drama, the silent night which features many of their own actors. I have seen the first two episodes of the silent night and in comparison to world of the married, the silent night is better. Also when it comes to the cost of exclusive acquisition and airing, royal entertainment is ten percent lower than phoenix entertainment. I approached General manager Lu Xiao Wan with this news and gave her my opinion but she insists that we acquire world of the married. I think this is not the right move, I know that phoenix Ent is a sister company of ours but..."

"Then you already know what my answer will be director. I am with the general manager, we stay with phoenix Ent." Chi Lian answered before he could go into an opinionated rant that he had already sent to her email, been read and ignored. Not on purpose but because of the timing. Moreover, world of the married was one of her scripts that she copied from her old earth.

"Yes CEO." The director did not look happy but he sat down.

A few others thought, we told him to abandon this hopeless quest but he insisted on presenting it before the CEO, does he want her to alienate him? Phoenix entertainment goes hand in hand with the media company, to try and screw them is crazy.’

"Next." Chi Lian said.

She listened to five more people who raised different concerns and how those issues were affecting the financial status of the company and when they finished, she opened her files.

"It’s my turn." She said, and a few hearts dropped.

What she was doing, Muyang was too, only that he was doing it with a laptop while sitting up in the bed of a private ward in the science park where many assumed that he was being treated.

Three hours later, Chi Lian ended the long meeting and everyone broke off for lunch, which they were late for. The meeting had longer than everyone expected. They were hungry but they left with smiles after she provided solutions and new ideas that revamped them.

For example pd Fu who was smiling broadly and showing pd Rao a file which Wenli had given to him.

"I like the title of this new show already, singles inferno. It sounds exciting and the CEO said it will have many seasons."

"Treat me to a meal when the success comes, I am the one who advised you to dump that dead show." Pd Rao answered.

Other directors were having similar conversations, and others were happy because new sponsorships had come in. They had to meet the higher upside in charge of those companies but the previous loss was going to washed away.

"By the way, have you all seen the pictures online of the crowds outside the lobby?" A female director asked Gu Xixi.

"Oh, those are Wu Liang and Bei Qing’s fans. Don’t you know that tonight is part one of the big reveal on tea with with the princess. They will be here to discuss what ruined their friendship and set them on a long path of two decades long of enmity." Gu Xixi answered. "I am worried that the fans will break out into a fight out there."

"That will make it more entertaining." Someone who heard them said.

"Our company will be covered by the peep star again at this rate." Another said.

A few people laughed, and others shared their opinions.

"Everything is much more entertaining when the CEO returns."

"I bet the cafeteria has gone above and beyond now that the CEO is back."

All of them moved together, following the CEO to the cafeteria as they looked forward to a sumptuous meal.
