Chapter 984 - 893: Not to Be Overlooked
Take Old Sir Lu, for example.The circle is only so big, and any event that happens to someone can spread rapidly within half a day.
Earlier, someone had asked Old Sir Lu in a sarcastic tone whether his eldest daughter-in-law and his youngest son’s girlfriend were in conflict, as they had a terrible argument on Weibo.
Of course, Old Sir Lu understood the principle of profit above all. But when questioned directly, he felt at a disadvantage, making it unavoidable to inquire about the matter.
Therefore, on a rest day morning, Old Sir Lu summoned Lu Qing, Qin Miaomiao, and Lu Xing back to personally inquire about the matter.
Lu Qing and Lu Xing knew nothing about it.
These days, Lu Xing tried incessantly to place his own people in the company. Lu Qing watched indifferently, sometimes creating trouble for him, sometimes giving him benefits, letting Lu Xing have his way. The company’s working atmosphere was somewhat strange for a while.
Lu Qing’s assistant admitted that recently the CEO’s thoughts have been hard to predict. Matters they presumed the CEO would approve, he would oppose. Or vice versa.
And ordinary employees were more concerned about their own interests: whether there was going to be a change in upper management. A new leader might mean a complete overhaul of the middle management...
The two men usually passed each other in the company with fake smiles. Today, out of respect for Old Sir Lu, they returned with little expression. Only when asked about this matter did a shared surprise flash across their faces, and they simultaneously asked, "What matter?"
Qin Miaomiao didn’t expect a movie promotion to alarm Old Sir Lu and immediately smiled, "Ads are inevitably exaggerated. Honestly, I haven’t even been on Weibo recently. What exactly happened?"
Old Sir Lu lightly coughed, "It’s not a big deal. It’s just rumors outside that you and Lu Xing’s girlfriend aren’t getting along, which doesn’t look too good."
Qin Miaomiao naturally wouldn’t admit it, "Business and personal matters should be seen separately. I have never had a falling out with Lu Xing’s girlfriend, um, Ms. Mo. Even competing for box office numbers is a healthy competition. Those words about our discord are just hype to attract traffic."
Old Sir Lu shook his head and sighed, "I heard one of your company’s artists is often rumored to be divorced. Your industry is really about making much out of nothing. Grandpa is old, really not used to it."
When leaving Old Sir Lu’s villa, Lu Qing proactively asked about the issue, "Has your rivalry with Mo Wenwan escalated to the point of alarming Old Sir Lu?"
Qin Miaomiao didn’t expect it either; it was supposed to be just pre-release hype for a movie, yet it caused such a stir. But having some commotion is better than being unnoticed.
"These are just PR tactics." Qin Miaomiao casually replied.
Lu Qing was noncommittal, "Is that so?"
Qin Miaomiao said, "It’s just the fans under the artists making noise now. Some fans aren’t very mature, hence the chaos. But once the movie is released, what’s good or bad will be evident."
Lu Qing said, "There’s no first place in literature or second in martial arts; it’s hard to determine a winner when it involves artistic works, isn’t it?"
Qin Miaomiao said, "According to my understanding of Mo Wenwan... this contest should produce a clear winner."
Seeing her confidence, Lu Qing didn’t ask further, but privately instructed his secretary to monitor Qin Miaomiao’s company’s new movie release dynamics.
Hua Tiantian’s scenes temporarily wrapped up, freeing her schedule. She didn’t have her assistant book new gigs; instead, she invited her friends out.
No matter how busy work gets, friends shouldn’t be neglected.
Qin Miaomiao, Hua Tiantian, and Xu Jiaojiao, the three of them met at a themed restaurant.
