Chapter 748: Chapter 748: Only After Marriage Can You Call Him Daddy (4)
“Yes,” Zhao Chen checked the schedule and cleared his throat, “The most important thing is the cooperation case with MG, which is personally overseen by President Gu and was to be discussed with Miss Lu…”
“Postpone the time, and when it comes to that, tell her to change the location for the discussion.”
After Lu Wanwan went to the company, she turned in a blank report for yesterday’s task.
After she explained, her boss’s eyebrows furrowed.
“Let’s put that matter aside for now, but we need to find a replacement for this issue’s cover person. Who do you think would be suitable?”
The last question was directed at Lu Wanwan.
Editor-in-chief Liang eyed her, knowing full well the background of this subordinate.
Perhaps many at the company only had a vague impression of her—those focused on the entertainment sector knew her as the ex-wife of the Gu heir and as someone entangled with Bai Lingyun of the head office in an unclear manner.
But he knew a bit more since several orders came directly from President Jiu.
And who was President Jiu? The man who oversaw the entire MG empire.
The most profitable part of the company was entertainment, not media which was not MG’s specialty.
Even within the entertainment industry, it was rare to have President Jiu personally intervene in affairs.
Yet he frequently ‘paid attention’ to this journalist who wasn’t considered that crucial within MG.
This suggested her background was indeed quite solid.
After all, Bai Lingyun and Gu Annan were both connected to President Jiu.
Nevertheless, regardless of whom it involved, it was unlikely that President Jiu would personally step into this aspect of the business.
He also knew of a rumor, revealed by a supervisor who had returned from Xigang.
The vice-president of MG’s United States division, the young master of the Jiu family, also had an ambiguously close relationship with her.
He always preferred not to comment much on subordinates’ private lives. Yet, if something could be leveraged for performance, there was no harm in making use of it.
Fortunately, this woman was not merely a decorative vase inserted into the company; she was diligent and had never behaved inappropriately due to her status at the company.
So when he assigned tasks to her, he did not need to be too considerate.
Including the last interview with Xiao Ye, he thought no one would be more suitable than Lu Wanwan.
Any journalist would easily be overwhelmed by Xiao Ye’s presence, and he was not disdainful of talking a few extra words with ordinary people.
But with Lu Wanwan, regardless of whose face it was for, Xiao Ye would at least take a look.
Moreover, he believed that as Gu Annan’s ex-wife, Lu Wanwan should be someone with a strong endurance for pressure.
“Editor-in-chief Liang, if we are going this route, Manchester should have many young entrepreneurs who could be interviewed,” she suggested.
Editor-in-chief Liang twirled a pen in his hands. There were indeed many, but none of them were fresh news.
The Xiao Ye matter was truly regrettable.
He didn’t expect that after finally arranging the interview, it would be disrupted by Xiao Lang.
Given Xiao Lang, he really didn’t dare to let her tackle that thorny issue again.
If something went wrong in the future and it was known to be on his orders, he was afraid he would not be able to endure the consequences.
“How about this, I can’t decide on a candidate for now. There is a corporation’s new product launch tonight, a colleague who was supposed to go has run into a temporary issue, so you fill in. This time, many of Manchester’s elite have been invited; see who might be appropriate, directly approach them, and schedule a time.”
Lu Wanwan remembered her original plans, “Editor-in-chief Liang, may I take a half-day off this afternoon? I’ve been feeling a little unwell recently and would like to see a doctor.”
“Are you sick?” Editor-in-chief Liang was startled.
“No, just a health checkup, not a big deal. I’ll be fine for the event tonight.”
