A middle-aged man nearing forty was praying in a group with several younger colleagues, hoping that this time the test results would be safe and sound. However, reality did not align with his wishes.
Xu Lei received the examination report and slowly scanned through it. Then, with a swift kick, he sent the middle-aged man's head crashing against the wall. As he spoke rapidly, his foot continued to rain down blows on the man. The other younger colleagues, who were closely associated with Wu Hai, also received a thorough scolding from Xu Lei.
The bodyguards pushed several of them forward, while Xu Lei walked ahead, still reading the report and speaking quickly. A crowd followed behind him, equally furious and cursing. Now the entire internet knew that someone from their company had been involved in such a scandal; who would dare to give announcements for their own company in the future?
Their star paths were essentially ruined because of these worthless individuals—how could they not be angry?
It was shocking: the greatest betrayal of justice in the workplace turned out to be from the boss!
With all guns blazing, the boss asked, "Who else?"
Today’s trending topics were lively. Xu Lei, as the owner of an entertainment company, had unexpectedly stepped on one of his own company's notorious artists to ignite a firestorm; this was something no one had anticipated, not even himself!
Following closely behind was a wave of wealth and fortune. In this era, it was difficult to maintain a positive image; even doing good deeds could lead to accusations of showboating. Xu Lei's actions had elements of performance as well, but the effect was surprisingly good.
Artists from other companies, even when reported, would often be protected and whitewashed due to their underlying value. The dirty entertainment industry didn’t need white lotus figures; they only needed real money!
Regardless of an artist's works or reputation, at least they hadn’t touched upon the most taboo subjects among the public. Many brand representatives had already sent people to contact Pinnacle Entertainment Company in the afternoon to discuss business deals. This relieved the originally worried small artists in the company while also exciting them; they hoped to land one or two endorsements or appearances.
Exhausted, Xu Lei returned home and collapsed onto the sofa. "Wang Xinlin, pour me a glass of water."
"Oh," said Wang Xinlin, who was watching a variety show. She quickly got up to bring him warm water. "What time is it? Why aren’t you sleeping yet?"
"I can’t sleep."
The young girl glared at Xu Lei angrily. "I really want Ling Ya’s endorsement too! You didn’t even mention it to me."
"You don’t know anything," Xu Lei replied as he lit a cigarette and took slow drags. "Once you release your album and become popular, you won’t have to worry about endorsements. By then, Ling Ya’s endorsement won’t match your status; it will become a burden instead—there’s no need for it!"
"Do you really think I can become popular?"
"Do you really think I run this entertainment company for nothing?" Xu Lei rolled his eyes. "Out of nearly two hundred trainees back then, I picked you and Shao Han at first glance and signed you both. If I hadn’t been waiting for suitable songs, I would have launched you already. Just wait a bit longer."
"Oh," she pouted as she turned off the television and helped the tipsy Xu Lei back to the bedroom. After assisting him with washing up, they embraced each other and fell asleep.
The next morning, when Xu Lei woke up, several younger colleagues were already running laps around the villa area under Xu Li's supervision. One by one, they stretched before heading back inside to wash up and eat breakfast.
