Chapter 244 New CEO
At Star Castle Entertainment,
The employees working in the company were all sitting around the conference table. They were all tensed and utterly silence, so silence that the ticking of the clock was the only thing that could be heard inside.
Everyone was still shocked. How could they even react about this? They went to work today and this beautiful Devil Prince was the one who welcomed them! They didn"t even receive any notification from their boss about this man"s presence! How the h.e.l.l did he even end up here?
Xiaolei"s staffs were aware about the name Yu Chen. Even though they didn"t know his face, that name was well known to everyone. They knew that he was the infamous tyrant king of a huge empire and that he was the one backing Star Castle since its launch four months ago.
The staffs were utterly shocked and scared. His name was already quite scary for them so how could they stay calm with him right before their face now? No matter how beautiful he was, they couldn"t even dare to look at him!
"M-mr. Yu, the boys are here." One of the managers entered the room and Yu Chen lifted his face. His eyes were focused on the door.
The first to enter was Lu Xiaotian, the leader of the group. He was still wearing pajamas and his hair was a mess. The others that followed were the same, they were all still dressed in their sleeping wear. They all looked like they were still half asleep as they stood there. Some yawning and some scratching their hair.
"I-I"m sorry Mr. Yu, the boys practiced until past midnight last night, that"s why they couldn"t wake up early today." the manager added hesitantly as he glanced at the man sitting on the main seat.
"Big bro, what"s going on?" Lu Xiaotian was the first to ask. He was finally fully awake as he asked the manager beside him.
The manager nervously looked at him and signaled him to look at the front.
Luo Xiaotian creased his brows but the moment he looked and saw the man sitting there, his eyes widened. The rest of the boys also looked towards the main seat and they all felt like a cold water was poured all over them.
They knew who he was because their big sister had introduced him to them before. And they were also aware who he was now. But what was this man doing here?
"G-good morning Mr. Yu." Lu Xiaotian greeted and the rest also followed suit. They were obviously tensed and confused as to why this person was sitting on their big sister"s seat.
"Good morning, have a seat." Yu Chen"s deep voice echoed inside the room and the boys looked at each other before they hastily took their seat. "I"d like all of you to watch this." He added and he immediately signaled Gu Wei to play a video.
Once the video was played, everyone was speechless and utterly shocked. Their lady boss was the one on the screen and she was telling them that their new CEO was this person here and that he will take over Star Castle for a month. Luo Xiaolei explained herself to them and apologized for not being able to tell them about this beforehand. She also ended her statement telling them all not to get scared of Yu Chen.
When the video ended, n.o.body spoke.
Miss Luo, how could you do this to us?! How could you abandon us just like that and even gave us a h.e.l.la beautiful but h.e.l.la scary man as our new boss?! This man was an Empire"s ex-CEO for goodness sake!! Wasn"t he supposed to be just a sponsor?
Yu Chen was the last person they would even think about to be their new CEO. Even the boys are stunned to their core they couldn"t even react.
"Just as she said, nothing will change. I"ll only be here for a month so you all don"t have anything to worry about." Yu Chen was doing his best. He could see that they were all tense. If they were his employees in Yu Empire, he wouldn"t even care if they trembled or pa.s.s out before him, but these people before him were his Xiaolei"s beloved staffs and beloved babies. What would he do if they resign or something because of their fear of him? He needed to be careful.
"What"s the boy"s schedule for today?" he asked, trying to be casual as much as he could.
"Uhm… they"re going to rehea.r.s.e in MusicHaven for their comeback stage this afternoon. We decided that they will rest this morning."
Yu Chen simply nodded and after some more questions and answers, he abruptly ended the meeting and told the boys to go back in their rooms and rest.
Everyone was of course surprised that he ended the meeting so fast but they were all silently thankful that he did. It was not easy to be with him inside a single room! And his body guards were also overwhelming!
Yu Chen exchanged some words with Xiaolei"s a.s.sistants in the CEO"s office and after they all give him the things he wanted to see, he also let them leave.
"How"s my performance?" Yu Chen asked his men once the door was closed and Gu Wei was the first to give him a thumbs up.
"You"re doing great boss, although the employees here are quite scaredy cats. They"re still amazingly tense. But oh well, they"ll get used to your presence soon so don"t sweat it boss." He said and Yu Chen looked proud with himself.
He then went through the papers that the a.s.sistants brought to him and after just a couple of hours, he called the staffs again. Yu Chen spoke with them about his plan for the company especially regarding the promotion of the boys in their current comeback.
What he told them was almost outrageously too ambitious but the one talking was the one and only Yu Chen! How could they even doubt such a great businessman"s plan and strategy?! They could already foresee that what was coming ahead of them was huge!!
The employees left the room with eyes filled with motivation. They were fired up and they were oozing with confidence.
"Haha, that was easy. Their admiration of your skills now overshadowed their fear," Gu Wei muttered, grinning wide but Yu Chen was still unsatisfied about something.
"My wife told me to support the boys emotionally as well… tell me Gu Wei, what"s the best way to show emotional support?"
"Hmm… since they"re young idols and this will be their first comeback… hmm… aha! Boss! Listen to me!"
