Trillionaire's Slice of Life

July 1st, a new month, a new beginning.

Shi Yuan Entertainment's building, on the top floor of the thirty-sixth level, Qin Zixuan was sitting in the spacious and luxurious CEO's office. In front of her was a man in his early forties, who was competently holding a report and giving a serious briefing.

The entire office spanned one hundred and fifty square meters, with the European-style vintage floor-to-ceiling windows already open. When standing at the windows in her leisure time, one could see the blurry outline of the financial buildings in the distance.

At this moment, Qin Zixuan was leaning back gently in the soft leather chair, a Su-style crystal chandelier hanging high above her head, and to her left, a luxurious bookshelf was piled with ancient English books.

Of course, these books all belonged to Yun Wu, the former president of Shi Yuan Entertainment. Qin Zixuan found them somewhat interesting, so she didn't have them removed.

The middle-aged man in front of her was headhunted from another company for a hefty price and currently served as vice president of Shi Yuan Entertainment. In the company, aside from Qin Zixuan, he held the second-highest position.

As for President Sun Qing, she now held only a title, no longer enjoying the glory of wielding sole authority over the company as she did before.

Since its establishment one month and three days ago, Qin Zixuan had been walking on thin ice every single day.

Although she held a dual master's degree from Harvard University, she had no prior management experience and knew nothing of the entertainment industry. Suddenly taking over a company with a market value of several billion was bound to be chaotic at first.

Because of that gentleman, the company now had a full-scale collaboration with the Zhou family's Tianhua Entertainment, and Shi Yuan Entertainment gradually began to get on track. Even at this point, Qin Zixuan still didn't relax in the slightest.

Shi Yuan Entertainment currently had three top tier artists: Sun Qing, who joined first, and Lin Wanqiu and Wang Tuo, who were later recruited at great expense.

Qin Zixuan had mixed feelings about Sun Qing. In the beginning, she indeed helped her a lot. From the company's development plans to minor company regulations, she gave many valuable suggestions.

However, it was precisely because of her excessive trust in Sun Qing, combined with her influential position in the entertainment industry, that in just over half a month, there were already signs that the company was spiraling out of control.

Sun Qing's risk-averse plans, which didn't align with Mr. Chu's vision, were just one aspect, but after Sun Qing incorporated her own company into Shi Yuan Entertainment, she not only brought her artists to Shi Yuan but also her entire management team.

Thus, in just half a month, sixty percent of Shi Yuan Entertainment's senior management were her people, which resulted in the company effectively becoming hers.

Qin Zixuan wasn't content with being a mere figurehead, but due to her lack of experience in the early stages, coupled with an excessive trust in the other party, that's what led to such an outcome. It was only after Mr. Chu gave her a wake-up call that Qin Zixuan came to a realization.

If things continued as they were, she feared she would soon be ousted.

Naturally, Qin Zixuan would not allow such an event to occur. By spending a fortune to bring over two top-tier superstars, Sun Qing's influence in the company was no longer as prominent as before.

Then, using a series of tactics, she cleared out the management team brought by Sun Qing and also had the board reject her proposed company development plans...

Through a series of moves, Qin Zixuan regained control of Shi Yuan Entertainment. Naturally, Sun Qing's original plan to monopolize power went down the drain.

Now, Sun Qing was just an artist at the company, no longer possessing the authority to make decisions that could determine the company's future. However, Mr. Chu had previously promised that she wouldn't lose a bit of the resources that belonged to her.

"President Qin, Director Wang from Tianhua Entertainment is already waiting. We need to select the lead actress for the promotional short film today. The initial investment in this short film is thirty-five million, so the choice for the lead actress must be made carefully," said the middle-aged man in front of her, closing the report and speaking softly as a nod from Qin Zixuan acknowledged him.

"Let's take a look together," she suggested.

She had only finished dealing with matters at three o'clock in the morning the night before and was feeling somewhat worn out. However, as the president of the company and the backbone of the entire Shi Yuan Entertainment, she could not afford to show any sign of weakness, especially now that the company was at a critical stage of development.

Rising from the soft sofa and straightening her back, the fatigue seemed to dissipate from her body, and Qin Zixuan resumed her powerful female executive demeanor.

Accompanied by her personal secretary and the vice president, Qin Zixuan, dressed in a black business suit, walked with a steady demeanor, radiating a formidable aura.

Along the way, whether ordinary employees or company artists, all who encountered them stopped in their tracks and respectfully watched them pass.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

When they arrived at the meeting room on the twenty-eighth floor using the private elevator and the female secretary pushed open the door, everyone inside the room—comprising three top-tier superstars, a well-known domestic director, and over a dozen company executives—all stood up simultaneously.

"Good to see you, President Qin..."

"Hello, President..."

"President Qin..."

Various respectful greetings rang out as Qin Zixuan nodded slightly and took the main seat in the meeting room. Only after her nod did everyone else calmly sit down.

"President Qin, we've completed the preliminary work for the promotional film, and we've finalized contracts with the special effects company in the U.S., but we still haven't decided on the lead actress. If we can't start shooting soon, the schedule will be compressed, and we're concerned about maintaining quality..."
