Chapter 243 Cui Ying
"What's wrong?" Shen Chaohuai frowned.
"One of our company's directors is back..."
Shen Chaohuai suddenly understood something: "Cui Ying, the person who once had an artist contract with the Shen Group."
“I don’t know the contents of the contract they signed, and I still haven’t been able to find it,” Su Qi said, shrugging.
Su Qi planned to take a taxi, but Shen Chaohuai's Adam's apple bobbed slightly: "I'll give you a ride. To the company?"
"Hmm." Su Qi didn't refuse, but got into his car and fastened her seatbelt without any hesitation: "Other people's cars just don't feel the same."
As Shen Chaohuai started the car, he raised an eyebrow at her: "Why don't you buy a new car since yours is broken?"
Su Qi deliberately said, "I'm waiting for someone else to bring it to me..."
The car slowly drove along the ring road. Shen Chaohuai understood what she meant and retorted, "Oh, you want me to give you a ride?"
Su Qi shamelessly replied, "Yes."
Shen Chaohuai blinked and said, trying to cover up his embarrassment, "Giving away a house and a car, you really don't feel embarrassed at all."
"I won't give it to you, it's not like you're desperate for money..."
Su Qi smiled and said, "Really? You'll regret it."
She deliberately called Li Yancheng in front of him: "Brother Cheng, it's my birthday soon, what are you planning to give me?"
Su Qi turned on the speakerphone.
Li Yancheng thought for a moment and said, "It's been a long time since you've properly celebrated your birthday. You've been busy with work these past two years, so you really need to take a good rest."
"Okay, what do you want?"
Su Qi said loudly, "I want the latest Maybach."
The surrounding air fell silent.
Shen Chaohuai swallowed hard and muttered under his breath, "That's really outrageous..."
Li Yancheng only took a moment to react: "Although I don't understand why you want this kind of car, Maybach is quite high-profile. Fine, since you want it, I'll call the car dealer and have them arrange a limited edition one to be delivered to your door on your birthday."
After hearing this, Shen Chaohuai honked the car horn lightly. Li Yancheng paused and asked, "Who are you with?"
"It's nothing, just someone who's not very important," she replied deliberately.
Not important? Shen Chaohuai's eyes widened suddenly.
He gripped the steering wheel tightly with one hand, snatched the phone with the other, and said to Li Yancheng, "You dare to buy it for her and see what happens!"
With a "click," the phone was disconnected.
Su Qi chuckled to himself, and Shen Chaohuai knew he had been tricked.
What else could he do but resign himself to her fate: "I'll make arrangements for you, don't look for anyone else."
Su Qi asked, "Why?"
Shen Chaohuai gritted his teeth: "It's only right that you come to me... What's the point of coming to someone else..."
Su Qi turned her head away and chuckled, but what she was thinking was—
What happened to Executive Officer Fu? It's quite interesting.
This guy used to be cold and aloof, but now he's all obsequious to her.
She now liked this major threat even more: "Not bad, I like it."
Shen Chaohuai's face flushed slightly. A few seconds later, his assistant called.
"Mr. Shen, the script for the spy film you invested in has already cast actors. Would you like to play the male lead yourself or is the role being cast by a third party?"
Su Qi leaned closer to listen.
"Didn't you select anyone?" Shen Chaohuai asked.
The assistant replied, "We selected a few, but the director said they didn't quite meet his requirements. We originally wanted to invite you to act, but we were afraid you wouldn't agree."
"After all, investing in the project and vying for the male lead role is bound to be criticized."
Shen Chaohuai thought for a moment: "Spy movies, upon closer inspection, I am indeed more suited to them."
"Okay, I agree to act in it."
After hanging up the phone, Su Qi simply smiled.
"why are you laughing?"
"I'm mocking you. You seem to have a pretty clear understanding of your own position..."
Shen Chaohuai blinked, trying to cover it up, and said, "I only became an actor halfway through my career because of you. My acting skills aren't great, and it's not easy for me to find roles that suit me, so I won't take on any difficult ones..."
Su Qi covered her mouth and looked at the building in front of her: "We've arrived."
She got up and got out of the car, and Shen Chaohuai asked again, "Do you need me to come with you?"
Su Qi stopped in her tracks, suddenly realizing that Cui Ying might not know about the changes within the Shen family, nor might she know that she and Shen Chaohuai were on the same side.
If we bring Shen Chaohuai up with us, there should be a good show to watch.
Su Qi slightly raised her lips: "Okay."
Upon entering the company, Su Qi felt the atmosphere was very oppressive. Everyone was busy with their own things and dared not communicate privately.
It turns out that when Cui Ying wasn't around, everyone would gossip after finishing their own tasks, and only occasionally would they work overtime if they hadn't finished their work.
but now……
After giving her instructions, Cui Ying said, "While I was away, everyone became lax. Tonight, you'll all be working overtime until 10 p.m. Think carefully about what you came to this company for."
Someone on Su Qi's PR team muttered under their breath, "Of course, it's about making money..."
Cui Ying turned her head: "You bastard!"
Su Qi then noticed that Cui Ying's face was covered in wrinkles, and her nasolabial folds were so deep they were almost frightening. In particular, when Cui Ying raised her eyebrows, her face was pointed and monkey-like, and her appearance alone made people feel uncomfortable.
"get out!"
Su Qi picked up her bag and quickly came out to help ease the tension: "Chairman Cui, the people below are ignorant. There's no need to be so concerned. Anyway, if their work performance is not good, they can just be laid off. It's not a big deal."
Cui Ying turned her head and saw Su Qi's nonchalant attitude. She crossed her arms and glared at him angrily, saying, "Who do you think you are?! Trying to put on airs with me?!"
Su Qi was stunned. She didn't expect Cui Ying to yell at her. After all, she had brought a lot of revenue to the company and could be said to have supported the entire company on her own. Why was Cui Ying yelling at her so loudly?
"Chairman Cui, you must know very well how the company has made its profits over the past two years. With my current abilities, if I were to leave the company, wouldn't Tianhai lose its support?"
Cui Ying sneered, "You certainly know how to think."
Looking at Shen Chaohuai beside her, Cui Ying assumed that the big investor was on her side and said directly, "I just signed a new artist. Perfect timing, I heard you're signing a spy film. Could you help mentor the newcomer?"
Shen Chaohuai paused, and Su Qi also looked at Shen Chaohuai at the same time, not expecting that he could recruit new people.
Lynn was also helpless, as she couldn't get Su Qi to sign the contract before Cui Ying could.
"Lynn, give the contract to Su Qi. I'll have her contact you about that new artist later."
Lynn nodded and took out the contract from the folder and gave it to Su Qi.
Shen Chaohuai's throat moved slightly, and he gestured to Su Qi to pay attention to the contents of the contract.
She found no problems with the contract and was prepared to agree.
Since we don't know Cui Ying's background or whether the original owner had any unequal treaties with her, we should go along with Cui Ying for now and deal with the issues step by step later.
The contract only stipulated that Tianhai would receive payment. Now that Cui Ying was back, Lynn could no longer help Su Qi falsify records to cover for him.
After she signed the document, Cui Ying's expression improved considerably. She looked at Shen Chaohuai and said, "Mr. Shen, it's been a long time. I heard that you are now in charge of the Shen Group?"
Cui Ying's obsequious manner toward Shen Chaohuai made Su Qi feel extremely uncomfortable.
However, Shen Chaohuai didn't say anything, but just took the contract that Su Qi had just signed: "Perfect timing, I'm the male lead in this drama, and I just signed the contract too. I'll help you send it to the film set."
