Chapter 1390: Becoming Famous
Chapter 1390: Becoming Famous
At that time, the board of directors all said not to hire Yang Meili, but Yu Hao insisted against everyone’s objections to use Yang Meili as their endorser. Not only did Yang Meili come to the company for endorsement, but she also constantly acted like a diva, making everyone particularly displeased. However, Yu Hao still insisted, asking everyone to cooperate with Yang Meili to ensure the endorsement was well-promoted.
Moreover, at that time everyone cooperated with Yang Meili, and even had to endure being scolded. Thinking back, it was practically a hellish life.
But now this assistant couldn’t say it outright. If he really said it directly, wouldn’t that be slapping the boss in the face? If he slapped the boss in the face, then he would definitely lose his job today.
So at this moment, the assistant could only stand there silently, looking down at his toes, feeling that it was like being in purgatory.
"I really didn’t expect that guy to dare to screw me over, turning our anime into this. Who said Meili from Qinyang originally? Now that the anime has become like this, whoever said it should take responsibility. You may leave; I’ll think of a way. I refuse to believe that our anime, clearly better made, wouldn’t have a market."
Upon hearing this sentence, the assistant was speechless. Wasn’t it the boss who insisted against everyone’s objections to hire Yang Meili?
But now why does the boss refuse to admit it and try to push everything onto others? However, the assistant didn’t dare to speak, so he could only shake his head and walk out.
At this point, Yu Hao naturally knew that these things were his doing, but he absolutely couldn’t admit it. After all, his father had already taken action. If he didn’t pay attention, he might lose everything.
"Since all this is because of Yang Meili, why not just ruin her reputation? Let her take all the blame. Maybe that way we can get through this crisis. The most important thing now is to get through this period. Once the anime is released, I refuse to believe the threat will continue."
At this moment, Yu Hao seemed to have gone mad, betting everything on the anime. But thinking about it now, the game is more or less ready. The combination of anime and games will definitely surprise everyone. Meanwhile, Xiao Group’s game hasn’t been released yet.
Xu Ke just got off work when he saw the news brought by Secretary Zhou. Unexpectedly, the Yu Group had also made an anime. They didn’t deliberately suppress it; they merely promoted their own anime appropriately. Unexpectedly, Yu Group suffered such a blow. Well, after all, in recent years, domestic anime and games haven’t been very prosperous, so when they appear, everyone wants to see what they’re like.
It’s inevitable that comparisons will arise, especially since the anime from both companies came out almost one after the other, and they’re of the same type, making people more prone to comparisons.
At this moment, Secretary Zhou felt particularly pleased. Never expected that one day, Xiao Group’s branch could stand above Yu Group. Everyone knows how arrogant Yu Group has been, right? In previous years, Yu Group didn’t even take us seriously.
Yu Hao, at that time, always tried to outshine Xiao Group in social engagements. But now the strength has proved that Yu Hao didn’t have any capability then, yet he kept showing off. Isn’t that just empty boasting?
"President, should we launch one last strike at this time? As long as we promote our anime as superior to Yu Group’s, it will definitely become even more popular."
This method suggested by Secretary Zhou is frequently used in the industry. However, Xu Ke quickly rejected it. Although they considered it the most proud and powerful counterattack, it’s not appropriate. Really pushing Yu Hao to desperation might lead to drastic actions, and neither party would benefit.
Thus, Xu Ke wasn’t in a hurry to promote his company’s anime. Since it already gained a reputation and received unanimous praise, there’s no need for such tactics. If they continued, it might be redundant and would attract negative reviews.
"Alright, our anime is already doing well. There’s no need for aggressive promotion, and we definitely shouldn’t engage in suppressing competitors to rise above them. That’s not how things work in this industry."
Upon hearing Xu Ke’s words, Secretary Zhou dared not bring up the idea again, leaving the publicity department to focus on proper promotions without concerning themselves with Yu Group’s matters.
Naturally, Xiao Keyi also received this news. She hadn’t expected that after finding Xu Ke, she hadn’t contributed much to the company. Yet, in a short time, Xu Ke had taken the company to such heights, beyond her expectations. Even her grandfather would be amazed.
A happy smile crept up her mouth; luckily, this man belonged to her. Otherwise, he might have been a formidable adversary.
Just as she thought this, she heard the door open, and Xiao Zhen stormed in angrily. Seeing his daughter smiling foolishly, Xiao Zhen realized she already knew the news. Looking at the newspapers on the table, he was too mad to speak and immediately threw the newspaper into the trash bin.
"I never expected that thief to dare to steal our achievements, and now he wants to announce our achievements to the public! Isn’t he ignoring us? Moreover, daughter, he’s simply taking your achievements! I can’t stand it anymore. Aren’t you going to kick him out of the company quickly? If this continues, our headquarters may be overshadowed by the branch."
Xiao Zhen was extremely angry. Early in the morning, all those shareholders began praising the branch, and some even wanted to place people in it. How could Xiao Zhen allow someone he least favored to be stronger than him? So, after the meeting, he stormed directly into his daughter’s office.
Maybe others couldn’t do anything about Xu Ke now, but as long as his daughter stepped in, even the old man would have to yield, right? So, Xiao Zhen had a bright idea. But he never expected that Xiao Keyi, at this moment, would pick up the newspaper from the trash bin without disdain.
Xiao Zhen was stunned. His daughter, whom he had always pampered as a princess, was now picking things out of the trash bin! Was she still the spoiled daughter he raised? For a moment, even Xiao Zhen didn’t dare to speak.
Xiao Keyi smoothed the newspaper and placed it on the table. Seeing that the newspaper was untouched, she smiled gently, leaving Xiao Zhen dumbfounded. Was his daughter truly infatuated with that man? If that’s the case, what could he do?
"What exactly are you doing? Do you know who he is?"
