Yang Sheng quickly handed the document Qi Lei threw onto the table to the higher-ups. Their faces turned pale as they looked at it, and they had nothing to say about it.
“I’m doing this for the company’s benefit. I don’t feel confident giving you guys the funds to do the advertising. Furthermore, do any of you think that you have more popularity than Yueying? Qi Kai has amassed so many movie rights, yet Yueying is the one who’s shining. I don’t see all of you accomplishing anything in both the production of drama series and movies.”
Qi Lei put on a wicked smile as he observed their reactions. Even Gu Lingsha and Qi Qiming frowned when they looked at the document.
“It’s not that I don’t believe what Qi Kai can do, but since Yueying is trending at the moment, why don’t we use it to advertise South River Project No. 2? It’d take an idiot not to choose the method that uses less resources and receives more returns.” Qi Lei then leaned back against his chair as he glanced at everyone.
People started whispering as Xi Xinyi glanced at Qi Lei before starting a discussion with her uncle, Yue Hai.
“Uncle, why is Qi Lei helping us?” Xi Xinyi was confused by Qi Lei’s behaviour.
Yue Hai stared at Qi Lei for a while, then his eyes darkened. He could not figure out Qi Lei’s intentions as well, but he did know that the relationship between Qi Qiming and Qi Lei had worsened ever since Wang Qin’s death, so Qi Lei might be trying to act against Qi Qiming just to annoy him.
However, if Qi Lei was just trying to be a nuisance, these analysis reports were way too detailed. They did not seem like they were prepared in the spur of the moment. No matter what, Qi Lei’s initiative meant zero harm to Yueying.
Yue Hai had actually hinted to Qi Qiming before to let Xi Xinyi handle the advertising, but Qi Qiming rejected him right away, making him agitated. He could sense that Qi Qiming was ignoring him ever since Wang Qin passed away.
“I don’t know as well, but no matter what, it’s a good thing for us. Let’s wait and see what they’ll say. We’ll try to fight for it if needed!” Yue Hai gave Xi Xinyi some comfort, and she nodded at ease, but for some reason, the document Mu Yuchen gave her came into her mind!
How could Mu Yuchen be so sure that Xi Xinyi would be able to handle this advertising project? He even gave Gu Lingsha’s analysis report to her!
Xi Xinyi felt goosebumps travel all over her. Mu Yuchen was really incredible!
At the same time, Gu Lingsha felt very doubtful too! She had no idea what Qi Lei was planning, so she then looked at Qi Qiming and noticed he was giving the document a long, hard look with a strained expression.
“Uncle Qi, what is Lei thinking?” Gu Lingsha lowered her voice and asked Qi Qiming who raised his head and glanced at Qi Lei, seeming very calm and collected.
Moments later, Qi Qiming said, “He’s trying to act against me, and I can’t deny that what he said are facts. He’s been following up with Yueying all along. Aunt Wang put in a lot of resources there as well, so I doubt he came up with this proposal himself. It must’ve been Wang Qin’s subordinate whom Aunt Wang brought over from the Wang family.”
Originally, Qi Kai was called Qi Corporation but turned into Qi Kai after it was combined together with Wang Qin’s Lei Kai. Lei Kai was the Wang family’s property. The elites from Lei Kai followed Wang Qin and worked under Qi Kai, and they were part of the reason why Qi Qiming was wary of her.
Therefore, it was normal for Qi Qiming to think so.
“What should we do then? Are we really going to let Xi Xinyi handle this?” Gu Lingsha felt uneasy.
“It might not be a bad thing to let her handle it. I suppose you don’t really know about her yet. She’s an important person to the Yue family. Not only does she produce great results, but most importantly, she’s Xi Xiaye’s sister. However, the two of them don’t get along with each other, so it could be a brilliant idea to use her.”
Qi Lei was getting impatient as the discussions were still ongoing. He stole a look at his watch and threw his pen onto the table. “I’ll leave you guys to discuss it then. Let me know once you’ve reached the conclusion. It’s noon now and my work time is over. Bye!”
As he was about to leave, Qi Qiming yelled at him, “You bastard! Stop right there! Who do you think you are?” He could barely catch his breath. He was sure that if something went wrong in his body, it must be because of his son!
Qi Lei stopped and turned when he heard Qi Qiming’s yell. Qi Qiming started to speak, “Do as he said then. Let Manager Xi handle the advertising. Manager Wang and Manager Kang, assist Manager Xi on this matter. Report to me if there are any issues. Understand?”
“Yes, CEO Qi!”
With the matter decided, the meeting was adjourned afterward.
Hastily, Qi Lei walked toward the door before Qi Qiming declared the meeting adjourned. Then, Yang Sheng swiftly tidied up the table and followed behind him.
Thud!
The loud sound of the door closing felt really heavy to Qi Qiming. He was not sure why he felt like it was a bad omen.
