This Girl Forced to Become an Entertainment Company Boss

Chapter 123

Due to the trend of Random Entertainment's success with whatever they release, they decided to go all out for their third-anniversary celebration.

"Title: Speculation/I knew there was no poster... Random Entertainment is on vacation."

"It's almost their company's third anniversary, and Random Entertainment has given their employees a week off. Those who can't take the week off now will have to wait until their current work is done, but they must use up their vacation days this year."

"I'm not sure about the other departments, but the art team definitely took the break. They take the most time off, while other departments occasionally work overtime on weekends, but the art team never works overtime on weekends."

"...At least finish the posters before taking a break!"

"I'm so jealous."

Comment section:

"Only three years? It feels like they've dominated most of my fandom life."

"It's really hard to find a company in the industry that offers weekends off, but Random Entertainment actually does. We have a project with them, and once it's their rest time, you really can't get in touch with them. I can't imagine how happy I'd be if I worked there."

"Random Entertainment even prepared gifts for their fans, offering a 35% discount on their July merchandise. Sisters, if you don't rush now, it's really not right [winking and sticking out tongue]"

"Three years and only two groups..."

"Two groups in three years is already fast, isn't it? I was even worried that too many groups would make it hard for them to manage simultaneously."

"Choosing to take a break at this time, I'm speechless. They just left a date yesterday and ran off. I thought there would be materials today, but we have to wait a whole month!"

For Random Entertainment's third-anniversary celebration, many departments took a break, but the Timetrain team was still operating.

However, since they had already taken a break when some of them were in school, they didn't have much to complain about this time.

It was the five of them who had a lot to complain about.

After two months of normal life and daily studies, they were always hungry and ate mostly school food, which wasn't very good, causing their weight to increase slightly.

In addition to practicing dancing, they also had to go to the gym for strength training to shape up before the official MV shoot.

The four members of the girl group also frequently appeared at the gym recently due to concept evaluations.

Whenever they met, the air in the gym would become so tense that it was hard to breathe.

Recalling the company's rules, they didn't dare to communicate with each other, only nodding awkwardly when they met, not even daring to make eye contact.

Especially after a couple of trainees were caught dating underground recently, Liu Jiajia, a department head, directly scolded all the trainees, and the two dating ones were immediately fired, scaring the trainees into spending less time on their phones lately, fearing they might be suspected.

"Why so angry?" Jiang Juyou, although also disapproving of their behavior, knew it couldn't be controlled, so her approach upon discovery was to fire them directly, not getting so angry.

But seeing Liu Jiajia's reaction, it seemed not so good.

Jiang Juyou poured her a glass of ice water, which Liu Jiajia downed in one go, causing a sharp pain in her temple.

She rubbed her temple and frowned, "Nowadays, which kid doesn't date? I'm angry because I'm disappointed."

When she mentioned this, she got even angrier, "Cheng Luo is in the debut group now. He has a good appearance and plays the guitar well. After entering the debut group, they even took him for bone age tests, and he's at least going to grow to 1.85 meters."

"Since he's in the debut group, they thought about tidying up his appearance for future selections, did all kinds of checks, and even got him the most expensive lingual braces—"

The more Liu Jiajia spoke, the angrier she got. She covered the back of her neck and leaned back, "If he hadn't caused all these troubles, he would have had a spot in the debut lineup."

There are many kids who date early nowadays, and it's even more common in the industry, but the core of this matter isn't about dating, it's about not having a clear head.

There's a time and place for everything, why now?

When the company is working hard for his future, he's dating, which is practically making a joke out of the company's efforts.

That's the crux of the matter.

Sitting beside her, Jiang Juyou held her phone and thought about who Cheng Luo was, "Ah... the one you said was the second Pei Luming?"

Liu Jiajia waved her hand, almost sliding off the sofa, with no dignity left, only full of frustration, "Forget it, I was blind back then. Our Pei Luming is so well-behaved, all he thinks about is eating and dancing, and he has no interest in girls or dating, that's the good kid."

Unlike other department heads, Liu Jiajia often interacts with these trainees, seeing them almost every day.

The first thing the trainees do when they arrive at the company is to go upstairs to the New Talent Development Department for morning greetings, hand over their electronic devices, and Liu Jiajia always arrives early to wait for them, confirming their attendance before going downstairs for breakfast.

Cheng Luo was a trainee who joined during the male trainees' competition period, missing the good timing.

But since there were only a few male trainees left in the company at that time, resources were tilted towards him.

At that time, Cheng Luo really was like Pei Luming, his skills growing rapidly, making Liu Jiajia set him as a key training object.

He was also the only one in this debut group who hadn't participated in any shows, not even having performed in the monthly public shows, making him a surprise prepared by the company.

And this surprise, in the end, really "killed" people.

Not only was Liu Jiajia angry, but the staff members responsible for Cheng Luo were also about to vomit blood.

Since trainees weren't under her jurisdiction, she didn't know the details, so Jiang Juyou curiously asked, "How was it discovered?"

Liu Jiajia tilted her head over, "They handed over their phones, but they prepared a spare one for themselves."

"They thought it wouldn't be discovered, but recently, they added more surveillance downstairs, eliminating blind spots, and their true nature was revealed."

"At first, it was just thought they were secretly playing with their phones, but then Xi Xi said, 'What kind of game is so fun that he has to play in a surveillance blind spot,' and that was it, they directly followed the clues and found out."

She added, "The girl has only been in the company for half a month."

"Ah?"

"But they've been together for a long time, they're classmates."

"..."

Liu Jiajia raised her wrist to check the time, the lunch break was almost over, "I won't talk anymore, I'm going downstairs to tighten the skins of those little cats and dogs."

"Bye." Jiang Juyou had also slumped into a heap on the sofa without knowing when.

She sat up again and waved at Liu Jiajia who was leaving, then glanced at the phone beside her seat, lost in thought.

The five members of Timetrain, who had their own practice room, were currently practicing dancing, but whenever it was break time, Pei Luming would open the practice room door and sneakily poke his head out.

Standing in the corridor, you could faintly hear the sound of Department Head Liu scolding people, apparently about the trainees using spare phones.

He pulled his head back and quietly closed the door, squatting at the door and patting his chest, "Luckily, we weren't that strict back then."

They were not only not strict, but practically unmanaged. During the filming of the show, no one mentioned the phone issue, and even carrying the phone around was fine.

Jiang Juyou's management was laissez-faire, relying on their self-discipline, and those who couldn't manage themselves were eliminated.

Pei Luming crawled back and mimicked what he heard outside the door.

"No significant improvement in skills, but the brains are working overtime!"

"Treating Random Entertainment as a popularity check-in spot?"

"Who's been revealing that they've entered Random Entertainment lately? Being a trainee at Random Entertainment makes you so proud? Should I let you break another record and become the fastest eliminated one?"

He mimicked Department Head Liu's tone, hands on his hips, mimicking it vividly, making Gao Xiayu and the others laugh until tears came out.

"What are you guys doing?"

The door suddenly opened, and a voice that made their scalps tingle rang out.

The others quickly got up from the sofa, and Pei Luming, who was facing the door, stumbled as he turned around, ending up on one knee.

Yao Shuo, who was behind him, noticed and quietly added a sound effect, "Long live the emperor."

"Pfft—" Chi Qiao and Ye Xing almost couldn't hold back their laughter upon hearing that.

They both lowered their heads, thinking of sad things to keep themselves from bursting out laughing.

Jiang Juyou walked in and saw them all with their heads down, glancing at the ground as well. Seeing Pei Luming struggling to get up, she frowned and smiled, "What's wrong with you?"

"Hit a nerve..." Pei Luming said before finally managing to stand up.

She left the group and went to sit on the sofa, then said, "You all know what Director Liu has been upset about these days, right?"

"Yes..." The five of them stood in a line, hands behind their backs, facing Jiang Juyou.

She looked up at these tall figures and said, "Remember, your contracts state that you are not allowed to date before the age of twenty. After twenty, you can, but you'll bear the consequences yourself."

"If you get caught, it'll be much more serious for you than for others, because it affects more than just you."

"Think carefully about what you should be doing at what time."

Jiang Juyou came down just to say this. After finishing, she stood up and left, asking before she went, "Pei Luming, how much weight have you lost recently?"

"Just one percent left!" Pei Luming quickly replied.

"Then stop drinking water starting tonight. The album cover shoot starts tomorrow, so be careful."

Aliali: 673ebb7bc4f3f33ac4eea64c"Understood!"

After that, Jiang Juyou left like an old man taking a stroll, hands behind her back.

As soon as she closed the door to their practice room, Jiang Juyou received a message.

"Mu Mu: Boss, Bowen Client has invited our artists to a ceremony and wants you to attend as well."

"Mu Mu: Are you going?"

Jiang Juyou had received many such invitations, but she had only attended one, declining the rest.

But this time—

"Jiang Juyou: I'll go."

Little assistant: Yay! Time to flip some tables!
