Chapter 5 - About President Lu Xun

Special Assistant Bei Yuan found that working under President Lu Xun was too stressful.

However, the reason why he felt this way might be different than what others would think.

Five years ago, he had just graduated college when he decided to try his luck and applied to work for this newly established company. He did not think that he would be accepted and would be assigned as the President's Special Assistant.

He thought that he was scammed until he met President Lu Xun face to face and found out that it was a legit job offer. With the amount of salary he was going to receive, of course, Bei Yuan would not reject that offer.

After working for President Lu Xun for half a year, Bei Yuan finally found out how stressful it was to work for this person.

It was not the workload that made him stress.

It was also not because of the President's temperament.

Working for President Lu Xun… How should he put it?

President Lu Xun was not like the usual President or CEO that he often heard about in a novel. That man was not a money-making maniac who would spend most of his time in his office.

His boss was too laid back. He was loaded with money, but he did not seem to care about losing them.

Whenever President Lu Xun decided to invest in a project, it was Bei Yuan who would be anxious. There are times when President Lu Xun merely glanced at a proposal before he decided to invest in the project.

The man was also someone who did not take his work seriously.

At one point, Bei Yuan wondered if everyone with money would behave like President Lu Xun. Of course, none of them would have this peculiar behavior.

Later, when Bei Yuan found out about his boss's background, he concluded that he could not understand his boss.

Special Assistant Bei Yuan heard that President Lu Xun came from a middle-class family. His family moved to C Country in the hope of a better life. During his university years, President Lu Xun had worked on an app with a friend and made a lot of money.

However, something happened and his partnership with his friend failed. In the end, he sold that app to another company before the profit was divided between him and his friend.

Using that money from selling that app, President Lu Xun started up NEXT Group in Capital City.

This might sound a little ridiculous, but after he saw the way his boss spent his money, Bei Yuan was convinced that his boss was actually looking forward to losing his money instead.

However, each time he threw away his money on an investment, the money he got would double or triple instead.

It was no doubt that President Lu Xun certainly had very incredible luck in investment and money.

At this time, Special Assistant Bei Yuan was sitting behind his desk as he goes through the documents that the PR team had prepared earlier. Once he was satisfied with the documents, Bei Yuan took a deep breath and clicked the send button.

Once the email passed through, Bei Yuan rubbed his neck as he tried to give himself a pep talk and readied himself for Feng Miao Miao and her father's counterattack.

In the next few minutes, the news and rumor about his boss should disappear from the internet.

However, now that he had released the evidence that proved that his boss and Feng Miao Miao's meeting was accidental and it was nothing like how the actress had described, the netizen would soon scold her.

With the actress's identity, Bei Yuan was expecting that the woman and his father would come forward to cause trouble for his boss.

Just the thought of what will happen next made Special Assistant Bei Yuan grew anxious.

The phone on his desk rang and Bei Yuan received the summon to enter the President's room. After he printed out the report, Bei Yuan took a deep breath and entered the President's room.

Lu Xun looked up when he heard a movement from the door. He saw that it was his assistant and waved for him to come closer.

"President Lu," Bei Yuan called. His grip on the report tightened. "Regarding Actress Feng Miao Miao… what do you plan to do next?"

"What about Actress Feng Miao Miao?" There was a deep frown on his face as he tried to think of that name.

It took him a few seconds to recall who that person was. Lu Xun seemed to recall that early in the morning, his silly assistant had stopped him at the entrance to discuss a trending topic.

"Let's not talk about that actress," Lu Xun said. "Just think of something when they make their move."

Assistant Bei Yuan's knee felt a little weak upon hearing the answer. Wouldn't anyone start to start to prepare for the worst?

Lu Xun grabbed a document on his desk and pushed it over. "I called you over for this... the new studio that will start its operation next year. I have received the list of shows that they're going to do. Help me to look at them and tell me which one you like best."

Bei Yuan was startled upon hearing his boss's words. For a few seconds, he was worried that perhaps, he had misheard his boss's instruction. He glanced at the document on the table and was convinced that he did not mishear anything.

"President Lu, you want me to choose a suitable TV program?"

Lu Xun nodded.

Bei Yuan let out a gasp.

President Lu Xun… shouldn't you let a producer or someone else choose? Why are you putting this heavy burden on me? What if the show that I pick flopped instead?

Of course, Special Assistant Bei Yuan did not dare to speak out loud.

"And another thing." Lu Xun snapped his fingers. "About that fashion show this Friday… Help me to get three more seats. I have a few friends who are going to attend this event." He watched the assistant nodded and continued.. "Just let the management save those seats under President Zhang's name."
