Chapter 330: Chapter 330 Meeting at the Peak_1
Upon hearing this, Bo’s mother suddenly felt a burning sensation at her heart.
Could it be that she had misunderstood all along?
Were her investigation results faulty?
This time, she didn’t need Yingjie to prompt her to take her medicine, she quickly swallowed it down. Then, she picked up her phone to make a call, "Check again for me, find out who Xia Qingtian and the real father of the baby in her belly are."
She had to investigate this matter thoroughly.
The thought of An’an possibly being her biological grandson made her face soften with affection.
...
Xia Qingtian left the task of gathering evidence to convince Bo’s mother to Bo Jingyan, and didn’t concern herself with it anymore.
Because she trusted Bo Jingyan.
What she had to do was honor the bet she made with Bo’s mother, display her abilities as a daughter-in-law, and earn her approval.
The next day, she reluctantly handed An’an over to the nanny. She then immersed herself in her work.
She carpooled with Bo Jingyan to the entertainment company, which was already dwindling closer to oblivion.
The company was edging towards extinction, it had moved away from the opulent Bo Group. Even some new employees didn’t know that the company used to be backed by the Bo Group.
The old staff who knew, most of them had quit. Those who hadn’t, were aimless and unenthusiastic workers, ineligible to attend the company’s annual meeting.
Therefore, besides the general manager, no one knew Xia Qingtian, nor that she was the CEO’s wife, they only saw her as an ordinary person with connections.
Her arrival didn’t cause any ripples.
This suited Xia Qingtian’s intentions.
She intended to keep her identity under wraps anyway while working on turning the company’s losses into profits.
Xia Qingtian spent two days understanding the company’s structure, its most important talent and the works in which they were currently engaged.
After reviewing this, she felt desperate.
She found that the artists in the company, aside from one male and one female, had no work. The best data on the lead actor and actress was that they only played insignificant characters in many different shows, their roles being just a better-paid version of extras.
The rest of the artists were just extras.
They were slightly better off than extras, since they had the company to fall back on.
The company’s financial reports painted a picture of extreme poverty. They were making losses year after year and even had accumulated a substantial amount of bank debt.
If not for the Bo Group’s enormous wealth, this entertainment company might have dragged them down a long time ago.
Xia Qingtian kept taking deep breaths, striving to keep a calm demeanor.
She had already promised Bo’s mother, no matter how hard, she would persevere.
With this mindset, she plucked up courage once again.
As for the company’s financial problems, there was no immediate solution. The most important thing to do now was to push the idle artists into drama sets, they had to be kept occupied.
However, they didn’t have any scripts to work on because of their company’s poor reputation.
Xia Qingtian had no choice but to fend for herself.
She immediately started searching on the Internet, and quickly found a production team that was seeking actors for a TV drama which was based on a hugely popular palace strife novel.
This was it!
Xia Qingtian spent two days cramming the novel.
She had to admit, the novel was fascinating, she was engrossed to the extent that she almost forgot her original motivation for reading it: to find a role for the company’s artists.
After finishing it, she felt the show had the potential to be a massive hit if executed well.
There were a few characters in it that, despite having limited screen time, were extraordinarily intriguing.
The character Xia Qingtian was targeting was an arrogant concubine, blazing hot like a ball of fire. She lived with boldness and died a grand death.
This character had powerful latent heat, if enacted well, it would definitely make a splash.
From the company, Xia Qingtian chose an actress matching this character- Cheng Bingbing.
Cheng Bingbing was an alluring beauty, as charming as a seductive fox spirit. Her striking beauty was quite recognizable.
Unfortunately, the entertainment industry now favored the type of pure and innocent beauty, and her appearance did not have as much mass appeal.
So, she dressed up in an innocent manner, which meant she was trying too hard to be something she was not, thus losing both charm and allure.
Xia Qingtian first helped her shift to a style that suited her, bringing out her beauty and charm to the fullest.
Then, she patiently went over the backstory, experiences, and personality of the concubine with her, ensuring that Bingbing fully understood the character.
Now that everything was ready, all that was missing was opportunity.
On the day of the audition, Xia Qingtian and Cheng Bingbing arrived early at the audition location.
Since Bingbing had the character fully grasped, she portrayed the role perfectly during the audition.
Moreover, her appearance perfectly matched the original character’s, which left the director very satisfied. On the spot, he decided on Bingbing for the role of the concubine, she even signed a contract on the spot, successfully squeezing out another actor who had an in with the production team.
Xia Qingtian was overjoyed.
That evening, as she left the company planning to go home and spend time with An’an, she was intercepted by Bo Jingyan. He told her he knew she had landed the role and wanted to take her out to celebrate.
Subsequently, she was taken to the Sky Restaurant.
This was the tallest building in A City, and the restaurant was on the top floor. Dining here at night provided a view of the brightly lit city beneath, as well as a sky filled with stars.
The two could enjoy their meal while savoring the beautiful view.
To prevent any disruptions, Bo Jingyan had booked the entire restaurant.
Soft and elegant music played in the restaurant, the table was full of the very best dishes prepared by top chefs, and there was a bottle of very expensive red wine.
Xia Qingtian knew that Bo Jingyan was unable to taste any flavors in the food. She felt bad and said, "Actually, even if we are celebrating, we can do it at home. I can cook, we didn’t need to come to a restaurant."
Bo Jingyan shook his head, "This place is different."
"What’s different about it?" Xia Qingtian looked at him curiously.
"This is the tallest building in A City, and I brought you here to tell you how exceptional you are. You’ve just taken over the company and have already landed such a good role for one of the company’s artists,"
Bo Jingyan’s deep gaze fell on her, exuding captivating affect, "I look forward to meeting with you at the pinnacle."
"Meet at the pinnacle?" Xia Qingtian repeated the words to herself.
She then burst into laughter, finding the promise to be extremely romantic. It stirred her emotions deeply.
She truly looked forward to meeting Bo Jingyan at the summit.
Xia Qingtian raised her glass, "Okay, Mr. Bo, you wait for me at the summit. I will work even harder to keep up with you, so I can reach the summit as soon as possible, and you won’t have to wait too long."
