Chapter 65 - 63: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
Tencent Building, 22nd Floor
Yang Xiaoyue arrived here under the guidance of a secretary.
Due to her insufficient status, she did not have the authority to enter this floor.
"Mr. Wan, hello." Yang Xiaoyue showed great respect toward the man in front of her, whose appearance was ordinary but exuded an air of efficiency from head to toe.
This man was the chief executive officer responsible for the entertainment sector within the "Tencent Empire," and was also the true planner behind this program.
"Xiaoyue, please have a seat." Wan Kai offered a restrained yet polite smile. Being just over forty and in charge of a department with an annual investment of billions, he naturally carried a sense of pride.
The planning of this girl group selection program was actually an important step in his strategy to establish a "pan-entertainment ecosystem" centered around intellectual property (IP).
The core of the entertainment industry lies in "celebrities"—once you control the stars, you can dominate film, variety shows, and related industries. This program was an experiment in manufacturing celebrities on a production line.
"Mr. Wan, all other aspects of the project have been finalized. What I lack on my end now are qualified trainees," Yang Xiaoyue said with a smile.
"You still haven’t found the trainees you need? Over the past month, your team has seen tens of thousands of people," Wan Kai frowned.
"We’ve seen plenty of people, but their skills fall short. So, I still prefer sourcing from professional schools," Yang Xiaoyue said, clearly presenting a different stance from what she had shared during official meetings.
