My capital is quite large.

Chapter 214 Twin Flowers

Li Feng took the file folder and casually pulled out the documents inside.

When he saw the two ID photos in the upper right corner of the resume, his fingers paused slightly as he turned the page.

He was naturally familiar with these two faces.

Zhang Yuxi, Zhang Tianai.

In her past life, she was the ex-girlfriend of the eldest son of the Wang family, a social media influencer who made a name for herself in the Chinese entertainment industry with her exquisite, mixed-race-looking face.

The other one became a sensation with the daring web series "Go Princess Go," gaining widespread recognition for her stunning beauty and commanding presence.

Li Feng glanced at Zhang Xinyu, who was standing beside him nervously observing his expression, and understood the chief secretary's little scheme.

Using newcomers as "stand-ins" to solidify their position?

"This woman is quite shrewd," Li Feng chuckled to himself.

He didn't mind Zhang Xinyu's harmless little trick.

As long as he can manage his subordinates well, it doesn't matter to him who his secretary is.

"This one will do."

Li Feng casually pointed to Zhang Yuxi's photo, "She looks a little more clever."

……

In fact, Zhang Xinyu had already planted these two hidden seeds more than three years ago.

Back then, she was just a junior secretary whose position was not yet secure.

During an inspection of the film and television department, I happened to see these two unknown actors auditioning for minor roles.

Zhang Xinyu immediately saw the potential in the two of them. More importantly, these two had no background or support, like two pitiful stray cats.

Zhang Xinyu had an idea.

She knew all too well that the number of women around her boss would only increase, and that one day she would face the crisis of having to take maternity leave.

She needs to cultivate "her own people" to take over!

So, she used her privileges as the head housekeeper to quietly intercept Zhang Yuxi and Zhang Tianai's files. Instead of letting them enter Haofeng's artist selection system, she secretly "kept" them with high salaries!

After confirming that the two women had clean backgrounds, Zhang Xinyu not only paid out of her own pocket to rent high-end apartments for them near the Jinling headquarters over the past three years, but also paid for them to study administration, business etiquette, and some flattery techniques.

Her only miscalculation was that she had to endure such a long time before she conceived the dragon's child!

However, the three years of being "shelved" actually smoothed out the two girls' rough edges.

As Haofeng Group grew larger and larger, and seeing those popular actresses dominating the trending topics, these two girls, who could only study in the shadows with high salaries, had long been yearning to rise to the top!

Even if they endured another three years, they would never dare to harbor the slightest thought of betrayal.

Because they know that without Zhang Xinyu, they are nothing in this industry.

……

In Jinling, in a high-end apartment not far from Haofeng's headquarters.

Zhang Yuxi and Zhang Tianai were wearing pajamas and sitting on the sofa watching TV, looking a little bored.

"Sister Tian'ai, when are you finally going to arrange some work for us?"

Zhang Yuxi pouted, her tone tinged with resentment and anxiety, "We've been studying administrative management and wine tasting for three years already, and if we keep going, I'll be a lobby manager by now! Look at Zhao Liying on TV, she used to be just an extra, and now she's so famous! When will we ever get our turn...?"

Zhang Tianai sighed, her heart filled with sorrow.

When Zhang Xinyu took a liking to her, she thought she had finally made it big, but she ended up being kept in this apartment as a "backup secretary" for three years.

How many years does a woman's youth last?

"Don't worry, since Sister Xinyu has put so much effort into training us, she must have a reason." Zhang Tianai comforted Zhang Yuxi, but she was also comforting herself.

Just then, the cell phone on the coffee table suddenly rang.

When they saw that the caller ID showed "Sister Xinyu", they were both startled and quickly sat up straight.

Zhang Tianai pressed the answer button: "Hello, Sister Xinyu..."

"Listen." Zhang Xinyu's voice on the other end of the phone had a condescending tone.

"The boss has already looked at your files."

"Yu Xi, starting tomorrow, you will be reporting to the president's office at headquarters."

"Tian'ai, I'll arrange a lead role in a web series for you as compensation. You should also get ready to join the production."

Zhang Yuxi was so excited she almost jumped up, covering her mouth and nodding frantically, "Thank you, Sister Xinyu! Thank you, boss! I'll definitely work hard!"

Zhang Tianai, on the other hand, felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, her face turning deathly pale.

"Sister Xinyu..." Zhang Tianai's voice trembled, her eyes filled with resentment, "I...I studied administration for three years, I can serve the boss well! I can wait! Please give me another chance, okay?"

She knew all too well that in the Haofeng Empire, there was a world of difference between filming a web series as the female lead and staying by the boss's side as his personal secretary!

One is an actor working for someone else, and the other is a half-master who holds the power of life and death!

"Tian'ai, accept your fate."

Zhang Xinyu's tone was completely calm. "I told you all before that this was a game of choosing one of two options."

"A bet's a bet. Giving you the lead role is the best I could get for you, don't be ungrateful."

"Beep..." The phone was abruptly disconnected.

The apartment fell into dead silence.

Zhang Tianai's eyes were red, and tears involuntarily fell down.

Three years of youth, lost to a girl younger than myself.

Looking at Zhang Tianai crying, Zhang Yuxi also felt a pang of sadness.

We've lived and eaten together for three years, so there's bound to be some bond between us.

She walked over and gently hugged Zhang Tian'ai. Not knowing how to comfort her, she could only whisper, "Sister Tian'ai, don't cry... Once I've become more familiar with the boss, I'll definitely put in a good word for you and get him to invest in a few big-budget movies for you, and make you a Best Actress, okay?"

Zhang Tianai laughed through her tears and wiped them away.

She knew it was nothing more than the victor's pity.

In this gamble of fame and fortune, if you lose, you lose.

……

at the same time.

Staples Center, Los Angeles, USA.

The final battle of the S3 World Championship came to a close amidst the fervent cheers of millions of players.

3 is better than 0!

SKT, the South Korean team, swept Royal Club, the team representing the LPL, in a clean sweep!

This loss was like a knife to the heart of LPL fans!

During the commentary and live chat recaps of the match, countless "what ifs" and "feelings of injustice" filled the internet.

"If Royal Club had banned Renekton, that would have been great! If Shenchao had gotten Renekton, which he's best at, the top lane wouldn't have collapsed so quickly!"

"If White dares to pick Akali and try to take on Faker's Zed, maybe there's still a glimmer of hope for the mid lane!"

But there are no "what ifs" in competitive sports.

In this highly anticipated final, what made domestic fans feel the most hopeless was Uzi, who was praised to the skies before the match and was known as the "world's number one ADC"!

During the laning phase, he was thoroughly outplayed by SKT's ADC player Piglet, getting crushed in three consecutive games!

In the Royal Club system, which revolves around the "four-protect-one" strategy, when the best-protected "1" is destroyed, the team is destined to lose all hope of winning.

The arrival of Faker, the "Demon King," heralded the dominance of Korean esports in the League of Legends game.

LPL, utterly defeated!
