Mu Yuchen glanced over at the photos Qi Lei left on the table as he nodded. “This is all the information I could get about him for the past few years. There’s nothing too specific due to Qi Qiming’s anti-spy measures.”

Qi Lei took a deep breath. He gathered the documents and handed them back to Mu Yuchen before he grabbed his cup of tea and drank it. “It’s enough. There’s no need to know too much about it.”

Mu Yuchen looked at the document Qi Lei held out. When he caught a glimpse of darkness in Qi Lei’s eyes, he bent down to pick up the document and hinted at Li Si with his eyes. In response, Li Si quickly took out a lighter and gave it to him.

Mu Yuchen’s expression was aloof even though the fire he lit was burning the document right before him. He looked at Qi Lei again after the document was completely destroyed. “There’s another piece of bad news that I need to tell you.”

“What is it?” Qi Lei calmed down, seeming indifferent compared to his reaction before.

“Qi Feng is coming back very soon. If I’m not mistaken, he’ll be back as soon as Qi Kai takes down South River Project No. 2, so you’ll be in an extremely bad position. The same goes for me as well. Due to what happened to me a while back, it doesn’t seem possible to keep Qi Qiming in check through South River Project No. 2, so I thought of something else,” Mu Yuchen said.

Qi Lei cocked his head and just looked at Mu Yuchen quietly, waiting for him to continue.

Mu Yuchen sipped some tea before he continued, “I’m sure you know that Glory World has been preparing to step foot into the showbiz industry some time ago.”

Qi Lei was startled. “It’s quite big news within the industry. It’s the development of Movie City with Li Corporation in City B. As such a huge investment project, it’s one of the top priorities for Glory World in the next few years. Moreover, you took away the elites from Yueying and set up Chen Ye Movies and Television. That’s the reason, isn’t it?”

“You’re half correct, but the reason I started Chen Ye Movies and Television was meant to be a gift for Xiaye. Ah Mo and Vice President Liu are very capable, and they’ve already made great development. With Glory World backing them up, it’ll have a bright future.”

Mu Yuchen paused as he put his teacup down. “I know Qi Kai had an idea to develop a new film base before, and it was your mother, Wang Qin’s idea. I suppose I understood CEO Wang pretty well. She didn’t like to take risks and her direction was fundamentally different from Qi Qiming’s all these years. Qi Qiming focused on discovering new things while CEO Wang wanted to push Qi Kai to new heights in the showbiz industry.”

Stunned, Qi Lei stared at Mu Yuchen. “These are all top-secret information in our company. How did you find out?”

“I have my ways. You have CEO Wang’s shares in your hands now, and her subordinates all agreed with her decision, so you can do whatever you want, but I’m just not sure if you have the power to do so.” Mu Yuchen glanced at Qi Lei with an unspoken intention.

“Stop teasing me. Are you going to help?” Qi Lei started to get serious.

Mu Yuchen sat down on the sofa and grinned. “I’ll talk to CEO Li to let you join in on the project. I’m even willing to let you operate Movie City in the future. I’ll only take the dividends and you’ll become one of the owners. While you provide the network resources and be in charge of the operations, I’ll put in the investment and we’ll share fifty-fifty. You can train yourself through Chen Ye. I suppose it’ll go on for at least several years. Get yourself out of Qi Kai and come here. You can also bring your people and leave Chen Ye if you want to.”

“So, are you saying that you’re letting me start up on my own?” Qi Lei was shocked by Mu Yuchen’s adventurous idea.

“Why not? Don’t you think it’s a good plan? Qi Kai started off as a showbiz company anyway, so let them do whatever they want and you just mind your own business. Let them know what you’re capable of…” Mu Yuchen did not finish his sentence, but Qi Lei already knew what he was getting at.

Apart from being shocked, he admonished, “You’re really shameless, Mu Yuchen. You already used this trick on Yueying back then, and Xi Xinyi took a huge hit from that!”

“That’s what businessmen do. Being kind to people like them is being cruel to yourself. What you need the most now is resources, and this is the only way I can think of for you to stand head to head with Qi Feng. I’m sure that’s want CEO Wang would’ve wanted as well. Why else did she never give up on recruiting people to join her?”

Mu Yuchen’s words lit the fire in Qi Lei’s heart. Qi Lei’s eyes brightened as he looked at Mu Yuchen. “Alright, if you say so, why not? I’ll stay at your place if I fail!”

Mu Yuchen smiled. “Don’t worry. Maple Residence is pretty spacious and there are a lot of empty rooms.”

“When can you have a concrete proposal?” Qi Lei asked.

“Wait until we’re sure that Qi Kai has gotten South River Project No. 2 down first.”

“It’s almost time. Are you confident about convincing CEO Li? He doesn’t seem very easygoing.”

Qi Lei had dealt with CEO Li before. He was a quiet and composed person, similar to Shen Yue, and was extremely careful with every action he took.
