Axis of Channing, Cloud Palace Restaurant.
Wearing a professional hip skirt, the tall and exquisitely dressed Penny Smith, together with several other executives of the Cross Group, were led into the restaurant's most expensive compartment by a waiter.
The waiter held the door open and spoke to Penny with a smile, "Ms. Smith, Mr. Potter and the others are waiting for you."
Penny nodded slightly before walking into the room with Frida Hampton and several executives of the Cross Group.
There was already quite a few people in the room.
Among them was a pot-bellied, middle-aged man. The plump man was the famous media mogul, Hagrid Potter.
It turned out that Cross Group had achieved remarkable results from the previous year.
Penny intended to host an annual celebration party to reward the employees who have contributed enormously to the company.
Since it was a celebration, it was natural to invite celebrities to perform.
However, it was not an easy feat to invite a major celebrity. One of the first step to do was to negotiate the price. Hence, this was the reason Penny met up with Hagrid Potter.
Penny wanted to talk to Hagrid about hiring several big-name celebrities to perform at the Cross Group's annual celebration, as well as the issue of compensation.
When Hagrid saw Penny, he couldn't hide his amazement.
Regardless of appearance or temperament, Penny wasn't half-bad compared to any of Hagrid's company's female celebrities.
To be precise, Penny was light-years ahead in all aspects.
Hagrid couldn't help but think to himself, If this woman isn't the president of Cross Group and decided to step into the entertainment industry, I would only need to dress her up a little for her to become popular.
Hagrid brought a group of celebrities and subordinates to welcome her. Grinning, he said, "President Smith, you're finally here.”
"Sorry about that. There was heavy traffic on the way here. My apologies for making you all wait here," Penny smiled and replied.
Hagrid chuckled and spoke up, "It's no problem at all. Come, President Smith. I'll introduce you to some of our company's popular artists..."
As he said this, Hagrid introduced several male and female celebrities standing behind him in succession. Among these celebrities, he put heavy emphasis on a slender and handsome male celebrity.
He smiled and stated, "This man is our company's mainstay, Blake Fuller."
Blake had recently acted in two TV series and has become extremely popular all over the Internet.
