As Stacy thought about it, she felt that Lyra was laying traps for her, so she chose to ignore her questions.
Stacy continued her questioning, "When did Miss Carroll make a deal with Grandviz? How come I haven't heard anything about this?"
"Miss Kim, you're funny. You mean I have to inform you first when I do something?"
Lyra sneered and stared at Stacy with penetrating gaze, "Who do you think you are?"
Stacy was stunned, not expecting Lyra to retort her in front of the whole company.
At the moment, all eyes were fixed her, waiting for her to make a fool of herself.
She bit her lips, with an injured look on her face. She softened her tone and said respectfully, "I'm sorry. I was full of myself. I thought you, the director, would've discussed it with your subordinates."
The weak and cowering Stacy, against the proud and aggressive Lyra.
She acted like Lyra was using her privilege as the director to bully her.
Stacy was complacent about herself.
Wanna fight with her?
This unruly newcomer was not experienced enough!
Keith tapped his knuckles on the conference table, his face a bit displeased, "The director certainly has the right to make her own decisions. There is no need to make a fuss."
"Yes, Mr. Lloyd."
Stacy's face was embarrassed and she could only sit back resentfully.
Lyra, however, stared at her and continued, "But since Miss Kim is asking, I'll tell you. Yesterday morning, the head of Grandviz and I had decided on the actors."
What?
Stacy was flabbergasted.
It was not until yesterday afternoon that she told Lyra about Grandviz's new project, but it turned out that Lyra had already settle the deal that morning...
Then why did she still agree to the dinner last night?
Stacy stared at Lyra incredulously, like she had seen a ghost.
So she did it on purpose?
Could it be that both Mr. Harper and Mr. McCormick were sent to jail by her?
Looking at Lyra's face, which was almost like too beautiful to be true, Stacy felt a sudden chill down her spine.
But after a moment, she dismissed the idea again.
How was it possible that this young unsophisticated girl would be such astute and calculating?
No way!
Coincidence, it must be a coincidence!
Under the long table, Stacy's clenched her fists so tightly that her nails were cutting her palm, before she finally calmed down.
Since Stacy did not make any further remarks, the meeting continued.
Lyra continued with her presentation.
"In terms of the overall planning, everything will remain the same for now. Each popular artists will keep working on the endorsement collaboration and variety shows they've already got."
When it was all said and done, there was no objection from the room.
Lyra continued, "Last but not least, the company have got a group of trainees whole are mostly young and inexperienced. I suggest that we can start a reality television talent competition franchise, where we can also invite other companies to participate, and in the end seven out a hundred candidates will make it to the debut as an idol group. This is also a good way to let our trainees understand the showbiz better."
"Wait, I need to say something!"
Stacy again raised her hand and stood up, "Miss Carroll, holding a reality talent competition is no small feat, and this proposal seems to be beyond your scope of work, not to mention the fact that this genre is not exactly well-received in the domestic market. If the company suffer losses due to this..."
As she was speaking, she saw Lyra frown and fan herself with her elegant hand.
"What's the smell on you?"
Stacy looked confused, "I didn't smell anything."
"No?" Lyra sneered, "Then why do you keep bullshitting? And you've tried so hard to draw attention regardless of the occasion."
Pfft...
Many employees couldn't help but snicker.
The employees sitting next to Stacy involuntarily covered their noses and silently moved away from her.
