Jin Nian stopped in her tracks and quickly left.

After exiting the sponsors company, she still hadnt overcome the feeling of disgust.

That sensation was even more repulsive than eating a fly.

The meeting concluded at precisely 330 in the afternoon.

Jiang Qingchi quickly proceeded to the next meeting.

Now, he was under a lot of pressure. In order to change the companys form, he was looking for the next round of financing.

After experiencing the plagiarism scandal, the companies that were interested in investing in him had become very cold to him. In order to win the other partys funding, he had to be more proactive.

This time, he aimed to secure investment from overseas investors.

Upon Jiang Qingchis arrival, he was promptly escorted to a conference room where matters about investment were being meticulously a.n.a.lyzed and discussed.

The conference rooms door swung open unexpectedly, abruptly halting the discussions.

Lu An lowered his head, fiddling with the phone Jin Nian had given him. He merely waved his hand, indicating they should proceed without concern for him.

Upon hearing that the company was a.n.a.lyzing new investment projects, he had grown bored and decided to take a peek.

As the head of the company, Lu An had brought together a group of young and dynamic individuals.

This company was established by Lu An six years ago overseas. This company gathered animation, anime, and gaming, making it an incredibly comprehensive internet firm.

In just a few years, the company gained substantial recognition within the industry.

Apart from being financially robust, their investment approach was just as substantial. Moreover, the quality of the animated films they produced was exceptional, which contributed to their recent prominence.

Lu An, as the companys founder, had remained a topic of conversation within the industry. Yet, he maintained a remarkably low profile, rarely appearing on the companys premises, and was almost absent from significant projects.

In his perspective, as long as one understood how to manage personnel, there was no need to expend unnecessary effort.

His sharp discernment allowed him to instantly identify issues with projects at first glance.

Although he was this discerning, he was presently treating a cell phone as if it were a precious gem.

After all, it had been a gift from his wife.

He sat at the back in a low-key manner and did not listen to what was being said in front. His attention was all on his phone.

Over the years, he had changed a lot of phones, and he kept every old phone because he couldnt transfer the chat history to the new phone.

He couldnt bear to lose the few chat records he had with Jin Nian.

Suddenly, a commotion erupted at the front. This caused Lu An to momentarily s.h.i.+ft his focus away from his phone, and he lifted his head to observe the situation.

When his gaze landed on a certain individual, his typically languid eyes turned icy in an instant.

So, its Starry Sky Culture?

Lu An suddenly interjected.

Jiang Qingchi, who had been fiddling with his phone, was abruptly cut off. He felt a measure of displeasure, particularly upon seeing that his interruption had come from a youthful figure. His annoyance seemed to amplify.

The person in the front row at this moment reminded him, Thats CEO Lu.

The slight dissatisfaction in Jiang Qingchis heart vanished instantly, and a smile appeared on his face.

h.e.l.lo, CEO Lu. I am the representative of Starry Sky Culture.

Lu An didnt bother to glance at him and retorted coldly, Has the investment department gone crazy? Why are they letting just anyone in?

CEO Lu, is there some misunderstanding about me? Jiang Qingchi quickly inquired.

Lu An only let out a mocking smile, his clear laughter resonating throughout the entire office, almost akin to delivering a slap across Jiang Qingchis face.

Even though he hadnt said much, his overwhelming presence made it hard for people to ignore him.

At this moment, Jin Nian was in Binhai citys renowned Internet industry zone.

The vicinity was dotted with internet companies, and not far away, a highly modern office building displayed an English sign that momentarily left her slightly stunned.

She thought about the internet friend she had never met before.

This string of English words translated to whale.

After their last contact, she already knew that this individual was in Binhai city, a realization that felt somewhat surreal.

It was as though she believed this person could only exist in the virtual world.

Jin Nian hadnt reached out to him online for quite some time.

At this moment, she could not help but wonder if that person was related to the company in front of her.

However, she quickly denied her guess. The main reason was that it was too unbelievable and made her feel that it was impossible.

I never imagined that there would be a Chinese division of Whale here.

He Ming, roughly the same age as Jin Nian, was a true otaku who enjoyed playing games and watching anime.

Some of the well-known online games nowadays are produced by their company. The games are fun, and the graphics are incredibly impressive!

Although Jin Nian didnt like to play games, she had heard about the games that He Ming mentioned..
