From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show-Chapter 802: Tiger Turned Azure

"Mr. Young Do, this is bad!"

The CEO of Phoenix Entertainment stopped reading his daily Yuri manga to look at his assistant.

"I hope you interrupted me for a good reason," he said.

"Mr. Suman! I think Azure's going down."

Mr. Suman, the CEO of ESPER Entertainment, stopped eating his rice cakes as one of the board of directors came inside his room.

"What? Tell me some good news, will you?"

CEOS of different companies were in turmoil after rumors had arisen about Mr. Ong, Azure

Entertainment's CEO.

"Are we next?"

"How did they find out?"

"Are they going to start investigating our company, too?"

"We need to clean up everything quickly!

"Cover all of the illegal issues!"

It was a rainy morning, with a thunderstorm on its way to bombard the country.

However, what the people didn't know was that another kind of storm was going to hit them. In a small dorm room in the middle of Seoul was Jia, who was scrolling through her phone and watching some velocity edits of June.

Just then, she saw a compilation of the members of EVE being overworked, with June having the most screen time.

"She's crazy," Bora said to her other friends. "One moment, she's crying. Another second, she's laughing. Now, she's annoyed."

Soomin chuckled. "Give her a couple of seconds. I bet she'll curse out Azure Entertainment once again."

"My babies are being overworked! However, they're practically jobless right now. They don't even have content! But when they have a comeback, they throw them to multiple brand deals that are not even beneficial to the team," Jia exclaimed, standing from the floor to pace back and forth.

"See! They give my boys so much to work on. However, they can't give them a comeback with proper promotion. Azure is fucking shit!"

"I really wish that their CEO would fall from grace! He has been shit at handling his artists since GIRLS' REVOLUTION!"

"I bet my love life on this! I'd rather be alone my entire life than for him to retain his position!"

Just then, loud thunder resonated in the room, causing the girls to scream in surprise. "Breaking News! Azure's CEO In Crisis!"

They all turned their attention to the television before them.

"Mr. Ong, the once-celebrated CEO of Azure Entertainment, has been ousted from his position. This abrupt change comes in the wake of a series of alarming allegations and a decisive vote by the board of directors."

"Mr. Ong, who recently garnered widespread acclaim for his significant contributions to a high-profile charity concert, is now at the center of a scandal that has rocked Azure Entertainment to its core. Following a unanimous vote by the board, he has been removed from his role as CEO, effective immediately."

"The decision to remove Mr. Ong was not taken lightly. It follows a growing list of serious accusations that have emerged over the past few weeks. Mr. Ong is currently under investigation for fraud, infidelity, and possession of child pornography."

"The board of directors is now faced with the critical task of selecting a new CEO to lead Azure Entertainment through this period. The process is expected to be thorough and swift, as the company aims to stabilize and restore its image in the wake of these damaging revelations." "As investigations continue and the company seeks new leadership, all eyes will be on how Azure navigates this crisis and rebuilds its standing in the industry."

Then, just as the screen shifted to another scene, the lights and all electronics turned off-a blackout!

The girls remained silent for a few moments before Bora broke it.

"Welp," she said.

"Looks like you'll forever be alone, Jia."

"It's happening," Jay said as they stood in the middle of the floor.

Staff would usually stop and stare at the members.

However, they couldn't do so this time.

People kept running around while the board held a meeting.

"Holy crap," Ren muttered. "Are we actually going to witness the downfall of Mr. Ong before our very eyes?"

Zeth sniffed. "The day has finally come."

Jisung clicked his tongue. "We're not even sure if it's really going to happen."

"That's true," Casper chimed.

June shrugged and sat on one of the couches. "It's going to happen," June said.

"How are you so sure?" Akira asked.

"Don't question my bro," Jisung said, sitting next to June with a wide smile.

"I believe you," Casper sincerely said.

Akira shook his head and massaged the bridge of his nose. "You guys are the worst, I swear."

"The board is currently having a meeting about who's going to replace him. So, for all I know,

Mr. Ong is as good as done," Jay said, also taking a seat.

Sehun frowned in confusion. "Why are you here then? Shouldn't you be inside?"

Jay shrugged. "I'm not part of the board."

"But I heard that the other managers are there," Jaeyong remarked.

"Correction," Jay said. "Only Lei is there."

"Wait, what?" Jisung asked. "Why? He's not part of the board of directors, right?"

"He's not," Jay smirked. "But he has something that warrants his presence in that very

room," he said, pointing to the closed auditorium.

Jay and June turned to each other before shaking their heads in amusement.

"You guys will know soon enough."

Meanwhile, inside the meeting room, Lei stood at the very center.

"We commend Lei for bringing these matters to light," one of the board of directors said, gulping as he looked at Lei's enthusiastic smile.

"Thank you," Lei bowed gratefully. "The last thing I want is for Azure to crumble because of one's individual sins."

"With that being said, I believe that everyone in this room has contributed well to the success

of Azure, and I also know that you have nothing to do with what Mr. Ong had done," he

continued.

Chills ran through the old people's spines.

At that moment, they felt that they were in the presence of a very powerful force.

"As the news broke out the other day, multiple investors have pulled out," the old man continued, his voice unconsciously shaking.

"With that, Lei had brought the shares of the company and is now the greatest shareholder after Mr. Ong's seize."

The board of directors turned to each other in surprise, wondering where Lei had gotten that much amount of money.

"As of now, he owns 42% of the shares," the old man continued, making the others even more

confused.

One woman, whose shares merely accounted for 6% of Azure Entertainment, raised her hand. "So, this meeting isn't for us to choose the next CEO, right?"

"No," the old man sighed. "This meeting is a formal announcement of the new CEO of Azure

Entertainment."

Lei's smile widened as he stood straight in front of the old crowd.

"Good afternoon, everyone," he said.

"I shall be asking your cooperation from now on."

"Not as a manager, but as the CEO of Azure Entertainment."
