The Press Conference

Two weeks passed by as Ye Sakura spent her time training. She had changed her training strategy to focus only on conditioning her body and getting a full night of rest every night instead of using her meditation technique. Due to this change she was able to continuously train everyday while still having energy during her rest periods, as well as, slowly reduce the fatigue she felt after finishing the training for the day.

During her rest periods she would study the materials her grandfather had sent her and researched more about acting. Even though she had some memories from her bodies previous host about acting, she still felt she needed to learn more in order to not make a fool of herself when the time came.

There was something that Ye Sakura had noticed during her training throughout the last two weeks. Once everyday she would sense a presence at her door. However, after just a few minutes of that presence just seemingly standing there it would leave. As she did not feel any danger from it, she had decided to ignore it. She believed that if whoever it was didn't knock or request to enter, then whatever it was they came for was not important enough to waste her precious training time.

Today, however, was different from her normal training schedule. Last night she had been invited to her grandfather's study where she had signed a contract to be an artist at a new company he had just created. There was a press conference being held today which she was asked to attend that would officially announce the new company. It would also include news of Ye Sakura being the first artist to be signed.

Ye corporation was one of the top three biggest and most well-known conglomerates in the country, therefore, even though it was still a few hours before the press conference reporters where lined up outside the location where it was to be held even though they had no information on what the said press conference was about.

Finishing her training early, Sakura started getting prepared.

Ye Taro had not expected this day to come. He was currently preparing for the press conference that would announce the new branch he had been asking for years to create. He had been sad when he found out that his father had finally caved in to the prospect of entering the entertainment industry after all these years just for the girl he called his granddaughter.

However, after realizing he would be taking the initial lead of the new branch and the fact that he already had a plan to take care of that pink haired devil niece of his, he quickly felt his fortune turning around. Having complete control of the branch she would be working under, he could easily place the newly hired assassin of his right next to her.

When his father and the little devil arrived, everyone was finally present. So, when the venue was packed with reporters and journalists, Ye Taro walked out onto the stage.

"Hello Ladies and Gentleman, I am Ye Taro, the managing Director of Ye Corporation." He introduced himself even though almost everyone in the country knew who he was. "I am here today to introduce to you a new branch of our Ye Corporation. Today, I introduce to you Ye Entertainment."

Then he gestured to the screen behind him as a video began to play. It was a video explaining what Ye Entertainment was and it's plans for the future. At the end of the video, it was announced that the first artist of Ye Entertainment had already been signed and that she was here at today's conference.

The second the video for the press conference ended, Ye Sakura walked out onto the stage with her grandfather. She was surprised at first by all the flashing cameras but she slowly forced herself to get used to it.

Grandfather Ye quickly introduced her as the newly signed artist which sent a wave through the reporters and journalists present. Realizing who the girl was they were at first disappointed that she wasn't an A-list actress. However, when they started thinking about how she was Ye Corporation's CEO's granddaughter, they realized this might be even bigger news.

After being barraged by several questions, Ye Sakura's part of the press conference was now over. At this point her grandfather began revealing details of her contract.

"Her contract states that when she retires she will become the president of Ye Entertainment." Grandfather Ye said to finish up before they left the stage to leave the rest of the conference to Ye Entertainments new management.

For the next week, the top searches online were similar to statements like: "Ye Corps granddaughter, using connection for fame."

"Whole company created for sake of Ye Corps granddaughter."

"Greedy Ye Sakura!"

Even though they had planned to use the excuse of Sakura being groomed for the president's position to avoid this situation, the internet still went out of control.

But after news of multiple high tier actors and actresses signing with Ye Entertainment came out, the news about Ye Sakura slowly faded away.
