Chapter 139 - 139 Two Conditions



“Director Zhou,” Xue Zhanhua answered the phone, respectfully.

“What on earth is going on with you? For the sake of an investment share in a movie, you’ve made such a mess. Do you have any idea how much this will cost the company? Do you know that our company’s stock price has already hit the limit down? Do you realize how much we’ve lost?!” the major shareholder interrogated with a stern voice.

“Director Zhou, I will handle this matter immediately,” Xue Zhanhua said as cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

He was indeed a big shot in the film industry, holding five percent of the company’s dividend shares.

This five percent of the dividend shares, he could enjoy dividends from while he was serving as the general manager.

Once he resigned, the company would automatically reclaim them.

But the fury of the major shareholder was difficult for him to endure.

“Hmph, I’ve talked with a few other shareholders. You’d better settle this issue today, or you can stop being the general manager!”

With a snort, the major shareholder hung up the phone.

Xue Zhanhua put down his phone with a bitter expression on his face.

“Who should I find to mediate? If I go to Fang Pengtao for help, I’ll owe him a favor. It’s better to go to Wu Jing; with him, I won’t owe any favors.”

In his eyes, Wu Jing was just a minor character; seeking out Wu Jing would be giving face to Wu Jing and wouldn’t involve owing favors.

Xue Zhanhua was about to dial Wu Jing’s number when his assistant pushed the door open and entered again.

“President Xue, it’s bad!” the assistant was even more frantic than before.

“What happened?” Xue Zhanhua’s heart sank, but he still needed to ask clearly.

“One of the new rising stars, P, has been exposed for sleeping with fans and drug use!”

“There are videos, pictures, and various recordings, WeChat messages!”

“All the companies he endorsed have already issued statements suspending the cooperation!”

The assistant then placed the phone in front of Xue Zhanhua.

“This bastard, sleeping with fans isn’t the main issue, but drug use? Who gave him the guts!” Xue Zhanhua said, his face turning ashen.

Sleeping with fans, as long as the fans are willing, it’s consensual, not so severe.

But drug use, that’s serious.

This was crossing a red line.

Once this red line is crossed, one can forget about ever making a comeback.

The company had spent a great deal of money to cultivate this rising star.

Just as he was becoming famous, set to become the company’s cash cow.

But before they could break even, such a scandal erupted.

The losses were severe.

And these were very tangible losses.

All endorsements would be canceled, and those companies would even seek compensation.

Xue Zhanhua felt he couldn’t wait anymore and immediately dialed Wu Jing’s number.

Soon, the call connected.

“Director Wu, please pass a message to Xu Yang for me. I want to make peace and discuss the investment shares with him again. His thirty percent investment share will not be one percentage point less. We need to talk about some other matters as well. Tomorrow I will go to Jiangcheng to talk with him. Tell him not to take any action, or I really won’t be able to hold on here,” Xue Zhanhua said immediately.

He was truly afraid that if there were a few more minutes of delay, something else would be leaked, and then he could forget about being the general manager.

“Alright, I will call him right away.”

Wu Jing had been keeping an eye on the news online.

He had not expected Xu Yang’s counterattack to be so sharp, forcing Xue Zhanhua to directly seek peace.

He was quite willing to be the mediator, after all, “War Panther 2” still needed to be filmed.

The sooner the conflict between the two parties is resolved, the better.

After hanging up the phone, he immediately dialed Xu Yang’s number.

Soon, the call connected.

“Director Wu,” Xu Yang’s relaxed voice came through.

“President Xu, your tactics are really impressive,” Wu Jing’s first words were words of admiration.

“Just average,” Xu Yang chuckled lightly, “Director Wu, did Xue Zhanhua ask you to call me?”

Such a series of strikes would be too much for Xue Zhanhua to withstand, which was normal.

For the sake of saving face, he didn’t call himself directly but found a middleman instead.

Xu Yang could understand Xue Zhanhua’s psyche very well.

He had hacker skills. If Xue Zhanhua wouldn’t reconcile, he would continuously leak problems about Hua’an Film and Television.

Hua’an Film and Television was a film company, and there was truly an abundance of damning material inside.

Executives breaking the rules with actresses, young male actors sleeping with fans and using drugs, these were just appetizers.

If Xue Zhanhua continued to resist, he would keep leaking more.

In the end, Hua’an Film and Television might even go bankrupt and shut down.

“President Xu really is prescient…” Wu Jing flattered, then relayed Xue Zhanhua’s intentions.

“No problem, let’s talk at the Jiangcheng Hotel again, tomorrow at ten in the morning. Since it all started there, let’s end it there,” Xu Yang said.

“Alright, I’ll tell him right away. This will be great news for him. See you tomorrow,” Wu Jing said.

“See you tomorrow.” Xu Yang hung up the phone.

In the blink of an eye, it was the following morning at ten o’clock.

Xu Yang, Wu Jing, Xue Zhanhua, and other bigwigs from the film industry met at the Jiangcheng Hotel.

This time, the bigwigs from other film companies also came to discuss the investment shares.

Fang Pengtao was too busy to come, but Wan Da’s share would not be forgotten.

“President Xu, you went too far. Do you know how much negative impact your actions have caused our company? How much loss?” Xue Zhanhua’s face looked terrible.

“President Xue, I don’t understand what you’re saying. If I remember correctly, you wanted to discuss the issue of investment shares with me, but it seems that’s not the case now. Since that’s the situation, I won’t stay any longer. Farewell!”

Xu Yang stood up to leave.

If they started by accusing him, he wasn’t about to indulge them.

If Xue Zhanhua wanted to continue fighting, he was ready to accompany him to the end.

“President Xu, please wait,” Wu Jing immediately became anxious, quickly standing up to pull Xu Yang back, and then turned to Xue Zhanhua, “President Xue, we are here today to discuss the investment shares for ‘War Panther 2’, let’s not talk about other things, shall we?”

Xue Zhanhua was also aware that his words just now were somewhat inappropriate. He took a deep breath and forced a strained smile, “President Xu, my apologies, I’ve been dealing with some bothersome matters recently and misspoke. Please forgive me.”

For a big figure in the film industry like him to say such words was indeed very rare.

Xu Yang wasn’t really planning to leave, so he said, “Since that’s the case, I won’t hold it against you.”

After saying that, he sat back down on the sofa.

“President Xu, let’s talk about the investment shares,” Xue Zhanhua said.

“According to the priority investment agreement, I hold thirty percent, not one percent less. As for the rest, you can handle it yourselves, it’s none of my business,” Xu Yang said indifferently.

“No problem,” Xue Zhanhua naturally knew that Xu Yang wouldn’t budge. This had already been discussed with other film tycoons, and he no longer pressured Xu Yang.

Xu Yang’s tactics were too ruthless, and the others were somewhat frightened.

Whoever dared to step out, if Xu Yang used that kind of tactic on them, nobody could withstand it.

“Also, I hope you can agree to two conditions,” Xu Yang added.

“What conditions?” Xue Zhanhua narrowed his eyes, feeling somewhat displeased, but still decided to listen to what Xu Yang had to say.
