Never Meeting Again In Our Next Life (Living Life Over) - Volume 2 (41)
Chapter 41 Summation
After Li Mo and Ji Qin were observed in the hospital for two days, they returned to the crew to continue filming.
Weeks later, they did not wait for Gu Yuexuan’s public apology, but instead received shocking news.
Gu Yuexuan’s “Ruifeng Entertainment” held a press conference and announced that Gu Yuexuan would retire from the company’s top management and terminate the cooperative relationship. At the same time, all endorsements and filming work by Gu Yuexuan would be stopped. Ruifeng Entertainment was willing to pay all liquidated damages.
As soon as this incident came out, it shocked almost the entire entertainment industry.
Xia Liang only saw this news in the entertainment news after being reminded by Song Yan on the phone that night. At that time, he had the same reaction as everyone else. He did not expect that Ruifeng Entertainment would suddenly become so ruthless towards its own cash cow.
But he soon realized that Ruifeng’s move seemed to sacrifice Gu Yuexuan at the tragic cost of losing his strength and hurting both sides. However, as long as Gu Yuexuan did not apologize publicly, his reputation would not be damaged. , and as long as his reputation in the entertainment industry remains intact and fans’ hearts remain intact, there will still be a chance for him to make a comeback. From this point of view, Ruifeng Entertainment, his old club, is still very merciful to Gu Yuexuan.
However, the only thing that makes Xia Liang confused is that Ruifeng Entertainment would rather pay a large sum of money to sacrifice Gu Yuexuan in such a big way. Who is this low profile for? What is the other party’s real purpose? What is it again?
Before he could figure it out, he received a strange phone call.
Although he didn’t know the identity of the other party, he guessed that the person who called him at this time must be related to Gu Yuexuan’s matter.
After he answered the phone, he heard a bass with a strong aura saying slowly: “Mr. Xia, you are well.”
At this moment, Xia Liang filtered through all the acquaintances with similar voices in his mind, but couldn’t find the corresponding face, so he asked cautiously: “Who are you?”
”Ruifeng Entertainment, Ying Mohua.”
”So it’s Mr. Ying,” Xia Liang greeted politely, “I didn’t expect you to call me in person.”
Although he sounded familiar with what he said, he was murmuring in his heart that Mo Hua’s name was a bit unfamiliar, and the other party’s words “be well” seemed to imply that the two parties had some friendship, but he just couldn’t search for such a person in his memory bank. The right person.
While the other party was talking, he waved to Zhou Shuo on the side and mouthed to him: [Help me retrieve the information on the management of Ruifeng Entertainment. 】
Zhou Shuo nodded, moved a laptop, and started searching for information about Ruifeng Entertainment next to Xia Liang.
Ying Mohua smiled very easy-going on the phone: “We haven’t seen each other for nearly ten years, does Mr. Xia still remember me?”
Zhou Shuo turned around the laptop and motioned to Xia Liang to look at the network information searched on the screen.
Xia Liang has investigated the situation of Ruifeng Entertainment before. This entertainment company has not been established for a long time. The legal representative is a woman with an average background. Except for Gu Yuexuan, whose artists are more famous, the other artists are half-popular but not popular. So he didn’t pay too much attention.
However, at this moment, it seems that Ying Mohua is the person who speaks with more weight in Ruifeng Entertainment.
Xia Liang swiped the mouse and found out that a vice president of Ruifeng Entertainment was named Ying Mohua.
While continuing to be polite to Ying Mohua, he pointed out Ying Mohua’s name to Zhou Shuo, signaling Zhou Shuo to investigate this person in depth.
”I’m sorry,” Xia Liang smiled apologetically, “I don’t have a very good memory. Could you please give me a hint?”
“Mr.
Xia Liang frowned slightly, always feeling that the other party seemed to have something to say, but before he could think about it carefully, Zhou Shuo had already retrieved Ying Mohua’s personal information.
Ying Mohua, whose English name is Morton, is the third heir to the Nelson family, one of the seven largest chaebols in the United States. He is a mixed-race Chinese and American, and “Ying” is his mother’s surname.
”So…it’s you.” Xia Liang stared at the familiar English names and murmured with enlightenment.
”What, Mr. Xia remembered?”
”Morton,” Xia Liang smiled, “If you reported your English name at the beginning, maybe I could remember it faster.”
Zhou Shuo raised his eyes and looked at Xia Liang. He wondered if it was his imagination. He found that after seeing the personal introduction about Ying Mohua, the edges of Xia Liang’s eyebrows softened a little.
This made him feel a little uncomfortable.
”As the Romans do,” Ying Mohua smiled, “When I return to China, I will inherit the property of my matrilineal family. Naturally, I want to make myself more Chinese-style from the inside out.”
”So, your maternal family’s business also includes Ruifeng Entertainment?” Xia Liang brought the topic back on track without leaving any trace.
Ying Mohua was silent for a moment and said: “The legal representative of Ruifeng Entertainment is my cousin. I was just dragged into the company by her to get some shares.”
Xia Liang understood that taking a stake in Ruifeng Entertainment was just a small game for Ying Mo Hua. However, because of Ying Mo Hua’s strong background in the United States, he, the vice president, had a transcendent status in the company and actually had the right to speak. Overshadowing his cousin.
”Have you read today’s entertainment news?” Ying Mohua naturally took over the topic, “Is Mr. Xia satisfied with the results of Ruifeng Entertainment’s handling of Gu Yuexuan?”
A flash of lightning flashed through Xia Liang’s heart – could it be said that Ruifeng Entertainment’s crisis public relations was entirely for her own benefit?
He has been immersed in the business world for many years, and he understands that the nature of a businessman is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. He will not lower his worth for no reason and take the initiative to seek peace, unless the other party has an agenda.
However, it is not yet known what the other party wants from him. But his intuition told him that Ying Mohua might be coming with bad intentions.
”I can’t take it for granted,” Xia Liang said lightly, “At the beginning, I only asked Gu Yuexuan to publicly apologize in addition to compensation. Your company’s move is beyond my expectation.”
”This time, it is indeed Gu Yuexuan who went too far. Our company has made some omissions in management, and it is hard to escape the blame.” Ying Mohua said in a sincere tone, “Even if I have to pay ten Gu Yuexuan, I will not be able to escape the blame.” nothing to say.”
Xia Liang frowned slightly, and the subtle discomfort before came to his heart again.
Ying Mohua seemed to have heard all the suspicions in his silence, and continued with a smile: “Of course, this is also mixed with some of my personal selfishness. A brief meeting with Mr. Xia ten years ago made me feel like an old friend at first sight. , I feel regretful that we met so late, and I didn’t want to meet again in such a way. The result of Gu Yuexuan’s handling is regarded as a meeting gift from me to Mr. Xia. I wonder if Mr. Xia can appreciate it. Let’s get together together?”
Xia Liang was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, his expression was a bit colder: “This meeting gift from Mr. Ying is too heavy, and I’m afraid Xia won’t be able to bear it. What’s more, with Mr. Ying’s status, The sky will be brighter and the future will be brighter. Xia’s situation is insignificant and has no influence. How dare you worry about it? I hope Ying always has a far-sighted view and doesn’t need to stick to these small things.”
