Chapter 77 Do you know you're keeping a ghost in your house?
Chapter 77 Do you know you're keeping a ghost in your house?
Hearing Han Sanping's exclamation, Lin Yu, who was following behind, also walked forward curiously and glanced into the suite.
He was wondering what scene could make Han Sanping so impressed, but when he saw it, Lin Yu himself almost couldn't hold back.
Inside stood a row of beautiful women, all of them Huayi female artists. There were probably seven or eight of them at a glance. If you didn't know better, you would think you had entered a high-class club to select concubines.
There must be one of the Wang brothers who's not quite right in the head; the rumors circulating in the industry are accurate.
You know, Master Han is almost sixty years old this year. If he really enjoys himself, who will be responsible if something goes wrong?
Han Sanping's feet were rooted to the spot at the doorway; he didn't step inside, and his face darkened.
The female celebrities in the suite didn't dare to breathe loudly, looking at Han Sanping's expression. They stood there like wooden stakes, none of them daring to speak first.
Wang Zhongjun's face turned deathly pale instantly, and he abruptly turned to look at Wang Zhonglei. He truly hadn't expected his younger brother to have caused such a huge mess.
Such external liaison activities are usually handled by Wang Zhonglei. After receiving Lin Yu's invitation, he habitually handed the matter over to Wang Zhonglei, giving him three requirements: privacy, low profile, and good hospitality.
The hospitality was truly excellent; I certainly learned a lot.
"Hey, is this the legendary Huayi PR team?" Lin Yu, always eager for a good show, walked over to Han Sanping and greeted them, "Hello everyone, it's rare to see so many big stars all at once."
Sensing the awkward atmosphere, the female celebrities inside didn't dare to reply, each wearing a stiff smile, caught in a dilemma.
Wang Zhongjun broke out in a cold sweat and quickly whispered to the butler behind him, "Quickly, take Director Han and Director Lin to the side hall next door."
"Oh, they're quite aloof." Seeing that the people inside didn't respond, Lin Yu shook his head, turned around, and followed the waiter into the adjacent side hall.
The side room was much more normal, with a round table, a few chairs, ink wash landscape paintings on the wall, and exquisite tea sets on the coffee table, making it look like a proper place for business.
After he and Han Sanping sat down, the two Wang brothers stood beside them, both stiff and neither daring to speak.
Even if Wang Zhonglei were stupid, he would know that he had messed up this time. The main problem was that he had developed a habit of arranging events. He casually booked the venue and then asked his public relations manager to arrange the rest. The requirements that came out of his mouth were: important guests, highest level.
See, this is the benefit of subcontracting at every level; you never know what kind of "surprise" the final product will bring.
It can only be said that Wang Zhonglei's subordinates have become so used to handling receptions that they simply used the company's highest level of protocol without any hesitation.
"Uncle Han, it seems we're quite valued." After sitting down, Lin Yu chatted with Han Sanping with a smile before the two brothers could speak. "I just took a quick look, and they're all people I can name. They didn't just send some random people to fool us."
Han Sanping glared at Lin Yu, annoyed. "If you hadn't insisted on them booking a place, would this have happened?"
Han Sanping was really furious. He had finally gotten a job this year, and if this got out, who knew what kind of rumors would spread.
While they certainly won't cause him any trouble because of this, it will definitely affect his reputation.
Even if we take a step back and assume he actually started enjoying it, it would just get out and become a matter of personal conduct. But right now, he has absolutely no desire for that; he's only focused on dedicating himself entirely to his beloved film career!
Lin Yu looked at the two Wang brothers with a smile on his face, "Look how angry you two have made my Uncle Han. Well, you don't have to punish yourselves with three drinks. Just randomly block three movies from being approved next year as an apology."
Upon hearing this, the Wang brothers turned even paler. If anyone else had said it, the Wang brothers would have taken it as a warning and let it go. But this person was ruthless; if he said he would stop, he really would.
Wang Zhonglei was also quite frightened. He opened his mouth to explain, but didn't know what to say.
"Director Han, Director Lin, I apologize for my poor planning today." Wang Zhongjun took a deep breath and stepped forward. "I didn't expect my subordinates to act this way. Please calm down. I'll have them dismissed right now."
"Layoffs?" Lin Yu leaned back in his chair, his expression turning serious. "Now we'll find someone to write a press release, find a movie project. If no one leaks this today, nothing will happen."
Lin Yu tapped the table. "As soon as there's the slightest hint of trouble, release a press release immediately, saying that we're holding a joint casting call here today, understand?"
Looking at the serious Lin Yu, Han Sanping realized that there was another possibility.
Wang Zhongjun's face was extremely grim; all the inconsistencies today pointed to one possibility.
"I understand, Director Lin." Wang Zhongjun nodded. "I'll make the arrangements right away."
"Find a few more juicy scoops. Don't tell me you don't have them. Release them whenever you need them." Lin Yu stared at Wang Zhongjun. "Go back and investigate thoroughly. Find out who was involved in this matter and who can directly sever your connections with the artists."
How could the Wang brothers have been completely unaware of something so important? Even if the public relations department made the arrangements directly, the artist management department would still have to report it.
Wang Zhongjun's expression was uncertain, he must have thought of some people. "Director Lin is right, I will go back and investigate thoroughly immediately."
Han Sanping calmed down a bit, picked up his teacup and took a sip. "Alright, everyone sit down, let's talk about business first."
The Wang brothers only dared to sit down after hearing this, but both of them sat very stiffly, completely unlike their usual domineering demeanor in the industry.
"Mr. Wang," Lin Yu looked at the two of them, "I remember we agreed that you would release the list as soon as the money arrived. How come it's been so long and you've only just found these small fry?"
"Director Lin, there's some resistance to this matter within the company." Wang Zhongjun looked at Lin Yu and explained, "Although Zhong Lei and I are major shareholders, we don't have absolute control. I've been contacting other shareholders to coordinate this matter recently."
"I completely understand your difficulties." Lin Yu nodded, indicating that he understood their predicament. "How about this, you give me the things, and I'll have someone else handle them. I'll send you a banner of appreciation later."
Wang Zhongjun knew he couldn't delay any longer, so he could only reply, "Understood, I will cooperate."
"You guys are still clinging to illusions. You haven't even started yet, and they've already given you a warning." Lin Yu looked at Wang Zhongjun's expression and could guess what he was thinking. "They treat you like dogs. If you don't obey, they'll just kill you. And you're still naively thinking about minimizing the losses."
"Abandon illusions and prepare for struggle."
