Entertainment: Since 1990

Chapter 168 Although I like money, I value feelings even more.
"You like big ones?"

At first, Wang Zuxian thought that Cao Jian's age was unusual and wondered if this handsome young man had some kind of fetish.
Such men are rare, but they do exist.

But soon she realized that the boy probably wasn't talking about age.
Her face immediately flushed red, and she scolded, "How can you be so naughty at such a young age?"

What's wrong with me?

Cao Jian feigned innocence: "I like mature and beautiful older sisters like you, how is that bad?"

"never mind."

Seeing that the man was using a fallacy to change the subject, Wang Zuxian had no way to expose him.

She asked, "How did you know I would be interested in moxibustion for health and wellness?"

"I think moxibustion is a great way to maintain health. It's good for your body. I think you can look into it. It's that simple."

As Cao Jian spoke, he reached out and grabbed Wang Zuxian's hand: "I just want to see Sister Zuxian stay this beautiful forever."

"Let go first."

Wang Zuxian never expected that this young man would attack so suddenly. He tried to pull his hand back, but it was impossible.

She could only say, "Xiao Cao, actually I have a pretty good impression of you, and your singing is no worse than that person's, but I need some time to get to know you and then resolve that person's matter. Can you give me some time?"

"of course can."

Cao Jian wasn't in a hurry, and he knew that the person she was talking about was Young Master Qi, whom she rarely saw.

The better you resolve this matter, the more I'll be able to support you.

Gently stroking Wang Zuxian's smooth, creamy hand, she asked, "Do you need time to consider because I'm five years younger than you?"

"Yes, that's part of the reason. I also prefer bigger ones; you're a bit small."

"Sister Zuxian, I'm actually not young, really, you'll find out later."

"You're up to no good again."

As adults, Wang Zuxian immediately grasped the meaning behind Cao Jian's words, which actually made her feel a little expectant.

Soon, the food was served.

Cao Jian raised a glass of red wine: "Sister Zuxian, cheers."

"cheers."

Wang Zuxian took a sip of red wine, making her lips look even more alluring.

Cao Jian sincerely said, "You are really beautiful."

"Thank you, you've said that so many times."

Wang Zuxian smiled confidently and asked, "Since you want to pursue me, we agreed to go back to Taiwan together last time. Why did you suddenly go to Japan? Did something happen?"

"I have something to take care of. I was just about to go to Warner Music. Are you free this afternoon? Want to come along?"

"sure."

Anyway, after returning to Taiwan, Wang Zuxian had nothing to do.

Since I've agreed to spend time with Cao Jian first, I should get to know him better.

Although it was just a casual meal, Cao Jian was very talkative and told jokes, making Wang Zuxian laugh several times during the meal.

She suddenly felt that dating a man like that would be quite nice.

He's mainly funny, and handsome too.

After dinner, the two went to Warner Music's branch in Taiwan, which is also the company that Beyond is currently signed with.

On the way, Cao Jian held Wang Zuxian's hand, which was so lovely that he couldn't put it down, and asked, "Sister Zuxian, you've been free lately. I'm about to film a TV series. Would you like to make a cameo appearance?"

"You want me to have a cameo role in a TV series?"

Wang Zuxian has been making movies since her debut, and Nie Xiaoqian brought her career to its peak.

If I want to make movies, film and television companies will be lining up. You want me to make TV series?

Did something go wrong?
“I’m always filming TV dramas, and I’m always the lead. Besides, I’ve also invested in this TV drama. You’ll be one of my people in the future. Just a cameo appearance in the drama, just a few scenes, will be a way of supporting our own career.”

"What do you mean by 'our own business'? Who's 'us' or 'you'? Who's on your side?"

"Sooner or later."

Cao Jian said with a grin, "I'll just make a cameo appearance as the Persian beauty Dai Qisi in 'The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber,' as a little treat for the fans."

"let me consider it."

I heard that Wang Zuxian only made a cameo appearance as Dai Qisi, with very few scenes.

But is it really going to be on the small screen? Cao Jian doesn't actually discriminate against television dramas; he believes that as long as a television drama is made into a classic, it can be just as entertaining.

While movies may seem sophisticated, television dramas are more down-to-earth.

Soon, the two arrived at Warner Music.

"Mr. Cao, welcome to Warner. How can I help you?"

When the head of Warner Music's provincial branch saw Cao Jian, his eyes showed an urge to win him over.

It's all thanks to Cao Jian's ability to release English songs; his song "MY LOVE" is said to be very popular in Europe and America.

Cao Jian pulled out a videotape he had filmed in Japan from his pocket: "I have something to show you."

"what is this?"

The general manager of Warner looked completely bewildered.

"You'll know when you see it."

It's only been two days since Huang Jiaju was injured, but due to the lack of internet access, many Chinese-speaking fans are still unaware of the news, which has only appeared in Japanese newspapers for the time being.

Of course, Warner Music, the record label of Beyond, knew about it.

Soon, the videotape that Cao Jian had brought was played in the meeting room.

The videotape was very clear, in which Cao Jian questioned the safety hazards, but Fuji TV did not take it seriously at all, kicked Cao Jian out, and said that they would take responsibility for the problem.

Not only the visuals, but even the voices are crystal clear.

"afraid!"

After watching the videotape, the Warner executive slammed his hand on the table.

Unexpectedly, there was such a hidden reason behind Huang Jiaju's injury. Fortunately, it was only a fracture. If it had been a more serious problem, wouldn't Beyond have been finished?
When Wong Ka-kui was injured, Warner Music wanted to seek an explanation from Fuji Television. However, the Japanese police did not take any action, and there was no evidence. Fuji Television did not admit that it was their fault and only said that it was an accident.

Now that we have this videotape, we have evidence. Are we afraid they won't admit it?

He immediately asked, "Mr. Cao, thank you for reminding Huang Jiaju and the others, otherwise I really don't know what would have happened."

"Of course, I like their songs."

"Can you sell us this videotape? Name your price."

"Thirty million NT dollars."

Cao Jian gently extended three fingers.

Thirty million NT dollars is more than ten million Hong Kong dollars. In the 1990s, this amount was a considerable sum for Taiwan.

"so much?"

Although Warner is wealthy, spending so much money on a single videotape still feels a bit expensive.

"Hehe, is it a lot?"

Cao Jian smiled faintly and said, "With this videotape, you can easily claim 100 million yen in damages from Fuji Television. Moreover, this is big news and has a very high value."

"Okay, I agree!"

The head of Warner Taiwan Province thought it made sense; Huang Jiaju's market value was more than 100 million.

Since we have this tape, demanding 100 million in compensation is really not too much.

But Cao Jian continued, "However, I have one condition: this tape cannot be sold to Fuji Television, and I want to sue them and ruin their reputation!"

"This"

After hearing this request, Warner hesitated for a moment, but thought that filing a lawsuit was a good idea. A big lawsuit might just boost Warner Music's reputation.

"Okay, I'll do as you say and sue them."

After finishing his speech, the person in charge looked at the talented and cunning Cao Jian and said with a smile, "Mr. Cao, would you be interested in joining Warner Music? This year, Andy Lau, the Heavenly King, has already switched over. Would you like to consider it?"

"I have no plans to change jobs for the time being."

"No matter what percentage of your record sales are from PolyGram, I'll add five points to it. And your strength is Mandarin songs, so Warner Music is a better fit for your career. What do you say?"

Warner just heard that Cao Jian wanted to sell the videotapes for 30 million, and thought that this young man liked money, so they would try to persuade him with money.

But Cao Jian still shook his head: "Although I like money, it's not as important as feelings."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zuxian, who was standing to the side, was instantly stunned.

Is he really that sentimental?
