Huayu is here for you

Chapter 119 Cai Yinong's Helplessness

While Lin Yu was busy filming "The Witch", the outside world was already in an uproar!

Because Lin Yu's "Twilight" has already released its final box office results, it has been almost completely pulled from theaters everywhere except for a few overseas theaters. The box office is $4.231 million, which is about $20 million more than Lin Yu's previous work. Moreover, it will be released in China soon.

Taking advantage of Lin Yu's fame and the lingering box office success of "Twilight" overseas, Han Sanping also promoted "The Martian," which was still showing in North America. He promoted "Twilight" to the skies through various film interview programs, variety shows, and other promotional channels, seemingly aiming to dominate the entire second half of the year.

For a moment, Lin Yu suddenly felt as if he were no longer in the martial arts world, but his legend still lingered there.

"Hehe—Sisi, Chairman Han is making quite a splash!"

On the set of "The Witch," while everyone was resting and preparing for dinner, Lin Yu held up two invitations and smiled at Miss Liu, saying, "Hmm? Let me see!" Miss Liu immediately leaned her head over.

"Wow—Does Chairman Han want me to go with you?"

"What else can we do? The invitation has already been sent over." Lin Yu laughed, "Hehe—Senior brother, shall we go and support him?"

Listening to Miss Liu's words, Lin Yu also fell into deep thought. Unlike Han Sanping, Lin Yu did not think that this movie could achieve any good results in China. After all, this kind of movie is purely like a Western idol drama. Just look at the box office in his previous life. It didn't make any waves at all.

However, we can't ignore Lao Han's face. After all, he has basically evolved into the notorious bandit leader of the domestic film and television industry. It wouldn't be right not to give him face.

Lin Yu is now worried about one thing: now that he's made such a big fuss, what will Lao Han's expression be after the movie's domestic box office results come out? Will he not even be able to recoup the marketing costs? Will he be so angry that he smashes a cup?

"I'll go, but I'll let him know beforehand. This time, I'm just going through the motions; don't expect me to do any publicity for him."

"Hehe—okay!"

At the new Starlight building, a black sedan slowly drove into Starlight's underground parking lot.

Today is the last day for Xiao Ou to negotiate the contract with Cai Yinong. The two sides have been discussing the issue of equity ratio in Sugar Man Company for several months.

A few days ago, Xiao Ou gave Cai Yinong a final deadline. If they couldn't reach an agreement today, she would consider persuading Lin Yu to give up on Tangren. After all, nowadays, if Xingguang wanted to acquire any company like Tangren, it wouldn't be as troublesome as it is now.

You're saying Starlight is taking advantage of our misfortune? Are you kidding me? In business, who cares about that?

"President Cai, you've been thinking about this for so long, it's time to give me an answer. Besides, Starlight doesn't mean to force you to sign a contract. If you and Director Li don't agree, Starlight will definitely not force you, just find another company."

But you've been stringing us along, neither agreeing nor refusing. Are you playing with Starlight? Let me tell you beforehand, I'm not as kind-hearted as Mr. Lin—not easy to talk to. You have to give me an answer today, whether it's a success or a failure—I don't have the energy to play games with you anymore.”

In the Starlight Conference Room, Cai Yinong looked at Xiao Ou, who was slowly becoming more aggressive, and felt a mix of emotions. Who would have thought that just a few years ago she was an ordinary person who had accomplished nothing, but now she had suddenly gained power and become a strong woman that even she had to treat with respect? It really is true that fate plays tricks on people!

"Xiao Ou, can't you really give me a few more days?" Cai Yinong said, sounding somewhat weak.

Seeing that she was still hesitant, Xiao Ou smiled inwardly. "President Cai, as I said, today is the deadline. Besides—actually, it doesn't matter to me whether you sign or not. There are so many companies that can produce TV dramas, it doesn't matter if you do or not."

"this--"

Cai Yinong actually wanted to sign the contract. After all, although her shares would decrease after signing, her savings would increase! Moreover, she would have the support of Lin Yu, which would be much easier than her and Li Guoli struggling together.

But she just couldn't get over it. Even though Li Guoli had agreed, she still couldn't let go of the power she held. Besides, she knew about Liu Yifei's relationship with Lin Yu, and she didn't know if Liu Yifei could forgive her for the dirty things she had done in the past.

Once she signs the contract, her status will instantly be directly subordinate to Liu Yifei's! She is genuinely unwilling to see her beloved working class one day being trampled on by Liu Yifei.

But what can they do if they don't sign? Although Sugarman is like a centipede that's not dead yet, it's still in a state of half-dead, so joining Starlight is the best option for Sugarman right now.

"I'll sign! But Xiao Ou, I have to ask you one more time, is Lin Yu really not going to interfere with the operation of Tangren?"

After hearing that Cai Yinong had agreed to sign the contract, Xiao Ou finally smiled.

"As long as it's not a matter of principle, Mr. Lin won't interfere with your management of Sugar Man. After all, he's a boss with a human touch, and he appreciates you for that. But Sugar Man's limitations are still too severe."

Furthermore, you're inflexible and intend to continue using the old methods inherited from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Times have changed, Mr. Tsai! To be honest, without Mr. Lin's intervention, I'm not optimistic about your future development.

As Cai Yinong listened to Xiao Ou's words and looked at the unassuming woman in front of her, she suddenly felt a little lost. She considered herself to be a strong woman, but now—she clearly felt that she was overshadowed in terms of aura, and the woman in front of her had suddenly been so domineering and authoritative that she didn't even dare to look directly at her.

"Okay, I believe him."

After speaking, Cai Yinong neatly signed her name and pressed her fingerprint on the contract. "Old Li has something to do today, he'll come to sign later, but he already agreed when I arrived, so don't worry."

Xiao Ou first picked up the contract and read it carefully before extending her right hand to Cai Yinong.

"Mr. Cai, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"

Cai Yinong looked at Xiao Ou's outstretched right hand, smiled wryly, and then stood up and shook hands with her tightly.

"Hehe, I hope we can both get what we want!"
