Huayu Entertainment: The Birth of a Succubus Top Star

Chen Daoming didn't say anything more about Gu Zhiyan's refusal, only saying, "Fine, just let me know if you need anything."

In Chen Daoming's eyes, Gu Zhiyan was not the kind of person who was arrogant and ignorant. Judging from his calm and composed appearance, he was obviously confident.

Considering that Gu Zhiyan came from one of the top universities in the country, Chen Daoming shook his head. Wang Er was probably going to run into a brick wall this time.

This guy is used to being arrogant and domineering; he's lost even the most basic intelligence.

As Chen Daoming had predicted, things unfolded much more dramatically than he had anticipated.

First, the film project invested in by the Wang brothers' company was blocked from review. The specific reasons were unclear, but it was simply non-compliant, so they were told to fix it first.

If this movie can't be released, we'll lose everything.

Subsequently, the Wang brothers were subject to administrative penalties by the China Securities Regulatory Commission and other regulatory agencies for illegal reduction of their shareholdings, failure to cease trading and fulfill information disclosure obligations when the change in equity reached 5%, and illegal cash-out.

As soon as the relevant department issued the announcement, the stock of the Wang brothers' company plummeted, further exacerbating the already sluggish stock price.

Market supervision and management, industry and commerce, fire protection and other departments began to visit the site in turn.

In just two days, the situation changed dramatically.

The atmosphere in the chairman's office of the Wang brothers' company was extremely oppressive at this moment.

Wang Ada was looking at Wang A'er with a gloomy expression.

If this guy weren't my own brother, I'd strangle him with my own hands.

"You bastard, can't you at least find out who the other person is before you cause them trouble?"

"Brother, he's just a minor celebrity, who would have thought..."

At this moment, Wang Er felt extremely regretful, but he still habitually tried to defend himself first.

"A nobody? A top-tier star, the leading figure of the new generation, a box office king with billions, and you think he's just a nobody? Even if he really doesn't have any connections, someone like him isn't someone you can just mess with!"

"Do you realize how much vested interest he's involved in? Which of the stakeholders would allow you to act recklessly?"

Wang Er muttered to himself, "I just didn't think of that many things."

Wang Ada was so angry his head was throbbing. He directly said to Wang A'er angrily, "You never even considered it! You've been bullying people in the industry for so many years, you've long lost your sense of respect, you think you can control everything, you've long forgotten how great the talents in the entertainment industry are, you're simply ignorant of your own limitations!"

Wang A'da's words reminded Wang A'er of the question Gu Zhiyan had asked him that day: "Which 'sky' are you talking about?"

Now he finally understood what the other person meant, but it seemed to be too late.

"Brother, it's too late to say anything now. Let's think of a solution first. What did the person upstairs say?"

"What can we say? There's no other way but to quickly bow our heads and admit our mistakes. We can accept whatever punishment or beatings they want and beg for their forgiveness."

Speaking of this, Wang Ada looked helpless. He had used all the connections he could and asked everyone he could, but it was all in vain.

Some people who used to call him brother would not even answer his phone or see him, avoiding him like the plague.

Seeing this, Wang Ada sensed something was wrong and quickly went to find the big shot behind him, but unfortunately, he was disappointed.

Although the other party agreed to help mediate, they also bluntly told him that he had offended someone he shouldn't have. The other party had only made a slight move so far, and things hadn't gotten out of control yet. The best course of action now was to apologize and admit his mistake.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ada felt a chill run down his spine and decisively decided to back down.

"Brother, do we really have to bow down and admit our mistake to that kid?" Wang Er asked, looking reluctant.

"Yes, we have to do it this way. There's no other choice, or we brothers will both be finished." Wang Ada's tone left no room for argument.

Wang Er: I regret it so much. I should have never provoked that brat Gu Zhiyan.

He only thought he had messed with the wrong person and never thought there was anything wrong with what he did.

That's how the world is: the strong prey on the weak, and the mighty are respected!

……

Wang Er admitted defeat, and the turn of events surprised many people.

That's incredibly fast! Only two days!

Moreover, the losing side didn't think the same way they did.

What the hell is going on?

Many people were unaware of the situation and didn't understand the inside story, but the result was obvious: Gu Zhiyan won, and Gu Zhiyan was not someone to be trifled with!

Chen Daoming had guessed that Gu Zhiyan was not someone to be trifled with, and that Wang Er might be in for a tough time, but he hadn't expected the power behind him to be so great. He thought it would take at least a while to pull him along.

At first, he was planning to mediate between Gu Zhiyan and Wang Er, but now he has to plead for Wang Er.

Chen Daoming shook his head self-deprecatingly. There was nothing he could do; once you're in the world of martial arts, you're not in control of your own destiny. He couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and find Gu Zhiyan.

"Xiao Gu, Wang Er is waiting outside the film set. He wants to see you and apologize. Do you want to see him?"

"Uncle Ming, I won't see him. Let him go back."

Gu Zhiyan wasn't surprised that Chen Daoming would step in to mediate.

"Xiao Gu, why don't we meet him? He's really showing a lot of sincerity this time..."

Chen Daoming then proceeded to explain the compensation terms offered by Wang Er.

Gu Zhiyan knew immediately that the other party had indeed gone to great lengths, but he didn't need it.

What kind of big-budget movie lead role is this? By the way, does the Wong Brothers company have any decent movies to show for it?

"Uncle Ming, I won't take these things he brought out, and I don't want to see him either, but for your sake, let's leave it at that."

"Well, when I say 'stop here,' I mean I won't get involved again. But I can't control what's already happened, nor do I have the ability to do so. As for illegal and irregular matters, the country's laws and regulations will take care of them."

It's not easy to bring down a listed media company, an industry giant. Gu Zhiyan didn't have the intention or the energy to waste on this.

He had already achieved his goal by hurting the other party and making them afraid.

Another point is that the cultural industry is a relatively sensitive industry.

The Wang brothers and their group, in particular, have a somewhat sensitive identity, or more accurately, a sensitive "ZU group".

It's unrealistic to condemn them outright. These people are used to making a scene, threatening suicide, and readily labeling you as someone who has damaged something.

Even a cornered dog will jump over a wall; Gu Zhiyan didn't want to get herself into trouble.

"Alright, that's enough. I'll pass your words on to Wang Er right away."

Hearing Gu Zhiyan say this, Chen Daoming breathed a sigh of relief.

The result is already quite good; he has managed to get things done.

Gu Zhiyan was indeed no ordinary person; he remained completely unmoved by such a huge benefit.

With connections, ability, a clear mind, and a resilient spirit...

This child is destined for greatness!
