Chapter 532 An Indirect Attack
“I don’t know what he looks like because he had been wearing a black eyepatch, but the chin he showed seems to indicate that he has good teeth and should not be ugly. As for his age...”
After hesitating for a moment, Mosquito said with a little uncertainty, “He should be between 20 and 30. I think he is 27 to 28 at most.”
“What? He is only 27 to 28?” Luo Zhicheng and Wei Biaobiao exclaimed in unison.
“Uh...he is old or young? Do you think what age is suitable? Or let me think about it carefully.”
Mosquito felt quite guilty and muttered inwardly, “Xiaoyao, Xiaoyao, don’t blame me, your sister, for not helping you. I am being interviewed in your place.”
“What do you mean by saying ‘Do we think what age is suitable’? Do you think how old he is? Just tell the truth.”
Wei Biaobiao became angry. How could she be so perfunctory? She really didn’t take the brother seriously.
“Then I’ll tell the truth! His figure suggests that he is very young. I think he is only in his early 20s. His voice suggests that he is not old and is no more than 30 at most. Well, it is almost so,” Mosquito thought hard for a long time and said.
Wei Biaobiao did not know whether to laugh or cry and rolled his eyes. “After speaking for a long time, you’ve just talked nonsense.”
“Brother Biao, look at your attitude! Don’t you know you’ve scared my wife? My wife doesn’t owe you anything, and she is pregnant. If you want to know the truth, call your sister and ask her! Darling, don’t be afraid because your husband is here.”
Huzi began showing off his love of his wife shamelessly, making Mosquito feel so sweet in the heart that she smiled sweetly and snuggled up against his chest.
“Get lost! Don’t show off your love in front of me, and let me call Xiaoyao.”
Wei Biaobiao felt speechless. “The couple have the same character, and they all have evil thoughts.”
“Xiaoyao, I’m your brother,” Wei Biaobiao called Xiaoyao directly.
“Nonsense, I know. I have your name on my phone. If you are not my brother, can you be my father?”
Xiaoyao seemed not happy and snapped, so that Wei Biaobiao could not utter a word for a long time.
Luo Zhicheng was very anxious beside him and waved his hand. “Cut to the chase, cut to the chase.”
“Which idiot is beside you? What nonsense is he talking?”
Unexpectedly, Xiaoyao had very sharp ears and asked straight away, making Luo Zhicheng quite distressed.
Mosquito and Huzi covered their mouths and tittered. “Xiaoyao is typically in her menstrual period! She has it for several days every month.”
Wei Biaobiao felt ashamed, coughed twice, and said, “Let me ask you something. How old is your boyfriend?”
“Which boyfriend? So many men pursue me, and my male friends are even seen everywhere.”
Xiaoyao was nervous. “Fuck, has the guy Wei Biaobiao been bought by my father, hoping to collect information?” Immediately, she boasted.
“The one I’m saying is the Black Masked Man.”
Wei Biaobiao was quite sullen.
“Uh...”
Xiaoyao kept silent for a long while and then asked gingerly, “Brother, tell me the truth. Is our father eavesdropping beside you?”
“What are you talking about? No, those who are beside me are Mosquito, Huzi, and a few other friends.”
Wei Biaobiao felt very depressed. “I’m so worried about this sister.”
“Mosquito? Huzi? Why are you together?”
Xiaoyao felt at ease and raised her voice to a high pitch immediately.
“It is because of Ding Ning. Someone provoked him today, and we are here to help vent his anger, so we are here together,” Wei Biaobiao explained, trying to be patient.
“Who was so bold to provoke my brother-in-law? What happened? Did he suffer losses? Tell me right now, or I’ll go back right away and kill his whole family...”
Wei Biaobiao covered the receiver with his hand, opened his mouth, and sadly skewed his head to pass the mobile phone to Mosquito. “You talk with her. I’m so depressed, and she and I don’t share the same interest.”
“Did you have a splendid life in Ninghai? How is it? Did you miss me, your sister?”
As soon as Mosquito received the phone, the two of them began to chat noisily and happily, and Mosquito reported everything that happened from the time she and Huzi returned to Yan Jing, and the two families began to talk about their marriage to today. The three men gazed at one another in speechless dismay beside her. After talking for almost an hour, Mosquito kissed the phone with a smile. “Let’s call it a day, darling, bye!”
“How about it? How about it? Did you get the information? How old is the Black Masked Man?” Wei Biaobiao couldn’t wait to ask.
Mosquito flapped her big, blank eyes and said very innocently, “I forgot to ask.”
“Holy crap!”
The three men gave a rude remark in unison, looking desperate.
Wei Biaobiao took the phone and said angrily, “You really didn’t ask anything meaningful. Let me call her again.”
“Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is power off, please...”
Hearing the busy tone from the receiver, Wei Biaobiao looked at the mobile phone in a daze. “I redialed. That’s right, but why was the phone turned off?”
Mosquito looked at him guiltily and said weakly, “Uh, I forgot to tell you that Xiaoyao said just now that her phone ran out of power and hung up. Otherwise, we would have chatted with the expense of five more Shenzhou currency.”
Wei Biaobiao supported his forehead with one hand and groaned in pain. “What the fuck is this!”
Luo Zhicheng moved his lips but could not say a word, and suddenly wished to shout.
Wearing a loving expression, Huzi helped Mosquito stand up. “You must be tired, darling? You are heavy with child, and it’s not good to sit for too long. Go, let’s go and take a walk.”
“Hmm!”
Mosquito gave a happy smile, allowing him to support her to hobble away, as if she had been pregnant for 7 or 8 months, ready to give birth.
After turning around, they had a sly smile of having carried out a plot in an angle where Wei Biaobiao and his companion could not see their expressions. “Want to get the exact details of Xiaoyao? No way! We are the best brothers and sisters.”
While Ding Ning was busy treating his patients free of charge, Ouyang Tianhua, executive president of Tiangong Entertainment in Ninghai, was terribly worried.
As the executive president picked up by Bai Qing himself, he had been known as a person who was sophisticated and handled affairs in quite prudent manners. With the Bai Family as his backer, he had never feared anyone.
But he had a serious headache this time. Bai Qing would deal with the pressure from the superior department, and he did not worry about it.
But in the business world, it’s not that if you have a powerful background, you will win. To put it bluntly, if you can’t afford to provoke someone, you can avoid meeting him, right?
Especially in the entertainment industry, there are so many tricks. If others don’t confront you with toughness and only resist indirectly, it will give you a serious headache.
For example, at this moment, the directors of Yan Jing TV Station and Mango Satellite TV called Ouyang Tianhua respectively, hoping that he could persuade the Huan-Le Combo and Pan Xiangyun to continue to participate in the competition.
As a successful businessman, Ouyang Tianhua tried not to offend them but expressed his refusal under the premise of resolutely implementing Bai Qing’s order.
The two TV station directors were all wily old foxes. No matter how annoyed they were when they were refused, they still acted politely and did not embarrass him.
Before Ouyang Tianhua could get relieved, he received a report from his exasperated subordinate that with various seemingly silly reasons, Yan Jing TV Station and Mango Satellite TV had canceled all the plans of Tiangong Entertainment’s contracted actors and actresses to do entertainment programs on their TV stations.
This time Ouyang Tianhua did not know what to do. This was not a joke. Everyone knew that the entertainment programs of Mango Satellite TV were the most popular among the local TV stations, setting a precedent in history and ranked top among TV stations.
Although Yan Jing TV Station was also a local TV station and its achievements were not as dazzling as Mango TV’s, the status of ordinary TV stations was not comparable to its status because it was the TV station of the Imperial Capital.
Since Tiangong Entertainment offended the two TV stations at a time, the actors and actresses it trained would no longer have the chance to get more exposure by participating in entertainment programs in the future. This was extremely unfavorable for an entertainment company to train newcomers.
Tiangong Entertainment could put pressure on these two directors through its relationships, but it was more practical to ask help from the direct leaders than from the senior leaders. The directors could provide 1,000 fair reasons why the actors and actresses of Tiangong Entertainment were not suitable for attending their entertainment programs. Surely, they would not give the company an excuse to get angry.
They would say, “I’m not saying that your staff won’t be in our programs in the future, but now it is really not suitable! If there is a chance in the future, we can cooperate again.” They could refuse the company only with the trick of putting off this matter, and the company could not go and use its relations to fire the two directors only for this small matter. Even if they were fired, it would be useless because Tiangong Entertainment had offended the whole TV stations.
Besides, ostensibly, it seemed to be the fault of Tiangong Entertainment, and the accusation should be, “The Campus-star Competition is a program co-hosted by the two TV stations and sponsored by the three entertainment companies. Does it have any relations with Tiangong Entertainment? But your company just took away the most popular participants at the most critical moment. This move was so dirty.
“Don’t talk about the excuses of dirty inside stories, hidden rules, and things of this sort! Whether these things are aboveboard or not, let’s put them aside, and let me ask you if Tiangong Entertainment is such a clean company without dirty actions?”
Hidden rules were the conventional potential rules in the industry, but this action of Tiangong Entertainment was breaking the game rules of the whole industry! If this news were spread, Tiangong Entertainment would be the target of public criticism and would be rejected by all its peers.
The directors of the two TV stations handled this matter perfectly. They expressed their dissatisfaction in such an indirect and aggrieved manner, but they had not gone to extremes and had left room for maneuver, for they only informed the actors and actresses that their entertainment programs had been canceled but did not let it go public, so there was still room for maneuver. Although the plan was canceled, it could be restarted, and they wanted to see if Tiangong Entertainment would deal with this problem properly. Anyway, they did not really want to mess the thing up.
In fact, the TV stations were also depressed. They were a typical example of getting hurt without doing anything wrong. The Campus-star Competition had been aired for several episodes, and they had invested a lot of manpower and material resources, and even the competition had entered the semi-finals.
So, the TV stations would say, “The terrible fact is that two of the six groups of participants have been taken away only because you entertainment companies fought over the small matter of hidden rules, but how will we shoot the rest of the program? How will we explain this to the audience? This is an action of ruining the images of our TV stations, isn’t it?”
So, Ouyang Tianhua had a serious headache at this moment. The most frightening thing about opening an entertainment company is destroying its relationship with TV stations. Those superstars are famous enough, so they don’t have to work with TV stations, but when a company goes to train newcomers and the second- and third-class stars, how can anyone of them improve their exposure without the cooperation with TV stations?
Once the indirect attack was launched, Ouyang Tianhua could not rest assured anymore. This was a society of human relationships. Everyone was usually kind to each other, but when their relationships went bad, it would be almost impossible for Tiangong Entertainment to grow and expand in the entertainment industry in the future.
He wanted to follow Bai Qing’s order, but he could not bear the consequences, so he could only call his boss and report the current situation to him, letting them make the decision.
When receiving the call, Bai Qing was silent for a while. When he gave Ding Ning his promise at that time, he did not think that much and only thought about repairing his relationship with Ding Ning, but when he thought about it carefully, he knew this was indeed a big problem.
This seemed to be very simple: This was only a rivalry between Tiangong Entertainment and the three entertainment companies, which he did not take so seriously, but the problem was that the result of this action was really not kind, an action that harmed the two TV stations! No wonder they were so annoyed.
“All right, I see. Wait for my call!”
After hanging up, Bai Qing entered the thinking mode. “How can this matter be resolved to satisfy both sides?”
