Chapter 1219: Unethical Merging

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Headquarters of Qincheng Entertainment.

Conference room.

Song Qincheng was sitting at the chairman seat, dressed in a white shirt paired with a black blazer, looking very commanding and authoritative and very much like a high-handed chairwoman!

These temperaments were perhaps innate. She was, after all Wu Zetian, a Super Chairwoman who ruled Dynasty Tang in her previous life!

Standing behind her were NeZha, Hong Hai’er, Wenyuan and Gordon who had all come to keep up appearances.

NeZha and Hong Hai’er did not look too good, their clothes soiled as if they had just been fighting.

Wenyuan looked slightly better, though not as discomposed, and the signs were obvious of her involvement in a fight – furrowed brows and a nettled expression.

Gordon, on the other hand, had just arrived, unaware of what had just happened. All he knew was what Old Wang told him, that he was there to make his presence known, not to hurt anyone.

Well, that was an awkward request.

As the leader of the Blood Descendants, born with flaxen hair and golden wings, crimson eyes and golden pupils, and with Celestial Cultivation, Gordon was looking really cool! Not being allowed to fight would make Gordon look like a sad, old man.

Song Qincheng was a little frustrated. The people she wanted to borrow had to have the likes of Huo Yuanba and Wu Aofeng whose presence itself were enough to make their enemies tremble.

But right now, it seemed that Gordon had come for nothing. Song Qincheng had to do all the work herself.

“Chairman Lu!” Song Qincheng looked straight ahead, her tone resolute, “There’s an old saying that says a trade should always end in peace! Although I refused your merger and acquisition, it doesn’t give you the right to beat up three of my most popular artists! Don’t say that I didn’t warn you but these 3 already have over tens of thousands of fans! These are not people you want to provoke. If you do, I’m afraid it won’t end well for you!”

There were three people at the table.

One of them was Chairman Lu, Lu Juji.

This dimwit was the eldest son of Hong Kong’s millionaire Lu Zhiqiao, and the heir to the Lu Organization.

Some time ago, Lu Juji suddenly showed up and expressed his desire to buy Qincheng Entertainment and incorporate it into the mainland’s entertainment circle.

The sum he offered was not low either, 20 billion RMB for 50% of the Qincheng Entertainment’s share – twice the amount Chen Xiaobei had originally paid for!

But Qincheng Entertainment was the brainchild of Chen Xiaobei and Song Qinchen, which was why the offer was turned down in the first place.

Lu Juji responded to the rejection like burrs that could not be shaken off. His pestering was a pain in the ass for Song Qincheng.

But this was nothing uncommon in the world of business. So, Song Qincheng did not take any drastic measures.

The three troublemakers, led by Wenyuan, could not take it anymore.

Wenyuan was an insubordinate mischief-maker, that sometimes even Chen Xiaobei himself could not restrain. On the other hand, Hong Hai’er was a doughty little demon.

These two troublemakers dragged NeZha into their ploy, making him go to Lu Juji to put a stop to his disturbances the night before.

Their plan was to teach Lu Jiju a lesson. But they were knocked out by 2 of Lu Juji’s middle stage Qi refining cultivated bodyguards. They had just achieve early phase of Qi refining cultivation with 5,000 combat power but were unfortunately locked up in a hotel room for the night, and were only sent back to Qincheng Entertainment just now.

“Chairman Song! You have a glib tongue!” Lu Juji narrowed his eyes, as he spoke in garbled Mandarin, “They were the ones who came to attack me! Why are my men being blamed for hitting them? In fact, my men were light-handed with them, or these three would’ve ended up in the hospital!”

As Lu Juji said this, the two bodyguards standing next to him looked pleased. “Oh, it’s still considered light-handed if they ended up in the hospital! If we really did give all we got, these three runts would be dead already!”

“You are the runt! You whole family is made up of runts!”

Wanyuan shook her fists.

This girl was the most famous female celebrity of Qincheng Entertainment, and her fans saw her as a goddess. But right now, she was a tough chick, hellbent on giving the two conceited bodyguards a piece of her mind.

“Wanyuan, stop talking!” said Song Qincheng with a frown.

Considering that circumstances had gotten worse, it was not a wise move to make any reckless move.

“Okay…”

Wanyuan pouted, but was fully obedient to Song Qincheng.

“Chairman Song! The three of them came to assault me but thankfully my bodyguards protected me! Instead of going to the police, I sent them back to you. I think that’s more than enough of benevolence from my end, don’t you think?”

Lu Juji looked squarely at Song Qincheng.

“Of course, how could an affluent man like yourself stoop down to the level of these three kids?”

“Chairman Song, you’re really wise but I won’t fall for your trick! Of course, I will! I didn’t report them because I want to make a seperate deal with you!” Lu Jiju smiled. “If you agree to my proposal for merger, and have Qincheng Entertainment come under the roof of Lu, I guarantee that the three of them will become superstars! Their fame will continue to grow!” Lu Jiju said, “But if you refuse my offer, then I cannot promise you what may happen in the future!”

“Chairman Lu! Are you blackmailing me?”

Song Qincheng’s glare turned icy.

“Yes, I am!” Lu Jiju said haughtily, “I am indeed threatening you! I must have Qincheng Entertainment! I will do whatever it takes!”

“Alright, since this is how you want to play, I’ll play this game with you!”

Song Qincheng raised her hand and pointed at the direction of the door, “But right now, please get out of my company! You’re not welcomed here!”

“Hehehe…” Lu Jiju broke out into laughter. “Let me say one more thing. Then you can tell me whether I am welcome here or not!”

Song Qingcheng had an inkling that she would not like this, “Go ahead then!”

“My dash recorder documented the three of them attacking the car. If you don’t agree to my terms, I will sue the three of them and make this issue public! I can destroy their reputation in the entertainment world!”

“You…”

Song Qincheng could feel panic rising inside of her.

Film stars are public figures, news like this would be magnified. With the addition of malicious speculations and slanders, even a megastar would be completely wrecked!

With Lu Jiju’s status and position, and the evidence he had in hand, it would be unexacting to destroy Wanyuan and the others’ careers!

Song Qincheng was up against the wall.

If she protected Wanyuan and the rest, she would have to lose Qincheng Entertainment; if she protected Qincheng Entertainment instead, she would lose Wanyuan and the others.

Whichever option she choose, Song Qincheng would have to suffer a loss.

“This merger –” Chen Xiaobei suddenly pushed the door to the meeting room open. “I approve it!”
