341: Arrogance from the entertainment industry

Su Yue looked at the man by the door who wouldn't even show his face and couldn't help but chuckle, "Speak of the devil, and he appears."

Master Tao heard that someone from the entertainment industry had come calling, his face full of disdain, "It's good you're here, help me deal with them."

He made no attempt to hide his expression of disdain for these people and silently walked towards his creative hut.

Su Yue understood that Master Tao had kept him here precisely to handle the people from the entertainment industry.

Regardless, he already had a small reputation outside, and there was no reason to give these people an excuse to criticize him.

Su Yue simply opened the door and stood at the entrance with a smile on his face.

The man in the baseball cap originally thought Master Tao would open the door for them and held out the gift box in his hand with an awkward smile.

When he saw that the person inside was not Master Tao, he subconsciously pulled back the gift box, his face full of surprise, "Who are you?"

People who could come here had basically investigated Master Tao's background and didn't believe he had any descendants.

Su Yue looked at the man in the baseball cap's wary expression and stepped aside, "You must be looking for Master, right?"

Saying that, he moved aside, gesturing for the people at the door to come inside the house.

The man in the baseball cap glanced inside, his brows slightly furrowed, "May I know where Master Tao Qingbai is?"

People in their position were unwilling to waste time on insignificant people like Su Yue.

However, they hadn't expected that Su Yue was actually Master Tao Qingbai's direct disciple.

Su Yue heard them ask such a question and pointed to the sofa inside the house, "Please come in and sit. Master Tao went out for something. You can wait for him inside."

Since these people had been staking out the entrance for a while, they didn't believe Master Tao had left the villa at all.

Furthermore, the villa was exceptionally secluded at the moment. As long as someone entered or exited, they would know immediately.

In just a few seconds, the man in the baseball cap seemed to have thought of something, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes, "You wouldn't be a competitor, would you? Using such tactics is truly despicable."

Su Yue looked at his full wariness towards him and shrugged helplessly, "Master Tao was able to keep me here, so you should know that my relationship with Master Tao is extraordinary, therefore..."

Leaving his sentence unfinished allowed the other party to maintain a certain level of speculation.

As expected, when the man heard that Su Yue might have been left behind by Master Tao Qingbai to receive them, he didn't dare to be negligent and placed the gift box on the table.

Since the few people had arrived, Su Yue hadn't even offered them a glass of water, making them feel slighted.

The man glanced in Su Yue's direction, "We have brought sufficient sincerity. Shouldn't you show us some sincerity as well, at least pour us a glass of water?"

The agent beside the man nodded repeatedly, "That's right, you wouldn't even lack the qualification to pour water, would you?"

Su Yue heard their subtle hints to remind him and shrugged indifferently, "Let's get straight to the point, what do you need from Master Tao?"

Saying that, he sat down in front of the few people, wanting to see what they had to say.

The agent looked at Su Yue, who seemed ready to negotiate with them, and couldn't help but size him up, wondering whether or not to reveal his identity.

At the same time, Su Yue had already scanned the identity of the man in front of him.

[Name: Wang Xing]

[Age: 24 years old]

[Gender: Male]

[Height: 167cm]

[Currently serving as an artist for Jiahua Entertainment Media Company]

...

A series of information appeared in Su Yue's mind, giving him a complete understanding of the man in front of him.

If he wanted to search, he could probably even find out when Wang Xing did something bad at a young age.

At the same time, Wang Xing and his agent discussed it for a bit and placed the document in their hands on the table, "Could you tell us your identity?"

In their opinion, since Su Yue could represent Master Tao, they believed their relationship must be extraordinary.

Su Yue watched the two people toss the document in front of him, ignored them, and picked up the document from the table.

Just from the content of the document, it was clear that the purpose of their visit was to hope that Master Tao would provide some ceramics for them to auction.

What people in the entertainment industry worried about most was face. As long as they could get Master Tao Qingbai's ceramics, they believed they could turn the tables.

Unfortunately, Master Tao Qingbai had long seen through their scheme and had no intention of dealing with them at all.

Su Yue placed the document back in front of the two people and shook his head, "Take your document back. I believe Master Tao would not allow you to auction his things."

Without saying anything further, he stood up and casually opened the main door.

What Master Tao Qingbai found inconvenient to do, Su Yue handled with ease, leaving them with no way to stop him.

Wang Xing watched Su Yue intending to drive him away, his face full of surprise, unable to believe that Su Yue meant to kick him out.

Wang Xing, his face ashen, walked up to Su Yue and pointed at himself, "Do you know who you're talking to?"

Su Yue nodded with a light chuckle, "I merely represent Master Tao. I hope you won't come looking for him again in the future."

Perhaps because they had evidence of Master Tao Qingbai being in the villa, they started shouting loudly towards the inside, "Master Tao, I hope you can seriously consider this and not bring about unbearable consequences for yourself due to a moment of impulse."

Su Yue originally didn't plan to trouble Wang Xing, feeling that driving them away was already the greatest kindness to them.

Now, Wang Xing's subtle threat made him unable to hold back any longer.

Su Yue stepped in front of Wang Xing, his gaze sharp, his tone extremely serious, "Don't forget how your last hit drama came about."

According to the information transmitted by the System, Wang Xing's role in the hit drama was obtained through some small tricks.

They thought no one outside knew about such things, but now that Su Yue had reminded them, the two instinctively exchanged glances.

Since Wang Xing and the agent couldn't figure out Su Yue's background, they silently left the villa entrance.

Just as they left, Master Tao Qingbai finally walked out from inside, "These people really think I'm afraid of them. They should take a look at their own status."

Strictly speaking, the two were not from the same circle at all.

Even if Wang Xing had the intention of dealing with them, he would likely need to spend a certain amount of time.

Su Yue listened to Master Tao Qingbai's muttering and burst out laughing, "Don't let them spoil our mood. Show me the latest ceramics you've made."

Now, Su Yue's status was completely different from before. Even he was interested in ceramics, which was enough to show how remarkable Master Tao Qingbai's ceramics were.

Just as the two were about to enter the backyard, an untimely sound came from the television.

Both of them simultaneously looked towards the television and found that information about Master Tao Qingbai's ceramic auction was being broadcast.

Su Yue couldn't help but glance at Master Tao Qingbai, "Master, could it be that you auctioned off your ceramics without telling me?"

Master Tao Qingbai listened to Su Yue's voice and shook his head repeatedly, "How could that be? If I really intended to auction ceramics, do you think I would refuse those people from the entertainment industry?"

Strictly speaking, although people in the entertainment industry may lack rules, they are the wealthiest.

Instead of spending time holding an auction, it would be better to sell the ceramics to these people in the entertainment industry.

Su Yue looked at Master Tao Qingbai's surprised expression and understood that the auction house matter must be fake.

Originally, Su Yue didn't plan to pay attention to such news, but who knew that the address mentioned later caught his attention.

He glanced at the auction address and couldn't help but mutter, "This address seems to be Muxin Hotel."

They had just injected capital into the parent company of Muxin Hotel, and who knew they would pull something like this.

Su Yue originally intended to follow Master Tao Qingbai to the backyard to take a look, but now he didn't even have that thought.

As Su Yue's Master, Master Tao Qingbai had already noticed that something was off with Su Yue and leaned towards him, "Does this hotel have something to do with you?"

Su Yue heard Master Tao Qingbai's voice and subconsciously wanted to hide his information.

Unfortunately, he knew he couldn't do such a thing and gave a wry smile, "To be honest, this hotel is considered one of our investments."

If people outside knew that the items auctioned at Muxin Hotel were fakes, the stock price of Muxin Hotel would surely plummet.

Moreover, Su Yue felt that this matter should not be Yu Qing's and Mu Ruguang's decision, as they wouldn't possibly do such a thing rashly.

Master Tao Qingbai saw that Su Yue subtly had the intention of going to check and pointed towards the backyard, "Come with me, some matters cannot be rushed."

He understood that Master Tao Qingbai definitely had some information he wanted to tell him, so he obediently followed behind him and stood in front of the ceramics.

In his impression, the ceramics made by his Master were all masterpieces of craftsmanship.

Seeing them now, his face was full of shock, "I didn't expect it, Master's craftsmanship is even more refined now."

Master Tao Qingbai didn't pay attention to Su Yue's compliment and picked up one of the ceramic jars, "These ceramics have something in common. See if you can find it."

Any Master's work has imitations outside. He planned to use this time to teach Su Yue how to identify ceramics.

Otherwise, when he got to the auction house, it was very likely that he wouldn't be able to distinguish which ceramics were his work.

Su Yue walked up to the ceramic jars and carefully examined their exteriors, finding that all the ceramic jars were identical.

Without guidance from someone outside, there would be no way to distinguish the genuine pieces inside.

Master Tao Qingbai watched Su Yue analyze the ceramic jars for a long time and smiled helplessly, "Even my own disciple can't distinguish them. It's too embarrassing to say."

Perhaps because he was worried that Su Yue would waste time, he moved closer to the ceramic jar, "Come over and take a look, I'll teach you this one time."

Soon, he placed the bottom of the ceramic jar in front of Su Yue, "To distinguish authenticity, we are accustomed to putting a hidden watermark seal on the bottom. This is my seal."

After Su Yue's observation, he found that there was a faint seal at the bottom of each ceramic jar.

Without Master Tao Qingbai's confirmation, no one would likely discover such a thing.

Now that Su Yue had mastered his exclusive ceramic seal, he burst out laughing, "I cannot let anyone harm Master's reputation, so I must participate in this auction."

Although he was on vacation, encountering such a matter still required him to go and check, lest something happen.

Master Tao Qingbai looked at Su Yue's righteous appearance and couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Clearly you're worried about the stock price plummeting, and only you can talk about this matter in such a grand and justifiable manner."

Without giving Master Tao Qingbai a chance to respond, Su Yue had already arrived at the villa entrance and checked the time, "I'll visit you again when I have time. If those people from the entertainment industry bother you again, let me handle it."

Now, Yuantu Investment Company already had a certain reputation.

As long as they spread the word about dealing with an artist, no company would dare to re-employ such an artist.

Master Tao Qingbai understood the power of Yuantu Investment Company and waved his hand, "Come over and cook a few meals for this old man when you have time. Have a safe journey."

The two chatted about various things at the entrance and only came out of the villa after half an hour.

Just as Su Yue's car left, two dark figures emerged from the roadside, their faces ashen, "I knew that old geezer was inside."

Although Master Tao Qingbai was considered a top magnate in the ceramics world, people in the entertainment industry had their arrogance.

In their eyes, as long as they had money in their hands, they could buy anything.

The agent watched Wang Xing subtly showing an intention to deal with Su Yue and couldn't help but remind him, "I think this matter needs to be carefully considered. That person's status just now is probably not low."

Since the two of them didn't have a facial recognition database, they couldn't temporarily discern Su Yue's capabilities.

Wang Xing listened to the agent say this, his face full of disdain, "Let's attend the auction first, and we'll deal with them when we have a chance later."

Afterwards, the two didn't waste any time and also followed Su Yue's car.

At the same time, Su Yue thought about it in the car and dialed Lan Zijun's number.

Since it was working hours, Lan Zijun's phone was answered almost instantly.

Soon, Lan Zijun's teasing voice came from the phone, "How is it? Having fun playing outside on vacation?"

Su Yue wasn't in the mood to joke around with Lan Zijun on the phone and told her what he knew.

When Lan Zijun learned that Muxin Hotel was holding such an auction, her brows furrowed slightly, "What did you say? Fakes?"

If Muxin Hotel could acquire genuine items, this auction could potentially significantly boost Muxin Hotel's stock price.

However, the items they had brought this time were genuine fakes, which gave Lan Zijun a slight sense of foreboding.

In just a few seconds, Lan Zijun made a decision, "You discreetly investigate the auction house. I'll contact Mu Ruguang now to see what they mean by this."

Muxin Hotel is a chain hotel, and what its subsidiary hotels are doing is only known by each respective hotel's
