3: The show begins
When he opened his eyes again, it was already noon the next day.
Chen Tianming looked at Luo Yanyun, whose hair was disheveled on the pillow.
He casually played with her beautiful hair, sniffing the fragrance in the air.
While reminiscing about yesterday's signing process...
—He hadn't expected Luo Yanyun to still be a virgin.
Later, under his persistent questioning, he learned that.
Luo Yanyun was actually the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Modu.
Although her family's influence couldn't compare to the Modu Four Great Families.
They still had some background.
Almost all the films she participated in had family investments.
Naturally, no one dared to lay a hand on her during filming.
—He hadn't expected to get such a bargain now.
This also conformed to the characteristics of the women around the protagonist.
Regardless of the field.
Almost all of them were virgins.
Chen Tianming didn't wake Luo Yanyun, who was still in a deep sleep.
He got up and washed himself.
Just as he stepped out, his phone suddenly vibrated, and the screen lit up.
He reached for it from the nightstand.
He lit up the screen.
Chen Tianming's lips curled slightly upwards, and he muttered to himself:
“Has the show already begun?”
...
Galaxy Group.
After Zhao Xuexuan left yesterday, she didn't sleep all night.
Her mind was filled with the events of the day.
A sycophant who had always been servile suddenly awakened, publicly slapped her, and then walked away with his head held high.
Anyone who experienced such a shock would find it difficult to sleep.
She finally fell into a daze and slept for a short while.
It was already morning the next day.
There was nothing she could do.
She could only drag her exhausted body to work.
However.
What Zhao Xuexuan hadn't expected was that the impact of yesterday's events was far from over.
Her nightmare had only just begun.
This morning, with dark circles under her eyes, she had just arrived at the company when she saw a crowd of people gathered at the entrance of the company office.
Some were employees, while others were partners of their company.
The two groups were mixed together, making it quite chaotic.
Zhao Xuexuan could vaguely hear her secretary shouting loudly, “Everyone, please don't rush!”
“Please wait for our CEO Zhao to make a decision on everything!”
At this moment, an employee in the crowd saw Zhao Xuexuan.
Their eyes immediately lit up.
They quickly raised the A4 paper they were holding.
“CEO Zhao, I want to apply for resignation!”
This person shouted, and the others immediately turned their heads when they heard the commotion.
“I want to resign too!”
“Me too!”
“...”
Zhao Xuexuan's face darkened as she looked at the sea of resigning employees.
She looked at her secretary beside her and asked, “What's going on?”
The secretary came to her side and stammered out a brief explanation of what had happened.
Only then did Zhao Xuexuan understand.
It turned out that after Chen Tianming left yesterday.
Overnight.
All of the Chen family's channels and support were cut off.
Moreover, the incident happened at the company's main entrance.
Someone edited the video and uploaded it online.
The views had already reached tens of millions!
It went viral overnight!
Galaxy Company's reputation was in tatters.
It even affected some of the Zhao family's other businesses.
Under the dual blow, their company's market value.
Overnight, the market value evaporated by at least several hundred million!
And it was still continuously falling!
Most investors, seeing this.
Arrived at the company's entrance early in the morning, demanding to terminate their cooperation and receive compensation according to the original contract.
Company employees, fearing involvement, more than half of them demanded to resign.
Many others were still observing.
However, most of them were already planning to leave.
Zhao Xuexuan's vision went black upon hearing this, and she almost fainted!
With the help of her secretary, she finally managed to steady herself.
Galaxy Group was the fruit of her hard work for so long.
Now, hearing that the company was in trouble, she almost couldn't hold it together.
Zhao Xuexuan took a deep breath.
She calmed herself down.
Knowing that she absolutely couldn't panic now.
She gritted her teeth and said:
“Everyone, don't worry, I will solve all your problems one by one!”
Only then did everyone quiet down.
After much effort, she finally returned to her office.
After understanding the detailed course of events.
Zhao Xuexuan put down the documents in her hand.
She leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes.
A strong sense of powerlessness arose in her heart.
She had always thought that the reason Galaxy Group developed so quickly was entirely because of her.
But now it seemed.
Not only was she wrong, but she was incredibly wrong!
Now that the Chen family had announced they would no longer support the Zhao family.
She alone had no way to turn the tide.
By the time Zhao Xuexuan finished dealing with company matters, it was already noon.
Almost all investors withdrew their capital.
She paid hundreds of millions in compensation.
Two-thirds of the employees resigned.
The company was completely shut down.
On the verge of bankruptcy.
Zhao Xuexuan's mind was already somewhat numb.
Just as she was about to eat something and take a break.
The office phone suddenly rang!
“Hello?”
“Zhao Xuexuan, do you know what good deed you've done?” The person on the other end of the phone was practically roaring.
“Get back here right now!”
With that, he hung up the phone directly.
She was very familiar with the voice on the other end of the phone.
It was her father.
In her impression, her father had always been a relatively gentle figure.
From childhood to adulthood, this was the first time she had seen her father get so angry!
As for the reason, it goes without saying, it was still because of her.
Zhao Xuexuan numbly hung up the phone.
She gave up on eating.
She walked downstairs from the company.
She saw a stretched limousine already waiting there.
The driver had silver hair.
It was Butler Ah Fu, who was always by her Father Zhao's side.
Under normal circumstances.
Ah Fu would always stay by Father Zhao's side.
But now he was sent to pick her up personally.
This showed that the severity of the situation had exceeded expectations.
After getting into the car.
Zhao Xuexuan could no longer hold back and burst into tears!
Ah Fu saw Zhao Xuexuan's appearance in the rearview mirror.
He sighed inwardly.
In the end, he said nothing.
By the time the car stopped.
Zhao Xuexuan had already composed herself.
Only her eyes were a little red.
“Miss, please!”
Zhao Xuexuan walked through the main gate.
When she reached the living room.
Father Zhao's voice came from afar: “Mr. Li, can you please be accommodating...”
“I'm just following Chen Shao's orders, I hope Mr. Zhao doesn't make things difficult for me.”
In the living room, on the sofa.
A middle-aged man in a black suit with perfectly combed hair was leisurely drinking tea from a cup.
A stack of documents was on the table.
And opposite him, Father Zhao was sweating profusely, his face pale.
He didn't look like the head of a Four Great Families at all.
“Mr. Li, can you really not be more accommodating?” Father Zhao pleaded again, looking extremely humble.
The middle-aged man glanced at Father Zhao.
He sneered inwardly.
If only he had known this earlier, why did he act that way then?
He had clung to the Chen family like a parasite, yet he still acted so superior.
Now he's finally scared?
“Sorry.” Mr. Li showed no sign of relenting.
He stood up and straightened his clothes.
He walked towards the door.
When he reached the door.
He saw Zhao Xuexuan standing at the entrance and raised his eyebrows slightly.
However, he didn't stop.
He just walked past her.
And on the sofa in the living room.
Father Zhao seemed to have aged a dozen years in an instant.
He leaned back on the sofa, his face ashen.
“The Zhao family is finished...”
