He wore a fully customized black couture suit and even though he was entirely paralysed to the tips of his fingers, he still sat upright. The smooth flow on the suit was not disturbed, and there were no wrinkles formed despite his sitting position.
The inborn dignity and gracefulness created a drastic difference between him and his elder brother.
Zhongbo Entertainment was established by Zhan Lichuan single-handedly, and therefore, he was the Chairman instead of Master Zhan. Zhan Yuheng may be temporarily in charge of the company, but whenever the real owner appeared, everyone in the company would automatically bow down to Zhan Lichuan.
This included Zhan Yuheng.
“Director Yi, did you know about ‘Mirror World’?”
Zhan Yihe could feel her scalp going numb, especially when Jing Qian was sitting inside her office. With the screen connected, Jing Qian, Director He, and Una were forced to appear in the conference call.
“Sir, I’ve indeed known about ‘Mirror World’, but I only just found out about the problem with this project. Jing Qian just informed me that her manager and the Vice Director of the Operating Department had negotiated amongst themselves to a private agreement. They exchanged her role of the first female lead for the first male lead role for the manager’s nephew, Qin Yi, who’s a rising idol, and also a secondary female lead role for Jing Qian’s younger sister, Jing Lu. In exchange, we’ve given Huanrui Entertainment the first female lead role along with a 20% profit.”
As soon as Zhan Yihe explained what had happened, the faces of the senior executives and shareholders drastically changed.
Jing Qian?
What the hell was this?
Why would Zhongbo invest so much money in a drama for an unknown newcomer?
The main thing was that they had even incurred a loss of 20% and lost the first female lead to another actress!
“Yihe, why didn’t you report this to me?” Zhan Yuheng’s face looked awful as well.
This was such a huge matter, yet he, the Deputy Director, had no idea about this until it was raised to their attention by this quadriplegic who had been lying in bed all this while.
Plus, this matter was related to Jing Qian.
Didn’t Zhan Yihe know how much the old man valued this woman?!
“Big brother, I just found out about this as well. You were in a conference call, which was why I told Qianqian to come into my office.”
“So, what is your solution to this problem?” Zhan Lichuan asked.
“Since this problem was created by Director He and her manager, Una, they should take responsibility for it. Zhongbo Entertainment should file a civil lawsuit against them with financial compensation.”
Zhan Yihe deliberately avoided the crucial part of the problem and instantly blamed it on Director He and Una without a second thought. The pair turned as white as paper.
She hadn’t mentioned that they would be charged with financial compensation.
Una was afraid of being confronted by the Zhan family, so she immediately defended herself. “I was authorised with the right to deal with this matter entirely by myself. Jing Qian had already promised me earlier on that I would be in charge of all her affairs in regards to her entertainment career, and she even signed an agreement with me. Therefore, I have the rights to decide on her behalf for the cast of this project.”
Una viciously turned and stared at Jing Qian, warning her, “Jing Qian, hurry up and tell them that this was all a misunderstanding. You were the one who wanted Qin Yi and Jing Lu on the show as well. Don’t you remember what your dreams are?”
That last sentence?
It was obvious that she was threatening Jing Qian.
This was because Jing Qian’s dream before this had been to make Qin Yi the best actor.
If Jing Qian didn’t help her with this matter, she would expose the fact that Jing Qian had cheated on the Zhan family with Qin Yi. By then, the net would break and all the fishes in it would die altogether; no one would be able to escape from this tragedy.
