Just as they were discussing their strategy, Xia Hongda pushed open the door of the conference room with a smile on his face. It was impossible to tell that he was furious just now.
Xia Hongda cupped his fists and said, "Everyone, I'm really sorry. There's a problem with the heating system in our company's reception room, so I have to trouble you to come here. "
Li Ran and the other six people stood up together. After all, Xia Hongda was a boss. Before they fell out with him, they had to show him some courtesy.
"It's okay, Mr. Xia. It's indeed a little sudden for us to come here this time. We didn't inform you in advance. It's our fault. But it was only this morning that everyone got this amazing thing. We had no choice but to come here together. Please don't blame us, Mr. Xia. "
Seeing the feminine Li Ran, Xia Hongda had goosebumps all over his body, but nothing could be seen on his face.
Puzzled, he asked, "We are honored by your presence. May I know what is the matter?"
Everyone looked at Li Ran.
"It seems that Mr. Xia really doesn't know." After Li Ran finished speaking, he took out a memory card from his briefcase and said, "Mr. Xia, please get someone to bring me a computer. I have something here that I need you to look at."
Xia Hongda narrowed his eyes and his heart skipped a beat. He quickly ordered someone to bring him a laptop.
Li Ran transferred the video from the memory card to the computer and turned on the player. The conversation between Cheng Ye and Ho Ming in the hot pot restaurant appeared in front of Xia Hongda.
The video that Song Yunfeng brought over overnight was edited. Only the most important conversation was in it. Everything else was deleted. Therefore, it only took Xia Hongda three minutes to watch it all.
"Bastards."
Xia Hongda only felt that his anger was about to reach the top of his head. His chest heaved up and down violently, and his face turned green and white.
He never thought that the source of his heavy losses would be his own company's people. Xia Hongda was about to explode with anger.
At the same time, he also understood why the company's executives came together. It was exactly the same as the previous incident. They were denouncing him.
Looking at Xia Hongda, who had an extremely ugly expression on his face, Li Ran smiled sinisterly and said, "Chairman Xia, the truth of the Three Kingdoms film crew's drug abuse case has been revealed. How do you plan to deal with it?"
Xia Hongda gritted his teeth and said, "Needless to say, I'll never forgive these two bastards."
"Hehe." Li Ran smiled sinisterly and said, "This is your company's internal matter. It's not good for outsiders like us to interfere. It's just that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms has caused our major companies to suffer heavy losses. I hope that Mr. Xia can help us make up for it. "
"Although their actions are not only innocent according to the law, but should also be rewarded by the public security department, the law is the law, and reality is reality. After all, we are all in the same circle, and we see each other all the time. If we are implicated by your company for no reason, with President Xia's benevolence, you won't let us suffer in silence, right?"
Li Ran and Xia Hongda had a grudge in the past. At a banquet a few years ago, Xia Hongda did not give Li Ran any face when he came over to propose a toast in front of many people.
Although Li Ran didn't say anything at that time, he still held a grudge in his heart.
It was just that Xia Hongda was too powerful and Li Ran had never been able to regain his dignity. Now that he finally had an excuse, he would not let go of this opportunity to beat the dog while it was down.
Xia Hongda had already guessed that this would happen. He forcefully suppressed his anger and asked Li Ran, "Then, what do you think we should do, Vice President Li?"
Li Ran made a hand gesture and said, "It's very simple. Our Dongfang Entertainment lost 80 million because of this. Hongda, please help us make up for it."
"That's right, Mr. Xia. Xinyue lost 30 million this time. Shouldn't your company reimburse us?"
"We didn't lose much, only 12 million. It shouldn't be a difficult matter for the rich and overbearing Hongda. "
"Our company lost 23 million."
Xia Hongda's face turned extremely gloomy when he heard about the losses of each company. He said, "And if I don't?"
Li Ran chuckled and said playfully, "Then we can't do anything about it. We can only hand the entire video to the public security department so that they can claim credit for the two people in your company. I think they can get at least 2 million as a reward for reporting such a big case. Hehe, that's several times higher than my annual salary. However, it's hard to say what will happen in the future. "
The corner of Xia Hongda's mouth twitched when he heard Li Ran's implied threat. He knew very well that once this matter got out, Hongda Company would immediately become a target of scorn in the entire entertainment industry. No other company would work with Hongda in the future, and they would definitely be collectively banned by the industry.
Xia Hongda glanced at the smiling Li Ran, and an idea suddenly popped into his mind.
Perhaps the person in front of him was waiting for him to do so.
"What should we do, Mr. Xia? Just give us a straightforward answer so that we can report back and not waste everyone's time. "
Vice President Li of Yuele Entertainment urged.
Xia Hongda glanced at him coldly. He gritted his teeth and said with difficulty, "Hongda Entertainment agrees to compensate each company for their losses. Please make a copy of the bank receipt sent to the Three Kingdoms film crew. After we check it, we'll compensate you with the funds. "
Li Ran chuckled and gave him a thumbs up. He said with satisfaction, "You're really bold, Mr. Xia. We've brought the bank receipt. Please take a look, Mr. Xia. "
Looking at the ugliness of the six people who couldn't wait, Xia Hongda suddenly felt disgusted.
He stood up expressionlessly and said, "Just give the money order to my assistant next to me. I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well, so I won't accompany you. Goodbye. "
Xia Hongda finished speaking and left the meeting room in a huff.
Li Ran and the others looked at Xia Hongda's back and smiled knowingly.
Indeed, they had achieved their goal. There was no reason to be unhappy.
As for whether their happiness was based on other people's pain, that was not a problem for them to consider.
Xia Hongda returned to his office, picked up the teacup on his desk, and took a big sip. Then, with a "pa" sound, his beloved teacup was fiercely smashed onto the floor, breaking into a dozen pieces.
When the executives of the six companies collectively came to the company, Xia Chengfeng had already heard the news.
Less than three minutes after Xia Hongda returned to the office, Xia Chengfeng heard the news and rushed over.
Seeing his father lying on the chair and the pieces on the floor, Xia Chengfeng quietly picked up the broom next to him and cleaned the floor.
Xia Hongda rubbed his temples and said, "Chengfeng, do you know everything?"
Xia Chengfeng nodded and said, "Dad, I know everything. I really didn't expect that this big case that shocked Hua Xia was actually caused by Ho Ming and Cheng Ye. This is a slap to Hongda's face. I definitely won't let them off. "
"As for these two bastards, whether they did it intentionally or not, we have to deal with them harshly. Otherwise, how can we convince the public? How about this, let's not leak the news first. Just say that there are two important meetings that they need to attend tomorrow and temporarily transfer them back. We'll ban them for a period of time. When this storm blows over, we'll let people deal with them. "
Xia Chengfeng nodded and said sincerely, "Father, you're so thoughtful. I'll arrange it now."
Xia Hongda sighed and said, "One idiot made us lose two hundred million, and these two bastards cost us another one hundred million. What bad luck."
Xia Chengfeng asked in confusion, "Father, how do you think this video ended up in the hands of these entertainment companies? Generally speaking, if someone got it, they could use this video to get some benefits from us. There's no need to give it to other companies. "
"That's right." Xia Hongda's eyes lit up and said, "They got this video at the same time this morning. It shouldn't be their people who found it. Then, to be able to do something that harms others without benefiting themselves, they must have a huge grudge against our company. Among the cast of the Three Kingdoms, who do you think is the most likely? "
He was, after all, the helmsman of a large entertainment company. Once he calmed down, he analyzed the ins and outs of the matter. It was clear and logical. In just a few words, the suspect was narrowed down to a small area.
Xia Chengfeng's gaze was like a knife. He gritted his teeth and said, "Other than that bastard Xiao Yunhai, who else could it be? I received a call from Ho Ming yesterday. He said that this Xiao Yunhai is very difficult to deal with. He even used a honey trap, but it didn't work at all. I think he must have noticed Hu Ming and Cheng Ye, so he sent people to keep an eye on the two of them. Yes, that should be it. "
"If it's really him, then this person is a little scary. Chengfeng, we lost this time. We'll deal with Xiao Yunhai's matter in the future. Don't make things difficult for him anymore. You must know that we're spending our money on every scene now. "
Xiao Chengfeng said angrily, "Dad, I understand."
The next morning, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing came to the set together. They found that Ho Ming, who usually arranged the filming matters, was gone. Hong Tianchou personally went to arrange the filming work.
Xiao Yunhai seemed to have thought of something. He and Zhao Wanqing looked at each other and sighed at the same time.
"Aiya, what's going on? Why is our high and mighty great Director Hong doing such chores? This is a little overkill, isn't it? "
A playful voice came from behind.
Xiao Yunhai didn't need to turn around to know that other than Wang Guoan, only Sun Yanjun dared to talk to Hong Tianchou like that.
They were old brothers who had known each other for decades. As long as it wasn't during filming, they would talk to each other casually.
Sure enough, the person who came was Sun Yanjun.
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing hurriedly greeted him. Sun Yanjun also smiled and nodded.
After Hong Tianchou finished arranging a scene, he turned around and said to Sun Yanjun unhappily, "Old Sun, don't gloat over my misfortune. Motherf * cker, what is Hongda Entertainment doing? Last night, they called Ho Ming and Cheng Ye back, saying that there was something important. I'm so angry. What could be more important than the filming of the Three Kingdoms? I have no choice but to do it myself. "
