After thinking for a moment, Tao Zheng immediately agreed: "Okay, then go and do a good job."
"Alright!" Tao Zidong waved his hand, "Mission accomplished!"
-
Two days later, the new head of Xingchen Entertainment took office and officially released a statement, saying that they would compensate the victims of the Qin Lezhang incident, but at the same time, they would hold accountable those who took advantage of the chaos to spread rumors and slander the group and the company.
This includes several of Qin Lezhang's exes, as well as some obscure celebrities who suddenly claimed that they had also been "blacklisted" by Qin Lezhang.
It's clear that the newly appointed General Manager Tao is very decisive in his actions.
As a result, Tao Zidong's resume and background began to appear online, while Qin Lezhang was also criticized.
Seeing this, netizens started making memes and jokes.
[The true crown prince has returned to the palace; everyone get out of the way.]
[I knew there wouldn't be a real princeling acting in a movie! Besides, Qin Lezhang used his relationship scandals to help others avoid trending topics several times before, this is obviously impossible.]
[This is the real prince! Everyone, come and receive his good fortune!]
Please, let me be reborn into a better family in my next life.
[Wait, weren't we all saying before that the Qing Dynasty is long gone, and we shouldn't keep calling people "young master" or "crown prince"? Why are they all kneeling down now?]
[666, netizens have changed their tune again and aren't including me.]
Regardless of netizens' attitudes, the impact of this incident on Starry Night Pictures has been minimized, and most netizens are now just making jokes and have stopped focusing on Starry Night Pictures.
By the time Xiao He saw the news, the person involved in the story had already come knocking on his door.
Afternoon, Shanghai, a hotel.
As soon as the filming wrapped up, Xiao He took a car back to the hotel.
The hotel lobby was as deserted as ever, but a few people sitting on the sofa in the lobby immediately caught Xiao He's attention.
The young man in the lead wore a simple light brown stand-up collar shirt and a low-key black mechanical watch on his wrist. He looked at people with a scrutinizing gaze, but without Qin Lezhang's arrogance and haughtiness.
Xiao He knew who the other person was almost at a glance.
"You must be Xiao He?" The other person had obviously seen Xiao He as well, and immediately stood up, walked towards Xiao He with a smile, and extended his hand. "I'm very sorry for disturbing you - no, I should call you President Xiao. I'm sorry to bother you. My name is Tao Zidong, and I am the current CEO of Xingchen Pictures."
"Hello, Mr. Tao."
Xiao He immediately put on a smile and led Tao Zidong to an empty room that had been arranged in advance, where they sat down on the sofa.
"I'm here mainly to discuss compensation. We are very sorry that Qin Lezhang used our group's reputation, which caused you serious harm. Your agent has already relayed the terms we discussed, but I feel that I need to come in person to discuss this matter in order to express our apology and sincerity."
It must be said that Tao Zidong is quite flexible and adaptable, without any arrogant airs, and his speech is very pleasant.
Xiao He smiled just as quickly and replied warmly, "It's alright. I'm already very honored that you came in person, Mr. Tao. The previous incident didn't cause me much loss, so let bygones be bygones."
"No, no, no—"
Tao Zidong gestured to his assistant, who took out several documents and placed them in front of Xiao He: "The compensation we offered before was indeed something we hadn't considered carefully. This time, we've made careful selections, including the requests your agent made before, which we've all agreed to. We hope you, Mr. Xiao, will accept them."
Xiao He merely glanced at it briefly before raising an eyebrow slightly.
Tao Zidong's visit this time was truly full of sincerity.
Immediately afterwards, Tao Zidong said earnestly, "Cangyue Jie is a key project that Xingchen Entertainment will be focusing on next. I know that the previous incident may have caused some unpleasantness for everyone, and we are willing to make some concessions. We hope that President Xiao and President Song can sit down and have a good talk together."
Xiao He glanced at Liu Rulan and instantly understood.
Tao Zidong discovered that they had teamed up with Jiaxing Entertainment to steal the "Cangyue Jie" project...
So, as expected, the only thing that can make capital bow down and yield is another kind of capital.
