Chapter 56
Nan Tao laughed heartily upon seeing this: "Hahahahahahahahahahaha... Mr. Lu, please walk slowly. There's no ghost chasing you, so why are you in such a hurry?"
Lu Zhao was furious and wanted to curse, but his butt was so painful that he grimaced in anger. He slowly stood up with his hands on the ground and limped away. From the back, he looked very embarrassed.
"You're the best!" Lin Hong gave Nan Tao a thumbs up.
Nan Tao pouted, "This kind of person deserves it. Instead of being a good person, he bullies his subordinates. Is being a leader that great?"
Thinking about this kind of person being a member of Nanhuan's management and being friends with a scumbag like Li Ding, I feel that this is not a good idea. What if he harms Nanhuan's female artists?
Nan Tao said it was wind and that was rain, and immediately called her elder brother Nan Bo.
The call was answered quickly.
Nan Tao said coquettishly, "Brother, I was bullied by someone in the company."
Nan Bo frowned and raised his hand to signal the executives presenting on the stage to pause. "Which company?"
Nan Tao: "In our family, Nan Huan, there's a newly appointed head of the business management department. His name is Lu. Oh, and Lu Zhao, you don't know him. He called me lazy and even forced Lin Hong to change my personality."
With every word Nan Tao spoke, Nan Bo became more cold.
In the huge conference room, the executives looked at each other, too scared to breathe, fearing that they would offend others and suffer disaster.
Nan Bo coaxed, "Our little princess is the most diligent, not lazy at all. I won't change your personality for you, no one dares. Are you in Nan Huan now?"
Nan Tao: “Yes.”
Nan Bo smiled and said, "It's rare to see you come to the company."
Nan Tao curled her lips and said, "My heroine was snatched away by someone else. I came to the company today to see what's going on and communicate with the other crew."
Nan Bo's face turned cold: "Who stole your role?"
Nan Tao's eyes rolled, "She's a female artist from Tianyu Century."
Nan Bo sneered: "I told you that Yu Zhengyang was useless, but you insisted on marrying him. Now even the people in the company can bully the boss's wife."
Nan Tao: "Don't scold him, he doesn't know."
Nan Bo: "Alright, stop explaining for him. He doesn't even know his wife is being bullied. He's abroad all day. How can his work be as important as you and your nephew?"
Nan Tao thought it would be better not to answer, as her brother and husband didn't get along.
Nan Bo: "I'm currently in the Nan Huan Conference Room for a semi-annual meeting. I'll come see you after the meeting."
After hanging up the phone, Nan Bo looked at President Nan Huan who was sitting next to him and asked calmly, "Did you recruit Lu Zhao?"
President Nan Huan almost guessed what happened and cursed Lu Zhao in his heart. He was too arrogant and thought he had offended anyone but the God of Fortune.
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he carefully explained, "This guy jumped ship from Tianyu Century. He has a lot of resources and is quite capable..."
Noticing Mr. Nan's unfriendly expression, he quickly changed his tone and said, "He's only been hired for a month, and his probation period hasn't ended yet. If his performance isn't good, the company will fire him immediately."
Nan Bo said meaningfully, "You handle it."
Meanwhile, Nan Tao was lazily lying on the sofa, complaining to Lin Hong, "I think Lu Zhao is using you and me as a scapegoat."
Lin Hong said weakly: "There's nothing we can do. All new leaders are like this. It's just that we were unlucky and were chosen."
Nan Tao: "How long has he been in your office?"
Lin Hong: "It's hard to explain. He had already scolded me for over an hour before you came in."
Nan Tao thought of the scene she saw when she pushed the door open earlier, "You've been standing there for over an hour?"
Lin Hong sighed: "There's nothing I can do about it. He's my direct superior."
Nan Tao: "You just contradicted him, aren't you afraid that he will make things difficult for you?"
Lin Hong: "Look at what you said. I didn't contradict you. The official document is real. I am speaking the truth according to the company's rules and regulations."
Nan Tao gave a thumbs up: "Great."
Lin Hong: "You can't get along in this circle without some skills."
Nan Tao: "Indeed, if you are not strong, don't expect others to be soft on you."
Lin Hong glanced down at her phone and said, "In about twenty minutes, Director Le's crew will be here."
Nan Tao: "What are they going to do?"
Lin Hong: "Even though Tianyu Century has officially announced it, Director Le is a stubborn person. Their contract hasn't been signed yet. Tianyu wants to use online public opinion to pressure Director Le, but they underestimated Director Le's pursuit of film art. Rong Ya doesn't meet his requirements for the female lead role, so he won't agree."
Nan Tao admires: "In this impetuous era, there are still people like Director Le who are so ambitious. It's amazing. No wonder the quality of the films he makes are top-notch and almost guaranteed to win awards."
Lin Hong: "That's why so many people are vying for the role, even without any pay. Their motivation is very clear: they all want to win an award under Director Le and increase their value."
Nan Tao chatted with Lin Hong for a while about the latest gossip in the entertainment industry, and then continued to play with her phone to pass the time out of boredom.
When I saw the TOP1 trending search on Doudou, my eyes widened instantly.
No way, how could it become like this in just one day?
Nan Tao read on and became angrier and angrier.
It turned out that a reporter from a media outlet interviewed Niu Fang's biological parents and subsequently published an article titled #China's filial piety, why force biological parents!#, which went viral online. Coupled with the video of Niu Fang's biological parents crying during the interview, it attracted countless netizens to curse and cyberbully Niu Fang.
Some radical netizens even opened the box and found the hospital where Grandma Niu Fang was staying. They went to the hospital in person to preach and accused the old lady of raising a selfish and indifferent child. Grandma Niu Fang was already seriously ill and had been postponing surgery because she had no money. After these accusations, she was heartbroken when she learned about the situation her grandson was facing because of her illness. She believed that she was a burden to her grandson and died suddenly before she could recover from her emotions.
After learning about this, Niu Fang was unable to accept the reality and attempted suicide by jumping into the sea, but was soon found and rescued by local people. He is currently receiving treatment in the hospital emergency center.
This incident has attracted significant attention on the Internet and has become a hot topic on major platforms.
Everyone condemned the current online violence and prayed that Niu Fang would wake up soon.
The matter is not over yet. The police in Haicheng County officially announced the human trafficking case that has been growing since 20 years ago. Niu Fang is one of the victims of trafficking. He was sold by his biological mother's brother's wife for 500 yuan.
The huge reversal caused countless netizens to angrily scold Niu Fang's biological parents, the unscrupulous media, the various big Vs who distorted the truth, and the people who killed the grandmother.
Nan Tao was furious. The media nowadays was too immoral. They would take advantage of others for the sake of traffic. Now, they had killed two people at once. Poor Niu Fang, I hope he can be rescued.
Nan Tao looked around the entertainment industry and counted the artists who spoke out for Niu Fang. There were very few of them. Apart from herself, Zhou Mei and the other three, there were also a few other unknown small artists. Most of them just kept out of the matter as it had nothing to do with them.
Enough is enough! A while ago, someone abused a cat, and celebrities all spoke out as if the whole of China was doomed. But now that someone has died, everyone has shut up. Do they think human life is unimportant? Is caring for animals a better way to show your love?
Nan Tao fell into deep thought, not understanding how this group of people could be so good at playing double standards.
"Peach, peach?"
Seeing no response, Lin Hong stretched out her hand and waved in front of Nan Tao.
Nan Tao came back to her senses and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Hong said helplessly: "Boss Lu asked us to go to his office."
Nan Tao: "What happened to him?"
Lin Hong: "Are you going or not? If not, I'll tell you you're in the bathroom."
Nan Tao was about to say no when she heard her son's inner voice. Suddenly, her heart was filled with excitement and her eyes widened.
[Tongtong, you said the son born to Li Ding's wife was Lu Zhao's?]
【Isn't it said that you shouldn't cheat on your friend's wife?】
[Oh, how pitiful! It turns out neither of them knew.]
Nan Tao looked down at Yu Ze's expressionless smile and suddenly found it funny. Her son was so cute with a contrast. He looked serious and cold on the surface, but he was so rich inside. I wonder if he would become a reserved person when he grows up.
Maybe this is really possible.
"peach?"
Nan Tao coughed lightly and changed the subject: "Go, why not go."
Lin Hong wondered, "Are you sure you want to go? I don't think it's good."
Nan Tao chuckled, "Go, go, of course I'm going."
After Nan Tao stood up, she said to Yu Ze, "Be good and stay in the office. Don't go out. Mommy and your Aunt Xiaohong will be back soon."
Yu Ze nodded: "Okay."
Nan Tao and Lin Hong chatted as they walked, wondering what Lu Zhao wanted to talk to them about.
As soon as I reached the corner, I saw Lu Zhao standing outside the office door and greeting people from afar.
Nan Tao felt the figure from behind looked familiar, and when she got closer, she saw that it was indeed Li Ding.
"Mr. Lu, congratulations on your promotion to head of Nanhuan's business management department." Li Ding complimented with a smile.
Lu Zhao: "How can I compare to Producer Li? You're praising me too much."
Li Ding: "Please take good care of me in future business dealings."
When Nan Tao heard this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Ha ha ha ha……
So Lu Zhao used to take good care of Li Ding, and even took Li Ding's wife to bed? Did Li Ding know his wife was cheating on him with his best friend, and did they conspire to cheat on him?
It was over. She didn't know whether to sympathize with Li Ding for being cuckolded and knowing that his son was not his biological son, or to sympathize with Lu Zhao for not knowing that Li Ding's son was his own.
Li Ding’s wife is awesome. She can play with two men at her fingertips.
"That's unruly! What are you laughing at? Hurry up and say hello to Producer Li." Lu Zhao scolded.
Nan Tao tried to hold back her laughter, her shoulders shaking violently. No, it was so difficult to hold it back.
Li Ding said, "Boss Lu, your female artist is so tactless. Are all Nan Huan's artists of this level?"
Lu Zhao said with a cold face: "Nan Tao! I'm talking to you, why are you laughing?"
Nan Tao looked at Lu Zhao sympathetically, then at Li Ding pitifully. It was truly tragic. If the two knew the truth, would they break up? Just thinking about that scene made her so emotional.
"Sorry, I couldn't help it for a moment...hahahaha..."
Lu Zhao shouted angrily: "That's enough! Shut up!"
Li Ding: "Old Lu, forget it. I've finally learned a lot about your artist. Apart from anything else, I ran into her on the first floor elevator before, and she was bullied for a while. She has no image at all. How can such a person still be in Nanhuan? I'm sincerely thinking about you. If she collapses in the future, it will affect your future development."
Lu Zhao: "Brother, I understand what you said. I accept your kindness."
Li Ding sighed: "As long as you understand, we have been brothers for many years, why should we be polite?"
Lu Zhao smiled and said, "That's right. Let's go inside and talk." Then he looked at Lin Hongnantao with a cold face, "You two should come in here too."
Seeing Nan Tao laughing like a cat that had stolen some fish, Lin Hong was full of curiosity. She pulled Nan Tao's arm and asked quietly, "Why did you suddenly laugh so happily just now?"
