Qiao Ru looked apologetic. "President Jiang, I'm sorry, it was me..."
Jiang Xiaoli raised her hand to stop her from saying what she was about to say, "This matter has nothing to do with you today. You don't need to think too much about it. You just need to take good care of these artists. I'll tell you the specifics later."
Qiao Ru nodded. "Okay, then, Mr. Jiang, please go ahead with your work."
Jiang Xiaoli retrieved her bag from Zong Jiayu and went straight to the lounge to call Song Guoqiang. "Brother Song, I need your help again. Could you please investigate 'Maotian Film & Television' and their general manager, Mr. Wang?"
To her surprise, Song Guoqiang said directly, "The information is readily available. I can give it to you whenever it's convenient."
She was slightly surprised. "Brother Song, did you predict my move?"
Song Guoqiang asked calmly, "President Jiang, is the salary you promised me still valid?"
Jiang Xiaoli was overjoyed and immediately said, "Of course it counts! Brother Song, you've finally figured it out?"
Song Guoqiang's words were very realistic: "I used to think highly of President Jiang, but President Jiang's foundation was still too shallow. But now you are the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, so it's different."
She chuckled softly, "Anyway, I'm really glad you're willing to come and help me, Brother Song. See you at the company tomorrow?"
"OK."
Zong Jiayu was puzzled as she alternated between looking worried and beaming with joy. "What's wrong?"
She briefly explained what had just happened, "He said I've offended a lot of people, and besides those few from the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce, I really can't think of anyone else!"
Zong Jia sighed, "Perhaps the rapid increase in new users after the launch of the new version of 'SOSO' this week has stimulated them again."
He put his arm around her shoulder. "Little Pear, I'm so sorry."
Jiang Xiaoli waved her hand, "What's there to apologize for? I'm also a major shareholder of 'Yujia Technology.' They can't control the development of 'Yujia Technology' right now, so they can only resort to these disgusting tricks on me. It's alright, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. One day they won't dare to be so arrogant anymore."
Zong Jia promised, "I will speed up the development of 'SOSO'."
She shook her head and said, "No need to rush. There are only so many netizens in China right now. Just do your best. Too much is as bad as too little."
Just then, there was a knock on the door of the lounge, and Zhong Yuan poked his head in. "It's Lao Shen's turn to speak. Whatever it is, we can deal with it later?"
The three of them returned to the banquet hall and met up with Xiao Muyu and Hu Jingxin.
Xiao Muyu asked with concern, "I've heard a lot of people talking about how you fell out with that CEO Wang. What happened?"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and took her arm, "It's okay, I can handle it."
Xiao Muyu could tell that she didn't want her to worry, so she said softly, "I don't understand all your complicated ideas, but if you want to complain or scold someone, you can tell me."
Jiang Xiaoli looked at her serious little face and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, if I really want to find someone to vent to, you can't run away even if you want to."
On the banquet stage, Shen Zhaokun clinked glasses with countless people. He said happily, "Thank you all for attending our 'Outstanding' film crew's celebration banquet. To be honest, the movie has only been released for a week, so this celebration banquet is a bit early."
However, I am very satisfied with our current achievements. I have some good news to share: as of 7 pm tonight, our total box office revenue has exceeded 55 million yuan!
The audience erupted in applause. The undeniable achievements were right before their eyes, and even those who wanted to be envious couldn't muster any enthusiasm.
Shen Zhaokun tapped the microphone, and the hall quieted down. He continued, "The success of 'Qiaochu' is inseparable from the hard work and dedication of everyone in the crew. But I still want to thank one person here."
She is President Jiang of "Jiang's Entertainment". The first few days after the start of filming of "Qiaochu" it encountered the crisis of investors withdrawing their funds and stopping production. At that time, I don't know how many investors I contacted. In the end, I felt that the hope was slim and I was drinking heavily at home. It was President Jiang who gave me hope. It was her investment that allowed "Qiaochu" to be completed and presented to everyone with high quality.
Mr. Jiang, thank you so much!
All eyes were on Jiang Xiaoli, with a few flashes of light going off.
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and raised her glass to the stage, "Director Shen is too modest. It was your script and your passion for film that moved me."
Shen Zhaokun smiled as he held the microphone, changing the subject. "Today is a special day for our magazine, 'Qiaochu.' I hope all the guests have a wonderful evening. Thank you all for coming!"
After Jiang Xiaoli gave Li Anting a few instructions, the group did not linger in the banquet hall any longer.
Zhong Yuan took Hu Jingxin back to school, and Zong Jia drove them both home.
When they arrived at Xiao Muyu's apartment on the 26th floor, Jiang Xiaoli reminded her, "Remember to use the makeup remover I gave you to remove your makeup before washing your face and taking care of your skin."
"Okay! Bye-bye."
Upon arriving at the 27th floor, Zong Jiayu immediately took her home.
The two went to Zong Jiayu's study. He turned on his computer and opened a document. "Little Pear, take a look at these."
Jiang Xiaoli's eyes widened as she looked at the contents of the document. "When did you start collecting this?"
The document, totaling over 200 megabytes, records evidence of various illegal operations by a business alliance led by "Huaxin Group," "Huijin Wealth," and "Maple Leaf Financial."
Zong Jiayu thought for a moment, "Let's start by taking action against the First Garment Factory."
Jiang Xiaoli quickly scanned the document again with the mouse. "Are you sure all this evidence is authentic and valid?"
Zong Jia nodded, "It's confirmed. These are all original documents obtained from the company bosses they persecuted. I've investigated them thoroughly, and they're all true."
She stroked her chin thoughtfully, "If that's the case, then our problem is where to find a breakthrough."
Zong Jia pointed to the words "Maple Leaf Financial" and said, "Maple Leaf Financial's headquarters are in Canada. Wan Chenggang is just a senior manager in China. He has considerable authority, but he can't truly be the boss of Maple Leaf Financial."
Jiang Xiaoli laughed, "Someone who's just an employee is treating the company like their own and messing things up. I wonder what the shareholders of 'Maple Leaf Financial' think?"
Zong Jia snapped his fingers. "That's the idea, but if we contact them directly, they won't take us seriously. I originally wanted to wait until 'Yu Jia Technology' had developed further and gained more influence before taking action, but they went too far. If we act now, I might need my uncle's help to make a connection."
"That's easy." She took a sip of water and raised an eyebrow. "Wait, I'll go tell my uncle on this tomorrow!"
