On the other end of the phone, Jiang Shan was also very smug. "Didn't you want money?"
Haha, without my approval, let's see how you perform in Canglan.
I'll make sure you don't sell a single ticket. Do you really think I can't do anything to you?
A singer wants to be with me?
"So, what does Chairman Jiang mean?"
"Hehe, we're all smart people, why do I have to spell it out so clearly? Just show me the script, and I'll approve it for you."
Li Tian sneered. It seemed that the decline of Canglan Opera was not entirely due to the times; these incompetent officials had also played a significant role.
"Alright, I understand. I won't be acting in this show in Canglan anymore. I'll be acting abroad instead!"
Jiang Shan almost burst out laughing. Had Li Tian gone mad?
When you perform abroad, will those foreigners be able to understand what you're singing?
"Fine, you said it. Don't let me see you performing in China. Rest assured, as long as I'm still the president of the Chinese Opera Association, you won't get any approval!"
Li Tian smiled and said, "Alright! Remember what you said!"
Jiang Shan was surprised that Li Tian was so stubborn and didn't know anything about compromise. What good would this do him?
Li Tian didn't take Jiang Shan seriously. He thought Jiang Shan was just a lousy chairman. Did he really think he was someone important?
Then Li Tian opened Weibo, wanting Jiang Shan to feel the power from the people.
Li Tian felt that using the Ye family's power to deal with Jiang Shan was disrespectful to the power of the people.
Li Tian: @Everyone, I have some unfortunate news to share. "The Butterfly Lovers" will no longer be able to be performed commercially in China. Due to the refusal of the Chinese Opera Association to grant approval, "The Butterfly Lovers" can only be performed abroad now. I would like to apologize to all the audience members and thank you for your support!
Li Tian's Weibo post quickly became a trending topic.
Countless netizens were baffled, wondering how this had gotten involved with the China Quyi Artists Association.
Then, knowledgeable netizens explained to everyone that the Canglan Quyi Association does indeed have this right.
Without the approval of the China Quyi Artists Association, "The Butterfly Lovers" cannot be commercially performed in the country.
Immediately, all the audience members turned their anger towards the China Quyi Artists Association, and the association's official website was even crashed due to the impact.
#On the Decline of Canglan Opera and the Incompetent Leaders of the China Quyi Artists Association#
Such a headline immediately topped the trending searches.
Su Xuan naturally saw Li Tian's trending topic and immediately called Jiang Shan.
"Jiang Shan, what do you mean by this? I think you don't want to keep your position as a leader of the Quyi Association anymore!"
Faced with Su Xuan's questioning, Jiang Shan naturally knew what she was talking about.
However, now that things have come to this, Jiang Shan naturally won't turn back.
Jiang Shan wasn't without connections either; Su Xuan couldn't possibly control him.
"Minister Su, this is a matter for our Quyi Association, and we have the right to make this decision!"
Jiang Shan also acted out of character. Although he was usually respectful to Su Xuan, he was not a member of the five major families.
Fundamentally, he also came from humble beginnings and belonged to the common people faction.
"Fine, I won't get involved in this matter anymore!"
Su Xuan sneered and hung up the phone. This Jiang Shan was really too arrogant.
However, this is also good, as it provides an opportunity to remove the president of the Commoner's Music Association and replace him with someone from one of the five major families.
Although Jiang Shan was not afraid of the five major families, he could only smile bitterly upon hearing Su Xuan's words.
He never expected that because of Li Tian, he would offend Su Xuan, which was really a case of losing more than he gained.
At this point, Jiang Shan was still unaware of the seriousness of the problem.
That same evening, videos of the "Butterfly Lovers" performance abroad were already circulating in China.
Many people who watched the clips exclaimed that the stage play was truly wonderful.
How come I've never seen this before?
Then more people saw the top trending post and discovered that such a stage play was unable to be commercially performed in China because of the China Quyi Artists Association.
No wonder Canglan Opera has become increasingly desolate over the years; it turns out it's all the work of these incompetent and lazy guys.
Following this, the villa in Beijing owned by Jiang Shan, the president of the Chinese Quyi Association, was exposed, as was the luxury car he drove.
Then another actress publicly accused Jiang Shan of sexual harassment, and she even provided video evidence.
When the actress came forward to testify against Jiang Shan, Li Tian was completely dumbfounded.
This really wasn't arranged by him; it just shows that Jiang Shan has a dirty hand.
However, those who knew Li Tian didn't think so, and A Xing immediately called Li Tian.
"Boss, your writing skills have really improved! This combination of a real-name report and video is definitely a powerful blow! I'm impressed! I've learned something new!"
Li Tian shouted his wish, but it really had nothing to do with him.
"Ah Xing, let me explain. I really didn't arrange this person. This has nothing to do with me..."
"Boss, you don't need to say anything, I understand! And remember to say this whenever anyone asks you a question! I'll hang up now!"
You understand?
What do you know?
You know!
He hung up?
Die!
Li Tian was still cursing when the phone rang again. It was Ye Lan calling.
"Great job! That was a brilliant move. Much better than your previous short essays. You've improved. I admire you!"
What a load of rubbish! Why don't you believe me at all?
Li Tian was truly on the verge of tears. "This has absolutely nothing to do with me. I don't even know this person..."
"Alright, that's enough. You don't need to explain anymore. This Jiang Shan isn't from one of the five great families; he belongs to the commoners' faction. Now let's see how those self-proclaimed incorruptible commoners are dealt with. Li Tian, you handled this matter beautifully! Even the old man praised you!"
