Chapter 575 - 572: Have Your President Come See Me! [Second Update]
CHAPTER 575: CHAPTER 572: HAVE YOUR PRESIDENT COME SEE ME! [SECOND UPDATE]
Shangri-La, the leading name in the hotel industry, boasts top-notch luxurious decor that’s simply breathtaking.
Many of the girls present were experiencing such a high-class venue for the first time and were all staring agape, with intense envy towards Anjin.
However, for Ye Chuxue, such an occasion was nothing new, and her expression remained undisturbed.
Even Lan Huanxi hardly showed any sign of amazement on her face.
This made Anjin feel a bit sulky!
"Order whatever you want to eat or drink, it’s on me!"
As Anjin spoke, she flaunted the glittering VIP membership card in her hand.
Upon seeing the card, the hotel manager scurried over to welcome them with all sorts of flattery and ushered them into VIP Room 302.
Although it’s within the hotel, the room was surprisingly spacious, spanning over 300 square meters and equipped with various entertainment facilities.
Just like Room 302, there was also a party going on next door in Room 301.
But it appeared to be several notches higher in class.
It wasn’t just executives from entertainment companies present there, but also plenty of well-known hosts and directors. Even A-list celebrities often seen on the screen were in attendance. One could say, half of the entertainment industry’s heavyweights were gathered there.
"Director Liu, I just saw several girls from the Art Department of Jiangnan University. They must have been invited by you, right? Why not let them come over here so Mr. Long can check out their talents? If there are any outstanding ones, they might just get signed by Huayu Entertainment on the spot!"
Secretary Wang adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and smiled at Liu Xin.
He had seen several beautiful girls enter Room 302 while he was on the phone at the entrance. Some of these girls had looks comparable to top actresses. Mr. Long couldn’t possibly entertain them all by himself in one evening. As his personal secretary, he was ready to share some of the burden.
Moreover, seeing how Liu Xin was becoming more competent, he wanted to give her a bit of a leg up.
However, Liu Xin was completely bewildered.
Before coming here, she had mysteriously streaked in the street, and her mood had plummeted to rock bottom. Thus, to avoid embarrassment, she came alone without inviting any other girls.
Of course, she couldn’t say these things out loud. Otherwise, it would make Secretary Wang lose face.
With no other choice, she had to play along with Secretary Wang’s words.
"Those girls are too noisy, I was worried they might affect everyone’s mood. So I didn’t let them come over, and opened a separate room next door instead!"
"You know how it is with young people, spirited and lively, brimming with youthful energy. It’s in their nature!"
This time, it was Long Xiaoying who spoke.
He was Long Xiaodie’s younger brother, a collateral member often overlooked in the Long Family.
It was completely unexpected that after Immortal Master Li decimated the Dragon Family Ancestor, his sister would rise in prominence and take over Huayu Entertainment, becoming a significant player in the capital market. After much pestering, he also managed to become a nominal deputy general manager.
Though as a deputy general manager, he didn’t hold much real power, he still had to be given face by directors and hosts because of his connection to Long Xiaodie.
Due to his own influence, he had managed to secure opportunities for many newcomers.
But of course, he was no saint.
For those newcomers with no background who wished to enter the entertainment industry, they had to come to his bed if they wanted his help.
Having heard Mr. Long’s direct order, Liu Xin immediately felt the pressure of being caught in a difficult position.
After hesitating for a moment, she decided to gauge the situation. If all else failed, she would make an emergency call to invite a few girls over.
No matter what, she had to latch onto Huayu Entertainment’s resources that evening.
With a nervous heart, Liu Xin knocked on the door of Room 302.
The person who opened the door was Anjin.
She had initially hoped the knock would be from Moha, the African Prince she had long been waiting for, but to her utmost surprise, it was Liu Xin.
"Mr. Liu, why is it you?"
Seeing Anjin, Liu Xin’s heart surged with joy.
"Anjin, it’s you guys, come help your teacher with something!"
While speaking, she glanced inside again. Seeing several high-value girls from their art department there, her delight was even greater.
However, when her eyes fell upon Li Chen also in the room, it was as if she had seen a ghost, and she couldn’t help but shudder.
"Ah, isn’t that Director Liu? So you’re here too!"
Li Chen, utterly bored inside, saw Liu Xin and decided to find some amusement.
"Don’t come here, don’t come over!"
Upon seeing Li Chen walking towards her, Liu Xin’s face was filled with panic. She took two steps back subconsciously. Her arms were crossed over her chest, as if frightened he would make her run naked again.
Witnessing this scene, everyone present was taken aback. They couldn’t understand why their department director was so afraid of a student?
Just then, Secretary Wang came over with a grim look on his face and rebuked Liu Xin in a low voice.
"Director Liu, what’s going on? Why have you kept Mr. Long and the others waiting for so long?"
Seeing Secretary Wang arrive, Liu Xin gained some confidence. She quickly pointed at Li Chen and said angrily, "Secretary Wang, this student from our school insists on blocking the door and won’t let me in!"
Secretary Wang sized up Li Chen and, out of habit, handed over a business card.
"Young man, I am the president’s secretary from Huayu Entertainment. We want to sign a few new talents, what do you mean by blocking the door?"
Li Chen barely glanced at the business card, didn’t even take it, and simply knocked it to the ground.
"Have your president come to see me!"
Secretary Wang, seeing a student dare to disregard him like this, was somewhat annoyed.
"Young man, we are Huayu Entertainment, do you realize what you are doing?"
Li Chen couldn’t be bothered with him and repeated his cold words.
"Have your president come to see me, I’m in a bad mood, I don’t want to repeat it a third time!"
Before his words fell, he stepped forward and broke Secretary Wang’s arm.
Secretary Wang immediately clutched his arm and let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"Who dares to be so bold, looking for death? Dare to attack my people?"
As he spoke, Long Xiaoying stepped out of room 301, surrounded by a group of people.
He had previously relied on the authority of the Long Family to collect a number of underlings. Although they weren’t presentable, he was somewhat of a bully in Hang City. Thus, his voice and walk were full of worldly might.
However, when he saw Li Chen, the tiger instantly turned into a mouse. Even slightly drunk before, he immediately sobered up. His beefy face also turned pale in an instant.
Secretary Wang had never seen Li Chen, but he had, twice.
The first time was when Li Chen killed the Dragon Family Ancestor and single-handedly forced their whole Long Family into submission.
The second time was when he carried the head of his second brother, Long Wujiang, to their door, nearly driving his elder brother, Long Wuhen, to his grave.
"Mr. Long, this student has no idea of the immensity of heaven and earth. When I tried to reason with him, he started hitting me without a word. You must stand up for me!"
Seeing his master arrive, Secretary Wang immediately spilled his grievances and even managed to squeeze out two tears from under his gold-rimmed glasses.
Liu Xin also looked gleefully at the misfortune, as she had previously learned about Long Xiaoying’s background.
This Mr. Long used to be a figure in the underworld, and was rumored to be a Martial Artist. Though now he sported a general’s belly-making walking difficult, taking on eight or ten men alone wasn’t a problem for him; he was a respected underworld figure in Hang City.
Now Li Chen had hit his man, wasn’t that like courting death?
The girls who came with Li Chen were also scared when they heard the other party was Mr. Long from Huayu Entertainment.
But their concern was not for Li Chen, but for their own futures.
What girl doesn’t dream of being a star, especially those studying performing arts?
Huayu Entertainment is now growing extremely fast, with formidable capital, and has promoted numerous top-tier stars, being a giant in the entertainment industry.
If Li Chen offended Huayu Entertainment, they might also become collateral damage. If they were implicated by him, their future prospects in the entertainment industry would be difficult indeed.
With this in mind, many girls earnestly tried to persuade Li Chen to apologize to Mr. Long, to minimize a big issue to a small one, and to let bygones be bygones.
Even some influential girls consciously moved back, distancing themselves as much as possible from Li Chen, to indicate they were not acquainted with him.
Li Chen sneered and said proudly, "You want me to apologize to that fat man? Go ask him if he dares to accept it."
Seeing Li Chen acting like he was courting death, Liu Xin looked triumphant and snorted indignantly.
"Hmph, young people just don’t understand how high the sky is or how deep the earth is. Don’t think that just because you have some ability, you can act recklessly. Let me tell you, some people are ones you should never offend your entire life!"
