Chapter 155: Chapter 155 Can’t Fix Him_1

"Mr. Shen, what do you plan to do? Accept this offer?" Han Deming asked.

"How could I? It’s my asset, no one can take it away," Shen Dong made his stance clear.

"The other party is a big shot in the film industry, does Mr. Shen have a way to deal with him?" Du Zhenqi asked.

The other three curiously watched Shen Dong.

"You’ll see when the time comes. I have to go now, see you later." Shen Dong smiled faintly, not elaborating further, waved his hand, and left to find his wife.

Arriving at the gathering place of female celebrities, they all greeted Shen Dong: "Mr. Shen."

In this day and age, money is king.

Shen Dong was an investor, exactly the kind of person they wanted to make a connection with.

Just now, several female celebrities were all surrounding Chen Yuyan.

Having learned from Chen Yuyan that Shen Dong was also the boss of Dongyan Guild and Shuidilao, they became even more enthusiastic toward Chen Yuyan.

If Shen Dong weren’t married, they’d probably be sticking close to him right now.

Shen Dong simply smiled and nodded in response, not saying much, and looked at Chen Yuyan: "Wife, let’s go home."

Chen Yuyan immediately bid farewell to the others and joined Shen Dong’s side.

"Mr. Shen, it’s almost lunchtime, aren’t you going to eat before you go?" Xie Zhu asked, somewhat puzzled.

"There’s an urgent matter at the company that I need to take care of, so I won’t be staying for lunch, goodbye."

Shen Dong nodded slightly, taking Chen Yuyan with him as they left.

...

Zhu Zhiyong returned to the large conference room, where several bigwigs from the film industry were still there.

"Mr. Zhu, how did the talk go?" Tan Guangbei asked.

"It fell through. He insists on a forty percent stake and even said if they don’t give him the forty percent according to the priority investment agreement, he would sue and prevent The Battle Tiger from passing the review," Zhu Zhiyong said gravely.

Yan Wenlin frowned.

He hadn’t expected Shen Dong to not give an inch.

It seems that being a shareholder of Qianda Film and Television wasn’t something that could be taken lightly.

The others expressed their anger towards Shen Dong.

Only Wu Jin sighed silently, not saying anything.

In his heart, he was still on Shen Dong’s side.

In one sentence, it was Shen Dong’s investment that allowed him to bring The Battle Tiger to life.

Without Shen Dong, he wouldn’t be where he was today.

But often times, his own power was too small to be of any help to Shen Dong.

"You guys continue, I’ll step out for a moment,"

Wu Jin said and then left.

Zhu Zhiyong’s talk with Shen Dong had failed, and it was likely Shen Dong wouldn’t stay for lunch; he wanted to see him off.

"Mr. Yan, Shen Dong is a shareholder of your Qianda Film and Television, do you think you could persuade him to back down? I really don’t want to fall out with him as a last resort," Zhu Zhiyong said.

"Mr. Zhu, you’re kidding me. He’s a shareholder and I’m just an employee; you want me to persuade him?" Yan Wenlin shook his head with a wry smile.

This Zhu Zhiyong must have his head clamped by a door, or he must think very little of himself to come out with such a suggestion.

The others chuckled lightly as well.

They were at a loss for words concerning Zhu Zhiyong’s proposal.

Asking an employee to persuade a shareholder to give up interests was laughable indeed.

"Mr. Yan, then could you tell us how Shen Dong became a shareholder of your Qianda Film and Television?" Zhu Zhiyong asked again.

Although he knew it was unlikely that Yan Wenlin would divulge that, he still asked—just in case.

"Mr. Zhu, do you think I would tell you? If I told you, I wouldn’t just be out of a job now, I probably wouldn’t be able to stay in this industry anymore," Yan Wenlin replied with an eye roll.

Really, Zhu Zhiyong must think himself quite the fool.

Others looked at Zhu Zhiyong, once again speechless.

This guy had just asked Yan Wenlin to persuade Shen Dong and now he was asking Yan Wenlin to disclose Shen Dong’s situation.

He’s really terrible.

As Yan Wenlin had said, exposing Shen Dong’s situation would ensure that not a single company would dare to hire Yan Wenlin as an executive; Yan Wenlin’s future would be utterly ruined.

After all, which company would hire someone who leaks shareholder information as an executive?

This question should not even be asked.

Zhu Zhiyong gave an awkward smile, his question had been spurred by anger at Shen Dong’s arrogance and a bout of curiosity.

"Mr. Zhu, since Shen Dong won’t back down, what do you plan to do?" the boss of Le’an Film and Television asked, also providing Zhu Zhiyong with an out.

Zhu Zhiyong snorted coldly, "I don’t care if he is a shareholder of Qianda Film and Television or not, in the end, he is just a greenhorn. I refuse to believe that I can’t deal with him!"

He was a film industry magnate, so even if Shen Dong were a shareholder of Qianda Film and Television, he wasn’t afraid.

His intention was to make Shen Dong relinquish his shares, which was in the interest of Qianda Film and Television.

After all, if Shen Dong gave up his shares, Qianda Film and Television would also get a larger share.

He didn’t believe Qianda Film and Television would confront him for Shen Dong’s sake.

After all, he was only targeting Shen Dong, not Qianda Film and Television; they had no reason to oppose him.

As long as Qianda Film and Television didn’t intervene, dealing with Shen Dong would be a piece of cake.

...

Inside the venue.

Liu Chao saw Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan heading towards the exit and couldn’t help but wonder, "It’s almost time for lunch, why does it seem like Shen Dong is about to leave?"

Chen Yuting was by his side, also confused, and after thinking for a moment said, "Maybe there’s an emergency."

"What kind of emergency could he possibly have?" Liu Chao curled his lip, then suddenly grinned.

"What are you laughing at?" Chen Yuting asked.

"I know why they’re leaving," Liu Chao laughed.

"Why?" Chen Yuting inquired.

"Shen Dong must have been edged out by several film industry bigwigs and didn’t get the investment quota for The Battle Tiger 2, so he’s leaving."

"He didn’t even consider his place amongst all these major film industry figures. What makes him think he’s entitled to invest in The Battle Tiger 2?"

Liu Chao felt his guess must be right and was delighted inside.

"That’s just your speculation," Chen Yuting remarked, somewhat skeptical.

"My speculation is right, otherwise, he wouldn’t have left," Liu Chao confidently declared.

Chen Yuting didn’t respond but simply watched as Shen Dong, holding Chen Yuyan’s hand, left the venue.

Exiting the hotel.

Chen Yuyan asked, "Hubby, why are we in such a rush to leave?"

She didn’t believe Shen Dong’s previous statement to Xie Zhu about urgent company business; she was certain there was another reason.

"The Battle Tiger 2 is being planned, and regarding my investment quota..." Shen Dong briefly explained the situation.

"Hubby, you had a first dibs investment agreement, and they didn’t honor it. That’s way too domineering. What’s the point of the contract then?" fumed Chen Yuyan.

"For a film industry tycoon like Zhu Zhiyong, it’s easy to find ways to sidestep such investment agreements," Shen Dong said.

Strength is king; otherwise, you’re just clay in their hands.

"So what do we do? Just give up?" Chen Yuyan asked.

"Impossible. What’s mine is mine, and no one can take it away," Shen Dong shook his head.

"Have you thought of a way?" Chen Yuyan inquired.

"Of course, if this were the past when I had nothing, indeed, I could do nothing. But now, I have some capital, I’m not someone they can just push around."

A cold light flashed in Shen Dong’s eyes; he had already figured out what to do.
