Chapter 163: Chapter 163: Hurry Up and Cook_1
Huya Live Streaming, Liu Chao’s office.
Liu Chao received a call from Tan Guangbei, the general manager of Le’an Film Company, who said that Shen Dong had already obtained the rights to "The Battle Tiger" and "The Battle Tiger 2," as well as forty percent of the investment quota for "The Battle Tiger 2."
If everything goes as expected, "The Battle Tiger 2" will surely net Shen Dong a huge profit.
Liu Chao really hadn’t imagined that even a film industry mogul like Zhu Zhiyong would cave in front of Shen Dong.
Because Le’an Film and Television didn’t have the strength of the other companies, they were excluded and missed out on investing in "The Battle Tiger 2."
As a shareholder of Le’an Film and Television, Wansheng Venture Capital also missed the chance to share in the profits of "The Battle Tiger 2."
Tan Guangbei had been told this by one of the investors of "The Battle Tiger 2."
This fact made Liu Chao feel even more annoyed.
He had previously sworn to Chen Yuting that Shen Dong was just a weakling, with no qualification to invest in "The Battle Tiger 2" in front of a big shot like Zhu Zhiyong.
Now, he had been proven wrong again.
Every time it involved Shen Dong, he had been slapped in the face repeatedly, so much that he couldn’t count the number of times it happened.
"I can’t let Chen Yuting find out about this, or else it’ll be even more impossible for her to become my girlfriend."
Liu Chao muttered to himself.
Even a film industry mogul like Zhu Zhiyong had to capitulate in front of Shen Dong.
If Chen Yuting found out that he was wrong again and Shen Dong once again demonstrated stronger capabilities,
Chen Yuting would probably regret leaving Shen Dong even more and look down on him.
...
The Dong Family’s home.
Chen Yuting returned home from work, humming a tune and seeming to be in a good mood.
Feng Lijuan was watching television on the sofa. Seeing her daughter so cheerful, she asked, "Yuting, is there something good happening?"
Chen Yuting went to put her bag back in her room before coming out and said joyfully, "Mom, our guild has collaborated with Le’an Film and Television. Recently, a lot of celebrities have come to our guild for live streaming and sales, and our sales have surpassed Dongyan Guild, making us number one on Doule."
Liu Chao had shared his idea with Tan Guangbei, the general manager of Le’an Film and Television, on the day of "The Battle Tiger"’s celebration party,
which was to have celebrities do live stream sales on Huya Guild.
This was the solution Liu Chao had come up with to break through their predicament.
As Wansheng Venture Capital was a major shareholder of Le’an Film and Television, Tan Guangbei naturally wouldn’t refuse and immediately agreed to arrange for their celebrities to sell goods on live streams at Huya Guild.
Huya Guild was the first to experiment with celebrities doing live stream sales, and the results were surprisingly good.
Now the guild’s total sales had exceeded Dongyan Guild, making them the top on Doule.
Seeing how well Huya Guild was doing, Doule even lifted the traffic support restrictions against them, providing a certain level of traffic assistance.
After all, it was all about making money, and Doule would naturally not turn their back on it.
Of course, the outside world was unaware of these developments.
"I see." Feng Lijuan nodded, happy for her daughter as the development of the guild would increase Chen Yuting’s income.
"In the world of live streaming, as long as you can grasp the audience’s psyche, you don’t have to worry about not making money." Chen Yuting sat down beside her mother and said, "Mom, I’m hungry. Go make dinner, please."
"Yuting, there’s something I need to tell you first," Feng Lijuan suddenly said seriously.
"What is it?" asked Chen Yuting.
"I’ve decided to divorce Dong Qikang. Do you have any objections?" Feng Lijuan asked.
"No objections," Chen Yuting shook her head.
Throughout her life, she had never felt fatherly love from Dong Qikang, nor sibling affection from Dong Junjie.
From her first day in this family, Dong Qikang and his son Dong Junjie had been cold and indifferent toward her, showing no care at all.
As a child, whenever Dong Junjie made a mistake, he would pin the blame on her, and Dong Qikang would always believe Dong Junjie’s word over hers.
If she tried to argue, it would bring on abuse from Dong Qikang.
When Dong Qikang cursed at her, she could still see Dong Junjie’s smug smile.
That’s why she never considered this place home.
At this house, whenever she faced Dong Qikang and his son, she always spoke little.
Feng Lijuan wanted to divorce Dong Qikang, and she naturally had no objections.
Actually, she had long wanted to leave this house, but she had no money and no way out.
Working at the insurance company before didn’t pay much; if she wanted to rent a place, she could only afford a poor place in the suburbs.
This wasn’t what she wanted.
Now as the vice president of the Huya Guild, her monthly salary was enough to rent a nice apartment in an ordinary neighborhood in the city.
She had already planned to look for a place this weekend.
Even if her mother didn’t divorce Dong Qikang, she was going to move out.
"Good, as long as you support Mom, that’s enough," Feng Lijuan was very pleased with her daughter’s response.
"Mom, after you divorce Dong Qikang, do you plan to go find Dad?" Chen Yuting asked.
"Yes, I’ve been thinking about that..." Feng Lijuan was about to share her thoughts.
Before she could finish, the door opened; Dong Qikang and his son had returned.
Both of their faces looked rather ugly.
Especially Dong Qikang, who looked as if his parents had died.
Xingwang Hotpot had already closed down and was going through subsequent processing.
He was still the deputy general manager at the company, but many matters were no longer entrusted to him.
In other words, he was almost like an idle person.
Every day in the office, besides dealing with the leftover tasks of Xingwang Hotpot, there was nothing else for him to do.
He knew that the boss assigning his work to someone else meant he was being urged to resign.
That way, the company wouldn’t have to pay any sort of severance.
If he didn’t resign voluntarily, the boss might take other measures to force him out.
"Dad, you did so much for the company, and just because the hotpot shop’s plan failed, the boss is forcing you out – that’s too heartless," Dong Junjie indignantly said.
"Junjie, you’ve been working for years, how can you still say such things? Which boss would want an employee that loses the company money? Let’s not talk about this anymore. If I resign, your time at the company won’t be pleasant either. It’s better to think carefully about what to do next," Dong Qikang said in a somewhat disappointed tone, reprimanding his son.
"Dad, can’t I just not talk about it?" Dong Junjie was still upset inside.
When the two entered the living room and saw Feng Lijuan and her daughter sitting on the sofa, then glanced at the dining table, Dong Qikang furrowed his brow, "Didn’t make dinner?"
Previously, whenever he returned home, Feng Lijuan would have dinner ready.
The table would be set with bowls and chopsticks.
In this regard, Feng Lijuan had always done quite well.
As soon as Dong Qikang got home, there was always a hot meal waiting for him.
In this respect, Dong Qikang was quite satisfied.
However, today there were no bowls or chopsticks set on the table.
"Yes, I didn’t make dinner," Feng Lijuan said.
"Then what are you sitting there for? Hurry up and cook, make a few extra dishes. Junjie and I want to drink some wine today," Dong Qikang was already in a foul mood, and upon hearing that Feng Lijuan really hadn’t cooked, he scolded her.
"I don’t feel like cooking. If you want to eat, cook it yourself," Feng Lijuan said indifferently.
Dong Qikang’s brow furrowed.
He finally sensed that something was amiss.
To be precise, Feng Lijuan was behaving abnormally.
You should know, Feng Lijuan never dared to speak to him like this before.
