Chapter 176: Chapter 176 The Eternal Pain in My Heart_1

"Director Xu, are you saying that you’re going to use those actors?" Shen Dong asked with a smile.

"Use them, of course, use them. Such good actors must be used, not one less. Even if I were to look for them myself, I couldn’t find actors like these," Xu Zheng replied hastily.

"That’s good," Shen Dong said smiling.

After a few more exchanges, they ended the call.

...

Dongyan Guild.

In the live streaming room of brothers Yang Xiaoming and Yang Xiaobai, a first-tier male celebrity appeared.

Originally, the brothers’ live streaming room already had tens of millions of fans, and their sales during live stream selling were the highest in the guild.

With the addition of the celebrity effect, their sales broke records in one fell swoop.

After just one live stream, sales exceeded two billion.

Stars from Jiahua Film and Television appeared one after another in other hosts’ live streaming rooms as well.

The sales from their stream selling all broke their historical records.

It was a joyous occasion for everyone involved.

...

Wansheng Venture Capital.

General Manager’s office.

Liu Chao was talking to his father Liu Jianping.

He had come today to report on the recent developments of the Huya Guild to his father.

Suddenly, his phone rang.

Seeing that the call was from Chen Yuting, he answered immediately.

His expression soured quickly.

"How could this be? Wasn’t Shen Dong at odds with Zhu Zhiyong from Jiahua Film and Television? How could they still collaborate?"

Liu Chao’s face was filled with disbelief.

The two sides had fought so fiercely before; they should’ve been mortal enemies by right. How could they have started to work together?

This made no sense at all.

If Dongyan Guild was cooperating with another film and TV company, he wouldn’t be so surprised.

But to cooperate with Jiahua Film and Television, he truly couldn’t believe it.

After all, Shen Dong had exposed the dark secrets of a Jiahua Film and Television star, effectively ruining their career; Jiahua Film and Television suffered heavy losses.

Under such circumstances, Zhu Zhiyong should hate Shen Dong to his very bones.

Even if he agreed to give Shen Dong the investment quota for The Battle Tiger 2, Zhu Zhiyong must have utterly despised Shen Dong in his heart.

And yet, they collaborated.

This was completely beyond his comprehension.

"They indeed collaborated," Chen Yuting said.

When she received the news, she couldn’t believe it either. After several confirmations, she was sure it was true.

Liu Chao had misjudged the situation once again.

"Let them collaborate. It must be Shen Dong who bent over backwards to initiate the collaboration with Jiahua Film and Television, offering them a high percentage of the profits, maybe even eighty or ninety percent. Dongyan Guild definitely won’t be making much money," Liu Chao regained his composure and speculated.

"It shouldn’t be possible, as Dongyan Guild is still selling those products, If they are giving 80 or 90 percent, there wouldn’t be much profit left, so it’s better not to cooperate. Based on my understanding of Shen Dong, he wouldn’t possibly do this," Chen Yuting argued.

Hearing this, Liu Chao was at a loss for words.

Indeed, it was like that, it wasn’t worth cooperating with Jiahua Film and Television if there was no substantial profit.

Only a fool would do such a thing.

Clearly, Shen Dong was no fool, otherwise he wouldn’t have become the boss of both the Dongyan Guild and Shuidilao.

"I got it," Liu Chao said just that and then hung up the phone, his face full of gloom.

"What’s wrong?" Liu Jianping asked.

"Dad, I just got a message..." Liu Chao explained the situation.

"It’s normal for both sides to cooperate, there’s nothing to make a fuss about," Li Jianping said.

"How is it normal? Both parties had a fierce fight last time, and Jiahua Film and Television suffered heavy losses," Liu Chao said, puzzled.

"In business, there are only eternal interests, no eternal friends or enemies, don’t you even understand that?" Liu Jianping was disappointed in his son.

"I understand that, but even so, why would Jiahua Film and Television choose Dongyan Guild? The products selected by Dongyan Guild are low-profit. They would make much more by choosing a guild like Huya Guild instead of Dongyan Guild. Why does Jiahua Film and Television insist on choosing Dongyan Guild?"

This was what Liu Chao found perplexing.

"If I were Zhu Zhiyong, I’d choose Dongyan Guild too," Liu Jianping said.

"Why?" Liu Chao became even more confused.

"Because Dongyan Guild’s development is the most stable, with no chance of mishaps."

"I’ve been busy with other matters recently and haven’t paid attention to Huya Guild’s development. What’s Huya Guild like now?"

After listening to Liu Chao’s report just now, Liu Jianping knew that Huya Guild’s development had already gone off track.

He hadn’t had the chance to talk about this yet, and now was the perfect opportunity to have a serious discussion with Liu Chao.

"Dad, what’s wrong with our Huya Guild? Isn’t it developing pretty well?" Liu Chao asked, full of confusion.

"Developing well?" Liu Jianping looked at his son with even greater disappointment. "The guild’s development has deviated. The goods being sold vary in quality, and most have quality issues. Consumers are not satisfied."

Liu Chao didn’t take it seriously: "So what? Everyone’s doing it anyway."

He didn’t see it as an issue, thinking that everyone was doing the same and that Huya Guild was just one of many.

"If you keep thinking like this, you won’t be able to really strengthen and enlarge the guild," Liu Jianping said, shaking his head in disappointment.

"Dad, I think making money is the most important thing. Since everyone is making money this way, there’s no need to worry so much. We have contracts with the manufacturers. If there are product quality issues, consumers should look for the manufacturers, not our guild," Liu Chao said.

"Even if they don’t come after the guild, if this chaos continues, Doule will definitely regulate it. And even if Doule doesn’t, the state will step in, and ultimately the guild will be affected," Liu Jianping said.

"Then we’ll deal with that when it happens. Everything is unknown right now; as long as we’re making money, that’s all that matters," Liu Chao replied nonchalantly.

"You should quickly find someone to deal with Huya Guild’s shares. If we handle it now, we can still make a profit. If we wait until the regulation begins, we’re likely to not make any money," Liu Jianping said.

"Dad, that’s just your guess. I don’t think there’s any need to worry," Liu Chao was reluctant to deal with Huya Guild’s shares.

Selling products through live streaming earns a profit of over two million a day, amounting to sixty or seventy million a month.

Wansheng Venture Capital is the largest shareholder of Huya Guild, making thirty or forty million a month.

He really wasn’t willing to sell now.

"Xiaochao, I’ve been in the business world for over twenty years. These kinds of things can be predicted, and they are bound to happen. You won’t go wrong listening to me. Sell the shares as soon as possible. Last year, with the Ghana Gold Mine Project, I missed the opportunity to make a fortune because I hesitated and listened to you," Liu Jianping said with regret.

By the end, Liu Jianping’s heart was filled with remorse.

The Ghana Gold Mine Project was an eternal pain in his heart.

Initially, he could have made a billion in just one month.

Listening to his son’s flattery, he missed such a big opportunity to make money.
