Chapter 622: Chapter 624: The World’s Cold Indifference, As People Leave, The Tea Cools

Dong Tianhua stormed out, and the venue of the evening party suddenly quieted down.

It seemed as if everyone was still not over the shock, unprepared for what had just happened.

However, not even half a minute later in the silence, a man walked up to Qin Tian and Zhou Minghong, clasped his hands in greeting, his face openly displaying dissatisfaction and disdain right in front of Qin Tian.

"President Qin, President Zhou, I just remembered I have something else to attend to. I’m leaving now, goodbye," the man said, then turned and walked out without looking back.

He was quite close to Dong Tianhua.

"President Qin, I also have something to attend to, I’m leaving now, goodbye."

"President Zhou, I’ve had enough to eat; I’m leaving now too, goodbye."

"President Zhou, I forgot to bring my wife when I left home, she hasn’t eaten yet, I’m going back first."

"My pet dog hasn’t eaten tonight yet, I need to go feed it. I’ll be leaving first, goodbye."

After one person started, the others followed suit, each making their excuses to leave.

Originally, there were twelve people sitting at Qin Tian’s table, but in a flash, only six including Qin Tian and Zhou Minghong were left.

"We’ve offended Liao Entertainment, so these people are fair-weather friends, immediately disassociating themselves from us to avoid being implicated when Liao Entertainment retaliates and harms their interests,"

Zhou Minghong whispered into Qin Tian’s ear, seeing the surprise in his eyes.

Yes, Qin Tian had crossed the entertainment magnate Liao Zhihua and his company Liao Entertainment; retaliation was certainly forthcoming. Now, those still allied with Qin Tian would likely be implicated as well.

Therefore, those who were still toasting and acting chummy with Qin Tian just moments ago suddenly changed their demeanor and left with a sneer, not taking even a cloud with them as they waved their sleeves.

These people were indeed opportunistic and self-serving!

Qin Tian stood there, smiling faintly as he watched these people leave, not saying a word.

Finally, even Li Dakuan stood up from another table, straightened his back and said to Qin Tian and Zhou Minghong, "President Qin, President Zhou, tonight’s incident... you really went and did it. Now that you’ve offended Liao Entertainment, our collaboration... I think it needs to be put on hold."

He looked at Qin Tian: "President Qin, you instigated this issue. Our Xingsheng Investment already invested three million in the ’Sword and Saber’ project early on, but now, I want to terminate this project, because of your actions."

Li Dakuan looked at Qin Tian and smiled, "So, shouldn’t you return the three million I invested?"

"President Li, this request is a bit excessive,"

Before Qin Tian could speak, Zhou Minghong frowned, "Now that everyone is turning away from Tianyun Entertainment, and you have already collaborated with us, are you planning to stab us in the back?"

"Humph, President Zhou, you can’t say it like that," Li Dakuan patted Zhou Minghong’s shoulder, "Businesspeople are definitely here to make money. I indeed saw potential in the ’Sword and Saber’ project, at least enough to recover the cost. But now, President Qin has publicly disrespected Liao Entertainment and directly insulted Mr. Liao Zhihua, do you think Tianyun Entertainment has a future?"

"Not to mention ’Sword and Saber’, the project won’t even make it into the cinemas. Humph, if it’s not going to be screened, what’s there to talk about making money?"

With a mocking expression, Li Dakuan said, "Let’s leave it at that, return our money. From now on, we go our separate ways, I wish Tianyun Entertainment good luck, heh heh."

"You want to pull out, fine, but returning the money, no way!"

Qin Tian spoke, "There should be a clause in the contract about compensation for unilateral termination. Li Dakuan, if you choose to back out now, it’s not about us refunding your money. We would claim damages from you. Understand?"

Qin Tian raised his eyebrows and sneered at Li Dakuan, "Go back and learn some contract law before you come here trying to act tough!"

At that moment, the venue was quiet. When Qin Tian yelled at Li Dakuan, Xie Zirong, who was at a distant table, walked over and shouted at Qin Tian, "Qin Tian, don’t be arrogant. Your good days are over!"

This shrew, who had been smiling flirtatiously and making eyes at Qin Tian just a moment ago, now turned with the wind and started yelling at Qin Tian directly.

Seeing Qin Tian offend Liao Entertainment, Xie Zirong took delight in his misfortune and wanted to kick him while he was down!

"Security, throw them out!"

Qin Tian, annoyed, called the security to throw Li Dakuan and Xie Zirong out. Just as Li Dakuan was about to leave, Qin Tian said to him, "Mr. Li, remember, you won’t be able to get out without paying compensation. Otherwise, we’ll go through legal proceedings!"

"Qin Tian, you... you are shameless!"

Li Dakuan yelled, then in front of everyone, the security escorted him out, utterly disgraced.

Once Li Dakuan and Xie Zirong were thrown out, Qin Tian swept his gaze across the people at the venue and nodded solemnly, "If anyone else wants to leave, you can do so now. Whether it’s a partner company or a contracted artist who thinks Tianyun Entertainment has no future, you can leave now. Everything will be handled according to the contract. I, Qin Tian, won’t hold anyone back!"

Qin Tian, clenching his teeth and showing a fierce expression, said, "But those of you who want to leave, remember, once you step out of this door today, you will no longer be a friend of Tianyun Entertainment, and there will never be a chance for cooperation! Anyone who wants to leave, may leave now!"

After Qin Tian spoke these infuriated words, people in the venue immediately started to move.

Before long, whether it was investment firms or some artists, most had left, and even some upper-middle managers of Tianyun Entertainment Company left three people.

These people, intimidated by Liao Entertainment and not optimistic about Tianyun Entertainment, were driven solely by profit and abandoned Qin Tian and Tianyun Entertainment Company at this critical moment.

About half an hour later, there was no one left walking out of the venue.

At that point, the venue, which originally had more than one hundred forty people, was eerily empty, with only about forty people remaining, including Qin Tian.

You could say it was a case of ’once the guests are gone, so is the warmth of the tea.’

"Anyone else wants to leave? If you don’t leave now, you won’t get another chance," Qin Tian scanned the crowd and said.

"We won’t leave; we’ll stick with Mr. Qin."

"Yes, we’ll stay at Tianyun Entertainment!"

The people who had stayed said.

Qin Tian looked around; among those still in the venue, he recognized only a few, including Zhou Minghong, Liu Fei’er, Wang Han, and a few other executives from Tianyun Entertainment.

Besides that, the male and female celebrities introduced by Zhou Minghong as most famous had all left!

Of the well-known celebrities who had attended the venue that evening, only Su Yuyan and Gao Zijun, a male and a female, had not left. They could only be considered second-tier celebrities, while the rest had gone.

Qin Tian looked at Liu Fei’er, then at Su Yuyan and Gao Zijun, and nodded, "Good, good. Now, the official artists of our company are Su Yuyan, Gao Zijun, and Liu Fei’er, just you three!"

"I will remember today’s events. I, Qin Tian, swear, today, you chose to stay and help me; in return, I will guarantee you a bright future! I will keep my word!"
