Rebirth of the Golden Chaebol

Chapter 282 Never bet with you again

Liu Sisi's heart sank, "What's going on?"

"At midnight last night, He Zhenying was caught taking drugs."

"What?"

Suddenly, Liu Sisi's mind went blank. How could this happen?

Seeing this, Liu Xinxiong grabbed the phone and asked: "Who do you think was caught taking drugs?"

"The popular actor He Zhenying, the male protagonist of our movie..."

Liu Xinxiong was dumbfounded. The male protagonist was caught taking drugs. You can imagine the fate of this movie.

At this moment, Liu Xinxiong thought of what Li Xinghe said, and suddenly seemed to understand something.

An expert is indeed an expert. If he hadn't been afraid of Li Xinghe, he would have postponed the release date by one day. Now the movie is being released and he can't withdraw it even if he wants to.

It cannot be withdrawn. Once the news breaks out, it will definitely be boycotted by all parties, and the movie will be completely finished.

Just thinking about this result, Liu Xinxiong's back felt cold and he broke into a cold sweat.

"Hurry up and get the public relations department into action. This news must be suppressed!"

Liu Sisi shouted anxiously.

"Mr. Liu, I'm afraid I can't suppress it anymore!"

There was a bit of crying in the manager's voice, and he said sadly: "This time we want to set an example. We have personally reported this matter, and the online news has already exploded!"

"What?"

Liu Sisi frowned and immediately turned on her computer to check the news. Sure enough, no matter what type of news it was, the headlines were all about He Zhenying being caught taking drugs. This time, he was completely unable to turn over.

"how so?"

Liu Sisi staggered a few steps and fell into a chair. Before she could fully recover, her cell phone rang again.

"Mr. Liu, other investors require immediate withdrawal of shares to reduce losses. This..."

Compared to Liu Sisi who was in a state of despair, Liu Xinxiong had already been mentally prepared, so he immediately picked up the phone and said, "Cancel the show!"

"yes!"

Fortunately, Liu Xinxiong had made preparations beforehand, and the withdrawal was very fast. After notifying major theaters, the official also announced the withdrawal. For a while, the news about this movie and the best actor He Zhenying has been in the news headlines and hot searches.

It can't be pressed down even if it is pressed up.

As the largest investment company that invited He Zhenying to participate in the film, Liu Group has also become the target of verbal criticism from netizens.

Obviously the Liu Group is also a victim, but netizens don't care about that. Just scolding He Zhenying is no longer enough to quell public anger. The capital behind it is the initiator.

For a time, the media companies under the Liu Group were involved in this controversy, and their reputation also declined. Many partners and investors kept their distance appropriately, and even planned to give up investment cooperation.

Xingman Investment Company, Xu Yiman is constantly refreshing the news and netizen comments, her delicate and beautiful face is full of surprise.

"Oh my God! The Liu Group has probably suffered heavy losses again."

Li Xinghe stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gently shaking the red wine glass.

"It's been two days, it's almost time."

"Um?

What did you say?"

Xu Yiman said doubtfully.

As soon as he finished speaking, the cell phone on the table rang.

Xu Yiman glanced at the screen and said in surprise: "Xinghe, it's Liu Xinxiong..."

"Um."

Li Xinghe smiled lightly and stepped forward to answer the phone.

"Is this him you're talking about?"

"What do you think?"

Li Xinghe answered the call with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Liu."

"Mr. Li, I happen to be in Qingbei on business. Do you have time at noon?

I want to treat you to dinner."

"Yeah, okay."

After setting the time and place, Li Xinghe hung up the phone.

"At this time, Liu Xinxiong happened to come to Qingbei for business?"

Xu Yiman pouted, "Why do I feel that it's not a coincidence, but that I came to Qingbei specifically to find you!"

"Haha...my woman is so smart."

Li Xinghe pinched Xu Yiman's cheek lovingly.

"The capture of the Liu Group's media company will probably only happen in the next few days, so you have to prepare well."

"Are you so confident?"

Xu Yiman smiled sweetly.

"That is required."

"How much money do I need to prepare?"

Li Xinghe thought for a while, "Two hundred million!"

"ah?"

Xu Yiman was shocked, "After all, it's the Liu Group, and you want to acquire his media company for only 200 million?"

"Well, that's enough."

Xu Yiman curled his lips, as if he didn't believe it.

"how?

Still want to bet with me?"

Li Xinghe joked.

"I do not want it!"

Xu Yiman's face suddenly turned red and she said shyly: "I will never bet with you again."

"Ha ha……"

Li Xinghe laughed proudly, Fu Er stepped forward and whispered: "Anyway, you can't run away this time."

"I won't tell you anymore."

Xu Yiman shyly pushed Li Xinghe away and ran out of the office.

At noon, Li Xinghe arrived at the appointed private room at Xinlong Hotel, and Liu Xinxiong was already waiting in the private room.

"Hello, Mr. Li, we meet again."

Liu Xinxiong smiled and stood up to greet him.

It seems to be just a small inadvertent move, but it is enough to illustrate Liu Xinxiong's attitude towards Li Xinghe at this time.

"Mr. Liu."

The two of them sat down one after another, and the waiter quickly brought out the dishes, leaving only two people in the private room.

"Mr. Li, I'd like to toast you with this drink."

Liu Xinxiong raised his glass and said sincerely: "Thanks to Mr. Li's vigilance this time, our big-budget movie can be saved."

"Mr. Liu, you're welcome."

The two of them clinked glasses and drank in one gulp.

"I said this is to repay Mr. Liu for his previous generosity."

Li Xinghe smiled and said: "If Mr. Liu could have believed in me earlier, then the money spent on early publicity and promotion could have been saved."

Speaking of this, Liu Xinxiong couldn't help but feel depressed.

Just because he didn't trust Li Xinghe, Liu Xinxiong did not stop the film's promotional activities. In order to get the real power, Liu Sisi spent a lot of money on this promotion, which totaled tens of millions.

The money is not much, but things are troublesome.

Liu Xinxiong had been disturbed by this incident recently and couldn't sleep well. After thinking about it, he decided to come to Li Xinghe.

"Mr. Li's Zhouyi Bagua technique is really powerful. I didn't expect this."

After a pause, Liu Xinxiong continued: "Mr. Li, today I would like to ask you to help me calculate again. Is it possible for this movie to turn around?"

After all, it is a movie that the Liu family invested hundreds of millions in, so it is a pity to give up like this. However, He Zhenying has been arrested and will not be released in a short time. Do we have to suppress the movie indefinitely?

Even if the Liu family doesn't care, other co-investors won't give up. In short, this movie is now a hot potato that can't be thrown away and is annoying to hold in your hands.

"This movie..."

Li Xinghe frowned, "It is difficult to turn over, and Mr. Liu, what you should be worried about now is not this movie, but the media company of your Liu Group. Affected by this incident, I am afraid that the media company will become the Liu Group."

a burden."

In fact, even if Li Xinghe didn't say it, Liu Xinxiong still feels this way now.
