Chapter 047 We Are No Longer a Gang
"Kim Seung-hoon, what do you mean!"
"Bang!"
"You talk too much nonsense!" The frail Director An was kicked to the ground by the bearded man in a suit. The man in the suit was Huang Chenghu, who had just remitted 5 million yuan to his family yesterday. At this moment, this guy also had a look of disdain on his face. It was not because he was uncomfortable with the director's hidden rules, but because of the unequal status of the two, plus a little dissatisfaction with reality.
An Panshi looked at Jin Chengxun standing next to him with an apologetic look on his face, and then looked at the five or six men in suits standing opposite him in the single room. Their faces kept changing. Holding his stomach that was aching from being kicked, An Panshi stood up with difficulty. At this moment, the woman named Zhang Ziyan was no longer in the room.
After the two arrived at the hotel and entered the room, within two minutes, the door was kicked open. The bespectacled man in the lead first played a recording, then took out a digital camera and played a video shot from the bottom up. At this moment, An Panshi knew very well that he had been cheated. The legendary honey trap was just like this, but compared to seeking wealth, the current situation was more complicated.
"Director An, you don't have to look at me. Look at the picture in the camera and you should understand that my position is no different from yours!" Jin Chengxun replied with a wry smile, and that expression was not pretended.
An Panshi has been in this circle for more than 20 years. He has seen and heard too many things. He never expected that such a thing would happen to him. The most troublesome thing is that the group of people in front of him are obviously not ordinary businessmen. Anyone who has anything to do with the underworld is someone that people in the entertainment industry want to avoid as much as possible.
It is certainly possible for gangs to enter the entertainment industry, as long as you operate in a normal way and do not harm the industry, the government will certainly not crack down on you for no reason, unless your power extends its tentacles randomly, such as poaching people randomly, threatening artists to shoot movies, etc. Once exposed, it is the rhythm of seeking death.
However, An Panshi's current situation can only be described in four words - " It's his own fault " Both the video and the recording are fatal to him. Once they are exposed, not only will he be ruined, but it would be even more tragic to get involved in a lawsuit.
"Tell me, what do you want? Money or do you want me to do something?" An Panshi endured the pain and said very bluntly. He had no other choice except to satisfy these people in front of him, but that didn't mean he really had no ideas at all. It's just that he didn't have any good choices now.
Lee Jae-won also put on glasses, a new pair he bought. The first pair of glasses he bought was thrown away after being taken away by Zheng Xiuheng. Lee Jae-won with glasses looked... still like an ordinary passerby.
"Director An is really straightforward. If that's the case, then we won't beat around the bush. It's very simple. According to the agreement between you and President Kim, we will arrange the role that Jang Ziyan deserves, and arrange at least one TV drama with her as the lead and one as the second female lead after this drama is over. We will return all the recordings and videos to Director An!" Li Zaiyuan said according to Zheng Xiuheng's request. He didn't have any idea about Zheng Xiuheng asking him to register an entertainment company. Anyway, as long as he could make money and didn't have to kill people or set fire to people, it didn't matter what he did. It's not bad to follow Zheng Xiuheng now. Just yesterday, he had earned as much money as he had earned in the past seven or eight years.
Although the remaining money went to Zheng Xiuheng, he still believed that Zheng Xiuheng's new bank account would become a company account and the money would be used for business. Now he clearly knew that what Zheng Xiuheng was pursuing was somewhat different from what they were pursuing.
An Panshi was of course angry and furious at the other party's lion's mouth, but what did it matter? When faced with adversity, he would roar hysterically, which was the character template of the villains and extras in TV dramas.
An Panshi gritted his teeth and replied solemnly, "Impossible. I still have some options for the second female lead, but the female lead is not something I can influence. Unless I am the director and screenwriter, I will not have such control. Even for the adapted drama we are filming this time, it is not that easy to get the lead role!"
"So, this requires Director An to work hard, for example, teach our company's Ms. Zhang Ziyan more in this drama. When the TV series is broadcast, she will be popular. Wouldn't it be easy to arrange the following?" At this moment, Li Zaiyuan was very surprised. It was not An Panshi's answer that surprised him, but Zheng Xiuheng guessed An Panshi's reaction. Although Zheng Xiuheng said how to deal with three situations, the most likely situation is the current one.
At this moment, Li Zaiyuan also felt a chill in his heart. Now he clearly understood that Zheng Xiuheng also had his own strengths. Just like Jin Guanglu's ability to read people's expressions and his talent for communication, Zheng Xiuheng was not only good at fighting, but also good at understanding people's hearts.
The 22-year-old Zheng Xiuheng has surpassed his age in both temperament and behavior. The silence of the past two years is only in the eyes of others. The reality is that Zheng Xiuheng has been silently watching everything around him in the past two years, especially the interests of the gangs, which are enough for Zheng Xiuheng to see clearly the extremely complex things such as human nature and human heart.
"If she really has considerable popularity, I can reluctantly agree to your request, but if that's not possible, I also won't be able to arrange for her to play the leading female role. If you must force me to do this, then I have nothing to say, but even if I am ruined, you guys still can't even think about developing in the TV industry!" An Panshi's eyes swept over Kim Seung-hoon, making the president with a side-parted hair feel a little annoyed. It seemed like he hated him.
But what An Panshi said was indeed correct. No matter whether the unspoken rules are moral or not, they are a kind of rules. If you break such rules, you will naturally have to pay a price. Once An Panshi's affairs are exposed, no matter which side is in trouble, both sides will suffer. The only result is that both sides will suffer. If you use a handle well, it can produce positive effects. If you use it badly... it's hard to say.
"Of course, we won't force you. How about this, as I said just now, one leading actress and one supporting actress. If Ms. Jang Ja-yeon doesn't meet the criteria for your help, then the condition will be changed to supporting actress in three dramas. I don't think that's too much, right?" Li Jae-won communicated with An Pan-seok like a businessman, and he didn't get angry because of the words of destroying both sides. At this moment, he kept Zheng Xiuheng's words in mind. This time it was not an instruction, but a warning.
“We are no longer gangsters!”
This is Zheng Xiuheng’s warning, so even if the means don’t look good, you must never cross the line unless it is necessary or in an emergency. These little tricks are nothing in the business world.
So Li Jae-won's attitude was not bad. Of course, Huang Chenghu and others were no longer under his jurisdiction. Now he was determined to get out of that vortex, even if there were some struggles. Zheng Xiuheng's words and way of doing things brought a little light to the smart people and the possibility of getting out of that quagmire.
An Panshi pondered in his mind for a while, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, I hope you can keep your promise!"
Jin Chengxun felt a little relieved when he saw the two parties reached an agreement. An old fox like him knew very well that An Panshi's compromise was only temporary. If the kid surnamed Zheng really developed his own entertainment company, this threat tool might be used against him. Now An Panshi probably hoped that this group of people could really enter this circle. Rather than believing that these people would destroy those things, it would be more effective to wait for them to come to the front and clamp down on each other.
And in the current situation, An Panshi really has no choice.
"Then it's a pleasure to work with you. However, Director An had better not try to cause trouble for Ms. Zhang Ziyan or make things difficult for Ms. Zhang Ziyan in the crew. I hope Director An can handle some things with a fair attitude. This is not a threat, but a sincere warning. I hope I can have the opportunity to work with Director An again in the future. This is my business card. We will not disturb Director An and President Jin from resting. Goodbye!"
Li Zaiyuan waved his hand, and six men in suits followed him and quickly left the room, leaving only two old men, Jin Chengxun and An Panshi. The waiter who passed by looked at the open door and looked at it strangely. When he saw the two old men looking at each other "affectionately"...
"Fuck, what kind of people are they, two old perverts!"
