Chapter 389 Yang Rou's Secret
Hearing Lu Man's words, Chen Yan was stunned for a moment.
An iceberg female president?
In the entire group, Yang Rou is the only one who can be called this.
What happened to her back then?
Chen Yan couldn't help but ask, "What happened back then?"
Lu Man got up from Chen Yan and said, "It was the conflict between her and the Xu brothers back then."
"Aren't you curious why her hatred is greater than ours and why she wants to crush the Xu brothers?"
Chen Yan pondered for a moment.
Actually...he is really not a gossipy person.
However, Yang Rou is the helmsman of the entire film and television company, and is also the executor of the [Chaoyang Project] and the plan to snipe the Xu brothers.
Chen Yan couldn't help but be cautious.
So, thinking of this, he nodded and said, "Listen. Tell me about it."
When Lu Man heard that Chen Yan wanted to listen to his story, he regained his composure.
She walked to the water dispenser, bent down, took a glass of water, and then said seriously while drinking, "I have participated in many programs recently and met many people."
"Plus, the Chaoyang Project is too attractive to practitioners in the industry. So one person, in order to curry my favor and participate in our project, told me some of Yang Rou's secrets."
She said, "That person said that Yang Rou joined Xu Brothers Film not long after she graduated."
"At that time, Xu Brothers Pictures was not very large. She was one of the earliest veterans."
"She started as a small producer and gradually became a well-known producer in the industry. She has produced many successful projects. She also made great contributions to the Xu brothers."
"She even got some shares in the company after becoming the director of the production department because she did such an outstanding job."
Hearing Lu Man's words, Chen Yan looked at her with some surprise.
Did Yang Rou join Xu Brothers Pictures before?
Have you even received dry shares?
Chen Yan really didn't know about this. After all, even Yang Rou's resume didn't mention this part of her work experience.
Seeing that Chen Yan had taken it in, Lu Man continued, "Later, Xu Brothers Pictures grew bigger and bigger. In order to grow faster, they needed financing. So they went around looking for investors."
"As a result, after searching for a long time, we found it on Zhao Qingtian."
"Zhao Qingtian had not yet become the patriarch of the Zhao family. He was just the most qualified young talent in the southern branch to compete for the title of 'branch patriarch'. The sector he was in charge of at the time was the pan-entertainment industry. It just happened to fit in with Xu Brothers Pictures."
"So, the two sides had a very pleasant conversation and almost decided to cooperate."
"Who knows, something happened later."
Chen Yan couldn't help but ask, "Things? What's the matter?"
Lu Man took a sip of water and said, "Don't worry. I'll talk slowly."
She paused, then continued, "Because if you want to invest, you have to do due diligence. So Zhao Qingtian personally led a team to inspect the project that the Xu brothers were working on."
"Yang Rou is the producer of that project. And because she is a senior executive of the company, she should entertain Zhao Qingtian."
"In the end, who knew that Zhao Qingtian got drunk that day and became beastly, and took her..."
"It was indecent."
Chen Yan's pupils shrank slightly, "Molested?"
Lu Man nodded and said, "According to that person, this is what the rumor was back then."
"He also said that the incident was only spread very narrowly at the time, and there were no witnesses. We can only judge based on some news from that year."
"It should be that Zhao Qingtian was drunk and Yang Rou politely sent him back to the hotel. But after arriving at the hotel, Zhao Qingtian forcibly dragged Yang Rou to the hotel room and molested her."
Chen Yan: …
His brows furrowed deeply.
Lu Man continued,
"That person said that after this incident, because the Xu brothers still wanted the Zhao Group's investment, they chose to keep quiet and cover up the scandal."
"So, I kept persuading Yang Rou to swallow her anger and not pursue the matter."
"Yang Rou also agreed."
"As a result, after the southern branch of the Zhao family learned about this, they directly stopped the project and terminated the cooperation with Xu Brothers Film. In addition, they confined Zhao Qingtian to his home and prohibited him from working in the entertainment industry again."
This sudden turn of events made Chen Yan's mouth drop open. "Why is this happening?"
Lu Man also shook his head in confusion, "I don't know. That person didn't know why it happened. But he dared to guarantee that it must have been the Zhao family that terminated the cooperation first."
Chen Yan frowned deeper and deeper, and asked, "Then...what happened next?"
Lu Man, "Later?"
Lu Man said with a complicated expression, "Later...Originally, this matter should have ended here."
"As a result, who would have thought that a month later, Yang Rou was found to be pregnant."
“Everyone panicked.”
"Someone from the Zhao family branch came and forced Yang Rou to abort the baby. Yang Rou refused."
"In order to curry favor with the Zhao family, the Xu brothers threatened to fire Yang Rou and take back her shares, forcing her to abort the child."
"In the end, under pressure from many parties, Yang Rou withdrew from Xu Brothers Pictures with nothing, returned her shares, and then gave birth to the child incognito."
At this point, Lu Man looked at Chen Yan deeply and said, "It's Yang Nuannuan."
Chen Yan's brows were furrowed into a "川" shape.
Lu Man continued, "Later, the Zhao family searched for Yang Rou in many ways, but couldn't find her. So they had to issue a gag order on the matter. They also paid a large sum of hush money to the relevant personnel and signed a confidentiality agreement, prohibiting them from spreading the matter."
"Those who knew about this incident didn't tell anyone because they got some benefits."
"Later, these people gradually developed into senior executives in the industry. Xu Brothers Pictures became one of the top three companies in the industry. Yang Rou also made a comeback and became a big boss in the circle. Zhao Qingtian even became the helmsman of the Zhao family. Therefore, this matter became even more of a secret."
"All the people working in the film and television industry knew that Yang Rou and the Xu brothers had a conflict, but they didn't know what the conflict was."
"And the reason why the Xu brothers developed so fast in those years was because they benefited from this matter."
"It is said that because of their attitude on this matter, the Zhao family did not directly invest in Xu Brothers Pictures, but in order to repay the favor, they still introduced them to other large capital parties."
"Thanks to the Zhao family's connections, the big investor provided a lot of support to the Xu brothers. This is the key to the rapid development of the Xu brothers in recent years."
After listening to Lu Man's story, Chen Yan pondered for a while and asked, "Is the person who told you this story trustworthy?"
Lu Man thought for a moment and shook his head. "The person who informed me was the one who was the least successful among the group. He wanted to participate in the Chaoyang Project, so he told me about this as a token of his loyalty, hoping to get a chance."
"But, if you want to know whether this person is trustworthy or not..."
"I think it might not be worth it..."
After listening to this, Chen Yan nodded silently.
Then he thought about it for a moment and said, "We can just believe in this matter 40% to 50%. "
"There must be some details or secrets that he doesn't know about."
"However, we should also be honest in our work. Since this is a deal, let's give him a chance and let him try participating in the Chaoyang Project. If he works, use him. If not, give him a hush money and let him go."
"besides……"
Chen Yan paused, "For this kind of person, it's enough to cooperate once. It can be regarded as fulfilling your promise."
"From now on, don't cooperate."
After hearing Chen Yan's evaluation, Lu Man nodded lightly.
After talking about this, the two began to talk about the [Chaoyang Plan]. [Chaoyang Plan] is Chen Yan's most important strategic plan in the future. It is also an opportunity for Chen Yan to develop rapidly.
The reason why he attaches so much importance to this opportunity is because of the "Cloud Girlfriend Game".
The film and television industry is Lu Man’s career line, so for every 100 million yuan invested by Chen Yan, he can get a cashback of 200 million yuan.
If he can really invest 10 billion in Lu Man’s film and television company, then he can get a cashback of 20 billion!
Moreover, you have to know that the 10 billion yuan invested will probably not be lost with [Xiao Ha's Polaroid Camera]. It may even bring back several times the profit.
Therefore, once the Chaoyang Plan is accomplished, Chen Yan's assets will directly grow exponentially.
This is a crucial move by Chen Yan.
As long as this move works, he can start this money-burning model with other girlfriends he supports.
So, after talking about the secrets of the past, Chen Yan and Lu Man confirmed the details of the press conference. It was not until Lu Man felt dizzy and begged for mercy that Chen Yan let her go...
So, after the two of them agreed to meet at the villa in the evening, Lu Man hurriedly slipped away with his head in his hands.
It looked as if he was saying, "Master, please stop reciting. Master, please stop reciting..."
After Lu Man left, Chen Yan tidied up the room, sat back in his boss chair, and began to think about Yang Rou again.
Perhaps because of the closeness of the young woman's identity as the author, in Chen Yan's mind, the image of Yang Rou is more "flesh and blood" than before.
Therefore, Chen Yan paid more attention to this beautiful female president under him.
However, it was precisely because of this that when he reviewed the entire incident that Lu Man had just described, he always felt that there were some illogical things.
