Chapter 1160: Under Someone Else's Roof

Many times, whether a person can speak loudly depends on whether they have the confidence to do so.

Just like now, Wang Zhonglei and Wang Zhongjun knew very well that in front of Zhao Fusheng, they lacked that confidence.

Wang Jinghua's departure would surely cause a huge stir in Huayi. Not to mention, those in the board who coveted the Wang brothers' positions would definitely seize this opportunity to make trouble.

At this moment, they urgently needed Zhao Fusheng's support, after all, the Future Investment Fund held ten percent of Huayi Brothers' shares.

In other words, Zhao Fusheng also had a seat on the board.

However, all along, it was Dong Chenxi who represented Zhao Fusheng as a director. And Dong Chenxi, following Zhao Fusheng's instructions, rarely showed up at Huayi, mostly sending a representative to attend Huayi's board meetings, where they would say little, silently raising their hand or abstaining.

But others might not know, Wang Zhongjun was well aware that Zhao Fusheng had substance in his mind and was clear-headed. Someone who could foresee Wang Jinghua's possible departure from Huayi years ago was definitely not as simple as he appeared.

In Wang Zhongjun's view, no matter what, he could not let Zhao Fusheng be swayed by other shareholders to support them; he had to make Zhao Fusheng support him.

This logic might sound ridiculous, after all, Zhao Fusheng didn't know the other Huayi shareholders, and he was more familiar with the Wang brothers, so logically, he should indeed support them.

But in fact, Wang Zhongjun's thinking was the most correct logic.

Some people always like to take others' kindness for granted, not understanding that others being good to you is a favor, and not being good to you is only natural.

The saying 'all men are brothers' sounds nice, and some people always think they have many brothers, but when trouble comes, they find that those brothers have all gone home.

For example, if Wang Zhongjun didn't offer some tangible benefits to Zhao Fusheng today, why would Zhao Fusheng help him?

After all, the current situation at Huayi was largely the fault of Wang Zhongjun and even Wang Zhonglei as the heads. If they hadn't been lenient and yielding back then, how could Wang Jinghua have grown so powerful?

If you make a mistake, you have to admit it. Stand up straight and take the punishment.

He would reflect and admit his mistakes, but letting go of Huayi's control was something Wang Zhongjun would never agree to. If he could secure Zhao Fusheng's support, combined with his own influence in the company, even if there were criticisms, Wang Zhongjun was confident he could still hold the situation together.

But the prerequisite was that the ten percent shares represented by Zhao Fusheng must support him, giving him an overwhelming advantage on the board.

"I think Huayi and Future Film will have many opportunities for cooperation in the future. We can absolutely form a strategic partnership," Zhao Fusheng remained silent, and Wang Zhongjun was lost in thought. As the lubricant, Wang Zhonglei naturally stepped in to speak on behalf of his brother.

This was the sincerity of the Wang brothers. In fact, they also knew that Zhao Fusheng was more powerful than they thought. He had many businesses under him, and Huayi could only offer these.

Zhao Fusheng smiled slightly upon hearing this, glanced at Wang Zhongjun, and said calmly, "I will call Miss Dong. Rest assured, President Wang, our Future Group has always been steadfast in supporting our partners."

Wang Zhongjun let out a long sigh of relief, knowing that the purpose of his visit today had finally been achieved.

Not far away, Wang Jinghua, who had been watching the exchange between Zhao Fusheng and the Wang brothers, had a slightly grim expression.

Although she didn't know what they were talking about, the fact that Wang Zhongjun had brought all Huayi's artists to the launch ceremony of "A World Without Thieves" against her opposition already made her wary.

What concerned her was not Wang Zhongjun or Wang Zhonglei, but that guy Zhao Fusheng.

Speaking of which, the two had known each other longer than Zhao Fusheng had known the Wang brothers. Back then, Wang Jinghua saw Fan Baobao's potential and proactively signed her while she was still a student, bringing her into Huayi.

If Zhao Fusheng were just a gold medal advertising planner, it wouldn't mean much to Wang Jinghua's current status. After all, Future Advertising was not the largest advertising company in China, only one of the top three in the northern region. In other words, in Wang Jinghua's eyes, a gold medal advertising planner was far inferior to a gold medal agent like herself.

That was also why she later chose to manipulate Fan Baobao.

However, Wang Jinghua never expected that the planner who once told her he could help with advertising resources had now become a billionaire with assets worth a billion.

The transformation of Zhao Fusheng's identity caught Wang Jinghua off guard.

When facing someone stronger than themselves, people usually have two reactions: one is fear, the other is resentment. The latter is an emotion felt toward those slightly stronger, while the former is felt toward those far more powerful.

Now, Wang Jinghua's only hope was that Zhao Fusheng would not cause her trouble.

Although the backer behind her was powerful, Wang Jinghua also did not want to be targeted by someone like Zhao Fusheng.

"What are you thinking about?"

A deep voice sounded beside Wang Jinghua; the only one who could speak to her like that was Chen Dao.

The two were longtime friends with a close personal relationship, and Chen Dao was a star signed under Wang Jinghua's personal management, so there were no taboos between them.

"It seems that Big Boss Wang has probably sought Zhao Fusheng as reinforcement," Wang Jinghua said in a low voice to Chen Dao, not hiding her guess.

Chen Dao chuckled: "That's normal. This Chairman Zhao is rich and capable, and also a warm-hearted person. It would be strange if Boss Wang didn't ask him for help."

"Yes, it seems that even if we leave, it shouldn't have any impact on Huayi," Wang Jinghua said with a slight frown, somewhat dissatisfied.

Originally, she had been full of anticipation about leaving Huayi, because once she left, she would definitely take a large number of stars with her, causing turmoil at Huayi, which would undoubtedly benefit the new company she was joining.

But now that Zhao Fusheng had stepped in, it was likely that the opportunity was lost.

"What to do?" Wang Jinghua muttered to herself after a moment of silence.

Chen Dao did not speak; at this moment, it was not appropriate for him to chime in. Zhao Fusheng had never offended him, and both Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei had treated him with respect. Following Wang Jinghua to leave was out of friendship, but if he gave her advice on how to deal with Huayi and Zhao Fusheng, that would truly be asking for trouble.

Chen Dao was a smart man and would not do such a foolish thing.

Wang Jinghua understood this reasoning as well, and likewise did not ask further, but began to ponder on her own.

But after thinking it over, she ultimately found helplessly that if Zhao Fusheng intervened, there was really nothing she could do.

The reason was simple: Zhao Fusheng was simply too wealthy.

Normal exchanges of interest occur because both parties benefit from mutual cooperation, with one needing the other's help, but Wang Jinghua had to admit that she was of no benefit to Zhao Fusheng.

To be precise, the help she could offer him, Zhao Fusheng could also obtain from others.

And what Zhao Fusheng possessed was something she was utterly unable to provide.

Thinking of this, Wang Jinghua showed a wry smile and shook her head helplessly. Some things were beyond her control.

"Forget it," Chen Dao finally spoke slowly to Wang Jinghua.

Wang Jinghua was taken aback, then heard Chen Dao say: "A forced melon is not sweet; you don't need to exhaust yourself."

His voice was not loud, but to Wang Jinghua's ears, it was like a striking bell, instantly waking her up.

As Chen Dao said, although she was about to jump to a new company, Wang Jinghua did not need to offend Huayi to the death while also offending someone like Zhao Fusheng.

It is better to make friends than enemies; falling out with a rising super-rich man is not a pleasant thing.
