However, at this mont, Zhao Dabao looked at the large piles of cash on the table and imdiately started getting so crooked ideas.
These two unimpressive-looking young n in front of didn’t hesitate to take out so much money. That’s enough to prove one thing! These two are incredibly rich! A ager two hundred thousand doesn’t even register to them! In that case, I can’t just let this fat prize that ca knocking on my door get away.
"I’m very sorry," Zhao Dabao said with profound aning, leaning back in his sofa chair and taking a puff of his cigarette. "According to the contract, the penalty for your cousin’s breach is more than just this two hundred thousand!"
Extortion?
Seeing this smug man, Chen Zheng’s brows furrowed slightly.
His original plan was to not get too entangled with this guy. Giving him two hundred thousand was supposed to settle the matter completely. But he hadn’t expected the man to be so audacious.
"Then why don’t you tell us how much the penalty for my cousin needs to be to resolve this matter?" Chen Zheng’s expression remained perfectly calm as he spoke indifferently.
Zhao Feng snorted coldly from the side, also without a word.
Zhao Dabao stroked his chin, pretending to think deeply, before finally speaking, "Your cousin’s fans have already surpassed the hundred-thousand mark! If she doesn’t work with us now, our company will lose at least several million. That’s a significant figure! I think... given how forthcoming you’ve been, a compensation of two million should be enough. I’ll just..."
Zhao Dabao hadn’t finished his sentence when a large hand suddenly grasped his neck and yanked him over from across the office desk.
He had just started to roar with anger when his entire head was pressed against the desktop. Zhao Feng’s eyes flashed with a cold light as he stared at him aningfully.
anwhile, Chen Zheng sat to the side, pretending to clean his ear as if he hadn’t heard clearly. "What did you just say? How much was I supposed to compensate you?"
"You damned bastard, stop putting on an act! Do you have any idea who’s backing ? My Tianxin dia Co., Ltd. is backed by the Starshine Group! If you dare to lay a hand on , you’re making an enemy of the entire Fan Family of Jiangnan!" Zhao Dabao couldn’t help but bellow in rage.
The Fan Family of Jiangnan was one of the well-known four great families. Rumor had it they had deep connections in both legitimate and criminal circles. Their assets were beyond asure, and they were especially famous for their work in the entertainnt industry. It was said that a large portion of the celebrities in Jiangnan were directly promoted by the Fan Family. The power of this family was imnse.
"Fan Family?" Chen Zheng chuckled, completely unfazed. "I don’t care what family you’ve got. You tried to extort , and that just ans it’s your unlucky day. But I can give you a chance now. Terminate the contract with my cousin imdiately, get it signed, and I might consider letting you go! If you continue to be unreasonable, I don’t care who’s backing you. I’ll make your company disappear today!" Chen Zheng’s voice grew ice-cold as he spoke.
"What did you say? You want my company to disappear?"
Although Zhao Feng held Zhao Dabao down on the table, his expression wasn’t panicked; instead, he began to laugh coldly.
"Kid... I think you’ve watched too many movies. Do you really think that in this world, being able to fight ans you can do whatever you want? You even want my company to vanish?
"Please, you’re killing ! A piece of trash like you..."
His words were cut off once more as Zhao Feng casually pulled the cigarette from his mouth and ruthlessly shoved it into his nostril.
Zhao Dabao imdiately let out a series of miserable screams, blood dripping continuously from his nose as his body shook violently.
Zhao Feng casually tossed him onto a nearby chair, then walked to the side and dialed an internal line. "By order of the War God, Tianxin dia Co., Ltd. is to disappear within ten minutes!"
Zhao Dabao clutched his still-bleeding nose, ignoring the pain, a cold smile on his lips.
To him, these two were just a bit better at fighting. Did they really think this was a movie? That they could carve out a world for themselves with just their fists? And make his company disappear in ten minutes? What a joke!
"Go on, keep up the act," Zhao Dabao said with a sneer. "You two might be decent in a movie. How about I sign you as strears? I guarantee I’ll make you famous!"
At the sa ti, he kept his hands hidden under the table and sent a ssage to a friend in the criminal investigation departnt.
Who in this day and age dares to challenge the criminal police? So what if they can fight? Can they beat the cops? Once my friend gets here, these two will be thrown in jail, never to see the light of day again!
Zhao Feng had barely hung up the phone when a frantic knock sounded at the door. A woman who looked like a secretary burst in, her expression full of panic. "Boss Zhao... sothing terrible has happened! Our live-streaming platform has been shut down!"
Zhao Dabao was stunned. "What did you say? Why was it shut down?"
Their company’s live-streaming platform is managed by the Municipal Bureau of Culture. How could it be shut down instantly?
"Boss Zhao, word from the Bureau of Culture is that we were found to have regulatory violations. We’ve been permanently banned, effective imdiately! There’s no way to recover it, no matter what we do!" the secretary said with a long sigh.
"How is this possible?" Zhao Dabao whirled around to look at Chen Zheng.
Damn it! Could this guy really have that much clout? That’s absolutely impossible! To mobilize the Bureau of Culture with a single phone call? Isn’t that a bit too powerful? There must be so other reason. Maybe the platform was shut down because of a problem sowhere else.
"Boss Zhao, we have a huge problem..." Just then, soone from the operations departnt also ran in, looking extrely panicked.
"What else has happened?" Zhao Dabao’s heart began to pound.
"Our business license has been revoked by the Bureau of Industry and Comrce! We’re no longer qualified to operate as a company!"
"This..."
Zhao Dabao was completely numb.
If the platform were shut down, he could just find another one; he’d done it before! But if his business license was revoked, he could never work in this industry again!
"Did... did you two do this?" Cold sweat poured from Zhao Dabao’s forehead. He now realized that he had completely underestimated the power of these two n.
