An entire afternoon passed, and a notice exploded on Weibo.
"Who is Zhou Hui? Can you stop trying to link yourselves with our Sister Wang Qing? Please stop. Pay more attention to our sister's new endorsement. A promotional video will be officially announced at 1 PM. Thank you."
"Endorsement video? Your precious sister is about to break the law. What an idiot. I've seen it clearly now. Fan circles are truly outrageous."
"Are you crazy? Slandering our sister, saying she's breaking the law. Please provide evidence. Thank you, otherwise, we'll sue you for defamation."
"Oh, you're so scared. Then hurry up and let Wang Qing's studio sue me. I'll be waiting at home."
Soon.
The product endorsement that Wang Qing had announced not long ago was immediately followed by an announcement on Weibo stating that due to Wang Qing's personal reasons, the group had decided to terminate their cooperation with Ms. Wang Qing.
The internet once again erupted in an uproar.
Suddenly, negative news about Wang Qing flooded the internet.
Fenghe Media.
Publicity Department.
The staff were overwhelmed, with no mood to eavesdrop.
"What's going on?"
"Manager Xu." The director's face was pale. "The negative news about Wang Qing, I'm afraid we won't be able to suppress it."
The entertainment industry is often a case of kicking someone when they're down. Moreover, Wang Qing, relying on her marriage into the Xu family, had always acted arrogantly in the industry. If it weren't for Fenghe Media's formidable backing, Wang Qing would have suffered countless misfortunes.
"Have you found out what happened? How did the Zhou Hui incident break out?" Xu Jiajia asked with a dark expression.
"Many forces are involved," the director of the publicity department said with a headache. "And they are all powers we cannot afford to offend."
Fenghe Media might be a giant in the entertainment industry, but when compared to other corporations, it was insignificant.
"For example." Xu Jiajia gritted her teeth and asked.
"Wen Corporation, and even Cui Corporation."
"Cui?"
If it were Wen Corporation, she could somewhat understand. Wen Corporation was currently involved in some entertainment investments, and with that b*tch Fang Miaomiao, it was normal for Wen Corporation to target Wang Qing.
But why would Cui Corporation also get involved? Cui Corporation, as a listed company in high-tech products, had never been involved in anything related to entertainment. Their company's endorsements were always with ordinary people, or they didn't use endorsers at all.
How could this be…
"Could it be Cui Mantong?" the director asked tentatively.
Xu Jiajia's head shot up, and she looked at the timid director. "Did Wang Qing make you do something for her again?"
The director hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and quickly said, "Not long ago, she made us hire trolls to smear Cui Mantong."
Xu Jiajia could no longer contain herself and slammed the documents on her desk onto the floor. After a long while, she looked up at the trembling director. "How many times have I told you, no matter what Wang Qing asks you to do, you must report to me. Are you just ignoring my words?"
"I went to your office that day, but you weren't there. Then Young Master Xu said…"
"Do you not know the intelligence of Xu Wuyou?"
The director's face instantly crumpled. "I had no choice. You know, I can't refuse Young Master Xu. My whole family is waiting for me to provide for them. I didn't want to do it."
Xu Jiajia took a deep breath. "You can go down now. From now on, you must report such matters to me. Do you hear me?"
The director nodded vigorously and backed out of the office.
The office was completely quiet. Only then did Xu Jiajia wearily pick up her phone to answer a call.
"Hello, Mr. Zhang, what can I do for you?"
Xu Jiajia's face darkened. "Mr. Zhang, didn't we already agree on this drama? If you are worried about Wang Qing, we can change the lead actress. You know, our company's artists are all very capable and have good reputations."
"Mr. Zhang, what do you think?"
"Hello? Mr. Zhang?"
Xu Jiajia stared at the hung-up phone, wanting to smash her phone but not daring to.
Wang Qing, oh Wang Qing, are you trying to drag us Fenghe down with you to be buried?
"Hello, Mr. Li, why are you calling? Termination? Why are you terminating with our company?"
"Hello?"
Within half an hour, Xu Jiajia received more than ten calls about contract terminations.
She was so angry that she finally couldn't hold back and smashed her phone.
"What are you doing?"
Someone pushed open the office door and casually walked in.
"How can you ask me what I'm doing?" Seeing her indifferent third brother, Xu Jiajia's anger flared up. "I told you long ago that you should just play around with Wang Qing, but you didn't listen and insisted on marrying her. Now look, her reputation has plummeted to a point where none of us can save it, and we've even offended Wen Corporation and Cui Corporation."
"Sis, don't be so angry. I asked her, and this matter has nothing to do with her. She was just instigated by someone else," Xu Wuyou said indifferently. "Besides, her reputation is ruined, so she can retire. I don't want her working in the entertainment industry anyway. It's even better if you fire her, then I can take her traveling."
"What kind of magic potion has this woman given you?" Xu Jiajia was so angry she wanted to slap Xu Wuyou twice.
If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have taken Wang Qing to the banquet in the first place. Now, she had lost both her troops and her beauty.
Xu Wuyou quickly stepped back. "Sis, you can't hit me, or I'll tell Mom. Besides, you're Wang Qing's agent. Her negative news is your responsibility to handle. You couldn't handle it yourself, and now you're blaming Wang Qing. That's not how a person should be."
"Get out." Hearing this, Xu Jiajia's eyes turned red, and her body trembled.
Xu Wuyou rubbed his nose, not daring to meet Xu Jiajia's eyes. "What I said is the truth. Moreover, this company is mine. As the boss, I say what goes."
"Get out!"
Xu Wuyou dodged the file Xu Jiajia threw at him and said with a grin, "Sis, you just keep working hard. I'm going to be busy for a while, so don't call me."
He just couldn't understand why she was so angry over a mere company. If it went bankrupt, they could just ask Dad for money to rebuild it. Why was Xu Jiajia so furious?
Such a short temper, no wonder Mom and Dad didn't like her.
As for Wang Qing, she had used his weaknesses to force him to marry her. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he had agreed. But this woman was becoming more and more shameless. Should he divorce her?
Forget it, he'd go out and travel first, then come back to figure things out. That crazy woman, if she knew he was considering divorce, she might expose him.
Damn it, this is so annoying. If he had known, he should have gone all the way back then. He wouldn't have caused himself so much trouble and been scolded by Xu Jiajia.
