Chapter 526: Chapter 525: What’s the Background of This Young Man?

"Mr. Zhang, could you give me some face," Lan Zihuang whispered pleadingly, "I’ll ask him to apologize and then pay some money to settle this privately. Do you think that would work?"

"Give you some face?" Mr. Zhang took another look at Lan Zihuang, "Sure, but he must pay, right? You can’t just beat someone for nothing. First the emotional distress compensation, at least two million, right? For the loss of my company’s time, I’m thinking three million. The medical expenses will be less, I’ll take that as half a million. A total of five million five hundred thousand, not a penny less."

Five million five hundred thousand!

The entire crew took a sharp intake of breath!

That was an astronomical figure! How could Wang Hao, just a minor screenwriter, afford that kind of money?!

"Brother Hao, why not just settle this matter with money? If you don’t have enough, I’ve got you covered," Lan Zihuang desperately signaled Wang Hao with her eyes, "At the very least, we need to get past today’s incident."

"Don’t worry," Wang Hao was a few degrees more impressed with Lan Zihuang; she truly was a person worth getting close to. He gently patted Lan Zihuang’s shoulder and then looked at Zhang Xiaodong with a smile, "What if I don’t accept any of it?"

"Don’t accept any?!" When Zhang Xiaodong heard this, his brow immediately furrowed, staring at Wang Hao, he said word by word, "Then you’ll have to face the wrath of the Fang family!"

"You represent the Fang family?"

"Of course," Zhang Xiaodong said proudly: "I’m the one who calls the shots for the entertainment side of the Fang family, my word is the law! I’m telling you, the fact I’m asking you to pay is already giving face to Lan Zihuang, otherwise, you’ll go straight to jail, and this crew will be finished, every person here will become unemployed!"

"Oh?" Wang Hao tilted his head to look at him, sarcastically said, "Did Fang Wenbin know when you were saying all this?"

At those words, Zhang Xiaodong suddenly froze: "Our young master?"

"Yeah," Wang Hao said with a grin, "Do you represent your young master? Does he know when you started making the decisions?"

This time, Zhang Xiaodong hesitated momentarily before looking at Wang Hao: "You know him?"

At this point, everyone on the second floor of the bar looked at each other... What was happening?! The script’s plot seemed to be taking a strange turn!

Could it be that Wang Hao knew the young master of the Fang family, one of the four major families?

"Mr. Zhang! Mr. Zhang, don’t listen to his nonsense!" Seeing that Mr. Zhang was almost fooled by Wang Hao, Wang Yinghui clung to Zhang Xiaodong’s leg, shouting: "He’s just a minor screenwriter, how could he possibly know people from the four major families! He’s definitely using the young master’s name to scare you!"

This time, Zhang Xiaodong was indeed a bit troubled.

He glanced at Wang Yinghui, then back at Wang Hao, and frowned: "This..."

"So you don’t believe me?" Wang Hao took out his cellphone, unlocked it, and held it in front of Zhang Xiaodong: "I happen to have Fang Wenbin’s number here. Call him. I’d like to hear if he also thinks I’m delaying the Fang family’s business? If he wants me to pay?"

Wang Yinghui roared: "Who are you trying to frighten? If you knew the young master, would you still be here? You’ve certainly found a fake number to show off!"

Zhang Xiaodong also thought that Wang Hao was putting on a brave front, but after only a glance, his face turned white instantly!

"This...this..." Zhang Xiaodong was completely on autopilot as he glanced at the screen, and he froze completely with just one look!

Because on Wang Hao’s phone screen, the mobile number of the Fang family’s young master, Fang Wenbin, was clearly displayed!

He checked the number several times in detail, again and again, and the conclusion he came to was that the number was real!

It might have been all right if it were just the phone number, but crucially, he also saw the names of several other high-profile individuals!

Zhao Zhenhao of the Zhao family! Jiang Feng, who often accompanied Fang Wenbin! Duan Yunyun!

And that wasn’t all; Zhang Xiaodong even saw the name of Ice Princess Bai Yaning!

"What kind of background does this young man have?" Zhang Xiaodong was both surprised and skeptical. A common screenwriter from a film crew knitted to know so many high-profile individuals? It was simply inconceivable!

You see, this mobile number was indeed that of the young master Fang Wenbin, information only insiders would know; outsiders were absolutely out of the loop.

But to say it was just the young master’s number was one thing; the fact that he had so many numbers in his phone...

"Are these real or fake?" Zhang Xiaodong looked at the phone and then at Wang Hao multiple times, his mind incessantly pondering: "It might be possible if there were one or two, but so many... Can this be?"

Of course, the probability of it being possible was difficult to say, as it wasn’t likely for such a young man to have so much clout. But Zhang Xiaodong was an old hand at this, and naturally, he wasn’t going to directly discount the possibility.

"Wow, who knew you would have the young master’s number," Zhang Xiaodong’s face suddenly turned all smiles as he said, "Coincidentally, I have something I want to discuss with the young master. You wouldn’t mind, would you?"

"Feel free," Wang Hao shrugged nonchalantly, "Just use my phone to call; I’m not too worried about a few cents in phone charges."

"That’s good, that’s good,"

Zhang Xiaodong took the phone carefully and dialed the number. As soon as the call connected, the first words that came from the other end completely shocked him.

"Brother Hao, what’s the situation?" Fang Wenbin’s voice came through directly, "Got any good recommendations?"
