Chapter 448: Chapter 448 What conditions, you name them!_1
"Miss Shang, I know you’re a big star! To tell the truth, I quite like you as well, and could even consider myself half a fan. But on this matter, I truly don’t have the authority," Zhou Baping spread his hands out and said with a smile.
His attitude remained lukewarm and unmoved.
"But you’ve had us stop work for almost half a day now, and while the time is idle it remains idle, why can’t you let us rush the work? If it’s a matter of money, you can just say it!" Gao Dazhi couldn’t help but raise his voice, saying anxiously.
He was really getting upset.
To him, this TV drama was his blood, sweat, and tears, his child!
Shang Wanwan secretly kicked Gao Dazhi under the table, signaling him to keep calm.
Being anxious wouldn’t solve anything.
"It’s not entirely due to the grand opening," Zhou Baping replied languidly.
"Is it because of the Feng Shui issue you all brought up?" Shang Wanwan asked, "If that’s the case, we’ve already been working for a week, whatever impact there was should have already happened. It seems a little late to bring it up now, don’t you think? You could report back to the company. If they allow us to continue using the site for three days, we’ll pay the site fees in full! At the same time, we can hire a well-known Feng Shui master from the mainland or Hong Kong or Taiwan to ensure there’s no risk to your project! How about that?"
Shang Wanwan’s words allowed Gao Dazhi to let out a breath of relief and also made him feel somewhat embarrassed; he was so concerned that he was losing his composure. This was a big no-no in negotiation!
Fortunately, they had Shang Wanwan there, Miss Wanwan, who stayed calm and clearheaded in the face of danger, a true heroine among women. If she had gone into business instead of the entertainment industry, she most definitely would have been a remarkable figure.
Gao Dazhi secretly gave her a thumbs up with a shimmering gaze as he looked towards Zhou Baping.
This had to be good enough.
"Well..." Zhou Baping thought for a moment and then said with a smile, "Alright then, I’ll give the company a call, let them know, and you two go back first and wait for the news."
Can’t you make the call now?
Gao Dazhi was truly frustrated with Zhou Baping’s steady and unflappable demeanor.
But since they needed help, they couldn’t rush him.
"In that case, please make it quick," Shang Wanwan said with a smile as she stood up.
"Thank you, Manager Zhou!" Gao Dazhi also stood up and sincerely thanked Zhou Baping.
"Of course, of course!" Zhou Baping said with a laugh as he got up to see them out. "I’ll make that call right away and won’t delay a bit."
Shang Wanwan and Gao Dazhi left with their crew, and Zhou Baping saw them to the conference room door. Watching them depart, he turned and went back inside.
"Go, pour me a cup of tea. All this talking has left my throat smoking," Zhou Baping ordered his subordinate.
Once the conference room was empty, he propped his leg up in a relaxed pose and a mocking smile curled at his lips.
"Make a call? Mr. Yin has already calculated all your moves without any omissions and has given instructions," Zhou Baping sneered to himself.
The Mr. Yin he referred to was not Yin Dongfeng but Yin Haoran. He had followed Yin Haoran for many years, showing unwavering loyalty, and was well aware of this Mr. Yin’s way of doing things. Working under Mr. Yin, it was best to be loyal because while it’s easy to get on the boat, it’s hard to get off once you’ve reached a certain rank, and even your family could suffer the consequences.
"A big star? Heh, compared to my own safety, what can I do to help? If I take this issue to Mr. Yin, that’d just be asking for trouble."
Zhou Baping sighed, but then, as if he thought of something, his neck shrunk a little, fear apparent in his eyes, and his smile turned slightly bitter, "That second young master, Yin Donglei, actually dared to issue a fake imperial edict... If I can hide this matter, I will, if not, I can only report it. After all, he can see a German orthopedic surgeon... and I sure don’t have that option!"
As Zhou Baping mumbled to himself alone in the big conference room, Shang Wanwan and Gao Dazhi headed back with their team.
Gao Dazhi couldn’t help but take a deep breath, feeling fairly confident that Shang Wanwan’s conditions were quite reasonable. There should be a way to resolve this!
"Boss Gao, when will Mr. Bai’s people arrive, is it Lin Weiwei?" Shang Wanwan suddenly asked.
Lin Weiwei could represent Bai Xiaosheng and make more decisions on his behalf.
"It should be soon, probably Assistant Lin," Gao Dazhi nodded.
"Once she arrives, let’s come up with a plan. I’m afraid this won’t work out," Shang Wanwan said bluntly, her face finally showing a hint of solemnity.
"That Manager Zhou, wasn’t he supposed to call their company’s senior executives? Maybe the problem will be resolved," Gao Dazhi couldn’t help saying.
"Believe me, there won’t be any progress!" Shang Wanwan shook her head.
"Ah, why?" Gao Dazhi was startled.
Hadn’t the negotiation just been going well? Shang Wanwan had offered generous terms, and the solution seemed very reasonable.
Gao Dazhi even felt that the other party would ultimately agree.
"A woman’s intuition."
Shang Wanwan said only that, shrugged Gao Dazhi off, and strode forward.
In her gaze, there was a fleeting trace of worry.
"Bai Xiaosheng, this time, will you need to step in personally?"
Twenty minutes later, Lin Weiwei and her group arrived, and Shang Wanwan and Gao Dazhi had a brief meeting with them.
After explaining the situation, Shang Wanwan had a private talk with Lin Weiwei, as some speculations were not suitable for everyone to hear, to prevent unnecessary overthinking.
Lin Weiwei nodded subtly and remained composed.
Shang Wanwan thought to herself, "The closer Lin Weiwei gets to Bai Xiaosheng, the more she’s influenced by him. Now, Lin Weiwei gives me the impression more and more like him, with the aura of a great leader. In times of trouble, this kind of attitude is the best at stabilizing people’s hearts."
When the two women came back, Lin Weiwei directly told Gao Dazhi, "Director Gao, contact the project manager and ask him what the result is, I want to meet with him and discuss it further."
Gao Dazhi nodded and made a call to Zhou Baping.
Coming back from the call, Gao Dazhi’s expression was quite grim.
"He said there’s still no reply from above, and asked us to wait," Gao Dazhi couldn’t help but look at Shang Wanwan. Hearing Zhou Baping’s slow and methodical tone, he increasingly felt that what Shang Wanwan had said was true, that the other party was simply stalling for time.
"All right, this time I will go with you, just the two of us to have a talk with him!" Lin Weiwei said firmly.
At this point, bringing more people had become meaningless. Shang Wanwan and Gao Dazhi had done all they could in negotiations. The only thing left was for her to go and increase the stakes by herself and try all possibilities!
"It all depends on what the other party is really after!" Lin Weiwei stated gravely.
Everyone watched full of anticipation as Lin Weiwei and Gao Dazhi left.
It wasn’t until noon that they returned, their faces clouded with dark expressions, making everyone’s hearts sink!
As expected, the deal hadn’t been reached.
This time, even Gao Dazhi remained silent.
"Don’t worry, there’s always a solution to the problem!" Lin Weiwei reassured everyone, then took out her phone and walked to a secluded spot.
"Weiwei, how’s it going?" Bai Xiaosheng’s voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Xiaosheng, the situation is quite tricky!" Lin Weiwei’s voice was serious.
