Just got divorced and immediately got seduced by the stunning senior sister -
Chapter 455: Ban!
Chapter 455: Chapter 455: Ban!
"President Chen, I, I don’t ask for Zhao Corporation to give me another chance to cooperate, but I implore you to look past my faults. Please don’t trouble yourself with someone like me. Someone like me isn’t worth your time and effort to deal with."
Fear had taken hold, and Lin Lanmei was truly frightened now. She had no idea that Chen Wei had such powerful connections.
As the chairman of JM Entertainment, even a top-tier celebrity like Liu Meng had no choice but to obey his orders, let alone a minor second- or third-tier celebrity like herself?
At this moment, Lin Lanmei was actually clearer about one thing than anyone else: that if Chen Wei wanted to ban her and kick her out of the entire entertainment industry, it would probably be easier for him than eating a meal.
For Chen Wei, it would be merely a matter of saying a word.
But for Lin Lanmei, if she were truly banned and tossed out of the entertainment industry, she would lose an annual income of tens of millions, perhaps even over a hundred million!
Lin Lanmei didn’t want to lose all of this. No matter what, even if it meant kneeling before Chen Wei, or even offering her body as an apology, she was willing.
However, would Chen Wei, surrounded by a bevy of beauties, ever spare a glance for someone like Lin Lanmei, with her common, vulgar charms? The powder on her face was probably thicker than the whitewash on the walls.
He immediately ordered the security guards to lift up Lin Lanmei and throw her out of Zhao Corporation’s gates, as if discarding trash.
The crowd hadn’t even had time to react.
"What’s going on? What did that person do?"
"If I’m not mistaken, that should be Lin Lanmei, right? My dad really likes the TV dramas she’s in."
"Lin Lanmei? The big star! How could our company’s security throw her out?"
...
Voices of confusion were incessant; everyone was utterly clueless about the situation.
"Move aside! Let me through! I need to see President Chen!"
The security team of Zhao Corporation naturally wouldn’t allow Lin Lanmei’s attempt to barge in; they stood in a line like a solid wall, completely blocking her path.
"I beg you, let me in. I have to see President Chen. I can’t be banned. If you let me in, I can give each of you ten thousand yuan, how about it?"
Lin Lanmei’s tone had shifted from commanding to pleading.
Truth be told, she never dreamed that one day she would be begging like this, to people in a profession she had always looked down upon.
But at present, Lin Lanmei really had no other choice.
However articulate she was, the security guards didn’t show any intention of responding.
The reason was simple: they were quite sure, if they dared to take Lin Lanmei’s money now, Chen Wei would make them spit out double. No matter how they considered it, it just wasn’t worth it.
They would rather not earn at all than lose money.
"You are ruining me! Do you understand that?" Lin Lanmei hysterically shouted at the group of security guards.
At that moment, her phone suddenly rang. The caller ID indicated it was from someone at her company.
Lin Lanmei’s chairman, her biggest backer.
"What! President Jiang, you must be joking, right? I am the biggest traffic draw for the company. If you ban me, it will definitely cause very negative repercussions and huge losses for the company," Lin Lanmei hoped the other party would think twice before making an impulsive decision.
However, the other party’s response left Lin Lanmei speechless, "Protecting you would probably spell the end for me and the entire company. By giving you up, at least we still have a chance to make a comeback!"
"Hello! President Jiang! President Jiang!"
The other party didn’t give Lin Lanmei a chance to speak. By the time she came up with a response, the line had already been disconnected.
No matter how loudly Lin Lanmei called out, all she got was a busy tone.
Lin Lanmei tried to call the other party again but found out that she had been blacklisted and couldn’t get through...
At that moment, Lin Lanmei was on the brink of collapse.
Seeing the look of despair on her face, someone said, "President Chen? We only have one president with the last name Chen at Zhao Corporation, right?"
"From what she said, it seems like she offended President Chen and got blacklisted?"
"Such a big star? He can blacklist someone just like that?"
Even though it was hard to believe, the reality was right in front of them, and they had no choice but to accept it.
Soon, after finding no hope at all, Lin Lanmei got into her car and drove away, hoping to return to the company to persuade this person called President Jiang not to give up on her and to give her another chance.
After confirming that Lin Lanmei had left, the security guards dispersed and returned to their posts.
Curious gossips gathered around one of them and asked, "Hey! Li, what happened? Wasn’t that the star we brought in for the endorsement commercial? Why was she chased away?"
"You haven’t heard? That woman raised her price at the last minute. She agreed on a price but then demanded a few million more from President Zhao—who would agree to that?" said the security guard.
"Was it President Zhao who took action and blacklisted that greedy woman?" someone else asked.
"No, that’s not right. Just then, President Chen showed up just in time, and not only did he bring in the superstar Liu Meng as a replacement, but through Liu Meng we learned that President Chen is actually the chairman of JM Entertainment. Even a big star like Liu Meng has to obey his orders."
Upon hearing this, everyone was dazzled with admiration.
"Damn! In addition to being a shareholder of Zhao Corporation, he’s also the chairman of JM Entertainment? Are you kidding me?"
"I’ve seen it with my own eyes, could I possibly be lying to you? If you don’t believe it, Presidents Chen and Zhao are still upstairs; you can go ask them yourself."
"Actually, I don’t think he’s lying because Liu Meng, who shouldn’t have been here, really did show up, didn’t she?"
Upon hearing this, everyone stopped arguing and found his words rather convincing.
"Never imagined that President Chen would not only be handsome but also wealthy."
"Such a wealthy aura, it’s like having a gold mine at home! My goodness, so powerful."
"One of the world’s mysteries has to be updated with a new question now: why would President Zhao choose to divorce such an outstanding man as President Chen?"
"Yeah, I have also always wondered about that. If I could have such a powerful and handsome husband, I would never agree to a divorce, even if it killed me."
...
Meanwhile, Chen Wei was completely unaware that he had become a minor celebrity within the company.
Since the issue with the spokesperson was resolved, Chen Wei no longer needed to be busy and could leave the work to others.
He left all the remaining issues to Zhao Xinlian to handle.
Time flew by, and soon it was late at night.
There were still many things uncompleted, so Zhao Xinlian decided to stay overnight at the company.
Seeing Chen Wei get up and leave the office, Zhao Xinlian didn’t say much.
Chen Wei had already done more than enough for Zhao Corporation, and Zhao Xinlian was very grateful to him in her heart.
That’s precisely why Zhao Xinlian couldn’t let Chen Wei down, she had to resolve all the issues and get the Anti-aging Cream on the market as soon as possible!
Honestly, Zhao Xinlian was also looking forward to the commotion the Anti-aging Cream would cause once it hit the market.
