Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Give Them a Chance!_1

Hearing Xiao Chen’s voice turn cold, Wu Kun’s forehead was dripping with cold sweat, "At least half.

I’ve tried my best to keep the excellent candidates, but those people’s faces really can’t be ignored, otherwise our open audition could not proceed smoothly.

Even the movie couldn’t be filmed."

"Hmph!"

Xiao Chen sneered, "You don’t have to worry about this matter anymore, those fifty who got in through the back door can be directly eliminated.

This kind of unhealthy trend absolutely cannot be allowed to grow."

As he said this, Xiao Chen took out his private mobile phone.

"Nokia?"

Wu Kun was startled.

In this era dominated by smartphones, there was still someone using this kind of phone?

It was even a flip phone.

Xiao Chen looked at Wu Kun.

Wu Kun got the hint and quickly walked to a distance, covering his ears.

Only then did Xiao Chen dial a number above.

"Judge, are you still living comfortably?"

"King Yama!"

On the other end of the phone, a surprised voice came through, "Why do you have time to call me?

Aren’t you busy doting on your wife?"

"Cut the crap, I feel that the atmosphere in Tianhai City is really bad.

I organize an open audition, and yet it has to be predetermined by those people.

If you can’t handle this matter, then I might have to take matters into my own hands."

Xiao Chen said coldly.

"Please, don’t you do that."

The voice on the phone chuckled bitterly, "Consider this me begging you, I’ll arrange it right away!"

After hanging up, Xiao Chen sneered.

If he took action, it would probably not be so peaceful.

"Come over here, Wu Kun!"

Xiao Chen called out, but Wu Kun did not respond.

"This guy is pretty honest."

Xiao Chen smiled, picked up a ball of paper from the table, and flicked it out, hitting Wu Kun’s head.

Wu Kun then hurried over.

"The matter has been resolved."

Xiao Chen said indifferently, "I reckon they will take the initiative to ask you to withdraw the predetermined spots.

Our audition must be conducted according to the principles of fairness and integrity.

If we can’t even do this, how can we talk about making the competitive environment in the whole of Tianhai City open and fair?"

Truth be told, Wu Kun was somewhat incredulous.

Xiao Chen was very powerful and very rich.

But the people in that circle, it’s not about how hard your fist is, nor is it about how much money you have.

Getting those people to withdraw their orders?

That was simply a pipe dream.

Xiao Chen resolved it with just one phone call?

Despite his disbelief, he didn’t dare to say much and could only wait for the phone call.

However, a few minutes later, the phone rang.

Wu Kun saw that it was their direct superior, the leader in charge of social activities.

Although not a very remarkable person, Wu Kun absolutely could not afford to offend him.

Tianhai Entertainment could not afford to either.

If you provoke this kind of person, then just wait to be finished.

Unless you leave Tianhai City.

He picked up the phone and said with a servile smile, "Leader, what can I do for you?

Yes, I have already arranged the candidates, they have entered the final round.

Please do me a favor.

...

What! You’re not fixing the spots anymore? You want me to choose again? Leader, please don’t do this.

Our small company can’t withstand such turmoil, if there’s any way we have offended you, please be merciful!"

Wu Kun was truly scared; the sudden withdrawal of favors was obviously not normal.

He subconsciously thought that he had done something wrong.

"President Wu, you haven’t done anything wrong, it’s my fault, please just do me a favor and cancel the spots I requested.

Let’s pretend this never happened.

"I have a family to take care of, and I haven’t really made things difficult for you all these years."

"You really must do me this kindness."

The voice on the other end of the phone left Wu Kun dumbfounded.

It had always been him asking favors of others, so how could it be that someone was beseeching him, and in such a groveling manner no less?

Suddenly glancing towards Xiao Chen, he understood something.

His tone grew firmer, "All right then, since the leader has spoken, I won’t force it.

Let’s just leave it at that, I’ll switch people in a bit."

These words were actually a probe; he was still pretty nervous, afraid that the other party would get angry.

But what came next from the other end of the line made his eyes widen even further.

"Thank you so much, President Wu, let’s have a meal together when you’re free, my treat!"

Wu Kun was stunned once more.

It was the very first time this had happened—whenever he interacted with these people, he was always the one footing the bill.

Never did others offer to pay.

This was really quite extraordinary.

"Sure, we’ll be in touch when there’s time!"

Wu Kun didn’t want to sour the relationship, so his words were not too harsh, giving enough face to the other party.

After hanging up the phone, he looked at Xiao Chen again.

A single call had made his immediate superior change his mind right away.

And he seemed quite fearful, too.

This Boss Xiao was becoming more and more of an enigma to him.

What kind of person was he, exactly?

Even if he was dense, he knew that this matter had something to do with Xiao Chen.

Just as he was about to ask, the phone rang again.

One after another, the calls came in, all pleading to cancel the predetermined spots.

And they all offered sincere apologies, each one saying they would treat Wu Kun to a meal.

The feeling was as if Wu Kun was their boss.

And they had become his subordinates, reliant on Wu Kun for a meal.

In the end, he became so annoyed that he instructed his secretary to handle it directly and not to transfer the calls to him anymore.

He would have never dared to do this before.

In the past, he would be extremely cautious around these people, afraid of offending them in the slightest.

For the first time in his life, he felt this liberated.

Sitting there, he took a deep breath and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

"Lost your wits?"

Xiao Chen chuckled.

"That’s an understatement."

Wu Kun said with a wry smile, "I’ve been in this business for so many years, but today I’ve really seen the sun rise from the west.

Who on earth are you?

One phone call and those guys were like scared chickens, desperately apologizing and begging for forgiveness.

Frightened that they might cause trouble if they were too slow."

"It’s just me, ’unlike any firework you’ve known!’"

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Alright, just kidding. You don’t need to know who I am.

You just need to understand, if there’s any problem, come straight to me.

These hundred spots in the final round, we have to choose those with good acting skills and professional ethics.

Don’t pick any photoshop freaks.

Fame or no fame doesn’t matter.

With the methods at my disposal, making someone famous is as easy as flipping a hand. Remember, my idea is to create a fair environment for those who are serious about their work."

"Rest assured, I promise to handle it well!"

Wu Kun nodded, his heart still racing.

Xiao Chen was not only wealthy, he was more than just capable in a fight.

His connections were simply terrifying.

The people who had just called, which one of them could not make Tianhai Entertainment tremble with a foot stomp?

Now, however, everything had changed completely.

"I’ll arrange some calls right away, to reach out to those who were eliminated because of the predetermined spots, to give them a chance!" said Wu Kun.

"Hmm."

Xiao Chen nodded in agreement.

He didn’t need to get his hands dirty with these matters; Wu Kun would take care of it.

Wu Kun certainly knew how to handle things properly.
