My Son-in-law Is A War God
Chapter 402

Chapter 402: 402

"President Wu, he said he would compensate, absolutely won’t treat Tianhai Entertainment unfairly, nor you."

"Do I look like someone who lacks money?"

Wu Kun muttered under his breath.

He glanced at his watch; indeed, it was getting late, almost time to finish work.

"Alright, you guys tidy up and get ready to leave. I’m going to meet this guy!"

Wu Kun suppressed Wu Pengtian.

He felt it was about time.

After all, he had to finish work and return home, where his wife and child awaited. He couldn’t hang around here forever.

Downstairs,

Wu Kun looked indifferently at Wu Pengtian, who was kneeling on the ground rubbing his knees, and said, "Young Master Wu, do you want me to get you a cushion? It’d be more comfortable to kneel!"

"President Wu! President Wu, my dear grandpa, please spare me this time.

I was foolish, I was out of my mind."

As Wu Pengtian spoke, he also slapped himself on the cheek.

"Yo, what’s this, Young Master Wu? How could you be foolish? Perhaps it’s me who failed to recognize Taishan!" Wu Kun said with a smile.

"Please don’t make fun of me, President Wu."

Wu Pengtian inwardly cursed Wu Kun for showing off, but dared not say anything out of place and could only say with a bitter smile, "President Wu, I truly realize my mistake, please be the bigger person and let this pass, just consider me a fart and let it go."

"What are you saying, Young Master Wu? Get up quickly. Though it’s June and warm, doesn’t the ground disgust you?" Wu Kun said with a smile.

"I’m comfortable kneeling."

Wu Pengtian hurriedly said, "President Wu, my visit this time isn’t just to apologize.

I also want to sponsor your audition event.

Look, I’ve brought my card!"

As he spoke, he hastily pulled out his credit card.

If he could settle things with money, then that would be the luckiest outcome for him.

Otherwise, he was truly doomed.

"Compensation, eh? It’s not impossible, but I’m afraid the expense will be a bit substantial!" Wu Kun said with a smile.

The reason he suppressed Wu Pengtian was partly to maintain Tianhai Entertainment’s and Xiao Chen’s authority.

On the other hand, it was to take this opportunity to extort a sum from the Wu family.

After all, the Wu family had taken quite a bit of money from him before.

So, since the other party was willing to pay, there was no need to remain deadlocked.

If things got stuck on the day of the finals,

"A million?"

Wu Pengtian looked at Wu Kun’s expression and ventured a guess.

"If you think it’s enough, then it is. You don’t have to ask me.

We have to re-select the male and female leads, which isn’t a small expense," Wu Kun said with a cold face.

"Five million, how about five million? That’s all I’ve got!" Wu Pengtian was close to tears.

But Wu Kun looked disdainful, "Young Master Wu, if you don’t have the money, don’t try to play the game.

I remember the last time we wanted to screen a movie in Tianhai City, your father Wu Ming asked me for ten million, didn’t he?

Let’s not talk about the past, you ask your father if such a thing happened."

Ten million!

Wu Pengtian was stunned.

This Wu Kun really knew how to demand an exorbitant price.

But what could he do? For his own sake, and for the Wu Family, he had no choice but to call his father.

Wu Ming was straightforward on the other end.

Spending money to save a life was the most worthwhile deal in the world.

Sometimes, no amount of money could bring back a life.

"You don’t feel uncomfortable about this, do you?"

Seeing an extra ten million in his account, Wu Kun asked with a beaming smile.

"No, of course not! I’m thrilled!"

"Being able to sponsor a big star like Ms. Yang Liying is an honor for our Wu Family!"

Although Wu Pengtian’s words weren’t heartfelt, his happiness was genuine.

Giving away the money felt like removing a tumor from his body—it was so relieving. How could he not be happy?

"Does Young Master Wu have anything else to do?"

Wu Kun asked with a smile.

"No, that’s all, I’m leaving now!"

Wu Pengtian tried to get up from the ground, only to find his knees weak and numb, causing him to fall back down.

Still, he crawled up and hurriedly turned to leave, as if afraid Wu Kun would suddenly change his mind.

He would remember this grudge.

Once he figured out the situation at Tianhai Entertainment, he would retaliate fiercely, against Wu Kun.

Against the person behind Wu Kun.

But not now. Lately, he absolutely couldn’t afford to offend Tianhai Entertainment again.

Otherwise, that would be seeking death.

"Xiao Liu, notify everyone to gather in the hall!"

Wu Kun directed the receptionist.

"Understood!"

The receptionist was a little excited.

From Wu Kun’s demeanor, it was clear he was going to give out company bonuses.

Even if they were to get just one-tenth of that ten million, they would be satisfied.

The company wasn’t large; there were only about a hundred people.

Even if they gave out just one million, that would be nearly ten thousand per person.

This was what many made in two or three months’ salary.

While the receptionist was gathering everyone, Wu Kun called both Yang Liying and Xiao Chen to report on how the large sum of money was managed.

Yang Liying happily agreed to Wu Kun’s way of handling it.

Xiao Chen couldn’t care less: "Don’t bother reporting such trivial matters to me in the future."

Although Xiao Chen said this, Wu Kun felt he should still report.

It was a sign of respect to the Boss.

Not until everyone in the company had assembled did he begin his speech, announcing the entire ten million would be given out as bonuses.

Based on individual performance and achievements, the least anyone received was forty to fifty thousand, and the most one received was over two hundred thousand.

This made everyone in the company ecstatic—each one vowed to work to death just to stay at Tianhai Entertainment.

There was no other company in Tianhai City that treated its employees this well.

"Remember, this is the reward Mr. Xiao has given us, Mr. Xiao is benefactor to us all."

Wu Kun didn’t forget to give credit for the good deed to Xiao Chen.

Because towards Xiao Chen, he truly felt an endless admiration and reverence.

He might never be able to match the godlike Xiao Chen, but he would strive to learn.

Xiao Chen had only been in Tianhai for a day, yet he stirred up chaos in the city.

Just a single phone call punished those who threatened Tianhai Entertainment, those who tried to predetermine supporting and even lead roles.

They were all wailing and filled with regret.

The thing was, these people didn’t even know that they had offended him.

And others, because of Xiao Chen’s arrival, had gotten the opportunities that were rightfully theirs.

Zhao Baoqiang was one of them.

And a girl named Jiang Yingxue was another.

This girl was different from Zhao Baoqiang; she was formally educated and extremely pretty.

Even at the Film University, with its abundance of beauties, she stood out as a school belle.

Yet, just because she refused to accept the unspoken rules, she was blacklisted by a certain big shot.

After becoming famous at sixteen, she couldn’t land any more roles.

This year, she just turned twenty.

Seizing this chance, she wanted to fight for a comeback.

But who would have thought that the big shot, somehow hearing of this, directly called Tianhai Entertainment, threatening to remove Jiang Yingxue’s name.

At that time, Wu Kun had no power to grapple with him, so naturally, he would comply.
