The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor
Chapter 449 - 449 423 Forcing the Palace

449: Chapter 423: Forcing the Palace 449: Chapter 423: Forcing the Palace “Hey!

What are you doing!

Why did it take so long to open the door!

Were you up to something shady in there?” Shi Qing’er said as she pushed past Liu Hun and strode into the office, thankfully finding nothing amiss.

Liu Hun glanced at Lin Xiaoxiang at the door and quickly signaled to her with his eyes.

Lin Xiaoxiang could tell from Liu Hun’s demeanor that he was up to no good, but since her secret crush had asked, despite feeling somewhat bitter, she immediately said to Shi Qing’er, “Qing’er, there’s still work to do in the garden upstairs.

Let’s focus on the important stuff.”

Shi Qing’er glanced sideways at Liu Hun with a look that said, “I see right through you!” and remarked, “You’d better not be up to no good!

Hmph!

Hand over the blueprint!”

Relieved as if reprieved, Liu Hun immediately handed over the blueprint Shi Qing’er had left behind.

Shi Qing’er, with a haughty flick of her ponytail, took the blueprints and left, pausing to ask Lin Xiaoxiang, “Sister Lin, you said my sister’s not home.

How does that man handle his—well, physical needs?

Actually, my sister…”

Liu Hun was metaphorically bleeding from all orifices by then, appalled that Shi Qing’er could be so indiscreet.

“Fei, who is that girl?

She looks to be in her twenties,” Su Qingya asked, hugging Liu Hun from behind.

“A witch!

Better not to mess with her—she could destroy the world…

my world.

Let’s head to Fifth Layer instead,” Liu Hun told Su Qingya, as he definitely didn’t want Shi Qing’er to see them, knowing her capricious ability to cause trouble was top-notch.

With her desires in tow, Su Qingya reluctantly followed Liu Hun to the Fifth Layer, which had been decorated in a classic style according to her taste.

Finding a spot in the construction that was just about good enough to have a meeting, Liu Hun said to the Captain, “Please try to finish this area as soon as possible; everything else can wait.”

“Okay!

No problem!” the Captain hurriedly nodded.

While Liu Hun was talking to the Captain, Su Qingya’s phone rang.

After a brief conversation, she hung up and told Liu Hun, “My contact has some news.

They think they know what Bai Ge and the others are up to.

I need to go check it out.”

“Alright, good!

Be careful,” Liu Hun nodded, understanding that a powerful woman like Su Qingya certainly had her own informants to aid in monitoring and controlling the Association.

As soon as Su Qingya left, Liu Hun picked up his phone and called Jia Tianhao.

He hadn’t forgotten that Jia Tianhao still had many interesting video disks in his possession, and it was time to use them.

A week later, the expanded Council meeting of the Huaxia Music Producers Association was held on Fifth Layer in the South City commercial district building.

Orchestrated by some with ulterior motives, it had attracted numerous media reporters, big and small, creating an unprecedented spectacle.

It not only made the unknowing musicians feel proud but also brought the Association into the limelight, moving it to the center of media attention.

Su Qingya, who had been making a fortune quietly, saw her plans foiled, but Liu Hun’s plan had moved a step closer.

Today, Liu Hun had deliberately chosen a Chrysler business car to travel incognito and avoid media scrutiny.

Su Qingya, sitting beside Liu Hun with her eyebrows furrowed, coldly said, “Hmph!

These clueless fools now dare to challenge us!

I never expected Bai Ge to gather famous musicians from various provinces as representatives and hype up this nonsense conference in the media!

Xin’er is indeed useless!

Couldn’t get any reliable information!

But…

fortunately, I have you!” Su Qingya said, looking dependently at Liu Hun, feeling that this man was always someone she could rely on.

“It’s a smart move, involving the media to hype up our Association’s name.

As long as they succeed in ousting me, their backers will have to surface.

However!

I won’t let them succeed.

All they’re doing is providing free publicity, pushing the Association towards the direction we want,” Liu Hun said calmly to Su Qingya, having already made comprehensive arrangements.

“Mhm!” Su Qingya nodded, hoping she could continue to wield power and derive benefits from the Association.

Upon reaching the commercial district of South City, they discovered that, indeed, many reporters were already swarming the place, though security was maintaining order, and the area wasn’t too chaotic.

Seeing the crowd, Liu Hun realized that if he went out there, it would take him at least ten to twenty minutes to get up to Fifth Layer, so he and Su Qingya took the private VIP elevator instead.

Fifth Layer was still under renovation, but thanks to the construction team’s overtime work, they had managed to prepare an area suitable for hosting.

As soon as Liu Hun and Su Qingya stepped out of the elevator, a group of reporters who were interviewing others immediately swarmed them.

“Liu Manager!

I heard you’re the president of this Association, is that right?” a reporter rushed over and asked Liu Hun.

“Yes!

I indeed am the president of this Association,” Liu Hun nodded and replied.

“Liu Manager is truly capable!

What do you expect for the Association, and what is the purpose of this meeting?” another reporter came up and asked.

“As the president of the association, I naturally hope for the association to continually improve and further promote the development of Huaxia’s music.

As for the purpose of this meeting… it is, of course, also for the better development of the association,” Liu Hun continued to respond.

“May I ask President Liu, why is the association being heavily publicized this time when it received little media attention before?”

Initially, Liu Hun wanted to handle matters privately and use his absolute support in the Council to eliminate some people, but a series of events unfolded before he could act, leading these individuals to start causing trouble.

“I believe every song, every piece of music, is the hard work of a musician.

They deserve recognition and attention, they are the unsung heroes!

Please, take your seats!” he responded.

After answering the third question, Liu Hun gestured for the gathered media to sit down as security quickly barred the reporters from proceeding further behind him.

“There are quite a few people here today!

It seems they came prepared!” Su Qingya noted as she observed the dozens of people in attendance, surprised that Bai Ge and Chen Sike had managed to contact so many people without her knowledge.

Scanning the room, Liu Hun saw all the Council members except for Ou Ye, who had been dealt with by Tianhua, and many others he didn’t recognize.

It seemed that the two had really gone to great lengths!

“President Liu!

Secretary Su!

You two have finally arrived!

Let me introduce you,” Chen Sike took the initiative as if he were the host of the association, “This is Hei Mi, a famed music producer from Shu Province… and this is Xiang Jun, a renowned music producer from Xiang Province…”

As this round of introductions progressed, Liu Hun realized that these people from all over Huaxia were almost half members of the Musical Mutual Assistance Association that Chen Sike organized.

If it came to a vote, with these people and those Bai Ge had influenced, the presidency might very well change hands!

Once everyone had arrived, Chen Sike spoke first, “Welcome, friends from all corners of the country.

You are not only members of the association but its masters!

There are several purposes for gathering everyone here today!

First: I hope the media from all over the country’s music circles can get to know us, to recognize us!

We have contributions!

We have achievements!

We deserve respect and fame!”

People around nodded in agreement, quite approving of Chen Sike’s words.

Seeing the reactions of the people, Chen Sike was pleased.

His goal was to bring down Liu Hun and take over the presidency of the association.

“Second: It’s also to let everyone get to know each other!

I think our association is too loosely organized, our contributions are significant, but our presence is not strong, we don’t feel the power of the organization!”

“Exactly, even our Musical Mutual Assistance Association can organize a gathering for a meal or something!” one person commented from below.

“Musical Mutual Assistance Association?

I haven’t heard of it,” another inquired.

The first speaker explained, “Members of this association are all from the same area, Chen as president got us connected, allowing us to interact and help each other, it’s quite good.”

“It sounds fine, but has it really helped you with anything?” the questioner retorted.

“Well… not exactly, but it’s certainly better than a loosely organized association of music producers that’s so disorganized it can’t even find the agency.

I heard that the association recommends producers and songwriters to the three major entertainment giants, but I’ve only ever heard of it!

It’s never been my turn.”

“…”

After the two finished speaking, Chen Sike continued, “Third: I think our association needs a comprehensive reform.

We can’t continue to use the same old methods and rules!”

As soon as Chen Sike finished, his ulterior motives were clear to everyone present, and the reporters blocked by security immediately started murmuring amongst themselves.

“Chen Sike is clearly trying to usurp power!

Liu Hun, as president, hasn’t even spoken, and he’s already calling the shots!”

“Does this association really have its perks?

Why hadn’t I heard much about it before, but now there’s such a big fuss to take over?”

“You have no idea.

There’s a lot going on here.

This association acts as a middleman, many useful and inexpensive musicians are recommended by this association!

Think there’s no big profit involved?”

“Now that troublemaker Chen Sike has brought it to light, it remains to be seen how Liu Hun will handle this.”

“…”

After the surrounding murmurs subsided, Liu Hun took up Chen Sike’s line, “Producer Chen has said a lot, and that’s also why we’ve convened this meeting today.

However… I wonder if Producer Chen has any specific implementation methods?”

Everyone, including Su Qingya, did not expect Liu Hun not only to refrain from harshly reprimanding Chen Sike to protect his own interests but rather seemed to aid him by turning the topic back to him.

You reckless fool!

Did you think because you were arrogant the other day, you can continue that today?!

Hmph!

I’ll make you cry!

Chen Sike secretly cursed in his heart, then addressed the crowd, “As I’ve already mentioned, all of you are the masters of this association.

Does anyone have any good suggestions?”
