Chapter 295: A Strategy Burying a Trap (1)

At the Lu Firm building.

In the afternoon.

Zhang Wei and Jiang Xiaolian appeared in the meeting room.

Lu Manman and General Manager Yue Nan were discussing the endors.e.m.e.nt contract.

Jiang Xiaolian was wearing a pair of huge sungla.s.ses. Privately, celebrities looked much skinnier than they did on TV, and she appeared a little too bony. This did not suit the aesthetics of the current generation. Hence, on the whole, Jiang Xiaolian was not considered drop-dead gorgeous. Moreover, she was about forty years old, and there were even some fine wrinkles on her face at a close distance.

Jiang Xiaolian was sobbing as if trying to gain sympathy. Her eyes were swollen from all the crying.

“Things have developed to this point, but we have to admit that our Lu Firm is a company that focuses on profits. Due to Miss Jiang’s news today, our Lu Firm has been implicated as well. According to Article 6 of the contract, if Party B affects Party A’s interests because of personal reasons such as negative news, Party A can unilaterally terminate the endors.e.m.e.nt contract without paying any penalty. At the same time, Party B will compensate Party A according to the negative social effects of Party B’s news,” Yue Nan said confidently.

Jiang Xiaolian cried even harder.

Zhang Wei was now speaking from the point of view of a manager. “We know that Xiaolian’s situation has affected your company to a certain extent. We are willing to terminate our collaboration with your company, but Xiaolian has been the spokesperson for Lu Firm for so many years. No matter what advertis.e.m.e.nt or business activity she does, she always shows up on time and has a high level of cooperation. Please, on account of our years of collaboration, try your best not to pursue Xiaolian’s personal compensation.”

“In this case, we need to go through the board of directors to decide if Miss Jiang will be facing a lawsuit in the end,” Yue Nan said directly.

Jiang Xiaolian kept sobbing, appearing pitiful.

Yue Nan sighed. “No one wants this to happen. We’ve always collaborated well with Miss Jiang, or we wouldn’t have signed the contract for three years. Now that the board of directors has taken this matter seriously, there’s nothing we can do. I hope Miss Jiang is mentally prepared.”

“I… I was just angry because my a.s.sistant did something wrong last time. I usually treat them well, and I don’t even know why I was exposed…” Jiang Xiaolian sobbed.

Lu Manman looked at her, then at Zhang Wei. He was smiling smugly.

It must have felt good.

Lu Manman said, “I asked you to come over to discuss the termination of Miss Jiang’s contract. As for whether you need to compensate, we will inform you later. Also, can you ask Miss Jiang to excuse herself for a while? We have some private matters to discuss with Mr. Zhang.”

Jiang Xiaolian was stunned. She did not have the right to be so arrogant at this point and could only leave the meeting room quietly.

Lu Manman looked in Jiang Xiaolian’s direction and said directly, “Jiang Xiaolian’s matter has a huge impact on our company. I don’t think I need to say much about it. I’ve thought about it for a long time. Although I’m very disappointed in the artist under you, I still want to continue working with you.”

“Of course.” Zhang Wei hurriedly agreed. “If Lu Firm still trusts us, I’m definitely willing to collaborate with you.”

“But Mr. Zhang, I think that our Lu Firm will feel aggrieved in the face of this matter. Since we’re willing to give you another chance, you should show some sincerity,” Lu Manman said directly. “The artists know the situation very well, and I think you know it better than we do. I think you’ll be more careful if we continue our collaboration.”

“Don’t worry, Director Lu,” Zhang Wei said firmly. “I’m already very satisfied that Lu Firm has given me this opportunity. I have an artist named Jian Tong, and she just so happens to have a bright future ahead of her. Her momentum is definitely stronger than Jiang Xiaolian’s, and she has good qualities in every aspect. There won’t be any negative news, and our company has been very strict with her. If Director Lu can trust me. I can recommend her to you. To thank Lu Firm for their trust, Jian Tong’s endors.e.m.e.nt fee is more than ten million yuan, and we’re willing to collaborate with Lu Firm for eight million yuan.”
