Chapter 394: Monday Morning Quarterbacks
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
Most netizens were shocked by this dramatic turn. Tang Xi didn’t expect Xu Fang could be so shameless! She didn’t deserve Brother Qingyu’s love! Poor Brother Qingyu even lost his life for such a person!
Xu Fang’s fans who were cursing and attacking Tang Xi in her Microblog immediately disappeared. Tang Xi found that some hot comments that attacked her were deleted, and some people even apologized to her in her Microblog, saying that they didn’t know Xu Fang’s true colors before…
Tang Xi was glad to see this dramatic turn. She smiled and published another post: One step at a time, I think this is the only way to achieve success. No one in the world can reach the sky in a single leap, let alone using dirty tricks.
Her post immediately attracted a lot of attention. Many people who were guessing why she and Xu Fang became enemies now understood that they fell out with each other because Xu Fang wanted to get fame and money with dirty approaches, but Tang Xi didn’t like this.
Many netizens said the Empire Entertainment was lucky to terminate the contract with Xu Fang. If it hadn’t terminated the contract, it would be greatly affected by Xu Fang’s scandal…
Seeing that the public opinion had turned out to be in favor of her, Tang Xi smiled, put down her cell phone and began to eat breakfast, saying, “I had thought that the Empire Entertainment might be hurt by this scandal, but it seems that I worried too much.”
At this time, the senior management of the Empire Entertainment was in an uproar. None of them expected that Xu Fang would do such a deed! One minute before the scandal was reported, they still tried to persuade President to renew the contract with Xu Fang, because they thought it would be a great loss for the Empire Entertainment to lose Xu Fang, a very famous star who had many fans in China and enjoyed a promising future. But now the scandal had literally destroyed her career…
One of the directors watched the video with a dark face. “What the hell did Xu Fang do?! I invested in a TV drama for her! How could she do such a thing?!”
“You invested in a TV drama for her?” Another director said hatefully, “To keep her, I used my relations and spent tons of money to get two important roles for her. Now the other party has refused to use her and didn’t return my money back!”
“I think I’m the most miserable one!” Another director said with a trembling voice, “She said she wanted to enter Hollywood and promised me that she would give half of the money she earned to me if she succeeded. I tried my best to contact Hollywood directors for her. Now almost everyone knows that I’m behind her, and I assured everyone that Xu Fang would have a bright future! But what about now? Sh*t, this f*cking bitch put me in such an awkward situation!”
The management members all looked angry and frustrated and Tang Xi’s assistant quietly watched this, pursed her lips and stood up, saying calmly, “Why are you so worried? Xu Fang will be put into jail for sure, but she has savings. You can sue her and ask her to compensate for your loss. In any case, she hasn’t signed with any company and no one will support her in the entertainment industry…”
Everyone else turned their eyes to the assistant. A director stood up and looked at the assistant earnestly as he said, “Assistant Wang, please put in a good word for me in front of President Tang. We were too stupid to see clearly what kind a person Xu Fang is! Fortunately, President Tang insisted on not renewing the contract with Xu Fang and announced that our company had terminated the contract with her. Otherwise, we would have suffered from an even greater loss.”
Assistant Wang raised her eyebrows and looked at the other directors who also nodded and echoed, “Yes, yes, President Tang is so sharp-eyed. Thanks to her, our company survived this scandal. Otherwise, the other employees of our company will also be affected, and perhaps many of them will terminate their contracts with us. We were really short-sighted to try to keep Xu Fang. We’ll call President Tang to apologize later.”
Assistant Wang looked at them and her eyes had a gleam of sarcasm. When she was going to announce that news as asked by President Tang last night, these people threatened her that Tang Xi would definitely regret this decision and they didn’t agree with it! Now merely a few hours later, they had changed their faces! What a bunch of Monday morning quarterbacks!
However, thinking of what Tang Xi told her, she smiled. “President Tang is not only the major shareholder of the Empire Group, but also that of the Empire Entertainment. She said that as a businesswoman, she would never trade at a loss and she was aware of who could stay, who could not. Now it has been proven that she was right about Xu Fang. She hoped that we could unreservedly support any of her decisions in the future.”
As soon as she said this, the directors all nodded hard. “Sure. We all know how capable she is! We’ll certainly fully support any decision of hers in the future.”
“Yes, we have faith in her ability since she has managed to develop the Empire Group to this current scale. We’ll absolutely support our president Tang.”
Assistant Wang smiled. “Good, I’ll let President Tang know. Now I’ll be going.”
On the other side of things, Qin Xinying who was reading the news was furious. She slammed the glass in her hand hard against the floor and her face was all dark. She gnashed her teeth as if she was going to swallow someone alive. She growled, “Rubbish! She is simply a piece of rubbish! She was finished by Tang Xi instead of putting her down!”
Just then, her cell phone rang. She took a look at the call ID only to find this call was from a strange number in Paris. She frowned and picked up the call. “Who is it?”
“Is it Miss Qin Xinying?” A cold voice was heard.
Qin Xinying frowned and suddenly had a sense of foreboding. She pursed her lips and asked, “She is not around. Who is it?”
