Chapter 861: Negotiation
After Xie Zhongjun left Chu Canghai's company, he went directly to the detention center, and the news revealed by Chu Canghai aroused his strong interest, he never linked An Chongguang and Chen Yuting together, and he wanted to find out what the relationship between the two was as soon as possible.
Because of the relationship between neighbors, Xie Zhongjun and Chen Yuting are much more familiar, and he directly came to visit on behalf of the old man.
Chen Yuting was much calmer than Xie Zhongjun imagined, calm and calm, and couldn't see her panic.
Xie Zhongjun smiled and said, "Sister Ting, the old man asked me to come and see you." ”
Chen Yuting said indifferently: "Haven't you already severed the relationship between father and son?"
Xie Zhongjun was choked by her words, and coughed dryly: "How can there be an overnight feud between father and son." ”
Chen Yuting said: "It's true, the blood is connected, but you seem to be an adopted son." ”
Xie Zhongjun secretly scolded in his heart, this woman really said which sentence was harsh. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he didn't show it, Xie Zhongjun said: "Sister Ting, I just heard about your family's affairs, what is going on? Is there anything I can help with?"
Chen Yuting said: "You are really an afterthought, you didn't help when I killed someone, and now that everyone is dead, you say help, what do you help?
Xie Zhongjun was so choked that he almost didn't spit out a mouthful of old blood, and held back his anger, after all, he came here today to investigate the situation, and smiled patiently: "Sister Ting, don't make fun of me, I came today because the old man meant, he doesn't believe that you will do such a thing, Sister Ting, tell me the truth, who is the real murderer? Why do you want to defend him?"
Chen Yuting didn't speak, and looked at Xie Zhongjun calmly.
Xie Zhongjun said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, I will definitely try my best to help you, and I will never let you suffer unjustly." ”
Chen Yuting shook her head and said, "I don't need your help, I can solve my own affairs." ”
"According to what I know, you are currently the number one suspect in killing Tong Jianjun. Seeing Chen Yuting's attitude so indifferent, Xie Zhongjun put away his hypocritical face.
Chen Yuting asked rhetorically: "Does it have anything to do with you? Are you a policeman or a lawyer? A businessman with a fat brain who brazenly said that he wanted to help me." ”
Xie Zhongjun said: "Since Sister Ting doesn't appreciate it, forget it." ”
Chen Yuting said: "A person who is so ruthless to his adoptive father, why does he believe that you will help me?"
Xie Zhongjun's face changed, this woman was not as simple as he imagined, he nodded: "Okay, then there is no need for us to talk about it." Huo Ran stood up, but didn't leave immediately, seeing Chen Yuting leave accompanied by the policewoman, he suddenly said: "Don't think I don't know the relationship between you and An Chongguang." ”
Chen Yuting said: "What is the relationship? Do you have a close relationship with Qin Junqing?"
Xie Zhongjun's body froze in place, and a pair of small eyes showed a panicked light, but soon this light turned into a cold murderous intention.
When Xie Zhongjun drove away from the detention center, An Chongguang and Chu Canghai sat in the car and watched from afar.
An Chongguang's expression looked a little disappointed, and he shook his head and said, "It's not him." ”
Chu Canghai nodded, if Xie Zhongjun was behind the layout, then Xie Zhongjun didn't need to come to the detention center at all, Chu Canghai deliberately released the news to him, Xie Zhongjun's purpose was to verify the relationship between Chen Yuting and An Chongguang, so he didn't know about Chen Yuting's affairs at all.
Although it was proved that the mastermind behind this incident was not Xie Zhongjun, An Chongguang's mood became heavier and heavier, and the invisible enemy was terrifying, and he didn't know who he had offended. If it's just a slander and a lie, it's just a lie, but the father-daughter relationship between him and Xiao Jiujiu has been proven.
Chu Canghai said: "Will Chen Yuting tell him about this?"
An Chongguang said: "Sooner or later, she will say that there is no reason not to use such a card in her hand." ”
Chu Canghai said: "What are you going to do?"
An Chongguang said: "What else can I do?"
Chu Canghai saw his hesitation: "In fact, with the power in your hands now, you can completely control it before the matter becomes big." An Chongguang is the director of the Secret Bureau, and he uses this status to put pressure on relevant departments to try to control Chen Yuting in his hands first.
An Chongguang said: "The people behind the layout for 20 years are just to prepare for today, if I do this, I may be in his hands." ”
Chu Canghai said meaningfully: "I've known you for so long, and I've never seen you do things so timidly. ”
An Chongguang nodded with a wry smile and said, "Although I don't know who is planning behind it, this person is really terrifying." ”
Chu Canghai hesitated for a moment, but still said a name he didn't want to mention: "Mr. Yue?"
An Chongguang shook his head and said: "It can't be her, I'm just a puppet to her, there is no need to spend so much energy to deal with me, and there is no need to start the layout from twenty years ago." ”
The two fell silent at the same time, it was not Xie Zhongjun, it was not Mr. Yue, so who could it be? Who had foreseen that An Chongguang would become the mysterious director twenty years ago?
Chu Canghai said: "Xie Zhongjun said that Jianghe will come back before the year. "He brought it up on purpose to set the stage for what was to come.
An Chongguang said: "I am not responsible for this operation, Mr. Yue first separated the academy, and then arranged An Chongguang to be in charge of the field, and I have actually been hollowed out now." Speaking of this, he had a lot of complaints about Chu Canghai for a while, after all, he had something to do with him when he got to where he is today. But I also have a place where I can't live with him, and only interests are eternal in this world.
What about friendship? An Chongguang quietly asked himself in his heart, is there a real friendship between him and Chu Canghai? Whether he admits it or not, Chu Canghai is one of the people who knows him well in the world, and he is the same with him. Over the years, the two have always maintained a relationship of friends, not only because they have the value of using each other, but also because of their similar interests.
There is a balance in everything in the world, and once the balance is broken, if you want to return to the state of balance, you must go through a period of adjustment, and most of you will never be able to restore the balance of the past.
It was himself who was the first to break the balance, if he hadn't sent Chu Jianghe to the deep well to carry out the mission, there would have been no accident last time, and the friendship between them might still be the same as before. An Chongguang remembered Chu Canghai's grief when he learned of Chu Jianghe's death, and only then did he realize that Chu Canghai at that time was like a heart dead, perhaps because he had no children, so he couldn't understand Chu Canghai's grief.
At the beginning, he mistakenly thought that Zhang Chi was his son, and immediately made the decision to let He Donglai go to the Netherworld Ruins to rescue, but now it seems that he is just being used by Chu Wenxi, Xiao Jiujiu! The identification report between him and Xiao Jiujiu is monitored by himself throughout the process, and there is no problem, he has a daughter, and Xiao Jiujiu is his daughter.
Thinking of this, An Chongguang's heart suddenly felt a little strange, closed his eyes and carefully distinguished this feeling, not fear, not anger, but relief, he was thinking, even if it was exposed, it would not be a big deal, An Chongguang realized for the first time that there are things more important than reputation and status in the world.
Chu Canghai looked at this old friend quietly, observed in silence for a long time, and then said, "Are you very scared?"
An Chongguang's eyes were still closed: "Why be afraid?"
Chu Canghai said with a smile: "It's like being escorted to the execution ground, I don't know when the knife will fall on my neck." ”
An Chongguang said: "What do you think I'm thinking?"
"I'm not a roundworm in your stomach. ”
An Chongguang said: "I was thinking about what happened after you learned about the Jianghe plane crash, and you salvaged the crash site for a whole month at any cost. ”
Chu Canghai said: "Looking at me so painful, but you don't tell me the truth, I will remember you for the rest of my life." ”
An Chongguang said: "You love Jianghe so much, why did you send him to the Netherworld Ruins for the second time?"
Chu Canghai put down the chair, crossed his hands behind his head, both of them maintained such a posture, through the panoramic skylight can see the gray sky, remember that once, they also maintained this posture lying on the grassland looking at the night sky, they also found that the night can be seen more clearly than the day.
An Chongguang said: "You can't send your son into danger, unless it is more dangerous to stay than to leave, Brother Canghai, you are also wary of Xie Zhongjun." ”
Chu Canghai did not deny or admit it: "If it were you, what would you do?"
An Chongguang said: "I'm not you, but the problem I am facing now is no smaller than yours, the reason why I persuaded He Donglai to save Zhang Chi last time was because I fell into a trap and mistakenly thought that he was my son." ”
Chu Canghai said: "If it weren't for this, you wouldn't have saved them at all, and you would have left them to fend for themselves in the Netherworld." ”
An Chongguang said: "Actually, over the years, I have always wanted to have a child. As he said this, he felt the mass in his throat melt and his chest feel much more relaxed.
Chu Canghai nodded.
An Chongguang said: "I think what you can do for Jianghe, I can also do it." ”
Chu Canghai said: "You will be ruined." ”
An Chongguang said: "What I'm most worried about now is whether she can withstand such a blow. ”
Chu Canghai knew who An Chongguang was talking about: "Xiao Jiujiu's most trusted person in this world is not you. ”
An Chongguang's smile was a little bitter: "She doesn't even know who I am." Chu Canghai's words are like not saying anything, how can it be himself? He didn't accompany her to grow up, he didn't give her a certain amount of fatherly love, and what qualifications did he have to ask her to trust herself.
Chu Canghai said: "The person she trusts the most is Zhang Chi. ”
An Chongguang opened his eyes suddenly: "Zhang Chi?"
Chu Canghai nodded.
An Chongguang said: "How could it be him? Isn't he already a girlfriend, he ......" Seeing the smile on Chu Canghai's face, he realized that he had actually lost his temper.
Chu Canghai said: "Why didn't I find out that you are actually a daughter slave?"
An Chongguang couldn't help but laugh and said: "I just think that kid is too careful, even if I don't have this relationship with Xiao Jiujiu, I can't get used to this kind of behavior of stepping on two boats." ”
Chu Canghai said: "You seemed to be ...... when you were young."
An Chongguang said: "I was young and frivolous. ”
Chu Canghai said: "Only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps." ”
An Chongguang secretly wondered in his heart, the question is that Zhang Chi this kid wants to light my daughter's lamp, and suddenly he is a little panicked, should he be lit by this kid?
Chu Canghai said: "It's not your turn to worry about this kind of thing, it's useless for you to worry about it, you are now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and it is difficult to protect yourself, or worry more about your own affairs." ”
Xiao Jiujiu has been staying at her uncle's house for the past two days, and she lives in a simple house, trying to avoid being disturbed by reporters outside. According to Zhang Chi's advice, she did not take the initiative to contact Zhang Chi.
However, what should have happened happened, and the news about her mother's murder began to ferment on the Internet, as Liang Xiuyuan expected, the focus of the news was not on the homicide, but on the relationship between Chen Yuting and Xiao Jiujiu.
Some reporters even dug up Chen Yuting's family history of mental illness.
Although Liang Xiuyuan began to do a series of emergency public relations, but under the wave of public opinion, her countermeasures did not play any role at all, Xiao Jiujiu's many endorsements were withdrawn, although the person involved in the case was her mother Chen Yuting, but just concealing the family medical history was enough for the contracting party to find a reason for the claim.
Although Xiao Jiujiu is popular, she is still a newcomer after all, her endorsement fee is not too high, Liang Xiuyuan can use more influential stars to replace her, and she can minimize the loss, but the loss caused to the movies that have been filmed is unpredictable.
Jincheng Film Company bore the brunt of the sea storm, originally this film had been set in the Lunar New Year file, and now because of Xiao Jiujiu, the company is considering whether to urgently withdraw the file, Zong Baoyuan, the general manager of Jincheng, originally wanted to use this film to fight a beautiful turnaround battle and regain the trust of his brother-in-law Ye Jintang, but it was about to succeed, but there were branches, and the anger in Zong Baoyuan's heart was all aimed at Xiao Jiujiu.
He entrusted Ye Ximei to send lawyer's letters to Liang Xiuyuan and Xiao Jiujiu respectively.
After Ye Ximei learned the news, she contacted Xiao Jiujiu as soon as possible, although she and Xiao Jiujiu are not best friends, but after all, there is Zhang Chi in the middle, and the ugly words must be in front.
Xiao Jiujiu forwarded the lawyer's letter to Zhang Chi.
Zhang Daxian decided to go and meet Ye Ximei before things completely deteriorated.
Zhang Daxian went to Shangjing under the banner of lawyer Xiao Jiujiu to visit Ye Ximei.
Ye Ximei heard that Xiao Jiujiu had sent a lawyer over, and readily agreed to meet and received Zhang Chi in her spacious office.
I haven't seen her for a while, my godsister Ye Ximei is getting more and more plump, Zhang Daxian stared at her towering chest twice, Ye Ximei can have such a figure, he is indispensable, I don't know how their crystallization is, calculate the time, it should still be a fetus.
Ye Ximei said, "Mr. Zhang, right?"
Zhang Chi walked over with a hippie smile and took the initiative to stretch out his hand, Ye Ximei had no interest in shaking hands with him: "Please sit!"
Zhang Chi withdrew his hand and sat down opposite Ye Ximei, the chair was a little short, obviously a head shorter than Ye Ximei, since he was here to negotiate today, he couldn't show weakness in momentum, Zhang Daxian quietly adjusted the seat, raised it a little, and sat down again, Mom!
Ye Ximei said: "Does Lawyer Zhang know what Jincheng means?"
Zhang Chi nodded and said, "I heard what the client said." ”
Ye Ximei said: "Lawyer Zhang should know the details of the contract, right?"
Zhang Chi smiled and said, "I don't know much." ”
Ye Ximei frowned, as Xiao Jiujiu's entrusted lawyer, this person is too disrespectful, what does it mean to not know much? Shouldn't you do your homework before coming here to negotiate? Xiao Jiujiu is also too imprudent, how could he hire such a person to be a lawyer?
Ye Ximei said: "Let me take the liberty of asking, is Mr. Zhang representing Miss Xiao or her brokerage company?"
Zhang Chi said: "I represent Xiao Jiujiu. ”
Ye Ximei said: "Xiao Jiujiu's contract is in the brokerage company, it seems that the legal counsel of the brokerage company should come to talk to me." ”
Zhang Chi said: "Of course, the legal counsel of the brokerage company will only consider the brokerage company, and they will not consider Xiao Jiujiu's interests. ”
Ye Ximei said: "Then Mr. Zhang represents Xiao Jiujiu's interests?"
Zhang Chi smiled: "Even if it is." ”
The more Ye Ximei listened, the more he felt that this guy was out of tune, what do you mean even if it is? This lawyer is too disrespectful.
"Where is Mr. Zhang?"
Zhang Chi took out his newly printed business card and handed it to Ye Ximei, who took it and looked at it: "The senior legal counsel of the New World Group is disrespectful and disrespectful. ”
If this business card is true, it should not be underestimated, and the senior legal counsel hired by New World Group is definitely not an ordinary person, but Ye Ximei has never heard of such a person in the legal community in Beijing.
Zhang Chi said, "Miss Ye, are you planning to sue my client?"
Ye Ximei smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang, it's not that I want to sue Xiao Jiujiu, it's Jincheng Pictures that wants to sue, of course, if you can reach an understanding and get compensation, you can also avoid meeting in court." ”
Zhang Chi said: "Do you have to make a fuss like this?"
Ye Ximei said: "The contract is clearly written in black and white, if the company knew that Xiao Jiujiu had a family history of mental illness from the beginning, it would be impossible for the company to sign a contract with her and let her play the heroine of this big production, she and her agency concealed this matter from the beginning, which had a huge impact on Jincheng, and would suffer great losses because of it." ”
Zhang Chi said: "Wait, it seems that your movie hasn't been released yet, right?
Ye Ximei said: "Although the movie has not been released, Xiao Jiujiu's matter has disrupted the publicity and distribution of the movie, and will even lead to the postponement or even withdrawal of the film originally scheduled to be released in the Lunar New Year, the loss is predictable, does Mr. Zhang know that this sea storm Jincheng has invested 500 million." ”
Zhang Daxian laughed and said: "Miss Ye is really exaggerated, as far as I know, it seems that the total investment is only 250 million, and you will directly double it, the chairman of Jincheng Pictures seems to be your father, right?"
