Chapter 177 - 172 Nighttime Hotel Conversations
Xiao Wu watched the other person leave, spat a thick glob of phlegm into the trash can, and sat back down, picking up the small bell on the table and shaking it lightly.
A tall, sharply dressed young man in a checkered suit walked in from outside.
"Xiao Liu, did you get all the information on Lan Yening?" Xiao Wu asked in a slow and deliberate tone.
"Boss, I got it. But don’t forget, tomorrow you’re scheduled to record that ’actor’ variety show," Xiao Liu reminded.
"Alright, I know. I’ll look it over in the car tomorrow. That trashy show—if it weren’t for networking with some big-name directors and promoting the upcoming film, I wouldn’t bother attending. As a director, one should focus on the art and humanity," Xiao Wu said seriously.
Xiao Liu knew better than to interject at this moment; Xiao Wu was deeply immersed in his own world.
"Look at this, the show’s production team gathers a bunch of what? Talentless pretty boys, combined with a few washed-up has-beens with zero market value—none of them worth anything. Huaxia’s film industry, this is how it goes to ruin," Xiao Wu sneered.
After Xiao Wu finished, Xiao Liu kept his face unchanged and said, "Boss, the Wu family film company scheduled a meeting with you the day after tomorrow."
Xiao Wu’s expression shifted instantly upon hearing this, and he replied, "Tell them that I’ll handle this matter personally. They don’t need to teach me a lesson."
"Understood."
"Wait, what time and where is the meeting the day after tomorrow?"
Calming himself down, Xiao Wu reflected for a moment and decided to meet Wu Jingxiang. He was already aware that the situation had escalated beyond control. Without robust support, there was no way to navigate through the crisis.
