Urgent board of directors meeting, Lin Muyan sat indifferently in the main seat, while several directors in front of her argued heatedly.
"I said from the beginning that this drama shouldn't be made, we don't have the capability to produce it. Now look, the investors are threatening to pull out, six billion! How are we supposed to handle this?" Director Wang, one of the company's senior members dedicated to making things difficult for Lin Muyan.
Lin Muyan When he first arrived at peak, because of his private relationship with the former CEO, he made a few remarks that made him hold a grudge. He always had to make her feel uncomfortable in order to be satisfied. It seems that only by doing this can he show the value of being a company director.
"The crew is pressing for payment of 600 million as start-up capital. The company is in need of money. Are you asking us to deplete the company's finances to cover the hole you created?" Lin Muyan twirled the pen, looking at him with a deep gaze. Director Wang nervously pursed his lips, then immediately put on a stern face, "Did I say something wrong? Since you joined peak, there hasn't been a peaceful day. Look at what happened with Ling Xiao before, and now you've caused a 6 billion deficit. How can we trust you to continue as the CEO?"
Lin Muyan sneered.
When she took office, she heard privately that the position of CEO was originally supposed to be taken by Director Wang, but because of her bet with the old man, the position of CEO was parachuted onto her head.
He resents himself, but it's not entirely without reason.
However, wanting to be so open and blatant about it, wanting to drive her away, is underestimating her too much.
"I have negotiated the filming with each of you. At the beginning, you all signed and agreed to it. Director Wang, I remember you were the first to nod in agreement when you saw the upfront payment from the investors."
She spoke slowly, and every word fell clearly into the ears of everyone present.
"Investors can be found elsewhere, but are you all so lacking in confidence in peak that you have to speak so pessimistically now?"
Director Wang was left red-faced by her retort. He signaled to another director beside him, who immediately stepped forward and reprimanded Lin Muyan.
"It's not that we lack confidence in you. You even rejected the proactive cooperation of Stu Studio. It's clear that you have no business acumen and don't even understand how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. People like you are the ones who truly don't take the company seriously."
This person can also talk. In just a few words, they've elevated Lin Muyan to the opposite of morality, as if she made some outrageous decision for peak. Lin Muyan couldn't help but laugh. Her expression turned cold as she said, "So, are you all here today to negotiate forcing me to step down?"
Director Wang laughed and said, "Lin Zong, you're being too serious. We're also thinking about the company, not wanting mediocre people to lower the company's standards."
This is no different from bluntly saying, "Lin Muyan, you can't control peak. It's better to step down from the CEO position early and leave quickly. What's the difference?
Lin Muyan was extremely angry, but she held back the urge to slam the table, and instead leaned back heavily in her chair, unconsciously arching her back.
She scanned the several troublesome people from the board of directors one by one, feeling the intense pressure building up on her head. The board of directors ended in disarray, and Chairman Wang even forced her to make a pledge. If she couldn't resolve the situation within three days, she would have to resign. Lin Muyan had never felt so frustrated in her life.
Several directors walked past her, not bothering to hide their smugness. It seemed as if they were already certain that, even if Lin Muyan had the ability to reach the sky, she would still be powerless to change the situation. That Wang director was especially detestable, even patting her on the shoulder before leaving. "Mu Yan, don't blame Uncle for not showing you any mercy. This is a company decision, not a matter of personal connections. If she lacks the ability, she is not suitable for the job."
He expressed regret, but his mouth was upturned almost to his eyes. Lin Muyan glanced at him silently, then slyly tripped him with her left foot right before he turned around to show off. "Ouch..."
Director Wang stumbled and fell into dog poop, then turned around angrily and glared at Lin Muyan. Lin Muyan shrugged and laughed in a very ostentatious manner. "Don't try to get close to me, I don't have an uncle like you." She looked Director Wang up and down with a very contemptuous look, then walked away neatly and cleanly.
Her confident and proud demeanor even restored a bit of Shen Yang's spirit, making him think she really had a solution. But as soon as she returned to the office, she became disheartened. This is 600 million! Where could she possibly get it overnight?
The Lin family can afford it, but if she goes to talk to the old man, wouldn't that be admitting defeat? We've endured for so long, let her give up? Don't even think about it! Lin Muyan has been worried all afternoon, even the idea of going to talk to Investors again has come to mind.
Who would have expected that these Investors are so ruthless? She hasn't even figured out a remedy on her side, and they've already sent a lawyer over. This lawyer looks like a seasoned pro, as soon as they met, he handed over the termination agreement, clearly intending to provoke Lin Muyan.
"This is my client's demand, in addition to 600 million, there is also her mental damages fee. This is the termination agreement, with detailed explanations inside, you can take a look."
Lin Muyan She furrowed her brows and snatched the termination letter from the table, only glanced at it before slamming it shut. "This is slander!" she declared firmly. The lawyer, however, didn't even bat an eyelid, and with an unchanged expression, threw out a few photos from his bag.
"Is it a rock hammer or slander, Lin Zong, you better take a look for yourself."
Several scattered photos, showing a couple from different angles.
The man is particularly clear, while the woman is slightly blurry, but anyone can see that they have a close relationship, even to the point of being intimate enough to help each other tuck loose hair behind the ear and lean foreheads together.
Lin Muyan looks very tense.
Cheng Xin talked about a romantic relationship?
When did this happen?
"At first, your official promise was to ensure that the artist would not be allowed to have a romantic relationship within five years of debut. Now, just a year and a half later, this kind of thing has happened. As a fan of Cheng Xin, I am extremely angry."
Lin Muyan thought this was all, but unexpectedly the other party's lawyer threw out another copy of the agreement.
"Your company not only manages artists poorly but also has long been engaging in unreasonable exploitation of company artists. These notices are enough to show that Peak Entertainment is simply not suitable for the development of artists. Such a company has no reason to exist, let alone talk about investment transformation."
Lin Muyan When I opened the copy of the agreement, there were all sorts of overbearing clauses inside, but this clearly wasn't signed by peak. Even the previous agreements with peak didn't have such harsh terms. She coldly pushed back the copy of the agreement, "Which artist is this agreement for? We at peak have never signed such an agreement with any artist."
"Alas, at this point, Lin Zong, would it be a little too late for you to feign innocence?" The opposing lawyer was unimpressed, "I can show you these to indicate that these are just the tip of the iceberg. As the plaintiff, I don't want to make things difficult for you too much. Just return the full amount, otherwise, if it goes to court, Peak Entertainment will only suffer a devastating blow." Lin Muyan was absolutely certain that this agreement did not come from Peak, but she could not deny that the official seal stamped on the agreement was indeed from her office.
It doesn't make sense.
I can't understand it at all.
The other party is being aggressive and unwilling to give her any space to think.
"Shen Yang, send him away."
Even with Lin Muyan's good temper, she was annoyed by the repeated provocations and had her assistant directly send the person out of the building. She was currently at a loss about the agreement, but the matter in front of her could be resolved first.
Cheng Xin was called up by her agent and didn't know what had happened.
"Who is this girl?" Lin Muyan rubbed her temples in annoyance, and as soon as she spoke, she realized that her tone sounded like a pitiful woman questioning her cheating man.
Cheng Xin seemed to have just finished a dance class, looking like she had just been pulled out of the water, with her bangs still wet. As a new talent being heavily promoted by Peak Entertainment, she indeed had a good look.
At this moment, Lin Muyan sternly questioned him. He looked bewildered as he stared at several photos placed in front of him, casting a suspicious glance at his agent before carefully examining the pictures. Under Lin Muyan's gaze, he nodded and said, "It's me." Lin Muyan's expression darkened even further; this was not the answer she was looking for.
Sure enough, after a few more seconds, his face went through a roller coaster-like change, finally settling on a look of surprise, unable to close his mouth as he repeatedly looked at his agent. "I swear, she's just my cousin! She's really not my girlfriend! Lin Zong, my cousin just came back from abroad recently." Despite his slightly flustered tone, he maintained a calm poker face, appearing particularly composed when not showing any expression.
Cheng Xin I have a bit of a rebellious style, but I've tried to appear more dignified in front of the camera. Now I'm anxious and hoping my agent can speak up for me. The last person called into Lin Zong's office was already kicked out of Peak Entertainment. After hearing his words, Lin Muyan had an even bigger headache.
She hinted and had her agent verify to confirm that the girl in the photo was indeed her real cousin, before finally heaving a sigh of relief.
So, it was all just a misunderstanding after all?
Cheng Xin hadn't seen much of Lin Muyan before, but upon seeing the fiery beauty as the boss, he was quite cautious and didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
Paused for a moment, then sighed as if expressing a complaint.
"Nowadays, are paparazzi really this powerful? I picked her up from the plane for less than two minutes and got caught on camera. Does this mean I'm about to become famous?"
Lin Muyan ignored his self-absorbed second half of the sentence, but the timing at the beginning made her feel strange.
The photo came suddenly, and with such a tight schedule. It just had to be seen by Sister Wang the day before the shoot, as if deliberately pushing her into a corner she couldn't escape from.
She hasn't offended anyone recently, has she?
Cheng Xin was driven away, and Lin Muyan tried to have someone contact the Investors to explain the situation, but they were resolute and wouldn't budge on the withdrawal of funds.
